County Agent Wants To Ship Car
Load OF Hogs.

We started last week to locate one
hundred farmers who would agree to
cooperate in marketing their surplus
porkers next fall, winter and spring,
shipping in car lots TO the packing
plants. Our purpose in this is to dem
onstrate that there is a market for all
the hogs We can grow and that by CO.
operating We can get them to market.
Upon arriving at the farm of Mr.. j.
A. Mattox of Buford township, we in
quired of him if he would like TO CO.
operate in such proposition. Yes,
sir, | am ready right now. | have
six hogs that | can't sell anywhere. "
We went to the lot to see his hogs
and found six that would average at
least two hundred and twenty-five
pounds each. We inquired their age
and was told that they would be sew
en- months old the twenty-eighth of
this month. How did you manage TO
grow them so quick? | asked Il
keep sows. sell cream. and feed the
pigs on skim milk" was the answer.
If Mr. MattoX could get his pigs to
the packing plant they would bring
him two hundred and fifty to two
hundred and seventy-five dollars. Ii
we get together eighty such pigs as
Mr.. Mattox has, they will make a car
load. How many have we in Union
county that are now ready for mark
ct? Reader. If you have one and
would like TO cooperate with Mr..
Mattox in marketing, notify me at
once and we will arrange for the ship
ment. Pigs such as Mr.. Mattox has
are bringing about twenty-one cents
on foot now.-T. j. w. Broom.

AARON wISEMAN To BE
ELECTRoCUTED JUNE 10TH

Jury Renders Verdict of Murder in
First Deeree and Prisoner Hears
His Sentence Entirely Unmoyed
With no signs of tiinehing. Aaron
Wiseman heard his death sentence
pronounced by Judge b. F. Long.
Notice of appeal was given by de-
fendant's council.
When Solicitor Huffman was noti-
fed by telephone at Morganton that
verdict of guilty had been rendered.
he asked the court TO await his ar
rival at O'Clock.
The solicitor had gone home on ac-
count of sickness and the court watt
ed half an hour but he was delayed
on account of heavy rain until after
adjournment. June Goth is date set
for Wiseman's electrocution.
Guilty of murder in the frs degree
was the verdict of the jury that tried
Wiseman, for the murder Of pr Hen
nessee at Glen Alpine on the night OF
January 81. 191sWiseman receired
the verdict with slight emotion.
The jury was out an hour and ten
minutes. Two friends of Or. Hen
nessee went TO the box and shook
hands with the jurors. Court took in
formal recess of half an hour
A singular thing in connection With
the Hennessee-pitts affair is that
when Tennessee was tried years ago
for killing Pitts. one of his children
died. When the Pitts boys were being
tried. their grandmother died and the
day Wiseman was arrested his father
died.

EleeCing the Soldier.

Stars ana stripes.
Here is what an Expedtionary
Force member, writing home to his
father. had to say about the money
grabbing natives among whom the
troops had to make their way for a
time:
They fleece us pitilessly; the
price of everything is eXhorbitant: in
all the dealings that We have with
them they treat us more like enemies
than friends. Their cupidity is une-
qualed; money is their god; virtue,
honor seem nothing to them compar-
ed to the precious metal. | do not
mean that there are no estimable
people whose character is equally no.
BILE and generous-there are many.
but | speak of the nation in general.
Money is the prime mover of all
their actions; they think only of
means TO gain it: each is for himself,
and none is for the public good The
inhabitants along the coast, even the
best Wings, carry provisions of all
kinds TO the English fleet, which is
anchored in GARDENERS bay. and that
because the English pay them well.
THAT last is puzzling, isn't it?
You see the letter was written back
in 1882. The writer was a French
man, Compte de Ferson, an officer at
tached to the F. r. F., which was
then helping the colonies of America
fight their fight for independence.

