Sugar is scarce. We were in High

sugar at P. Ell. Johnson's. Mr.. john
son was raised near here and has
made good in High Point.
The Woman's Missionary meeting
was held at Wal1burg Baptist church
Thursday of last week with dinner on

good. Rush of business kept the
writer away.
With the ending of the war we
thought most of the trouble was over,
but it seems something unpleasant is
bobbing up all over the country at all
times. We will suffer worse if we
don't change our ways. Money is
the root of all evil, although it is held
cheap nowadays, but all hands seem
to go after it like hungry hog after
corn.
The store of J. B. & j. E. Motsinger
at Wallburg, was entered Tuesday
night and some $4OO worth of shoes
and dry goods taken. Entrance was
effected through the side door. A few
years ago fire destroyed the store and
this loss falls heavily on them.
The tobacco barn of Charley Smith
on Winston Rt. S, was destroyed by
fire recently with loss of 5000.
Mrs. C. C. Smith, a sister of the
writer, has been quite sick, but is
some better now.

THE AUTO EXACTS A HEAVY
TOLL.

Another Horrible Wreck on the
High Point Greensboro Road
Cars Suffer Heavily While Three
Occupants Are Seriously Wounded.
One Car Without Headlights.
Another serious and in all probab-
lhty a fatap auto accident, occurred
late Saturday night on the High
Point-Greensboro highway, on the
curve at the HI. A. Mills country
home, seven miles from this city,
when big Hudson car driven by
Cline Pickett, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
w. +. Pickett, ran into a Ford car
driven by 17-year-old Olin Beck, son
of Mr.. and Mrs. Chas. Beck, all of thi
city. Young Beck is now in the hos
p1tal and expected to die at any mo-
ment. In the car with him were two
girls and another boy, two of the
girls receive painful injuries which
necessltated trips to the hospital to
get their wounds dressed. Miss Daisy
Osborne, one of the girls, was the less
hurt. The other girl whose name is
not given, had bad hole in her head.
The Beck car was without headlights,
but it is said was far over on it's side
of the road coming to High Point,
while it is stated the Hudson car
owned by Bob Penny and driven by
Pickett, covered most of the road, 60
ing towards Greensboro.
The Ford car was complete wreck,
steering wheel, windshield, radius
rod, front wheels, engine and other
parts bent and twisted mass of steel
and iron. Blood covered the tenders
and broken pieces of plate glass
stuck together as if glued by the
life's blood of the wounded. The
Hudson car was badly damaged on the
right side as it side-swiped the little
Ford and lifted it from the ground
and plowed it's way under it as it
were. The right front wheel, tenders
and other parts of the Hudson went
to the bad. Pickett, the driver of the
big car, was unhurt apd was uptown
this morning. He is a cripple and
could hardly manage such a car in
case of emergency.
The vandals took advantage of the
of others and stole prac-
tically everything that could be easily
taken from the Ford car, which re-
mained over night on the road, tools,
coil box, gasoline tank cap, spark
plugs, all tires, wires and in fact all
such convenient articles, thus show
ing plainly that the meanest devils
are all not in the pen or in torment. =

FOREST FIRES
 CAUSING DAMAGE ALONG RAILROAD

Forest fires, caused most probably by sparks from the locomotives operating on the railroad south of Nenana, are reported to be spread ing rapidly in the region between the Lynn coal mine at mile 3S7 and the end of steel, at mile 365. 4 culvert on the railroad between the old engineering camp at S5-mile and old camp IS, farther south, was threatened with destruction, but the fire fighters managed TO subdue the flames and save the structure, the ends of it only being badly charred. Several ties lying loose along the road were burned up and several i others already placed in position had ] the ends burned off ere the fires were controlled.
 4 strong wind is reported to be prevailing in the area within which
 the fires have occurred. making the fighting of them very difficult. The structures in the neighborhood of the Burns mine and the Lignite roadhouse are said to be threatened by the flames, and a close watch is kept by the men in that region against fires started by sparks car ried by the high wind
 Superintendent Packer stated that the forest fires are not quite as bad as the reports first received would indicate. Section gangs and others are keeping sharp watch to protect government property, and no danger of much damage or inter ruption of traffic on the road is apprehended.
 Forest fires have also occurred along the Fairbanks line, and ac- cording to report received by Mir. Browne. engineer in charge, a small quantity of ties was burned up close to the right of way. near Cache creek. The report also indi- cated that the Cache creek trestle was also endangered for a while, but the men in the neighborhood managed to fight off the fire in time. 4 close watch is maintained all along the line and every pre- caution taken to prevent any dam age to government property.
 Within few miles of town, a forest fire of considerable propor- tions has been burning for the past few days, the flames shooting up to great height above the timber, being plainly visible from most any part of town. No danger is looked for from this cause, However. as the fire seems to have burned out.

FREIGHT TARIFF FOR NEXT SEASON
 EXPECTED SOON

According to recent advices re- ceived by Agent Scott, of the Amer ican Yukon Navigation company, tWhite Pass) the through freight tariffs from Seattle and Tacoma to A. I. N. points on the Yukon and its tributaries, via St. Michael, have been prepared and may be ex- pected here soon.
 4 change in the date of the regu- lar S5 fall advance in freight rates is announced. In previous years the date for this advance has been August 9th; the date set for the advance during the coming season will be August 11th. This change is announced early so that shippers in the Interior could order their freight shipped in as early as possible and avoid paying the extra freight after August 11th.
 The reason assigned by the 4. I. \. Co. for this change of policy is said to be on account of the unusually heavy operating cost at St. Michael in the fall, and also to spread the handling of the freight more evenly over the season, instead of having it arrive at St Michael all in one bunch on the last boats from Seattle
 This latter condition, besides be- ing expensive in an operating sense, on account of low water and short days, is also very hazardous, as the company face the liability of having some of their boats and barges caught in the ice and lost in the spring breakup. Operating the boats during the tail end of the season is always more expensive and risky.
 Interesting facts regarding the volume of business and the way it had to be handled last year is also given by the cmpany's officials.
 During the season 1918, over B per cent of the total seasons ton- mage was handled on the first sail ings from Seattle, and practically 45 Der cent on the last sailings. The period of sailings of the com pany's boats out of St. Michael for the season covered S2 days.
 From July p to September 10, a period of 50 days. and represent ing over 50 per cent of the season, the company handled only l2 per cent of the seasons freight. The shipments on the last sailings from Seattle were landed at St. Michael between August 31 and September 6. and on account of the usual fall storms, this freight could not have been all forwarded out of St. Mich ael until September ?. For period of five weeks straight, owing to lack of freight, the company did not have a sailing out of St. Michael, and in a short season of a little over three months, it is. stated that during last season the bulk of the company's boats laid idle for nearly two months of that time.
