TROOP "A" CAV. WINS
HONORS JT THE FAIR
In the account of the closing of Ca
tawba fair at Hickory Friday the Re
cord of that city says in reference to
Lincolnton Cavalry:
One of the decided atractions of
the fair yesterday was the sham bat
tle between the Hickory and Lincoln
ton cavalry troops, and other con
tests. The sham battle was probably
most enjoyed. Many of the cavalry
men have been in actuM battle, and
some of them have participated in
cavalry formation and actual charges
on the field of practice and they were
able to impart a realism to the man
euvers which thrilled the large
crowd. There were plenty, of small
boys rush out to pick up the empty
shells after each round, and each
horseman had 20 rounds of blanks.
In the contests, Lincolnton won the
mounted tug of war and the mounted
wrestling match and Hickory carried

STATE MAKES LOAN OF
FIVE MILLION DOLLARS
Five million dollars has been bor
rowed from New York bankers at 5.95
per cent, according to Treasurer Ben
jamin R. Lacy, who has been in the
fiancial center for the past few
days, making arrangements for tor
rowing additional money for the State
to continue its building program for
both roads and institutions.
This is the-first time during the
. : nJMin:Dlv4nn ntiH 'tnr
manv months before that time that
the monev market has been in such
condition that it was possible to se
cure loans for less than six per cent,
and those charged with the adminis
tration of the finances are convinced
that this is best token Wiey have
that conditions are rapidly improving.
The money has been borrowed with
out strings and wftl be brought back
to North Carolina, or checked out in
the very near future to pay bills of
the State institutions and the road
Vmiliimr Hpnnrt.ment.
Just what proportion of the five
million loan the different prejects will
get has not yet been woricea out, inn
tnis win oe aone so uinv u v.
institutions and the roads can secure
the money as rapidly as it is needed.
The council of State authorized the
treasurer to go to New York and se
cure the five million dollars on tne
best possible terms, in order that
none of, the work now in progress
will be delayed on account of the lack
of money. These loans like the others
already made since the first of the
i year, are made in lieu of selling bonds
