Their concert was in deed aapMvatlng and those in the audience who could not tell Home Bweet Hopie from Dixie knew something good wsa going on and the consequence was they applauded as heartily as the most competent.

Their big land ale of the Car-6kaden property was a great success. All the beautiful water front lots on the Pamlico found ready buyers. All the acreage tracts were disposed of at satlsL factory prices. The "A1J Star Band" jot the Atlantic Coast Realty Company held a procession through the business and residential portion o! j the city and at the corner of? Main \ and Mhrlcet streets gars a thirty min f utas concert, after which they march eg to the Market dock where the band and a large number of lntorc3t| ed citizens In the property boarded the gas boat Pungo for the place of the sale. The Pnngo was charterad for the purpose or carrying the r1 people down. In addition to the transportation by gas boat a large number availed themselves of tha chance to go via automobile and carriages and the result was that hnn* f dreds were on the ground when the W auctioneers began to cry this attrac| tlve property for sale to the htghes'.

THE Hi ; mm imb The name "Chautauqua" like many other good things harks back to dear odd North Carolina. Prior to the coming of tha English this portion of Carolina wae Inhabited by the Tuscaroras, a nation or Indians composed of smaller tribes. One of these tribes was the Chnutauquas, or "Chattawka" Indians whose happy hunting ground was located on Neuse river, and their Indian town of tepees called "Chattawka, or Chautauqua" ocupled the site of the present town of New Bern. After the Indian massacre and war of 1710-11,-the remnant of the Tuscaroras abandoned Carolina forever. Our hlfftortna Uartln says, 'in the latter part of June, 1713, the Tuscaroras migrated northerly near the shores of Lake Oneida and were admitted Into the Confederacy of the Five Qreat Nation's of Indians, afterwarda known as the Six Great Nations." The portion of the Tubcaroras known as Chautauquas, settled on and gave their name to the beautiful little Chautauqua lake In western New York, this lake in turn pave me musical iuaian name caa . tauqua" to the parent educational Institute, or Chautauqua held thero In 1874, by Lewia Miller, of Akron. Ohio. It Is well to remember that the Cbattawka and Pamptlcoe Indians were near neighbors, and linked together by these ties Invisible, let us who live on the shores of our beautiful Pamlico river resolve that this grand Chautauqua which has come *ach an abundai become a permanent linV in our chain of efTorts for community progress, and uplift. * LIDA T.

BUSH VISITS 1 HIT US This week Miss Maragaret Wilson visited the General Federation of Wkxmen's Clubs In Chicago, and we hear that her scheduled "three mln tfte telle" on the community center Idea, was so popular that crowds blocked the streets so that It took a platoon of police to get the young lady In and out o{ the building. It Is a well known fact that the eldest ! of the President's daughters Is her father's particular pride. Miss WIJ; son heraelt Jraakiy admitted recent* TyP "My father likes to have me interest myself In civics and all kinds of betterment work. Ho is greatly Interested in improving the condition of the poor." After the meeting in Chicago Miss Wilson will visit Madison, Wisconsin, to attend the con. ference to ho held there on social settlement. work. At the same time she will take up her editorial duties I on the .pew magazine shortly to be published in that city. In the weekly Bulletin issued by the National American Woman Suf, frage Association, of which Dr. Shaw is the able president, she calls atten, tion to the four great events which have taken place during the past month which should cause all suf. fraginta to "rejoice and be exceeding ly glad." The first was the unani-! mous vote of the great "lnternation-j , al Conucll of Women," meeting in , Rome, representing twenty-eight na-1 tions and seven millions of women, "that women should be granted full i parliamentary and local suffrage with eligibility to hold office;" the second . was the large vote cast by the Lower , House of Denmark favorable to the cause of women; the next, the greut vidtory when the Federation of Woi men's Clubs In Chicago endorsed the . long debarred question of suffrage for women, after the subject had s "been tabooed for almost a quarter ,of a century. And lastly on the ? same day the decision of the Supreme Court of the State of Illinois s tiy which Use law passed by the Leg. Islature giving women the right tc . 'vote wag upheld and declared cont stitutlonal. n Notwithstanding all the doleful . prognostications of all those opposI ing the enlargement of the feminine . field activity, the results in Illinois r already refute most emphatically L their absurd forebodings. Miss Jou sle Westfall, of Macomb. 111., not only . defeated Mt. Dean Franklin in the recent election for Judge of the City ? Court, but she carried every prei cinct in the city. "By their fruits 1 ye shall know th.

