C., THE COUNTY, EX-GOVERNOR JARVIS DIES AT GREENVILLE "i A (JLORIOUS CAREER He Had Been -Minister to Brazil, Uni ted Stated Senator, of Great Ser vice to State. " (Special to The Observer.) GreenviUe, N. C. June, 17. ? Weaw ened by the weight of the years which had brought him 'conntles* honors and the love and veneration of the entire Commonwealth whicri he served with singular ability and wholly unselfishly, Thomas Jordan Jarvls, former Governor of North Carolina, once Minister to Brazil and United States Senator for the unex pired term of Vance, died here at his home tonight at 9 o'clock aged 79 years. For several months he had been in failng health, but during the past few weeks had rallied and so brought hope to his friends that hie life was to be spared perhaps for years to come. A gradual decline, however, further enfeebled him and tonight he became a part of the State's most prideful history. The story of his life Is a succes sion of periods of great usefulness. Born at Jarvlsburg January 18, 1836, the son of Rev. B. H. and Blizabsth Jarvls, he graduated from Randolph Macon College in 1860, joined the Army of the Confederacy in 1861 as a priveate and fought his way to the rank of a captain, and .stayed at the front until his right arm was shat tered by a bullet in 1864 and he was forced to leave the service. He was a member of the State Constitutional Conventions of 1865 "and 1876, early gaining the conft dehce of those wfep were regenera ting the Commonwealth. He was ad mitted to the bar In 1868 and at once began the practice- of his pro fession. In 1868 and 1872 he was presidential elector. December 23, 1874>Jie was mar ried to Miss Mary Woodson. He be came a member of the General As sembly and served throughout the terms of 1868-69 and 1870-71 and during the last term was Speaker of the House. Elected Lieutenant Gov ernor in 1877 he became Governor when Governor Vance was elected to the Senate in 1879. He Was elected Governor for the next term and served until 1885. Prom 1885 until 1889 he was Minister to Brazil. In 1894 he was chosen at Vance's death to' fill the unexpired term, and so was senator for a year. In 1896 he was delegate at large to the Demo cratic National Convention. Since that time he had retired from office, but not from public life. During the last 20 years his chief interest has been the cause of edu cation.Quitely, as he did all things, he set to work for the East Carolina Teachers Training School at Green ville, a splendid institution that now has an enrollment of over 300 and would have more If there were ade quate facilities, and more to him than to any one else Is due fts suc cess.. Before the faculty and students, who in January last helped him celebrate the anniversary of his birth, he gave expression to some of his hopes for the advancemnt of his State and said that education was the cause closest his heart. Mrs. JarvlB, alone of all the for mer Governor's family, survives him. While the details have not been com pleted the funeral will be held here Sunday. Mncon-West.

Frank's deaths sentence for the mur der oC Mary Phagan was commuted to l!fe Imprisonment today by Gov ernor Slaton. The governor's decision was .an nounced barely more than twenty four hours before time set for Frank's execution and after he had been taken from the Fulton county Jail to the state farm at BennettsvUle. The cxcitement of the crowds sub sided, as the day went on. A mass meeting was held. It was estimated that the crowd numbered 2,500. Aa early as 8:30 o'clock this morally ex tra policemen patrolled the streets. By 10 o'clock the entire force was on duty; and at 11 o'clock all near beer saloons wore ordered closed. Only a small part of the crowd were busi ness and professional ir en. * Governor Slaton issued a statement of approximately" fifteen thousand words explaining his action. All Georlga is in turmoil tonight at the news that Governor Slaton has commuted the sentence of Leo M. Finnic to life imprisonment. There is llttleNtonht that the first wave of feeling Will have quieted down by to morrow morning. The great restless crowd which has paced the streets of Atlanta through out the day has swollen to an army estimated at S,000. After listening to the statement of the governor, they commenced marching to his- home which lies six miles outside af th? ntty. | Cries of "we want John M. Slaton, Georgia's traitor governor," were sounded constantly by the mob. At last reports cney had advanced nearly two miles in the direction of the gov ernor's home. Mounted policemen arc accompanying the crowd. Should the crowd persist In marching towards the governor's home, it is not be lieved violence will result. Governor Slaton has not ventured from his home today. * In Marietta this afternoon the gov ernor-was burned in efflgy. A careful reading of the governor's statement by the igore intelligent people has done much to allay the storm that, n as sure to rise the mo m?:ut it came cut. It wis considered one of tfie mort remarkable docu ments published recently. Public men everywhere commend his wisdom. Frank began his life sentence today at the state farm as convict 963. He donned the prison garb, and tomorrow will commence work. About noon a crowd estimated at 2,500 gathered on the capital grounds and listened to several speakers. A committee of five were selected to visit the jail. They reported that Frank was ~not there. Then the sheriff assured the crowd that he "hall taken the man to prison.

