Kalamazoo pickled celery (one jar

Mortally Wounded When Coanteble
Cherry Fired at Fleelnd Negro.
WERE TRYING TO ARRA8T RAIL
WAY CAR BREAKER*.
Deputy Sheriff H..Grail Harrell
of Wen tern Branch district, died
about noon Friday in King's
Daughters' hospital, of shot wound
received by him about It o'clock
Thursday night near Bain's creek
on the Southern Railway. Harrell
was mortally wounded accidentally
by Constable James P. Cherry,
when the latter fired a shotgun in
an effort to stop the fight of James
Dayis. colored, caught by the
officers in the act of robbing a
freight car. Harrell and Davis,
who was also wounded in the leg
by the same shot which inflicted
mortal injusies to the deputy
sheriff, were brought to the local
hospital about two o'clock yester
day moaning. Harrell's condition
was regarded as serious from the
time the doctors reached him at
Bain's creek, and little hope was
entertained for hie- recovery.
Ia Search el Carbreakcrs
The deputy sheriff and Constable
Cherry went to Bain's creek late
Thursday night with A* L. Lump
kin, special agent of the Southern
Railway. That road has been
troubled considerably of late by
carbreakers, and the mission of the
officers Thursday night was to try
| to apprehend them. Tbey timed
their departure so as to arrive at
the creek shortly before the regu
lar southbound Southern freight
reached the bridge, at 11:45 o'clock.
It was agreed that Harrell was to
stay on the north side of the track,
while (Jherry and Lumpkin were
to remain on the other side, in a
ditch eloee to the rails. As the
train pulled up at a bridge Lump
kin and Cherry saw a bo* of
freight thrown out of one of the
cars, and they realized that the
carbreakers were at work. As the
car movad.past them Lumpkin no
ticed that laizes were piled in the
doorway, but they could discern
nobody in the car. Suddenly they
snied a negro a short distance from
them. 'When be realized he was
discovered be tried to swing on a
grab iron on the side of one of the
cars. Constable Cherry ordered
him to halt. The negro paid no
heed to the command, but ran.
Cherry fired his shot gun at the
negro, who fell. When he and
Lumpkin ran forward they were
surprised to find Deputy Sheriff
Harrell on the south side of the
track. He said he had been shot.
They thought at first he was joking,
but a moment later saw that he
really was wounded. Mr. Lump
kin advised Constable Cherry to go
for a doctor, which he did.
Crowed Railroad.
It is believed that Deputy Sheriff
Harrell saw the negro on the south
side of the tracks about the time
Constable Cherry and Mr. Lump
kin discovered him, and he crossed
over from the narth side, where,
according to agreement, he was to
stand himself. H? was in the line
of Constable Cherry'* fire when he
discharged bis weapon at Davis,
and received part of the load.
Constable Cherry was much
depressed yesterday. He and
Deputy Sheriff Harrell were the
best of friends and were always
towetber on just such expeditions
as that of Thursday night.
Dequty Sheriff Harrell was 28
years old. He is survived by his
father, James E. Harrell. and
three sisters, Mrs. T. A. Beaman
of Port Norfolk, and the Misses
Blanche and Nannie L. Harrell,
the latter two of Gates county,
North Carolina. Five brothers
also survive him; they are Job
Harrell of Port Norfolk, George
F. Harrell of Rocky Mount, N. 0.,
and Aubrey P., W. W. and ,T. C.
Harrell of Gates county North
Carolina.
The body was taken to the un

Bill* dealing with tuberculoeie
are now being considered in 32
?tale legislatures, according to an
announcement made today by The
National Association fur the Study
and Prevention of Tuberculosis,
In 6 states, Alabama, Arizona,
California, Iowa, Tennessee, and
Washington, lulls are being con
sidered which calls for the report
ing and registration of all living
cases of tuberculosis. Alabama.
Connecticut. Iowa, Massachusetts,
Pennsylvania and the District of
Columbia are working for laws
which will require that consump
tives who refuse to observe sani
tary regulations and are a menace
to others may be removed and de
tained in hopitals. In Alabama,
Arizona, California, Illinois, Maine
and Missouri, legislation permitt.
ing the establishment of county or
local hospitals for tuberculosis are
being discussed, and in California,
Illinois, Iowa, Maine, Missouri
and New Hampshire state subsi
dies of $3 to $5 per week per
patient are being asked for such
institutions.
In North Carolina more adequate
provision at the State Sanatorium
for the care and training of her
tubercular sick is under consider
ation. A more or less complete
reorganization of the state health
work is sought in several states,
especially Kansas, Michigan, Min
nesota, Nebraska, Texas and Ari
zona. In Indiana and Alabama
bills providing for full time county
and city health officers are beiug
considered.
As an aid in furthering these and
similar bills the National Asaucia^
tion has issued a phamphlet en
titled "Tuberculosis Legislation."
which contain? a digest of existing
laws in this field with comments
and comparisons of some of the
most important ones.
Our Corn Market ,
The Division of Markets is send
ing out k circular in which is listed
one hundred and fifty-one merch
ants who have reported that they
buy 1,000 bushels or more of corn
annually from outside the State.
Altogether they are purchasers of
970,000 bushels of corn each year
from outside the State. This list
should be of service to growers in
finding a market for their corn. A
large list of grain, apple, butter,
and egg dealers was published in
the January Farmers' Market
Bulletin, copies of whicfi have
been sent out to the growers of
the State.
Many merchants have stated
that they would buy North Caro
lina corn in preference to Western
corn in so far as it could be had,
and that they would pay Chicago
prices for the same grade of home
grown corn as for Western. A
few merchants say they would pay
more for North Carolina corn if
they could obtain it, This is
certainly all that the growers can
expect. Several merchants have
indicated that shippers should be
careful to put the corn up in uni
form grades and in good sucks
with a uniform weight of 112
pounds per sack.
The growers in the Eastern part
of North Carolina who have sever
al hundred thousand bushels of
corn for sale should be able to sell
llbeir corn for fair prices in these
markets if they will first make
satisfactory trial shipments.
' As an evidence of the -value of
the Market Bulletin Mr. Camp
says: "We have just received a
letter from one farmer on our
Bulletin list who says he has al
ready sold over 1,000 bushels of
peasand'had received a&out 100
inquiries in regard to same. The
Bulletin is published for the bene
fit of the producer and is sent free
to al| who apply." ?
