A Successful Fair.
Salisbury Post
The Concord fair he’d the pant
Week was a pronounced success from
©very angle. Salisbury people who at
tended speak in praise of the whole
exhibitions and many Rowan people
were in attendajoce. The Tribune says
that a check-up of record show that
forty thousand people attended
fthumday. The splendid interest
shown in this event folly justifies- tne
•ffort to hold Birch an exhibit and tne

serves much praise for the undertak
ing. Truly the Concord fair is a won
derful success and with them we re
joice.
When Is a Pearl a Pearl?
What constitutes a natural pearl?
The French courts recently decided
♦Mg question. A test case was brought
before the courts to determine whether
“cultivated” pearls may be legally sold
Under the label “real” or “natural”
pearls. Such pearls are grown on oys
ters, and therefore, according to the
worts, are not false. But inasmuch
as they are atimulated by artificial
means, they are not natural. In the
future French dealers must sell pearls
so produced under a label designating
them as “cultivated” or an equivalent
name.

STRAY PIT LEADS TO
$2,500 DAMAGE SUIT
Attack by Circus Men on Boy Found
With Canine Causes Action Against
Show.
Rockingham, Oct. 13. —As a result
of their appearance in Rockingham
last Monday, the Walter E. Main cir
cus has a $2,500 suit for damages on
their hands.
And it all started over the theft or
straying of a very small puppy —said
to be the collie pup that one of the
clowns uses In an act between two
supposedly pieces of bread.
About 10 o’clock Monday morning
young Dewey Meacham says he found
the puppy in a ditch off the circus
grounds, one mile south of Rocking
ham. The circus folks alleged he
had taken the pup. 'However, the in
cident was apparently satisfactorily
adjusted, and the boy, his father, Tom
Meacham secured lawyers and insti
parted to the Oockman store, some
200 yards from the grounds, when a
score of circus employes are said to
have followed them and a fight took
place, with the elder Meacham knocked
unconscious by the butt of a pistol
in the hands of a circus foreman. A.
W. Williams and Dewey Meacham
were bruised, while a circus man
brandished a weapon and invited
bystanders to “come in.”
Officers later in the day made a
search of the circus to locate some of
the participants, and Sheriff Braswell
went to Monroe Tuesday night and
searched the outfit again, but to no
avaiL
In the meantime, Monday, Mr.
Meacham secured lawyersand insti
tuted civil proceedings against the
circus for $2,500 damages, and had
the outfit attached. The circus folks
quickly posted an American Security
company bond for $5,000, had the at
tachment dissolved and proceeded with
the parade and afternoon and night
performances.

King Alphonse Ha© Collection of
Bombs Aimed at His Life.
(By International News Service.)
Madrid, Oct- 17. —King Alphonse
XIII, of Spain, has one of the mu>i
unusual collections in the world.
It might be termed a “collection
of attempts,” for it contains all
documents and articles used on dif
forent attempts upon the life of the
monarch. Each piece is carefully
! abelled with indications of the date,
place and a resume of the circum
stances and events which took place.
The remains of bombs are the most
numerous, but there are also dag
gers and deadly weapons of all kinds
and shapes.
A ha'f-filled bottle containing
poison which was poured into the
milk of the baby-king, figures among
the collection.
The king likes very much to show
a unique fire-arm made after the
drawing which were found in Paris
during one of his visits to the capital.
The anarchists intended to profit by
this little journey to make rid of
Alphonso. but the plan* were dis
covered by the police, as well as the
details for a special gun. When the
king heard of it, he immediately or
dered one like the plans.
_But the principal piece in the en
tire collection i« the ske’eton of the
unfortunate horse killed by a bomb
on the wedding-day of Alphonso and
Princess Ena. He was one of the four
drawing the wedding-coach.

THE CONCORD TIMES
KEECH BREAKS OLD
STATE RECORD FOR
TIME IN HALF MILE
Veteran Philadelphia Driver
Pilots Special-Built Miller
Around the Track in 29.4
Seconds.
By RADIO KINO.
