Raleigh.—The senate apent two houra debating Senator Boyden'a bill appointing a state building commis sion and authorizing a mllllon-dollar bond issue to erect a state administra tion building In Raleigh, and, owing to the opposition developing, the friends of the bill decided to offer a substitute calling for a f&OO.OOO bond Issue for this purpose. General Carr introduced a bill to create a tax commission and state board of equalization. A bill by Taylor of Brunswick would reduce the number of state oil inspectors kept in the field by the state board of agriculture. Southern Gets Demanda. The Southern railway company wins out in Its fight on the Ray bill, that would exact forfeiture of the charter of tho Tennesee & Southern railroad if the line from Franklin is not resumed and pushed to comple tion within a specified time. The comjnlttee offered a substitute giving the company ten yoars in which to complete tha line. The senato bill allowjng mutual (Ire Insurance companies to be formed by parties engaged In the same lino of business with twenty-fivo risks re ceives favorable report from tho sen ate committee on insurance, which also reports favorably on the bill re lixtivo to investment of capital of In surance companies as to title guaran tees. Senator Long's bill giving the right for search where liquor is presumed to bo kept for Illegal purposes Is re ported with prejudice by the commit tee on revisal. Senator Cotten'n bill prohibiting the manufacture and sale of non safety matches in North Carolina is bitterly opposed by match nianufac turerero of Now York, Ohio and many other states and representatives of these concerns attended a meeting of the senate committee on propositions and grievances and made a vigorous protest. Tho bill was roferrcd to a sub-committee. Social Clubs Pester Committee. Senator Brown's bill, which Is de signed to breajc'up the locker system in clubs, seems to be pestering the committee considerably. The mem bers have discussed it in a number or meetings, but each time the-bill go« 3 to a sub-committee for further spe cial Investigation. The Boyden-Slkes state highway commission bill, as merged and agreed upon by the joint public rondß com mittees and favorably reported, also receives a favorable report from the Joint committees on appropriation, with an amendment reducing the ap propriation for maintenance of the commission from $20,000 to SIO,OOO. Tho Joint appropriations committee nlso heard a delegation of prominent negroes of Charlotto on Senator Pharr's bill asking for a $5,000 appro priation for the proposed reform and Industrial training school for colored youths. Senator Pharr's bill amend ing the general Insurance laws of the state, carrying a small appropriation ; for messenger service and other office expenses of the Insurance Commis sioner, gets a favorable report.

The road Is to strike High Point from Winston, thence on to Greensboro and Burlington, diverg ing there on its route to Raleigh, mak ing a shorter route from Greensboro to the capital city. Curiosity About Four Trunks. Winston-Salem. The mystery of four big sample trunks, or where is the owner, is the all engrossing ques tion at the town of Dalton, near here. The trunks were checked from King to Dalton on February 2, by a well: built, fashionably attired salesman, whose identity has not been learned. He let his trunks leave the train at Dalton but himself continued en route. When Conductor Crews interrogated him, the man said, "Oh, I'm going to Pilot Mountain and will return." now has the signatures of twetre members.

McLean of Lumberton and It was unanimously'adopted by a rising rote and sent to the house by a special messenger. Not In the "Pauper Class." Senator I vie arose to a question of personal privilege and called attention to the report of the state treasurer, v/blch he charged was unfair to cer tain countlos in the state by reason of tho fact that it did not give those counties credit for the taxes paid direct Into the state treaanry as well as by sheriffs, thus placing these coun ties in the pauper list, when tbey should not be so called. Senator Long, arising to a question of personal privilege, said he wanted to be class ed with the plaintiffs In this case, as his county had suffered the humlUe*- tion of the name "pauper" unjustly Senator Bassett felt sure ample Jus tlce would be done to all counties In it revised report which he understood was being prepared and when dlspo sttion la made of a Joint resolution on this BubJect now In the hands of the committee on propositions and griev ances. Anti-Trust Bill With "Teeth." Another anti-trust bill came Into tho house, through Turlington of Ire dell, who pronounced It to have the most amplo "teeth." It codifies the present anti-trust law so much criti cised as being ineffective; makes sub section "F" sub-section "O" and makes it read "contpire or agree]' Instead of "conspire" only to restrain trade. It gives the attorney general the power to examine witnesses and prosecute for contempt of court when any re fuse to testify; places $10,009 fund at tho disposal of tho governor with which to pay the expenst) of working up cases, tho attorney general and tho solicitors to prosecute All for eign corporations are required to file affidavits July 1 each year they hav ing In no wiso violated the anti-trust law. The unfavorable report came from the house committee on propositions and griovances for the Koonce bill for a legislative commission to inves tigate the conduct of fire Insurance companies in North Carolina. Mr. Koonce filed his minority favorable report and the resolution was made a special order. The house refused to concur in the senate amendments to the near-beer bill and Hoffler. Cates and Kent were named by Speaker I>owd as confer ence committee. Hobgood In the senate Introduced an anti-trust bill that adds the essen tial features of the Sherman act to the present law. * Asheville Gets New Government.

