Special to The Gazette-Newsi Shelby, March 10. W. T. Clement and L. J.

S. Royster and O. Elam, of this place, 30 days in which to put up a bond of $10,000 to carry out the same contract which was signed with Hawley and Clement. The proposition is that the builders con struct and equip a steam road ac cording to standard specifications and as soon as the $10,000 bond is given to show good faith, the $80,000 in bonds voted by the Belwood-Fallston and Casar districts are to be issued, placed In the hands of a trustee and turned over to the builders along with the $40,000 in bonds voted by the county when the road is in operation.

HAN TOOK POISON 1 ENOUGH TO KILL SIX Guest at Greensboro Hotel Swallowed Glass of Water Containing Bichloride. special to The Gaaette-New s. Greensboro, March 10. A young woman, who gives her name as Kath erlne Batchelor, and who is said to be from Danville, took bichloride of mer cury In her room at the European hotel about one o'clock yesterday morning, and Is still very sick, al though the attending physician hopes now that her life can be saved. "She had quarrelled with one of her . friends," was the only explanation that could be advanced. She had been at the hotel since last Friday, and Monday evening ap peared to be in perfect health and so far as casual observers could tell, free frem worry. A little after one o'clock he telephoned to the night clerk to come to her room; when he arrived he found her in agony from the effects of the drug, which she had taken some ten minutes before. She had dissolved two ordinary anil-septic tablets In a glass of water, which she drank. Each tablet contained 74 or 7 grains of poison. One tablet is more than , enough to inflict certain death, and the glass of water was strong enough , to have killed half a dozen men. H. S. Walsh, a traveling salesman visiting this city, fountl himself in peck of troublo this morning when he was arraifmed in Police court, facing two charges of larceny. In the first case, he was charged with the theft of a raincoat and a razor from Rex Brown and probable cause was found he was placed under a $200 bond fur Superior court. In the second case, he was charged with larceny of a raincoat from the .obby of a local hotel and the etise was continued until March 20. Through friends in the city, the ac cused managed to raise bond In the first case and was released from cus tody. From the evidence in the case. it developed that the prisoner was In toxicated at the time that the alleged theft oocurred, and that he was almost wholly ignorant of the happenings. He is said to be employed by a very prominent firm. Special to The Fazette-News. Rocky Mount, March 10.

ALLIED FLEETS MAKE PROGRESS EACH SIOE ARE BUSY There was a well attended meeting of the supporters of commission gov ernment last night at the offices in the Electrical building. Representa tives from all the precincts as well as those not officially connected with the movement were present. A visitor at the headquarters of either opponents or proponents of the proposed charter will find scenes of great ac tivity. At one table he will see a group of men studying maps of the city, and making diagrams of cer tain localities: while others are stu diously reading over long lists of names. Those interested in maps arc not army men, but they probably know the city of Ashevllle as thor oughly as the German officers with their pocket maps knew the towns of Belgium or northern France. And while those giving their time to mil nlclapl nomeclature are not connect ed with the census bureau, they can tell more about a man's history, his temperament and habits of thought, than any census taker ever found out.
