The program presented by the Redpath Chautauqua iu Concord this year has been even better than was expected and hun dreds of persons have beeu deVghtfully entertained by the splendid attractions of fered. Every feature of the program shows careful thought on the part of the Redpath officials for there have been en tertainments for all classes of all ages, and only clean, wholesome attractions have been presented. It is nothing less than remarkable that such entertainments can be provided for the price of the season tickets for it is only fair to the ehautauqua officials to state that many of the features alone are worth the price of the tickets offered for the entire week. Tlie members of the Woman's Club, the guarantors and other persons who have made it possible to bring this ex cellent entertainment to Concord are to be congratulated: and officials of the Chautauqua company are to be commend ed for the high class program presented. THE HOTEL SOON A REALITY. With the letting of the contract for the erection of Concord’s new hotel it is not too much to presume that the hos telry will be a reality in less than a year. In making announcement of the award ing of the contract the building commit tee of the hotel company did not state just when the building is expected to be completed, but the company which re ceived the contract is known to be a most reliable one, one which can put to work on the structure enough men to rush the job to completion. This item undoubtedly received much consideration from the committee, for it is absolutely essential that the building be completed without delay. Concord at present has no hotel facilities and the sooner. the hostelry is ypened the better for the city. The company which received the con tract is now completing the Poinßette Hotel in Greenville, S. C.. and that the hotel is one of the handsomest to be found anywhere in the South. When the contract for that building was awarded the company promised to have the struc ture completed in eleven months. The of ficial opening is now get for June 22nd. which means that the contractors have made good their promise. .: vtt— THE “REDS” IN CHINA.

In its last.analysis such a strug gle might easily approximate a war be tween Japan and Russia, with the actual campaigning carried on by Feng and Chang and the supplies furnished by Mos cow and Tokio. Already considerable quantities of ammunition have been sent across the frontier from Russia, and Rus sian army instructors have gone into in ner Mongolia to co-operate with the of ficer of Feng. In some places, steps have been taken to mobilize railroad equip ment in Mongolia for Feng’s troops, while at other northern points railroad facili ties have become a prize for active but in conclusive maneuvering. The Russian ambassador at Pekin has given encour agement to the forces of unrest in a man ner which has incurred the strong dis pleasure of the envoys of the great world powers. Russian propaganda has been in creasing in volume not only in the north but also, at Canton and other centers in the south.” REDUCTIONS OF THE BUS SCHEDULES MOST PROBABLE Sa.v Heavy Service Is Not Justified by the Passenger Travel. Raleigh, June 6.—Reduction of bus schedules on routes touching the larger cities is expected to be asked of the Cor poration Commission soon for the relief of the operating companies, which find the existing heavy service not justified by passenger travel. One line, running between Greensboro and Raleigh, recently thrown into receiv ership, by carrying too few passengers on too many trips, Ims already petitioned for permission to cut its daily round trips from 14 to seven. The commission will hold a hearing on the petition with in the next few days, and it then may give consideration to the matter of sched ules of lines on other routes. The bus lines, since going under State control, are now in the same category as the railroads. They must have the permission of the Corporation Commis sion to operate, and fix schedules, and they must likewise have permission of the body to take off busses or reduce schedules. The operations, under State control, were begun in March . Most of the bus companies, especially those running : on well patronized routes, eagerly sought! as many daily trips as they could get. The commission did its best to oblige. I On some routes, between Charlotte and Greensboro, and Greensboro and Raleigh, for instance, a half hour service was ar ranged. enabling a traveler between those cities to get a bus every 30 minutes of j the day. The close schedules have proved con venient enough for the traveler, but they have hit the bus companies, for appar ently there is not enough travel to keep tlie bussps filled up. The result is that many busses make their daily runs with i many empty seats, and that causes a loss | in revenue. which most of the lines are 1 not in a position to sustain. Re-arrangement of the schedules may I be found necessary to enable the bus lines to get themselves on a safety pay- j iug basis. The mineral outuf of British Colum-1 bin last year had a total value of close ! to 550.000.00. “WORTH ITS WiIGHT Says Concord Woman Braising HERB JUlCE.—Nervous Indigestion Over come.—Wants Other Sufferers (o Know About It. “There is a limit to all human endur-j a nee, and I felt that I had endured all that I could when finally I found relief. | I hhd despaired of ever, getting relief, from nervous indige&ion and constipation and that 1 was just resigned to a life of pain, when HERB JUICE, recommended to me by a friend, brought me real and lasting freedom from my suffering.” Such was the gratifying endorsement of Mrs. Bessie Rollins. 513 White Street, Con cord.

