Our exchanges contained the an nouncement that when an important case was resumed for trial in the Su perior Court of Guilford county Satur- morning the attention of the court was called to the fact that the jurors had not been drawn as provided by law. and, upon this showing, Judge Shaw ordered the case continued until the January term, when it wil come up on another bill of indictment. It is said that the commissioners of Guilford county have not drawn jur ies as provided by law for years. The statute provides that the names of all free-holders shall be placed in a sin gle box, from which a sufficient num ber of names to constitute a jury shall be drawn indiscriminately. Instead of doing this the commissioners of that county have been in the habit of plac ing the names of the free-holders in each township in a separate box, thus insuring a representative jury from all the townships. If the Dispatch mistakes not the system of drawing juries for David son court is he same as the one here tofore in vogue in Guilford and our purpose for printing this article is to cal the attention of the county com missioners to the fact that Judge Shaw holds that this system is not a legal one. The case referred to in the Guilford court had been on trial'for two days, when the court ruled as above and now the entire trial is to be gone over again. Our commission- (TS should have the county attorney investigate the law and thus prevent an occurrence like that of the Guil ford case in our courts. Mr. Alderman a Winner. A Greensboro photographer, Mr‘S. L. Alderman won many honors at the Photographer’s Convention in Raleigh this week. He was elected second vice- president and bore off two of the hand- some prizes. In Class A., three pic tures, portraits on figures, 13 inches or larger,“he won the second prize a sil ver medal. In Class C., twelve Fbr- traist cabinet size, he won first prize, a gold medal This latter was the most sought after prize in the whole lot. C. E. Cheyne, of Hampton, Va, giving Mr. Alderman a close race Both ex hibits were fine. The Raleigh Post says of Mr Alderman: “Mr. S L. Alderman, of Greensboro, one of the vice-presidents of the asso ciation and one of the very best pho tographers in the country, bore off two of the handsome prizes, one gold and one silver medal Mr. Alderman possesses a very fine sense of the ar tistic, watches for the best expression and catches the most striking pose. Then, finishing his work in best style of the art, he cannot fail to be a win ner. One of his pictures, especially, vas perhaps the subject of more favor able argument than any in the com petition.” The Association will meet next year in Danville RICHMOND LINK SAUSAGE 12 12 cents per pound.

Adjutant General Forwards the Necessary Papers—Obstacles Overcome in Secur ing the Consent of th© Authorities— About Seventy-five Names Enrolled—In structions from the Adjutant General to be Complied with at once. Mr. W. P Mangum Turner, who has been active in the efforts to have a mil itary company organized here, has re ceived the following letter from Ad jutant general B. S. Royster: “State of North Carolina, “Office Adjutant General, “Raleigh, Oct. 31, 1901. “Mr. W P Mangum Turner, Greensboro N C: “Sir:—I have the honor to enclose herewith application for company or ganization and enlistment roll in dupli cate His Excellency the Governor, has directed me to’ authorize the organiza tion of a military company at your place You will, therefore fill up and return to this office the application for company organization with one copy of the enlistment roll, together with letters of recommendation from promi nent citizens of your city recommend ing the officers who may be elected by the company as suitable to discharge the duties of their respective offices. When these papers are received gen eral orders will be published at once accepting the company into the State Guard and assigning it to one of the regiments. “Very Respectfully, “B. S. ROYSTER, “Adjutant General.” There was at first very little encour agement given by the State authorities to those who wanted Greensboro to have a military company, the plea of economy being put up. But the Greens boro people who were most interested kept hammering away on their project by getting influential men to write