NEW BRITAIN PAYS HOMAGE
 TO BOYS WHO DIED IN WAR
Mayor Quigley, Rev. w. F. Cook and Rev. J. L. Sullivan Delivere Memorial Addresses at Walnut HI Park Clergymen Assail Men Who Subvert War Conditions For Political Purposes Boston Police Arraigned

Memorial exercises of a most inn presSive nature were carried out in Walnut Hill park yesterday afternoon when the soldiers, sailors and marines of the city, together with relatives and friends, gathered to pay a tribute to those who went out to the great war and will never return. The occa- sion was also the dedcating of the m emorial arch and court of honor. The Philharmonic band played, the New Britain Choral society sang, Fred Latham sang Lest We Forget" the buglers sounded taps and appropriate addresses were given by Rev. Warren F. Cook and Rev J. l.. Sullivan.
 The service men gathered at the state armory and marched to the park, the band playing a funeral dirge and the marchers passing the memorial posts with barred heads. Mayor G. A. Quigley was the first speaker and touched with feeling upon the valor of New Britains youth and their he roic sacrifices. They gave their lives, he said, upholding the glorious tradi- tions of America.

Man, His cruel passion and death. were seen and realized in a new light by the brave boys in khaki as they lay wounded and dying on the battle fields of the western front. I am the Resurrection and the Life; he that believeth in Me, although he be dead shall live, and everyone that liveth and believeth in Me shall not die forever
 What is life? A fitful fever; a mad chase after wealth or honors or pleasure, only to find death at the end; a charge from a muddy trench across a shell-swept hill and then an awful stiffness? Not so, if mans true destiny is to live forever in a happier life with his Creator; not so, if a man is more than the brute, if he has a soul that signs for life that never ends
 The mystery of the Cross on Good Friday is solved by the Resurrection on Easter Sunday, when the Saviour rose triumphant from the tomb. The mystery of the untimely calling away of hundreds of our noble boys at a time when life was full of promise is clearly seen in the Cross of Christ, while the glorious tomb of Christ opens up to our vision the reward for those who, like Him, gave their lives for others.
 Reward Impossible.
 What reward can our country, what reward can we offer commen- surate with the supreme sacrifice of our hero-dead? We feel our helpless ness the martyrs to the cause of democracy are beyond all earthly recompense; and yet we have the Christian hope-and that we fondly cherish-that our Great Christian Captain, our Saviour Jesus Christ, went before them to prepare a home where He shall wipe away all tears and death shall be no more, nor mourning, nor crying, nor sorrow
 If ye break faith with us who die we shall not sleep though peoples grow in Flanders field.' In these inn mortal words of Lieutenant pr. McCrea, of the Canadian Army, lay nestled the message I would bring

In the sudden death of Henry Clark
Wednesday morning, April 30, Southwest
Harbor loses a highly-esteemed citizen,
one who had held positions of trust in
State and town affairs. Always genial and
pleasant in all relations of life, he will be
sadly missed not only in the home, by his
devoted wife, but throughout the COM
munity.
Henry Clark, son of Deacon Henry Il.
Clark and Caroline Richardson Clark,
was born in fremont, Aug. II, 1889 Be-
ginning business in small way, he later
formed partnership with William G.
Parker under the name of Clark & Parker.
This continued until the death OF
Mr., Parker N 1890. Up TO the fall of 1916,
MIR. Clark continued the business alone
In connection with his store business, he
was agent for the Portland S. S. Co. and
the American Express Co.
In politics ne was always publican,
and while not aspiring to office, he served
his party in various ways, being chair
man OF the republican committee for
many years and representative to the leg
islature in 1905. In town affairs, he was a
conspicuous figure, being first selectman
for several years. He always retained
his interest in town business.
By nature he was of retiring disposition.
In later years, after becoming affiliated
with the 1. o. y. F., he derived great
pleasure in the companionship of this
brotherhood, and his interest was no less
in the sister order.
Funeral services were held at the home
Friday afternoon, and were largely at
tended. Rev. Clarence Emery of Mexico,
former pastor of the Manset Baptist
church, officiated. The Odd Fellows and
Rebekahs attended in body. There
were many beautiful flowers.
In these days OF many changes, the loss
OF one of the older and respected citizens,
who has been prominent in the business
welfare of his town is keenly felt. The
Manset Baptist church, which has always
received his friendly support, will miss
his substantial aid.
In 1870 he married Arvilla W. Coggins
Of Lamoine, who survives him. he leaves
one sister, Mrs. Josephine Stanley, three
nieces, Mrs. Ida Cousins, Miss Mary Z.
Parker, Miss Dora Parker, and four
nephews George, Jesse, Jack and William
Parker.
