CHAPTER Nv.
Planning an Awakening.

How is our young Englishmar
getting along?" asked Mr. Townley a
few days later on meeting Allan Rut-
ledge. Il do not see Mr.. Nelson very
much. He has become member OF
your church has he not?"
NO. responded Allan. II do not
seem to be able to get him to consent
to a public avowal Of his faith in
Christianity, but he is a regular at
,endant at the church, and he min
giles to a certain extent among our
young people"
II have a peculiar interest In the
young man." said Mr.. Townley. He
came to Bronson at my invitation in
the first place, and fee. that there is
moral power in him If it could find an
outlet
HE has accepted new position
which he assumes the first OF the
year." answered the other. He told
me Yesterday that he is going into the
office of the Courier on Jan. l, and he
will be the city reporter"
Good" exclaimed Mr.. Townley en-
Enthusiastically. THAT is better place
for him than the railroad office. We
shall hear from HIM in the newspaper

Having reached the Peoples church,
Mr.. Townley unlocked side door and
ushered his friend into his handsome
study.

admiration.

swered the other, with sudden PEN
siveness "I seem like a hermit shut
up in my cell. When 1 want real

people who are fighting life's battles.
Since my return from Europe l have
been studying the social question with
a new enthusiasm I was formerly in
terested in Biblical criticism, and /
learned German so that I might read
the authorities in Germany more read
lily, but my visit to Europe entirely
changed my outlook"
What do you mean?" asked Allan
Rutledge.
I'm Europe. to my surprise, l found
the leading thinkers snd scholars
turning their attention more and more
to the matter of social reform. In
such matters Europe is far in advance
of America. Some Of the recent leg
islation in Germany and England
would be called rank socialism with
u.s.
"You mean the laws giving the gov
ernments control of monopolies and
the legislation providing for state in
surance, old age pensions, minimum
wage and such like?"
YES" answered Mr.. Townley. 81

one bona fide citizen Of Gastonia has
been arrested on a charge OF public
drunkenness, and this party, who was
to have appeared for trial yesterday
morning, forfeited a $25 cash bond
rather than face the court on such q
charge. Since the prohibition law
forbidding the delivery Of intoxicants
by express in the county went into
effect on April 1st, there have been
three or four other arrests for drunk
enness, but these have been rank out
siders, who happened to take on toe
much while in the city. Only one
real Gastonian has been guilty, and
he will probably never do so again
The cells in the city prison stood wide
open Saturday, and for q large part
Of the time since the beginning Of the
month, have had no occupants. This
does not mean that the police have
nothing to do, for they are keeping
fore to prevent the sale Of liquor that
is smuggled into the city in unlaw-
full ways. .One Of the most charm
ing weddings Of the spring took place
Saturday evening at o'clock, when
Mr.. Chesly Watkins Of Statesville, and
Miss Elizabeth Bonner Sparrow were
married. The ceremony took place
in Union church, CASTOR county, and
was performed by Rev. George A.
Sparrow, father Of the bride, and
pastor Of the church. He was assist
ed by Rev. ]. H. Henderlite Of Gas
tonia.. The Gazette learns from
reliable sources that there Is to be
another ticket in the field for next
Mondays municipal election. We
have not been able to get the complete
ticket for publication today but 1t is
understood that it has been about
completed and will be made public
in day or 80. Mr.. v. E. Long, one
Of the citys most prominent business
men and former alderman, 1t Is under
stood, heads the ticket. 1t Is further
understood that economy" will be the
slogan Of the new ticket.
Lancaster News, April 27: The
$4,000 issue of Lancaster county non
taxable bonds, provided for by act of
the last legislature to pay past In
debtedness Of the county, were sold
by the county board Monday, to the
First National bank Of Lancaster, 1t
being the highest bidder for the bonds.
The county board advertised for seal
ed bids on bonds bearing Al per cent
and per cent interest, payable semi
annually AS will be seen, the per
cent issue brought the best price for
the county. The First National bank
Is to be congratulated on making a
bid which was more advantageous to
the county than any Of the Others, al
though 1t will be seen from the bids
that the Bank Of Lancaster was a
very close second, the bid Of the First
National bank being $102.99a and that
