I liaVe no pleasure ( in the death of the wicked. . . Turn ye, turn ye from.your evil ways for why will ye die, O house of Israel?—Ezekiel ( 33:11. , THE SYSTEM MUST BE CHANGED. | 1 1 Two chain gang guards, .one of them captain of the guard, with several years’ 1 service TO lhs credit, flaw been sentenced < to serve 29 years in the State prison for ( the death of a negro convict. The guards pleaded guilty to manslaughter and were ( given 'the full term provided by' law for ; such cases. ' Judge Sinclair, who presided at the , trial of the men charged with taking ( Joseph Needleman from a county jail and mutilating him. sentenced the two guards < and he made it plain that he gave them < the limit of the law because he felt they deserved an even more severe sen tence, and he hinted that a verdict of ( second degree murder would have been possible had the case gone to trial. The negro died after he is alleged to 1 „ have been severely flogged by th,e guards, 1 .who then hitched.kim to a mule and had | him dragged for some distance. The case ( was given to a grand jury a few days af ter the negro, died; the grand jury im mediately returned its indictment and the I two men had been arraigneAand sen- 1 tenced in less than a week after the flog- ( ging took place. This is another instance in which jus tice in North Carolina moved swiftly and accurately, and while such dispatch of duty by the courts is certain to have a very fine influence, we must go deeper in the matter of treatment olf prisoners in North Carolina. A few days before this negro was ill treated, reports from Gastonia told of horrible conditions in a prison camp in that county. Thirty-odd prisoners had been sleeping in a tiny shack that was not properly ventilated. Their beds were lousy, said the Gastonia reports, and the men were forced to sleep in their clothes without sheets on their cots. Nothing has been heard of this matter since the grand jury made its first re port and apparently everything has been done to cover it up, but the fact remains just the same that something is rotten with a system that will permit such con ditions to exist. The system by which prison camps are managed will have to be changed. That should be evident m the face of facts that have been brought to light in recent months. It is right -to punish those per sons who are caught, but how about those Who are not caught? Tfhe system is wrong and such condi tions as were revealed'in Gaston county Will continue until a change is made. The same is true in regard to the case In which the negro was so man-handled that he died. There should not be in op eration a system that will give guards an opportunity to take such action as was taken against l this prisoner. THE DUKE UNIVERSITY OF THE FUTURE. Even when it was announced that Duke was to be established with an enormous endowment did the public real ize just what the. announcement meartt. The enormous scope of the undertaking is beginning to sink in now, however, especially in view of facta made public at the commencement exercises at die university this week. The first gift of James B. Duke made it possible for the university to spent 16,000,900 for buildings and equipment, and in addition he has given another $2,1 000,000 for this same purpose. 'This means that only Yale, Harvard, Columbia • and the University of Chicago will have | greater endowment funds than Duke Uni versity, and in turn this means that the Duke University of the future will tike rank with these institutions. An entirely new plant is to be laid out and erected, at a site some little dis tance from the present site of the Uni versity. It is understood that all of the present equipment will be utilized as the woman’s unit of the university, after the new buildings have been erected and the eequipment installed. More than 3.000 acres have been purchased as the univer sity site, and the location is recognized as an ideal one. This plan will make it possible for the university to offer to young ladies all advantages found at oth er colleges, for their plant in away, will be entirely separate from the plant 'for the young men, although the entire uni versity will be under one head. . It will take years for the dreams of Mr. Duke and his associates to be real ized, hut there is,no question but that North Carolina in Duke University is, destined to have one of the really great j institutions of learning in the United States. , CENTURY FASHIONGRAMS ——— Everything is pearls—pine for hats necklaces in rainbow tints, bracelets— and smarter even in imitation than in the genuine. The new fashion is to wear real flow ers instead of the artificial ones—the first requisite of which is to possess a cavalier of good taste. Footwear in sandal fashion, made of woven strips of leather, promises coolness and smartness whatever the thermome ter. Scarfs are all the go, especially the vivid hand-blocked ones. Some of them take a tiny handkerchief to match, to peep out of the pocket. The neckline is creeping up, assisted by the turtle neck, or a scarf wound aroynd the throat. Sweater blouses and pleated skirts— the “uniform” of the day. Since fullness has definitely been ac cepted by fashion, the newest place to wear it is in the back, ‘which quite re verses the situation. A deep, rich bishop purple has sudden ly become very important, especially in hats. The reports or. fall fashions stress the extreme masculinity of the mode. Ac cording to Paris, we won’t be able to tell the- sexes. The jacquert patterns that we see in sweaters have been transferred to swim ming suts. And speaking of swimming, the beaches promise to be a riot of color, judging by the gaiety of the suits shown. The modern spirit finds expression in painting the mode with gny, futuristic, angular designs. Straight line frocks of washable striped sports silks lead the march for summer. Summer slipper to match light frocks come in doeskin or kid in champagne, Nile or pale blue, and are completely simple. The newest ensembles do not match. They are far more effective if they con trast. A sheer georgette coat veiling a dress of another color produces an exquisite color effect. “ For the bolero frock, a waistcoat of lace insertion is a dainty touch. In hats, velvet with felt or straw is seen everywhere, most often with a pearl pin as its only trimming. A medium size square silk handker chief tied around the throat is decidedly chic, if one can wear it. Washable doeskin gloves in white or beige should accompany the sumer cos tume—practical, economical and smart. Turquoise blue with a bit of green mixed in is the newest color in felt bats. This shade has far more charac ter than real turquoise might have. A new, roughter-finish fabric promises to rival kasha this fall. If a frock of taffeta is not to your taste, put diagonal flounces of it on the bottom of a straight-line frock, and it will be the last word. Black is in demand for sheer dinner frocks. t Many coats take rounded corners and a slight flare. For t|je tailored suit, the newest blouse to accompany it is qt fine Jersey trimmed with crepe. 1 The silhouette has changed subtle— yet the freer movement of the mew line, somehow makes the perfectly straight frock seem old. Chalk • colors are the favorite —soft, yet bright, and the most interesting is a bright blue that looks like indigo. Hand bags are very striking. They come in the gayest, brightest coloks.