' His mount a special straight-eight
: Miller, Ray Keech, of Philadelphia,
daring veteran of the terra firma
i speedways, established a new state
record for the half-mile track when
in a great burst of speed his motor
circled the oval in 29.4 seconds at the
Cabarrus District Fair Saturday after
noon. The old state record for the
half-mile spurt is 30 seconds flat.
The youthful and death-defying
Keech also piloted his Miller, a bright
, green racer wearing the number 7, to
first place in the initial three-mile
event, zipping and skidding around the
speedway for six laps in 3:30.2. In
i the second elimination heat Keech
rolled down the home stretch for an
other first place. His time for the
six laps was 3:18.4. In the free-for
all sweepstakes Keech drove home
> second, following close to Bob Robin
son’s Dusenburg which captured first
place and a purse of S2OO.
Colorful Crowd.
A great crowd of people, probably
more than 15,000, gathered to see the
first automobile races in the history
’ of the Cabarrus fair. The grandstands
and bleachers were burdened with a
mass of humanity while the infield
was partially filled with several hun
dred. Along the outside curves of the
track a great line of people pressed.
The races were delayed in starting for
nearly 45 minutes while the people
on the south curves were pleaded to
stand back for the safety of their
lives. Ralph A. Hankinson, the
starter, warned the drivers to exercise
the greatest precaution on the track
because of the lack of proper safety
guards.
The races were sanctioned by the
American Automobile Association. J.
A. Daly, of Charlotte, was the official
A. A. A. representative in charge.
W. R. Jessee, mayor of Salerno, Fla.,
1 acted as one of the referees. C. A.
Reppert, of Kenton, Ohio, veteran
starter of horse races, and W. E.
Foster, of Roceverte, W. Va., were the
timekeepers.
The racers roaring around the oval
iin breath-taking style, frequently one
skidding and leaving behind great
( clouds of reddish dust, held the spec
tators in a constant state of excite
ment and thrills. In the last race
for consolation the spectators groaned
their excitement when Doug Wallace’s
Hispo careened from the road at the
' north end of the track, struck the
1 fence and then did a mean, dizzy whirl
1 back into the track. Finally Wallace
gained control of his car and sped
away down the straight-away. The
Hispo’s capers provided the big thrill
of the racing extravaganza.
Thrilling Finish.
Speeding around the track at CO to
SO miles per hour, the six motors in
the free-for-all sweepstakes provided
the most daring race. The half dozen
drivers kept their machines en masse
through the fifth lap, then the race
was on with Keech, Robinson and Wa'.-
lace alternately leading away. When
the ninth lap was run Robinson forged
his Dusenburg into the front and held
his own only by a few inches. As the
racers move down the home stretch
Keech gave his Miller the gas, and it
lacked only a few inches tying the
Dusenburg.
Keech became the friend of the spec
tators dn the first race, and thereafter
he was loudly cheered. Wallace got
a big hand for his performance in the
five-mile sweepstakes, Keech not only
lowered the state record for the half
mile with his green racer but also
roared around the track for the be»i
record on the three-mile event. His
time was 3:18.2.
The crowd grew somewhat restless
before the races began, but the monot
ony was forgotten when the drivers
rolled their mounts to the starting
point and cranked the motors for the
first event. Arising to their feet the
spectators yelled lustily when Mr.
Ilankinson waved the red flag “to
start.” Keech’s Miller was followed
closely by the crowd in the three-mile
spurt, and it won, wresting first place
from Wallace’s Hispo on the fifth
lap. The order rn which the racers
came in were: First. Keech, of
Philadelphia, driving a Miller; second.
Doug Wallace, of Indianapolis, pilot
ting a Hispo; third. Jim Patterson,
of Kansas City, driving a Frontenac ;
fourth, Roy Monroe, of Middletown.
N. Y., at the wheel of a Dodge Special ;
fifth, Phil Testa, of Newark, N. J.,
driving a Fiatia.
The purse in this event was divided
as follows: Keech. $75; Wallace, SSO.
and Patterson, $25.
Shatters Record.
In the time trials for a distance of
one lap Ray Keech set a new record
by driving his Miller around the oval
in 29.4 seconds. Wallace and Robin
son missed tying the state record by
two-fifths second, measuring the half
mile in their steeds in 30.4 seconds.
