Raleigh. A special from Charlotte states that Walter S. Pharr, one of the North Carolina delegates to the National Drainage Congress held in New Orleans has returned. He says the movement is to be one of the most comprehensive in scope and serious in purpose that is now sweeping the country and is thoroughly convinced that if the plans of the Congress are carried out, the agricultural interests of the South will receive immense ad vantages. "The Congress instructed its execu tive committee and officers to pro ceed to Washington at once," said Mr. Pharr, '-for the purpose of peti tioning the government for an appro priation of 51,000,000 for land decla mation. This committee will be in Washington while the river and har bor bill is being discussed by the Senate.. It will ask that the scientific services of the government, the engi neering corps of the army and a hoard of engineers and constructors to be named by the president to co operate with a view of regulating riv ers for the purpose of navigation, irri gation, swamp land, reclamation and the prevention of soil erosion and waste."

As has been stated, the claim that Elizabeth City, South Mills and this section make is that to open the Albemarle & Chesapeake canal as a free government waterway will practically confiscate the property of the Dismal Swamp canal, which nat urally as a toll canal, would cease to receive patronage. As a result, Elizabeth City and other points here would immediately feel the effects and great loss of business and depre ciation of property would be the out come. As a last resort this section goes before the Senate committee and asks that the Dismal Swamp, at least, be kept open by the government and that this great fertile, prospering sec tion be not hampered and thrown back by the practical confiscation of private property and that vessels be given the choice of passing through free of cost, either the Dismal Swamp or Albemarle & Chesapeake canal.

Heroism Asserts Itself. The ship had now listed to.a terrible angle. Men, in the throes of panic, attempted to reach the boats and were pushed back. And in that moment the heroism of hundreds asserted it self. It was the passengers who push ed back these panic-stricken few and not the sailors. Of the individual deeds of heroism only a few have as yet been. told. But those few are the fore-runners of thousands. Soon most of the boats had been lowered and still a full realizing sense of the extent of the disaster had not dawned upon all that mass of men. But, finally, all' the boats had been lowered. Then, the sailors, seeing wo men standing and running about, cried : "All women to the lower deck!" There began a rush to the lower deck, and there it was that the nearest semblance to a panic began.

Bust of Governor John M. Morehead. The North Carolina historical com mission has set in its place, in the ro tunda of the state capitol, the bust of Gov. John M. Morehead. This bust was presented to the historical com mission by Mr. John M. Morehead and Mr. Lindsay Patterson, Governor uoreneaas grandsons. It is the fourth bust to be placed in the ro tunda of the capitol and fill3 the last of the niches on the lower floor intended for that purpose. The others are bust of Governors W. A.

The exercises in connection with the unveiling of the Morehead bust will be held at an early date. men and with automobiles started on the hunt of the noted outlaw. On arriving near the scene they were met by some boys who told them that they had seen the man and talked to him and that he had told them that he had saved ten miles by going straight across the mountain. This further confirmed the belief that it was Allen Vacine Points For National Ghard. At the headqdarters of the North Carolina national guard at Raleigh there has been received a consign ment of 1,200 typhoid vacine points for vaccinating members of the guard this summer. There were 1,100 pointe received last summer and used with most satisfactory results. The new consignment of points will be distrib uted as indications come in from the companies in various quarters of the state as to the number of men who win likely be willing to take the treatment. A Large Sum For Good Roads. '. Newton and Hickory townships now have at their disposal $50,000 each for good roads, and within the next two years these two large sections of the county will have good roads from end to end. The top-soil type is the kind of road favored. The Newton township road commissioners have been paying visits to Cleveland and Iredell counties in search of informa tion and steps will be taken to secure equipment, an engineer, etc., to begin the work. It is estimated that some thing like 100 miles of good roads will be built in the two townships this summer. Delegate to Sociological Congress. Dr. W. W.

The people of the Carpenter school district, in Cedar Fork township, still believe in public education, and are willing to purchase it at the price of special taxation for schools. Because of some dissatisfaction a petition was presented to the board of education for an election on the repeal of the special tax. The board granted the election, and it was held several days ago, with, the result that the special tax has, a second time, been endorsed by the people of that district.

