-** m Saturday, January 31, 1925 ' : 1 _ Mr. and Meg. Archie CauoonEtitertaJn Miss Frieda Heiqpel, who gave her owh ami the Jenny Lind concert in combina tion at the high school auditorium Fri day night, was wonderful and the pro gram was acclaimed as the loveliest ever heard in Concord. The combination of concerts, according to Miss Hempel, has been given, only twice in America, in New Ttorfc and Concord. She lsjust back from an English tour and the Lqpdijn papers were enthusiastic iu their praise of it. 4 Concord fell hard- for the beautiful Diva—her audience was entranced by her grac’.ousnesq, and charm , and her golden voice was applauded y. the echo. She saitl she had rarely sung to, a jndpe appre ciative audience and could feel its sym pathy like waves, coming up to heir. ' A number of delightful dinner parties, for out of town guests, were given before the concert and Mr. and Mrs. Archje Cannon invited about fifty people to meet Miss Hepipel immediately afterwards. Mfb. Cannon's charming hospitality is well known, to her friends and she was at her best Friday night. Gowned in peaefi she seemed to enjoy the unusual privilege of entertaining a great singer, whff, Wijm Mr. Bos, an accompanist of unusual' ability, and Mr. Fritzo, the flutist, whose notes were as sweet as a bird's, had just given a large audience so much pleasure. The Cannon home, gay with flowers and candles and prettily dressed women, gave a warm wel come to the three artists, and they were ns much pleased with their private recep tion as they lutd been with their public one. They expressed themselves as anx ious to come to goncord again and when they do. it w ! U take 'even’ a bigger place than our new auditorium td'Jiold the crowd that will be there to gfefef them. .

The supper was cooked by Mr. Snider and his guests after the arrival of those invited. A sumptuous supper with chicken and accessories was served, whicli was very much enjoyer. An mousing part of the evening was the fact that one of the guests pulled a joke ou arrival, having slipped ou the ice and his moans and groans caused much excitement, but after some '‘doctoring’’ his arm was re stored to its natural position, and the arm of this guest was kept busy at the tabh- trying to keep pace with his appe tite. Among those present from Concord were "Toots" Oorl, "Tobe” Boyd, "Lone” Arehey and Walter Lee Smith.

Thomas Tdfc Jury-Urges the Christian Plmu , . Herrin, HI; Jan. 29.—Pleading for ai peaceful settlement of the Klan and anti-' Klan strife in Williamson county, Mrs.: Ora Thomas, widow of the deputy sheriff; slain with S. Glenn Young and two oth- : era Saturday night, told the coroner’s jury today that guns had been tried and; | failed. Mrs. Thomas, dressed in deep ] mourning, after telling her story, without j emotion, closed by- declaring: “t want to say that we will have to ' have non-factional men on our juries and grand juries if we are' to settle this.: We can’t settle this with guns. It has! , been tried ' and failed. I think that’ Christians are the only persons who can make this county what it used to be. “I want to sgy that as far as the ; Klan . is concerned many business men who .formerly were opposed to Ora on account of this thing came to him the; week before the .shooting and buried" the : hatchet.” ... . The widow told how she had gone to the Herrin City Hospital with a sister and Mrs. Fielding, a neighbor, when told that her husband had been wounded. At, the hospital, she said, they found two armed men. . One, she declared, at tempted to strike Dr. J, T. Black, owner of the hospital and a known anti-Klans raan, -over the head with his gun, when Mrs. Fielding intervened. Eulogising: the- work in Williamson county of Glenn Young, the Rev. I. •E. Lee, pastor' of the First;' Baptist Church here, today declared at the fun- . eral of the slain liquor raider, that he : was “more responsible than any other for cleaning out the dives and joints of , this county, and every foe that he had ’ knew it well.” C “Conditions in Williamson county i were almost beyond description two years j ago," he said., “More than thirty pub- , lie saloons were active on the main street i Herrin. of smaller . joints ] wpre open in ajl parts of the city, open i gambling! houses were numerous and 1 there were many road houses throughout j ithe county. ' , “Conditions were steadily growing ' worse, the dives were multiplying and ] there was a large element in the county i thaj included the rankest sofflaws, boot- 1 leggers, gamblers and prostitutes. "Today the saloons are closed. i “The public saloon has become a thing 1 of the past in Herrin only in the last ] fifteen months. The same may be said i of the public gambling houses. All of 1 the county’s notorious road houses have i( been closed. j “Where have our law violators gone? ■ Some have left the county. Many are ' still with us. Many have reformed, and 1 I believe they will make good citizens. j “Who brought this reform? “If YVilliamson county had not had 1 some of the best of the nation's citizen- i] ship she would have decayed beyond re demption. And while many have had a part in this work there is one name that comes to every mind, first when tliey think of the Williamson county clean up: “S. Glentv^Y'oung. "A man who did his work thoroughly , and made the supreme sacrifice in doing it. He lias done more than any other i one man to make law and order para- 1 mount ip Willinmson county.- , “YVe are hoping and praying for peace i -—the peace founded upon law and justice ] to all. Perhaps the day of that peace , is at hand. If not, may God speed the 2 day!” S Two Ku Klux Klnnsmen will stand | guard at the tomb of Young for a year i and perhaps longer, according to a state- S meat by a prominent Klan leader.

