Mr- N- S. Ogburn the principal for the past three years, is now at the Moody Bible School in Chicago. This fall he will be at Vanderbiltin Nashville 'and later will go to the foreign ! field. In his place Mr. J. Foy Justice, of Hendersonville, has been secured. He comes very highly recommended, being con sidered by those in authority as ! one of the strongest of a class of I 56 members at Wake " Forest. He has had one year's experience in teaching."

It will be' a full dress occasion, and the benefit will be given to the Gates Orchestra, the music rtf whirli .is so hierhlv admired by lip CIliCK This great home journal has told the truthful tale of the chick-. en with the wooden leg. Also of the fish and the dollar bill. This is of the chicken with a gold ring three stones on its leg. It was; a hen chicken of course. Jess Shepherd had fried chick en for dinner last Sunday. George, his4 youngest boy, was busy with a leg of the chicken, when his teeth closed on a solid gold ring with three stones in it which was firmly fastened, un broken, around the leg of the fowl. The boy is now wearing the ring instead of the chicken. How did the ring get there? Mr. Shepherd says the chicken was young and tendhr and plump, and he always thought it a bit vain it was a hen chicken, you know. He thinks the ring was a token of love and esteem from some admiring rooster, but Ho mer Hawkins, the jeweler, says he never, in all his life sold a rooster a' solid gold ring with three stones in it. That is, so far as he can recollect And of course Mr. Hawkins would recol lect it would be so unsunal a I rooster asking to be shown an engagement ring, with .. three stones in it! So, how did the hen get the ring and how did she get it in her leg? The Daily Hustler will go free to the person offering the best solution of a mystery, which has kept us awake nights for most a week. WINS VALUABLE PRIZE. v Miss Rosa Sunofsky, this city, won a valuable prize of a $65 tailor made suit last week, as a result of her labors as a candi date in the Citizen's contest. Mr. Adams, a representative of the Citizen, says that Miss Rosa stands a favorable showing for the automobile. int. W. P. Barlett Was walking around yest'day morning with his hand .well wrapped. He says that in handling his gun, not knowiner that it was loaded, it was discharged, part of a load of number eight sho t lodging in his hand. Eight Feet of Water. The new dam of the Electric Light Company on Big Hungry was tested last Thursday and it stood the test. At 3 o'clock they telephoned to town that it was raining theref just a little. At 5 o'clock they telephoned again- i nis time tne water naa risen 8 feet, and in a solid, irresistible, Ifoam-flecked wall was dashing over the concrete dam with such force 4 that it struck the rocks in the river, bed 12 feet from the dam. The foreman of the plant walked across the river, between the outermost projections of the dam, six feet from its face, and the descending curtain of water, dry shod and with a dry skin. . The wall of water, carrying logs, trees, debris of every de scription, roaring and tearing over the jagged rocks and finally spending its angry strength on the massive dam was a spectacle magnificent, and the fact that the dam was absolutely uninjured in its contest with this outburst of Dame Nature speaks well for the solidity of the massive struc ture., r . mi i il . i 1 J Ago Pnze Contest At le Gates The'euchre party at the Gates last evening was a very enjoy- (able affair. The game lasted from 9:30 until 11:30. Then the score cards were dalled. The punches showed that the two head prizes had Ibeen won by Mrs. Burroughs, of Henderson, who received a beautiful burnt wood box con taining two dainty handkerchiefs and Mrs. Fulton, of Texas, who received a large copy of Christie's picture entitled ''Summer." ,Mr. Frank Edwards received the booby, a small package which, when its numerous wrappings were removed, was found to con tain a pair of tiny shoes "for de feet" (defeat). All drew rib bons from a basket of flowers for the consolation, and Mrs Bunch being the lucky one, found' a pretty handkerchief attached to the other end of her ribbon. i New Management. S. H. Friedman, of Port De posit, Maryland, is stopping at the Summer Home, intends to leave for Denver, Colorado next Monday. ' This is his second visit to Hen dersonville, where he has had the management of the Singer Sewing Machine company in this territory.

Ganzens, of Jadksonvillle, who is now in the city, and who has been with the company for three years. Fri day Daily. He Didn't Gome. The Hendersonville ball team did not succeed in getting a man from Durham to help them in the game today. The team has been playing so much lately some of the boys are carrying painful bruises. Forest has a sore finger and Rhodes limps from a sore foot. Anyway they will try their luck. ' ThuradavatS o'clack a two year-old child got stranded from its home land was wandering around on Broad Street. Mrs. Homer Hawkins saw it on the street near her home, and fear ing that it would be run over 'by a car or vehicle, took it in The child would only say, "Papa's gone." Mrs. Hawkins put out the alarm by phoning to different places in town. In about three hour's time its mother was located, she being a Mrs. Scott, stopping at the Smith Cottage. The child had been left with a nurse, who let it go astray. It had gone the distance of three blocks, and there was great rejoicing when the parents found it. ; i At The Lyric.

