In advertising the merits of some tobacco securities as an investment, quotes James 11 Duke as saying: "War times and other periods of general depression have never result ed unfavorably for the tobacco Indus try. In fact, at the time of the Cleveland depression, there was an actual boom in the tobacco Industry in this country. If this Is true, and certainly Mr Duke should be competent to speak by the card, it presents a curious sidelight on the development of a habit in the time of adversity or the solace that man finds in tobacco in periods of trouble. That Mr. Duke Is correct would seem to be borne nut by the observa tions of the present writer.

One hundred years ago Napoleon returned from Elba, the battle of Waterloo was fought and trousers were Introduced Into polite society at the capitals of western Europe. When powdered wigs disappeared, save from the cranium of lawyers In court, and the wearing of high hats became general (the historians of fashion say), it quickly became obivious that some appropriate change must also be made at the other end of the male figure. Knee breeches and silk stockings did not correspond with the stovepipes. So the reformers set themselves to work to devise nether garments congruous with the new headpieces. The result was pantaloons as we know them. And the Duke of Wellington had the moral courage to don the strange things in London before they were regarded there as strictly en regie, The centenary of trousers should he commemorated by American men in 1915 with such ceremonious ob servances as may be deemed most suitable.

ANTI-JUG LAW iOOI, SAYS DAVIS Xo All TemiM'Mmc Folks Asked For Hut Ghul of Compromise. "No, the General Assembly did not give us what we asked for," said Su perintendent R. L. Davis of the North Carolina Anti-Saloon League, refer ring to the liquor bill passed by the House last week. "Nor does the new law, which al lows a person to receive a quart of whiskey or five gallons of beer in fif teen days meet the petitions of thous ands of citizens and the memorials of hundreds of churches and other bodies presented to this Legislature. "However the Anti-Saloon League is glad that the Senate and House agreed on this compromise measure. Through it the State secures legisla tion that will go a long way towards putting an end to the liquor business in North Carolina. "The law is a good one and I have no disposition to agree with any one thinking otherwise. The law, how ever, does not stop the delivery of liquor for beverage purposes and the Anti-Saloon League hereby serves no tice that the fight will be continued until this evil is prohibited. . Grateful to Friends. "I fell grateful to the many friends of the Anti-Saloon League's bill who stood so nobly by the measure. "They put it through the House by an overwhelming majority. Then, too, after the Senate decided to submit it to a vote of the people they refused to concur. This saved the day for a measure that would become effective April 1. "The Senate, however, did not act so nobly. Some of its members play ed politics and thus sacrificed the in terests of the State's citizens. When Semi tors are fully advised as to the desires of a great majority of their constituency, and In some instances instructed, it little becomes them to evade the main issue by voting to submit the question to the people and thus, by indirection, defeat the will of their constituency. Peoiilo llvfor This. "Yes, 1 feel sure that the people prefer to accept the committee s sub stitute bill, effective April 1, to the deal the Senate gave us. That was a vote ou the House bill in August and the law to become effective there after. "Not that we fear carrying the elec tion, but that the benefits would be postponed live months, and the churches and moral forces of the Stale would be engaged in a campaign costing time and money, engendering hard feelings and estranging friend ships. "Fron the vantage ground now gained the Anti-Salonn League will continue its work to exterminate the beverage liquor traffic in State and nation." A Italkan Statesman's Prediction About the V'r.r. To conclude, then, we ran say with certainty that (he Russians and their allies have the best of it, and that this terrible struggle will end in the complete defet of Germany and Austria-Hungary. And hat will be the result? The outcome of the present war may be Conceived thus: First: Russia will expand at the expense of Austria-Hungary, will an nex Ualicia, and will demand from Turkey the occupation of Constant! nople and a part of Asia Minor. Second: France will regain her two former provinces of Alsace and Lorraine. Third: Kngland will he benefitted by gaining possession of the German colonies, as well as a part of Asia Minor. Fourth: Belgium will receive as recompense for her stoic reslMence the Duchy of Luxemburg. Fifth: The two kindred kingdoms of Servla and Montenegro will receive as a reward for a struggle not less stoical , the two Austrian provinces peopled by Serb races. Sixth: Italy as a reward for her neutrality would receive the province of Austria-Hungary inhabited by Itnl ians. Seventh: Koumanla for the same reason would receive Ilukovlna, an Austrian province peopled largely by Rumanians. As to-Turkey, which has been drag ged Into the war by German political Intrigue, she will be erased from the map as an independent country. It will he the same with Albania; for her inhahilants, who are in a stale of perpetual anarchy, cannot long exist as an independent people. This, then. Is my view of the con d it ions that will be Imposed upon the conquered. Perhaps changes may be even greater; for It is possible that Austria-Hungary, like Turkey, may cease to exist n: an independent em pire. Nor is it inconceivable thai certain provinces might be snatched from Germany, as for example Ger man Poland.