The ocean was calm as a mill-pond when the Titanic crushed into the ice berg. It was a quarter of an hour be fore midnight. Most of the passengers were in their cabins. Then came the shock of collision not so violent a crash as had been de picted, for there were many who were not even awakened by it but enough to disquiet all who felt it. There was a general and orderly exodus to the decks. Sailors were scurrying hither and thither crying: "NOTHING TO BE AFRAID OF! THERE'S NO DANGER!" Some of the passengers even return ed to their rooms and prepared to re tire. But gradually the cessation of the engines' vibration caused uneasi ness and the groups on the decks grew greater and greater. Still the sailors announced that there was nothing to be feared. Then, with perceptible suddenness, the eh'p began to list. "All passengers on deck with life belts," was shouted. Then lor the first time the gravity of the situation dawn ed upon the passengers. The sailors, working silently and without excitement, yet fast as their hands could move, removed the tar paulins from the lifeboats and terse ly, without excitement came the or der, repeated upon every side: Women and children in the life boats!" The sailors helped the nearest wo men and children into the boats. And it was the beginning of excitement other sailors began to lower the boats. Men Laughed as Boats Filled. Thus far the men, standing idly by, failing entirely to grasp the signifi cance of the moment, had helped the sailors. Many of the passengers re port that the men were laughing. We'll be safer here on the ship than in that cockle-shell!" one man cried to his wife as she was helped over the rail. But the Titanic settled deeper in the ocean and it was difficult for the men to remain on their feet. Then it was that the appalling nature of it dawned upon those men. And then, also it was, that the officers of the ship drew their revolvers. "Stand back!" they cried. "Only women and children go into the boats." Some of the men leaned against the rail and looked dow,n over the tower ing sides of the ship. Others slowly paced the deck as if they were wait ing. Three Steerage Men Shot. The ship sank lower and lower. Three revolver shots were heard. Three passengers in the steerage had attempted to force their way past the sailors and had been ruthlessly shot down. By this time the passengers on the deck who remained in possession of their faculties observed the huge masses of ice which the Titanic had he women were seized by sailors and deliberately thrown over the rail into he boats. The weaker men, by scores, began o jump overboard. The lifeboats be- san to draw away from the ship. As they drew away those who were floating among the cakes of ice in the sea cried aloud piteously for help. Those who could seized the sides of the lifeboats. In many cases they were pulled aboard. One Lifeboat Capsizes. In many cases the sailors who man ned the boats rowed deliberately on, heedless of all supplications, for their boats were full. One boat was observ ed to overturn. What capsized it is not yet known probably a number of men in the sea struggling to board her. -i . oeverai more pistol snots were heard on board the ship. And then, suddenly, above the murmur of the sea and the crunching of the ice floes there rose a steadily increasing cry from the doomed ship a cry in which hundreds upon hundreds of voices mingled. Among the innumerable deeds of heroism of that hour there -was one attested by many witnesses. The sail ors attempted to null Mrs. Isador Straus from her husband's side, but she clung to his arm, smiling. She had decided to remain with him She sank with him. Women Row Lifeboat. In the hurry of embarking, one of the lifeboats had been lowered without a single sailor in it. Three men had been picked up by this boat, but the women were rowing. And the women between the thwarts were screaming to their loved ones in agony. Then, suddenly, above all the wail ing of that desolate scene there arose the strains of the ship's orchestra playing "Nearer, My God, to Thee!" And for the first time those in the lifeboats realized that those who were left behind knew that they were doom ed. A few voices rose in accompani ment to the melody. The chorus swell ed louder and louder. The lights sunk lower' and lower. The lifeboats were pulling from the scene as fast as they could. But while they were still within sight of the ship the lights began to go out with start ling swiftness. The screams and shouts of those on board still resounded through the air. The last light went out and the music ceased. The peerless Titanic had sunk be neath the waves. numbering 745. All the figures that had drifted in through the air were wrong, and when the truth came it was merely to increase the terrible roll to 1595. a, - j. x iic sctues mat were . enacted on the Cunard Pier, and outside as the survivors were being hurried away to homes and hotels, will live a lifetime in the memory of those who wit nessed them. Men in hysterics, women fainting, ana children almost crushed -in the arms of those welcoming them, were the rule, not the exception. Men fell down to kiss the knees of their re turning womenfolk. Women shriek ed, wept, dashed in madness from one group of friends to another, and final ly collapsed in the arms of those who had come to meet them. . u The Scenes Repeated. Outside, as they were led or carried iu waning auiomoDiies, tne same scenes were repeated. The sight of a street seemed to fill some of the re turned ones with awe, to others it was cause for emotional joy that could only find relief in extravagant ecstasy. lhe precautions taken for