SOI’THEKN COURT UPHOLDS PLEA FOR WIFE’S OBEDIENCE Alabara Supreme Court Upholds the Husband’s Right to Re Obeyed. Montgomery. Ala.. July 2.—The aged old marriage vow contaiuiug the word ’’obey,” fast tending toward obsolescense was given an * interpretation with “teeth” by the Alabama court of appeals when it upheld, in effect, the right of a husband to object to his wife’s employment of adventitious aids to her supposedly natural beauty. It is the imperative duty jrf a man's wife to obey, the court held. The wife in question bad curled her hair ggaijl-st the expressed wish of her husband^ In rendering the opinion, the court also decided it uot only was the right but the duty of the husband, in absence of proof of bad character, to fix the domicile of his children, irrespective of the mother's wishes. The ruling was made in reversing a lower court which hgs issued a writ of habeas corpus to Mrs. Macon Sparkman to recover custody of her daughter. i Following domestic incompatibility as aj result of his wife's curled hair, it was said. Mrs. Sparkman left her husband, taking the child, Ijiter Sparkman re covered the daughter and placed her in his mother's home.

BY STANLEY 'in'And abouttheoty' I NO FOURTH OF JULY ■ CELEBRATION HERE Catand Pemde HUM Have Celebration ad ' | Fab- Grounds But Nothing Planned by l j- White People. ). There is every indication that July Fourth will be quietly observed in Con cord. No celebration of any kind is i planned for the city proper although the colored people plan to stage a big cele ‘ bration at the Fair Grounds during the I day. j Kannapolis will have a big celebration and it is probable that many Concord people will go there. Due to the faet that the colored people have arranged a program that should appeal to members of both raees it is also probable that many white |M>ople of the city will go to the fair grounds tomorrow afternoon to enjoy the program there. Business will be conducted here as us ual tomorrow morning but in the after noon practically all of the husincss hous es will be closed. The I .auks will be closed throughout the day ns will be the library and the postoffice, this meauing that there will be no city or rural deliveries and iliat the general delivery and staVnp windows will not be opened.

Tlie Fourth is usually observed as a holi- Dda.v by The Tribune foree. but due to Ilie faet that the Democratie convention will be in session tomorrow the paper will be published as usual.

New York, July 2.—-The Democratic : convention has made the Constitution ; tlie best seller. * * 1 This is the observation of Roy Car> i ruthers. managing director of the Wai- I dcrf-Astoria Hotel, where many of the j Presidential and party lead- j ers are staying, and where every guest i -finds in his room a amlume containing j the Constitution of the United States and ] the Declaration of Independence. The I books were placed in all the rooms of j the Waldorf-Astoria and its affiliated 1 betels at the suggestion of General Cole- i man DuPont. "Although it was our intention to have tlie book* left permanently in the rooms we did expect sonic few gursts would wisli copies to take with them.” says Mr. Carruthers. “The demand for them lias been surprisingly large, how ever. and so far in excess of what wc anticipate that it almost makes the Con stitution approach the status of n best seller. Ever so many persons have con fessed that they had never before read the Constitution, while a few admitted not having read the Declaration of In dependence. Syrup Now Produced From Stalks of ' Corn, Washington. July r '2.—Corn stalks, whose best use heretofore has been to throw them to Cattle and hogs for feed ami bedding, will furm*h a valuable syrup, according to a report by J. J. Williamati. G. O. Burs and F. H. Dav ison. of the I'uiversilk- of Minnesota, which will appear in Jhe next issue of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry. ; According to the report, all kinds of sweet corn aud some varieties of field corn can be used in this new process. Tlie scientists recommend that the syrup be made as a byproduct of sweet corn canning. After} picking the cars: for canned corn the stalks ire allowed to remain standing in the field for ten to twenty days for tlie sugar juices to accumulate. Then the stalks are cut, leaves and tassels are removed, aud the stalks are pressed. The pressed residue . may be used as fuel to run the plant or’dried with the leaves and baits! for fl>e<l. This use of the by-product is necessary for econom ical management. Tlie treatment of the joslees is essen tially the same -as fo* the making of sorghum ayenp. Tlie syrup produced from cornstalks is clear, of radish amber color, and a mild agreeable flavor. It is not a fable syrup, but a cooking syrup, .with characteriatle* and uses *(hi#kr; to those of tbe best grades of i sorgbuth and molasses. 'ftw city council ot. Greenfield.