Favorable reports came from com mittees us to many bills, Including Wooten bill for placing solicitors on salaries; stato bill for taxing dogs and encouraging aheep industry; provide Institution for feeble-minded; provide for tho examination of school chil dren. The last two were again re ferred. this time to the committee on appropriations. Rewards Bill Deferred. The Spalnhour bill to allow sher iffs and prosecutors S2O to S4O for convicting dlstlllera was argued for considerable time and action deferred. Then the Dlllard bill repealing the it applies to Cherokee county was defeated after Speaker. Dowd made n lengthy speech against It on tho ground that whatever law of the kind iu on the Btatuto books It Bhouid ap ply to all counties alike. Connor and others explained their support of the bill on the plea that It was a local measure and the desire of the rep resentatives should control. This bill was ratified: Prohibit public drunkenness in Transylvania, Forsyth, Robeßon, Graham and Pitt counties. Baptist Minister aa Author. Shelby.—Rev. C. A.

For four or Are years Elijah seems to have retired from public life. He was practicing the lesson he had learned on Horeb. He was at work, but in a different way. His stormy work was not in vain. That plowed the ground, and now was the time for sowing the seed. The seven thousand hidden believers were permitted to come into the open. Persecution had ceased. Otbors came out and joined them. The prophets had no longer to be hidden In a cave by Obadiah. Elijah encouraged and was at the head of the organized communities or schools of the prophets which existed as far back as Samuel. In his last Journey he visited the "sons of the prophets" at Bethel and Jericho, and is spoken of as thejr head master. From these centers and from the schools at Gilgal, Ramah and Oibeah they exerted a strong influence and their appearance at any particular spot was often the signal for the out break of a contagious religious fervor. These settlements may be described as training schools for religious pur poses. Elijah was thus educating the people in the true religious life. He was working in accordance with the still small voice of God. Elijah's success was in finding and training Ellaha to be prophet in his Btcad, training under these newer in fluences and methods The great prophet, so lonely hitherto, had found a friend. If there was one thing Ell- j Jah needed to mellow him, it was that! j Nsboth, a native of Jozreel, had for I hla vineyard an ancestral possession. We learn fhat Noboth was a worship er of Jehovah, and in spite of the per secution of the prophets did not shrink from making It known to the king by his language. Here was an j examplo of one who had not bowed | the knee nor given a kiss to Baal. j Jezebel coveted this vineyard. Jezebel said to Ahab, Arise, take possession of the vineyard. And Ahab went. The Septuagint. adds that he rent his clothes and put on sackcloth, as though shocked at bis crime and anxious to prove his Innocence, to his ! own conscience and to the people. But j the hypocrisy of the act was shown by his willingness to accept the fruits j of the crime. This mourning for the J means but acceptance of the fact I not be In disaccord with Ahab's j moral weakness. Covetousness Is "a root of all kinds ■ of evil." It Is the desire, the motive that lies In the heart, "the prolific I mother of all sins, the cockatrice's egg j from which breaks forth the viper and j the llery flying serpent." It is not an i awful thought that the deadly sin of Judas and of Ananias sprang from | greed? "Still as of old, man by him self is priced; for thirty pieces Judas sold himself —not Christ!" Much of the sin and danger to our land springs from covetousness. The j graft, the dishonesty, the liquor sell ing, the bribery, the fraud of every kind. A clear vision of the evil covetous- | ness works in the covetous man's own | character and destiny. How it de- | grades him, shuts him up In a narrow ing prison like one described among j the tortures of the inquisition, where j the walls drew nearer together by one I notch each day. The doors of oppor tunity are gradually shut against him, and his part in tho bleselng of the great world. The one essential cure is a change of heart that leads to a change of character. It is to give your heart to God, to consecrate your whole being to him, to love and obey him, to strive with the whole soul to build up his kingdom. Ix>ve is the cure of covet ousness; love to God and love to man. Use every opportunity of giving and serving others. Don't complain of so many calls, but rejoice in the oppor tunity; search for opportunities as for hid treasure. God loves the whole souled hilarious giver. Even the poor est can give. They can say, as Peter said to the lame man at the Beautiful gate of the temple, "such as 1 have give I thee." There more to give than mere money; sympathy, work, time, aid In sickness, feeding tfce hungry, shelter, care and a multi tude of other things. Elijah confronted the king in bla 111- gotten property. The word of the Lord came to Elijah. In what form we do not know, any more than we know all the ways In which one spirit Influ ences another. But that it was God's word is a fact "It is Implied that Elijah found Ahab—strode into his presence—in the vineyard. / Ahab walks around his newly gotten vineyard. He admires trellis and clus ter. Suddenly Elijah stands before ' him. He had not seen Elijah for five I years. And Ahab said to Elijah, Hast , thou found me. O mine enemy? And he answered, I have found thee: be -1 cause thou hast sold'thysjilf to work I evil In the sight of the Lord. His sin had found him out. Then Elijah spoke , to him his doom. The dogs should lick his blood in the very spot where they j licked Saboth's blood. Hla sons should he Elain, his wife, Jezebel, perish mis erably. fcls whole dynasty come to an tnd. BLOOD HUMORS It Is c Important that you should now rid your blood of those Impure, poisonous, effetp matters that have accumulated In It during the winter. Th« secret of the unequaled and really wonderful success of Hood's Sarsaparilla as a remedy for Blood Humors is the fact that it combines, not simply sarsaparilla, but the utmost remedial values of more than twenty ingre dients—Roots, Barks and Herbs—known to have extraordinary efficacy in purifying the blood and building up the whole system. There is no real substitute for Hood's Sarsaparilla, no just as good medicine. Get Hood's today, in liquid form or tablets called Sarsatabs.
