It becomes at once apparent {hat,
were one to make a composite pic

would find the silhouette of the
hour that of the slim two-piece
suit, and the fabric that makes to

perhaps a fine, close sweater*

light and cool balbriggan.
1 So very smart is this knitted
two-piece suit, with its youthful
pullover that features plain button
ing at the neckline and its slim
and simple skirt—it has become
the dominant style for summertime
wardrobes.

WOMAN HITS CAR IN FRONT J
* V ' SENDING IT INTO DITCH j
Oievrriet of Mias Irene McConnell Dam
aged by Woman Who Flees After Acci
dent.
Miss Irene McConnell, in driving to
wggd Charlotte this morning, had her
CWvrolet car badly damaged when a wom
an giving her name as Jewett Burnelle
bumped into the rear of the car, sending
it flying off the fill and into the nearby
field and ditch.
Neither Miss McConnell nor Mrs. Sar
ly Lafferty, Miss Cornelia Lafferty and
Mrs. Bessie McConnell, passengers in the
enr at the time,, were injured otherwise
than receiving a severe fright. They
were brought back ’to Concord after the
accident by persons who stopped to view
the wreck.
According to the story told by Mrs.
McConnell, the four of them had started
to Charlotte and were near the John L.
Query farm when they came upon paint
,eys engaged in re-marking the white line
in the middle of the road. The custom
ary little flags had been placed on the
road to prevent persons from driving ov
er the line.
Soon after they 1 started around the
curve, the woman, Jewett Burnelle, drove
behind them and started honking her
horn for them to peed up, Mi*. Mc-
Connell said. They were on the right
side of the road and did not care to go
faster and so paid no attention to. her
repeated blowing. When the end of the
painting was reached, Miss Burnelle. at
tempted to pass them and as she did so
the front bumper of her, Jewett touring
enr sent the Che'vrolet spinning off the
roadside.
Two men who were approaching saw
the accident and when they saw that
Miss Burnelle had not stopped, they gave
chase and caught her, forcing her to re
turn around and go back to the scene of
the nccident. She declared-fhat'she ’did
not know she had hit the Chevrolet.
After some moments of conversation,-
it was decided that she drive back to
Concord where she was to confer further
with Miss McConnell as to the settlement
for the .damages. Getting in her car
with a man who had driven up in the
meantime, she started in the direction of
Concord. She did not stop here, howev
er, despite the fact that the injured party
had her automobile number.
A call was immediately sent out from
local police station to .Salisbury to stop
her if she should come there and an ef
fort was made to trace jier in any other
nearby towns. ,
Post and Flagg Cotton Letter.
lSe^ T York, June 18.—The market eon
tinues to show a very firm tone, though l ,
the opinion is expressed in some Quar
ters that the market is perhaps discount
ing a little too hastily and fully a pos
sible drop in June cond-tipn rather than
a gain. Unite®, however,,,there are..good
general rains i n the southwest in the
course of the next week or so the situa
tion there could result in .such a drop
in condition for that state as vi-dui 1
mean a sharp reduction for the belt? ns
a whole., The worst of it is that this is
the time for favorable reports and> the
period when damage may properly be
expected is junt arriving.
Sentiment appears to be undergoing
a change though demand from specula
tive sources is still chiefly to ’ coyer
shorts and very little for. long account.
The feeling is that the long intrsts is
largly in the hands of the foreign trade
who also have control of the major por
tion of the visible supply which they are
not likely to relinquish readily and only
■ in case of a very marked improvement
in the nupply outlook which is a doubt
ful matter during the next 60 days
when deterioration instead of improve
’ ment is usual'.v the order of the day
■ In a weather market well committed
• to the side price movements have about
the same regularity ns those of a weath
ervane. It looks, however, thnt events
are so shaping themselves as to bring
satisfactory resuPn to those who had
the courage to take • n contracts during
• the recent period of easy markets re
sulting from pressure of speculative
short sales.

Negro Charged With Serious Crime
in Salisbury Is Speechless and Takes

1 Speeches* from the self-inflicted bul
let wound in the right temple, Joe
Shack, negro, charged with attempt to
Criminally assault a white woman at her
home just east of the eity last Satur
day morning, continues to mark time as
he lies on a cot in one of the inner
corridors of the Mecklenburg county jail
at Charlotte, where he was taken by
Sheriff Krider and others Saturday night,
this action being taken out of an abun
dance of precaution.
Sheriff Krider, County Healt|i Officer
Dr. C. IV, Armstrong, Dr. It. J. Plyler
and a represenative of The Post, motored
to . Charlotte yesterday afternoon, the
.sheriff and doctor* going down to get
first hand information as to how the
wounded negro was getting along. His
condition shows little if any improve
ment. According to-prison attendants
he .has Hot spoken a word since he was.
placed in the Charlotte jail and has tak
en very little nourishment, only a- little
milk and supping lii.s first water yester
day afternoon. Every effort of the doc
tors to have him talk yesterday was
fruitless. He lies stretched out on his
cot apparently- in a dazed -condition and
does not litetice anything to any marked
extent. It was the belief, of the phy
sicians, after nearly al hour with him,
that he may possibly be conscious but
that the bullet wound may have rendered
him speechless. At the best he is in
.a bad way and news of his death at any
time would occasion no surprise.

Salisbury, June 18.—Among the hun-'|
dreds of boys and girls gathered here i
from all parts of the state for the B. J

member of this year’s senior class at 1
IVake Forest College and active in many j ]
of the activities of the college, and Hiss I (
Hattin Boon. Murfreesboro, foster datigh- I
ter of Rev. H. G. Bryant and a former ]
Meredith girl, were married in Charlotte' (
Wednesday afternoon. The young cou- j 1
pl(; have been sweethearts for some time 1 1
but there had been barriers ip the way I
of their marriage. They were all re- ]
moved yesterd aywhen Mrs. Tarlton left
a note in her room where she was stpo
ping in Spencer to her father telling him
that she had gone to Charlotte to be
margied. A telegram to Rev. Mr.
Bryant later confirmed the romance.
