Mr. Chas. D- Johnston and Family in
Auto Wreck—Nobody Seriously
Hurt and Little Damage.
Last Sunday Mr. and Mrs. Chas.
D. Johnston and family spent the
day with relatives near Reidsville.
On their return, a few miles out from
Reidsville, in passing some people
who were afoot and kept the lion's
share of the road, Mr. Johnston was
forced off to the side. In attempt
ing to regain the center of the road
again the rear wheel dropped into
the side ditch and the car went over,
turning turtle completely. Mr. and
Mrs. Johnston were both caught
under the car, but there were people
living near the spot who saw the ac
cident and came to their aid. Mr.
Johnston suffered a slight brnise of
the left arm, Mrs. Johnston suffered
a bruised shoulder, and of the five
children one or two received slight
scratches. The machine was put
back on its feet and they all return
ed to Reidsville, spent the night and
came home Monday morning in the
car which was very slightly dam
aged. It was almost miraculous to
escape vrith so little hurt to person
and machine.

A Birthday Celebration
On last Thursday (June 29th>Mr.
and Mrs. J. N. H. Clendenin went to
Me bane, the occasion being the 70th
anniversy of Mrs. liebecca Farrells
birthday. She and Mrs. Clendenin
were school mates here at the Gra
ham school for girls before the civil
war. They formed a friendship then
which has lasted around GO years.
It is a beautiful thing to keep friend
ships young and alive, though time
may commit many depreciations upon
the feeble and aging mortal frame.
May these good mothers celebrate
many more such occasions. Both
were born in the same month of the
same year.

Confederate Veterans Annual Din
ner—Good Crowd—En
joyable Day.
The Daughters of the Confeder
acy gave the Confederate Veterans
the usual annual dinner on the 4th.
The rain of the night before cooled
things off and made the day ideal.
The ladies had prepared a boun
tiful dinner of substantial and del
icacies and served It, and once again
the warriors of over half a century
ago gathered around the festal
board and recounted the scenes of
that great struggle. An impromptu
cenßus was taken and it was found
that of the veterans present 12 were
at the battle of Gettysburg and 20
at the surrender at Appomattox.
When they had finished their
dinner the bottling plants
"set 'em up" to cold drinks
and Mr. R. L. Holmes gave all'
tickets to The Mexican Theatre. It
was pleasing to hear them say that
they had bad a most enjoyable day and
delightful dinner. The preparation
was so bountiful that the ladies in
charge asked, any of the veterans ac
companied by their wives or daugh
ters to bring them in to dinner with
them. Trays were also furnished
several old colored men who were
servants to their masters in arms.
The recent departure of our boys
broke into the program for the day,,
Members of the Oneida Band and
Fire Companies had- gone and the
mus'c and Firemen's race had to be
left out. On all sides there was
plenty of nice cold lemonade free for
everybody. The day was a pleasant
one, nevertheless,' and enjoyed by
everyone.
Among the Sick.
Mr. J. G. Longest has been con
fined to his home by sickness for
several days.
Mr. J. D. Albright has been con
fined to his home since Monday by
sickness.
Sheriff R. N. Cook, at St. Leo's, is
reported to be getting along nicely.

Mrs. Barbara Williams, widow of
the late P. H. WilliafnH, died on the
25th of June at her home near Os
sipee in the 71st year of her age.

den's church. She is survived by
two sons, two sisters and three

and GO years of age. His widow
and a large family of children sur
vive him. He was a member of

All the boys from Graham are well
and in good health —there is very
little sickness in camp.
The 3rd has not been exam

on the 2nd Reg. and will reach us
about the last of this week.
The drilling is very light. The
boys at night box and wrestle for
pastime.
On the Fourth the 3rd Reg. went

and the boys had a great time.
The first division of "Skeeters"

WHAT CATARRH IS
It has been said that every third
person has catarrh in some form.
Science has shown that nasal catarrh
often indicates a general weakness
of the body; and local treatments in
the form of snuffs and vapors do little,
if any good.
To correct catarrh you should treat Its
cause by enriching your blood with the
oil-food in Scott's Emulsion w'aich is a
medicinal food and a buildinfc-tonic, free
from alcohol or any harmful drugs. Try it.

People of £l«n*w*,Wlut Will You
Do With Your Life?
Your State and county are en
deavoring to help you protect your
lives from disease. They cannot
succeed in protecting you unless you
help by submitting yourselves for
treatment.
Will you protect it now, since it
costs vou no more than it will cost
you if you don't or will you neglect
it?
Some of you think you are too old,
or for other reasons need not take
the treatment. Yon don't know so
much as that, neither do I. If I
were able by an examination of you
to guaranteo that you would not have
typhoid fever, you would be willing
to pay ten dollars for the examina
tion if it would assure you the im
munity that I am now able to give
you without an examination, and the
treatment is without pain or subse
quent sickness.
The United States governmenl
compels the soldiers to take it for
the saving of tirrffe from sickness and
the loes from the value in human
life. Large corporations do the
same thing for the same reasons. Ii
not your life Worth as much to you
as to any one else ? It is valuable to
no one unless your body is kept in a
condition of good health. Prevent
ing typhoid fever is the way to keep
it healthy.
Think seriously now about whai
your duty to self, family and the
community is with such an oppor
tunity hefore you: Can yon afford
to let it go without your support be
cause some may be waiting to se
what you will do ? It will be a pleas
ure to wait upon you.

