About noon Thursday, at the corner of Water and Fifth streets, an automobile accident came near causing serious injury to Mrs. G. B. Kinlaw and her 12-months-old baby. Mr. and Mrs. Kinlaw had started to their home in Back Swamp and when they got to Water street Mr. Kinlaw turned down that street to make way for Dr. T. C. Johnson, who was coming down Fifth street in his automobile. A wagon loaded with cotton was coming towards them across the iron bridge, and Dr. H. T. Pope was driving down Water street to Fifth. In an ef fort to avoid Dr. Pope, Dr. John son turned his machine a fraction too far toward Mr. Kinlaw's bug gy and the fender of his machine struck one of the rear wheels of the buggy. According to the testimony of disinterested eye witnesses, the automobile was go ing at a slow pace and there would have been no damage but for the fact that Mrs. Kinlaw be came frightened, not knowing, oi course, how serious the collis ion might be, and jumped with her baby. Both received a se vere fall and Mrs. Kinlaw's knees were bruised considerably, but they were not seriously in jured.

To the Editor of The UolK-sonian: Please permit me through the columns of TheRobesonian to an nounce to the Croatan Indians that the Normal school will begin on the first Monday in October, the 4th day. Tne first month will be taught at the old building, af ter which we expect to move in- o the new building at Pembroke. The new Duilding is being: rap idly pushed to completion by the contractor, Mr. W. H. Shooter. The building will cost several hundred dollars more than the State appropriated for the pur pose. The trustees are making- a personal canvass to raise the re quired amount. The normal stands for the best interests of its patrens. The moral and in- ellectual advancement of a race must receive its chief inspiration here, livery friend who is able o contribute to its construction and equipment is invited to help. tninK we can challenge the State to show seven trustees who have given so much valuable ime, free of charge, to advance education among their people as have the trustees ot the Croatan ndian Normal School. Whites and Indians should encourage by substantial aid. Truly, H. L. Edens, Principal. in Rev. V. H. Harney, of Ken tucky, to Hold a Meeting Lumberton. To the F,iliior of The KoWsuuian: The people of Lumberton will have the opportunity to hear one ot Kentucky's noted evanglists. Rev. W. H. Harney, who has been in the evanglistic work for number of years and has had wonderful success in bringing hundreds of souls to Christ, will hold a two-weeks' meeting in the Gospel Tabernacle, beginnie; Oc tober 4th and continuing till the 17th. Mr. Harney is a preacher after the Sam Jones order, fearless in denouncing sin. He has been called the thunder and lightning evangelist, because of his elo quence and power. One never tires of listening to him, for he has one aughting one minute and crying the next. He is a Methodist by profession, but is too broadmind ed for one denomination. He holds up the Bible alone, and so he has had successful meetings in the leading evangelical churches. After you have heard him once you will want to hear him all you can. trust that all Chirstians will feel at home to take a part in this meeting. Rev. F. Weiss.
