AYDEN VOTES $4,000
BONDS FOR GOOD ROADS
Live Pitt County Town Adds Another
Step nj March of
ProgreSS

Kinston, Aug. 16.-Ayden township,
in Pitt county, yesterday voted $4,000
in bonds for building good permanent
roads in the township by vote Of ISL
to los out Of the total registered vote
of 357. It required 179 or a majority
Of the registered votes to carry the is
sue and it only won by close margin Of
two votes.
The campaign for the bond issue was
a short, sharp one Of about 80 days and
the facts that the citizens of Ayden
township cast favorable vote for it
shows that the progressive spirit that
has won for the Pitt county town the
name of "Magic City, still prevails.
Work on constructing the roads will be
started just as soon as the bonds are
sold and the contract can be let. Sever
al of the roads will come towards Kin
ston and at least one of them will reach
Lenoir county line at Grifton. The close
relationship between the two towns will
be made even closer when their road is
brought to the Lenoir line and the
roads now contemplated in this county
are taken there to meet them.

Asheville, N. c., Aug. 16.-Literally
tracing a still by it's scent, Sheriff E.
NJ. Mitchell and force of deputies
Sunday captured a large moonshine
plant near Skyland, within seven miles

blockaders, seized twelve gallons of
moonshine liquor and poured out a

alton of the still, the sheriff and his
deputies went to Skyland, and inciGcn-
tally investigated the home of Walton,
where Lockhart was a boarder. Search
ing for still, the sheriff was attracted

operation in clump of trees, about
thirtyfve yards from the Walton
home.

CARGO OF DYESTUFFS

First Consignment from Germany Since
Beginning Of the War Gets to the
New York Coloring Cnmnanu

New York, August 16-The first
consignment of dyes brought from
Germany by the submarine freighter,
Deutschland, has been received bv a
coloring company in this city and con-
stitutes the first shipment of the kind
to reach this city from German manu-
LECTURERS since the beginning of the
war. Other dyestuff users here receiv-
ed bills of lading for some of the car
go of the Deutschland which is esti-
mated to have included about 200
tons of dyes valued in excess of one
million dollars. It is reported that high
prices are demanded for these dyes but
one Of the consignees said that it was
absurd to believe that fabulous pro-
Tits would be realized on their sale.
He declared that the cost of the
dyes in Germany is at least twice what
1T was before the war, that freight and
insurance charges are three times as
great and that the dyes brought by
the Deutschland were not in the form
of paste, composed Of ten and twenty
per cent dye and the rest paste, but
are 100 per cent dye.

he said, and made him promise, on his
knees, that he would tell nothing of
what was to transpire. Under threat
he started to call Rouse out of the
house for the party, but was relieved
of that unpleasant duty when Rouse s
mother opened the door. One of the
men stepped into the open doorway and
shot Rouse as he lay in bed. Cooper
had been in hiding since the shooting
several weeks ago. He declared that
he knew none of the men, that they

to them that Rouse was kill

SUMMER SCHOOLS AND MUNICH
FAL CAMPS IN NATIONAL
j FORESTS.

Washington, August Embarrassing
use of the National Forests for Munich
pal camp sites and summer school loca
tions is reported by the Forest
Service. Permits have already been is
sued to several cities and educational
institutions and other applicat ions are
expected. Officials say that far more
people use the forests for public play
grounds than for any other purpose
and that this promises to be one of the
most important to which they can be
put.
The city of Fresno, California, has
been granted a permit for the use of a
l5-acre camp on the shores of Hunt
ington Lake, in the Sierra National
Forest. 1t is reported that the city
will establish camp in which outings
during the summer months will be pro-
vided at low cost for 1900 school
children and their parents.
In the same Forest a California
State normal school is now occupying
a tract of land which is rented from
the government under long term lease.
A number of buildings have been erect
ed, all of which, as well as many cot
tages and camps, are supplied with
water from water system installed
by the Forest Service In connection
with the regular six-weeks course, this
school gives a course in woodcraft and
general forestry subjects. The stu
dents visit the nearby Forest Service
ranger stations and lookout towers,
and study the Government g methods
of fire protection.
Addresses on the work of the Forest
Service are given by officials from time
to time. The Georgia State Forest
School has a camp on private lands on
the Georgia National Forest where a
summer course is given. A feature of
this course is series of talks given by
members Of the Forest Service station
ed in the vicinity
Los Angeles was the first city in Cali
fornia to establish a vacation camp in
the National Forests. A tract of land
in the Angeles Forest has been rented
and large camp built, costing about
$4,000. This camp consists of a log and
stone lodge, 46 furnished cottages, ten
MS and croquet courts, baseball grounds
and handball courts. A Today trip
can be made for a small cost which is
within the. reach of practically every
one By this means thousands or resi-
dents of the city have been able to
spend their vacations in the mountains.
1t is also reported that San Fran
cisco association is considering the es-
Establishment of a summer home for
girls at Lake Tahoe on the National
Forest. Boy Scout troops regularly
camp in several Of the Forests, and one
Forest the Y. M. G.. A. of a nearby city
has leased lot and put up a perman-
ent camp.
Officials say that the National For
ests offer unlimited opportunities for
summer school and municipal camps, as
well as the best opportunities for re-
creation to be had anywhere in the
