Baty had fallen from the summit of Whiteside mountain at Fool's Rock and rolled 150 feet down an almost verti cal cliff, and lodged against a small bush, two inches from the brink of a precipice 2,000 feet deep, part of his body dangling over the edge. Wright- and Dillard descended th vertical ledge, their -only handholds oi footholds being ridges and hollows j rot more than an inch in height or I depth. Wright's wife saw him v and ! began to scream. He was unnerved, but pushed on. Stopping at a tiny bush six feet above Baty, he let his feet down to a ledge two feet above the brink and then grasped Baty's coat collar. Baty, gave a sudden jerk, but became quiet when Wright threatened him. Pinning his legs around the bush, Wright drew Baty up a place of com parative safety, "where Dillard, wl had lost his nerve in the ffnal stas of the rescue, was waiting. The two c.en took Baty, who was delirious 15 feet across the bare face of the cliff, within 18 Inches of the brink. Then they moved Baty to the foot of the vertical ledge at the summit, from which point he was hoisted by means of a line. He recovered. The rescue took two hours and 30 minutes. . DISTRIBUTING RED SEALS. Southern Express Company to Carry Bed Cross Seals Free. The Southern Express company ha3 granted free carriage for red cross Christmas seals to all parts of North Carolina. This is a special conces sion to the Red Cross Seal committee ol the State, but the same favor has been granted some other states. This a not only a contribution of several hundred dollars to the anti-tuberculosis work, of these states but is also a recognition on the part of the express company of the value of the sale of the Red cross Christmas stamps in arousing sentiment that will help eradicate this disease which destroys 6.000 lives in North Carolina' every year. - " It probably realizes the enormous economic value of the fight against tuberculosis. Every ; untimely death ia estimated, to be an economic loss of $5,000 to the State or community. At. this rate tuberculosis costs the State $30,000,000. To combat with this disease the State is spending a mere pittance. The Red Cross. Seal committee hopes to raise $10,000 this year by selling 1,000,000 red cross seals. These seals or stamps are used as decorative stickers on letters and packages during several weeks before Christmas. They will be sold in nearly every section of the State and can be secured of the Red Cross Seal committee at Charlotte. The action of the express company as indicated above will help a great deal in distributing the seals and literature. go to your room," he commanded.

"Everybody in this house," she said, is for football all the time." The students stayed calling for-Mr. Duke, who sent down the message "I have nothing to do with running college affairs, but personally am not against football." V v ; Resolutions have been drawn up and will be signed by all varsity men that there will be no more athletics at Trinity, neither class nor inter collegiate games until the authorities accede to the demands for class foot ball.
