Concord, N, C, Sept. 6, 1910 Ex-Governor Aycock 's Prayer An swered. About four years ago when Mr. Bryan was in Europe and it was confidently expected that upon his re turn he would have a triumph po litically (all of which ended with his government ownership speech) the Hon. Maryann Butler was heard to say: "Weil, 1 have always been a Bryan man." This exclamation reached North Carolina and produced consternation in many quarters for fear it meant the ex-senator was going to try to leap on the democratic band wagon if he saw Bryan was going to win. Ex Governor Aycock said : "Boys, lets's pray that he may join the republi cans." "For the same reason the old dark ey deacon down in Warren county prayed for the Lord to send Deacon Jones to hell," replied Mr. Aycock. "Down in Warren at a darkey meet ing one night an old deacon prayed with great fervor. 'Now, dear Lord, please send Brother Bill Jones to hell. ' After the meeting the brethren repri manded him for sach seeming sacril ege, when he said: "Now, wait till I make a splanation. Yer know Bill Jones just jined de Mefodists at Pisgy church an' he hadn't been a member six months 'fo he had de bigges' row an' Pisgy chureh broke aR ter pieees. Den he went an' jined de Preste'ians at Ebenezer an' he got a idea dat dey had 'lections ebry day, 'cause dat wuz what dey said dey believed in, bat dey wouldn't gib him de money he wuz nseter gittin' at 'lections, so he raised a row an' eot de brudders at Ebenezer all 6plit up ober de doc- trine, an' now Ebenezer 19 closed. Den he went ter town an' jined dem Piscopaliana and didn't stay dar a month bafo' he "wanted ter hab some thin' ter do in de church so he could "war a white robe an' he an' fle.rictor rictor had a fight an' de ricter lef an' de church went down. Now Bill he done come an' jined us, an' I . prayed de Lord dat He would send him to hell.1 Now you axjne whyf" v Catawba College Opens September 7.

There is every indication that the . college shall have a large increase in the enrollment as compared with last year and all the buildings, are being put in readiness for the accom modation of students. The sanitary -conditions have been improved, new furniture purchased for several of the class rooms, wardrobes installed in dormitory rooms and about $1500 expended for a thorough equipment ifor the Physical, Chemical and Bio ioeical laboratories thua eivinff as one - vf the best equipments in the State for .the work in Science. . Thorough courses, a strong faculty , 'and an up-to-date, equipment insure : t 'the best educational opportunities ,: .and all who seek a liberal education " will do well to take advantage of 4hem.-' The registration days are Sep v tember 6th and 7th, ' Christ Portrait Hot True, "The portraits "of Christ are not true to life," said Prof.. Henry B. (Wright, of Yale University, in an ad dress before 50 Chinese students at 1 Evanston, ID., Tuesday,:;?: :i:'H':Jv; "It is not strange that they should not be,'! continued ; the Professor, "for no man who ever painted a por trait of Christ ever nr him." r r . " 1 From all descriptions of Christ id the Bible we are led to believe that be was a strong, muscular man, even ' bronzed and ruddy and anything bat effeminate, as many portraits show Lim to be. "This is as he should be. Chrirt was the onlv man who ever lived who was t '1 powerful.'

W. .Kaage, ai Alaska miner, re cently referred a check (or f 13 doe aim whea be resigned a postmaster ahlp at MUt TUlate, Flu, In the faU of 1867. Although the government has had tho se of thla $12 for forty two years. Bang la allowed no lnter eat At 8 per cent, an average legal rate of Interest la, tbe United States, the principal and eonpound Interest would amount to $138.68. In other words,' Uncle 8am made $120.08 on tho $13 that belonged to Bangs. Bang waa compelled to pay aa at torney in Washington one-third of the amount he received after wait ing more than forty-two years for col lecting It When the check was re ceived Bang sent $4 to the estate at torney In the national capital for hi services. "( served three years in the war," said Range, "and when I returned home my friends at Mill Tillage want- i ed to do something for me, so they had me appointed postmaster. I re algned In less than a year and went west "About five years ago I received a letter from an attorney In Washing ton, advising me that I had a good and Just claim against the govern ment for $12 and that he would collect It for one-third of the amount 1 as his commission. I did not know the government owed me anything, but I told him If I bad anything coming to me he might go after It I think the claim was for overpayment of postage stamps. I got the check, signed by Secretary MacTeagh, and had to send the attorney $4 for collecting the claim." CHASE'S DESK STILL IN USE. Treasury Clerks Eager to Own His- torlo Furniture. In the office of the auditor for the postoffiee department bureau of the treasury department at Washington there is a mahogany desk of historical Interest It is flat topped, plain and not a Uttle marked and worn from con stant nse for over fifty years. It was at this desk that Salmon P. Chase as secretary of the treasury worked out his contribution to the financial sys tem of tho United States. This desk was taken from the treas ury building Just after the civil war to the building at the corner of Eighth and B streets, where the sixth audi tor's office (called in those days the colony) was housed for some years previous to its removal to the Busch building. It has taken the round with that branch of the treasury and is now In the custody of that bureau in the postoffiee building. Tradition has It that many clerks from time to time have asked the hon or of sitting at the desk. In a recent purchase of more modem desks for the auditor's office, which made neces sary the removal of all the old high desks, the Chase desk, which conforms in shape to the modern office desks, was Just moved In line with others, - thus escaping the ordinary fate of the annual junk sale of the treasury de partment The fine material of which the Chase desk is made and the band finish mark it as a conspicuous piece of furniture even if it is not modern in Its construc tion. AIR WILL RING UP FARES. Hudson River Tunnel Hss New Tsb Keeping 8oheme Aviators are not the only persons who can take a fall out of the air. W. G. McAdoo of Hudson tunnel fame is going them one better?:' He 1a making the air work tor him. . A young inventor gave him tho idea, and be to following it up by having avcompressed air device which registers tbe number of passengers using the "tubes' in stalled la the Hoboken terminal. In the .contrivance which Mr. Mc Adoo is using a constant flow of com pressed air is directed toward a disk equipped with an electric registering apparatus. A person passing through the current of air interrupts tbe pres sure against the disk, end tnto "rings up" the fare. ' - The device promisee to prove practi cal.

