Hull and Ross
May Be Parolled

Judge Huck was here last Saturday
and he and Prosecuting Attorney Da-
Wis went over and considered the va
rious petitions, letters and appeals for
parole of VIM. Ross and Oscar Hull,
who are serving terms in Jail for
"bootlegging," as well as the protests
made against granting a parole.
The petitions are for an immediate
parole and have been on file for more
than two months. Afr. Davis declined
to recommend and Judge Huck to
grant an immediate parole, but after
considering all the facts in connection
with the cases as well assevidence fur
nished that the health of the men was
deterlorating rapidly and that one of
them (HulD is predisposed to tuber-
cular trouble, they determined that if
Hull and Ross would each pay the
court costs and comply with other
conditions that parole would be
granted them on the 9th day of Sep
tember.
The conditions of the parole are as
follows: ID Payment of all court
costs standing against them. (2)
The signing of an agreement and
bond that they will not again violate
any of the criminal laws Of the State,
and particularly the law relating to
the illegal sale of liquor; and (3)
That they will each remove from the
county and remain away for the peri
cd of one year.
Both of the men pleaded guilty, but
Judge Huck and Mr.. Davis each de-
clared that the clemency to be ex-
tended them is not to be considered as
a precedent; that each case as it
comes up will be determined upon the
facts surrounding it.
Hull and Ross have been in Jail
since the 10th day of May, and will,
on the 9th of September, have served
approximately three-fourths of q
six-months' jail sentence.

GRANDMA NEVER LET
HER HAIR GET GRAY
She Kept Her Locks Dark and
Glossy, with Sage Tea
and Sulphur.

When you darken your hair with Sase
Tea and Sulphur, no one can tell, be-
cause it's done So naturally, SO evenly.
Preparing this mixture, though, at home
is mussy and troublesome. For SO cents
you can buy at any drug store the ready
to-use preparation, improved by the addi-
tion of other ingredients, called "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" You just
dampen a sponge or soft brush with it
and draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at time. By morning
all gray hair disappears, and, after an
other application or two, your hair be-
comes beautifully darkened, glossy and
luxuriant.
Gray, faded hair, though no disgrace,
is a sign of old age, and as WE all de-
sire a youthful and attractive appear
ance, get busy at once with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound and look years
younger. This ready-to-use preparation
is delightful toilet requisite and not a
medicine. cit is not intended for the cure,
mitigation or prevention OF disease.

WOMAN MAYOR TIRED
AND READY TO QUIT

Warren, H., May 5.-Mrs. Angela
r. Garfield the only woman mayor
in Illinois, is ready to quit when her
term expires next month.
She says she has had good time
but she's tired of being mayor.
Mrs. Garfield, VINO runs millinery
shop with which to help out her year
ly income of $12 as mayor of Warren
is going to close out her business
and go to California to live.
Rounding up my boys, the coun-
cilmen, was great amusement Mrs
Garfield said today. "My aldermen
decided one night that they did not
want to call me mayor, and would
rather call me president. l told them
that Webster says mayor formerly
meant one who kept herds OF cattle.

Here are some of the improve
ments Mrs Garfield has accomplished
since she took office:
Abolished wife beating and spit
ting on streets; stopped automobile
speeding; closed all pool halls; catsed
the covering of all candies, Meats
and vegetables displayed for sale and
forced economy in electric and gas
lighting.

METHODIST UNION
AT HAND, HE SAYS

That all the several Methodist de-
nominations in America should be ag-
gregated into one American Method
list body, is the opinion of Rev. DAVID
Judson Starr, d. D., of Cincinnati; an
Asheville visitor.
'sUnder present conditions said DR..
Starr, to Citizen reporter, mo such
separations as now exist could take
place, and the conditions which caused
the separations have long since pass
ed away. For several months past |
have mingled freely with churchmen
of all denominations in several States
in the South. Ny experience inclines
me to believe that the general confer
ence now in session at Saratoga
Springs, N. Y, will take some wise
action that will result in some organic
union
DR.. Starr is president of the re-
tired ministers association in ONO,
and is anxious to have established
homes for retired ministers in the
South, where, he says, in their declin-
ing years, they may enjoy the adj
vantages of a more genial and health
restoring climate. There are over soc
such retired ministers in Ohio alone.

That Type to Be Destroyed
in Two DAYS.

London, May ga Zeppelin was
destroyed yesterday by one of the
British light cruiser squadrons on the
Schlesing coast, says an official an
nouncement issued by the government
today.
This is the second Zeppelin to be
destroyed in two days. The Zeppelin
LEO was blown ashore on the Nor
wegian coast on Wednesday after re-
turning from a raid on the east coast
of England and Scotland Tuesday

BENCH WARRANT FOR
ARREST OF T. C. MCCOY

Asheville, May 5.-A bench warrant
for the arrest of T. G. Mccoy, of
Asheville, was issued by Judge James
E. Boyd Wednesday,. The bench war
rant was issued on an Indictment from
Florida, and the charges are not new.
The warrant alleges that Mr.. Mccoy
engaged in the business of rectifying
and distilling spirits. 1t is nearly the
same charge which brought the de-
PENDANT before United States Commits
sioner Shelton last January. At that
hearing Mr.. Mccoy was discharged
A bench warrant for Mr.. Mccoy was
also issued by Judge Boyd on two in
dictments from Arkansas. There are
various counts in one of these, de-
frauding the government out of the
tax on 100000 gallons of distilled
spirits being one.

