In the .-.u-ticie it - --;g^hool -average death r.ito for .Morehead City ' for the last three years iias been ov er ■)o per cert higher than the aver- Kfre death rate in the Uniiei! States; that ih.- death rate fro mtyphoid fev er there for the last three years has been 2RS per cent hifiher than the average typhoid fever death rate in the United States; that the death rate from diarrl'.eal disease.'! among chil dren (summer complainti there for the lt..=t three years, has been 353 per cent, higher than the average in the United States. Other statements, indicating inattention to measures pre ventive of the spread of disease, are made. The Board of Health expiatiied its reason in making public the result of its investigatio.ns as to health con ditions in Morehead City in a state ment in which it was stated that “ow ing to a greater number of inquiries about health condjitions at various summer resorts, the Board of Health felt that, as guardian of the public health of the State, it could not reas onably be expected to suppress any longer the facts affecting vacationists, whether they took the precaution to ask regarding the healthfulness of Morehead City or not." The Board further stated that there is absolutely nothing inherent about Morehead City that should prevent it from being one of the most healthful places in the State. Practically s.11 the excessive deaths are from pre ventable diseases, nearly all of which are due to the utter lack of any aaci tary precaution, outside of a good public water supply. iCarpenlrrs .Are In Demand at Mt. Airy. Ml. .Airy, June It.—Contractors say that there is more carpenter work in this city than ever before and there are not oiiouprh workmen to supply the demand. Many boys from the city iind state colleges are work ing during vacation as carpenters and the contractors are glad to secure even this labor. Owing to the scar city of carpei?tor.s, none of the Mt. I .\iry conrracto; s will bid for the con struction of the new Southern pass enger depot and this contract will go out of town when given out June 12. Mr. .Viry proposed to have a great celebration on the Fourth of July and there was a meeting of the citizens to night a) the Commercial rooms to perfect plans for even a greater cele bration than the one of last year. A committee consisting of E. C, Biv ens, J. H. Carpenter and John Marion will have charge of the arrange of this arrangements and the citizens are enthusiastic over the prospects for a splendid celebration. Last year’s fourth not only attracted a large crowd but accomplished something in the way of advertising the town. A group of laborers working on the new city streets struck for higher wages yesterday and it is believed that the city authorities will have to increase the wages in order to con tinue the work which has moved along satisfactory. The demands for common labor at the quarries and the various buildings in the city is the di rect cause of this misunderstanding. Contractor J. J. Belton, of this city, is now remodelling the bank building at Pilot Mountain, and when complet ed this will be a modern office for the purpose. yesterday the Borden Farm, one of the beat in the county, was pur chased for $11,000 by Samuel E, shall, of this city, and it is believed that the courts will confirm the sale.

Fi.-ich, prgprietcr of Dalrymple Farm, two iniles south of the city on the Salisbury road, shot and painfully in jured Charlie Workman. The weap on lased was a shpt.gun and the en tire load took effect in thfe fleshy pare of Walkman’s right leg, inflicting a very ugly wound. It all came about in this way: At. the recent term of criminal court Workman was convicted of carrying a. concealed weapon. He was fined on costs and in order to secure the paymeotg ef the fine and costs, -’e bound himself -to work for Mr. Pinch until he had .earned enough money to pay up. Mr. Finch had helped him out of- froubk before jn the same way ar.d he thought b« tras m*king a aafe in'festment. This tiiH«. however, Workman decided that it was too hot to do farm work and he skipped. Monday Mr. Finch e&ate to town and had a capias issued for Mr. Work man. He heard that Workman was visitng his brother at Denton, and the capias was sent to Denton. Mr. Workman was not to be foiind in Jen- ton, .nor elsewhere in the community, though Mr. Finch searched the neigh borhood diligently for hizA. Thursday morning while working about his home, Mr. Finch locked up and saw Workman traveling along the broad highway, I«xington-bound. He ran to the house got his shot gun and followed. Workman saw him and quickened his pace a little. Both were walking and Mr. Finch, being some fralker, was gaining. Workman started to run and Mr. Finch com manded him in ringing tones to halt. Workman only ran the faster and Mr. Finch raised his gun and, fired. Workman ft.l and Mr. Finch immed iately secured hi.s buggy and brought him to town for medical treatment. Dr. Hill and Dr. Terry attended the wounded man. After his wounds had received prop er treatment Jlr, Finch carried the wounded man back to him own home, ■saying that he felt it his duty tu tako care of him, after having shot him- At last accounts Workman was still at the t inch home and was recovering rapidly. Unless blood poison should develop he will be out of the bed in a week or ten days. Mr. Finch is charged with an as sault with a deadly weapon with in tent to kill and his trial i.s set for June 20. an Educational Institute,” Rev. H. lu. Postmaster Flowers Resigns His Of' fice. Mt. Olive, June 10.—Postmaster W- J. Kiowers, of this place, forwarded to First Assistant Postmaster Gen eral D. C. Roper his resignation as postmaster here last night, the same to take effect July 1, 1914. He re~ signs to assume new duties as chief of police here July 2, 1914, to which position he was elected at a recent meeting of the board of city commis sioners, consequently his action in ten dering hi^resignation at this time was no surprise. Mr. Flowers has been postmasxcr here for abcmt 13 years, having taken charge of the office in August. 1901, during which time the affairs of the office have been managed by Mr. Flow ers and his assistants s manner most gratifying to the postoffice de partment; inspectors, who have from time to time mvestigated his ipsn- agement of the office, alwayr givinjr Rountree, Groensboo, N.
