IfiCEfiDlARY. STARTS A I
VERY DANGEROUS FIRE
- i .- :
Paper Oiled and Set on
4 Fire Near Group of
' Store Buildings
Timely arrival of Policeman F. L.
Tyslnger prevented, what would in all
probability been a disastrous incendi
ary blaze, when ho discovered - and
frustrated an attempt to burn, the re
freshment Btore of Charles Sladgt on
West First Street, about; . two o'clock
yesterday morning.' , Paper1 had been
crammed underneath the floor of the
stand and there- were evidences that
kerosene had been poured upon it. The
flames had begun to' leap dangerously
when Mr. Tyslnger arived.i . v ,
Three bottles had been' burst by the
flame, each still eontanlng kerosene
oil, while Just outside lay an empty
bottle with a few drops of oil in the
bottom and an empty can .containing
the same evidence. ,'f
Mr, .Tyslnger each night makes a
thorough round of the city, visiting all
sections In order to see ' that all ' Is
peaceful. As he was passing throtigh
an alley not far from the cold drink
stand he caught sight of the blaze,
which was already leaping angrily
against the floor. '
This place of business is located just
behind a two-story wooden building.
belonging to Jule C. Smith, which in.
turn abuts the brick store building of
Mr. Smith. Other property is nearby
and if the flames had gotten a good
start might have been destroyed. .
Mr. Tyslnger has been on the force
since January and has not missed a
single night from duty in that time.
He makes it a practice of entirely pa
trolling the city at least once during a
night so that he. might observo any
thing wrong, following the same paths
that he followed when he was an of
ficer twenty years ago., , i'

No Such Place as Fried burg
The Journal confesses to error In
spelling the name, of one f the) moat
progressive and widely known com
munities In Forsyth county, and is un
der obligations to one of Its good
friends sad a native of that commun
ity for setting It straight Public cor
rection Is hereby made both for rnir
own and tho benetlt of many others
who have also sinned against Fried-
berg. - .
It Is never Frledburg, If you ever
noticed It spelled that way In The
Journal, pleaao forget It. We were
wrong. It has always been Friedbi-rg '
it leant It has been known by that
nume ever since the year 1754, whi n
tho Moravians settled that In-uutlful
spot In this section of North Carolina.
Frlcdhcrg Is not an arbitrary name,
cither. There's a reason for it. and a
very good one, too. It mcsiui some
thing. Translated, It Is "hill of peace. "
llelng that, there Is no posxthle way l y
which one could make Frledburg out
or It.'
The sulllx "burc'' nn-sns a town or
village. The ku;i:x "Irf-rg" minim a
hill or eminence, l'rl. il l.-i k Is a In .,u
tlful pluteuu. That, iiml tlm fell
of the soil art what nuia.-(ed I' , !
