Prestwood and Miss Gertrude Walker were quietly married at the home of the bride's uncle, Mr. B. B. Price, yesterday at 12:30 o'clock, Rev. Edward Long officiating. The wedding was witnessed by only a few friends and relatives of the contracting parties.

Mr. Prestwood is superintendent iX the Blue Ridge furniture factory and enjoys the confidence and esteem of a wide circle of friends. The bride is a daughter of L. L. Walker, of Dysartsville, and has many friends who will be inter ested in the announcement of her marriage. A pretty home wedding was that of Mr. W. Gaston Stanford, of Orange count, and Miss Lydia I. Denton, which took place at the home of the bride's mother, Mrs. R. A. Denton, at noon Wed nesday, June 18. Only members of the family and a few intimate friends were present. The cere mony was performed by Rev. Edward Long. Mr. Edgar J. Nichols died sud denly at the home of his aunt, Mrs. J. A. Finley, Tuesday even ing about 7 o'clock. Mr. Nichols had been confined to his room for several weeks on account of a broken ankle but was getting along nicely and throughout the day he was in the best of spirits and apparently in good health. In the evening when a change of position was made it was noticed that something was wrong and he died before anything could be done for him. His death was a srreat shocK to his mends. Apoplexy is supposed to have!hehad "such splendid bargains been the cause of his death. Mr. Nichols was 31 years old and a son of the late J. G. Nichols. For a number of years he has been an employee or tne doutnern Railway company, holding the position of yardmaster. He was a member of Mt. Ida Lodge, K. of P., and the members of the order attended the funeral in a body. He leaves one brother, John Nichols, of Rutherfordton. Mrs. D. F. Giles left Saturday for Webster, where she will as sist in conducting a two weeks institute for Jackson county. Nebo will celebrate the Fourth of July.

Joe was 50 years of aere, and for honesty, industry, truthfulness and faith fulness to duty he set a worthy example which the colored boys of the present day would do well to imitate. Leighton Stuart Cloer, born Feb. 26, 1913, fell asleep June 17, 1913, at 3 p. m., son of Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Cloer. The funer al services were conducted by Rev. C. T. Squires from the home to-day and the interment was at Lower Creek cemetery. The work on the Watauga and Yadkin River Railway was sus pended temporarily last week. It n rumored that the temporary stopping of the work is due to the fact that the State failed to furnish the number of convicts promised. But the indications now are that the required num ber of convicts will be forthcom ing soon, and the work will be resumed and pushed as rapidly as conditions will admit. Other Caldwell Items Lenoir News. Jui.e 20th. The late P. T. Barnum once remarked, that "The American people just like to be hum bugged," and it seems that our own people of Caldwell county are no exception to this rule laid down by the great circus kincr. J Every few weeks we have some striking illustration of this. Sev eral months ago, in one section of the county, a man came along taking orders for made to measure clothing and we are told that he did a land office business, since to offer at ridiculously low prices." Of course he collected in advance, and now it is impos sible to locate the house that he named in the mercantile world, and the man no doubt is feasting on other innocent suckers in an other climate. Mr. Thomas M. Newland, who was sometime ago appointed so licitor of this Judicial district by Gov. Craig, has recently been forwarded his credentials and he will hold his first court at Lincoln ton, beginning July 7th. Mr. Harden Moore, of the Mul berry section, had the misfortune of having a binding needle run through his hand a few days ago while cutting wheat. Mr. Moore was out in the field and was held by the machine for an hour and half before he could be re- leased The wound was naturally very painful, but the hand is re covering nicely, and there will be no ill effects from it unless other complications set in. Beginning June 29, the C. & N. W. Ry. will operate a double daily passenger train service be tween Ed?emont and Chester. Lightning struck a tree in the yard of the old A. P. Puette home Wednesday afternoon, and knocked out several windows of the house, threw the doors off the hinges and badly stunned Miss Stella Puette and Mr. Red- rick Freeman. The tree was standing within ten feet of the house, and it is almost miraculous that no greater damage was done. Mr. Joe Person Dead. Salisbury Post. Mrs. Joe Person died suddenly Thursday en route to California, where she was going on a visit. The death of Mrs. Person re moves one of the most remark able women 01 this day. She was a woman of brain and re markable energies, and who of us can ever forget the genial, sweet-mannered Mrs. Person go ing up and down North Carolina introducing, advertising and sell ing her remedy a medicine which became well known and no doubt made the good woman who made it comfortable in the latter years of her life. Of recent years she made her home in Charlotte, she was in truth at home anywhere in the State. MORGANTON, CATAWBA. Newton Enterprise. June 19th. Of the 77 new doctors licensed by the State medical board at its meeting in Morehead this week are W. C. Boyden, of Hick ory, C. L. Hunsucker. Conover, and W. D. McLelland M oeres ville. Quite often motoring parties from Hickory come down at night over the fine sand-clay roads. Mr. Cicero Cline reports a rye stalk with five heads. It sent out two sets of laterals, each with a good head at top of the parent stalk. He tells us that he once before saw a rye stalk with three heads, but this is the first time he ever saw one wiLh more than three. It looks as if a postmaster at Hickory will be named in a few days. Congressman Webb i;-; now receiving replies to letters he sent to all the voters of the territory giving their first and second choice. He will appoint the one who leads. There are six candidates, and it has been the most dfficult contest Mr. Webb has had to decide. The decision of the church offi cers to discontinue campmeetings at Rock Springs is not at al! popular with the tent owners and the people generally, and some have not given up entirely that the recent decision is final. Cards have been received in Newton by friends of Prof. Je rome Dowd of the University of Oklahoma, at Norman, Oklahoma, of his marriage, June 12th to Miss Alma Watkins of that city. Miss Flossie Frazier of Cataw ba, a student at the Massey Busi ness College at Richmond, Va., recently won a gold medal for the best business writing of ar-y student of the college. RUTHERFORD, Rutherfordton Sun, June 19th. The many friends thoughout Rutherford county of Messrs. CharlesMcDaniel and Roy Long, will be pleased to learn that they were successful in passing the State Board of Medical Examin ers at Morehead City this week and when they shall have secured their licenses will immediately I begin the practice of their pro-1 fession. Both these young men are well connected in Rutherford county and that they will make a success of their chosen profes sion goes without saying. Capt. W. T. R. Bell returned Saturday afternoon from Raleigh, wnere he had been several days attending the Annual Institute Conductors' Conference. Mr. R. B. Quinn has been ap- painted superintendent cf the county's chaingang force and entered upon his duties last week. The chaingang is now located near the farm of Mr. George Big gerstaff on the Hickorynut Gap road. Messrs. J. McNaughton, A. C. C baffle, R. E. Coleman, of Mor ganton, and J. F. Rowland, of Asheville, who are interested in a big lumber deal in this and Polk counties arrived in Rutherfordton Monday night and will spend a week here letting contracts for the sawing and removing of the timber on the lands they have re cently acquired, WATAUGA. Boone News, June 19th. , On last Saturday a crowd of the A. T. S. b ys went to Silver stone to give the boys a little game of baseball. They report a fine time, and especially those who live below the mountains were astounded with the wonder ful scenery, clever people, de licious things to eat and enormous number of pretty girls. Several of the boys ate with that clever citizen, Mr. Carrol Adamr, and O! at the good country ham and eggs, milk and honey, cherries and a world of other good things. Mrs. Adams seemed to be so anxious to give them every need that goes to help a man in making up a square meal.