' “Why?” “She went to a pnrty last night' where (they played n game in which the men either had to kiss a girl or pay a forfeit of a bov of candy.” - < “Well, how was your sister lucky?” “She came home with 13 boxes of candy.” “White's a flapper?” “A flapper is a girl who <1 reuses like , a Girl Scout when she ain’t.” “Brothers and Sisters,” said the min ister. “at the ’nst day there are going to he sheep and there are going to be goats. Who's going to be the sheep and who’s going to be the goats?” An Irishman sitting in the back of the church, who hnd .suddenly awakened from a snooze, rose and said: “Oi’ll be the gqat. Go on; tell us the joke.” Little Girl—Yon are a lucky boy, working for a confectioner and able to eat ns many lovely cakes and pie and candies as you like. Boy—Nothin’ doin’. The boss won’t let me. I have to be satisfied with tick ling them. I “How wou’d you classify a telephone girl? Is it a business or a profession? “Neither. It’s- a calling.” Teacher—Why do you always add up wrongly? Scholar—T don’t know. Teacher—Does* anyone help you? Scholar—Yes ; my father. Teacher—What is he? Scholar —A waiter. “What is your name, my boy?” ask the visitor to the hotel, when the bell bo.v brought his shoes. “They call me Billiard Cure.” answered the boy. “What a funny name. Why do they ca’l you that?” “Because I work so much better w! ’. a tip.” ‘‘The worse thing about being a bache lor is that one’s name dies with one.” “What is your name?” “Smith.” Business Caller—Are you sure the ad vertising manager is not in? Flapper Clerk—Sa-ay, do you doubt his word m'ster? At ttie Plumbers Expense “Why didn’t Alice get engaged to that plumber?” “He would only propose n few.words at a time, and then go away.” TODAY’S EVENTS ' Thursday. June 11. 1925.

Going-Oil In Goochville Monroe Enquirer. While taking a bath Saturday niter noon Clarence Wetmore lost control of the piece of soap. He stepped from the tub to retrieve it, and in so doing step ped on the cake. The result was that Clarence shot out the open window on to a tin roof and from there into a bed of geraniums besides the house. Fertu natelv no one saw the incident, so he hurried up the back stairs and finished his hath. An engineenring corps has begun to survey Willin’s pasture for the purpose of cutting it up into building lots. This real estate developement is to be known as BeechwooJ Manor, and two h’ghly ornamented gate posts are to be erected where the old wooden gate now stands. Greater Gochville is on the way and»the cow. like the buffalo, will soon have no place to go. The dust is so thick on Main street these days that Seth Tomlinson had to dig around in it for half an hour Mon day before, he could find a dime which he had accidently dropped. Henry Tate went to a husking bee last Saturday night out east of town , and he reports that he had a fine time, i Every red kernel you found allowed you to kiss one of the girls and Henry had gone to the party with a large size bottle of led . ink in"his pocket- A confidence man was run out of totvn Wednesday afternoon by Constable ■ Glenn. The was attempting to : sell g-pld bricks to several of our promi l nent citizens. New York papers please copy, as he wpa headed east and has prabably gone t were up to our waists in the slime and blubber of an old. semi-tropical swamp. The whole group of us were covered for an instant by a canopy of leathery wings. To ifiake matters worse, the place seemed to be a favorite breeding place of- the Jaracaca snake, the most venomous and aggressive in South America. Again and again these horrible creatures came writhing and springing towards us across the surface of this putrid bog, and it was only by keeping our shot-guns for ever ready that we could feel safe from them. One funnel-shaped depression in the morass, of a livid green In' color from some lichen which festered in It, will always remain as a night mare memory in my mind. It seems to hhve been a special nest at these vermins, and the slopes were alive with them, all writhing in our direction, for it is apeCullar ity of the Jaracaca that he will always attack man at first sight. There were too many for us to shoot, so we fairly took* to our heels and ran until* we were ex hausted. I shall always remem ber as we looked back how far be hind we could see the heads and necks of our horrible pursuers rising -and falling amid the reeds. Jaracaca Swamp we named it in the map which we are construct ing. The cliffs upon the farther side had lost their ruddy tint, being chocolate-brown in color; the vegetation was more scattered along the top of them, and they had sunk to three or four hundred feet in height, but In no place did we find any point where they could be ascended. If anything, they were more Impossible than at the point where we had met them. Their absolute steepness Is 1 indicated In the photograph which I took over the stony desert “Surely,” said I, as we discussed the situation, “the rain mast find its way down somehow. There are bound to be water-channels in the rocks.” "Our young friend has glimpses of lucidity.