O IT LAW ARRESTED Sl'XDAY. .Man Who killed Sh riff of Brunswick County Was Found and Threatened ly latins From Revenue 4'nlter. Wilmington Dispatch, 7th. Jesse P. Walker, aged 35, who was outlawed soon after his escape from jail at Somliport, where he was await ing trial for the murder of Jackson Stanlad of Itrunswick, six years ago, and for whose capture dead or alive there was a reward of 2o0, was tak en in custody here this afternoon by six police and county officers work ing under direction of Justice George Harriss, to whom the presence in the city of the desperado was first report ed. W alker was overpowered before he could offer'any resistance. With Walker when he was captur ed was bis brother-in-law, Frank Leo nard, at hose house the murder of Sheriff Stanland occurred, on the night of November 29, 190$, when a posse went to arrest Walker for store breaking. Young Leonard is mate on a government launch that tends a dredge and Walker stayed aboard the boat with him last night. Walker was induced to leave the boat by a clever ruse engineered by Magistrate Harriss. Word was got to Leonard that if they did not leave the launch, the guns of the roast guard Seminole, lying nearby, would be trained on her. Prepared for Battle. With his hands in his hip pockets, the right on a 45 Colts revolver and the left on a 32 automatic blue steel Colts, apparently ready to mow down anybody who would make a move to take him in custody, Walker stepped haughtily from the launch accompa nied by his brother-in-law. Kvidenl ly looking only for blue coats, Walker paid no attention to Officers Kelly. Jones, Coleman, George, Godwin and Davis in pluln clothes and stationed a short distance from each along the route it was known Walker would have to come in leaving the boat. The officers closed in on him with utmost precision, two catching his arms while others threw pistols in his face and told him any resistance meant death. Besides two revolvers, Walker had a large quantity ot cartridges, a ra zor, several knives and two stotM door keys of hit own make. He said that love for hi wife and children brought him hack. I Oh'JH'nV29.'l!ln! Walker broke jail at Southport.

Including those found, had been rescued alive, X bodies had been recovered and 30 or more unaccounted for. Rescue parties entertain little hope that the missing men are alive. Neither of the rescued parties knew of the presence of the others in the nearby workings. That some of the men had prepare! to meet death was evidenced by note written by Hugh Mc.Mllan, which said : Ail hoping that the rescuers will reach us in time and all praying to our Saviour that such will happen trusting to God that the air will las until they reach us, I am writing to my wife Mary to bring up the kiddies loving their Saviour as I am now How our ins creep up in our faces in a !(;,". like thl.t.

Fleet, Though Making; Steady Prog ress in the Dardanelles, Xot Hav ing Things All Their Own Way. London Dispatch, March 8th. The British and French ships have battered their way a step nearer to Constantinople, not, however, without damage to the ships engaged, and the battle for the Dardanelles continues. More Turkish forts on the Asiatic ide have been silenced according to statement by the British Admiralty, but the Turks are making a terrific resistance and shells from their German-made guns have found more than one mark on the besieging craft. This struggle for the gateway of the Ottoman Capital is the big feature of the war news and closely linked with is the sustained excitement in Greece incident to the resignation of the Cabinet of M. Venizoleos, who, deeming Greece's entry into the hos tilities on the side of the Triple En tente imperative, could not agree with his king and resigned. From the number of ships engaged and the size and range of the guns, the battle of the Dardanelles is un like anything In history, according to naval experts. At 21,000 yards the huge battleship Queen Elizabeth of the British squadron, assisted by smaller ships, still is hurling shells across the Gallipoli Peninsula into the Turkish strongholds on the Asi atic shore. The Admiralty statement carries the operations through Sun day and admits that the Turks not on ly scored three minor hits on the Queen Elizabeth, but that most of ships inside the straits, both French mid British, were struck. None was sunk and there were no casualties The Turkish forts Rumili Medjidleh Tabi-i and Han:ldieh-I-Tabla facing I lie Asiatic snore were silenced as was the Mount Dnrdnnus battery fur ther south. The Turkish casualties tie not known.

Armed with an automatic shotgun Monroe Phillips, a real estate and timber dealer, ran amuck in the bus- hies district here today, killed five citizens, wounded 32 iind was himself shot dead. Of the wounded Gunner Tolmos, a bank collector, and Ernest McDonald probably will die. I One has since died, making six in all.) The dead are: Harry F. Dtinwoody lirominent attorney. William M.

