All associations are thu enabled to work along the same Unas, pray conceitedly for the same things and study the same subjects. Such concerted action tends to bring them closer toger In a feeling of brother hood and responsibility for the ad vahcment of a common cause. The efficacy of such a week of prayer can not be underestimated and the more Interest taken the greater the results should be. For the greatest accom plishment, the associations ask every member, and non-members tor that matter, who are Interested, to join In the services and take a personal re sponsibility upon himself In the ad vancement of the work.

"DREAFJLAND" THEATRE TO BE OPENED One of the Most Up-to-Date Moving Picture Houses in , the State. One of the finest, most up-to-date and attractive moving picture houses In the olty or, in facC In the whole state, will be opened In Ashevllle Mon day evening at o'clock. That theater IS "Dreamland," located on Battery Park place In the old "Burton Holt store room, and to appreciate what It la requires a trip there for personal In veitliratlon. Boms Idea may be given in a description of the great changes that the place has undergone sines Mr. Bchurman derided to open It but It would be hard for one to believe un less It Is seen. - The Interior of the house has been entirely changed and the floor put at such an Incline that the rear seats will be aa good as the front ones. The place seems larger, too, and the rom rurtahle opera chairs that hive been HHIuUnI Will utl'MH. ,!'!, 5 C i ieoill. repainted and the walls plastered and kalsomlned. Arrangements have been made for complete ventilation, ton, and those going to the show will not have to grope In the dark In finding a seat Light will be on all around the house and will not Interfere In the least with the clearness of the pictures for a slivered screen will be used on which the pictures may be clearly out lined In a bright light All modern devices for rendering the place fire proof have been used. A handsome front has also' been constructed and with the myriads of electric bulbs the big sign, "Dream land," will resemble In a small way a similar ons at far away and famous Coney Island. The decorations under the arch arenot fully completed. There will be the further attraction there of a full orchestra. It Is really an automatic. Instrument but If you close your eyes you will scarcely know that It Is not a real flesh and blood orchestra. The muslo for the show will b fur nished by a piano and an automatlo Italian harp. The harp, as well as ths "orchestra," Is an Innovation In Ashevllle and thoss who know say that Its muslo Is of the best and well In keeping with the spirit of the plaoe. The pictures will be the beet that can be procured, the' management an nounces, and with two machines, a fllckerless screen and a licensed oper ator, a continuous - high grade per formance will be given. Muslo, pic tures, surrounding, everything will doubtless produce a land of enchantment.- Gazette-News Bureau, Daily News Building, Greensboro, Nov. 10. Spectators In Judge Eure's Munici pal court yesterday were witnesses of the novel incident of an accused "blind tlgercr" pleading guilty to the charge lodged against his by the Btate and that with the prosecuting witness absent. The defendant was "Dr." B. M. Weiss and evidently the "Doc" spoke a bit too hastily. It seems that the case originated tho day before when the stated witness In another case gave evidenco that failed to stand and yesterday when the case against Weiss was called and the defendant had Interposed his plea of "guilty" the state's witness failed to answer when called. The defendant's plea, of course subject to amendment, was the only evidence that the state had and the case was ordered continued. When lit is called again it Is probable that "Doc" will revise his former plea to the extent of Inserting the word "not' before the guilty. The Hook for the Hammer. 'Silence the hammer!" That Is the cry of citizens or the Jackson street section of Greensboro, and the courts of North Carolina will be asked to do the silencing. The case is interesting, It is a cause wherein the people of the and the courts of North Carolina Jackson street section are pitted against the Standard Boiler and Ma chine company. J. R. Moreneld is the moving spirit in having the ham mer silenced. It seems that the ham mer is the property of the Standard Boiler and Machine company. Is used to flatten rivert heads with which boilers are put together and the sound of steel striking steel hour after hour I every day has got on the nerves of the residents near the boiler works and now tne courts nave Deen asxeu to silence the offending hammer. The petition asking for an injunction lagalnBt tho hammer was heard by Judge O. H. Allen in Roxboro and on the petition of the complainant Judge Allen granted a temporary mjuction restraining the use of the hammer pending a fuller hearing in the mat ter. The final hearing will fee naa at Roxboro Tuesday and a nifty legal battle over the "hammer question Is expected. The people of Greensboro espec lally the football enthusiasts are keenly awaiting the Davidson coiiege- Wake Forest game here today, infor mation from Davidson college last nleht was to the effect that the stu dent body of that Institution had per fected arrangements for a special ex cursion train to be operated from Davidson to Greensboro and that the entire student body would be present I to witness the game. Narrow Escape From Death. Yesterday at Jamestown, near Greensboro. Ernest Frailer, a son of J. A. Frailer of that place and brother of Plato Frazler of Greensboro, had la narrow escape from death by bein thrown from a buggy and then drag ged several hundred feet. Mr. Fra zier Is In a serious condition. It seems that the horse he was driving took frght and ran away. Mr. Frazler be came entangled In part of the buggy from which he was thrown and was dragged over the rough road for sev oral hundred feet, sustaining a sprain ed ankle, many bruises and perhaps Internal Injury. It is regarded as a miracle almost that he was not killed outright. The Davidson County fair at Lexlng ton closed In a "blase of electricity Thursday night and also amid a down pour of rain. The magnificent display of fireworks was witnessed by a large crowd of people notwithstanding the Inclement weather. The crowd was comparatively small on account of the cold rain, there not being more than 6000 In attendance It Is said, while last year on the closing day a crowd estimated at 20,000 people attended. The exhibit this year were far supe rlor to any previous year, especially in the women's work department The number of entries was astonish ingly large. W. M. Montgomery of Greensboro, who Judged the poultry department says that the entries were very line; that he was surprised to learn that there was so' much line poultry raised around Lexington DlHpaU'htng Trains by Telrplione, The Southern Railway company, in the furtherance of Its plan of dis patching trains by telephone, tias asked for estimates for an extension of Its telephone lines from Monroe. Va to Greensboro, so as to make the system extend without break from Salisbury-Spencer to Monroe, Va. There Is now In operation 120 miles snd it Is stated here that the service has proven very satisfactory. DIs- natchers In Greensboro maintain that for running trains ths telephone is superior to the telegraph, although they are frank to admit that the days of the "knights of the key" are far from being numbered. The dispatch Ing of trains by telephone over the Southern system I -et in an expert mental stage and tut this reason the two systems will for a time, at least be maintained, although the ' tele graph operators from here to Monroe now use the telephone In running trains exclusively.
