Mr. David A. White of Mebane Kill
ed in Aoto Wreck Sunday.
The death or Mr. David A. White
Sunday in an auto wreck was a
shock to his friends throughout
the county. He and a party of
friends were returning in his au
tomobile from church a* Hawfields,
some four miles south of Mebane.
He was accompanied by Miss Mary-
Hooker of Durham who sustained
three broken rib* and a severe
bruise in the back, and Mr. McCoy
Patton and Miss Margaret Darby
of Maryland who were thrown out
and sustained only slight injuries.
In attempting to dodge a bad
place in the road the car skidded
and turned turtle. Mr. White was
caught by the heavy car ana
crushed about the breast. He Uvea
only about twenty minutes after
the accident.
Mr. White was a son of the lat4
Stephen A. White, one of the coun
ty's most prominent citizens during
his lifetime. He was in his 66th
year. Over thirty years a»o he
and his brother, W. E. White, start
ed a lumber business and soon
thereafter founded the White Fur
niture Co., which has jj rown to be
one of the largest furniture fac
tories in the South, as well as one
of the best known this side of
Grand Rapids. No citizen has done
more for the growth of the town
than "Dave" Whiter He was full
of vim and push all the time and
enthusiastic in whatever he en/ag
ed. He was loyal to his town, his
friends and his church. The bu
rial took place in the cemetery at
Mebane Monday afternoon and was
attended by a large number of
friends and relatives, -t
Besides his aged mother, there
survive three brothers, William E.
White, 8. Arthur White, and J.
Sam White, all of Mebane; two sis
ter, Mrs. Charles Millender of
Asheviile, and Mrs. W, A. Murray
of Mebane. •
Mr. B. R. Sellars, Prominent Citizen
and Business Man, Dead.
The county has sustained a dis
tinct lotto in the death of Benjamin
Rtfiney Sellars, who passed .away at
his home in Burlington Tuesday p. m.
about 8 o'clock. For some months
his health had not been vdry good.
Sunday night *he was stricken with
paralysis and never rallied. The
funeral was conducted from the
Presbyterian church yesterday after
noon at 5 o'clock by his Pastor, Rev.
D Mclver, in the presence of a large
concourse of friends, and the inter
ment was in Pin; Hill Cemetery
Mr. Sellars was the eldest son of
the late Dr. B. A. Sellars and was 61
years of age. He was born near
Long's Mills, Randolph county. Ha

Kansas; John Sellars of Pennsyl
vania; Mrs. Mary Walker, Mrs. J. H.
Brooks of Burlington; Mrs Eliza
White near Mebane; Mrs. 11. U.
Jordan of Gastonia.
More than thirty years ago Mr.

Son and ever since he has been the
judicious business mau that has
made the,house the leading dry
goods house of this county. Mr.
Sellars f r map' - years has been prom
inent/in the business life of Burling
ton and has helped to direct the
business of some of the strongest in
stitutions of his town. He was at

County Commissioners and at the
time of his death was Chairman of
the Board of Trustees of the Cit>
Graded School. •
GASOMNE MUST OET LOWER.
Washington Dispatch.
A fall in the price of gasoline
may be looked for at any time. The
price in Kansas at the refineries
has already fallen from 21 cents to
17 1-4 cents.
A period of over production of
crude oil, which brought about low
price of gasoline more than a year'
ago, is about to be experienced
again.
These are a few of the stated
ments that startled the Pederal
Trade Commission at the second
day of its hearing of the views of
the oil producers and Jobbers and
refiners on the high price of gaso
line.
Most of the statements along
these lines were made by T. J.
James, secretary of the Association
of Refiners of Kansas and Oklaho
ma.
It was when he was asked re
garding the remedy for present
conditions that Mr. James stated:
"Present condition* will proba
bly remedy themselves TM gov
ernment is to blame for them, so
far as Oklahoma is concerned.
The condition* are remedying
themselves. The supply and de
mand is now about equal. But I
want to predict ihat a period ol
over production in a/ain facing the
oil men.
"Within the last two week* the
price of gasoline f. o. b. the refin
eries has dropped t from 21 ct*. to
17 1-4 cts. This drop has not yet
manifested itself in the price of (he
jobber or retailer. It must fall
more than that."

Sleepbg Porches in Demand.
Stafe Health Bulletin.
"If there's one thiug that
recommend* a house more than
another these days, whether it is
for sale or rent," says a real estate
dealer, "It is the addition of a
sleeping porch. Jp fifteen years,"
said he, "onr ideas have been
turned up side down as to this one
thing. Today archltectsand build
ers find aleeping porches almost
necessary adjuncts of new houses
so great is the demand for them,
whereas ten yean ago an out-door
sleeper was branded either as a
crank or a consumptive, and a
bouse with a sleeping porch WHS
most particularly avoided."
Coutinuii%, the speaker said:
"I could rent more houses if they
just had the means of ont-door
sleeping connected with them. I
find that the better class of rent
ers or those paying higher rents
are willing to pay extra for Homes
having sleeping porches or places
that can be converted into such
arrangements. Recently a family
moved here from Oregon and the
husband came to me to rent a
home. His first' demand was a
home with a 'sleeping gallery',
and when 1 had shown him all the
houses I Had to rent, he said,
VW hat is the matter with you folks
down here that you don't have
these arrangements ? Why we
haven't slept in doors for six years,
till coming to your State, and yet
you have by far the more favor
able climate for out-door sleep
ing. One would think that you
had not gotten away from the old
idea that night air is poisonous.'
I couldn't offer an explanation as
to why we didn't have more ar
rangements for out-door sleeping,
but I could truthfully tell him
that he looked the part. I never
saw a healthier looking man and
he was no crank, either."

