The Members Forum

The Members Forum, which will
meet each month. will discuss such
matters as may come before it and
suggest the things that the organiza-
ton will attempt to do. 1t will also
have a voice in its policy.
Your line of business will be organ
lied into a separate group to take care
of such matters as directly affect your
particular line of business. Your
group will elect its representative to
the Members Forum who will be the
spokesman for the group on such mat
tiers as it especially wants introduced
AT the same time, every member of
the organization is expected to attend
the meetings of the Forum and TO take
part, freely, in all its discussions.
A Referendum will be sent to each
member asking them to inform the or
ganization of the two things they be
lieve most important to be taken up
by the organization. The members
nominate and elect the officers and
directors. There is TO be no slate"
anda the thorough democracy of the
organization is assured at all times.
A Program of Work will be adopted
embodying the ten or twelve most i'm
portant things the members desire
done for the first year. This program
of work or schedule of activities will
be much like a political platform in
that the organization commits itself
TO bend its efforts to do the things
contained in the different planks of
the program. The work is being so
Systematically outlined that the Off
GERS and representatives to the Forum
will be responsible as well as the
committees to which the work is as
signed.

Teacher Training.

The two classes organized for
Teacher Training" at the First Bap-
tist Church last Sunday morning are
growing in enthusiasm. Mr.. ]. A.
Maui, the popular teacher of the
Mems Bible Class, is teaching class
in The Convention Normal Glass
room at 9 a. m. This is quite a
popular class as Mr.. Maui is well
known as fine teacher especially a.
mong the men.
Another book that bids fair to
grow in interest is winning to
Christ" a splendid class book on
personal work This class is taught
by Mr.. Hermon Dean, who is born
teacher. We consider ourselves hap
py indeed to have these efficient men
doing this important work in "Teach-
er Training" All teachers and Of
ficers especially agree to take this
work. Any others who can do so
are most cordially invited to join
with us in this study.
Mr.. Deans class meets at o'clock
Sunday afternoon. Others who de-
sire to take the work and cannot
fit into one of these classes are urged
to name the hour when they can at
tend and we will put the hour to
their convenience.
Yours for Teacher Training,

work was distinctive. Close OBJ
servers realized. that with a fasci-
mating voice Miss Garrison had ar
tistic vision and artistic intelligence
that must soon express themselves in
roles of larger proportions. The
opportunity was only lacking. But it
appeared all at once, two season ago
when at hardly 81 xhours notice she
was summoned TO sing the part of
Queen of the Night" in the Magic
Flute-admittedly one of the most
taxing coloratura roles in all oper-
attic literature. Her night had ar
rived and she rose brilliantly to the
occasion. The following morning
the press acclaimed her a star" as
much for the remarkable feat of re-
sourcefulness as for the glorious per-
formance. 1t clinched her place as
a principal in the Metropolitan fore
es and today she is the only Ameri-
can singer who has ever held the title
of leading coloratura soprano" in
that famous institution. Hear her
glorious voice when she sings at the
hampton Auditorium on the evening
of February 26th.

MOBBING OF NEGRO
BEING INVESTIGATED
Governor of Louisiana Among
The First Called To
Testify.

Plaquemine, La, Feb. 9.-"When
you put the stamp of your approval
on mob action, you invite the kind
of government that prevails in Rus
sia or in Mexico" declared Judge c..
X. Schwing in his charge to the Iber-
vile parish grand jury at the open
ing of a special session of the Dis
trict court to investigate the lynch
ing of George Werner, negro, today.
The special term of court was con-
vened today at the request of Gov.
John NJ. Parker to investigate the
alleged lynching of the negro, who
shot his white employer, a few weeks
ago, and who was later hanged by a
mob after being wounded by officers
pursuing him.
A peculiar angle to the alleged
lynching expected to be brought out
by the grand jury, is the contention
by some parties that the negro died
of the wounds suffered at the hands
of the officers before being swung
up by members of the mob.
Among the witnesses summoned
to appear before the grand jury is
Governor Parker, who issued a state
ment denouncing the lynching of the
negro. The Governor appeared be-
fore the grand jury for short hear
ing late this afternoon. What he
told the jurors is unknown but he
is believed to have reiterated his
former statements that he wanted
lynching stopped and quicker action
taken by grand juries and judges,

NEW YORK TRAGEDY
REMAINS MYSTERY
Relics of Bomb Explosion, Cost
ing 80 Lives, Are Stored
Away.

New York, Feb. 1.-THE origin
of the tragic Wall street bomb eX-
plosion which snuffed out thirty-nine
lives and severely injured hundreds
of others last September appears to
be wrapped in eternal mystery.
When the seventeen boxes filled
with bolts, jagged iron nuggets and
other death dealing miscellany
remnants of the notorious death
wagon" supposed to have hauled the
Internal machine to the scene of the
tragedy-were locked up today in a
police warehouse, reminiscent police
remarked that all the multifarious
flimsy clues apparently had been fol-
lowed to the fading out point.
Since the remains of the old ram
shackle dray have been rusting at
police headquarters, no less than 800
wagon makers, painters and cabinet
makers have come from remote cor
ners of New York, Pennsylvania,
New Jersey and Connecticut in vain
effort to trace it's maker. Many ex-
pressed the opinion that it was an
old butter and egg wagon, built sew
enteen or eighteen years ago. All
agreed it had a cover.
Harness of the deTelict horse which
drew the wagon, as we'll as number
of large slugs 1t was supposed to
have carried, are still at police head
quarters, but they, too, probably will
be taken to the warehouse later.