I have brought you up the broad river, and through the screen of rushes, and down the green tunnel, and up the long slope of palm trees, and through the bamboo brake, and across the plain of tree-ferns. At last our destination lay in full sight of us- When we had crossed the second ridge we saw before us an Ir regular, palm-studded plain, and the line of high red cliffs which 1 have seen in the picture. There It lies, even as 1 write, and there can be no question that it is the same. At the nearest point it is about seven miles from our pres ent camp, and it curves away, stretching as far as I can see. Challenger struts about like a prize peacock, and Summerlee is silent, bqt still sceptical. Another day should bring some of our doubts to an end. Meanwhile, as Jose, whose arm was piereed by a broken bamboo. Insists upon re turning, 1 send this letter back in ) his charge, and only hope that it may eventually come to hand. ’I will write again as the occasion serves: I have enclosed with this a rough chart of our Journey, which may have the effect of mak ing the account rather easier to understand. CHAPTER IX “Who could have Foreseen it?” A dreadfnl thing has happened to us. Who could have foreseen it? 1 cannot foresee any end to our troubles. It may be that we are condemned to spend our whole lives in this strange. Inaccessible place. I am still so confused that I can hardly think clearly of the facts of the present or of the chances of the future, To my astounded senses the one seems most terrible and the other as black as night. No men have ever found them selves tn a worse position, r.or is there any use in disclosing to you our exact geographical situation and ashine our friends for a relief party. Efe:: if they could send one, our fate will in all human probability be decided long before it could arrive in South America. We are. fn truth, as far from any human" 'aid as if we were in the moon. if we are to win through, it is only our own qual ities which can save U 3. I have as companions three remarkable hien, men of great brain power and of unshaken courage. There lies our one and only hope. It is only when I look upon the untroubled faces of ray comrades that I see some glimmer through the dark ness. Outwiirdly l trust that 1 ap pear as unconcerned as they In wardly I am filled with apprehen sion. Let me give you. with a3 much detail as 1 can. the sequence of. events which have led us to this catastrophe. Challenger presided with a solemnity as If he were the Lord Chief Justice on the bench. < When 1 finished my last letter 1 stated that we were within seven miles from an enormous line of ruddy cliffs, which encl’rclfid, be yond all ddubt, the plateau of which Profe*Bof Challenger spoke. Their height, as we approached them, seemed to me in some places to be greater than he had stated— running up.Jlji parts to at least a thousand feet—and they were curiously atriafed. In a manner which Is, I believe, characteristic of basaltic upheavals. Something of the sort Is to be seen In Salis bury Cragß. : at Edinburgh. Tie summit ahog§§- ,«very sign of a luxuriant vegetation, with bushes /hear the edge, . and farther back many high «fe. There was no indicationtp any life 'tjut ' That?'nigs’jfe pitchfed d£r cabjp igunediatsly i £pder > the cliff—» most-wild ‘ dffd spot Tli crags above -us .were not merdly p«fSp«ndicnlar»’butcnrved outwards at the fop; that ascent was out of the question- CMOS to us was the high thin pinnacle of roek which I believe I mentioned earlier In this narrative. It is like a broad red church wire, the top of it being level with the plateau, but a great chasm gaping between. On the summit of it there grew one high tree. Both pinnacle and cliff were comparatively low—some five or six hundred feet, I should think. “It wds on that,” said Professor Challenger, pointing to this tree, “that the pterodactyl was perched. I climbed half-way up the rock be fore I shot him. I am inclined to think that a good mountaineer like mysel f could ascend the rook to the top, though he would, of course, be no nearer to the plateau when he had done so.” As Challenger spoke of his pterodactyl I glanced at Professor Summerlee, and for the first time j I seemed to see some signs of a dawning credulity and repentance, j There was no sneer upon his thin ! lips, but, on -the contrary, a gray, ■ drawn look of excitement and i amazement. Challenger saw it, top, and reveled in the first taste of victory. “Os course,” said he, with his clumsy and ponderous sarcasm, “Professor Summerlee will under stand that when I speak of ptero dactyl 1 mean a stork —only it is the kind of stork which has no feathers, a leathery skin, mem branous wings, and teeth in Its jaws." • He grinned and blinked and bowed until his colleague turned and walked away. In the morning, after a frugal breakfast of coffee and manioc— we had to be economical of our stores —we held a council of war as to the best method of ascend ing to the plateau above us. Challenger presided with a so lemnity as If he were the Lord Chief Justice on the Bench. Pic ture him seated upon a rock, his absurd boyish straw hat tilted on the back of his head, his super cilious eyes dominating us from under his drooping lids, his great black beard wagging as he slowly defined our present situation and our future movements. - Beneath him you might have seen the three of us —myself, sunburnt, young, vigorous after our open air tramp; Summerlee, solemn but still critical, behind his eternal pipe; Lord John, as keen as a razor-edge, with his supple, alert figure leaning upon his rifle, and his eager eyes fixed eagerly upon the speaker. Behind us were grouped two swarthy half-breeds and the little knot of Indians, while in front and above us tower ed those huge, ruddy ribs of rocks which kept us from our goal. “1 need not say,” said our lead er, "that on the occasion of my last visit I exhausted every means of climbing the cliff, and where I failed 1 do not think that anyone else la likely to succeed, for I am something of a mountaineer. I had none of the appliances of a rockcljmber with mo, but I have taken the precaution to bring them now. With their aid 1 am positive 1 could climb that detached pin nacle to the summit; but so long as the main cliff overhangs, it Is vain to attempt ascending that. I wag hurried upon my last visit by the approach of the rainy sea son and by the exhaustion of my supplies. These considerations limited my time, and I can only claim that I have surveyed shout six miles of the ciiff to the east of tts, finding no possible way ap. What, then, shall we now do?” “There seams to be only one rea sonable course,” said Professor Summerlee. “If you have explored the east, we should travel along tbs base of the cl fit to the west, sad seek fpr a practicable , point fpyaitr wcent.” V. , i “Jrhat’S it," said Lord frohn. “The odds are that this plateau Is of no fcmgt size, and we shall travel round it tfntU we either dad an easy way up it, pr come' back tm the f|T*T T VI A DVhT£l ffTW ff\ T 9 Uuuu llAniVii} JT UDitl 1 vAu Wi No. .