U. s. SENATE PASSES
THE FARM LOAN BILL

Washington, May 0.-The Hollis
farm loan bill, embodying the admin
istration plan for establishing a sys-
tenn of rural credits, passed the sen
ate last night by a vote of So to ..
Senators Brandegee, Lodge, Oliver
Page, and Wadsworth, all Republi-
cans, voted against the measure.
The bill, after almost two weeks Of
debate, passed the senate practically
as reported by the banking commit
tee. An amendment by Senator
Smoot reducing the salaries of the
farm loan board from $4,000 to ST.
500 adopted in the committee of the
whole, was re-considered when the
bill reached the senate and defeated.
A somewhat similar bill has beel-
reported by the House Banking COM
mittee and, it is said, will be brought
up for consideration in the house
soon. Like the senate measure, it
would create loan banks, but it din
fers in means of operation.
The senate bill provides for non
partisan farm loan board to consist OF
the Secretary of the Treasury anu
four others, having general control
of a farm loan system of twelve or
more land banks and thru which loans
actually would be made.

PITIFUL STORY TOLD
IN LETTERS TO JUDGE

A pitiful story was revealed to Re-
corder T. G. Wooten of Kinston, which
came to him Monday, says the Kins-
ton correspondent of the News and
Observer. The writer adds: Judge
Wooten on April % tried w. G. Brown
and Eva Smith and found them gull
ty of living together illegally in this
city. Brown stated that his home
was in Spray, N. c., the girl that she
lived in the vicinity of Admission, Ala.
They had met in Greensboro and came
here to pursue an illicit relationship
under the guise of being married
Brown, upon stating that he had
wife and child elsewhere in the State,
was allowed to pay $25 and costs and
return home The girl, about 20 and
fair looking, was ordered to go to
her relatives in Alabama Immediate
ly. She left here.
The letters, which were to the girl
IN care Of Judge Wooten, came from
Mrs. Sue Smith, mother Of Miss
Smith, and a sister, the former living
in Jacksonville, Ala, the latter in
Admission. The letters revealed that
the girl had not gone home. The
mother thinks she is in prison here,
for some reason unknown to her. Her
letter tells of aching hearts; grand
father who cried bitterly; qualification
that the girls father is not alive to
know OF 'his baby's" trouble, and
complete forgiveness. The mother
has broken up housekeeping. Her
bed was sold, and the $12 that it
brought came in money order to
Eva Smith, that she might return
home. The money order was returned
by the police. They do not know
where her daughter is, Mrs. Smith
will learn. Don't go the other way
was plea in the mothers undelivered
letter. The phrase is also a sermon.
With the others arrived a letter
from Brown. His wife and child are

he is working and happy. Both hus-

Spencer, May 5.-Announcement has
been made that the shops Of the South
ern Railway will hereafter work full
time-six days and eight hours.
For more than a year the shops
especially the locomotive department
had been working short time-some
months only three days a week.
Recently the car department went
ON full time and nine hours per day.
With the locomotive department now
on full time and with much work on
hand, the Spencer pay roll will again
be something enormous ammo uniting
perhaps to $225,000 monthly, includ-
ing the road men who run in and out

this end had it been determined to in
sist against Great Britain on the in
@cptroXertihle rights OF the freedom
CRIME seas, 1ut, as matters -Stand, tne
German people is under the impress
sion that the government of the Uni
ted States, while demanding that Ger
many, struggling for existence, shall
restrict the use of an effective weapon
and while making compliance with
these demands on the condition for
maintaining of relations with Ger
many, confines itself to protests
against the illegal methods adopted
by Germany's enemies.
Moreover, the German people know
to what extent it's enemies are sup
piled with all kinds Of war material
from the United States.
sit will therefore be understood that
the appeal made by the government
of the United States, to the senti-
ments of humanity and principles OF
international law, cannot, under the
circumstances, meet a more hearty
response from the German people
which such an appeal otherwise is
certain to find here.
'"The German government is pre-
pared to do it's utmost to cOnfine OPP
erations of the war for the rest of it's
duration to the fighting forces of the
belligerents, thereby also insuring the
freedom Of the seas, a principle upon
which the German government be-
ieves now, as before that it has an
agreement with the government OF
the United States.
Accordingly, the German govern
ment has confidence that, in conse-
quence of the new orders to the naval
forces, the government of the United
States will also now consider all i'm
pediments removed which may have
been in the way Of mutual co-opera
ton for restoration of the freedom of
seas during the war, as suggested in
the note of July %, 1915, and it does
not doubt that the government of the
United States will now demand and
insist that the British government
shall forthwith observe the rules OF
international law universally recog-
nized before the war, as are laid down
in the notes of the United States gov
eminent to the British government of
December %, 1914 and November 5,
1915.
Should steps taken by the govern
ment of the United States not attain
the object it desires to have the law
of humanity followed by all belliger-
ent nations, the German government
would then be facing a new situation
in which it must reserve to itself COM
plete liberty"
