RED MEN'S GALA DAY Celebration Yesterday atWrights ville Beach by Cherokee TribeTN6.99I.O.R.M. THE EVENTS ENTERTAINING Tug of War, Sham Battle and Spar ring t Matches Some Features of ;Athletic Contests Music and Dancing Programme. Despite the rain and other unto ward circumstances In connection with the weather, "Red lien's Day" at Wrightsville Beach yesterday under the auspices of Cherokee Tribe No. 9, I. O. R. M., of this city, was pro nounced a suecess In every particular. The rain kept many away and the crowd was not too large for comfort. The best of order was maintained, and all who participated in the exer cises and those who went down as spectators were eminently well pleas ed with the celebration. Headquar ters were established at Lumina and at the Casino, and there the jolly men of the forest gathered, enjoyed their sports and did everything but paint the beach the vermilllon hue which the name of the order might suggest to the unitlated. Large crowds went down on the early afternoon trains of the Consolidated Company before the rain commenced and once there, the elements had no effect on the jollity of the crowds. Perhaps the most spectacular fea ture of the day was the sham battle between a band of Red Men in war paint costume and a detachment of the Wilmington Division, Naval Re serves, it having been impossible for Ithe regulars to come up from Fort Caswell as had been expected. The mimic warfare took place on the beach in front of the pavilion and was quite Interesting as representing the primitive and modern methods of fighting. The Red men are especial ly grateful to Lieut Chase, of the Na val Reserves, for his kindness in al- lowing the Reserves to participate in me anain During the day there was dancing ito the accompaniment of two bands. at LuminVand $t the Casino, and programme of interesting anxtamus. hing athletic tHd, otner exercises were gtren for the entertainment of the vis itors by the Red Men themselves. These events and the prizes in each were as follows: Bag race, silk umbrella given by the C. W. Polvogt Co.,. won by Robert Thompson. Egg race for boys, pocket knife giv en by James Winberg. won by Ben Duncan. Egg race for men, silk parasol giv en by C. W. Polvogt Co., won by J. A. Parker. A ... . . given by "Solomon's Shoe Store, won by George Sperzel, of Philadelphia. Watermelon contest, hat given by J. W. H. Fuchs, won by Mr. Rowan. At night an. interesting feature of the contest was a series of sparring matches between Messrs. James Win berg and George Sperzel. of Philadel phia, and Douglass Yarborough and Ed. Wilson, two well known young colored pugilists. Both events were declared a draw, but the matches af forded new and novel entertainment for a large crowd which lined the ring. Between the colored boxers there were two matches of four rounds each. The affair was in charge of a gen eral committee composed of 'Messrs. A T. Parker, C. H. Huband, W. H. Lane and John Davis, while the chairman of a special committee on music was Mr. D. A Rowan and on athletic sports, Mr. James Winberg. The party returned to the city on the late car last night enthusiastic over the sports of the day. Of Interest Locally. There is local interest in the an nouncement in the Raleigh News and Observer of the marriage of Miss Arra Goodwin and Mr. Pallie Mangum of that city. Mr. Mamtgum is an employe of -the Southern Bell Telephone Com pany , in thai capital lofty and It was he who was largely responsible for the lowering of the hook and ladder record of the .world by the Raleigh company at the late toiirnament here. He was the cflimber who ascended the ladder with such alacrity and won the plaudits of the thousands assembled to witness the feat The News and Ohsenver thus happily gives the groom a , greeting: v ''Having ' broken tba world's record dm hook and ladder con tests, there Is no (better wish for him winning the 'best first prize, a wife. than that their happiness may he In the record breaking class." x NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.

