(Special to The Evening Times.)
Greensboro, N. C, Sept. 5. Yesterday
Judge Boyd refused to.grant a con
tinuance of the case of revenue officer
indicted for alleged frauds against the
government and the case against ex
Deputy R. H. Hardin was taken up.
Hardin is indicted for making false re
ports to the government of the destruc
tlon of stills, with duplicate counts of
neglect of duty in permitting such
illicit distilleries to operate in Wilkes
county.
It was reported that ex-Governor Ay
cock and C. B. Watson, who were ol
counsel for the defense In the former
trials, have retired from the cases.
In the cross-examination of govern
ment witnesses, Judge Bynum hat
shown io purpose so far of trying to

WAKE COUNTY SCHOOLS
Majority to Open During
Month of October
Many Teaching Positions Not Vet
Filled Contract Let For School
House at Garner to Cost $2,350.
Junior Orders Gave One-fourth.
County Board Meeting.
At the meeting of the county school
board, which was in session yester-
day, it was decided to announce tha:
the public schools of Wake couniy
would open from the first Monday
in October to the first Monday in No
vember.
A large number of positions paying
good salaries have not yet been Oil
ed, and teachers desiring to teach in
Wake county by applying to County
Superintendent Z. V. Judd of Raleigh
would be able to secure positions.
The public school at Garner, which
recently lost its building by fire
caused by lightning, will soon have a
handsome new building to cost $2,
350. The contract has been let to
John A. Wrenn. The building will
have two stories, the upper floor
to be used by the Junior Order,
which contributed one-fourth of the
cost. The insurance on the building
burned, together with the amount
contributed by the lnriior Order, will
nearly cover the contract priee.
CUT HIS ARM AND
NOT HIS THROAT.
Mr. Needham Bagwell, who was
reported about town to have acci
dentally cut his throat with a razor
Sunday at his home, six miles from
here, near Garner, and to have come
near bleeding to death, is back at his
work in one of the clothing houses
on Wilmington street.
The truth of the matter is, that
while preparing his razor to shave,
he drew it across his sleeve to wipe
it without noticing that the edge was
turned the wrong way. The first
thing he knew blood was spurting up
over his head. He had cut a big
vein and two arteries in his left arm.
Medical aid was secured as soon as
possible and Mr. Bagwell's arm is
coming on as well as could be ex
pected. .MRS. MANNING'S FUNERAL.
