ITALIAN LAWS HOLD.
UP ITALIAN COLONY
That's Why Mr.. Pappano Hasn't
Been Able TO Get His Country
men Down to. PerqUimanS

It's long wag from Southern It.
ally to PcrquimanS County, but not
too far for the laws of Italy TO
reach over here in effect and block
indefinitely biz colonization scheme
which might have placed hundreds of
Italian farmers on ono of the biggest
tracts in Eastern North Carolina.
Along in August there came to
this part Of the country OreStC Pap
pano, an Italian promoter Of Beth
lehcm. Pa. who sought to establish
here colony Of Italian farmers
Thru the Carolina Real Estate Co.
Of this city, negotiations were made
with a large landowner in Pcrquim-
ans County, to supply the land if
Mr.. Pappano would supply the colon
lists.
When Mr.. l'oppauo went back TO
Pcnnsy aud sought to recruit
his colony from among his country
men in Italy, it developed that the
Italian government had fallen in love
with its farming people and was not
anxious TO have them leave. Italy
doesn't mind losing its no account
fellows who can be more exploited
iu the American swcatshopS and
mines, but when its farmers begin
to leave, then they must begin fill
ing out lot of red tape.
The Carolina Real Estate Com
pany says plans for bringing the col
ony here have not. been given up.
but that it may be several months
before any satisfactory arrange
mcutS can be made. In the mean
time they arc still working on the
project and with the Italian Embassy
aiding them at Washington, things
may begin moving again soon. ac-
cording to word from his cXccllcncy

PUBLIC UTILITIES MAY
NAVE ANOTHER OFFER
But the Aldermen Have FlatIy Re.
fused to Consider Anything
Over S25O,00O Limit

That the ownership of the public
utilities may consider making anoth
Cr offer of their plants TO the city,
at an early date, is cleaned from the
conversation of John r. Hill OF Bal
timorc, large stakeholder and former
President Of the companies, wh) left
this city yesterday, after having been
here several days considering the Sit
uation.
AS matters now stand, the Alder
men have flatly refused to submit the
matter to further consideration or 10
arbitration. The Board of Aldermen
gave the owners 4 hearing Friday
right, but after much discussion Of
the matter the meeting was closed
and the Aldermen told the compnn-
les TO submit their proposition in
writing, for the consideration Of the
city.
The doings at Friday nights meet
in. would have been j tircEUEle rep
c:;tion of an old story, but for the
vigorous arguments of tie owners
and the replies Of the Aldermen. The
Aldermen cmphatically refused 10 so
over the ground, or to consider fur
thcr negotiations at figure in OK
cess Of their former offer of $780,
000. The companies didn't think this
a fair offer, but agreed to submit the
settlement of the question to the To-
cal judge, Superior Court judge,
the Governor. or the State Corpora
ton Commission.
There is 10 contemplation on the
part Of the Aldermen to reopen the
case, stated both Mayor Goodwin
and Councilman i. ii. Williams TO
this newspaper to-day. Mr.. Williams
expressed his opinion that the city
should not stand by and see the COM
pauics' properties coniiscatcd, but he
does not think the city should buy
more than what is needed as q nCu-
clus for Il new system and what can
be economically used II think it is
due the companies to get something
for their properties" said Mr.. VIII
liams, but i don't think q useless
burden of u hundred thousand dol
lars, or more perhaps, should be

MAY MAKE CHANGES
IN SEVERAL FIELDS
Church Folks Here Not Anxious to
Part With Their Ministers

With tine departure of Rev. II. l..
MYERS. Rev. y. II. u. Wilson. Rev.
f.. L. Stack, ard Presiding Elder K.
III. Willis for the Methodist confer
cnce which opens Wednesday in Ra-
leigh. many church members are
speculating as TO what pastors may
return to their present charges for
another year.
Mr.. Willis has spent his allotted
four years in this district and will
BE- obliged to accept 4 call from some
other field. Mr.. Myers has spent
only two years here and would be
permitted under the customary rules
of the conference TO spend two more.
But it 50 happens that one Of the
secular colleges has been after Mr..
Myers 10 hold down 4 chair IN the
faculty, and some fields that are lar
ger than thiS one are anxious rot
him also. During his paStoratc he
has popularizcd himself with his
church and the cOmpuuity, and as
the head of the kiwanis club he has
delighted the membership so that
both church aud club are especially
anxious to retain him for another
year at least.
Rev. Mr.. Wilson has spcnt only
one year With the First Methodist
church of this city, and it is not eX-
pccted that any serious obstacle Will
arise to keep him away for the com
ing year at least. The Methodist
Church having only just gotten un-
drrwav in its new home, it is expect
cd that during this period the lead
crship of someone more or less Ia.
miliar with the field is to be desired
for Il while longer.

DIED SUDDENLY IN
HER HUSBANDS ARMS
Death of Mrs. John L. Wells Gives
City Shock

Without warning und with no ex-
preston of pain except one short,
sharp, exciting cry to her husband,
Mrs. Minnie Lou Wells, SO years old,
wife Of John l.. Wells of this city
succumbed and died in her husbands
arms AT their home on Selden st. at
1890 o'clock Monday night.
No death has so shocked Elizabeth
City in long time. Mrs. Well was
apparently in good health. There had
never been any suspicion of heart
trouble. She had been about her
household work Monday as usual,
had been down town with her huS-
band that night and had helped the
children with their school lessons be-
fore retiring.
Her husband had already retired
when Mrs. Wells came to bed. She
spoke to him about some common
place incident in very natural way
and there was no thought Of death
in the household. Suddenly she cried,
oh, John" She lifted herself from
her pillow, her head fell forward mp
on her husbands breast, her hands
rlcnchcd, there was Il convulSion, her
eyes closed, breathe ceased and she
never rcgained consciousness. Her
heart WAS fnintly bcatinr when plV-
si"iamS arrived, but she was already
dead.
Mrs. Wells is survived by her hus-
band, Il well known job printer in
this city. and by five small children.
She was Il daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Frank W. Bell, of this city. She
was a serious, kind, generous, we'll
poised, wOmanly woman who was
loved and respected By everyone who
knew her.