The far mers Institute for Duplin county, con ducted by Dr. Tait Butler, of Raleigh, and Mr. T. B. Parker, of Hillsboro, was held here today with a fair repre sentation of the best farmers of the county in attendance. The institute was held in the graded school building and was opened at 10:30 A. M. by Dr. Butler, who discussed at length the subject of crop rotation, stressing the importance of the rotation of crops as a means of improving the soil. Dr. Butler made the assertion that crop rotation is the basis of all soil im provement His address contained much food for thought for the farmers J and elicited many questions from in attempting to secure a profitable plan of rotation of crops. Mr. Parker followed Dr. Butler with an address on legumes, urging the cul tivation of the leguminous crops, both because of their value as feed crops and because of their value in improv ing the soil. At the close of Mr. Par ker's address the institute adjourned for dinner, reassembling at 2 o'clock, when Dr. Butler spoke to the growers, giving them some .rules to observe in selecting different kinds of stock, dwelling particularly upon the rules for selecting dairy and beef cattle. Mr. Parker closed the Institute with an address on corn culture, urging the farmers to ask questions and join free ly in the discussion, which they did with much profit to themselves. Many farmers in attendance upon the insti tute expressed themselves as much pleased with the discussions of the day, and as determined to adopt some new methods in their farming the coming year. Mr. W. W. Kitchin was here, and de livered an address at the opera house after the close of the farmers' insti tute. Mr. Kitchin discussed the rail roads, their attitude toward the peo ple ; the American Tobacco XJompany and other trusts. He scored the rail roads for attempting to ignore the re cent rate law, and accused the rail- for Governor. Mr. Kitchin expressed himself as confident of securing the nomination for Governor at the com- ing Democratic convention, basing his hope upon what he chose to call his service to the people. .

The end cam3( at wed boiipnur springs, va., I where he has been with Mrs. Marshal j and little daughter for the past four weeks m nope of regaining nis neaitin, which had been failing rapidly for some time. He was a son of Rev. M. M. Marshall, D. D., and was 33 years of age. The (remains will Ibe- brought to RiaHeigh to-morrow and the funeral announcement will be imade later. The interment will be in the family plot in Oakwood cemetery. Speaking of his trip to New York the Governor expresses himself as jweH pleased with the progess made and the showing for the State in the "finding of the facts." He says, too, that no matter what the result may. be as to the application of the act to rail roads generally, under the terms of the North Carolina road to the South ern! it (must be observed on the North Carolina road. He threatens; too, to advocate the vitiation of the lease the State has given the Southern on the North Carolina road if the "company continues to harrass the Sltafca with ailH matter of litigation. The Governor says he explained his attitude in this matter clearly to General- Counsel Thorn, of the Southern, in the confer ence! he had witfoi that official in New York. 9neakiinr of itihis rmftT(-nfe th Governor says: "I submitted two prop- ositions to Mr. Thom: 1. Avoid unnec- essary costs by first taking up the leg al propositions involved, and let the Supreme. Court of the United States pass on these, so there can be light un der which to act in further litigation. 2. Stop the Southern's suit and test the rate fairly, and if found too low, ap peal to the fairness of the people of the State to grant relief. Concerning the possibility of vitiat ing the case of the North Carolina road, the Governor said: "Jf the suit continues, ma matter what the result, under vthe lease of the North Carolina road to the Southern, the 2 1:4 cent rate must apply on that road. And If the Bourthtetrn continues to harrass the State (with litigation . or causes others to do so, it may vitiate the lease entirely." ; The Governor says reports of in terviews with him in New York mis re presented him itn saying he favored an even lower rate than 2 1-4 cents.' He says the fact is that he favored a . 2 1-2 cent rate during "the Legisla ture :but was now: convinced that the j wmpames vau sutua a oepi rate. companies can stand a JZ 1-4 cent rate. HYING IN MORTAL DREAD Queer Hallucination of Unfortunate Colored Woman Placed in Jail Yesterday by County Officers. Mentally Unbalanced. Laboring under the straJruge halluici natiom' that she was fcedng pursued by imaginary persons who sought to take tas.tr life or do her great bodily harm, Mamie Potter, a middle-aged heigress living at 'Nta. 6 North Twelfth street, was taken . f rojmi heri home where she had foarricaded herself yes tertday mOaming 'by (Special Deputy Sheriff W.

