WITH THE
Western WeekZies
Goes Crazy Over Religion.

Mr.. George NJ. Self, a young farmer
of the Ellenboro section, was brought
n Jail Saturday in a crazed condition.
The examining physician says that re-
ligious mania is the cause of loss of
reason. MI. Self. who is married. 2S
rears old, healthy and prosperous. has
been attending several religious meet
ings this summer where the pressure
was high. He became possessed of the
idea that he had committed an unpar-
donable sin and a few weeks ago went
in the night to the top of Cherry Noun
tain, near his home, and preached for
several hours. On the way to the court
Saturday in company with the doctor
and other attendants he desired to bap-
tize himself in Broad river. When de-
MED he became violent and came into
own with four men holding him.

RAILROAD UNION HEADS
IN CAMPAIGN FOR WILSON.

Chiefs of the four railroad brother
hoods have sent a personal appeal in
the form of a circular letter to theit'
members throughout the country urg-
ing them to vote for the reelection Of
president Wilson, it was announced by
G. H. Sines, vice president of the
Brotherhood Of Railroad Trainmen The
appeal. it was said was based not only
on the ground that President Wilson
had obtained legislation favorable to
labor generally, but that he had been
responsible also for legislation ben
e6cial to the masses of the people.
Mr.. Sines, in making the announce
ment declared this vas the first time in
the history of the brotherhoods they
departed from their traditional policy
Of keeping out of politics."

Narrow ESCAPE.

As a result of the leap of about 100
feet down the mountain-side Sunday
afternoon by the automobile of DR..
Chas. D. Gruver, D. J. Bullock and
daughter are in the Mission hospital at
Asheville and the nerves /of the four
occupants of the car are badly upset
and the machine almost demolished.
Dr.. Gruver and daughter and Mr..

steering gear fail to properly work AMI
took a sudden leap said to be. about 100
feet down the mountain side.

SHIPMAN SPOKE AT
HAYESVILLE SATURDAY.
Gives Some Interesting Figures on
Educational Progress in State
and District.

Speaking before a large audience in
the court house at HayesvilIe in Clay
county Saturday-Woodrow Wilson
Day-M. L. Shipman, commissioner of
labor and printing, referred to Presi-
dent Wilson as the greatest chief ex-
e~cutive since the days of Washington
and Jefferson and predicted his re-
election by a fattering vote on Novem-
Der Z.
Reverting to state issues, Mr.. Ship
man expressed the conviction that the
peoples business had been managed
so wisely and so well, since the dem
ocrats resumed control in 1900. there
cEere is little probability of a falling
of in the democratic majority this
year. "The groundless criticisms of
+ A. Linney and his apologies" said
the speaker, "have been met with facts
and figures that can not be impeached.
They started out to audit the state
treasurer's books. but abandoned the
IDEA because numerous Investigations
previously had found every dollar of
the states money intact. They chas-
ed bedbugs from the soldiers home
for a time, but finding the democrats
had attended to that the search was
abandoned. / believe they are still
making objection to our educational
system, and a few suggestions bear
ing upon democratic achievements
along this line may not be inappro-
pirate. w..
Quotes Figures.
The following figures will be of in
terest in this connection, and l con"
slider them as Of vital importance to
all who have the best interests of the
states public schools at heart. They
cover the thirteen counties which COM
prise the Tenth congressional district:
THE average length of the school
term in 1900 vas seventy-two days.
In 1915 it was a fraction over lis days.
Here we have a gain of forty-three
and one-half days, Or sixty per cent.
"The attendance figures are as sig
nificant. The number attending in
1900 was 1910. In 1915 it had jump
ed to 32,5S9. which is an increase of
l13.410, or an increase of seventy ner
cent.
Nov let us see what the different
sums of money spent on the children
have been in the different periods.
Last year the teachers of the thir-
teen counties Of the district were paid
$22,587.16. The average amount paid
the teachers in 1900 for the ten coun-
ties reporting, was $5,56S.12. The in
crease will be seer to be $~17,019.O4.
This shows that more than four times
as much was paid the teachers i'll 1915
as was in 1900, or an average of 327
per cent.
"The average monthly salary paid
teachers last year was $4O.2S. In
1900 it was $44, 781.24. This is fiveand
crease of sixty-one per cent.
Educational Progress.
"The educational progress or the
district is indicated by the. wonderf"'
increase in the value Of the scnoo,
property which today is 1901 793. II
1900 it was $55, 8S1.76. This is five an

A Famous Shot.

A good story is told on trading
agent in Nyassaland. He was OBJ
seBsed with a particularly real horror
OF lions. One of these brutes began
to eat up the natives of the nearby
village, doing terrible havoc. The
agent barricaded himself In his room
and slept with six native watchmen
on duty in case the lion should try
to break into his house. One night
he thought he heard the lion prowling
around, and promptly fired out OF the
window, knocking n hole In the gov
eminent boat The following morning
ne was astonished to see what had
happened, That night he again heard
sounds which seemed to foreteli the
presence OF the lion He seized his
rife and fired, and this time succeed
cd in bagging the district officers IA
vorte mule at the first shot. A GER
tain well-known sportsman. who shall
be nameless, was hunting in the dis
trict and heard the story. He wrote
TO the agent and congratulated him
on shooting his first lion. The agent
rose to the occasion, and now silences
all skeptics by producing the letter.
