Efland and Breeze played ball last Attorney To Attempt To Save llie Allens From Electric Gliair Declare Evidence Against Them No Stronger Than in Cases State Comprom ised. Not until after Floyd Allen and Claud Allen haye been sentenced to die will the defense begin its fight to save the Allens from the death chair by going to the Supreme Court of Ap peals. These two men will not be sentenced till after the trial of Victor Allen, one of the members of the gang, which is scheduled for Wythe Circuit Court Sep tember 4. Belief at this time if that the last of the quintette in custody will readily agree to serve twelve years rather than to face a trial at the hands of a jury. It is known that a proposition to plead guilty will be made, and there is no reason to doubt that it will be ac cepted by the defense. Following his sentence, the two men who have been found guilty of murder in the first degree, will be called to the bar and will hear the words which in all likelihood, will send them into eternity Unless the unforeseen hap pens, the men will be sentenced at the September term of the Circuit Court for Wythe county, Judge Waller R. Staples presiding. That the defense will make a last appeal for the men in thp Supreme Courts of Appeals is already known. The basis of that appeal will be largely on the grounds of the insufficiency of the evidence on which they were con- _ victed. The contention will be set up Friday on the Cedar Grove diamondaccepting a verdict of murder ‘ in the second degree on the part of the others—Friel Allen and Sidney Edwards—the State has acknowledged wi^ a score of twenty- and one in favor of Efland, hurrah for the Efland boys.

Among the Small Things An individual may think they are doing a real smart, and thrifty trick when they try to beat an editor out of che small amount due him for sub scription, but really the small things t lat a narrow minded person may be guilty of this is the meanest, and it throws a fierce light upon the little- n ja* of some characters.

Labor Day is to be celebrated on a big scale in Spencer September 2nd. Several weeks about fifty labor organ izations, fraternal orders, commercial and industrial organizations appointed a central committee the arrange for this event. The committee has lit- terally covered to State with invita tions to visit Spencer, September 2. Among the attractions for the day will be a big barbecue, base ball, bal loon ascension, hurdle races, sack races, foot races, reel races and otner amusements, including a grand dis* play of fireworks. A big parade two miles long, reaching from Salisbury to Spencer will be witnessed by seyeral thousand people. A distinct feature of the day in Spencer will be a demonstration in motor plowing. A new plow just in vented by a Spencer man, motor driv en, and cutting a furrow 5 feet wide and and 20 inches deep, will be opera ted for the benefit of the farmers. Magnetizing The Mind (New York Evening Post) Backward pupils converted into star students 'in six months by merely being seated in rooms through whose walls electric currents are conducted, sounds like the incredible prospectus of a get- rich-quick promoter. But we are pointed to Stockholm, where, we are assured, the children in the magnetized room showed an increase in stature of just twice that of those in the un magnetized room, and similar repults in weight and general physical dev^op- ment, weile they averaged 92 per cent, in their intellectual tasks as opposed to 75 per cent, for their competitors. The very least that can be said for this method of improvement is that it beats the scentific managers hollow. If it “makes good” in the tests that ate promised for it in this city, we may expect to see the bricklayer encased in a suit of armor, lined with electrical wiring, and running up his walls with a speed that bends the neck of the observers rapidly backward. Tame in ^pmparison with such a marvel seems the portion of the xeport of the presi dent of the Chicago'Board of Education devoted to the Wacker prizes for beau tifying school rooms, school grounds, vacant lots, and home exteriors. This Western official reioices in the thou sands of children who are employing their leisure hours in planting and caring for trees, shrubbery, and flow ers, and so on, but is compelled to admit that a scheme for reconstruct ing city plans on lines of symmetry is a work, not of years, but of decades, and possibly generations. When the electrical suits are ready, it will be a work, not of decades, nor even of years, but of minutes. Cedar Grove News. (Received to late for last week) Mr. Editiur.I' guess you will think 1 tm dead as I have not written any for several weeks but I have come to life again since the rain. The farmers of this section are buisy cutting and curing tobacco, so you see the boys won’t get lonesome any more for a while. The ice cream supper at Harmoney that was given by the Farmers Union was attended by a large crowd and all report a good time, plenty cream cake and candy. Prof. Jackson came over to Harmoney Nst Sunday to oiffanize a singing which he expects to teach some time in the near futnre. Miss Lessie Heter from near Prospect Hill recently visited Mr. J. A.

