THE LUTHERAN SYNOD.
; Decides Unanimously to Build
Church at State University.
Hickory. Nov. 11.—Several im-1
I portant actions featured the second i
day of the Lutheran synod. A field i
secretary to have charge of Sunday
schools, Luther leagues and brother
hoods was decided on. The executive
committee of synod will shortly
select such a man. Ily a unanimous
vote it \va» decided by synod to erect
a Lutheran church at the State
university. Plans are already being
made to canvass for this cause and ,
to secure tlie jn-sistance of tlie :
finance board of the United Luth- j
eran Church of Atneriea.
The opinion prevails that around
$7.1.000 will be spent in the erection!
[ of such a church, though no definite j
! action was taken.
The institutions of synod made
fine reports, and a strong appeal was
j made to the synod to cover its part
i in tli£ $.300,000 endowment fund*now
being raised for the southern semi
, navy. The proposal to establish a
Lenoir-Rhyne system of schools,
which means the placing ot all
Lutheran institutions of learning in
the state under one head, is now
holding the attention of the synod.
From present indications this meas
ure will be deferred to another tune.
Commemorates Day.
At 11 o'clock synod adjourned for
30 minutes to commemorate Arm
istice Day, speakers for the occasion
being chaplains and former service
men in the A. E. F. The flag was
brought into the church'and placed
at the altar. Appropriate remarks
were made concerning the hard
ships of war, the valor of American
soldiers, the outlook for peace as
seen in the Locarno treaty and the
part played by American Lutherans
; in the great war- Eight ministers on
| the roll Os synod and 65 per cent of
! the manhood of the American Luth
j eran church fought to estab ish
freedom. This is a higher per cent
than was given by any Protestant
church. * •
The home missionaries of the
synod, composed of 15 men, held
luncheon together and reviewed the
problems of mi-sion work.
On Thursday the entire synod is
invited to take dinner on the cam
pus of Lenoir-Rhyne college, the con-’
greyations of the community giving
the dinner.
Dr. C. P. Wiles presented the edu
cational interests of the church as
represented by publications and in
thirty million pieces of literature a
year, in addition to books and maga
zines, and controls 28 educational
institutions, with a student body of
8,000 and $14,000,000 in property
valuation.
Inner Missions.
Dr. W. Freeze spoke on inner mis
sions,’ stating that the present ef
fort of the church is to place the
orphan in a home of the church
rather than an institution- He also
plead for more girl to enter the
deaconness homes and assist the
church in doing its work.-

STATE RESTS IN CASE
OF THE JAIL STORMERS
Eight Defendants Releaseed For Want
of Sufficient Evidence.
Asheville, Nov. 11.—With ranks
thinned by admissions on the part of
tho solicitor that lie was unable to
make out cases against eight of their
number, defendants who have been on
trial in superior court here this week
following wholesale indictments by a
Buncombe county grand jury as a re
sult of the storming of the county jaii.
attempted to weaken the i»osjtion of
the prosecution with a host of char
acter witnesses.* many of whom were
officials of the city and county, dur
ing a long and monotonous session
yesterday. \_/
The state had rested its case against
the 38 defendants who are on trial
early in the day, and there folowed
vigorous attempts on the part of va
rious defense attorneys to obtain uit
release of their clients on the ground
of insufficient evidence.
This resulted in the release of sev
en defendants. Herschel King. Geo.
Merrill, James Redmond. Eugene Cole,'
Sam Griffin, John Jarvis and H. G.
Rayburh. Just before court adjourn
ed for the day Solicitor Ed. Swain
stated that he wanted to accept a
' verdict of not guilty in the case of
Dolbert Martindale. reduced the
number of defendants to 30. ail of
whom are still -on trial.
Elmer Luther. Douglas Bishop, G.
N. Waldrdp and A. G. Higgins, all
defendants, took the stand late yes
terday and related their version cf
what happened on the night of Sep
tember 10, when the county jai l was
stormed by a mob alleged to have
been bent upon lynching Alvin Manse),
negro, who has since been s -ntenced
to death for criminal assault upon a
white woman. . ....
All denied that they were impli
cated in the mob activity, but admit
ted that they were at the jail on the
night when the crowd crashed the
gate and entered. Bishop declared
that he had been deputized by Com
missioner C. P. Bartlett to assist in
quelling the disturbance. ILliggins de
nied that he had entered the jail
yard at all.
About this time Judge A. M. btack
observed that it was "very apparent
that somebody stormed the county
jail, and equally apparent that some
body must be guilty.”
The court then called attention to
the fact that one attorney had ap-
proached him some time before *ri re
gal'd to allowing two of his clients
to submit to the charge against them.
“When a defendant comes into
court after that and attempts to fight
the charges after that, he must take
the fortunes of war. Judge Btufk
continued. "In the case of tho* who
I s ubmit, the court will be inclined to he
lenient.”

