Agents Wanted TRIED TO HIDE CRIME HIGH POINT SECTION WROUGHT UP OVER THE ARREST OF ED HODGIN. CHARGED WITH THE MURDER Killed John Lovstt Whoss Mang led Body Was Found on Track — Sensational Development* Are Expected. High Point. —As he was bringing his two young daughters to town to go to their daily work, Ed Hodgln was arrested by Chief B. C. Ilidge and Deputy Sheriff J. L. I'arrlsh of this city on a charge of the murder of John Lovett. whose body was found in a terribly mangled condition by a section master on the morning of the 18th near Mendenhall's cross ing, on the main line of the Southern Railway, several miles northeast of High Pcint. It was known for over a week that Hodgln was under strong suspicion, and' that circumstantial evidence, it was said, seemed to point strongly to his guilt. For some reason or other the authorities were a little slow to take the Initiative In the matter. This may have been for want of evidence which they thought was lacking when the mangled body was found, Evi dently Lovett was run over during the night. But It was also apparent that, the innn must have been dead for several hourß before being placed on the railroad tracks, ns there was scarcely any IOSB of blocd. This, and several other very auspicious circum stances, led Chief Kidge and his auso clntes to tho .conclusion that there was oul play. And, when all the evi dence —circumstantial and otherwise —ls in, it will no doubt prove that they were correct In their surmises. The motive for the murder of Lov ett, if murder it was, was the rob bery of sl.lß, which was known to have been on the person of the dead man, and which was missing when his body was found. Discharged Two Deputy Marshal*. New Bern. —VV. J Benton, of White vllle, N. C. and J. L. McLauchlan. of Maxton, N. C-, both United States Deputy Marshals, were discharged from the service in this city for be coming intoxicated while they were in their performance of their official dutieH. Benton and McLauchlan came to this city from Wilmington with some prisoners whom thoy were bringing over for trial 1n Federal Court, which is now in session In this city, En route they became in toxicated and while on the train used such Indecent language In the pres ence of several ladies and the other passengers, and otherwise conducted themselves in such an offensive man ner that they were reported to the federal authorities. Goodman Guilty of Manslaughter. Concord. After be ng out three hours, the Jury in the ense of state vs. Robert Ooodinun, charged with the murder of Sidney Uarrler, which occurred at Hud Goodman's near-beer stand last January,-returned a verdict of guilty of manslaughter. The trial lasted three days and attracted great Interest. A large number of wit nesses were examined on both aides and a remarkable feature of the trial was the fact that not an objection was tiled by either counsel. The de fendant, who is only IS years of age and has been under a ♦lll,OOO bond, was remanded to Jail until Judge W. J. Adams passes sentence. Aviator Narrowly Escapes Death. Fayettevtlle. —While making a trial flight at the Fayettevtlle fair grounds in a Strobel biplane Aviator K. Bel ton, of Chicago, fell thirty feet to the ground and nufrowly escaped death through the fortunate landing of his machine on the edge of a ditch which threw the aeronaut forward on his head, otherwise the weight of his engine might have crushed the nervy aviator, who arrived here to fly the machine which Harry had abandoned on account of the per ilous circumstances surrounding the flights, which were to ( be made here. Contract For Dormitory Awarded. Winston-Salem, —The contract was awarded to Kogle Bros. Co., of Win ston-Salem, • for the erection of a line new dormitory class room and office building for Salem Academy and College. Work will be started Immediately. The new building is made necessary because of the in creased number of boarding students. The accommodations were increased 14 per cent, during the summer, but this session President Kondthaler had to refuse admission to 18 per cent, of the new applicants. One of The Moat Noticeable Thinge. Marshvllle. —One of the most no ticeable things for men who were looking for something of real worth at the atate fair at Raleigh was the exhibit of the Boys' Corn Cluba and tomatoes and other canned goods ex hibited by the glrla of the Tomato Club, These clubs are of real worth to boys and glrla of the South, be cause they instil into their young natures a liking for the improved methods of agriculture, and at the same time stimulate Interest among older people.

