Pa., will deliver his i>opular lecture on the Passion Pipy of Obermergau in St. Mark’s Lutheran church tomor row night for the benefit of the Young People’s Guild. The lecture is illustrated v,ith stereo))ticon pictures made from photographs taken on the ground. Mr. Carney sj>ent sev eral years in -Europe after graduation from college, and attended the Pas sion Play. His exnosition of the play is interesting and instructive. He is making a short tour of Piedmont North Carolina and is meetinfr with gratifyinsr success. He lectured at High F'oint to an overflowing house, and both there and at Asheboro was asked to repeat the lecture. He has given it twice in Concord with mark ed success.

Home Institution Merits Pationage A statement showing the condition of the Piedmont Fire Insurance Co., of this city, on .lanuary 1st, 1911, is published in this issife of The News and furnish very interesting reading for those who are interested in the growth and prosperity of home insti tutions that add wealth to the city. This statement shows that the com pany owns total assets valued at $296.- 126.21, a net surplus of $116.4^,7.54. and ;i surplus, as regards policy holders, of .‘?216.4.17.54. A comi)arison of these figures with those in the statement of the itreceding year shows that the com- i)any has made a splendid growth in the past twelve months and this growth indicates an Inreased patron age from home people who realize that dollars spent with this company stay in Charlotte besides bringing a maxi mum amount of protecii'>n. It 'is a fact that the profits arising from this business are loaned to Charlotte peo ple and used to build homes and de- velo)) indu.'it 1 ies and knowing this, it is but natural that the people of this city and soction should favor it with a patronage that makes possible such statement as The News prints.

Street Sweeper fJun Over. Chas Odom a colored man employed by the city as a street sw^eeper, was rim over by an automobile, belonging to and driven by Mr. J. P. Sloan, of !uno, yesterday about 9 o’clock The negro was painfully but not seri ously hurt. He w^as struck hy the left fender and kjiocked down. The front wheel passed over his body. He was taken to his home on South Poplar street and immediately attended by Dr. Hawiey, city physician. His injuries were found to be one ankle sprained, both knees sprained and lacerated, and one hi]) badly bruised and torn. The acoident occurred in front of Major .1. (i. Kiiird s on South Ti>on street. Mr. Sloan was coming up Try- on in his automobile, having left home for the purpose of spending the day in town. He saw three of four negroes adead of liim. sweeping, and blew his horn as he approached. Odom turned and saw the car. In stead of standing still, he commenced dodging, and as lie dodged Mr. Sloan and car dodged, also and the result was the accident as recorded above. Mr. Sloan was very much distressed over the affair. He took the negro up in his car and drove him to his home, and then ’phoned for Dr. Haw'ley. Strange to say Odom escaped with no broken bones. At last accounts he was resting comfortably. Seven SplesidM € &rU€i: .*» Elegant Fountain And Sign Placed ' The remodeling of Bowen’s Drug store goes rapidly toward completion.

M. Green & Sons, of Phil adelphia. It extends half the length of the south wall. The back bar is of solid mahogany, encasing a large plate glass mirror. To each side of the mir ror are candy cupboards. Four large onyx columns and’ art glass furnish the decorative effect. There are 20 Fynips, and the fountain has a capacity of 3,000 glasses a day. The fountain is a fac sniile of the one in Wana- maker’s Philadelphia store. One of the largest and handsomest electric signs in Cliarlotte has been placed over the two entrances to the store. The word “Bowmen’s” is over "the Trade street door, and “Drug Store” over the Try- on street entrance. The sign was made by the Charlotte Sign Company. The illumination from the sign is beautiful.
