In the Central lobby, sitting at a window, with his feet upon an iron lonesomely at the KtreVt was Mr. S. J. Elder, lantn a rptiorter saw Mr, judged that he would like to "talk to somebody. . Now, it won't do for a reporter to walk up to a man upon whom he is preying for a stunt and announce, "My name .is Smith; I'm a newspaper man;" for the stranger will then sit silent or else he will try to wedge in a little free advertising. Nor will It do to begin asking Ques tions; that makes the man suspicious. So the reporter flopped down In a chair near Mr. Elder and fell to lock ing gloomily at the street. ' Little dusty to-day," remarked Mr. Elder, after a while. ' That made the game easy and the reporter agreed with enthusiasm that it was horribly dusty. "What is your line?" Mr, Elder wanted to know. . "I am not a traveling man, the reDorter evaded. "What is yours.' POSITIVELY NO CONTENTIOX. Again comes the Baltimore News protesting against The Observer's de cision to abandon the movement for an organlxatlon of the Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence signers descendants. This time The News goes so wide of the mark as to inti mate that The Observer quit because The Macon, Telegraph jet it out that "as a matter of fact, there, is n pa per In existence with the orlglnaj sig natures of the reputed signers of the Mecklenburg Declaration attached to it." The News seems to forget that The Telegraph left the 'Philadelphia Declaration's signers and signatures In pretty much the same plight, albeit the original, Philadelphia paper has escaped destruction by Are even unto this day. "To overcome such an ob stacle,' says our able but perverse .Baltimore contemporary, "was a task that would call into play the marked energy and initiative of j)ur esteemed contemporary. The Charlotte Observ er, and we should have been pleased to mark and 'celebrate its achieve ments In embellishing American his tory."; .This, sounds nice, but The Ob server ia proof against cajolery, as well as deceit.

The crowd that jammed the middle car of, a Subway express yesterday turned with one accord to ascertain the source of the soft, well-modulated voice of command. Every eye was riveted on the numerals "0.1132 on the front of the guard's cap. "Don't delay your departure, please,", purred he, entirely oblivious to the excitement he was causing.
