Observer Bureau, The Be vlll Building, Greensboro, Feb. 21 The Greensboro publrc which had assumed an attitude of Indifference In relation to the proposed new city charter, woke up at the eleventh hour and as a result of the waking there will be no new charter. Greensboro will worry along; under her presen form of government for two year more at least. During the past wee the board of aldermen caused the pro posed charter to be printed In pamph let form for distribution among th people of the elty, and as the peopl read some of them began to see ghosts and other uncanny things. Th death-knell of the chirter was sound ed at a mass meeting held In th county court house last night, whe a large crowd of tax-payers assembled to discuss the merits and demerit of the chart of government as drafted by the municipal mariners. It was the first time any real Interest had been manifested in the matter by the pub lie, and the discussions were not with out interest SEVERAL SPEAK IN OPPOSITION Mayor Brandt presided over the meeting, and at times he had his hands full In keeping the parliamen tary rudder true. The opponents of me new charter opposed the com mission form of government In gener al and other features Incidentally. A flood of pent-up oratory was turned loose and dosens of motions were made Judge R. M Douglas, ex-Mayor J. W. Forbls, Mr. O. C. Taylor and others talked against the proposed charter. The cause of the charter was upheld In a vigorous manner by Alderman John L. King. City Attorney snaw and other gentlemen. After FOR SALE A piano, good as new; will sell cheap.

Secretary T. W. Crews has issued the following letter to all hard yarn spinners In the South: "Southern Hard Yarn Spinners. "Gentlemen: I am to-day In re ceipt of a large number of replies to my letter of the 18th Inst, urging me to call a general meeting of hard yarn spinners as soon as possible. "I, therefore, call a meeting, to be held In the assembly rooms of the Southern Manufacturers' Club, this city. Thursday afternoon, February ,25th, 109, at 1 o'clock. "I hardly think It necessary to call attention to the importance of this meeting the prompt replies to my letter of the 18th indicate the interest spinners have in the matter. I want to suggest, however, that un less we have a full attendance, noth ing of any service to the ' spinners can be accomplished, and I urge all spinners to make a special effort to attend this meeting and" aid In de veloping a movement to restore yarn .Jstces to areasonable basis.

They say that the majority of the people favoring the new charter, be llevlng there was no serious opposition to the measure, remained at home or at their places of business, while those who desired no change In the plan of city government attended the meet ing and got In their work. HEARING AS TO FISHER ESTATE. There will be a hearing before Judge Boyd, in the United States Dis trict Court, on the 24th lnst., on an Injunction restraining Mr. A. . L. Brooks, a former trustee of the es tate of the late B. J. Fisher, from pay ing over to the present trustee a sum of money held In trust by him. The money was tied up on account of a dispute as to attorney's fees alleged to be due to Col. John N. Staples. Af ter the death of Captain Flaher there waa a disagreement as to the amount due Colonel Staples, who had repre sented the deceased in important mat ters for several years. The matter was submitted to arbitration, the arbi trators being Messrs. Clement Manly, of Winston-Salem; Reuben D. Reld, of Wentworth, and R. C. Btrudwlck. of this oity. The arbitrators allowed Colonel Staples $7,000. and Mr. Brooks had paid 11,500 of this sum when suit wa slnstttated by Mr. C. A. Bray, the present trustee of the Fisher estate, to set aside the award of the arbitrators. Mr. Bray won the suit In the Guilford Superior Court, whereupon counsel for Colonel Staples obtained an injunc tion restraining Mr. Brooks from pay ing over the money to the trustee of the estate. Should the Injunction he made permanent. Colonel Staples will receive the amount awarded him. On the other hand, should the verdict of the Superior Court stand, Mr. Brooks will be required to pay to the estate not only the money he has in his pos session, but also the 13,500 he has advanced to Colonel Staples as coun sel fees. REAL TRAVELING MEN SATIS FIED. It has been understood that the traveling public generally disapproves of the rule of the Southern Railway requiring mileage to be exchanged for tickets before the passengers hoard trains, but If what Mr. T. A. Lyon, a well-known traveling shoe salesman of this city, tells The Observer cor respondent Is true, such Is not the case. Mr. Lyon says that every legit imate traveling man of his acquaint ance (and his acquaintance stretches from XIalne to Mexico) heartily ap proves of the regulation and would not see It otherwise. Mr. Lyon de clares that the real traveling men hava no sympathy with proposed leg islation requiring mileage to be "pulled" on the trains. REPLY PLEASED GREENSBORO FIREMEN. The members of the Greensboro Are department are intensely Interested in the firemen's relief bill now before the Legislature, whereby it Is proposed to levy a tax of one per cent, of the pre mium Income on all Are Insurance companies doing business In this State for the relief of disabled firemen. Un der the present law the heme com panies are exempted from the tax and the foreign companies pay only one half of one per cent- As a result, the firemen contend that In cities and towns, where a great deal of the in surance is carried by the home com panies the relief fund amounts to practically nothing, since the fund in each municipality Is derived from the taxes collected from premiums paid there. In Greensboro, for instance, where the home companies are es pecially strong, the fund last year amounted to only $150. The legislative committee raged by the orime alleged to have been committed by L. H. Gillie, the wealthy near-beer saioon proprietor . charged with criminal assault on a I 12-year-old girl, have made up a purse to pay counsel fees in prosecut ing the defendant. The preliminary bearing is to be held before Recorder Burton Tuesday, and this morning a committee of citizens retained Mr. A. L. Brooks to appear for the prosecu tion. Mr. Brooks will be assisted by Messrs. P. W. Glldewejl and Harry P Lane, well-known young lawyers Reldsville and Leaksville. Judge W P. Bynum. Jr . of this city, and Scot ft Reld, of Reldsville and Wentworth will represent the defendant. The al leged crime has caused a distinct sen satlon in Reldsville and there is muc feeling in the matter. The child vie tim Is the daughter of a poor widow ana it is understood that the cltlsen of the town stand ready to raise an aomunt of money necessary to prose cute the case against the alleged rap 1st.

