Prices opened 1-4 on to 1-3 up and then gradually de clined all around. Argentina . rains and Liverpool strength brought about only a slight temporary advance in corn. Quotations started 1-8 lower to l-3al-4 higher and later suffered a general setback to be neath last njghfs level. Bears had the advantage in the oats crowd. Packehs unloaded provisions and there was a general decline. A decided rally in wheat resulted from reports of increased Hessian fly damage, especially in Missouri and to foreign buying here.

Dugan's watch and other val uables were found in their posses sion. One negro carries a pistol shot wouud in the side supposed to have been inflicted by officers after a robbery in Roanoke, Va., last week.

Jones on a charge of disorder ly conduct. The defendant was arrest ed yesterday afternoon by Officer Jim Johnston, who watched him ma nipulate a camera and "snap" several ladies as they mounted street cars leaving Independence Square. The of ficer observed the camera man, he said, attempting to keep the camera concealed under his coat until be saw a etreet car about to take on lady passengers, when he would focus the camera, click it and put it back under his coat. The bluecoat adjudged the young man's conduct reprehensible enough to cause his interference and he ar rested him. charging him, with disor derly conduct. He was represented in court this morning by Mr. F. M. Redd, who put up a strong defense for his client. The recorder, however, held that the defendant was guilty of disorderly conduct. Mr. Redd gave notice of appeal for his client. FUNERAL SERVICE OF MISS TRUE W0RTHEN IMPRESSIVELY SAD The funeral services of Miss True Worthen, yesterday afternoon in Try on Street Methodist church, were at tended by hundreds of friends. The service was conducted by Rev. Dr. B. K. McLarty pastor of the church. The service was most Impres sive and there were few dry eyes. The hymns "Lead Kindly Light" and "Some Day We'll Understand," were sung. The floral tributes were beautiful and in greatest profusion. Among the handsomest were designs sent by the Western Union Telegraph Company, from New York, Atlanta, Richmond and Charlotte, Miss Worthen being pri vate secretary to her brother, Mr, Her bert Worthen, general manager - of the Southern Division of the Western Union. The social event of the evening, one anticipated with unusual pleasure as it promises unusual charm, will be the dance at Riverside to be given by Mr. and Mrs. C. V. Palnier. up-town station at 8:30.

There was a renewal ow yesterday's buying at the opening of the cotton market today and first prices were 3 to 5 higher. Cont'nued firnrjness in Liverpool and unsettled weather in the Southwest seemed to attract fresh demand for long account but the early advance brought in a good deal of realizing. Prospects for more favorable weather helped to check the upward move ment but the market showed a steady undertone. After the close of Liverpool, the buying became less active and prices eased off under continued realizing or local selling with active months rul ing about net unchanged to 8 points lower early in the noon hour. Trading was less active during the afternoon, but prices ruled fairly steady with old crop positions 3 to 4 points lower while the new crop held unchanged. New York Spot Cotton. New York, May 3.

Turner, was sentenced this morning by Judge Walter J. Adams in the superior court to six months' labor on the roads for forgery, after he had been convicted of that charge yesterday. A. C. Hamilton, white, was fined $10 and the costs for assault and James P. Taylor, white, was fined $10 and the costs, this latter case having been appealed from the recorder's court. Ed Sifford, white, was being tried this afternoon on the charge of em bezzlement, y If is probable that the court will be adjourned this afternoon, as the docket is almost cleared, there having been but few cases on it of very much interest. The court has ground them off at a steady clip all week and finds that this afternoon will probably see the last one tried and disposed of. CHARLOTTE PRODUCE. (Corrected daily by J, I. Blakely.)

