W Murdoch Wiley States That the Com pany "Will Meet Every Obligation Promptly An Error as to Mr. Chas. Smith Running a Company Store. It will be remembered that one day last we gave notice that several parties had taken .out attachment papers on the property of the Union Copper Mine Co. of this county, which is near Gold Hill. We gave .the names of the persons but erred in the statement that one of the gentlemen had been running a company store. This is due to . our informant, but nevertheless, the statement is true that these papers were taken out by the gen tlemen and served by our sheriff. On Sunday the following tele gram came from one, W. Mur doch Wiley, who is one of. the managers of the mine, to The Standard: . "Kindly correct your state ment that Chas. Smith, of Gold ' Hill, .fs running -Union Copper . Mine store.. Wo have no com pany store and Mr. Smith is not, never has been and never will be connected in the slightest degree . with our company. Tho mine is inbetter condition than ever and ' we will meet every obligation promptly." We of course .give Mr. Wiley the space to correct the uninten tional error, which is only an an error to the proper proprietor of the store and does not alter the statements we made as to the unpaid accounts. A Small Boy Caused the Death. There is a rather strange case at Gastonia, where it is found that an eight-year-old boy caused the death of a negro, Will Per kins, a short time ago. The ne gro was descending- into a mine and fell t from athe bucket 'dead. The causof'hte falling from the bueketi had blaen. a mys tery, but ti$li$f tfWff he passed .3iyrtblf'mieb4 faftd pushed a plank;j intq Jt Jusj to hear it hit the bottom. The mag istrate has release jjiinron count of his age, but haar written the full-particulars to tHe solic itor.. ' A.Yonng Man of Onr County Dead. On last Saturday" the remains 'f George Moose, son of Mr. Henry "Moose, were interred after the funeral preacfied -at Mt. Olive church in tho eastern part of our county. He died last Thursday night of pneumonia. He was 21 years old.

Cards are out announcing the marriage of Rev. ,J C Troy, of Jonesboo, editor ofTrojan's Notion, to Miss Lula Virginia Earnhardt, of that place. The marriage occurred at the parson age there on Sunday evening, the 16th. The Meeting of tho Farmers Mutual Fire Insurance Association. According to the call of their president, Mr. Zeb Morris, the Farmers' Mutual Fire Insurance Association met last Saturday in the court house. Nothing of special interest was done more than the appointing of delegates. Mr. J L Stafford was elected as the delegate to the meeting of the State Associa tion in Raleigh on the 22nd, inst.' A committee, consisting of Messrs. J L Staf ford, S S McWhirter, and Zeb A Morris, was appointed to con-' fer with a like committee of Mecklenburg's association as to what course to pursue in the future as to the State organiza tion. The association will, meet here again on the first Saturday in-April. Concord Meets Defeat at Mt. FJeasanU As was stated last Saturday some of our smaller boys -went to'Mt. Pleasant to play the col lege boys. Our team was from the Concord High School. But our boys met defeat in a score of 10 to 5. This is. the first game of tho season and our should not become disheartened but remember the saying "a b'ad beginumg makes a good ending." The two nines will cross bats here next . Saturday. George Montgomery and Will Fetzer composed our battery. Uur Mt. Fleasant corrospon-J dent gives us the following of the game: A goodly number of spectators werepresent although the ladies were few. A good delegation of "rooters" from Concord were present and did their work well and in qne or two instances, it wasl exceptional y 'good. We have not witnessed so close a game on our grounds in a num ber of years. It was what we would call an exceptionally good game considering the fact that it !was played by. second teams. The1 1J ba'ttejries, . Montgom ery .and fetzer of the Concord High. School and H W Barrier and' 'wF Moser of "North Caro lina College, did nice work. Not a single player -Was given first ;base on balls, or by. being hit by balls. Every first base was made 'either by strikes or batted balls.' Basemen and fielders, on both sides. did their . . . . . .... ... ... work with credit witn tne ex-. ception of a few muffs and wild throws. We are proud of the fact 'that North Carolina college team made less bad plays, thereby winning tho game in.acore of 10 to 5. Tho home "rooters" deserve credit for their wit 'and unnn the whole it wasonet)f the I . eaceable gam-e ; we m have itnegsed lie Continues to Buildt Mr. 'BiUy" Wilkinson, con tinues to build houses on his property about m town.

Probably Concord can say more than a number of towns can say, and that is that Admiral Dewey has stopped in Concord and spent a short while. His special train, consisting of two cars only, was here at the sta tion today (Monday). On ac count of a delayed train from the South he was kept here about ten minutes. He did not stiow himself as no demonstra-' Dr. D D Johnson and little TTTQO , , . daughter went to Hickory this turn was made by our people.. mor6ninff to s d a few d Mrs. Dewey was to be seen in i the observation car busied with' Miss- Irene .

'The funeral of Mr. Joel Reed was held Sunday, afternoon at the home by Rev. Cochran Pres- ton. A large number of friends accompanied the remains to their 1 last resting place after the fun- eral. Dr. John Reed arrived boys.here from' New Vork Sunday, med, morning. The other members of , i the family, Me. E J Buchanan, t jT)!mA Joel arrived from Mebane and the University Saturday night. The remains' were interred in the city cemetery. v The llojrses Attached at Jast. It was rather amusing the way Sheriff Peck, of our county, and Sheriff Monroe, of Rowan coun ty, have been visiting Gold Hill. Sheriff Monroe was the first to .serve attachment papers. This time ho did not get, but two of the teams. Sheriff -Peck went Qver to the mine the next day but when he was there all of the horses were on the Rowan side so Me could not include them in his papers. But in the evening Sheriff Monroe camp back and put them on his list. Rightly the horses are kept in the stables in this county but they were on the Rowan side when foind. .