Patterson drove his Frontenac around
the track in 31.4 seconds. Keech won
a purse of $25 in this event.
Jim Patterson’s Frontenac and
Doug Wallace’s Hispo were winners
in the first elimination heat. The
Hispo rolled home first with the
Frontenac second. Testa and Monroe
came in third and fourth respectively
and entered the second elimination
heat in effort to qualify for the sweep
stakes. Both, however, had to drop
out early in the event. Keech came
in first with Itobinson second in the
second elimination race. A purse of
SSO was divided among the cars com
ing in first and second in both heats.
Jim Patterson, Doug Wallace and
Roy Monroe entered their racers in
the consolation race. But Monroe
was unable to finish. After leading
the way for the first two laps he had
to drop out, and it was a struggle
between Patterson and Wallace. The
latter's Hispo, however, did a spin
at the nprth end of the oval, and al
lowed Patterson to drive his Fron
tenac home for first money. The purse
was: Patterson, S6O; Wallace, $25;
and Monroe, sls.
Ray Keech and Bob Robinson were
the big purse winners. Keech won
$215 while Robinson won $2lO by
his racing. Keech won more events
but Robinson rolled home first in the
five-mile sweepstakes to take first
money, S2OO. Keech gave some thrill
ing exhibitions Saturday, and it is no
wonder that he captured the 100-mile
I>onghorn race at Philadelphia last
August. He is daring. He raced his
Miller around the bends at terrific
rates of speed. When he set up a
new state records his speed varied be
tween 65 and SO miles an hour.
The Cabarrus District Fair may
now boast of the fastest race track
TERRIFIC BEATING
TO PROGNOSTICATOR
OF GRIP CONTESTS
Picked Seven Out of Eleven
Games Played Saturday
But Four Lost Did Look
So Easy.
By W. M. SHERRILL.
The Tribune's prognosticator on
grid games picked seven out of eleven
Saturday and those four lost did seem
so easy prior to game time.
We lost when we cast our lots with
North Carolina, Alabama, V. P. 1.,
and V. M. 1., and won with Duke,
Davidson, Georgia, Notre Dame,
Princeton, Yale and Tennessee.
The Tar Heels again Saturday were
not impressive. The Gamecocks of
South Carolina are getting better as
the season advances but they haven’t
a championship team by any means,
and their victory over the Tar Heels
doesn’t do the North Carolina team
any good.
Georgia Tech, with a better team
than last year, and Alabama, with a
weaker team, entertained about 45,000
at Atlanta Saturday. Tech won 13
to 0 and surprised us.
We could hardly believe the radio
man when he told us that Virginia
had defeated V. M. 1., and we were
almost as dumbfounded when V. P. I.
lost to Maryland. We thought the
team that could hold Georgia Tech
close could beat Virginia and the
eleven that could defeat the powerful
Colgate would defeat Maryland, loser
to Carolina. We just accept them as
upsets and go ahead.
Georgia’s overwhelming vietpry over
Furman left us groggy. We picked
the Bulldogs but thought a touchdown
or two would be the margin of victory.
Never did we think that Georgia could
win 32 to 0.
Notre Dame and Yale looked good
in defeating the Navy and Brown, re
spectively, and Princeton kept her
slate clean by defeating Washington
and Lee 18 to 0. Tennessee won an
other conference game by defeating
Mississippi. .
Dick Grey and a score of other
Wildcats from Davidson slashed
around the Elon team for a 27 to 0
victory. Grey was the bright light
of the game but had fine aid from
Harrison, Flynn and other Presby
terians. Coach Younger used nearly
every man on the squad before the
game was over.
Down at Durham the Blue Devils
from Duke had a field day with Rich
mond. gaining' a 72 to 0 victory. It’s
been many a day since a North Caro
lina team ran up any such score. It
should be remembered that Cornell
defeated the same team 59 to 0, so
the Duke victory could be accepted
maybe, as showing the relative stand
ing of Cornell.
The Davidson-Elon game indicates
that the Wildcats will win from Wake
Forest next Saturday in Greensboro.
The best Wake Forest could do
against Elon was to break even in a
scoreless game. Does the game Satur
day indicate that Davidson is four
touchdowns better than Wake Forest?
