The train consisted of six coaches and was well loaded with the vets. White at the station the squad from Camp No. 212, of Concord, got off and. forming on the platform, sang several songs to the delight of the large crowd which gathered about the aged warriors.

"Tenting on the Old Camp Ground," "Dixie" and other favor ites followed each other in 'beautiful Harmony, conteuerate war songs were sung and one telling of heroes and of battles, sung to the tune of 'Ye Old Time Religion," seemed es pecially like an echo from a trium phant battle field and the staunch, true, life and devotion of the camp, when these men once young and bv&ve followed Lee and Jackson to the can non's month. A young Miss, about 12 years of age, was with the Concord delegation as mascot and she assisted in the im promptu entertainment at the stat'oa by reciting a story of heroic days and deeds.

Standing on a high section of ground not yet reached by the steedily rising water, Joseph Clary, who has been entomb ed 78 feet deep in a mine here since Sunday morning, late last night re lated his remarkable experience to men on the surface. Communication was obtained with the young man by means of a telephone. As he told of his lone vital in abso lute darkness fraught now with hope, now with oittor disappointment, but never with despair, he interrupted the conversation now and then to receive supplies of food lowered through the nve-inen Bbart, which, after three holes were bored in vain, finally reached the drift where he was held prisoner. The supense he suffered is indicat ed in part of his story as told over the telephone. He said: 1 tried to count the strokes of the drill and was able to eauee time a little by the pounding of the bit. Hours passed until I heard the drill cutting into the hardground, but I could not locate the sound in the darkness. "Soon the drilling stopped. I knew they had missed the drift. As time passed and I could hear no sound I could picture them making new cal culations. I was not surprised when I heard the drilling of the first hole. All the time the water was rising a little higher, but I was not worried,'' I was hungry, but I tried to keep from thinking about anything to eat. It was hard to keep from thinking about it, however, and I drank a lot of wa ter from the drift. "After a while I felt a draft of fresh air, and I knew the drill had cut into the drift. But in the darkness I could not locate it. I called with all my might, but could not make my self heard. It was maddening. "Then when I heard the drilling again in a new location I was discour aged for the first time. But not for a minute did I give up hope. "It was tho same thing over and over again for the next few hours, I grew ravenously hungrv all the time, but tried to forget it. I busied myself as much as possible, until the fourth drill hole penetrated the roof of the drift, It took me a loeg time" to. lo cate the hole." To Discuss Railroad Rates.

Charlotte Connects With Briar Creak and Sas Plasty ef Water. Charlotte, August 2. Overeominf obstacles that might well have dis mayed a city thrice its sise, Charlotte has conquered the forces of nature and by artificial means has eotved the water supply problem. Tonkht s generous supply of pure water is Sow ing through the mains, the sewerage system is complete and the means ef fire protection are more adequate than Derore the water was abut off last Friday. The big reservoir, holding 2.000- 000 gallons, is full; Stewart's creek is flowing 300,000 gallons into the set-. tling basita, while water trains from the Catawba, on regular schedule,, augumented by the supply from. neighboring towns, brine the dailv , supply from outside sources to nearly i,iw",uw gauons a aay. Unaectioa was made today with Briat creek. which will furnish nearly 1.000.000 gallons daily, and this will be held ia reserve in the event of continued of continued drought- rank ears filled to the brim have been distributed on the railroad lines which encompass the citv for the ose of fire steamers, notwithstanding the 1 act that cbe ore protection throusrh the mains is ample. - Fifty extra tanks are ready if needed in emergency to augment the already adequate supply. Reports from outlying points indicate little improvement so far as crops are concerned, nor is the prospects of ' cities and towns that are facing water ploblems, but from tomorrow Char lotte pepople will have forgotten that they ever experienced, the ineonven- -ineee of a water famine. . - No rain has fallen since the showers of Monday, bnt atmospheric'' condi tions, according to the weather ho- ,' reau, promise relief for the entire sec tion. An election is to be held in Cana da on the 21st of S ptemfber for new members of the Canadian paiiiment and the main issue during the cam paign will be the reciprocity ques tion, and it is arousing much interest and feeling and the campaign ia ex pected to be quite vigorous if not bitter. ,..,",.. r ft 11 GET IT AT Will ameiaanss'Bwa-ei"m''Ht",a" "v -v S