J.B.BOONE His Last Years at the Or- piianage and Not- Whol ly ihie. Rev. M. L. Kesler, general manager at the Baptist orphan age in Thomasvjlle, preached in Statesville recently and spoke of the work at the orphanage. In , concluding his remarks, says a Statesville dispatch, Mr. Kesler spoke feelingly 5 of the life and character of the late manager of the orphanage, Rev. J. B. Boone, who died recently at Henderson ville. JMr. Boone was manager of the orphanage ten years and gave up the work three years ago when Mr. Kesler took charge. Mr. Kesler stated that Mr. Boone was one of the best and most in fluential men that has ever lived in North Carolina, and the Bap tist and general citizenship of the state will never realize what he has done for them. He was not only a, fine pastor, but was a public-spirited citizen, having organized the first graded school in the state at Charlotte, Dur ing his last days at the orphan age he did -some things whjch caused bitter charges to , Jbe brought against him, and it was not learned until his death that Mr. Boone was not-himself when he advanced the ideas which, caused the trouble at the orphan age. He died from "softening of the brain" and it was found at it had effected him for some years, but not until a short time before his deaths He had enough burdens at the orphanage for two men and could not stand up under them. Mr. Boone detected his trouble himself before his condi tion became critical and ' during his last rational hours he spoke pathetically of his troubles. The people of the state should know these facts and Mr. Kelser is making them public. A long ar tide by him relative to the mat ter mentioned will appear in the Bibical Recorder this week. Mr. Kesler says that the Bap tist of Statesville, Salisbury and other places, whom Mr. Boone served in early life can never do him enough honor. His influence during the time he was pastor of the First Baptist church of States ville, which he organized in 1875 .with a bout fifteen members, was greatr He laid the foundation of the work and underwent great sacrifices. He was a gentleman always and deserved the honor of the people of the state and espe cially the members ot the congre gations of Statesville, Salisbury, Hendersonville and the other con gregations served by him in the early days, and a movement is therefore on foot to raise $500 to place a memorial tablet' in the new infirmary as a memorial to him. The Ladies Protest. , A few days ago a suggestion was made through the Hustler by some citizens of the town, that the young shade trees be -trimmed to a certain height. Now comes the kick from the ladies, both by the-city people and the guests. They are proclaming that the grass has grown so high on some of the streets, that early in the morning, or alter a ram, : they can't walk the streets without soiling their dresses. They also claim that the shade trees are so low that they can't walk un der them without almost ruining A f 1 A 1 . It wieir nais ana it is an so.

RALEIGH, July 23. -The state democratic executive com mittee tonight elected A. H. El ler of Winston-Salem chairman to succeed Hugh C. Chaaham, resigned. Chairman Eller reap pointed Alex J. Field secretary. In accepting the chairmanship, A. H. Eller spoke enthusiasti cally of the outlook, and express ed ' confidence that he wculd have the hearty support of dem ocrats all over the sta'e. The chair was directed by resolution to appoint a committee of five to revise the democratic plan . of or ganization, and report to the next meeting of the executive committee. - Governor Glenn was called on for a speech and expressed .the wish that some of the enthusiam that he saw in Denver could be injected into the committee meeting and into North Carolina democracy. He declared that he never saw anything like it. He believed enough Western states would be carried for Bryan with the solid South to assure Bryan's election without New York. At the same time he believed the democratic financial and other planks would so impress New York financial and other interests. before the campaign was over as to go along way toward demo cratic majorities m a number of the Eastern states. Cjtizien. Cannery at Dana. The Merchant Brothers can nery at Dana opened for business last week. Today they are un loading a car, which contains about 20,000 tin cans. The com pany has canned somewhere near 25,00 cans of fruit and vegetables this season, and expects to have as many as 50,000 at the end of the summer. Case and Jones, of Dana, will open their factory next week, and intend to preserve thousands of cans this season.

Miss Pace was at the general delivery window at the postoffiee yesterday, when a middle-aged j n j man, a stranger ana wen urea- sed, said: ' Are you the postmaster? ' ' No, sir. Mr. Jackson is the' postmaster and you will find him in his office in the rear of the ear of the building. Do you want to see him?