in behalf of 'the scheme with the result as described above in Adjutant Gen- j^al Royster’s letter About seventy- five names have "been enrolled. The directions in the Adjutant General’s letter will be complied with at once. r First Brick Laid. I vhe first brick on the power house idr iae Greensboro Electric Company, was laid this morning, and Manager Barr tells The Telegram that the work will be pushed from now until comple tion. The track laying will not be commenced until after the power house is finished and in operation. The boilers were shipped from the factory today. Deaths Yesterday. Special to The Telegram. High Point, N. C., Nov 1—The 13- year-old daughter of Mr and Mrs. Il B Strickland died here yesterday of fever Her remains were carried to Ebenezer for interment this morning. Mr. Hendricks, father of Sheriff Hen dricks, died at his home yesterday near Springfield church. He was. one of Randolph’s aged and respected citi zens, Wins Third Money. Mr. Garland Daniel spent yesterday afternoon at the races in Winston. His horse, Queen Bess, won third money in the 2:30 trotting race. Yesterday was the closing day of the Forsyth county fair, and the Winston papers say it was the most succesful in the history of the association. Par ties from Greensboro who attended say that the poultry exhibits were especial ly good. Large crowds attended. Did Not Sign the Letter. A good joke on himself is being told today by one of the Good Roads en thusiasts of Greensboro He wrote to a friend :n another town, who is also a believer in good roads, asking him to go to Winston today and tel'ing him that th 3 trip would not cost him a cent. The joke comes in that when not hearing from him friend, the gen tleman in question began to think about it and then remembered that the had not signed the letter at all .and so of course his friend did not knov who wrote it. Appointment Gives Satisfaction. The appointment of Hon F. I. Os borne ,of Charlotte, to the bench of the Court of Private Land Claims, seems to meet the approval of the Republi cans in Greensboro It is said that the appointment is due not so much to Senator Pritchard’s support as to the fact that Mr. Osborne volunteered to defend the impeached Justices of the Supreme Court. Went Hunting. Today the first of NovembZ . is the beginning of the bird hunt! season in North Carolina. A ndinber of Greensboro people availed themselves of the opportunity, to take a day off and hunt the wary quail. The hand of fate is usually clenched. MR. JOIIN R. WEBSTER. Kind Words for Greensboro in Ills Paper This Week. Mr. John R. Webster, Editor of Webster’s Weekly, was in the city last week. He seldom comes to Greensboro without having something nice to say in his paper about the Gate City. We make a few extracts from his paper this week: GAVE HIM A TALKING. Attorney Gilmore Threatens to Abandon Howard’s Case. Mr Gilmore, attorney for the gold brickers, had a plain talk with How- ard, the old miner, yesterday. Since the failure to escape, Howard has been very abusive, cursing everybody that has, anything to do with him. Mr. Gilmore plainly told him that if he did not behave better and act more like a gentleman he would leave him ti his own devices. Howard, while a surely, quarrelsome man, does not want to lose the services of his attor ney, and will doubtless behave better than in the past two days. THE NORMAL AND INDUSTRIAL. We had the pleasure of looking in uopji the State Normal and Industrial College in Greensboro last week. We found the institution crowded with bright faced, happy and earnest young women, representing every section of the State, and all the religious denomi nations, and all apparently bent on making the most of their opportunities. If it were possible for all the people of the State or a majority of them, to visit this college and see its prac tical workings ,it would be beyond; the power of any of its enemies to do it harm. The faculty is composed of teach ers of ability and character. They are devoted to their work and have no higher ambition than to train the pupils committed to their care for lives of usefulness All the teachers are active church members and by pre cept and example point the way to the only real happiness in life—obbedience’ to the revealed will of the Eternal. Their