Rail- Concerted Strike of road Men. A concerted strike of approximately 150,000 railway conductors and train men, including breakemen, flagmen, yard conductors, and baggage masters on the railroad to make further advance in wages averaging something like 30 per cent of the present wages and ^xAich would add several million dollars a year to the financial burdens of the railroads is brewing on Southern Rail road systems. The order of railway conductors and the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen have been holding conferences on the matter since spring and the demands were formally presented in a com munication to the general manager’s committee of the railroads about four weeks ago. A courteous reply declaring that the demands were unreasonable and that the roads could not consider any advances at the present time wa*> returned. Attention was call&d to the fact that wage increases during the past two years amounted to $4,000,000 a year. Gen. William Booth. At 84, blind and weakened by long illness, Gen, William Booth gave up the fight for life, but just before he lapsed into unconsciousness he spoke these words in talking with his loved ones of God's promises: “Thev are sure—they are sure—if you will only believe!” He was as great in death as in life. The same faith which elevated him from an humble 15-year-old street preaceer to oue of 'the world’s great est religious leaders characterized every step of his life. General Booth’s masterful strength, his imoelling personality and mar velous power of organization brought the Salvation Army into existence ond welded it ints a world-power. No organization was carrying the gospel to the dregs of civilization in a thoroughly systematic manner. He began ministering to the spiritual needs of men in the lovt est strata of society. With literalness he and his associates accepted the example of the lowly Nazarene and- carried on their wo.k with the same humility. The drum and the tambourine and the horn were their pipe organ. ^The street corner was their church. They sought their listeners in beer halls and saloons and extended the hand of fellowship to every outcast. The ex-convict and the drunkard were greeted with the same spirit as their more fortunate brothers. In many practical ways General- Booth and-his associates extended their field of usesulness. They sought souls by indirection. The hungry were fed the lagged were clothed and provided with work, and thought the homes es tablished by the army every sort of charity was dispensed to believers and unbelievers alike. General Booth’s Chrisianity was ap plied Chriaianity of the best type. It soon attracted wide attention and com manded the assistance of the wealthy and influential men and women of England. By degrees it extended all about the world, and today the Sal vation Army is at work in fifty-four countries. The Salvations Army workers and the social settlement workers have found the personal servics on the part of consecrated laborers is necessary to uplift the downtrodden. The tene ment dwellers do not want charity. What they demand is sympathetic com panionship and advice. Through its suicide bureaus in great cities the Salvation Army has saved the lives of thousands of dis^’ouraged and dishartened men and women. It is not money that such persons want. What they need is friendly advice* and encouragement to take a stronger hold on life. 4 General Booth leaves a great monu ment behind him. His army stands as one of the great achievements of the last one hundred years. For sixty-nine years General Booth labored for the uplift of mankind and the universal sorrow caused by his death shows how thoroughly his efforts were approved in all parts of the world,—Nashville Tenn. EXCURSION TO RICHMOND VIrGINIA For Post Offices of The First and Second Class. No mail will be opened at first and second class offices hereafter. A law passed by Coi^ress Saturday night—^a law which is probably the most drastic and stringent Sunday enactment that ever received the signature of the President of the United States. It provides that from midnight of Saturday until midnight of Sunday no article of mail received at a first or second-class post office shall be “work- I ed” even to the extent of placing it in a box, except it be of the special delivery variety. In that case it will be delivered as usual. The law is ef fective at once, but notice was not received until the mail Sunday had been distributed into the general de livery compartments and into the rented boxes. It is a law that is going to cause a lot of kicking, and tliere will be a number of people that will not believe its passage was intended to make the world any better.

Insurance companies have threatened to write no more risks in South Caro lina if Gov. Cole Ij. Blease should be re-elected. The reason they threatened to with draw from that State is because life is rendered too cheap under the rule of such a reckless and lawless Governor as Governor Blease has proved him self to be. The Insurance Herald, which is recognized authority on insurance in the South, and which has offices in Richmopd, Atlanta, New Orleans, Dallas, and other cities, says: Several life insurance companies are reported to have decided to accept no further risks in South Carolina if Cole L, Blease is re-elected Governor. Life insurance companies are business enterprises, pure and simple, and they are not moved by sentiment. They take the position, it is said, that life will not 1^ safe in any State with a man in the executive chair who nullifies the criminal courts and piactically puts a premium on murder, not only by freely pardoning convicted murderg ers, but by actually promising in advance a pardon for persona who shall commit murder under certain circum stances. The insurance companies, ac cording to the report, do not care to risk their money in a State where life is held so cheap. Both man and womankind believe their nature when they are not kind.— Bailey.