Conductor of Campaign
Raleigh Committee Looks Over In
terurbau Line From Alamance to
Raleigh. '
The possibility of an interurban
line connecting Raleigh with the
Piedmont section of the State is
ir.\olved in a special report which
a special commit'ee of the Cham
ber of Commerce will make at an
early date says this morning »
News and Observer. The comit
tee at the invitation of Mr. Junius
Harden, the promoter of the enter
prise, has been taken over the line
as now in operation and has had
indicated to it the route which it
is proposed to have the line follow
if the necessary financial backing
can be obtained.
The line already connects Bur
lington, Haw River and Graham,
ana there aro eight miles of tracK
in operation. I' is proposed to con
nect all the mill settlements in the
Burlington section, including Oasi
pee, Bwepsonviile, Altamahaw and
(th. rs ana la'er to buill the road
on to Raleigh via Carrboro, ana
Chapel Hill.
The members of the committee
are: C. B. Barbee, chairman, Judge
J. Crawfor Biggs, A. R. D. John
son, Prof. Wullnca Riddick, Prof.
Chas. Park, and O. C. Bcarletto.
Members of the committee decline
to talk in advance of their report
to the Chamber, but K is believea
that - the project looks good to
them, certainly to some of them.
That the interurban is going \.o
come in an increasingly large meis
ure in North Carolina, and sooner
than some think, is predicted by
those who have been studying this
phase of the development of the
State. There is more goingg on
than appears on the surfact prob
ably. There are those who connect
the visit last week of Z. V. Taylor,
Charlotte, president of the South
ern tJtilities Company, a corpora
tion, which operates a hundred
miles or so of interurban in South

in this section for the securing of

OF VILLI'S MID
Garranza Declares Word Was
Sent to the Border,
AMERICAN TROOPS MUST 60
Msxlcan Foreign Office Denies Giving
Protection to Outlaw* and Accueea
United Btatee of Bad Faith.
Notice wag served upon the United
States government by the do (acto
government of Mexico that the pres
ence of American troops would not be
tolerated any longer upon the soil ot
Mexico.
This notlQcatlon was contained In a
statement given out by the foreign
minister, which Is interpreted as an
swer to the recent note of President
Wilson,
The Mexican government charges
the United Slates with sending a
haughty and discourteous communica
tion, and the attention of the United
States authorities Is called to the (act
tha Mexicans have b on murdered on
the border where no allnmpt was made
to punish the perpetrators.
The Mexican foreign office lays
blame for the killing of Americans at
Fanta Ysaliel upon the victims for at
tempting to Journey across territory
that was known to be dangerous.-
It Is declared that the pursuit ol
bandits under the leadership of Fran
cisco Villa by Mexicans was taken up
at once aftor they began their depre
dations, and that the duty of stamp
ing out these outlaws rests with Mexi
co and not with the United States,
and adds that the Americans them
selves were responsible for the raid,
In that Americans on the border had
been notified by Oarranza officers ot
the bandits' movements.
In substance, the Mexican govern
ment denies the light of American
troops to occupy Mexican territory,
and declares that the presonce of
United States troops In this country Is
a violation or the national rights. The
statement Kays:
"It seems strange that the depart
ment of state slioni'd show surprlso
and dlsappohitraout for the tone and
character of the note of the twenty
second of Mny, which It calls discour
teous, when the very name department
of state has sent to the constitution
allst govefitment not oue, hut many
notes, not only discourteous but also
haughty, to say the !east.
"During the'same period to which
the note alludes, 110 Moilcans have
been murdered In I/nltel States terri
tory by Amorlcan civilians, although
the two countries were at peace, and
In none of theme cases, although repre
sentations have b"en made to the de
partment of state through our minister
at Washington, the guilty have never
been brought to Justice or punished.
These acts have been committed by
Americans In American territory or by
Texan-Mexicans against the lives and
interests ot Mexicans.
"The government of Mexico cannot
be held responsible for those acts
which have taken place in foreign ter
ritory and which should be charged to
the native') of another coiintry. He
sides, the American government was
well aware of all of the facts before
recognizing the constitutionalist gov
ernment, and It now appears lrreve-
lant or out of place 1o bring then a
fact* forward so as to make a base
for an unjustified refusal to withdraw
the American troops from our terri
tory.
"It Is not true that the Mexican
government or Its authorities had pro
tected or covered tho criminals who
are claimed to hare committed those
depredations and crimes in territory
of the United States. Tb|* can never
be proved by the Amerltkn govern
ment. The constitutionalist govern
ment has done all In Its power, and
has gone beyond all efforts to protect
the foreigners who are to be blamed
to a great extent for persisting In re
malrilng In places where conditions
were not noimal, although Its own gov
ernment, on various occasions, has
asked them not to remain there.
"If our own citizens had to suffer s
good deal on account of actual condl
lions, It Is not just that foreigners
should protend and etpect to be Im
munfc.
