SONG RECITAL.
Thf; Charlotte Goodfellows' Club has
completed arrangements for a song re
cital Sunday afternoon at the city au
ditorium, when the artists who have
been at the Made-in-Carolinas . exposi
tion this' week will give a recital.
WINSTON'S INTEREST.
One of the reasons why Winston-Salem
has thrown the whole influence
of that city back of the Made-in-Carolinas
exposition was to take advantage
of the opportunity to closer bind the
these cities, according to John Smith,
of the Nissen Wagon Co., one of Winston-Salem's
oldesi. industries. "The
time has come when each North Caro
lina city must stop talking all the
u&9M.aq s.ie;uj Ajjunuiuioo jo sen
tnae ot itself and begin to talk a lot
about North Carolina," declared Mr.
Smith. He was a guest of the directors
of the exposition at their regular week
ly meeting Wednesday at Ivey's when
that body officially thanked him for
his many valuable efforts in behalf of
the exposition.
TEXTILE EXHIBITS.
The textile and allied manufactories
also attracted much attention. The sev
eral booths of textile mills show to
advantage the importance of the Caro
hnas as states of big cotton mill
interests. Various types and grades of
cloth made up in the Carolinas, yarns.

inflammation and had four
doctors but none of them did
me any good. They all said I
would have to have an oper

me to take Lydia E. Pink

and I took 22 bottles, never
missing a dose and at the end
of that time I was perfectly
well. I have never had occa

have been so well. I have a

CHURCH REPEATS
TALE TO MOTHER
Officials Now Convinced
That Boy Killed Two
Without Any Help.
Chicago, Sept- 15. Harvey W.
Church, confessed slayer of ' Bernard
Daugherty and Carl Ausmus, automo
bile salesmen, early today was brought
face to face with his mother for the
first time since his arrest andT in her
presence in the state attorney's office,
he repeated the details of the two
crimes.
He reverted largely to the first of
his many confessions and indicated,
officials declared, that he planned and
executed the murders without assis
tance. Neither Clarence Wilder nor Milton
Walker, named by Church as accom
plices, officials said they had been
convinced, had any part whatever in
the crimes and they also expressed
doubt whethe.r Leon Parks assisted
Church, despite hFs detailed confes
sion. : 4 '
Officials pointed out that Parks
stoutly maintained his innocence until
confronted by Church, who then sup
plied most of the answers to questions
put to Parks by the investigators.
Mrs. Church sat apparently un
moved today throughout her son's re
cital of the details of the murders.
At the close of his story, she re
marked: "X cannot understand why Harvey
buried the man (Carl Ausfmus) in the
garage. There is a vacant lot next
door where all the dead cats and dogs
in the neighborhood are buried. Why
didn't he bury him there? Then they
never would have found him."

NEGROES CHASED
AWAY BY WHITES
Four White Children Were
Seriously Wounded at
Spring by Negress.
Chattanooga, Tenn.. Sept. 15. Negro
families of Mont Lake, a mining v;l-!
Iage near here, were fleeing from their
homes today pursued by the white
residents of the village, following the
shooting of four white children, Edna
Barnett and her three sisters, last
night.
Jewel Clipper, a negro girl, is said
to have fired a shotgun at the white
children while they were gathered at a.
spring over which both races have
claimed rights of precedence. ' "
A posse of deputy sheriffs from this
city arrived in Mont Lake last evening
and found armed guards patrolling the
village. The Clipper girl, her parents
and a brother are under arrest. Miss
Barnett is in a hospital here and is
said to be in a serious condition.
More than a hundred armed miners
drove the negroes from their homes,
the reports said.
No injuries were reported here, al
though a number of shots were fired.
According to authorities here," both
sides have frequently been driven from
the spring by the opposing race. Offi
cers here received reports that mem5
bers of the Clipper family had in
structed their children to shoot any
white children if a quarrel developed
at the spring and that, when the Clip
per girl saw the four white children
getting water, she fired a shotgun from
the house, wounding them. .'"'
