Rome correspondent of the London Express says ao old parch ment bas been found at Caulonia, in the ancient hermitage of a Capuchin friar who died a century ago. The document was deciphered with great difficulty. It was written by a pious hermit of the ancient Convent of Capuchins, founded m 1552, who died in 1768, and con tains a prophecy for the period from 1763 to the year 2000. • The strange document foretells for the year 1702 the outbreak of a revolution in France and the inven tion of a “new machine under which the king and queen would perish- , ■ , A terrible war which will de vastate Europe is foretold in 1910, to be followed by famine m the whole world. Earthquakes, inunda tions and other catacysms are the toll of the vjear 1925, in Which three suns will appear Sicily will be swallowed up by the sea in 1960 and Naples will be de stroyed by fire, the hermit avers. France and Spain will be destroyed by earthquakes ip 1970. Tbe whole of the East will be ravaged by a ter rible plague in 1980. There will be an eclipse of the sun and the earth Will be plunged in darkness in 1990, the prophecy says. After six days the first Star will ap pear ; mortality will be vert heavy throughout the worldthe cities will be deserted. In 2000 —the end 6t the world. Intcnrrban Attentions. Charlotte Observer. 'A New York commercial agency that has picked up stock in the Piedmont & Northern as an inviting investment, is making exhibit of eftruings by this line and incidental conservation of these earnings, : which give renewed confidence in the projected extensions of its lines. The understanding is that the Piedmont & Northern is con serving its atrnings on account of the agition of the people to extend the line abrth of Charlotte to Winston- Salem and to connect up the line be tween Gastonia and Spartanburg.” As a matter of fact, The Observer has en tertained definite belief that the local company has been doing that very tiring, and that it has about accumu lated enough reserve to justify the early beginning of the work. We be lieve the present tear will see ‘‘some thing doing” in line of public expecta tion. Os course in a project of this kind, there is much of detail to be worked out, but The Observer would not be surprised if the Piedmont & Northern’s publicity man gets into ac tion before long. Incidentally, ftie Piedmont & Nor thern lias 50,841 shares outstanding. Last year the company said ail taxes and all debts of any kind«nd had net earnings of $555,460,000 to its credit whVh would make the per share stand itz A Real University. Dearborn Weekly. The president of Hopkins University marked the fiftieth anni versary of that institrttion by an nouncing that the university is to give up its undergraduate depart ment and return to its original prin ciples of a foundation for graduate in struction and research. It will ac cept students who have accomplished two years of college work and offer them a three years’ course for the degree om master of arts and a four years’ course for that of doctor of philosophy. The college degree of bachelor of arts will not be con ferred. President Goodnow believes that the student who desires to con centrate on special subjects" and to do productive eereach work therein is now obliged to give up too many years to general study in the under graduate college. It i» probable that a good many educators vTill envy ’Johns Hopkins the opportunity of striking orit a path toward genuine university organization in the United States, aud it is also probable that this may be the first step in a general reorganization of the college and uni-' vensity system as it has grown up in this country.

Police Officer Given Freedom on Bail at Habeas Corpus Hearing I in Albemarle. I A. B. Medlin, Concord police of ficer and deputy sheriff, was freed on bail by Superior Court Judge ’■ Sclienck in Albemarle Thursday, he having easily raised bond in the sum of $3,000. The officer last week shot and killed Mark Simpson, Union county farmer, and had been held in the Union county jail. Sis lawyers ar ranged the habeas corpus hearing be-' fore Judge Shenck, who is presiding at Court at Albemarle this week. The hearing did not last but a few min utes and friendß of the officer who were present arranged for the bond. The bondsmen are J. L. Hartsell, C. A. Cannon and I. I. Qbvis, Jr., all of Concord. Mr. Medlin left Albemarle imme diately after the hearing, gefing to] the home of relatives. He returned to Concord later, and has resumed his-police duties at the Hartsell and Franklin mills. His case is sched uled to come up iri Union County Su perior Court in July. No witnesses were called by Judge Schenck, who had been given a copy of testimony taken at a preliminary hearing in Monroe on Monday. Re corder Lemmond ruled at that time that the case was a bailable ome but was not in the jurisdiction of his court. His decision led to the habeas corpus writ. While Mr. Medlin did not take the stand fft the priliminary hearing, he told officers when he surrendered that he shot Simpsoh after the latter had advanced on him with threats. State’q witnesses at the hearing testified thlt Mr. Medlin was not mad when the fight started and that apparently , Simpson not mad, although he was quoted as laying he was going to beat the officer "half to death.” The shooting occurred on--Mr. Medlin’e farm in Union county and tbe only eye-witnesses were Mr. and Mrs. Briton Helms, brother-in-ldw and sis ter of the dead man, and friends of Mr. Medlin argue that their testimony at the 'priliminary hearing was very favorable to the officer.