It was at the business hour of the day that Phillips, carrying a shotgun entered the office of Harry F. Dun woodv, a lawyer, against whom he is said io hava cherished ill feeling, and killed him. Phillips then shot Albert M. Way, who was in Dunwoody's of fice. Although badly wounded Way will probably recover. Walking calmly from the ofnee, Phillips faced a crowd which had been attracted by the firing. Without a word he suddenly began shooting into the throng; and a wild stampede for shelter followed. R. M. Deaver, a policeman, was killed when he at templed to arrest (he crazed man. Phillips continued lo fire on every body in sinhl until he was shot down by K. C. Butts, an attorney, more lhan half an hour after Diinwoody had been killed. Butts had been wounded before he killed Phillips. The wounded were taken lo the local hospital, every ward being filled and every physician in the city was called to dress the wounds. Phillips had been a resilient of Brunswick about twelve years and had been Involved in considerable lit igation in local courts. I: was stated he recently lost considerable money in r.'al estate transactions and hail had dealir.ES with Mr. Dunwooily. He owned several tracts of laud near Macon. Mr. Dunwoody was one of the most prominent ciii?ens of Brunswick. He at one lime was mayor and also had served in I he Georgia legislature as a Representative and a Slate Senator.

Moody. SERIOUS IX MEXICO CITY. More Tmulile Falls on President Wil son on Account of Famine in City. Washington Dispatch, March 7th. Dispatches from the Brazilian Min ister in Mexico City received tonight indicated that conditions in the Capi tal are unchanged, that the populace still fears the effects of the famine and dangers of possible rioting should General Obregon's forces evacuate. High officials in the American gov ernment described the situation as se rious but not hopeless. No word came from Vera Cruz as to General Carranza's attitude, but further rep resentations have been made of such an urgent character that officials here confidently expect Carranza to take steps to improve conditions. Two communications hae been sent to American Consul Silliam at Vera Cruz for presentation to Car ranza. Both are phrased in strong terms, pointing out the serious conse quences that might ensue if foreign ers were injured in any rioting in the Capital, or if they were unable 1o get food or supplies. There have been indications in the last 24 hours that General Carranza might instruct Gen eral Obregon to permit the Interna tional Relief Committee to take charge of the situation. Element of Danger. An element of much danger has arisen, however, in the rumored fric tion between Obregon and Carranza. It is known that Obregon was irri tated when Carranza revoked the tax levied by Obregon on foreigners re cently and since that time, official dispatches say, anti-foreign senti ment has been fostered, if not inspir ed by Obregon himself. A possibility that General Villa might change his military campaign temporarily from its northward direction and turn his entire attention to re-capturing Mexi co City was locked on In some official quarters as a possible solution of the situation, since such a move if suc cessful would give uninterrupted pas sage for supplies from the American border by rail. WlngMtc Letter. Correspondence of The Journal. Wlngate, March 8. Mr. Thoina Beddlngfield and family of Wake county arrived here Saturday on a visit to the home of Mrs. Bedding field's parents. Mr. and Mrs W. M. . Terry. I The entertainment given in the auditorium of the Wingate academy Saturday evening by the Browning Literary Society was a decided suc cess. The exercises were highly en tertaining and reflected much credit on the part of the participants. Miss Bessie Marsh of Fayettevill is visiting Miss Carolina Webster, one of (he tachcrs in the Wingate High School. Her friends will he glad to know that the condition of Mrs. liunyan Gadilv is till improving Friday, the 5th day of March, 1915, may go on record as the Rainy Friday for it rained the entire 21 hours. Friday seems to be full of historical and legendary incidents and supersU tious notions. The ancient Saxons and Romans worMiiped Venus, the goddess of of love and beauty. On Friday, the Roman Catholics observe the day as a day of absiinece or en tire lasting. As long ago as the writer ran remember and perhaps hundreds of years before there has been superstitious ideas connected with this day. Nor or these notions finally dead yet. Within the memory of many of the people it was consid ered nn unlucky day, among ihe best and most Intelligent class. These would not begin a piece of work on Friday. If you began planting a field on Friday you would have bad lurk with the crop, etc. I expect some of my older friends still have some of these old notions clinging to Ihrni, for these iniperssions made up on our minds in ciniitiiood can scarcely be eradicated. There was a Blue Friday" and "The cold Fri day." The latter was in January, 1835, a little over K0 years ago, so says tradition. Webster, In his old Blue Back says: Friday is jmt as lucky as any other day, and so I be lieve. Mr. Wiley Hefner spent Saturday afternoon and Sunday among friends in Charlotte. Mr. F. W.