League of New Jersey, has sen'
communications to 11. A. H. Hop
kins, State chairman, and Kverett
A. Colby, who led the New Jersey
delegates at the Progressive con
vention, urging them to indorse
Wilson for the presidency iu the
event that Roosevelt finally re
fuses to run.
Hugh T. Ilalbert, former chair
man of the Minnesota State Pro
gressive committee, says the Pro
gressives will make no move to
support Charles Hughes until he
had made clear his attitude re
garding the Qerman-Ainerican in
fluence. Under no conditions,
says Mr. Halbert, will the Progres
sives support Fairbanks
Bounty Proposed for Navy Enlist
ments.
With a view to* speedily enlist
ing the navy up to war strength
and getting our ships now detain
ed at navy yards because of short
age of men into active fighting
trim at once, so far as complement
is concerned, Congressman E. J.
Hill has introducsd an amendment
to the naval bill providing that
the sum of $3,476,200 be placed at
the disposal of the bureau of
navigation during the continu
ance of the war in Europe, for use
as bounties for enlistment at a
rate not to exceed SIOO for each
man enlisted during such period.

Certainly, an Mr. Wilson says,
the world ia eager for peace, but
the belligerent nations are going
to be extremely coy about con

Justice Hughes' latest political
opinions were ottered eight yearn

"EUROPEAN WAR HORRORS.
Like Madmen in Volcanic Eruption.
A French staff officer describes
the situation v around Verdun re
cently in the following graphic
■tyle: „
Between Sunday morning ana
noon Tuesday we reckoned the
Germans used np 100,000 men on
the west Mouse front alone. That
is the price they paid for the re
capture of our recent gain* and the
seizure of our outlying position*.
The valley separating Le Mort
Homme from Hill 387 was choked
with b6dies. A full brigade was
mowed down in a quarter hours
holocaust by our machine guns.
The scene there la appalling, but
la dwarfed in comparison withthe
fighting around Douaumont. West
of the Meuse, at least, one dies
in the open air, but at Douaumoot
la the horror .of darkness,, where
men fight in the tunnels, sream
ing with the lust of butchery, deaf
ened by ahella and grenades, stifled
by amoke.
Even the wounded refuse to
abandon the struggle. As though
possessed by devils they fight
on until they fall .senseless from
loss of blood. A surgecm in a front
line port told me that In a re
doubt at the south part of the
forts of 200 French dead, fully half
had more than two wounds. Those
he was able to treat seemed utterly
insane. They kept shouting war
cries and their eyes blazed, and,
strangest of all, they appeared in
different to pain. At one moment
anesthetics ran out, owing to rtie
impossibility of bringing forward
fresh supplies through the bom
bardment. Arms, even legs were
amputated without a groan, and
even afterwards the men "seemed
not to have felt the shock. They
asked for a cigarette or how the
battle was going.
Our losses in retaking the fort
were less heavy than was expect
ed, as the enemy was demoralized
by the*cannonade—by far the most
furious I have ever seen from
French guns—and also was taken
by surprise. But the susequent ac
tion took a terrible toll. Cover
was all blown to pieces. Every
German rush was preceded by t\fffi
or three hours of hellstorm, arta
then wave after wave of attack in
numbers that seemed unceasing.
Again and'TJgflln ths defenders
ranks re renewed.
Never have attacks been pushed
home so continuously? The fight at
Cemetery Hill at Oettysburg was
no child's play, nor for Hougomont
at Waterloo,, but' here men* have
been flung 5,000 at a time at' brief
intervals for 48 hours. Practically
the whole sector has been covered
by a cannonade compared to which
Gettysburg was a hailstorm ana
Waterloo mere fireworks. Some
shell holes were 30 feet across, the
explosion killing 60 men simulta
neously.
Before our lines the German dead
lie heaped in long rows. I am told
one observer calculated there were
7,000 In a distance In a dis
tance of 700 yards. Besides, they
cannot succor their wounded,
whereas of ours one in three at least
are removed safely to the rear.
Despite the bombardment supplies
keep coming. Even the chloro
form I spoke arrived after 4n
hour's delay when two set* of bear
ers had been killed.
The doggged tenacity needed to
continue the resistance far surpass
es the furious plan of the attacks.
We know, too, the Oermans cannot
long maintain their present sacri
fices. Since Saturday the enemy
has lost two, if not th tm-, for each
one of us. Every bombjfement
withstood, every rush «u»eketl,
brings nearer the moment of inev
itable exhaustion. Then will come
our recompense for these days of
horror.
