BETTER PASSENGER SERVICE.
We have, on one or two cocas
ions already, called our readers'
attention to the need of a double
daily passenger service on the
Altantic Coast Line between El
rod and Fayetteville. A tietitinn
has been drawn with this change
in view and will be presented U
the State Corporation Commis
sion. The petition sets forth the
great public necessity for the
establishment of such service;
that if it were done people from
Fayetteville could spend the day
in any point east of Pembroke on
the Seaboard Air Line and return
to Fayetteville the same night,
whereas now it takes a day and
two nights.
Messrs-Mclntyre & Lawrence
have left a copy of the petition
at The Robeson ian office and all
who are interested in securing
the better service can call here
and sign the petition. It is de
sirable to get the matter ready
as soon a the commission can
hear it.
A young man of Wilmington
insulted some ladies at Wrights
ville Beach a few days ago while
they were surf bathing. He was
Hailed ink court and sentenced
to duty on the chain gang. It is
sasid that several lawyers refused
to appear in his behalf. If it had
been in their power to kept him
from receiving his just desert
they deserve credit for refusing
him their professional services.
John Willis, of Glasgow, Mon
tanna, an old-time friend of
President Roosevelt, declined to
to dine with the latter at the
White House table a few days
ago because he had left his dress
suit at home. He evidently had
not seen the President's menu
card or he would not have let a
little thing like that stand in his
way.
Much more about the meat and
food we've been eating and the
milk we've been drinking we'll
need an appetizer to eat or drink
anything.
Worse Still.
Monroe Journal.
"I see," said an old student of
Rutherford College who lives
here, "that they say our friend,
Prof. A. T. Abernethy, is crazy
and they have sent 4iin to an
asylum. He may be crazy, but
his marrying record began years
ago, and the four wives that he
is charged with having in the
Northern cities where he was ar
restee! as a bigamist, are not all
of his accomplishments in this
line. Years ago he married a
young school girl who was sent
to his father's school. The i;irl
was very young and didn't want
to marry him at all. But he de
dared that if she didn't he cer
tainly would kill himself and his
blood would be on her head. She
still refused, and he got some
bottles of laudanum and made a
great show of taking the stuff,
falling dead in a most tragic
style out at the wood pile with
the empty bottles beside him
The people came and applied all
kinds of restoratives and after
hard .work brought him to. for
the scamp hadn't taken a drop of
it. But the young girl was thoi
oughly frightened and became
convinced that she would have to
marry the young professor in
order to keep him in the world
or be responsible for his death
They were married, but parted
in a few weeks. This wife seems
not to have been taken in the
score when Abernethy was ar
rested in Philadelphia."
THE PUKE FOOD BILL.
Senate and House Conferee
Agree on One Misdemeanor to
Manufacture Adulterated or
Mlspranded Articles.
WasMiiKton Dispatch, 37th. ,
The pure food bill was agreed
upon by the conferees for the
Senate and House today and was
reported to the Senate just before
adjournment.
The bill makes it a inisdemanor
for anv person, to manufacture,
sell or offer for sale any article
of food, drues. medicines or hq
uorsj- which is adulterated or
misbranded, or which contains
anv noisonous or deleterious sub
stance. ' It prescribes for each
offense a fine not to exceed SfoW,
one year's imprisonment.or both,
within the discretion of the
court, and for each subsequent
offense a tine of not less than
$1,000 or one year's imprison
ment.
Section 2 prohibits the intro
duction or shipment of any article
adulterated or misbranded with
in the meaning of the act under
penalty of not exceeding a line of
$200 for hrst offense and $300, or
one year's imprisonment,or both,
for each subsequent offense,
Concerning shipments to foreign
countries, it is provided that no
article shall be deemed misbran
ded or adulterated when no sub
stance is used in conflict with the
laws of the foreign country for
which it is intended. This
clause, however.docs not exempt
any person from prosecution if
the article is offered for sale lor
domestic use or consumption.