From the kidica tijoms about the house, the offloars are constrained to .believe that in her ter ror .the womani has ibeeai closely shut tup in: the house for several days with out food or water. The Potter woman had been miss ing from the neighborhood for several days, and those in the vicinity know- ling her condition mentally were satis- " "XT. Z "t u house that the woman had either wan- dered off or had shut herself in as the result of . the queer hallucination with which she was suffering. The case was reported to Chief of Police Williams, but as all matters of the kind are in charge of the " county Chief Williams passed the report on to Sher iff Cowan, who sent the officers nam ed to investigate the report and see what could be done for the unfortu nate creature. They proceeded to the house and finding it closely shut up, they knocked several times for ad mittance. This was not gained, but a noise heard on the inside convinced the men that there was some one within. They forced an entrance final ly and found the poor woman crouch ed in one corner with fear written upon every feature. They gave her what assurance her diseased mind could comprehend and asked her to go with them, which she did, offering no resistance, but being apparently in mortal dread of something she knew not what. -She was made as comfort able as possible in jail and was given food and drink, after which she seem ed somewhat refreshed. A commis sion of lunacy will today inquire into the case and probably recommend that she be taken at the hospital for col ored nsane at Goldsboro. Excursion This Evening.

The ponies became frightened at the too close approach of a street car which was not observed toy Mr. Heide and the : trap was cmla into the sidtaj of the curb ing of the street with the result that the vehicle was demolished and Mr. Heide was dragged some distance in an effort to (hold the ponies. Two lit tle girls-in tht5( trap with Mr. Heide managed to get out of' the vehicle without toeing injured. Mr. Heide left his office at the usual hour yesterday- afternoon and went to his home, 602 Orange street, to take his accusftomed drive behind the two fine little ponies which are the admiration of ajl who have seen them on the streets. A mdiece's little daugh- ' ter and another little girl about the, -same age were taketeu into the trap, Mr." Heide never being happier than when hia is giving pleasure to: some one else, and they had proceeded down Sixth street, nearly as far as Princess when Mr. Heide heard the approach of a train of sulburban cars. The pomdea wertei reined ami and stopped until the cars had passed. Thinking the. way clear, Mr. Heide then started : to cross the track and (before' he knew what had happened another -car v was upon him almost This, was city -car? No. 12, in charge of Motorman; J. IT.1' Mairritt and Conductor J. T. Edgerv . totm. The car ran very close to the trap and witnesses' differ as to wheth- er or not the wheel of the vehicle was struck. At any rate the escape was so narrow that the pontes became frightened and dashed off to one side,, running the trap into the curbing and - turning it oyer, the children escaping ! unhhirt Mr. Heide endeavored to hold : t0!n to ine reins or mis spngintly little ponies and was dragged for some dis tance om the hard anacadam, finally getting the animals under control. It was not, however, until he had re ceived a (very had soar on the fore head a had contusion of the left eye, a out dm the eft-arm about the elbow and bruises atL over the body. His clothing was almost tern from his body id the terrible experience through which he passed in a short length of time. The motorman and conduicfbcir on the car and several pas sengers, including Mr. J. Franik Jar man, the druggist, went to Mr. Heide's assistance and he was helped into the residence of Mrs. Price, on the corner from where the hospital ambulance was callred. Mr. Heide, however, pre- ferred bis own physician and Dr. J. T. Schonwald was suammoned. Dr. tSChonwald gave the patient all neces sary relief that was possible tempor arily and Mr. Heide was sent to his home where he was reported as rest ing very well last night He is badly bruised and broken, however, and will be laid up for several days. Dr.. iSichonjwald continues to attend. him. While he was toeing dragged on the street. Mr. Heide lost his watch and eyeglasses tout the watch was subse quently recovered. The glasses have not toeen ! (found. Friends of Mr. Heide hope that Ms injuries will not develop as seriously as they may seem atod that he may. be out again in a few days.
