BY HENRY AVERIII. AND
LYNN NISBE'I

Raleigh, April 5.-Welfare depart
ment officials didn't have much to
say about it before its enactment,
but now they are openly quite pleas
ed with passage of what they call the
begging" bill
AS explained by Mrs. w. T. Bost,
head Of the department, it requires
out-of-state solicitors who come to
North Carolina to seek funds for any
welfare or charitable institution (such
as a school for the blind or the like)
to get permit from the appropriate
division Of the North Carolina de-
partment.
Under it we can keep solicitors
from making racket out of begging
funds for sub-standard institutions
out of the State, she said.

Currituck's Gideon BosWOod could
not even get wild fowl shooting pro-
hibited in his county Wednesdays.
Game division officials explained
that it has been shown by facts and
figures that these so-called clay"
days increase rather than decrease
the slaughter of birds. They point out
that where the fowl are shot at every
day they grow very, very wary but
if given a day in which to light and
settle they prove easy victims on the
succeeding day. In other words they
think more birds would be killed ON
q Thursday after shotless Wednes-
day than on both days Of continued
firing.

PHOENIX, Ariz., March l3.--Gus- tave Blair, sixty-nine-year-old car- penter, filed one of Maricopa County's strangest court actions to have himself legally declared as Charley Ross, the boy whose kidnaping from Germantown, Pa, in July, 1874, turned into the na- tion's most baffling mystery.
 The carpenter said his "investi- gation" had proven to him that he is the missing Ross and he had decided to take his case to the superior court.
 He said he had lived many years with an adopted father who later told him he was Charley Ross.
 The originally kidnapped Ross was the four year-old son of Christian K. Ross, wealthy Germantown resi- dent

 The explanation came out when the congregation surrounded him and demanded an answer
 A junior warden, Falconer was to introduce the Rev. William Munds of Corpus Christi, Mex, as guest pastor. He left his house dressed in formal morning attire only to find his automobile had a flat tire.
 He went to the street to wait for a bus, and the bus didn't come. so he resorted to hitch-hiking. The hearse responded to his gesturing, but there already were three persons in the front seat.

EGG DIVIDENDS TO SUM OF 46
 MILLION PAID

SAN FRANCISCO, Mar. 13.-Pa- cific Coast poultrymen, whose in- come from eggs dropped sharply with the decline in prices recently, are keeping an alert eye on pro- duction as a tip to price condi- tions.
 Eggs paid dividends totaling about forty-six million dollars in California, Oregon and Washington last year, producers figured.
 That income came from a pro- duction which was cut down about Is percent for the Coast-about 20 percent in the Northwest and 10 percent in California.
 Production has been going up lately but hereabouts is still lag ging behind last year. The Pacific receipts for 1888 were some 15 per cent under 1887.
 Trade forecasters were guessing it would take California only few weeks to catch up with the 1888 production. For the Northwest they figured it would take longer-per- haps until fall. Should the increase be more rapid, it might unsettle prices further.
 That possibility appeared to have been factor in the year-end drop of IA cents 8 dozen in egg prices. The recovery of cent since then, regarded by the trade as a steady ing sign, left some doubt as to whether prices would hold here, however.
