Established 1899 if| SESSION OF p CONGRESS MONDAY htn Session Mereed Into Regular Session at Noun-Many New Sub jects. Washington, Nov. 30 -The tn ij Jit usually surrounding the ninir of a new session of Con ! absent from the While th* first session of the Sixty-third Congress will end at noon, and the second session will be usher -1 Tin bv formal proclamation of S* Vice president and the speak er of the House, the status of legislation will b« little diffwmnt ro m what it was when Senate and House adjourned Saturday afternoon ... President Wiison will appear before the two Houses at 1 o'clock T,,e S dav, to read his annual mes ; B? eat a j »int session in the: House chamber. Aside from this formality, inaugurated by Presi dent Wilson last April at the art of the special session, and ine presentation in the House to morrow of the annual estimates for Federal expenditures, the first days of the new session will be carctl\ distinguishable from the closing days of the old. For the first time in many years, C ingress will etep oyer from one . gfgsion to another, without a break in the routine of business. The Senate will meet at 10 o'clock tomorrow and there will be an intermission of only a few min utes at noon before the regular session begins. The significance of the new session lie* in the fact that it opens the Hood gates for legisla ture activity, and inaugurates a period that promises to be crowd ed with the consideration of im portant projects, and prolific in legislative enactment. The extra session just ending was limited, by informal agret . ments with President Wilson to of tariff and cur rency reform, and nothing that might interfere with those issues was talren up. The currency bill still dominates the situation as the new session begins; but the administration program of i anti-trust and railroad legislation which is to follow, must share the field with a score of other im portant subjects. It is the hope of Democratic leaders t hat the currency bill can be disposed of in the Senate by the- end of De cember, and can be completed by both Houses of Confess and signed by the President in Janu ary. In anticipation of this, the plans for anti-trust legislation will be taken up this week by President Wilson in conference with Representative Clayton, Senator New lands, and other members of the Judiciary and Interstate Commerce Committees of the two Houses.

About forty people took part in j the. spelling bee at Killian's ; school house last Friday sight. Everyone enjoyed it; and the orincipal, especially. It was hard ; to get him stopped—he wanted to spell all night. There wa9 some good spelling done. But the best came afterward —the sale of the boxes. Thev were very pretty and tastely de corated, and no one waa disap pointed when the box was open ed, either. They brought $12.30 tor the school and everyone en joyed the refreshments. « A little Xmas secret crept out I among the crowd from some where. perhaps from one of the boxes. It said "Santa Claus is certain ly going to visit the school on Friday, December 19 at 8 p. m. Grouchy and Chad's Xmas party will also be present and will give us a very interesting play, j Ad mission, children 10 cents; Adults j 20c t. u . X Proceeds will go for the school house furnishings, ( Smoking. Does smoking make people utterly reckless about the safety of propertv and life in respect to ! fire, or doss the smoking habit appeal especially to heedless per sons? We cannot assume to say, but the typical smoker scratches his match and drops it anywhere and anyhow, without so mujcjh as troubling to extinguish it first; he is done with the match* and that suffices him. Sometimes it falls in his wastebasket, and sets that off; sometimes on the cover ings of his bed, and gives him a little excitement; sometimes ha tosses it out of the window, and it starts off an awning below; sometimes he drops it on a woman and burns her out df ex istence, as befell one hapless votary of the habit of seeing out the old year by eating and drink ing food which one does not need, in a fashionable restaurant; sometimes it starts off an- Asche building or a Binghamtotf e2oth» ing shop. The careless Smoker keeps his habit of match-drop ping with him t as exemplified by the case of a chap in Montreal who wanted a pair of scissors iu a store in the dark. He scratch ed his match, caught sight df the scissors, tossed the match, and it dropped in an open can of gasoline, much to the subsequent interest of an insurance company whose agent had sent to the owner of the store an unsolici ted policy for approval—lnsur ance. Shot up The Road Working Camp,. Lincoln County News, 28th.' t A shooting scrape of some note was engaged in at the eamp of the road working squad of the Wright Contracting Company last Friday night. It is said that seyen shots were fired. One pegro received serious wounds, being shot in the arm and abdomen. He was; brought to Lincolnton for an op eration to extract the bullets. One other negro was very bad-, ly frightened by the shooting? and sought shelter from the bul lets by using three mules of the Wright Contracting Company, for a breast works. One very* fine mule was killed and two re* ceived wounds from which it is thought they will recover. Warrants have been issued for two white men who are charged with doing the shooting. W. 31 Aikin and George Kistler are the men wanted, and thus far they i have made good their escape. . Cortright Metal Shingle Roofing.