JAB VIS' DEATH RECALLS VISIT HEBE. Was a Speaker at the State Reunion of Veterans of tlie Confederacy Five _ Years Ago, " Ex-Governor Thomas J. Jarvis, who died last night at his home in Greenville, N. C., had many admir ers in Charlotte. At the reunion of North Carolina Division of United Confederate Veterans held in this city five years ago, Governor Jarvis made one of the most notable speech es of the occasion in the Academy of Music and was given an ovation. Tall, ~ stately, squareshouldered, erect, with an intellectual and finely featured face, and with gray hair which added dignity end with a dis abled arm which added the crowning touch of nobility, he was a striking figtffe as he stood on the Academy stage an daddressed his former com rades. His most effective utterance was his relation of how when he went to Brazil as the United States Min ister and he was presented io a high official. "Ah," exclaimed the Brazilian. "Yes, your Excellency," replied Sen ator Jarvis. "You fought for the Union of course." "No," replied the North Carolin ian, "I fought for the Confederacy,' "Then God bless you !" exclaimed the Brazilian* > with tears starting as he stepped ^forward and seized the hand of the minister with a warm and vigorous clasp. You fought with General Lee. To tho Brazilian, who had watched from afar the titantic struggle* be tween the States and who had learn ed to revere the character of the South's brilliant leader that) could be no prouder distinction than to have served -under' him, for the "Lost Cause." One of he most recent of his pub lic addresses was tfrat made just two years ago at the meeting of he North Carolina Bar Association in Ash evil le, Despite his age, he was a graceful a^nd fluent speaker and charmed his hearers with his retrospect of what North Carolina had been within ths scope of his recollectior, the strides the State had taken, mentally and materially, and his prophecy of what the future yet held in store, Though he held his strength, in wise reserve, conscious of he battle ahead, even then, so recently as two years ago, there was a fire and eloquence in Ills speech that many a younger man might envy. ? Charlotte Observer. Special Sermon Series Begin at Baptist Church. "The Great Physician" is the general theme of a series of six special sermons which the pastor, Walter M. Gilmore, will preach for six successive Sunday nights, begin ning Sunday night with the special "theme, ."Spiritual Prophylaxis," in other words, the prevention of spiritual diseases. The five themes that will follow will be: "Spiritual Surgery," "Spiritual Antisepis," Spir itual Anesthesia," "Spiritual Diseases, and "Spiritual Medicine." The aim of the pastor is to draw -pome striking spiritual analogies and practical and helpful lessons from the realm of mcdical science, and inci dentally to give some valuable sug gestions as to maintaining the health of the body and mind, and as to im proving health conditions in our town. ?The sermons will all be about twenty minutes in length. The sermon for Sunday morning will be, "A Better Brand." The pas tor will filll lii^ regular monthly ap pointment at Ransdall's Chapel Sun day 3 p. m. Sunday school at 9:45 a. m. A special request is mac^e. of all the young p2op'.e of the church, whether members of the B. Y. P. U. organiza tion or not, to atttend the meeting Moday .night, wjijch will be in charge | of Miss Pauline Smith. There is a reason. , The Canning Industry. We are requested to state that the canning demonstration that was to have been held on the courthouse square on next Saturday has been postponed. There is, however, an exhibit on dis play at the Hardware Co., which will remain for ten days, that will be of much interest to our people. This I exhibit is made up of canned goods sent from this county to the Pan American Exposition at Los Angales, to an Exposition in' South Carolina and to a competive display at. the Columbia University, of New York. This work is becoming of great magnitude all over the South and our people should take time to take an interest in the great work, which is proving to be of such commercial value. Breaks Window. The plate glass window in front of P. S. & K. K. Allen's store was broken on Monday night by some unknown person. It was the smaller glass next to the door and there is conflicting opinions as to whether ft was a rock ~or~ar pistol that did the work. This Is the second time the front glass to this store has been broken in about 12 months. Aside from breaking a small hole In the glass and cracking same no damage was done. ? >? Returns From Bank Convention. Messrs. F. B. McKinne and F. N. Egerton returned the past week from the Bankers Convention at Wrlghts ville very much pleased with the meeting and its results. Mr. McKinne informs us that the details" of the Federal Reserve banking system that are now being worked out arc nothing short of wonderful and will bring ?a]g)ut financial conditions that were never _ dreamed of. He says we can say good bye to panics forever to come What wlil in all probability be a big piece of financial legislation is the suggestion ofThe retiring President In respect to the Land Bank. This idea is to accommodate loans on fdrm lands, for long periods at small cost. The idea is far reaching and will no doubt be taken up as. one of the tasks of the convention's year's work. In all they declare it dne of the most enjoyable and profitable meetings of its kind they have ever attended. Dry Argument (fane.,, , Now comes the psychopathetlc lab oratory of the Chicago Municipal Court, speaking through Chief Justice Harry Olson to the mayors of New York sstate at Troy, N. Y., and ox plodes the favorite "dry" argument that drinking alcoholic liquorB exces sively causes insanity. On the con trary* the laboratory sharks claim, a man has to be crazy before he will drink to excess. "The laboratory has. examined hundreds of chronic alcohol ics," Juge Olson said, "and we have yet to find the first c?.se where there was not at least a psychopathic constitu tion, epilepsy dementia praecox manic depressive insanity, or feeble mlndcd ness as the basis, with the exception of a few cases where there was a phy sical basis, such ^s diabetes or tuber culosis, and the man was whipping up his flagging energy with alcoholic stimulants." Judge Olson claims the laboratory's investigations provo that the cause of excessive drinking will have to be removed before we can cure drunkards. He said the State of Illinois spends 28.1 percent of its total expenditures for charitable ins titutions, of which the' mental ner vous and insane group make up 21.8 percent. ? ? - Mrs. Collie Entertain*.
