"EDISON DAY" WILL BE CELEBRATED WEDNESDAY Electricians in Kinston as well as throughout teh world will Wednesday celebrate "Edison Day," in commence ment of the thirty-fifth anniversary of Thomas Alva Edison's invention of the incandescent electric liup. A replica of Edison's firsTlamp, is being displayed at the Water and Light Department's office. For near ly ten years the Edison lamp was made with bambo filament, and to that lamp must be attributed in large degree the marvelous development of electric lighting and power all over the World, as well as the creation of the modern central station industry, which in the United States alone rep resents an investment of over $2,500, 000,000, and annual earnings of over $350,000,000. Even as late as 1908 a few special types of Edison bamboo lamps were being made. Tungsten finally succeeded entirely bamboo as a filament. Nature never had such a savage cross-examiner as Edison, when he was in search of his first filament. Fifty thousand tests of bamboo were made by him. But the principle of "damnable iteration," Edison, confi dent that bamboo would answer his purpose, finally discovered the shape in which he wanted it, and made with it litfht. He gutted the terres tial sphere of its supplies. His par ties in China, Japan, the tropics and elsewhere bought up the available bamboo, and McGowan, one of his representatives in South America, it is said, discovered several rivers which, unlike Roosevelt, he did not even take the trouble to name, leav ing that for the explorers. The Water and Light office is giv ing away photographs for framing of the famous inventor. CARMAN MURDER TRIAL BEGUN TODAY AT MINEOLA. (Continued from Page One.) had been indicted, coolly admitted she hi;d had it placed there so that she could "spy" upon her husband while he was closeted with women pa tients. She confessed that she was jealous of him and she wanted to find out whether or not her suspicions were coi rect. The State expects by dictograph records which it has in its possession to prove that Mrs. Carman had cause to be jealous of her husband. This, the district attorney asserts, will sup ply a motive for the murder. The weapon with which the mur der was committed was never found. The prosecution has made an exten sive search for it, spending a great deal of time and money in an effort to find it. but all its efforts were un availing. Following a highly sensational hearing, the grand jury of Nassau county returned an indictment against Mrs. Carman, charging her with man slaughter in the first degree. Her bail was arranged at once, numbers of Dr. Caiman's friends coming for ward with offers. Subsequently Dis trict Attorney S.r.irh uncovered new evidence that resulted in anotfyBr grand jury hearing and Mrs. Carman was re-indicted, this time on a charge of murder. The district attorney is said to have j.iopa.el a .iurpi isc for the defen so in the introduction of two women as witnesses who were in the waiting room adjoining Dr. Carman's office at the time of the murder. He is de clared to have learned the identity of these two women and has planned to subpoena them during the trial. Mrs. Carman's remaikable compo sure during the grand jury investi gation, prior to her first indictment and up until the time she was indict ed for murder, was much commented on. Following her indictment on the murder charge she seemed to show traces of worry for the first time. She grew ill when confined in coun ty jail and for a time it was feared her health was such that she could not be tried at this time. FOLEY mxXX t'Z- BULLETINS.

Fighting is in progress south of Warsaw." SOUTHERN RAILWAY COMPANY To Shippers and Receivers of Freight in North Carolina: Attention is called to revised tar iffs containing rates for the transpor tation of freight between points in North Carolina, effective October 13, 1914. These tariffs are issued in ac cordance with the decision of the Special Rate Commission, dated Aug ust 13, 1914. All freight tariffs of the Southern Railway Company in conflict with the provisions of this order have been canceled or revised o conform to the rates, rules and regulations prescrib ed by the Sqecial Rate Commission. Special attention is called to the fact that in the application of this new law, many important changes and new conditions are brought about, the knowledge of which is essential to every shipper and receiver of freight in North Carolina. Ordinar ily there is but one rate between any two points within the State. Under the new law there will be as many rates between two given points as there are available routes between such points. A new basis for mak ing joint rates with other lines is provided and the shipper has the right to select the shortest available route. Some of these routes, while physically shorter than others, ere longer from the standpoint of effi cient service, and the movement of freight via these unusual routes will necessarily require more time than if sent via more efficient routes. Shippers should in all cases insert in the bill of lading the route over which it is desired that the shipment move. If shipments are tendered to pgents of this company and destir.evl to a point on its own line, but with out specific routing instructions, it will be assumed that it is the desire cf the shipper that the shipment move over the Southern Railway at its law fully established rate, even though a lower rate may be in force via anoth er route.