NEW REPORTS OF TF ZACATICAS NOW 80* FBREST ~ WILL SHOW 1JD0SIBY ' Statistics hare been compiled by 1 the forest which show for the first lime precisely bow the lumber produced In the country Is utilised. About 45 billion feet of lAmber o( all kinds Is the annual production In the United States; of this nearly 26 billion feet, board measure, are further manufactured, the other portion remaining for rough construction lumber and for similar purposes. This Is exclusive of material which reaches Its final use In the form of , fuel, railroad ties, posts, poles, pulp uvU| bvuimiagc, nuvu uiuunuw-.o. i and the berks and extracts demand-! ed by the tanning industry. The work of collecting and compiling the figures extended over a cdTSsiderable period and was carried out state by state; hut as one full year was made the basis of statistics in . each stale the total is a fair average . of the lumber in further manufacture in the whale country. Between 60 and 60 per cent of the lumber pro- < | duced is subject to further roanuI facture. In preparing the figures in this way. however. It should be remembered that considerable material roaches sho^s and factories in the form of logs, bolts, and billets without having passed through sawmills, and while this material Is included in these statistics this fact should be remembered in comparing statistics with those of lumber production. Nearly or quite 100 different wood are used In this country under their own names, while an unknown number find their way to shops and factories without being identified or separately listed, except under general names. In quantity the softwoods, the needle-leaf or conlferoua trees, are moBt important, but there is a greater number of species among the hardwoods, or broadleaf trees. Yellow pine comes first with more than B billion feet, followed by white pine with 3 billion, and Douglas fir with a littJe more than 2 billion. It should be unedrstood. however, that the term "yellow plno" includes several species, the three most important of which are longleaf, shortleaf and loblolly. Oak. including all speWm hoc n?rlv n billion feet, and is the most Important hardwood. Mr* file comes next. Dogwood comes about half way down the list with more than seven million board feet, and of these spel ties mentioned Turkish boxwood comes last, with less than 30 thousand feet, follower by many others too Insignificant to list but making a total of all kinds of more than a million feet. Of the native species laurel, holly and yucca fall pery near the foot of the list In relative quantities used. Fifty-live principal industries use wood sb raw material. Their relative importance is hard to indicate, because quantity alone is not In all cases a criterion of value of an industry to the community in which It is situated, nor to the country as ?> whole. More than one-half of the total con sumrptlon consists of planing mill products, the largest items of which are flooring, siding, ceiling, and finishing. The next industry, in point of quantity of wood used, Is the man ufaCture of boxes and crates. Nearly four times as much wood Is demanded by makers of bores and crates as by the -builders of steam and electric cars, which comes next, and Ive fold the amount that goes Into furniture, which in turn lead; vehicle manufacture. Vehicles demand surprisingly large supplla* ci wood, and much of It must be of a high class In order to meet the requirements for frames, gears, and 1 bodies. Chairs, Hated separately from furniture, come after novelties and supplies for adlrymen, poultry keepers. 1 and apiarists, and just before han' dTe* m4 musical Instruments. About 1 midway down the IK come pumps ' tad wood pipes. Among the products important enough to Itst saps Tatejy are eases and umbrella sticks brooms, firearms, artificial Basks end . : ;* -->4^ rs j No. 9 IE FALL OF 1 BELIEVED 1 TO BE UNTRUE Washington, June 2 4.--Persistent reports of sniping hy Mexican Federals on the American outposts at Vera Cms and rumors ot further Constitutionalist advance# toward Mexico City today stirred interest In military features of the Mexican situation. Although the War Department will make public no reports from Oou eral Funston regarding sniping on the American forces, It Is known that there has been an lnrestlgatlon of continued reports to that effect. There hare been many Inferences Urat Hueita's forces were attempt- % .1 ing to provoke a fight with the AmeiIcan troopers an? force Interference. Patient waiting on mediation continued today to be the attitude of the administration. The coming of Alfredo Brecede, a representative of Carranxa was awaited with Interest * In official quarters where alme knowledge of the nature of his mission was said to have been received from Consular Agent Carothers. That Brecede and his colleagues are coming to participate In conferences with officials of the Washing ton government 1b declared to be a fact but whether they or other Constitutionalists will go to Niagara Falls to )oln the American and Huerta delegates in Informal discussion of peace still seems problematical. Administration leaders Insisted, however, that mediation prospect* were hopeful. Hope was renewed that Villa would not loons ae a stumbling by reports that he bad asserted h?s would stand by the results of mediation conference, irrespective of Cap/ ranza's attitude. Administration officials read with uatlsfaction dispatches outlining an official statement from Carranza'i headquarters at Salltllo, declaring that reports of "alarming and deep division" between the first chtef and Villa were 1 re. Semi-official dispatches from Tarnpico today said it was reliably reported there that the Constitutionalists General Natera bad taken Zacatecas on June 19th and that the troops were being hurried on to San Luis PotoBl. The report was not credited here by administration officials nor Constitutionalists. Nlagra Falls. June 24.?Further discussion of those planks of the peace program which re'stc to international differences between the United tSates and the Huarta government occupied the mediators and delegates today while waiting for a definite understanding on instructions Issued to Constitutionalists who are erpected to come here. It was said at least one of tbj planks would be framed as a protocol today, and the others would be agreed upon by the end of the week. If the puropse of the principals is fulfilled-the international side of the controversy will be cleared up, loeving the question of selecting a provisional president and other problems to a conference of representatives of the Constitutionalists and the Huerta government. Notwithstanding reports from New Orleans quoting Carranza's spokesman as casting doubt on the probability of scuh a meeting, confidence prevailed in Ameriacn quarters that ultimately the two factions would be brought together. New Orleans, June 2b.?Alfredo Breceda, private secretary and emissary of General Carranta, left here today for Washington. He said he had nothing to add to his statement of yesterday that Carransa never would agree to meet Huerta representatives in an attempt to select a provisional president of Mexico. Fernando lglesais Calderon said he probably would remain here a day or two. He said he intended to lay the case of the Liberal party in Mexico before Washington officials, but that he was not an accredited representative of Carranza on this trip. He did not say what he expected to Impart to officials at Washington. tofoacco pipes. The apportionment of wood among the various industries, grades from planing mkll products which take most, down to aeroplanes and dry -kilns, at the bottom of the list. VISITING MRS. McCLUKR.
