soldier throughout the war between
the states. As a member of the
State Legislature from Johnston
county. he introduced a measure pro-
viding for the erection of statue
by the State. Failing to elicit the
necessary support. he gave $4,000.
and accepted plans for the monu-
ment before his death in October.
1912. The monument stands on the
south side of Capitol Square. midway
between Fayetteville and Salisbury
streets. On the southern side, IN
has relief, is grandmother in Ii
sitting position, with a book in her

Club the good things provided last
night on the occasion of the first of
series Of beefsteak dinners to be given
during the season. They were "emer-
gency rations," judging by the way
they disappeared from view.
Each man. on entering the door OF
the club, 1884 1 street northwest, was
invested with long apron, and took
his place in the endless line that led to
and through the big kitchen and on
cry. pickles and cheese were spread
before each guest as he
moved along, and a big coffee urn did
its best to lure him from the path;
but. If wise. he resisted the blandish-
ments of these side shows Arming
erous slices of rye or wheat bread, as
pleased his fancy, he at last reached
the spot where a battery of cooks,
under the supervision of William c.
Johnson. president of the club. dealt
out the juicy steaks hot off the broiler
And they made some sandwich too.
In the dining room there were liquids
to wash down the repast, and, having
reached this point. the journey usually
started all over again.
Every one, however, finally had
enough, and they all gathered in the
dining room to witness the stirring
trial of President Johnson before Louis
A. Dent. auditor of the District Su-
preme Court, for assault alleged to
have been committed on the person of
William J. Eynon, chairman of the
house committee which had in charge
the arrangements for the evening, He
was unfeelingly convicted and received

AvIATORS IN AIR BATTLE

French and German Aeroplanes
Fight Aerial Duel, With Vic
tory for. the Former.

BORDEAUX, October s.-Ohcial dis
patches received by the French war
department give graphic account of
an aerial duel which was watched by
thousands of soldiers Of the French and
German armies October at Jonchery
in the region of Rheims.
A German aeroplane of the aviatic
type ascended with two men and after
circling over the French positions was
returning to its own lines when Sergt.
FrantZ, one of the most expert of
French aviators. accompanied by his
mechanic. Quinault, sprang to a ma
chine and gave chase. By a skillful
maneuver the French aeroplane took
the German on the flank and wounded
the pilot and put, bullet through the
gasoline tank.
A sheet of flame enveloped the avi-
attic and the machine dropped rapidly,
landing close to the French lines. In
the descent the unwounded man con-
tinued to fire his pistol until prevented
by the flames. Sergt. Frantz came to
earth in a series of magnificent spirals.
Both Germans were found burned to
death in the embers of their machine.
Frantz was decorated with the Legion
of Honor and Quinault. was awarded
the military medal for their exploit

AMERICAN WOMAN DRIVEN
FROM A BELGIAN CONVENT
Sister Mary Mclaughlin Ikanea-
teles Among Refugees at Lon
don on Way to New York.

LONDON, October s.-Sister. Mary Nc
Laughlin Ikaneateles of New York
was among several hundred refugees
from the vicinity of Antwerp to reach
London yesterday.
Together with fifty other Augustin-
Ian sisters she was driven from the
File de Marie convent at Willebroeck,
fifty miles south of Antwerp, by, the
September 29. Speaking of her expe-
riences. Sister Mary said:
I'VE stayed at the convent as long as
possible to protect the property, but,
the school being near the fort, shells
struck our chapel and other buildings,
shattering windows and wrecking the
roofs. Driven out. we made our way
north to Boom. two miles away, where
we were told we would be safe from
German attack. Refugees soon fol-
and told us that that town had been
destroyed. Thursday we had to leave
Boom on account Of the bombarding.
Finally we reached Antwerp, but were
ordered to leave there Immediately.
We were unable to get a boat until
Monday night.
Some weeks ago we sent all our
pupils home from the convent, but in
Antwerp I met many of my girls
among the penniless refugees fleeing
from danger. Like many of our sis
ters, they had no place to go. One Of
our sisters is blind and another is
paralytic: they are without relatives to
whom they can turn. Our poor superior
stayed with these invalids. trying to
find safe place for them in Antwerp.
81 have been in Belgium teaching for
eighteen years, but fortunately have
relatives in America to whom can re-
turn. Some of our helpless sisters
have been in the convent for fifty
years. All the members of their fami-
lies are dead. and until we can get
back to our property and restore It
their condition will be deplorable. I
was the only American in the convent.

ernment which is helping me until
can help myself"
