Whenever Hick ory undertakes to carry a matter off, she generally does it well; and a proof of this fact is to be found in the meeting here today of the re union of the Classis of the Reformed Church in North Carolina. The crowd began gathering on the campus nf niarpmnnt. College at 11 A. M. Some 250 persons were in attendance in the morning, and about 50 more n "T -til IS XX 111 ti til xx x & wu.i j. i which, as usual, Was an hour and a half latp.

The orphanage has recently been undertaken ty the Reformed Church, and the need of it, the benefit it will be to the church, its necessities, the time when it will be ready for occupation, its situation and prospects, etc. were fully ex lilained by Dr. Lyerly. The orphan age is located at Crescent, and, in 1 addition to the site first bought, a large body of land, which will make a fine farm for the uses of tho insti- ti'tirvn rina hppn rairchaspd n r im n- ing the first lot.

Dinner was served in the magnifi cent grove of oaks surrounding the college at 1l30, and a finer picnic dinner your correspondent has never assisted in demolishing. Such good country ham, fried chicken, pies, custards, and above all, such cakes. Catawba women evermore know how to cook. All that multitude were fed, and still remained a number of bas ketsfull. They would have fed all The News' staff with joy. And what ?n undertaking that would be. After dinner the crowd adjourned to the chapel and here was held a discussion as to the place where the next meeting should be held, and who should make the decision, also as to whether a permanent place should be chosen. Decided to leave the matter to the committee appoint ed for this purposp. Then followed some fine music. Profs. Losh and Weaver, of Catawbc College sang, "Oh, How I Love Thy Law," as 3. duo, followed by a male quartette, "More Than .Conqueror," Messrs. Geo. McCorklo and C. E. Wehler, Profs. J Lcsh and Weaver, then a solo by Prof. Losh, with a solo from Mrs. Dr. Shuford as the finale. The whole day was feast for body and spirit. The ten days' meeting held here by Rev. Frank Siler, of Statesville, closed last night. The attendance lias been excellent and much interest has been manifested, both by church members and the unconverted. Mrs. Siler came up yesterday . and ad dressed tne ladies in the atternoon. The impression made by Mr. Siler has been most favorable, and it is hoped that much good will perma nently result from his preaching. Perhaps you don't care for a weak heait in hot weather. THE COTTON MILLS OUTPUT Oil SHORT Scarcity of Labor Causes Strange Situation Hereabouts. Mills Count on Only 80 Per Cent of Capacity in Selling their Goods to Buyers. tuation has been devel oped among the mills of this part of the south as a direct result or me scar fitw nf lahnr. Stated in a few words this condition ammints tn n reduction of 80 per cent of the average capacity of the cotton mills, and as a result nearly an 01 me mills offer on contracts more tnan Tn other words a 20,000 spindle this nrnnortion of their capacity. mill will not sell goods on contract up to a given date over the amount that h tnrnprl out under ordinary conditions by a 16,000 spindle miu run nine' full helD. This is rominer Drettv close home to the pockets of the manufacturers and they having realized it win oner me So per cent of their full capacity and not a pound ot yarns or a yard or cloth over this. The 20 ner cent loss is considerable, anri of rnnrse renresents amoncr manj millions in mills a loss of thousands of dollars in money tied up m machine ry that cannot be utilized to its iun pxtpnt. Hannilv the mills, that is the yarn mills, are well supplied with contracts for everything they can make lor tne next ten weeks or up to JNovemDer l, and arfl runnine to their fullest extent with the help on hand to meet these demands. Still the mill with the 20,000 spin dles is selling: as if it were a mill with 16,000 and the mill man is the loser. There are no advantages in a con dition like this, and the solution of the nuestion of how to et sufficient help is paramount with the entire manu facturing cotton interests both north and south. Tho mills notwithstanding, as will be observed from the above, are well supplied with orders and while few havp pnmi2h lahor to run at night. the others are concentrating on day running which is more economic per haps as lighting, etc., are thereby laved. The lahor shortage situation in the south is a new problem that has de veloped within the Dast five vears and the entire rmintrv will have to strug gle with the problem before a settle ment is attained. DR. ROBERT J. BREVARD. Directors of Fair Association Pass Resolution in Memory of Him. A called meeting of the directors of the Mecklenburg Fair Association was held at the offices of the association last night for the purpose of passing resolutions commemorative of the late R. J. Brevard, who was president of the association. Dr. Brevard's work as an officer of the association was high ly appreciated by the officers and the directors of it. The following resolu tions were adopted, copies of which were ordered spread uponthe minutes, sent to the newspapers of the city and to the members of the family of the deceased: "After a gallant ficht for life, Dr. Robert J. Brevard succumbed to a malignant attack of disease on August 11th, 1906,. at his home in this city. "For many years Dr. Brevard had been an active, useful and influential factor in our Commonwealth, con tributing freely of his means, talent and ability to the industrial, commer cial and social upbuilding of the com munity; and, by his example of pa triotism and civic virtue, encouraging his fellow man to the exemplification of ideal citizenship. "From its inception, Dr. Brevard has been president of this association, and whatever merit it has met, whatever value it has been to the country at large, whatever pleasure it has af forded the many thousand of visitors, has been the result of his wisdom, untiring effort and personal endeavor. "As a practicing physician he ex celled, and the remembrance of a multitude to whom he administered in their suffering will be a lasting encomium. ."His personality was such that one could repose a confidence, share a joy or unburden some great sorrow and feel alike the response of heart that knew and loved humanity. ' "He was taken just as his life ap proached the zenith of earthly activ ity, just when the rich storehouse ot his intellect was of greatest benefac tion, and too, just when hope beckon ed to fruition in the grand consu mation of a useful and honored life. "None knew him but to love him, to name him but to praise him, and so in human estimation we write of him 'as one who loved bis fellow man,' and in its sequel, through his sublime Christian faith, his name will be shown foremost among .'those whom love of God hath blest."
