How to With Tramps New York, Sept. 20—A noticeable effect of the approach of cold weather j is the exodus of tramps. The park j benches are being deserter! and the' railroads will soon be obliged to deal I with the "hobo" problem. The running out of New York has seconded the decision of the rcceut conference of railway boards at Min neapolis that the tramp evil is the most serious in railroad operation to-' day, and they have referred the mat-' ter to their respective chiefs of police. l These chiefs will therefore gather in | this city in a few days to discuss ways j and means of meeting the situation. | The New York Central has made a • beginning of dealing with the tramp | pest by stationing a hundred men of: tried strength and courage on its main j line between here and Albany to keep' tramps from boarding trains and com mitting depredations. The youths are sworn as special officers and were em powered to arraign their prisoners as vaagrants. The New York Central estimated that it loses $20,000 yearly in freight stolen or destroyed by tramps in its Eleventh avenue yards. County Commissioners Win Suit Against Treasurer Winston-Salem, N. C., Sent. 21.—The jury in the case of the county commis sioners vs. Ex-County Treasurer 11. L. Biggins yesterday afternoon returned a veridct in favor of the commission ers.

The amount involved was 5455.64 and the jury not only gave the commissioners the full amount, but also interest on the principal at the rate of 12 per cent from December 1, 1900.

Bonding Company Still After Him Several of Cases Interest Tried at Winston-Salem Court —Other News. Winston-Salem, N. C., Sept. 20. — According to Mr. Thomas, traveling agcut of the Virginia Urewing Compa ny. who has been here for some days, his company has not heard a word from W. H. Drinkard, who misappro priated several thousand dollars of the firm s money while agent at this place. Mr. Thomas says his company will not prosecute Drinkard, but leave the matter entirely in the hands of the company which bonded him, and which has been called upon to make good the shortage. A letter was received here a few days ago from the aged father of Drinkard, in Virginia, making inquir ies concerning him, stating in the let ter that he had heard nothing from Drinkard since he left Winston. It seems that the absconding manager covered his tracks well, but it is the general opinion that he will be eaptur ed sooner or later, provided he did not make settlement with the bonding company, as some seem to think he will do. Yesterday Recorder J. A. Griffith called the city police force before him and gave them a lecture on their du ties as officers. Among other things, the recorder instructed the officers to re-arrest all persons who forfeit bonds in his court. Winston's Fish Market. The city is now erecting an ideal fish market building immediately in the rear 01' the meat market, which is in the municipal building. The new j building is to be of brick and every j arrangement will be made as to clean liness and conveniences. All meats in the city are sold from the central market and under the direct super vision of the city market clerk. In this way the consumers are assured of receiving wholesome meats. I After consuming four days in the superior court the case of Tise vs. Whitakcr-llarvey Company, contest ing the right of the defendants to close up an alley, came to an abrupt end yesterday when Judge Moore or dered a non-suit taken on the ground that the plaintiff had not made out a case. i Notice of appeal to the supreme 1 court was given. The case has already, been in the supreme court. In the court yesterday the case of F. F. Kerner vs. Manchester Assur ance Company, involving $3OO, was taken and disposed of, the insurance j company winning. From the evidence it seems that a policy on a house was taken out in the name of Kerner Bros. \ and later the plaintiff alleges that he notified the agent through the mails to change the policy to F. F. Ker ner. The agent, however, claims that he did not receive such notice. A few, months the house was destroyed and J the company refused to pay the policy I to F. F. Kerner, who had taken over the business of Kerner Bros. Hence the suit. ! The suit of the county commission ers vs. ex-Treasurer H. L. Riggins is now being tried. The amount involv ed is something over $lOO. During his last year as treasurer the commission ers allowed Riggins only one and a half per cent, on the funds passing through his hands, while the treasur er claims that he was entitled to two per cent, as he had received during the other years of his tenure in of fice. Neither side would give in and the suit was instituted. Eight lawyers are engaged as counsel, three by the county and five by the ex-treasurer. Girl Said To !