Having Never Even Slept In a Bed, Although They Have Spent All Their Lives in Cpper Mecklenburg County. Bound by the closest ties of mutual esteem and affection, born of ti years of friendship, like that of Da mon and Pythias, there dwells In up per Mecklenburg a pair whose youth fulnese has suffered no Impairment with the passing of the years, whose Interest In life has not dulled In the least, although they rarely venture more than t stone's throw from their home Neither probably haa ever seen or even heard, of a railroad train, though both probably have been alarmed by undue proximity of reck lessly speeding motor cars. They nev er saw nor heard of a telephone, nev er attended church, never slept in a bed. Now surt'j you will agree that this couple Is .1 quite remarkable pair and their record is worty o fnote espe cially when you hear In mind that both have attained unto the ripe old age of S9 years, every day of which was spent In Mecklenburg county Yet even If they had been residents here on May 20th. 1T7&, they would not prove very good witnesses either for or against the authenticity of the famed Declaration This may not seem to square with the statement that they are not interested In life, but It does. They are simply not in terested In that sort of life, that's all. Within their more or less narrow ho rizon, circumscribed by categories that we wot not of, they are contented and reasonably happy. But enough of mystery. You shall be Introduced forthwith. The philo sophical old couple Is composed of one gander told enough to be capitalized) and one peacock. That may or may not cause you to make, a noise like one who haa been Jarred. But all these things are true. The gander and peacock are at present the property of Mra Bona Alexander, of the Gllead neighbor hood, west of Huntersville. Until the death or the lamented Dr. Edward Caldwell, of that same section, a few months ago. the fowls were his prop erty and an interesting fact is that they were of one age with him. Dur ing his last illness he gave the birds to Mrs. Alexander, a friend, remarking that he and they were of the earns age and asking that they be well cared for, which of course they are, being high ly prized. No one would ever suspect from a casual Inspection that the gan der and the peacock were old enough to vote when the civil war broke out, hut they were Year In and year out while history was In the making at home and abroad, while Oovernors, Senators. Congressmen, Presidents, were born and died, these two. far from the madding crowd's Ignoble strife, have kept the even tenor of their way. How many a brush has the venera ble peacock yielded in the yearly sac rifice of his proud tail feathers! Three score and more that have doubtless done effective service In many a household. The peacock fly-brush is not of now except In remote Instances. It is of the days of Dr. J. B. Alexand er a- - Col. C. S. Wooten. of La Gran " home was complete with out t. 1 brushes, waved proud ly to and fro by a black-skinned at tendant. But a peafowl and a gander 89 years old and still in good health without taking any tonics, nervines, breakfast foods, electrical massages, or so,da fountain drinks! Isn't that something to think about. If it is to be a full dress occasion .you'll perhaps nsed a new shirt, white gloves, a fine pair of sox, a white tie or some other thing in the line of high grade fiimiBhinga. Silk Hats, $8.00.