the pro tection of the survivors proved en tirely adequate, and, fortunately, all the ambulances and relief corps that had been gathered at the pier were not necessary. The number of badly injured on the Carpathia was not nearly as large as had been imagined, and cases re quiring' hospital relief were merciful ly few. It was a joyous occasion for many a terrible day for some. To the last there had been hope in many breasts that their loved ones would . be aboard and at the last those hopes were blasted with the icy breath of the news the living brought. How the Titanic sank, what hap pened when she sank, was told in as many different ways as there were people to tell it. But they agreed on one thing that Capt. Smith and his officers showed the greatest bravery throughout the terrible ordeal, and that, except in isolated cases the men aboard, from the saloon to the steer age, showed a heroism worthy of the sea. When the Ship Went Down. Men were playing cards in the; smoking room when the great ship struck the iceberg whose propinquity was well known to all aboard, for a bulletin of it had been posted in the saloon, and when the ship went down, most accounts agree, the band was playing "Nearer, My God. to Thee," while the lifeboats were pulling away. But it was difficult to get a connect ed story from any survivor. Mrs. John Jacob Astor, outwardly none the worse for her awful experi ence, was among the first to be whisk ed away to her- home. Her stepson, Vincent Astor, and Craig Biddle had come to meet her and the greeting be tween them was affecting. She went direct to the home of her father, Wil liam H. Force, but stayed there only a few moments ed by the shock of the collision, and went on deck. There was no great ex citement, and persons were coming out of their rooms and asking what had happened. Wouldn't Leave Brother. "Suddenly from the bridge or from some of the officers came the cry, 'Ladies first.' This was the first inn ling that we had that the ship was in danger. We went back to the state rooms and dressed. Then came the horrifying order that women must leave their husbands and brothers and that no man was to go in the lifeboats. "I refused to leave my brother, and remained on deck until the next to the last boat was leaving. They looked around and saw that I was the only woman. I told them that I would not go without my brother and then they took him also. .Thus I saved my bro ther. We left the ship about twenty-five minutes before it sank. She sank at about 1:50 o'clock Monday morning. At 6 o slock the same morning the Carpathia put in an appearance and wj were picked up. 'We were proba bly one mile away from the ship when she went down, and the steward that had given me the first warning that the ship- might sink went down with all the others. i Lights Burning, Band Playing. As we left the ship it was the most vlrn .! a n . H I. : 111. x . l! i w . icuiiuuuis nuu LI llliaUL 6Igat I uau ever witnessed on the water. All the lights were burning and the band was playing as if at a concert." Mrs. Schabert was asked in regard to a rumor that Major Butt, military aide to President Taft, had shot eight men to keep them from upsetting life boats by crowding into them. Mrs. Schabert answered that she was unable to either confirm or deny this. She said she had seen no such thing, but that the confusion was such she might not have seen it, even if it had happened. , . Col. Astor Died a Brave Man. TITANIC VICTIMS BEING RECOVERED SIXTY-FOUR BODIES PICKED UP NEAR THE SCENE OF THE DISASTER. HAVE IDENTIFIED MANY THRILLING ACCOUNTS OF HEROISM AND SACRIFICE BY TITANIC SURVIVORS. Tales of horror were told by the survivors of the Titanic wreck when they landed from the steamship Car pathia. v Men and women relater1 in detail how the big ship had crushed against the iceberg, but how the jar was so slight that no one was excited until the ship's officers and crew began low ering the lifeboats and rafts and or dering passengers into them. The Titanic's boilers exploded when water rushed in upon them, and it was the opinion of some of the survivors Dramatic stories of the death oi Colonel Astor were told on the pier by survivors. "Mrs. Astor was sent away in tha tenth boat," said John Kuhle, of Ne braska. "Just as she was about to be placed within the boat. Colonel Astor embraced her. Helped to Force Wife Into Boat. "Astor then freed himself from hii wife's embrace and, after helping to force her into the boat, turned away and stood upon the deck." Colonel Archibald Gracie, U. S. A., declared Colonel Astor's conduct was deserving of the highest praise Col onel Astor, said Gracie, devoted all his energies to saving his young bride, who was in delieate health. "Colonel Astor helped us in our ef forts to get her in the boat," said Colonel Gracie. "I lifted her into the boat. Colonel Astor then inquired the number of the boat which was being lowered and turned to the work of clearing the other boats and in reas suring the frightened and nervous women." Col. Astor Joined Mr. and Mrs. Straus. "John Jacob Astor escorted his wife to one of the lifeboats, kissed her quietly and then went up to deck B and joined Mr and Mrs. Isador Straus." said Robert W. Daniel, of Philadelphia "I was almost alongside of them, but not close enough to dis tingui3h anything they said to each other. When the water reached deck B, I jumped into the sea. Neither colonel Astor nor Mr. and Mrs. dt-.'aus made any effort to save themselves. iney seemed to realize tnat -t was hopeless. I am convinced that Col onel Astor could have saved himself had he jumped into the water. "None of us were worried after the crash.

