The Der capita sub scription in this county was $45.26, rvo total subscription allotted, follow in- rhe cut that was made being over- sul-scribed, and Liberty Loan officials ,o nnintine out that a lot of hustlin i? coing to be necessary if a record eoniparableto that established during the second campaign is hung up in the marketing of the third issu3 o The demand upon the county during Ihe second campaign, following the our that was made, was $1,582,250, and the amount actually , subscribed ir?.s $1,739,750, which, however, was mailer than the initial allotment was considerably in eicess of the tota eti'i-criotion allotment after the au thorized cut had been made. The leco-cl estaDiisnea in tne .saie oi sec ond issue bonds is one. that' the coua ty cm feel justly proud of, but does not permit any laurel -resting acts during the run of the third campaign. Local officials are very much con cerned over the manner in which the third issue campaign is slowing up. Subscriptions continue to filter iu from the county; but the bonds are nnt heme marketed in a manner that ineets the approval if officials who realize just what is necessary if the pmmtv is to "zo over the top." Officials are inclined to think that j much could be accomplished if more corporations would followthe course taken by the S. H. Kress store in buying bonds. This company, which operates a chain of 'stores through: out the country, are buying bonds and local committeemen are inclined to think that outside companies doing business here will follow suit. The local central committee ha3 al so been advised that shipments of the honor flags have been delayed, but that they will be delivered just as early as possible.

Says The Ledger: Immediate construction rf ?i nsw yard at Wilmington, N. C, for the Duiiamg of concrete ships was order ed today by the shipping board. The site has been selected. The Wil- j mington plant is to be used as a mod-! el tor concrete yards' m other sec tions of the country, if Congress ap propriates tne $oo,uuu,uuo asKea Dy Chairman Edward N. Hurley for con crete construction. "Work on the Wilmington yard is to be pushed bv the shivoiner board without waiting ior the appropriation. There Is said to be slight doubt that Congress will make the money avail able, as Senator Fletcher, of Florida, chairman of the Commerce Comittee and Senator Simmons, of North Car olina, chairman of the Finance Com mittee, today assured Chairman Hur ley the appropriation probably would be made without delay. "Chairman Hurley, in- presenting the estimate of $50,000,000' for con crete-shin construction to Congress, took the position that he .does not feel justified in -using the appropria tion for. steel and wooden snips, as the concrete ship stil is in an ex perimental stage. "The shipping board is quite win ing to go ahead with the construction of concrete ships if Congress appro priates the money. If Congress does nnt nrmrooriate the expenditure, then the responsibility for failure to con struct such ships will not peiong . to the shipping board. "James C.

All doubt as to the identity of the American steamer, destroyed by fire off the Nova EjScotia coast the latter part; of the "past week, has been re moved, and yesterday's statement of the fact that the . steamer was the City of Wilmington, owned by the cotton exporting firm of Alexander; Sorunt & Son. of this city, prior to government ownership, was borne out by last night s dispatches, whicn stated that, the vessel burned was the big oil burner that was acquired sev eral months -ago by the Sprunts and Which has been regarded as a Jonah In shipping circles. The steamer was carrying a cargo of cotton and food stuffs and was bound for an European port when the fire broke out and completely destroyed her. The trouble occurred iust south of Sable Island Saturday morning. The flames burst from . the hold wstn great suddenness during the early morning and spread with unusual rap idity, driving the members of the crew to the boats in short orderl ! One of the" last men to leave the vessel was the radio operator. AVith the flames sweeping the doomed ship fore and aft he stuck to his post, flashing out his S. O. S., thus keep ing land stations informed of the ship's position and the progress of the fire, while members of the crew were rapidly piling into boats. Ue sent .word that he was going to mate a final search to make sure all hands were safe. After exploring the por tions of the vessel that were not en veloped in flames he jumped back to his kev. called the nearest station and reported -that the boat- was free of men The flames werev leaping skyward almost as high .as the foremast when he flashed his last message, "Me for the nearest boat, good-bye. in tne meantime his calls for help were an swered by a Norwegian steamer, as the Norwegian steamed away after picking up the Wilmington's crew the steamer was a roaring furnace, envei ooed in flames from stem to stern. The steamer was built on the Pa cific coast several years ago. She was an oil burner, single screw, with a capacity of 4,7'50 tons dead weight capacity. She was Pougnt oy tne Sorunts in New York two years ago and from that time until American shinbine was taken over by the Fed eral government last rear, was used in the trans-Atlantic cotton trade by her owners. She made several trips across the ocean since the Germans instituted their ruthless submarine warfare. The vessel anneared at this port in the latter part of March to take on a cargo of cotton for Frencn muis. AND NEW LIVERPOOL YORK COTTON DECLINE I don't care now whether I marry Mr. Staffin or not." said Miss Laura Lesh, the young woman who was tak en into custody by Patrolman Apple- bury last r naay aiternoon upon a technical charge and who is being held at police headquarters upon re- quest or. tne reaerai autnonties wnn the nhiect oi determining ner sanity, when a Dispatch representative dronoed by her . cell this morning and engaged her in conversation. "I'm a Federal prisoner, you - know," she said, "and consesuently belong to TTne.ie Sam. I guess that makes me a member of the army and I want a smn " she continued. Miss Lesh is very much opposed to the Kaiser and so expressed her self "Down with the Kaiser and .up with Secretary Dariel3,,; was her ex pression. I want to kill Germans, she said, "and as for marrying Mr. Staffin I don t think about that much now. Of course, n we were to get into the same regiment and he pro posed to me l suppose 1 would ac cept, but I think I have done enough proposing," she said. "Don't you " Continuing, tne young woman ad vised the newspaper man that the best way in the world to get news was to get locked up. All news comes to police headquarters, she said, and s convinced that the best way In tne world for a newspaper man to scoop i ir. contemporary is to get in Jail. She is being held with tne object of determining her sanity. It has heon nassed on one time and decision n her, favor returned, but It must he eone into again.

Her Eng Hsfh is remarkably good and she is mithnritv for the statement that she taught in the public schools of Ral eigh less than two years ago, saying that, she had a hundred dollar job of fered her in Indiana teaching, but that she could not afford to go that far. Then. too. Staffin was in this section and the woman is frank to say that she is very much attached to him. Tn renlv to questions concerning her arrest, she said that che imagined she was locked up because she visited staffin at the fort without the proper puihoritv and that she went back to the office of the district attorney after being advised to stay away. Asked if she was being treated properly tit headquarters her answer was in the affirmative, the woman saying that she could not ask for bet ter treatment; that the officer on duty yesterday afternoon allowed her the freedom of headquarters for exercise and that she appreciated that thought-fi-naae Rut sho ia tired of remain- She . was -loaded with 7jU00 bales at ing'in confinement and cannot under the Sorunt compress in thlte city and stand why she should be kept there on tne zotn leit on ugu uue l u wnen uncie earn ueeus fwwuo w. n'ninr.v in the morning.