gream aim is to develop charact er. Such should be the obpect of all teaching Education is not the chief end of life. It is a means to an end To see things in their right relation, to profit by the experience and wisdom of others, to make the most of one’s self, are prime objects of education Dr. Chas. D McIver, president of this institution is the right man for the place He possesses in the right-pro portions scholarly attainments, execu tive ability, kinddiness of heart, tire less energy and old fashioned sense. To him more than any dozen men in the State are the people indebted for the establishment of the college. He aroused them to the necessity of doing something for the girls of North Car- 'Jina, wh- ac -'Wcatiop$J wpifor^ '’ • « been overlooked in the ■ strenuous ef forts made to reach all the boys. He did not ask that less be done for the latter, but insisted that justice be done the former. Educate the boy, he proclaimed, and you have done well but when you educate the girl you have done more. The boy may hide his light under a bushel, may not im part his knowledge to others, may be a selfish- money getter; but the girl never. An educated mother will mul tiply herself manyfold in the minds and hearts of her children. So with the women who choose teaching as their 1 ife work Whateyer education does for the man in increasing his useful ness to society it does much more for the woman. GREENSBORO AND ITS ADVANC ING PROSPERITY. Whilst over in Greensboro last week we met Hon. Chas M Stedman, who for the past four or five years has made that city his home. He was in splendid health and spirits and his eu logies. on Greensboro, its people and its prospective future, were well worthy of interest We asked him, ‘Why do you like the city of Greensboro so greatly?” “Because,” said he, ‘it represents tie ideas and best traditions of North Carolina as I cherish them and as I learned them in my boyhood and early manhood. Greensboro is a typical North Carolina city Its inhabitants are singularly free from vulgar osten tation and parade Simplicity marks their conduct. The stranger is greet- td here with genuine and sincere kind ness and meets on all sides a hospitali ty which charms and delights him” Whilst speaking of the rapid ad vance being made in the business of the city he said: “But I will tell you the most important business establish ment in the City of Greensboro. It is the Keeley Institute” Continuing the interview, Major Stedman paid a high tribute .to the work of Keeley His Reason Impaired. Alfred King, ■ seventy year old white man was ked in the county jail because 0 fimpaired reason. This third person now confined in Guilford ajil because of impaired reason. This is not the first time King has been weak in his upper story. He has pre viously been in the asylum., and was only recently released from its con finement apparently restored to his right mind. His brother states that he missed him several days and when he found him he was wading up and down Buffalo Creek, attired in the garb given him by his creator, and hav ing. in his hands turnips and onions with which he said he was baiting fish. This morning when he dressel in -jail, he put on his clothes wrongside out, and left off his socks. When asked by the turnkey why he did not put them on he answered that they didn’t wear them in heaven and he was not going to wear them here. He seems to be daft on the subject of religion. Cliureli Dedicated. The recently completed Methodist Protestant church at Gibosnville, was dedicated last Sunday morning, the dedicatory sermon being preached by Rev W. W. Davidson, of New Haven, Conn. This church is a part of the work of Rev W L Harris, of this city SHORT LOCALS.

The exhibit of Green, boro carpets at the State Fair received a gold me dal. The exhibit was made by the Southern Import and Commission Com pany, of this city. November started off today with weather seemingly borrowed from next Spring. The birds were warbling in the tree tops, and all nature smiled as though she thought summertime had returned. An important meeting of the South- side Hose Company will be held to- night at 7:30 All are requested to be present. All ladies interested in the Company are also invited as a matter will come up in which their aid will be asked.

