Grain ger, J. G. Dawson, Guy G. Moore. Ol iver Miller and Postmaster W. D. LaRoque. t It was a very sad delegation which accompanied the body here from the Capital. Senator Johnson of Duplin county, who was with Mr. Wooten when an automobile in which they were riding was ditched near Raleigh early on the morning of the 19th, and the Speaker sustained the injury from which he died Saturday afternoon, was one of those, who felt the loss most He was a close friend to the unfortunate young head of the House of Representatievs. Mr. Wooten was exceedingly popular in Raleigh, and the city was shocked when he died. His death occurred on the same date that two years ago marked the death of a brother. Mrs. Wooten, who had been with her husband constantly since the accident .was with him to the end and came home with the re mains. Mrs. Mary Wooten, the moth er of the Speaker, had to take to her bed from her grief. - Many Kinston people met the body in Goldsboro Saturday night1 The Bar Association and the Chamber of Commerce met between 4 and 5 o' clock and appointed committees to draft resolutions and to meet the cas ket and the bereaved relatives in Goldsboro. ' A large crowd met the funeral train here shortly after 11 o'clock. - A Free Press representative got Pete Canady, colored, out of jail to day. Canady had been ordered re leased by the coroner, late Saturday. The official order, bristling in techni cal language, informed - the sheriff that "wherein so and so," etc., and the sheriff took it for granted, without finishing the reading, that he was or- dered to hold Canady right on. The last sentence stated that he should be released immediately. He had to stay in jail almost forty-eight hours through a mistake, and might have remained indefinitely except for the inquisitiveness of The Free Press man. "By George," said the sheriff, and hastened off to turn Canady out The negro was arrested several weeks ago as a witness in the case of Paul Hill, who was killed either by a train or by John Sanders, colored, now a fugitive, near Caswell station. 300,000 RESERVES FOR THE NATION'S DEFENSE.

" When sending your clothing to be pressed have you ever realized, and every clean-minded man would shudder with disgust at the thought, that the cloth used to press your suit had just previously been used to press the suit of a man suffering from disease, filthy habits, "etc the cloth in the interim being wet and wrung out in a pail of probably dirtier water, especially so toward the end of the day's work? ? To overcome this we have installed an up-to-date Sanitary Steam Press ing Machine, known as "The Hoff-man." A garment that passes thru this machine is disinfected; as no germs or microbes can exist under a temperature as high as the dry steam we inject; at the same time it re moves any odor, takes away the grimy appearances, raises the nap, re vives the colors and imparts to the garment that freshness desired by all dressers. , , We will appreciate your patronage and guarantee quick and satisfac tory service. . v .. - HOFFMAN FRESSING CLUB, - ,r V FRED.