" New York, Jan. 30.—Bradstroet's to- , morrow will say: , “Trade is fully fair and industry is better than that, classing as fair to j good, but there are numerous irregulari ties in different cities, areas and indus trieep, indicating cross currents in buy- | ing demand or in supply. Retail trade \ has seemed to slow down in most see- i tions, this partly reflecting unfavorable , stormy weather, and partly the passing \ of the after-holiday sales stimulation, , As this has Keen a fairly normal win- 1 ter, with all that this implies in the way qf snow and cold, however, a very fair volume of final distribution has been re corded. In wholesale and jobbing trade for spring, the progress has been leisur ly, in some sections indeed disappoint ing when contrasted with the .relatively higher speed of industry, which has scored a very marked degree of recovery . from the depression of mid-year of 1924.” !

Raleigh, Jdn. 30—The Senate commit tee on penal mstitutioiUbAhis afternoon unanimously reported favorably on a bill to eliminate high payments to prisoners on discharge from state institutions and to substitute S3O and a suit of clothes to eacli discharged prisoner. The bill will be reported to the ityor of the house to morrow and placed on the. calendar, as a result of the hearing this afternoon. Senator W. C. Heath, of Monroe, is chair man. “We liuve Deep expending too much each year in this way,” Senator Heath stated after tlie meeting, “$65,000 in the list four years, and we felt that, some thing ought to be dene to relieve tho State of paying this large amount to prison ers.” / “The bad part about it is the fact that the annual sum is increasing rapidly and February this year will show an expendi ture in this way of about $14,000 or 'more,” the senator stated. He explained that a prisoner who was given an “A” !

The bill would cut out tlie 15 cents, 10 cents and 5 cents ' per diem pay to prisoners and would sub stitute the lump sum of S3O and a suit of clothes. Tlie story is told of a prisoner from a western county, who, on discharge, was presented with a check for over a hundred dollars, “My God, Mr, I*ou, what is this for?” the discharged prisoner is stated ■ to have exclaimed. The members of the 1 committee believed that many prisoners ; din’t even know' of the regulations as i to pay while it was believed that much ' of the money paid out to negro prisoners j was utterly wasted similar to the throw- >j ing away of much of the cash bonuses | awarded by the government during the j World War. "It is similar to the glut ! in the available supply for labor when the harvesting of a particular crop has thrown much money into the hands of 1 . farm hands,” Senator Heath remarked, i Agricultural authorities in Australia l ■ estimate that rabbits cause an annual * loss in productivity of over $100,000,- 000.
