Snceial to The Tribune. Raleigh,: February 0. As the days draw nearer when the matter of ad ditional .legislation, . designed to . strengthen the existing general State Prohibition law, must be settled and ' acted upon, it becomes more and more 1 apparent that there exists among me ; lawmakers some fjimlve differences : which must be adjusted before an amicable agreement ran ne reached, ; That this is true is accentuated this " week bv the omnosition which has de- SetopeOo the, radicat mesuW"pr1 tented by Judge awarc, Apuimcu, . MnrMisntative of Henderson county. a measure which its author takes pride in designating as the most radical bill df the kind ever introduced in - th lezislature of anV State. One of tbe sections which some of " its critics think will weaken the law - and operate more against its effective enforcement than it will tend to help e is that which makes the buyer liable Jo prosecution equally with the seller, and on the evidence of blind tiger op ; erators. The additional point is made - that this would place a dangerous weapon in the hands of "undesirable - eitisens" which (they will use to "get even " for beine prosecuted and even to venj spite and take so-called re :'" venge on innocent persons. ,t The more ' ' radical of the prohibitionists . of y ' ', course think differently and a minor- . -' , ity report will be pressed if the com- ' mittec reports it adversely..

The differ- ' , - ences referred to above are confined to the modus operandi of doing this. Because the general statebill to tax dogs (which bad a larger vote than , -, ever before) was defated,. those who ' , are in earnest in the matter are now going after the worthless sheep and stock killinir curs, in another way. They are preparing bills to apply td " their own counties only. Senator - " Boyden, for instance, says he is de . termined to get through a local bill ' ' of this character that will prove f- ' ' feetive in Rowan county, and there " t are a number of others working along --' the same plan.

Galveston Dispatch, 5th. , ' In the hurricane and tidal wave on September 8, 1900, the 4-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs, Charles Woodson, of Eldorado, Texas, who were visiting relatives near Bolivar, on Galveston Bay, was swept away when the house went down and was carried by the sea inland for nearly a mile. A few days ago a traveling Sales man heard the story of the finding of the infant in a pasture from rhe man who found the child and placed it in an asylum in San Antonio, The sales man knew the Woodsons, who since moved to Kansas City, and the child, noW a bright boy 14 years of age, was traced to a family named Warner, near Jjtedencksburg, Texas, wno adoped the child from the asylum six rears ago ana were rearing him as rbeir own. ' Identity was established by a. gold medal with the child's initials engrav ed on it, which be wore when claimed by the storm, and a birthmark on the body. . The parents believed the baby had been killed and its body carried to sea sifter weeks of fruitless search for its body. At the borne of the foster parents the boy was restored to its own pa rents today.

Fit Guaranteed. WAJTT TO BE LET ALCS2. Mill Men Oppose Bffl to Kaka CIZi , Labor Axe limit 14. Cotton mill men, representing oos and a half million or more spindles, were' given a bearing before the joint legislative committee on manafactur eie Tuesday afternoon on the Bat Us bill making rhe child labor age limit 14 years and subjecting mills to in spection as to the observance of the law by representatives of the stata department of labor, says the Raleigh correspondent of the . Greensboro News. '.t .fi , The spokesman for the cotton mill men were J. A. Long, of Roxboro, chairman; D. T. Cooper, of Header son, and Alf Thompson, of Raleigh. Tbey appealed in 'the 'name of tbe North Carolina Cotton Manufacturers ' association for the labor laws to be eft alone, as they are now having good effect, and because this is a time of serious stress in the cotton mill busi ness, and no time for radical leeisla- tion. They argued that the interests of parents and children and cotton , mill owners were being conserved by the present lsw and that the proposed change would produce idle and de teriorating children, cut tbe revenue- of the working people, create strife, engendering labor and department in spectors and unjustly burden manu facturers with obnoxious affidavits as to observance of a law not required of. any other class of citizens.