Asheville Special to Charlotte Observer. Some fear has been expressed in this section of the State that the Government would not grant $10,000 for good road construc tion in McDowell county, be cause of the fact that the high way does not form a portion of 2. continuous road upon which the entire appropriation from the Government for good roads work is to be spent. These fears will be put at rest by the, following statement of the Governor: "It is true that the Postoffice Depart ment has said that all of the $40,000 set apart for Nirth Caro lina must be spent upon one con tinuous road. Before this order was made, I wrote to the Post office Department and to Senator Simmons stating that the people of Old Fort had made arrange ments to raise $20,000 on the as surance by the Postoffice Depar' ment that the Government would contribute $10,000 towards the building of this road. In response to this letter, I received letters from the Postoffice Department and Senator Simmons saying that the Government would stand by this proposition and would donate the $10,000 on terms that appear to me satisfactory and that I presume are satisfactory to the people of Old Fort township. I sent them a copy of the terms upon which the money was to be furnished by the Government and have heard no objections. There is no doubt, therefore, in my mind, but that the Govern ment will furnish the $10,000 for building the road in McDowell county on the side of the Blue Ridge." Ths Art cf Keeping Cool. State Board of Health Bulletin. Keeping cool in hot weather is no easy job. In fact, few people can hold that job down to their own satisfaction. But it is a prop osition thatwe shall all be up against for the next three or four months, so we may as well try to make the best of it. Here are some valuable suggastions which have helped others. They may help you. First of all, don't worry about the hot weather. It is going to come, and all the worrying you can do will not make it any cool er. Reconcile yourself to hot weather and nearly half the bat tle is won. The next thing to do is to dress for hot weather. Wer.r light col ored, light weight, porous cloth ing. Remember that tight cloth ing and tight shoes, particularly in summer, are for a few women only. All men and wise women will leave such things strictly alone. Plenty of water is really the best thing known fcr hot weath er. Drink lots of it. Bathe your self in it inside and out. Drink until you perspire freely. It i? not a disarrace to perspire. It is an aid to health and comfort. Perspiration on your skin is na ture's own way of keeping your self cocl. Regulate your diet to fit the season. In hot weather leave off meats, fats, gravies, butter and other heat producers, and eat fruits and vegetables in abun dance. By drinking an abundance of wrater you can keep your sewer system flushed out. Remember, vou never will be comfortable, particularly in hot weather, if you are constipated.

Charles Ercanbrack, 63 years old, indicted by the Federal grand jury on a charge of having of fered a bribe to a United States Senator to obtain the office at Santa Barbata, faced arraign ment today. He placed reliance in the promise of his wife, Lu cinda, and daughter, Bessie, to "bring the whole town of Santa Barbara down to tell the judge" that he meant no wrong when he wrote Senator John D. Works promising him $1,000 for the postmastership. Ercanbrack admits having of ered Senator Works his cash savings, disavowing any inten tion to commit a crime. "Lots of times we carpenters pay boss carpenter two bits or four bits a ay to git n job, and nothing is thought of it," his statement dds. When Ercanbrack was ar aigned a delay of two weeks before he is required to plead was granted. Bail of $2,500 was 'urnished. Burke County Man Honored. Washiagton Dispatch, 21st. Senator Overman was notified today that L. S. Cannon, former- y of Burke county, N. C, has been appointed chief of the board of examiners in the United States pension bureau, a position that pays $3,200 a year. He is the first Southern man ever to hold his position, no other admini" tration having seemed to re isl the idea of having a Southern man pass on applications of North ern soldiers for pensions. Mr. Cannon was graduated from Wake Forest College in the class of 1892, along with Attorney- General Bickett, and was valedic torian of his class. His record or scholarship at that institu tion was exceptionally high. He has been in the pension bureau for several years. MAN COUGH 3 AND BREAKS RIBS.
