W JS HOSPITALS ARE PROVIDED FOR Ex REYNOLDS' WILL. bate Head- of Reynolds Tobacco Com pany Leaves $120,000, Each for Negro and White Hospital. Winston-Salem, Aug. 12; The will of the late R. J. Reynolds, which was filed with the clork of the Superioi court here this afternoon, provides $120,000 for the establishment of an other white hospital in Winston Salem and $120,000 for a negro hos pital for this city. Mrs. Katherine S. Reynolds, widow of deceased, is named as executrix One-third of the entire estate is left to the wife and two-thirds to the four children, two daughters and two sops. To Mrs. Reynolds, W. W. Reynolds and the city officials is left the duty of selecting sites, plans and details for the two hospitals to be erected. No estimate is given as to the val ue of the estate which consists largely of real estate, stocks in the R. J. Rey nolds Tobacco Company, cotton mille in this and other states, etc. W S S Luke's Joe Miller Contest (Cincinnati Enquires.) O. C. Collins of Jelico, Tenn., claims that the oldest joke-is the one about the Justice in the Western min ing town who had determined to stop the carrying and use of firearms on the street.

"But I didn't hit anybody," com plained the tough guy. a .,f t'tYbu fired; thei tundidn.'to "Yes," admitted 1 the- tough- guy "But J fired it into the air."

In the county court (Monday morn ing there were several hundred spec tators, the great majority being col ored, men and women, who were at tracted by a case in wMch the con gregation of the Sanctified church, colored, figures. This morning there .were about half tlhis number there again to hear a lease of assault grow- xiig out of yesterday's oase. This unusual numlber of spectators, only a small number, comparatively, being interested in the case either as witnesses or Ipxinoijpals, caused Judge Wright to draw some conclusions, to wit: That there muet evidently be a largo number who have no means of employment. He therefore stated that all such must get jobs ior run tlhe risk of going to the work house or roads, tind he instructed the officers to make some inquiries and find out haw many had- profitable employment. Referring to tlhe number of women in the audience Judge Wright said that cooks and washerwomen were in demand, there was employment for the men and they must find work. Attorney Price injected an inquiry into the case by saying, "Why stand ye here idle al lthe day ?" and inciden tally recalled that an idle mind was t'e devil's work shop. It is certain that as a result of the court's remarks on the attendance at courts of disinterested persons will have some effect and whether those who frequent the court room as spec tators go to work or not they will probably imake themselves less con spicuous at session after session of the court.
