PLACED IN JAIL
7-12-1 g

Frank Johnson negro from
Green county who was shot about
three weeks ago Sunday night when
the officers found him at his still
which was located on the land of
Mr.. Ap Newborn, was brought from
the colored hospital in this city to-
day and placed in jail for safe keep
ing. The negro is about we'll and it
is feared that if left at the hospital
he might get away.
The shooting was done by Con-
stable II. C. McKeel who with depu-
ties w. G. McKeel and E. T. Bass,
also of Green county went to the
home of Johnson for the purpose of
arresting him for allowing his mule
to run at large. When they arrived
at his home about six o'clock in the
morning he was not there, and they
found him running still in the
woods about a mile from his house.
When the officers walked up John
son opened fire on them with a sim
gle barrel shot gun and struck tree
behind which stood one of the men.

WILL DO NO GOOD.

Senator Overman has wisely seen
fit to call the attention Of the ad-
ministration to the fact that lnVestl-
cations into the treatment of the ne
gro in the south will do the later no
good and in fact harm.
The southern white man is the best
friend every good and law abiding
negro ever had, and is amply capable
to give him his due, and accord to
him his rights without the interfer-
ence of any outsider.
1t is noticeable fact that practi-
cally every colored man who leaves
the south wants to return and does
eventually return, after bitter exper-
fences away from home.
This is the best proof after all that
he knows his friends after he has
tried out those who pretend are his
friends but have poor way of show
ing it.

BOTH ROADS IN TROUBLE

It's pity that both roads entering
Carthage in Moore county are find
ing it difficult to pay expenses ard
desire to discontinue their use. This
will hinder the development of that
section which has shown extreme ac-
tivity and enterprise of late years in
developing a section which prior to
that ime was mainly sand hills.
The peaches and pines of that sec
tion have been advertised far ard
near, until the lands flourish and
much wealth has been added to that
section.
The Norfolk Southern desires to
abandon its line running into Car
thage, a distance of 1922 miles and
the Randolph and Cumberland
twenty one miles in length has been
twice advertised for debt, but has
been stopped by injunctions. The
last one will be heard by Judge Fin
ley on August Is.
1t is said that the only big indus
try on the line of this road is the
Carolina Gravel Company which
ships thirty car loads of sand per
day.

HENRY FORD's RAILROAD.

If Henry Ford had purchased the
New York Central, or the Pennsyl
vania, or any trunk line, it would not
serve his purposes nearly SO well as
the little 400 mile Detroit, Toledo &
Ironton Railroad. which the manu-
facturer now controls, a railroad Off
cials said yesterday. This strip of track
cut a cross section through the heart
OF the railroad map of the country,
crossing seven trunk lines; so Ford
is enabled to carry his goods on his
own line from Detroit for a few
miles, and then turn them over to any
one of the trunk lines for final dis
position. This enables him to get a
large volume of traffic and puts the
road in position to reduce freight
rates 20 per cent. as the recent petit
tion proposes.-New York Times.

WOMEN VOTING IN
VIRGINIA ELECTIONS.

Richmond, Va, Aug. with the
women voting for the first time for
Governor of Virginia, the voting in
the Democratic primary was exceed
nigly heavy at the polls which opened
at sunrise.
In addition to the selection of can
didates for state officers they are also
voting for members of the legisla-
ture. The Sunday Blue laws, bonds
for good roads and better pay for
school teachers are three of the most
important questions for the consider
alton of the Virginia electorate.

MODERN WARFARE.

New York was theoretically wiped
out the other day with bombing op-
erations, by planes which dropped
twenty one tons of gas, filmet and
fragments bombs over the lower city
of New York. Seventeen planes of
different sizes and construction were
used in the operations
General Mitchell in charge of the
operations stated that the manouv-
ers demonstrated the utter helpless
ness of New York against attacks of
this character.
In the fighting the enemy theoret-
ically shot down the defensive air
planes, destroyed our battleships and
established a base on the coast and
then destroyed the city.
Truly modern warfare should cause
every nation to seek to bring about
lasting peace.

