fruition, but in danger of being queer

election should go wrongly, according
to his reckoning.
Then wouldn't he consider himself

I have no idea that he himself
knows the correct answer to this
question.
Apparently, however, he is confident
of winning before it needs to be an

Henderson snapped Aycock boys
winning streak here last night by TAX
ing the contest % to 81, and the girls
gave Henderson a clean sweep of the
twin bill by getting a 81 to IL verdict
over the visiting girls.
Tom McIlhenny, guard the entire
season, stepped into the vacated for
ward post of Billy Peace, and starred
for the Bulldogs, shooting nine points
to lead Henderson's team to victory.
Tom Rideout, a reserve guard, filled
in to turn in fine performance as
we'll as five points.
Puckett was the best the visitors
had to offer, shooting IL points.
Aycock had the lead at the half
whistle, ITO, but the Bulldogs I'M
limbered during the final half to forge
ahead. The contest waged back and
forth with the outcome in doubt until
the final whistle.
Henderson girls got off to an early
start leading 16 to at the half. Miss
Blake and Miss Daniel led the locals,
the former shooting 10 points, the
latter ten. Miss Wright got 10 points

CERTAIN SIGNS OF
END APPROACHING
Appointment of Calendar
Committees Means AS
sembly Nears End
Daily Dispatch Bureau,
In the Sir Walter Hotel


Raleigh, March 3.-Certain indica-
ton that the current session of the
General Assembly is in its dying
stages is the fact that it has reached
the calendar committee" period.
Except for consideration of bills
which have some time since been re-
ferred to them, the standing commit
tees of Doth House and Senate are
doing no more work these days, with
the calendar committees of both
houses doing all the preliminary in
vestigations.
The way this works out is that
every bill now introduced is referred
by the presiding officer-Speaker
Gregg Cherry in the House and Lieu
tenant Governor w. p. Horton in the
Senate-to the recently appointed
calendar committee, which reads it
and decides whether it shall imnne-
diately be placed on the calendar.
Inasmuch as practically all the
bills now being introduced are purely
saves interminable delay and aggrav-
alton in the House and Senate ses-
sions; because if these bills were still
being referred to the regular COM
mittees the members introducing
them would undoubtedly ask suspen-
sion of the rules and immediate pas
sage. Inasmuch as the rule is that all
bills for which this special "speed-up"
is asked must be read, it is easy to
see that the legislative wheels would
be virtually tclocked from now on.
This calendar committee plan, cou-
pied with a survey of the business
still on hand in both houses, indicates
that the current session will not last
beyond March 20, with a possibility
that it may wind up as much as a
week earlier than that.

of life, she has achieved her ambi-
ton and next week will gradu-
ate at Wilson Teachers College
here with q bachelors degree in
science.
Charlotte, who celebrated her
twenty-second birthday last month,
has been in washington schools
for is years. In June, 1885, she
graduated from Eastern High
school and at that time she had
not been tardy or missed day at
school. When she graduates with
her class on Wednesday night,

main unbroken.
One stormy night in June, 1885,
shortly after the close Of school,
lightning struck the house at 6
Eighth st. s. E., where her mother,
Mrs. Laura A. Simmons, lay i'll
with cancer. The latter escaped
injury from the bolt, but static
electricity ignited the covers OF
her bed.
The following September Char.
lotte's mother died in Garfield
Memorial Hospital. An examina-
ton after death revealed to doc
tors a conclusion. It must have
been caused, they said, by shock
from the lightning.
Such q handicap as keeping
house for her father, an employe
of the Interior Department, while
attending school did not hinder
Charlotte's progress at the teach,

MORE DOLLARS,
VAN ICELAND
AIM ON TRIP
Copyright, 1887, by international
News Service)

BRUSSELS, June IA move
to induce the United States to be-
gin lending American dollars to
Europe again, and to open the
American markets to cheaply-pro-
duced foreign goods, will be
launched by Premier Paul Van
iceland, of Belgium, during his
Forthcoming conference with Pres
ident Roosevelt. He is due in New
York Friday.
The idea of having America
help pay for the economic rehabi-
litation of Europe forms one OF
the cardinal points of the world
economic recovery plan the Bel
gian premier intends to discuss
with President Roosevelt.
Would Open Markets More
Van iceland will argue that
there can be no restoration OF
world economic stability so long as
America continues to sell large
quantities of its goods abroad with
out purchasing similar quantities
in return. Therefore he will en-
phasize that the United States
must be prepared to open its mar
kets to foreign produce to a much
greater extent than at present.
Van iceland will argue further
that the nations which possess
great reserves of gold, such as
the United States, must be pre-
pared to lend that gold to the
nations which do not possess 1t
if the economically weaker states
Of the world are to be put back
on their feet and world recovery
placed on a stable basis.
Loan Procedure Sought
He will suggest that method
of international supervision OF
loans be worked out to protect
the creditor.
AS an inducement to President
Roosevelt to give favorable con-
sideration to the possibility OF
lending money to Europe again,
van iceland will offer the prom
ise of reduced trade barriers and
a freer flow Of international
trade.
Van Zeeland's argument will
have the full support of Great
Britain and France, who are, in
fact, chiefly responsible for his
visit to the United States.