MUNICIPAL LEAGUE (Continued from Page One.) ture exhibit, which will be one of the features of the session. In the coun cil chamber and hallway .and corri dor of the city hall the pictures il lustrating every phase of North and South Carolina municipal life will be displayed on wallr- suspended frames and bulletin boards. Among the most conspicuous ones that were practically- in the position this morning that they will be found in during the exposition are those of Wilmington, Asheville, . Dunn, Greens boro, Gastonia and Charlotte. The pictures of several cities that will be shown to advantage in the exhibit were delayed in transmission. Among them was Asheville's which is ship ping six large trunks full of pictures illustrating life, municipal and other wise, in North Carolina's leading mountain city. The pictures will rep resent, it is said, almost every phase of life and activity in Asheville. Wilmington. The illustrations depicting Wilming ton are practically all in position in the council chamber of the city hall and show that municipality off to de cided advantage. Pictures of Wrights ville Beach, the Cape Fear River wa-tej- front and its shipping, the prin cipal buildings of the city, the Coun try Club grounds and golf links, the A. S. A. L. drawbridge over the Cape Fear .the dancing pavilion, "Lumina' at Wrightsville. bathing scenes at the various beaches and many other interesting scenes will keep the visi tor to the temporary museum of mu nicipal life at the city hall busy look ing for a long while. Greensboro. Greensboro's exhibition is also a splendid one, as is also that of Dunn. Greensboro's exhibit deals more large ly with the distinctly municipal af fairs of the Gate City than with the industries thereabout, although there are plentiful illustrations of the Prox imity Mills, where the Messrs. Cone have made model mill villages; the Pomona Terra Cotta Company and other enterprises. The new city mar ket, several views of which are seen, will be a matter of interest to all who attend the exhibit in view of the fre quent agitation for such an institu tion here. It is a handsome building and was designed by Hook & Rogers of this city. The opera house, owned and operated by the city of Greens boro, and the only one so operated m North Carolina, is another interesting feature of the Gate City exhibit, while the police and fire departments, street working forces and other civic bodies and organizations are also well il lustrated. Castonia. Gastonia's exhibition is surrounded by the hoodooistic number "13." It has thirteen mill corporations repre sented in the exhibit, showing Gas tonia, with its 12,000 population, to be the leading cotton manufacturing cen ter in the state. The pictures are displayed on a background of thirteen yards of Canton flannel and it took thirteen hours' work last night by Commercial Secretary Lloyd last night to mount them. Among the pic tures is one of the 'Old Mill," built in 18S0 and the oldest cotton mill in Gastonia its building being in reality the start of the cotton manufacturing industry in Gaston county. Public Invited. Raleigh and other cities and ifiany lesser municipalities of this state and perhaps a few from South Car olina will be illustrated with represen tative pictures from the exposition is well under way and the whole will constitute a picture story of North Carolina municipal life that a printed volume could not make so real. The exhibition will at all times be open to the public, which is cordially invited to view it during the two days' ses sion of the Muniicpal League here. Parade at 10 O'clock A. M. The session of the league here will be introduced by a parade, in which all Charlotte's official family will partici pate, as will the escort to the visiting municipal visitors. A caravan of auto mobiles will be placed at the disposal of Mayor C. A. Bland, who is presi dent of th league, and the visitors will be transported over thel ine of march by this made of travel. The head of the parade will rest at the city hall on North Tryon street. Five or six mounted policemen will head the parade. Behind them will come the officers of the league, Mayor Bland of Charlotte, Mayor Shell, of Dunn secretary of the association, and others in automobiles. Following in other automobiles will be the visiting mayors and other visiting municipal delegates. Then will come the board of aldermen, the executive board, the water board, the city board of school commissioners all in automobiles. Be hind them will come the police depart ment who wil ltravel in the automo bile police patrol wagon, Chief Moore's five-passenger touring car, the horse drawn patrol wagon, "Black Maria' and ont or two extra automobiles pressed into service. Next will come the health depart ment and street forces. Chief Amos Cook and his sanitary officers will be in automobiles which will be followed by six wagons of the street depart ment, two street sprinklers, three FOR STOMACH TROUBLE John W. SkiHen of Sidney, Ohio, Has Found a Remedy. Experts declare that the f reason stomach disorders are so common, in this country is due to hasty and care less habits of eating. Stomach trou bles and run-down conditions usually go together. John W. Skillen of Sidney, Ohio, says: ."I had a bad stomach trouble for years, and became so weak that I could hardly walk or do any work. My appetite was poor, and it seemed impossible to get any relief. Since taking 'Vinol'-1 find a remarkable im provement in my health, my digestion is much stronger, and I have gained in weight. I w-ouLj not be without Vinol." . Vinol makes weak stomachs strong because it strengthens and tones up the weakened, tired and overtaxed eo nf Mo rliarestive orsrans. Vinol is easily assimilated by the weakest stomachs, and is aewcious to tue taste. Try a bottle of Vinol with the un derstanding that your money will be returned if it does not help you. R. H.