The first proposals for locomotives in the United States were issued by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company onJanuary 4, 1831. The price guaran on January 4, 1831. The price guaran s4,ooo. The speciffcaticns required that it should burn coal or coke and consume its own smoke. It was not to exceed three and one half tons in weight, and it was required to be jKjwerful enough to draw on a level road 15 tons, inclusive of the weight of the wagons, at a speed of 15 miles an hour. This was only about seventy-six years ago, and a comparison between the locomotive of 1831 with the elec tric locomotive, No. COOO, produced by the General Electric Company for the New York Central Railroad, the most powerful electric locomotive in the world, illustrates the advance in trans portation appliances. On English railroads locomotives had been in use before 1831, but the Baltimore and Ohio was the experi mental station of the American rail road. It was then believed that the locomotive could not overcome grades and curves so the road was made as straight as possible. The new electric locomotive, which engineers make so bold as to claim will ultimately take the place of the steam locomotive, developes greater speed, greater hauling powers, and greater ease in handling and controll ing than any other type of locomotive. The Great Change. From the Chicago News. "I tell you, mum," remarked Sandy | Picks, as he dipped up the straw-! berries and cream, "when you are I leading the hobo life you have to keep up with the times." "Is that so, my poor man?" said the sympatheic housewife. "Yes, indeed, mum; why, dis time last year I used to say I came from San Francisco, and people used to give me handouts 'cause they thought I was an earthquake sufferer. Now, if I should forget and say I came from San Francisco dey would be lia ble to hand me over to de police for being an escaped grafter." Looked Like It. From the Woman's Home Companion. The littlest girl in the class was reading laboriously. "See Mary and tho lamb," Bho read slowly. "Does Mary love the lamb, buttonhook?" "Why do you teay buttonhook?" asked the teacher. "Picture of a buttonhook here," re plied the child, pointing triumphantly to the interogation point. CORPORATION COM. SSOES ORDER TO TWO RAILROADS I l Roads Are Requested to Show Cause Why Im provements At Hickory Should Not be Made Ac- 1 cording to Order. - Order is Sequel to Recent | Trouble Between Citizens And Roads—Prominent Couple to Wed—lmportant Case Argued. Raleigh, Sept. 20. —An order is made by the corporation commission direct ing that the Carolina and Northwest ern and the Southern Hallway compa nies within ten days show cause why the improvements in the depot facili ties and trackage at Hickory, ordered sometime ago by the commission, should not be installed at once. The order is a sequel to the recent trouble between the railroad compa nies and the citizens of Hickory, when unknown parties tore up a section of objectionable track at the Carolina and Northwestern and a company of citizens gathered the next day and forbade workmen to relay the tract:. There had been an order by the com mission for all track on the north side of the depot to be moved to the south side and this track tho company was trying to relay was on the south side. The order signed last night lor ihs ( commission to show cause has t(/do especially with this adjustment of th>i ! track and its concentration on the 1 north side of the depot. There is other work in connection with the depot improvements ordered that will require six months more to I complete, including a considerable sub-, way that will have to be constructed. Marriage Announcement. Friends have received invitations for the marriage of Mr. Allen J. Barwick, I statistical clerk of the state depart ment of public instruction, and Miss Anna Mary Killigan, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. L. Killigan, of Newton, N. C. The marriage will be at the | country home of Mr. Killian on Octo -1 berl, and Mr. and Mrs. Barwick will ! be at home in Raleigh after October ! 15th. New Companies. A charter is issued for the Norris- Vynes Lumber Company, of North Wilkesboro, at a capital of $lOO,OOO, by J. B. Norris, Mrs. Mary D. Norris, Leonard Vyne and Lula V. Vyne. Another charter is to the Bank of Canton, capital $l. r >,ooo authorized, and $7,000 subscribed, by J. W. Reed, Aldeu Howell and G. W. Harrison. Auditorium Talk. The directors of the Raleigh chamber of commerce, under the leadership of its new president. Col. Chas. E. John son, have adopted a resolution endors ing the plan of converting the present municipal building into an auditorium with municipal offices and moving the city market and city prison to some less prominent place. The directors urge the members of the chamber and citizens generally to vote for the $lOO,- 000 bond isue for the auditorium on the 26th- instant and thereby assure an au ditorium. This is to be a hard fight and the impression prevails largely that the bond issue will be lost. There is considerable talk here "on Hie quiet" that there is not such a great need here for larger auditorium facilities after all and that it is by no means certain that the state political conven tions would come here even if the big auditorium was provided. In fact, that these state conventions arc state events that towns in the state other than the state capital can enjoy rightfully while legislatures and nu merous other state events for which Raleigh is well prepared come here necessarily. Important Case Argutd. The most important case argued in the supreme court in connection with the appeals from the Fourth Dis trict, concluded today, was Collie vs. Commissioners of Franklin county, the purpose of the case being to test the right of commissioners of a county to levy a tax as "necessary expense" under the state constitu tion for the maintenance of public schools for four months. State Su perintendent J. Y. Joyner some months ago wrote the county boards of education urging them to procure such a tax levy in spite of the ruling of the supreme court some years ago in the noted Barksdale case that such a tax was not constitutional, in that it was not for a "necessary expense." The contention now Is that this is as necessary an expense on the county as any other object of taxation. So that the present supreme court is now asked to reverse the old ruling in the Barksdale case. Appearing for the plaintiff and against the levy ot a tax for such a- purpose is W. 11. Ruffin as counsel for Collie. Coun sel for the Franklin commissioners and for the state in support of the right to impose such a tax as ex- Governor Chas. B. Aycock, F. S. Spruill and R. B. White. Governor Aycock was added to the counsel by the state department of education, State Supt. Joyner being especially anxious to win this suit. Tliq chamber of commerce has ap pointed a special cemmitee to aid in preliminary arrangements for the postmasters convention to be held here Oct. 1Z and ICth. Every effort will be made to make the convention thoroughly successful and enjoyable. There will have to be special pro vision for homes, too, since the state fair will be in progress and the city crowded with visitors. This will be an especially eventful week in Raleigh with the state fair in full swing, W. J. Bryan's visit, the laying of the corner stone of the Grand Lodge Masonic Temple, the meeting of North Carolina Division Confederate Veterans, the agricultur al society, the State Literary Society and a variety of other events in ad dition to the state fair routine. Supt. Coppedge of Richmond coun ty, writes the state department of education that a local tax election is carried ut Hoffman. A new rural library is allowed for Jones county. Raleigh, Sept. 21.—Wake Superior Court will convene Monday for a two weeks criminal term and one of the first cases that will be called will be the famous Rowland case, in which Dr. D. S. Rowland and Mrs. Lillian Row land are charged with poisoning Mrs. Rowland's former husband, C. R. Strange. The case will be called Monday merely for the purpose of ordering a special venire from which to make up the jury when the regular trial be gins on the following Monday, Septem ber 30. That is, this is the date agreed on i for the trial. : There is some talk of an effort on the part of the defense to have the case moved to some other county, but this Is not generally credited. The only reason for such a move would be to get the case out from under the influ ence of the local brotherhood of engi neers and conductors, who have taken au active interest in the prosecution. On the other hand, this can but be largely counteracted by the general popularity cf Dr. Rowland hereabouts, as it is a fact ithat he has many friends who refuse to entertain any idea of his guilt, declaring him to be the victim of peculiar circumstances. Two Raleigh Lawyers, Col. J. C. L. Harris and Chas. 1). Wildes had a per sonal encounter last evening in the court of Justice Chas. Separks in which Col. Harris slapped Mr. Wildes in tho face three times and was still striking ! him when associate counsel .and others | interfered and held the two men apart. Mr. B. C. Beckwith had his wrist bml ly wrenched in trying to hold Harris off of Wildes, Beckwith being of coun sel with Wilde's in opposing efforts by Hnrris to have a case postponed. Wildes had intimated that Col. Har ris had tampered with his witnesses. The case against Walter Mcßae, col ored, charged with highway robbery. Col. Harris carried his point in having the case postponed. Justice Separks is considering what punishment he will deal out to the lawyers for the affray in his court. North Carolina Day In Public Schools Raleigh, Sept. 21. —A suggestive pro gram for the observance cf North Caro lina day in the public schools of the State is being prepared in the office of the state superintendent of public instruction and will be issued at once. The subject this year will be Scotch- Irish Settlements in North Carolina. Settlements in Mecklenburg, Iredell, Lincoln. Gaston, Guilford and Orange counties will be especially treated. North Carolina day is designated as October 12 in the act, but there is au thority to change the date to suit the convenience of any particular schoool. Mt. Aii y Big Market For Apples And Cabbage Mout Airy, N. C., Sept. 21.—Streams of wagons are coming to town daily with apples and cabbage. Testerday cabbage were selling off the wagons ! at $l.lO a crate, which is regarded as very high for this time of the year. The crop is large and will bring the farmers a mint of money this year, as 50 cents a crate is quite a nice fig ure, leaving the grower a good profit.