Public School Trustees Meet,

About S5 trustees of various pub
lie schools of Lincoln county, met
at the Court House yesterday in re-
Spouse to an announcement by Prof.
L. Russell Ellzey.
The main feature of the meeting
was an excellent address by Assist
ant State Superintendent Broom, in
which the speaker impressed the re-
sponsibility of the school trustee. A
mong other things discussed was the
plan of the County School Board to
redistrict schools in such way as to
remove some existing obstacles. The
trustees were urged to be very care
full and use their best judgment in
granting transfers of children from
one district to another.
A permanent Lincoln County Trus-
tee Association was organized with
the following officers:-7
N. F. Jacks, president; c. G. Rawls,
vice-president; e. p Douglass, sec
retary. !.
1t was decided by the association
that meeting. be held at the Court
House the first Monday in September

III Rats Killed in A
Woodpile in Business Place

A few mornings since Mr.. L. l..
Furlow and his assistants killed 27
large rats at his place of business
on West Cherokee street. The rats
were using large pile of wood for
hiding place and billets of wood
were used to kill the rodents as they
were scared from their lair.
The search was instituted for the
rodents on account of an odor be-
lievedo to be a dead one, 1t is be-
lieved that the rats were using the
wood pile as hiding place on ac-
count of it's proximity to restau-
rants and feed near by where they
could easily secure food, as Mr.. Fur
low has nothing in his business place
that would attract them.
Some of the rodents were as large
as squirrels and when piled up at
tracted a crowd of sight seers. There
was only one rat that managed to
make his escape.

FEEBLE WIRELESS
CALLS SAVE CREW
Former German Raider Makes
Gallant Rescue During
Hurricane.

Boston, Feb. 12.-The rescue at
sea of the thirty-six men comprising
the crew of the Belgian freighter
Bombardier as their ship was going
down was described today when they
arrived here on the steamer Mount
Clay. The latter, bound from Ham
berg for New York, but diverted to
this port, was formerly the German
commerce raider Prinz Eitel Freid-
rich. With decks awash and heavy
seas casting upon them the men of
the Bombardier lost two of their four
life boats when they tried to leave
the ship Wednesday morning. The
chief officer managed to put off with
ten men in safety and sixteen men
got away in another boat.
Meantime the Mount Clay had put
over a life boat and took off ten men
who remained, among them Captain
Mathes of the Bombardier, who was
last to leave the ship. She sank
soon afterward, the crew believes.
The Bombardier formerly operated
by the Shipping Board as the Iris,
was carrying a general cargo from
New York to Antwerp when she en-
countered a hurricane Monday and
sprang a leak. Buffeted by the
storm the seams opened and water
flooded coal bunkers and engine room
extinguishing fires, putting radio
apparatus out of commission and
washing coal into the pumps, which
became clogged. The wireless was
restored sufficiently to send out
feeble distress signals that called the
Mount Clay, fifty miles away.

MOB LYNCHES NEGRO
AT SCENE OF CRIME
COnfesses to Assault Upon Aged
White Woman at Ocala,
Florida.

Ocala, Fla, Feb. IA mob
broke into the county Jail here early
tonight and seized negro who had
been arrested earlier in the day on
the charge of assaulting an aged
white woman yesterday, and taking
him to the place where the crime
was committed, hanged him.
The negro had been arrested and
taken to the Jail and the victim of
the attack had been brought there
to identify him. AS the doors were
opened to admit her the mob surged
forward, overpowered the officers and
seized the negro. He was taken to
the woman's home and she was
brought there and identified him as
her assailant. The mob then took
him little way from the house and
hanged him. 1t is said the negro con-
fessed after being identified by the
woman.

Mabel Garrison Appears in Whit
worth Artist Course Feb. 26.

Most professional artistic careers
develop slowly. This is particularly
true of singers, few of whom ever
attain much prominence except after
four, five or six years of public work.
Mabel Garrison, soprano of the Me-
tropolitan Opera Company furnishes
a typical example of this process of
steady year by year growth from an
obsucrity in a church choir to fame
in the country's greatest muscial or
ganization. She is Baltimore girl
and a graduate of the Peabody In
stitute of that city; her course there
included piano, harmony, compost
ion and singing, so that upon leav-
ing she was thoroughly grounded
musician. A church soloist position
was her frst professional engage
ment; this she held for year in
Baltimore. Then ambition brought
her to New York for additional study
particularly in operate work. Alb
solutely unknown, she accepted
place in a company that was produc-
ing opera in English and here she
gained experience and first attracted
attention. Her goal of course was
the Metropolitan Opera and while she
had her eye on it, it, incidentally
had an eye on her. A year later it
beckoned to the young soprano and
she eagerly responded; that was
years ago. For two seasons she &C.
cepted the crumbs" that form the
portion upon which all newcomers
have to subsist, meanwhile making
ready for the day when she might
suddenly be called to fill an import
ant place. Whenever she appeared
no matter how small the part, her
