lI1r the Charges of tlie Stanly Enter-!
lrise Danger of a Suit Being j
jjrouglit Against the Stanly Enter- !
prie. -',
Nothing has ever caused such
a turmoil amongst the Knights of
Pythias lodges as has the state
ment in the ' Stanly Enter
prise, last . week that it was a
drunken set and that .they were
ordered out of the car where
some ladies were seated.' - State
ments, can and will be secured,
they- say, from the conductor
and train crew and from passeng
ers that they were gentlemanly
on the train, that there was no
drinking, and that no one was
ordered out of the car. ', A
Standard reporter was in the car
almost all of the time and saw
nothing to verify the statement
made by the Stanly Enterprise.
The Knights had- a, special
meeting .here Saturday f nigit in
which important and decisive
resentment was taken against
the article published by the
Stanly Enterprise, reflecting up
on the character and conduct pf
Py thians from , this and other
lodges. . . : ,v . . j
The Salisbury Sun of Satur
day contains the following: .
"The Knights are greatly
aroused over the matter and
there is talk of instituting a suit
for liber against Editor Bivins,
of the paper.
A Sun man, who is a Pythian,
was on board the train and in
the car in which the bad conduct
is alleged to have, occurred and
saw nothing of it." :
fi the Hands of the Cheerful Workers.
The Cheerful Workers of the
Baptist church delighted a
erowded house Sunday evening
with their Missionary exercises.
The children showed good train
ing. This Society has only been
organized nine months and num
bers over 100 members. They
deserve much praise for their
enthusiastic work. Dr. Barron,
of Charlotte, held the attention
of the congregation with an ad
dress on the importance of chilf
dren's work in the church, and
the great work of the Missionary
age, in which we are living.
These exercises are given by the
children every fifth Sunday
night, " and are enjoyed by the
large - congregation which al-
encourages them by their
v rs
presence.