UNKNOWN TONGUE RELIGION. Preachers Claim to Be Possessed With Divine Power. Greenville, S. C., Sept. 21. —A relig ion known as the "Unknown Tongue" is being preached in a tent in the su burbs of this city by a Georgia fanatic. He preaches along sanely enough for awhile, and presently without warn ing he will branch off into the most unintelligible jargon, reminding one more of a line of linotype pi than of spoken English. The men who are running the meetig claim to be pos sessed of divine power and several people have while attending the meet ings been put in trancs. Women have decided that in case the}' cannot vote, they will cut out the "Stork" proposition. Perfectly proper to take Ilollister's Rocky Mountain Tea. It's good for everything. 35 cents.

Thomas A. Edison, the great American inventor, says "Fully eighty per cent of the illness of mankind comes from eating improper food or too much food; people are inclined to over-in dulge themselves." This is where indi gestion finds its beginning in nearly every case. The stomach can do just so much work and no more, and when you overload it, or when you eat the wrong kind of food, the digestive or gans cannot possibly do the work de manded cf them. It is r.t such times that the stomach needs help; it de mands help, and warns you by head aches, belching, sour stomach, nausea and indigestion. You should attend to this at once by taking something that will actually do the work for the stom ach. Kodol will do this. It is a combi nation of natural digestants and vege table acids and contains the same juices found in a healthy stomach. It is pleasant to take. It digests what you eat. Sold by C. M. Shuford.
