Iroqnoia German Club Holds Meeting "Snipe" Boating Population of Halifax. (Special to The Times.) . . Scotland Neck, N. C, March 16 The Iroquois German Club held its third annual meeting a few evenings ago. During the club's .history of more than, two.yearsi . the dances have all been decided successes and much has been added to the social lne of the town by and through tae members of the club. The members earnestly desire to uphold the well- earned reputation the club enjoys, and to that end are preparing for several dances for the approaching season, the first of the series to take place on the evening of April 25th, In Madry's -opera house. The method of running the club has been changed, and in the future it will be governed by a directorate, consisting of the president, secre tary and treasurer, ball manager and two members to be selected by the club. The directorate consists of Henry T. Clark, president; L. Lester IChemp, secretary and treasurer; W. Hugh Kitchih, ball manager; Sam Hoffman and W. Herbert McDowell. By this means of governing the club the members hope to increase its popularity and make it more of success in tne future than in tnc past. 'Snipe" , hunting . has become somewhat of a past time with some of our young men. borne evenings o a party went out to try thei luck. The one who was to hold the bag was placed at the proper point about two miles from town, and told to remain there while the others went to drive in the snipe. The man with the bag, little dreaming that there was a joke being played upon him, patiently waited for the snipe to flock to him and enter the" bag Finally, after quite a time had elapsed and there "was nothing do ing" in the snipe line, he 'smelt rat" and started to town, bringing the empty bag with him. He reach- ed home some time after midnight weary and tired, declaring vengeance upon the ones who had perpetrated the outrage. The population of Halifax county in 1900 was 30,793, and in 1910, 37 646. being an increase of 6,853 While this is not a very great in crease, yet it shows a healthy growth and when the fact that there is not a town in the county with as many as 3,000 population is taken into con sideration, it would seem that what increase we have is mostly on the farms. Mr,iA-. Pender, who has been en gaged with Mr. W. A. Brantley, car riage builder, some time, has gone to Wbitakers to open a buggy shop for himself. Mr. T. F. Whitley will occupy the house on Church street vacated by Mr. Pender. Court will convene in Halifax Mon day. It is a two-weeks term, the first four days being devoted to tae criminal docket, while the remainder of tho term will be taken up in dis posing of the civil cases.

Look out for severe and even dan gerous kidney and bladder trouble re sulting from years of railroading. Geo. E. Bell, 639 Third St., Fort Wayne, Ind., was many years a con ductor on the Nickel Plate. He says: "Twenty years of railroading left my kidneys in terrible condition. There was a continual pain across my back and hips and my kidneys gave me much distress, and the action of my bladder was frequent and most pain ful. I got a supply of Foley Kidney Pills and the first bottle made a won derful improvement and four bottles cured me completely. Since being cured I have recommended Foley Kidney Pills to many of my railroad friends." King-Crowell Drug Co. Used Mails to Defraud.

The present revenue act was put in the present charter in 1905 and the people of Raleigh hRve been living under it all these years and nobody has been hurt. A number of the politicians have been going to the voters and telling them things that would happen and showing them only the revenue sections of the proposed charter. - Prob ably not ope in a himdred tff. the citizens has ever read' the present char ter under which the city is governed and some people have become scared to death' at the provisions, but; when they looked into the matter Ihey have found that the uewscharter has the same Wording as the -old charter, when it. comes to taxes and revenue. We give below the revenue sections from the old charier, enacted in 1905. and the revenue section pf the proposed Commission Government charter. rNow, why should any cltlfcen become scared to death nt the proposed charter, when we have had the same revenue section for- all these years. The best way to answer a critic is to feed hint on cold facts. There is nothing about the new charter that ihepeoiile who pay taxes need fear. There are many things for the taxpayer to admire. : Here are the revenue provisions of the charters, so the people can see for themselves that there is nothing being rushed over the taxpayer: t-r PKOPOSF.D CHARTER.