The famous Jarboe collection of rare volumes of the French revolution baa been acquired by Stanford uni versity. This extremely valuable ad dition to the library takes its name from the .man who originally brought the books together, John B, Jarboe, a prominent lawyer of Ban Francisco, many years ago. . ':.... ; v; f The value of the library does not 41 In its sUe, but in the character of its contents. The collection contains ap proximately 2,500 pieces. . These are from almost entirely original source and materials, most of them being ex tremely rare. ' The collection of ton temporary pamphlets alone comprises 100 titles, and memoirs are present In surprising numbers. - Many Villages In Japan. : Japan ; Las . sixty-six cities, 1,237 towns and 13.&7 vlllas.

Ke w .Tors, . has enb elded. - For a time It appeared aa If each member of every American' patriotic and historical society in New York. New-Jersey and Connecticut at mast would become embroiled. ' . Net Complimentary Otttrse. Tho sudden calm over the matter was caused by tho discovery that the compliment to the memory of -King George, if paid, will be of the. left handed variety. The purpose, it ,1s said, will bo attested by an Inscription, occupying a prominent place on the pedestal, which will read somewhat M follows: . :" a Tats replies, ef the statue of tbe errant Kmt Oeorse HI. tm erected In memory f tbe AsMrioea patriots whe destroyed tne original sad molded It tnto bullets that were need In battling for i merle Ub- ; The restored statue would stand as a powerful lesson la patriotism to Amer ican youth, it is declared. The original leaden statue, it will be remembered, was pulled from its ped estal by patriotic New Yorkers at the beginning of tho Bevolutlon and mold ed tnto bullets for the Continental ar my. Parts of the original statue which were cast of metal not suitable for bullets are in tha possession , of va rious societies. ' ,v -:" Cushing Stetson, grandson of .gov ernor of Massachusetts, is tbe leader in the plan to collect aa many of the fragments of the original statue ss may be in existence and use them in the replica. " Feared Clash ef Nations. , The New York Daughters ot' the Bevolutlon were among tho opponents of the plan as it was originally under stood, and one member forecast possi bilities as follows: "Serious objection to setting tp an effigy of King George III. on Bowling Green may bo found on the ground that it might give rise to unpleasant incidents. It would be unfortunate if on a Memorial day parade of the St George's society on its way to hang a wreath around the neck of .the Brit ish monarch clashed with tho 80ns of the Bevolutlon marching to festoon the memorial to tbe prison martyrs in Trinity churchyard. "Cyrus Field several years ago made the experiment of erecting a monu ment to the ill fated Major Andre near Tarry tow n, but it was not long in po sition before it was dynamited,'. About ten years ago a Chicago newspaper, woman suggested that it would be graceful act if the American visitors to Quebec commemorated their annua)! invasion of that historic city by put ting up a statue ot General Richard Montgomery, who was killed leading an assault on the city on Dec. 81, 1776. "The Quebecers, stated frankly that if such a monument were erected it would not long be in position. . A com promise was effected .by the . Quebec Historical society , Itself setting up a plain tablet. to nark, .the , site of the battle. , Like discretion will ..prevent the execution of this, latest vagary of he historians."

The loss of her husband, the falling away of the social-' interest that formerly centered about her and the loss of prestige have hurt; her greatly.