Heads of their national union, who
have been in the city attempting to

HIGHS PLAY L4ST GAME
OF SEASON HERE FRIDAY
Mt. Pleasant Comes to Concord Fri
day to Scrap For Title of Cabarrus
County.
Concord's High School football team
will bring to a close a season, not en
tirely successful, on Friday.
The team which has been secured
to furnish the opposition is the Mt.
Pleasant Cadet eleven and the scrap
for the title of Cabarrus County.
Kannapolis, tlie only other city in the
county will be out of it, having dis
banded some months ago after foot
ball was found to interfere with school
work.
Very little is known of tlie Cadet
aggregation. They have played some
I good games this year but are far from
as strong as they were last year. The
; Concord and Mt. Pleasant teams look
like very evenly matched elevens and
j a good scrap is promised to spectators.
The local outfit last week took on
Albemarle for a second game and beat
the Stanly team in the last few mo
ments of the games. Fumbles gave
the ball to Albemarle time after time
when it looked as though Concord
would go for a touchdown. A last
minute drive carried the pigskin
across the chalk anti a subsequent
kick invade tlie exitra point for a
j 7-0 score.
j Close followers of the football sit
! nation here have been very pleased
| with the showing which the High
School made. Handicapped by the
loss of many of the first string men
Coach MeAuley was forced to build
a team from the ground up. That
the team has won half its games has
been a good indication of the progress
j made.
The game with M. I\ C. I. is to be
played at Webb Field at 3:15 o'clock.
A large number of spectators are ex
pected to attend the game which
ushers out.the 1025 season.

Charge Made by Widow of
Commander of Shenan
doah When Called to Tes
tify in Mitchell Case.
CAPT. FOLEY WAS
LETTER AUTHOR
Defense Sought to Proves
that Mrs. Lansdowne
Was Asked to Give False
Testimony Before Board
Washington. Nov. 12. — UP)— Called i
to substantiate Col. Mitchell’s charges f
that improper attempts had been made
to influence her testimony before the
Shenandoah board of inquiry, Mrs.
Zachary Lansdowne, widow of the
dirigible’s commander, testified ip the
Mitchell court martial today that
Copt. Paul yoley, of the naval board,
had sent bet a letter which was “an
insult." to the Memory of her husband, j
Defense counsel sought to prove by
her testimony that a navy officer en-!
deavored to have her give false testi
mony before the Shenandoah board of
inquiry by retracting her formal state
fnent that Commander Lansdowne
was ordered to take the Shenandoah
on her fatal flight to the middle west
over his protest.
The court apd counsel stood as the
first woman to testify in the case,
took the witness stand and was sworn.
She was nervous and plainly weak '
and weary from illness and the try-1
Ing experiences of recent weeks. She i
answered in a tremulous voice the j
preliminary questions put to qualify j
her as a witness.
"Did you receive a communication
from (’apt. Paul Foley, trial judge
advocate of the naval court relative
to your testimony before that court?"
asked Mr. Reid. “I did." the widow !
replied. "Have you that eommunica- 1
tion?” "I have not." “What did you
do with it?" "1 tore it urf."
Col. Sherman Moreland, the prose
cutor objected when Mr. Reid asked
the witness what was in the com
munication she destroyed.
’The defense attorney said lie asked
the question because Col. Mitchell had
charged that the navy would "white
wash the Shenandoah catastrophe,"
and he wanted to prove the charge.
The court after some discussion as
to the admissibility of Mrs. Lans
downe’s testimony, directed her to
answer the question.
