Tragedy at Mount Holly.
The charred remains of a new born
babe were found in the ruins Of dis
used stable on the premises of j. Fl.
Sims in the Mt. Holly, section of Ca
tawba township last Tuesday morn
ing. The old stable was burned last
Thursday night. The matter became
noised abroad and the bones of the
babe was unearthed Tuesday after a
careful search. Coroner j. H. Nc
Manus held an inquest over the re-
mains Wednesday and developed the
information that the babe was the
child of Sarah Edna Sims, daughter
of j. H. Sims Of the Mount Holly sec
tion. The father of the young girl
testified that she had admitted to him
that she gave birth to the child on the
night of Sept. %, although it was
born dead. Thinking to hide the
happening she placed the body of the
dead infant in the barn and fired the
structure. The young woman's testi-
mony before the coroner corroborated
that of her father. The coroner adj
journed the inquest until next Mon
day afternoon when further testimony
will be heard. The young mother has
not been arrested.

Race clashes, Senator Williams,

meet the league of nations with race
riots. II will go in the paths Of peace

Tho Omaha lynchins.-Compara-
tive quiet has been restored In Omaha.
Nebraska, but feeling still runs strong.
There was rioting during Sunday
morning and part of Monday, es-
pecially between whites and negro s;
but this was quieted upon the arrival
of the troops\ under General Wood.
General Wood has 1000 soldiers in
the city. He is working with the civil
authorities. Altogether there have
riot. The negro who was lynched and
two others. Public meetings of all
kinds have been prohibited. Mayor
Smith. who was badly injured be-
cause of bis refusal to order the negro
to be given up to the mob, is getting
along nicely, and will entirely re-
cover. He had close call, however.
The negro quarter of the city is being
patrolled by troops, who disperse all
gatherings of either whites or negroes
in the vicinity. A crowd of negroes
broke into hardware store and
cleaned out all the arms and ammu-
milton to be had. The majority senti-
ment in the city upholds the lynchers.
1t is said that many of the women
clerks in the stores, stenographers and
others boast of having been out at
the courthouse during the attack by
the mob. Many other, women, or
nSourse, deplore the circumstance.
Generally the official and professional
elements are said to condemn the
whole affair. The county court will
summon special grand jury on Oc-
tober s to investigate the whole stu
alton. 1t is promised that many ar
rests will be made; but as to whether
the local civil authorities will be able
to do anything remains to be seen.
There is reason for doubts. Quite q
number of policemen handed in their
clubs and badges on the arrival of the
Federal soldiers.

IN CASE OF DISABILITY

IN CASE YOU were to become dis
abled by an accident, or be laid up by
sickness, would you be able to stand
the extra expense and at the same
time continue to meet your ordinary
expenses without embarrassment? In
other words, is your income outside OF
your daily earnings sufficient, to meet
those expenses, or would your income
stop when you were no longer able to
work? If you are dependent on your
earnings, and are wise, you will insure
them. We are in position to furnish
you with contract that will absolute
ly guarantee you specified amount

National Oil Company Bonds

Question-Will you kindly give me
as much information as you can on the
hrst lien per cent serial gold bonds
OF the National Oil Company of New
Jersey, and tell me whether this is an
absolutely safe investment w.
Answer-The National Oil Company
per cent bonds, recently sold to the
extent of $4,000 900, are to be used to
increase the cOmpany's drilling opera
tions. to enlarge its refneries, con-
struct terminal at Tampico. to ac-
quire additional properties, to com
plete ships now building, and for addi-
tl0nal working capital. The president
OF the company recently stated that on
the basis Of present earnings net for
the year will be over $1,000, 600, and
after completion Of additions and bet
terments net for 1920 should be $780,
700. The company owns considerable
property In Mexico and Texas. For
1918 the surplus after preferred divi-
dends was S133,275, but the company
did no development work that year, as
the government took over all its ships
over $500 tons. We cannot say that
the bonds arc absolutely safe. Any
company producing oil, particularly in
Mexico at this time, is likely to have
it's troubles The bonds. however, an
pear to be we'll secured, and the earn
ing power is said to be ample to care
for them.

First Dividend
On Corn Products

Directors Vote Regular
Quarterly Payment of !
Per Cent and One-half
Per Cent Extra

An initial dividend Of per cent reg
u]ar and one-half of l per cent extra
on the S4S,777,3S3 outstanding common
stock Of the Corn Products Refining
Company was declared by the directors
Yesterday for the quarter ended De-
cemher 81.
E. T. Bedford, president, in an
nouncing the inauguration Of regular
dividends on the Junior shares said it
vas the hope of the directors that from
tine to time these would be increased
by such extra quarterly distributions
as the profits might warrant. He
further stated that Notwithstanding.
losses ccaSioned by shut-downs
caused by labor and coal strikes dur
ing the year, the company's earnings
for 1919 By reason OF lower taxes will
be greater than the net profits of the
preceding year.
Mr. Bedford added that the business
Of the Corn Products Company this
year has been limited only by its
ability TO produce, because the prod
ucts from corn, by reason Of their food
value, had brought about q world de
mand greater than the industry as a
whole had been able to supply. He
declared that at this time a conserva-
tive financial policy was necessary to
provide for the company's increasing
Worldwide business and TO increase
factory facilities. which were lost as
result OF the government dissolu-
ton suit
Working capital, Mr.. Bedford said,
will also be required to improve the
company's position in South America,
particularly with reference to better
ing opportunities for obtaining Argen-
tine corn. which for the past year has
been used LARGELY at the Edgewater.

Regarding the present CAPITAL condi-
ton Of the company. Mr.. Bedford
stated that at the present time the

mortgages having been practically paid
of. The common stock dividend de-
clared yesterday is payable January
Is next, and the preferred on Jana
arg 10. Both dividends are payable to
stockholders Of record on January 5.

Hodgman Rubber Company

Question-Will you kindly inform me
as to the advisability of purchasing
shares in the Hodgman Rubber Com
pany stock "A. D.
Answer-The Hodgman Rubber Com
pany is said to be the oldest concern
of Its kind in the United States. Is
plant is located at Tuckahoe. n. T. 1t
manufactures rubber cloth and various
soft rubber products such as are ex-
tensively used in the drug trade. The
business always has been conservatives
ly managed, and the average earnings
for the last ten years, after deprecia-
ton and taxes, were equal to more thaa
twice the dividend charges on the new
issue of $l,O00,000 of per cent pre-
ferred stock recently offered to the
public. The proceeds from the sale OF
this stock are to be used in retiring
small amount of preferred stock pre-.
viously outstanding. and for cniarginc
the Tuckahoe plant. The stock. in our
opinion. is a conservative investment.