TUNNEL TO ROCK
QUARRY FALLS IN

Raleigh, Aug. 2.-The draining of
the rock quarry which began yester-
day afternoon was temporarily sus-
pended today when the tunnel which
was formerly used to drain the
quarry caved in.
The conclusion has been reached
that several three inch pumps will
deliver the water faster than the
single ten inch pump which has been
installed.
So far only about nine iches of
water has been taken from the
quarry, and the marks of the water
may be plainly seen around the
edges of the quarry about foot be-
low the surface
Charles A. Farmer, superintendent
Of the mechanical department of
the Highway Commission express the
belief that it will take this week and
a part of next to drain the big lake.

JELLY FISH ATTACK BATHERS.

,yEILH FISH h11ASh A14A
Almost every season some story
gets into the newspapers regarding
seaside resorts, and the dangers to
bathers who enjoy the waters of the
briny deep.
Sharks, sea serpents, big crabs
who pinch the feet of swimmers, and
other varmints of the sea have been
mentioned but it remained for the
Daily Advertiser of Boston to dis
cover that jelly fish, which sting like
nettles ran amuck among the bathers
off the New England coast, and kept
them from the water.
The victims were described as run
ming from the water screaming, and
had to be taken to hospitals where
lotions were applied and several
hours were required to relieve them
of their burning sensations.
Prof P. H. Daggett and daughter
Jane of the University of North Caro-
lima it is stated were among the suf-

DISAPPEARANCE OF DUNN
YOUNG MEN A MYSTERY

Dunn, Aug. 1-Friends here are
seriously concerned over the mystic
rious disappearance of Herbert S.
Balm, world war veteran, all-around
athlete and employee of the Durham
and Southern Railway. He has not
been seen here for three weeks and
all of his clothing save the overal1s
he used in his work are in his room
at the boarding house of Mrs. Julia
Denning.
Balm is known to have had a cen
siderable sum of money on his per-
son about the time he was last seen
by friends here. A local taxi driver
says he carried him to a certain in
tersection of roads three miles from
town and was told to meet him there
some hours later. The driver re-
turned at the appointed hour, but
was not met
At local police headquarters it
was stated that it was probable that
warrant would be issued for a Ger
tain well-to-dQA farmer whose home
the young man is supposed to have
visited If no information as to his
whereabouts is procured soon.
Carlisle Balm, another hero of the
world war has searced over the State
for his brother. He made no com
plain to the police until he had Wis
tied every probable point at which
the young man had been accustomed
to stay.
Herbert Balm, before and since the
war, has been one of most depend
able baseball players of the local
team. His services have been much
in demand in the surrounding conn
try He was considered one of the
strongest men of the Dunn district
and it is certain no assassin got the
worst OF him unless through foul
play.

THE FEDERAL
RESERVE POSITION.

hESEftt Il POSITION.
1t has been apparent again from
this weeks Federal Reserve state
ments that. while the New York re-
serve ratio is rising that of the West
ern and Southern banks is, as a rule,
either stationary or lower. Thus the
reserve percentage at Kansas City
has declined 8 3-4 per cent. during
the last week, and at Dallas and
Minneapolis virtually is unchanged
at the low figures of 40 ga and SO
1-S, respectively. Another striking
fact is that, while the systems total
gold reserve increased $22,9OO,OOO
during the week, the New York
Banks gold reserve increased S32.-
900, showing that New York was
not only getting all of the weeks
gold imports, but was drawing on in
terror districts. Comparing the state
ments with those of June 1, the
eastern reserve ratios have risen to
IL per cent, and Chicago's 3 per
cent. but Atlanta shows a decline of
per cent. and Minneapolis a de-
cline of 3, where as Dallas and st.
Louis virtually are UNCHANGED. The
gold reserve at Dallas, Minneapolis
and Atlanta is considerably lower
than it was at June 1. All this
seems to be evidence of continued re-
payment of debt by interior districts
to the Eastern banking communities.

lecting its due bills from Europe and
