Wright, of the Eastern Carolina Training School, of | Greenville delivered an address which |was followed by & talk from Miss Lillian M. Phelps representing the Katibtokf Woman's ?hfliilia*Teni per ance Union. Rev. M. T. Plyler of the Methodist | church was the chairman of the mSeet lng and introduced both speakeife of the evening. | The Dally News takes pleasure in |announcing that the addree not Pres ident Wright will Appear In full in this paper tomorrow. Th^ subject he discussed was "Pub lie Schools as They Relate to Civic I Life." i The paper submitted by the distin guished visitor was listened to with close attention and the subject mat ter was so valuable that the man agement has decided to give It full spsce In tomorrow's Issue. ' After president Wright had Anlsn ed a quartette consisting qf Messrs. | Z. M. Potts, R. 'Lee Stewart, John | Smith and Lyndon Shaw favored the laudlence with a selection "Tell Moth-1 er I'll Be There."

Phelps of the Wo jman's Christian Temperance Union, 'she was-Introduced by Rev. M. T. | Plyler of the Methodist church in I words appropriate to the occasion. Miss Phelps is a woman of com manding presence and address. The1 | Daily News will not attempt for a i moment to give a full detail of, herl adlmlrable address. Suffice it to sayj | nothing has surpassed it in Wash : lngton from a temperance standpoint. | Miss Phelps has her argument at her flhgers end and does not fail to pour hot shot Into the argument of the| anU-prohioitlonists and high license | | advocates. | Her address was not only convinc ing as to Jtgument but to this was sddsd her magnetism of manner and the attractive way in which ahe pre sented her great subject. Everyone present were simply car ried away with her speech, so much so that Miss Phelps has been prevail ed on to remain over and deliver an other lecture tonight. This she kind ly consented to do.

Oct. 26.?A unique swindling game, far reaching In op eration* and involving prominent diamond importers, was laid bare here when J. W. Napier and W. P. Duke, residences unknown were ar rested on warranta sworn out by United 8tates Postofllce Inspector Bulla, of Washington, and bound ov er by U. 8. Commissioner Cobb for the Federal court. Duke collapsed following the ar rest, turned ststes evidence and un folded the operationa of the gang to the commiaslooer without restraint.! Briefly the scheme was to order dia monds from a responsible concern C. O. D. subject t6 examination, sub stitute Imitations for the real din-1 monda and return the shipmcpts to the importers with some flimsy ex cuse as to flawa In the stones. The gang operated auccessfully in Hock Hill, 8. C.. Branchvlile, 8. C , West vllle, 8- C.. Charlottte and other neighboring towna and cities using James Parrlah, an ignorant country boy, as a decoy. Asking examination of the gems, the Importers were led to ship the precious stones to Parrlsh. On arriv al st the express oflce Duke, who professed to be a Jeweler, would ?how up with some flimsy excuse tura them b?ek to the expross com pany to be returned, taking care, fcrlng the examination to substitute the paste gems for the originals. The Imitation stoOes were supplied by a house la Terre-Hnute, Ind. Psf Ish was discharged by Commissioner Cobb, while Duke sad Napier- were >*14 in bonds of 12,500 each. Duke msde a full cOafeeslon of tb* atalT.

THE CROP M JS SHORT THE IUMl'LT OF THK DAY CAUS* KH A RKVIVAL OF THE PREDIC TION- or twcmr ci York. Oct. 2?.?With an ad vance of practically 13 a bale in the price o* cotton, eeldom If ever has the trade, accustomed aa it became a rapid fluctnatlona during the bull campaign of last aeaaon. experienced such abrupt transition from weak ness to strength displayed by the staple. The sudden climb followed the pub I llcatlon of the census bureau report ?bowing the amount of cotton ginned to October 18, waa practically fOO. 000 bales short of the g,000,000 mark which has been estimated by massy traders. The report was made public be fore the market opened and the first quotations showed an advance over Monday's close. Throughout the day prlcea worked higher until the close. On Monday the market had been 1 extremely weak and unaettled. January contracta. which on Octo ber 14 had sold at 15.01. closed that night at 13.92. a decline of nearly 15.50 per bale from the high record of laat season. This decline had been the result of heavy selling inspired by Increased estimates of the crop resulting from favorable weather re ports during September and the first half of October, and it had been an ticipated that the census bureau re port would confirm these Increased estimates by showing more cotton ginned than to the same date last year. The report showing only 5,410.000 bales ginned, compared with 5,520, 000 more thap disappointing and recent heavy sellers became alarm ed when they found that the report waa generally telerpseted aa ?anfirm ing crop estimates of 11,000,000 bal es or less. In addition to heavy covering by recent sellers, a big rush of buying orders from outside sources develop ed, the bull leaders of the esrller season, who are supposed to have ta ken profits on their long cotton when the market reached the 15. cent level. Predictions for 20-cent cotton for the end of the season were frequent ly heard In local trade circles, and the market, In short, reflected a complete revival of the bullish en thusiasm noted on the advance of the early season. Vote of Thanks. We, the county superintendents of the Northeast Division, wish to thank the good people of Washington for their very kind entertainment while In their midst and also the school authorities for the use of the elegant school bnllding for the vsrlous ses sions of the district sssociation.

TO THE PUBLIC Owing to the fact that the crop of tobacco has been sold very rapidly and very little of it Is held by the farmer*, we deem it to be to the interest of all concerned, to discon tinue the sales of tobacco at the Washington Warehouse after Friday Oct. 28th Inst, for the remainder of the season.