Section 4 provides for examina
funis of foods and drugs in the
Bureau of Chemistry of the De
partment of Agriculture. Own
ers are to le given hearing and if
it is found any provision of tnat
act has been violated, the Secreta
ry of Agriculture is to certify the
fact to the proper United States
district attorney for action.
All the United States district
attorneys are obligated to con
duct prosecutions without delay
for the enforcement of penalties.
The standards for drugs are
thos recognized in the United
States Pharinacopoea, or nation
al formulary. Confectionery is
held adulterated if it contains
any ingredient or coloring matter
deleterious or detrimental to
health. Foods are held adulterat
ed if containing any substances
reducing, lowering or injurious
ly affecting its quality or
strength; when any substituted
wholly or in part for the article;
when any valuable constituent
has been abstracted;when mixed,
colored, powdered, coated, or
stained to conceal damage or in
feriority or any poisonous or del
eterious ingredients added. The
use of preservatives by external
application is permitted when
the directions for the removal of
such preservatives are printed
on the covering of the package.
Food products are declared adul
terated if in whole or in part of a
filthy, decomposed or putrid ani
mal or vegetable substance or of
any portion of an animal unfit
for good, whether manufactured
or not, or if the product of di
seased animal or one that has
died otherwise than by slaugh-J
ter.
The term "misbranded" ap
plies to foods or drugs whose
package or label bears any state
ment, design or device false or
misleading, or if falsely branded
as to place where manufactured
or produced. The term "blend"
is construed to mean a mixture
of like substance and does not ex
clud harmless coloring or flav
oring ingredients. Dealers are
protected against prosecution if
they hold the guaranty of the
concern from whom they pur
chased articles. The act is to
take effect Jan. 1. next.
Tilt Mother's Ward.
News and Observer.
In the handsome nine thousand
dollar infirmary now in process
of erection at Wake Forest Col
lege one ward will be called the
Mother's Ward. In it will be a
beautiful metalic tablet bearing
the names of one hundred moth
ers, each name representing a
ten-dollar gift from husband,
son or brother. The sentiment
prompting these hundred gen
erous givers strikes us as emi
nently beautiful for in no other
channel does the mother heart
find more fitting expression than
in the tender ministry of the sick
room.
And the son or friend of Wake
Forest who puts a name on the
tablet in the Mother's Ward is
building a striking monument to
a loved one to stand through all
the coining years and at the same
time rendering a distinct and
timely service in the erection and
equipment of this much-needed
building. We commend this
movement to all the sons and
friends of Wake Forest among
the fifty thousand readers of the
News and Observer, and trust
that the hundred names will be
secured in a few days. The in
firmary must be ready for use
by the beginning of the next
session.
To Secure Inmluraats. .
BaleltfhTlmei.SHh. .
Messrs. R A. Smith and B P.
Sargeant, representing the North
Carolina Cotton Manufacturers
Association, called on Governor
Glenn this morning and request
ed that he issue a special Commis
sion to T- M- Costello as special
immigration agent to go to En
gland and secure immigrants
suitable for employment in the
cotton mills of the State.
The Governor readily granted
the request, feeling as he said,
that it was his dutv to downatev
er he could for the betterment of
all the interests of the State.
Quite a nartv of immigrants
have already been located with
excellent results by Mr. Costello
at Charlotte. There are other
Charlotte mills and also mills at
Fayetteville, Henrietta, Concord
and various other places which
are to recieve colonies of the lm
migrants Mr. Costello proposes
to bring into the State under tne
special commission just issued to
him by the Governor.

It won't do to make fun of
some of the sayings of the old
darkey- One of them is that
whatever the day of the week the
first day of May falls on, the
same day is Christmas. That is
to say, if May 1st falls on Tues
day, Christmas day is Tuesday.
A man who remembered being
told this by an old darkey looked
it up the other day by examining
almanacs for fifty years back and
found it was true. How many
people ever thought of such a
thing?
