JESSE BOWDEN TO

CONVICTED OF FIRST DEGREE
BURGLARY IN CRAVEN
COUNTY LAST FALL.
UPHELD BY SUPREME COURT
Bowden Says He and Another Negro
Started Out to "Have a Little
Fun"-WHI Get 1t.

Raleigh.-Jesse Bowden, a Craven
county negro, must die in the electric
chair for the crime OF, first degree bur-
g1ary, the Supreme court handing
down a decision affirming his convic-
ton in the Superior court of Craven
county
The crime was committed last Au-
gust. Lee Perkins and Jesse Bowden,
both negroes, broke into the home OF
Mr.. w. A. Wilson, near the town or
Dover, Bowden entering a room oc-
cupied by two daughters Of Mr.. VIII
son and Perkins going into a room
occupied by another daughter. The
latter was awakened and cried out,
and at the noise the Bowden negro
crawled under the bed or which the
two girls were asleep and was found
there by the father a little later. In
his defense he maintained that he was
drunk and that he did not know where
he was at the time or what he was
doing there, further than that he had
started out with the Perkins negro to
'have a little fun" Both the negroes
were convicted of first degree bur-
glary, and Bowden appealed. The SUI
preme court finds no error in the trial
below, at which Judge Thomas H. Cal
vert presided.

This improved sight as planned by him

Wandering Child Nearly Starved.
Washington-After having been
missing for two days, Sarah Griffin,
the nine-year-old daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. William Griffin, Of T~hompson's
Creek, was found almost starved to
death and completely exhausted, seven
miles from home in the woods.
Sarah wandered away from home
while at play. She strayed off into the
woods, looking for violets. Paying no
attention to where she was going, she
lost all sense of direction and soon
found herself completely at a loss as
to the location of her home. She, ran
until completely exhausted and at last
fell down and slept at the foot Of a
tree. The next morning she .centin-
ued her search for home. She went
all day without a thing to eat, al
though she managed to secure water
from the shallow places in the woods
where the rain had made puddles. The
second night was also spent in the
woods. When the searching party Of
ten men found her the next morning
she was in a pitiable condition. It is
believed that she would have died be-
fore nightfall. She was taken home
and medical attention summoned

DRINK HOT WATER
BEFORE BREAKFAST
Says you really feel clean, sweet
and fresh inside, and
are seldom i'll.

If you are accustomed to wake up
with a coated tongue, foul breath or
a dull, dizzy headache; or, if your
meals sour and turn into gas and
acids, you have a. real surprise await
ing you.
Tomorrow morning, Immediately
upon arising, drink a. glass of hot
water with a teaspooRfu1 Of limestone
phosphate in it. This is intended to
first neutralize and then wash out of
your stomach, liver, kidneys and
thirty feet Of intestines all the indi-
gestible waste, poisons, sour bile and
toxins, thus cleansing, sweetening and
purifying the entire alimentary canal.
Those subject to sick headaches,
backache, bilious attacks, constipation
or any form Of stomach trouble, are
urged to get a quarter pound Of lime
stone phosphate from the drug store
and begin enjoying this morning in
side-bath. It is said that men and
women who try this become enthu-
siastic and keep it up daily. 1t is a
splendid health measure for it is more
important~to keep clean and pure on
the inside than on the outside. because
the skin pores do not absorb mpuri-
ties into the blood, causing disease,
while the bowel pores do.
The principle OF bathing inside Is
not new, as m~illions-of people practice
it.. Just as hot water and soap cleanse,
purify and freshen the skin, SO hot
water and a teaspoonfu1 Of limestone
phosphate act on the stomach, liver,
kidneys and bowels. Limestone phos-
plate is al inexpensive white powder
and almost tasteless.

And do not think to live the life of

EASTER FESTIVALS
IN SPANISH CITIES
Fontarabia Always Cay With
PROFESSIONS and Festivities
Gorgeous Celebrations in Sc
vile the order for Centuries.

NPAIN, lying at peace in the heart
Oflwar, need not be disturbed in
the celebrating of holy week, and
so will continue to be first ameng
the nations henoring Christ in realistic
ceremonial. The little town of Fon-
tarabia, a stones throw from French
soil, is almost as old as the present
government of Spain. Religion and
war have been the greatest forces, in
its ancient streets, and a fortress with
many battles to it's credit yet guards
the quiet people whose greatest time
OF the year is that which is close upon
Easter Sunday.
Professions are the chief feature,
and the images of Christ and the
saints, whichLigure in these process
Sions, are the treasures of the small
city. The gay city of Seville has the
most gorgeous celebration Of Easter
perhaps in the world, in the matter Of
symbolic ceremonies in the streets,
and as the most beloved city of the
Spaniards it's practices have had a
wonderful influence owe the little
towns, so many of which nestle against
the mountains or sun themselves along
the sea.
Rome, Petrograd and Venice have
caught the ear OF the world with the
music Of their services during the
week of the Passion, but in the COM
bined gravity and colorful symbolism
with which the little towns Of the
Spanish peninsula go about observing
Easter there is no superseding. The
Images Of st. Anne, the mother of the
Virgin; of Mary Magdalene and the
Savior are the most popular and the
most revered, and those which are
most adored in the procession. The
figure of the Christ IN Fontarabia is
very old.
Poland and her Easter feasts- are
heraided widely. blessing the food
at Easter time is fully as ancient a
custom and is more familiar. It is
now spoken Of as purely a Slavic
feature. In the houses Of the prosper
Gus, before the war, the tables fairly
groaned with viands for the Easter
dinner that followed close upon many
days of very abstemious fasting. Be
fore the meal was prepared in any
household, great or small, the food was
brought in baskets to the churches,
where priests spripk4ed it with holy
water and gave It their blessing. A
lamb cooked whole formed the center
piece of the table, as much as a goose
in Germany or a turkey in the United
States at a Christmas dinner.

a six months leave of absence by his

on the idea of giving upits popular

The hope of Immortality was not