** said Professor Chat- I . ■ leng&r, patting me upon the shoo)- , der. “The rain must go somewhere"' I repeated. “He keeps a firm grip upon act uality. The only drawback is that we have conclusively proved by ocular demonstration that there are no water channels down the. rocks.” "Where, then, does It go?” X persisted. “1 think it may be tairly assum ed that if it does not come out wardp it must run inwards.” "Then there is a lake in the cen ter.” “So I should suppose.” “It is more than likely that the < lake may be an old crater,” said ] Summerlee. “The whole forma- i tion is, of coarse, highly volcanic. ] But, however that may be, I should i expect to find the surface of the j plateau slope inwards with a con- i siderable sheet of water In the ' center, which may drain off, by i some subterranean channel, into ] the marshes of the Jaracaca Swamp.” “Or evaporation might preserve i an etyiilibrium,” remarked Chal lenger, and the two learned men wandered off inK, one »f their usual scientific arguments, which were as incomprehensible as Chi nese to the layman. On the sixth day we completed our first circuit of the cliffs, and found ourselves back at the first camp, beside the isolated pinnacle of rock. We were a disconsolate party, for nothing could have been more minute than our inves tigation, and it was absolutely cer tain that there was no single point ■< where the most active human be , lng could possibly hops to scale i the cliff. The place which Maple J White’s chalk-marks had indicated i as his own means of access was j now entirely impassable. What are.we to do now? Our ! stores of provisions, supplemented i by our guns, were holding out well, J but the day must come when they l would need replenishment. In a ] couple of months the rains might i be expected, and we should be j washed out of our camp. The rock i was harder than marble, and any J attempt at cutting a path for so I great a height was more than our j time or resources would admit. j No wondpr that, we looked gloom- j ily at each other that night, and i sought our blankdts with hardly 1 i a word exchanged. I remejnber that as I dropped off to sleep my i last recollection wa3 that Challen i ger was squatting, like a mon i strous bull-frog, by the fire, tps ! huge head in his hands, sunk ap i parently in the deepest thought, i and entirely oblivious to the good : night which I wished him. • But it was a very different Chal -1 lenger who greeted us in the morn ! ing—a Challenger with content ment and self-congrptulation shin -1 ing from his whole person. He ' faced us as we assembled for ; breakfast with a deprecating false ■ modesty in his eyes, as who should 1 say, “I know that I deserve all that you can say, but I pray you to spare my blushes by not saying ! it.” His beard bristled exultantly, his chest was thrown out, and his hand was thrust into the front of his jacket. So, in his fancy, may he see himself sometimes, gracing the vacant pedestal in Trafalgar Square, and adding one more to the horrors of the London streets. “Eureka!” he cried, his teeth shining through his beard. “Gen tlemen, you may congratulate me and w 4 may congratulate each other. The problem is solved.” “You have found away up?” "I venture to think so." “And where?” For answer he pointed to the spire-like pinnacle upon our right. Our facet —or mine, at least'— fell as Vw surveyed it. That it could be clhwhed we had our com panion’s assurance. But a horrible abyss lay between it and the pla teau. “We can never get acro*P, * gasped. > “We can at least all reach tfeb summit,” said he. “When we are up I may be able to show you that the resources of an Inventive min 4 1 are not yet exhausted.” (To Be Continued) i i . r Y'-' ’ "■ '''■ l 13000000000000000000000000C00000900000000000000000000a 1 BELL-H ARRIS FURNITURE CO. !i I RED SEAL.
