One of the most vivid accounts of the effect of the great European -war as it is to be seen and felt in the north is related by Mr. McNinch, who privately to friends has borne back tidings of interest on the situation, telling of recent rumors of billion dol lar contracts for supplies made by the Allies with an American firm, and of the prevailing belief in the north that Europe is into the present world-conflict for at least two years time. Mr. McNinch closely observed the business signs while on his recent trip and declared to friends here that the war has had a tremendous effect on every line of business, and has somehow permeated and gripped the heart of business in a way seldom known. Makers of supplies, of any thing that can be used by the fighting nations in their conflict, are overrun with orders, and Mr. McNinch has said that if reports are true, not a few of the big manufacturers of war mate rial, and perhaps metal products, are booked with orders for two years , to come. "The war will last at least two years longer; that seems to be the most gen erally accepted time-limit placed on the fighting by the keenest observers in the north," added Mr. McNinch. Parks Land Company Incorporated A charter "has been granted by the secretary or . state to the Parks Land Company, a new corporation for Charlotte, a copy of the charter being on file in the .office of the clerk of .the court.

Patrolman House Had To Settle Close Point In "Square" Etiquette Since Charlotte has lifted herself by the bootstraps out of the baseball cel lar, the fans here have received such big additions to their daily supplies of baseball enthusiasm that they: are talk ing and thinking of little else than the national sport. ; The above is now accepted by Pa trolman House as the explanation of the remark made to him -by an excited fan on yesterday while . the sun was shining in true baseball fashion and all the world was inciting on the base ball fever. , A local fan end his friend had start ed across the precincts of Indepen dence Square from Blake's, walking in a great hurry. When the two men reached the north corner of the - law environed and ordinance-bound area, one swung away from the corner and took a short cut across the bitulithic towards Jordan's. Hurrying along the side lines where the chalk shows yet indistinctly, the friend of the first fan wildly waved at Mr. House. "Judgment on that," he cried to the policeman, "that man didn't touch third base." Mr. House took notes on the con versation and later aad it explained for him by baseball fans about Jor dan's drug store. Old Flint-Lock Pistol Of Curious Workmanship Bought in Turkey Mr. C O. Griggs, of this city, who was formerly in the United States navy, has In his possession a weap on of rare workmanship and orna mentation, which he values as a me mento of a visit to Turkey some months ago. It is an old flint-lock, muzzle loading single-barrel pistol, with the peculiar handle so beloved by the Turks and with Moslemic em blems delicately wrought on the han dle.' The weapon is highly ornamented with silver mountings nad". elaborately inlaid with tracing in silvered flowers and twigs, evidently having at one time been the weapon of some Turk ish ofilcial of high rank It must be', judgine from the fact that it is the 'flintlock age' over ali'undredyears Old. : " V Mr. Griggs bought the weapon from a dealer, in curios and gave a mere song for it.