Most graphic was the story told by Mrs. Paul Schabert, of Derby, Conn. After telling of how Mr. and Mrs. Isa dor Straus perished together, because Mrs. Straus would not leave her hus band, Mrs. Schabert said 'It was a terrible experience, but worth going through. I was awaken- self included, went to bed. I did not rise from my bed until I hward ; the sound of pistol shots. Then I pullod on a bathrobe and went out on deck. Some of the officers nearest me were shooting into the air for the purpose, I suppose, of awakening all the pas sengers who had retired.

Clubmen Wonder Whether He Was Forced Into Boat by Employes. London. The only comment made by the London papers on the escape of J. Bruce Ismay, appears in , the Daily Herald, the new labor paper. One of the chief subjects of discus sion in the hotels and clubs is Mr. Is may's escape, there being much won der as to whether lie was forced into a boat with the women and children by his employes. , . BLAMES BRITISH OFFICIALS. Inadequacy of Lifeboats on Titanic Stupid and Criminal. Landon. Allan H. Burgoyne, M. P., editor of the Naval Annual, says: Amid a horde of horrors, attendent on the Titanic disaster, one vital, central fact emerges. This fact is nothing less than the woeful inadequacy of lifeboat accommodations, due to the ridiculously antiquated regulations laid down by the British Board of Trade. New York. Two wireless messages' addressed to J. Bruce lamay, president of the International Mercantile Marine Company, were received at the offices of the White Star line from the cable ship Mackay-Bennett via Cape Race, one of which reported that the steam ship Rhein had sighted bodies near the scene of the Titanic wreck. The first message, which was dated April 20 reads: "Steamer Rhein reports passing wreckage and bodies 42.1 north 49.13 west; eight miles west of three big iceburgs. Now making for that posi tion. Expect to arrive 8 o'clock to night. (Signed) "MACKAY-BENNETT." The second reads: "Received further information from the steamer Bremen, and arrive on ground at 8 o'clock p. m. Start on operations tomorrow. Have been con siderably delayed in passage by dense fog. (Sgned) "MACKAY-BENNETT." After reading the two messages Mr. -Ismay said: "The cable ship Mackay-Bennett has been chartered by the White Star line and ordered to proceed to the scene of the disaster and to do all she could to recover bodies and glean all infor mation possible. "Every effort will be made to iden tify bodies recovered and any news will be sent through immediately by wireless. In addition to any such messages as these, the Mackay-Bennett will make a report of its activi ties each morning by wireless and such reports will be made public by the officers of the White Star line. "The cable ship has orders to re main on the scene of the wreck for at least a week, but, should a large number of bodies be recovered by that time, she will return to Halifax with them. The search for bodies will not be abandoned until not a vistage of hope remains for any more recov eries. r 'The Mackay-Bennett will not maka any soundings, as they would not serve any useful purpose because the depth where the Titanic sank is more than 2,000 fathoms." J. Bruce Ismay and P. A. S. Frank lin, managing director and vice presi dent, respectively, of the White Star line, left New York for Washington, where they appeared before the Sen ate investigating committee. William E. Carter Defends Ismay. Philadelphia. William E. Carter, when shown the Ismay statement, cor roborated the White Star Line official Mr. Carter said: "The statements which have been made by many per sons regarding Mr. Ismay's conduct are an injustice to him. While the lifeboat containing myself and Ismay was moving away from the Titanic, Ismay rowed with two seamen and myself until we sighted the Carpathia, "The women that were in the boat were from, the steerage with their children. I guess there were about forty of them. Mr. Ismay and my self and several of the officers walk ed up and down the deck crying,' 'Are there any more women here?' We called for several minutes and got no answer. One of the officers then declared that if we wanted to, we coul-1 get into the boat if we took the place of seamen. He gave us this preference because we were among the first-class passengers. "Mr. Ismay called again and after we got no reply, we got into the life boat. We took the oars and roweti with the two seamen. We w .e about one mile from the Titanic when she went down. Memorial Services in Augusta. Augusta, Ga. A general memorial service to Maj. Archibald W.