C. 474, PLACE—Shuaan (Suaa) the winter capi tal of the Persian Empire, about 200 miles aoutheaat from Babylon and 125 mllea north of the Peralan Gulf. There are two principal tbeorlea concerning the historical nature of the Boole of Esther: one, that It la a veritable history; the other, that It Is a historical romance founded on fact, like Shakespeare's Jullua Caeaar and Henry VIII., or like Scott's norela, or Homer's great epics. While there are a number of serious difficulties, yet there are few If any unanswerable arguments against its being a true his tory. Xerxes Is the Greek shortened form of the Ahasuerus of Esther, as York, for Instance, Is a shortened form of the Latin Eboracum. He began to reign B. C. 486 and ruled for 20 year*. We can best understand Esther bjr means of those parts of his history which reveal his character. Xerxes at the very beginning of his reign completed the conquest of Egypt which his father Darius had begun. On his return he immediately began to prepare for tho Invasion of Europe, and especially of Greece. Xerxes sought a queen In place of the deposed Vashtl. The one select" ed from tho most beautiful women of tho empire was Esther, a charming Jewess, a descendant of ono o? the exiles, her great-grandfather being among those carried captlvo to Baby lon by Nebuchadnezzar In 598. Her Hebrew name was lladassah, the myrtle, a beautiful and favorlto shrub in tho east. "Esther" means "a star," and many think It tho same as Ishtar the Babylonian equivalent of Venirt. She must have been quite young at the tlmo of her marriage, not over 15 years. Four or five years pass, and then begins the tragic story of Haman, his rise as a king's favorite, his pride Incensed at tho conduct of Esther's cousin Mordecal, his attempt to bring vengeance upon the whole Jewish race on Mordecal's account, his success In obtaining a decree from the king, throughout hl3 empire, "to destroy, to kill, and to cause to perish nil Jews, both, young and old, little children, and women, In one day." . ___ Urent mourning nnd terrible dis tress came upon the Jews all over the empire as they learned of the de cree. Mordecal sent word to Esther, now about 20 years old, asking her to go to the king aud request the de liverance of her people. Esther re plied "Whosoever shall come unto tho king Into the Inner court, who Is not called, there Is ono law of his to put him to death. Except Buch to whom the king shall hold out tho golden scepter." There was, there fore, a possibility of Esther's reach ing the ears of the king, but with tho greatest uncertainty as to how such a capricious king would act, especially as his loVo for her had | cooled. Tho mission "Mordecal com mitted to Esther was one of great danger and difficulty. It required tho I utmost heroism. Esther put on her royal apparel. She was a sensible, practical woman, and used her beauty and charm of person and of dress to accomplish her object. She waited for the fitting: time. The king held out the golden sceptre. The sign that he received her, and that tho most dangerous part of her mission was over. Instead of asking her favor, where she would be sur rounded by spies and possible ene mies, sho invited the king to a ban quet In the secluaion of the Harem gardens. She invited Haman her en emy to Join with the king and thus ward off all suspicion and at the same time have him vhere he could not escape. /L Esther presented he* petition In wise words and pointed out Hainan as the enemy who was seeking her life and the life of her people. The king was very angry und Immediate ly deposed Haman. and had him hanged on the gallows he had pre pared for Mordecal. The result was a co interacting de cree, permitting the Jews to stand up in their own defense, and large numbers of their enemies were slain. The Jews were saved from destruc tion, and exalted befcre the people. Mordecai took Haman's place in the government. The feast of Purim was Instituted with great feasting and joy, and has been celebrated annual ly ever since on the fourteenth of Adar, February-March, one month be fore Esther. One of the most Interesting stud ies in the story of Esther is to trace the ways of divine providence, and see how Qod makes all things work to gether for the good of bis people. Ood's sovereign grace and man's free will are here seen in perfect har mony. Heroism in Every Day Life i» the expreaslon and cultivation of the he roic spirit In our ordinary dally liv ing. We cannot all be heroes in great things, but the field of heroism is ev erywhere, In every home, In every 'own. There are great enemies .. to overcome In our own hearts. poninai HBS PASSING OF POPULAR FOWL Tremendous C-emand for Plymouth Rocks, and Others Crowding Langshans Out. The Langshan, or, as Its admirers like to call It, "the Lordly Langshan." apparently has been losing ground la popularity, like the other Asiatic (owls. It may be that as many Langshans are bred and sold as ever, but It Is very certain that not so many are ex hibited as formerly. The tremendous jemand for Plymouth Rocks, Wyan dotte* and Rhode Island Reds may make the demand for Langahans ap pear, relatively, small, whllo sufferlni DO actual diminution, says a writer In the Country Gentleman. Still, as th« poultry show is a tolerably safe trad* barometer, I am Inclined to liellevt that the demand to some extent hat really diminished. When the Langshan was first Intro duced, It appeared to many fancleri of Asiatic fowls as an under-bred yt poorly-bred Black Cochin. It lacked the comprctness, full cushion, soft feathering, small tall and heavy foot frather that the Cochin fancier so high ly prizes. It was predicted that it would not succeed as A breed, but th« prediction, like many another, proved worthless. It did succeed. It put th« lllack Cochin badly in the shade. II became very popular. Its number b* enme legions. * v If we seek a reason for Its success our search need not be long. It wai Black Langsban Cock and Hena an excellent layer of large eggs. l\ made a good table fowl, though Its whito skin and black plumage hand! capped It somewhat. Valus of Alr-Slaked Lime. Not enough Importance Is placed ot tho value of good air-slaked lime foi use In the poultry house and on tb« runs. Property used, the lime Is or great sanitary value. It will connter act disagreeable odors. A free us« of air-slaked lime on chicken rum where gaps prevail Is exceedingly beneficial. Its use no doubt also de stroys other germs and bacilli. Th« wise poult ryman will always have o good supply of lime on hand and use it both Inside and out of his poultry bouses. Causa of Infertile EQQS. Too many hens with the male bl,rt frequently results in Infertile eggs, tnd If it Is found that germless eggs ire being produced the number should be reduced. Breeding stock which are the progeny of related parents are usually rather npt to produce sterile rggs; this is one of the several rea sons why It Is a mistake to lnbreed. DOULMNOTR Fresh air and sunshine are the best germicides. Do not keep eggs near kerosene of anything that will taint them. Feed breeding duck a crumbly masb twice a day. morning and evening. It Is not necessary to candle good pggs before taking them to market. If any farmer is in doubt concerning his eggs, he should then candle them The Spanish hen's eggs, weighing *even to a pound, are the largest pro -luced. A warm poultry house tends to make the fowls sluggish and unfero iuctlve. Indian Runners will lay from 150 to 200 eggs a year while common ducks lay only from 25 to 50. Dandelion leaves freshly gathered, when they are procurable, contain a valuable liver stimulant. A very common mistake made In keeping poultry is crowding the fowls Into too limited a space. Too many poultrymen batch their chicks so late that tbey have not time to mature for cold weather laying. A new poultry roost is made of per forated Iron tubing which has been • oaked in a solution deadly to insect life. The Pekin is known as the leading market duck of the world and takes flrst place in the American standard af perfection. Many a person will give their chicks good care all through the brooding reason and then neglect them when they go out on range. Cold eggs can be beaten stlffer and lighter than warm ones. Before break ing them, drop In a pan of very cold water for a few momenta.
