AT VARIANCE WITH
''NEWSPAPER VERSION
Arthur Spiefel doesn't see to save
him how the German arms can fail
to take the final honors in the great
conflict of the nations of Europe.
That comes from beins patriotic,
probably,1 but Mr. Spiefel claims to
have the facts and figures to back
up his opinion.
Spiefel is a traveling man. He
spent Saturday night and Sunday
here. He is one generation remov
ed from the fatherland, out. xnows
a good deal about Germany from
having spent four or five years there
and having visited - relative; ;n Mu
nich only last fall.
"Our people can't realise tho thor
oughness of the Emperor's prepara
toins," Mr. Spiefel declared. "Ger
many's territory is comparatively
small, and she has no great coast
line to protect. Her army is big
enough to repulse any invasion, and
even if she fails in her aggressive
methods, on the defensive she will
prove unconquerable, it 3 a great,
highly efficient army, so easily con
centrated that it can never be shak
en by a force five times its strength.
And Germany is so compact that
concentration is practicable,, and the
intensive methods of the people so
productive, that the Kaiser s men
are not in any danger of marching
on empty stomachs ifer years" to
come. The women, you sec, can work
in the fields.
"We, in the United States, don't
know anything about modern mili
tarism. Germany can mobilize an
army corps with more expedition and
much less confusion than the Unit
ed States can a brigade."
Mr. Spiefel leaves today for
Charleston, S. C. S
FATHER GUARANTEES
FUGITIVE'S RETURN
The county authorities will make
no further effort to locate Leslie
Hines, sought for the killing of Lou
Chapman, near Falling Creek. Hines'
father has promised that he will le
bi ought to Kinston within u few
hears. The fugitive nego slapped
the woman on ihe stomach after she
had attacked him in a tobacco field
more than a week ago, and the yip,
which caused injury to an organi oc
casioned her death Friday night, J
"I will have your son within twenty-four
hours, so you had better ad
vise him to return without trccble.
Circumstances have every appear
ance of being in his favor," the sher
iff told
d Harry Hines? the aged P'-t
Hines admitted he knew where
ent
the son was. ar.d said he would hand
him over to the officers as soon tin
he could (ret to him.
Lou Chapman, according to all evi
dence, had abused Hines because his
boy had struck one of her children on
ped by the man when she collared
and be,:an an attack on him.
JAIL DELIVERY AVERTED;
TOO MAN V SMITHS.
The fart that there arc two Louis
Smiths on the Shelmedine mail rouie
prevented a jail delivery from the
Pitt county prison, it developed to
day. A negro named Murphy, :a
the jail, wrote to one of the Smitti.-,
asking him to tell Murphy's wife to
go to Washington for hack saws,
which he intended to have secretly
carried into his cell.
The wrong Louis Smith received
the letter, and 6howed it to the mail
carrier.
The saws were received, and a de
puty sheriff surprised the prisoners
in the act of cutting their way out.
They had sawed through the bolts in
a window when the officer arrived
upon the scene. They confessed that
Louis Smith, a resident in the Blat"S
Jack section, furnished the tools, and
Smith has been arrested.
COP'S TENURE OF

vertised for a policeman, secured a

Harry Malepuss, who applied and
showed splendid references of his
physical prowess and ingenuity J in
the science of criminology, remained
on the force two hours, ana a.en was

MR. WALSH WITH
THE FREE PRESS
Mr. Cheater A. Walsn, who has
been with the Winston-Salem Jour
nal for the 'past two years, has joined
The Free Press family, and has tak
en charge of the linotype department.
Mr. Walsh is an experienced man,
and with his addition to tse forces,
the management hopes to be able to
fulfill its promise to its patrons to
fuiaish them the news first and on
time.
The Winston-Salem Journal has
the following to say about Mr. Walsh,
which will help to introduce him in
this, his new home:
"Mr. Chester A. Walsh, a member
of The Journal family for two years,
and known to the memtiers of "Lit
tle Bohemia" more familiarly as
"Doc," has resigned, and will leave
Fiiday morning for Kinston, where
he will take charge of wo linotype
department of the Kinston Free
Press. Mr. Walsh is a Napoleon of
the linotype, and "copy" falls before
his trained touch like wheat before
a twentieth century reaper. He is
a linotype man cf wide experience,
a gentleman with personality, and a
good fellow. His friends on The
Journal regret to see him leave the
city, as he is not only an adept in
his work, but is always optimistic
and always interesting. Mr. Walsh,
in giving up the night work, states
that he is doing so primarily in the
interest of his health.
TROUBLE IN PITT
OYER STOCK LAW
A report from Pitt county today
says there is a deal of unrest there
owing to conditions which have
grown out of the repeal of the stock
law in the territory in that county,
where it was in operation until some
months ago. In the Beaver Dam
section a suit over ownership of hogs
involves prominent citizens, it is
said. Rick Sumrell was charged in
the same court with confining a sow
fiom her pigs. The techr?cal cnarge,
brought by Butler Allen, was cruel
ty to animals. Sumrell was sent up
to supc:ior court. One wr- xmo citi-
ns are under indictnitrv. .'cr let
ting slock run on the range, while
ethers are awaiting trial for shut
t.ng up animals, the ownenhb of
which is contested. The confusion
around Heaver inm and m other
pails of Pitt, is bidding fair to re
.siili in a serious break of relations be
tween the people of the neighbdr-
hoods,

YORK SUFFRAGISTS
OBSERVE "DENIAL DAY."
New York, Aug. 17. Thousands
of dollars were expected to be pour
ed into the coffers of the New York
State suffrage organizations as a
result of funds secured through ob
servance Saturday of "Denial Day."
Women in every walk of life in the
Metropolis, from the daughters and
wives of the wealthy, to the feminine
members of laborers' families denied
themselves either some delicacy or
pome necessity, and sent the money
to suffrage headquarters for use in
a nation-wide fight for the vote for
women. Dr. Anna Howard Shaw
gave up her vacation. She will
spend the time making more than 100
speeches in the course of a sixty-day
trip through the seven "campaign
States" of North and South Dakota,
Nebraska, Montana, Missouri, Ne
vada and Ohio. Scores of profession
aT women of New York sent the day's
ralary to headquarters.
MISSOURI WOMEN PLAN
BIG CAMPAIGN FOR VOTES.
St, Louis, Aug. 17. Saturday was
special campaign day 'throughout
Missouri, and suffragists generally
contributed to a fund which is to be
used in the campaigns in Missouri,
Montana, North and South Dakota,
Nebraska, Nevada and Ohio. Accord
ing to present plans, Mrs. Medill
McCormick, Miss Jane Addams, Dr.
Anna Howard Shaw and Mrs. Desha
Breckenridge will head a band of
.noted suffragists who will invade
Missouri this fall to aid local leaders
in their fight to put Missouri among
the suffrage SUites. Missouri wo
men believe the conversion of Speak
er Champ Clark to the cause of wo
man suffrage has given them a splen
did chance to win in Missouri.