Two handsome carpets were cut for the Blue Ridge Inn at Mt. Airy yes terday afternoon on the floors of the Southern Import and Commission Company. The carpets were velvet carpets, one for the parlor and one for the hallway. In the hallway there were eighty-one cuts and forty match es and the entire job was done with a total loss of twenty-two inches of car peting. The carpet was ordered in a roll and cut here and there remained but the twenty-two inches. The condition of Dr. F. H. Wood, whose illness was mentioned several days ago, is much improved AFTER NINE YEARS. Young Man Must Serve Out His Old Seiitciicc. Raleigh Times. Deputy Sheriff Harward, of Durham, ast evening carried Walter Daniels a young white man arrested here, back to Durham. Daniels is accused of escap ing from the Durham work house nine years ago. Deputy Separk arrested him here. When Daniels was a. mere boy he was convicted of taking two watches from a Durham store and sen tenced for one year. He made his es cape after serving three months. The Durham Herald this morning says of the case: “Daniels said that when he left here he went to the home of some friends in Wake county and remained there for a short time He then went Ral eigh. When war was declared against Spain in 1898 he went to Norfolk and enlisted in the marine corps, serving through the war and receiving an hon orable discharge Since the war he has been in Raleigh, assisting his mother in conducting a store and looking after her support. He is the only child and the dependence of his mother for a living. When arrested yesterday he did not deny his identity and acknow ledged that he escaped from the work house here, saying that he guessed it was best to go back and serve his time He said yesterday afternoon that he was a boy, having just donned long pants when he entered the store and said that it wa^the only- trouble he was ever in in his life. “All who have looked into the case are of the opinion that it is one where the Governor would be doing nothing more than his duty if he was to grant the young man pardon and let him go back to the support of his mother. He has suffered enough.” Gave Bond for His Appearance. Mr. C H Roney, formerly postmaster at Gibbsonville, but who was removed at the last term of Federal court here, charged with making false returns of the business, was in Greensboro yes terday and gave bond for his appea- ance at th '■ next term of Federal court held in this city Complaints fiad been lodged against Rony several times before his removal and it is alleged that he was the most incompetent postmaster in this section. He is said to frequently have been too drunk to attend to the duties of the office. A lady succeeds him. In connection with the Roney case it is said that one of Guilford’s postmasters cannot read, and the mail addressed to that office is dumped into a large box and the patrons of the office pick it ever. A Pleasant Evening. A pleasant evening was spent last night by a large number of people at Centenary church and as a result a neat sum was realized. The program with a few minor changes, was, carried out as printed in yesterday’s Tele gram. A Long Dry Spell. Mr W I. Young, who returned yes terday afternoon from a trip through several Southern states also visited Mexico.

Yesterday’s Charlotte Observer says through Davidson College Correspon dent: “Every copy of Shakespeare’s “Macbeth” has been out of the library for the last two weeks, and a great many others called for. This is in an ticipation of Mr. Henry Austin Clapp’s lecture which will be given here to morrow evening in the Y M C. A hall If the lecture is one half as interesting as the two preceding ones by Mr Clapp the audience wil be more, than repaid for time and money.” AT THE GRAND TOMORROW NIGHT The State Normal and Greensboro Female Colleges will be largely repre sented at the Grand tomorrow night at the rendition of “King Lear” by Mr. Henry Austin Clapp. OUR ADVERTISERS.

John Blue,- president of the Aberdeen and Rockfish Railroad, who was in Raleigh this week, says that he is pre paring for a short extension of his road and will have it soon completed to Hope Mills, a flourishing mill town ill Cumberland counnty, on the Atlan tic Coast Line Railway. It runs through a fine country and has caused the building of the flourish ing town of Raeford. Mr, Blue’s road is now forty miles long. He started building it in 1889 and has built it on year by year, till he has one of the best pieces of property in North Caro lina He says that the lumber busi ness has been very good this year. W’eldon Special to Raleigh News and Observer, 31st: This has been the greatest day in the history of the Wel don Fair. Major Emery, president off the Fair, said this evening he had never before seen so large a crowd at the Fair., There were special trains from every direction and these, besides the regular trains were loaded down. Governor Aycock spoke at the appoint ed hour, but his voice could not be heard to the outskirts of the crowd, while hundreds of people sauntered about the grounds having given up the effort to get near enough to hear. One of the most exciting features of the 'day was the arerst of fakirs. Yesterday the Midway besides the regular, shows, was lined from one end to the other with fakirs running gambling tables. Today they attempt ed to work the same racket. As this is a plain violation of the State law, Justice of the Peace House, having se cured his witnesses, attempted at one fell swoop to capture the whole gang. He succeeded in capturing a number, but the rest took alarm and fled.
