AVOID HITTING AUTOMOBILE
Driver Cute Into Y. M. C. A. Fence
When Car .Suddenly Turns in
Front of Him.
One of the big inter-city busses,
traveling from Greensboro to Char

take to the sidewalk and barbed-wire
fence at the Y. M. C. A. to avoid hit
ting an automdbile which suddenly
turned out in the street in front of it.
No damage was done other than
tearing out a section of the Y fence
and frightening the passengers of the
bus badly.
As is customary oh such occasions,
a large crowd of persons gathered
immediately afterward and stood
around until the bu(<' w-tys able to d:s
enianitle itself from the' fence it had
run into and drive off.
According to persons who reached
the scene of the accident soon tifter it
occurred, the bus was driving down
North I'nion (Street at a moderate
rate when the ear parked on the
side of the street suddenly pulled
out. To have stopped suddenly would
have meant that the line of cars be
hind would have probably had a smash,
said the bus driver, anil to have kept
going at his same speed would have
meant running into the car iri Sront.
so he took to the sidewalk.

New Pastor of Bay less Memorial and
Brown Mill Churches.
Rev. Waldo P. Robertson, for a
number of years pastor of two large
country churches—Cross Roads and
Stony Creek—in Alamance county,
near Mebane, N. C., has accepted a
call to Bayiess Memorial and Brown
Mill Presbyterian ehurriies; taking
up his work ou Sunday, November
Ist, 1825.
Mr. Robertson comes highly rec
ommended hath as a preacher and a
pastor. Being a man pf pleasing per
sonality and winsome nature, it was
with reluctance that he was released
from liis labors in Alamance.
Bayless Memorial and Brown Mill
are extremely fortunate in securing
the services of one so highly recom
mended and successful in his past
labors. >
Rev. and Mrs. Robertson are both
taking courses in certain departments
of Sunday School work; and this,
ndded to tlie above recommendations,
will supply these two churches with
the best equipment for tlie service of
the Master that they have had in re
cent years.
Let us all work and pray that the
Lord's Kingdom muy be furthered in
Concord through dur co-operation
with these good people.
A MEMBER.
Durham People Will Remember This.
Durham County lb-ogress.
Regardless of whatever engagement
lie bad previously mhde, regardless of
the fact that he was scheduled to
open the North Carolina Fair, Gov
ernor Angus Wilton McLean should
have cast aside all engagements and
have traveled the t\benty-six miles be
tween Durham and Raleigh to attend
the funeral of the late James B.
Duke.
That he did not do so but resorted
to the simple and commercial method
of sending his regrets by telegraph,
shows that Governor McLean is not
as great a diplomat, is pot as great
a citizen of thg state, is not as great
a leader as some would have, us be
lieve.
When a man as great as James
15. Duke, a man who has done as
much for North Carolina and for tlie
nation as James 15. Duke has done,
dies, it is the least that the governor
of liis native stale of that man can do
to attend the filiteral service over his
body, especially so when the service
is conducted only a few miles away.
It made no material difference
whether Governor McLeali. as a man,
attended the funeral serviced But
while he is governor of North Caro
lina. Angus Wilton McLean repre
sents tfie people of the state—he is,
in a measure, the state and the state
was in mourning and bowed down
.with griew Tuesday morning when
the mortal remains of Mr. Duke were
laid at rest. Yet the governor saw
fit to' open a fair at Raleigh instead
of attending the funeral service in
Durham.
It is a slight which Durham peo*
pie will never forget and one which
the governor will never be able to of
fer an excuse for committing.
He has demonstrated liis real spirit
by his attitude and that speaks loud
er than the written or the spoken
word, 'y
An Unlovely Mess in State of Texas.
Raleigh Times.
Mu Ferguson, who is being accused
of extravagance hnd perhaps worse in
her conduct of the Slate highway de
partment of Texas, advises those who
are bringing the charges to take them
before a grand jury. The Speaker of
the House says that if Ma does not
as Governor call a special session of
, the Legislature, he is going to do
that same.
Prospects ary for- the special ess
sion with a row once more featuring
Mu's husband Jim, who appears to be
her worst fault. It has been contin
ually charged si me Mu took office
that Jim was really Governor and that
he lias been practicing all previously
known forms of graft and devising
new ones.
It is a most unlovely situation at
best; but the State of Texas is lo
blame for it. The election of a wom
an as governor whose candidacy was
based on lier desire to vindicate a
husband who had been impeached by
the Legislature—a well-nigh impossl
ble undertaking if Jim had not been
guilty of flagrant abuse of his office—
was so patently foolish that even the
simplest should have known that it
would result in confusion.
Now Jim must be brought from be
hind his wife’s skirts uud given hell
all over again. It’s a nice mess, isn’t

Another Attack, Another Mob
Asheville. Oct. 29. J 200 or
more people formed ton Pack Square

I Neely, a negro arrested earlier in the
day on a charge of attacking a West
' Asheville white woman last Thursday
afternoon, and Sheriff's deputies were
speeding toward Raleigh with the ne
gro, another negro was attempting to
attack a white woman on Broadway,
one of the city’s principal business
streets.
The negro who is alleged to have
attempted to attack the woman tonight
was arrested after a chase by eitiaens
and officers, the lattqr being called
by the husband of the woman who
had left her to make a small purchase
in a nearby store. The alleged assail
ant was placed in the Buncombe Coun
ty jail. Whether or not it was plan
i ned to take him from the city could
not be learned.
Prominent Men in It.
City and county authorities were
pleading all during the nightjvjth va
rious citizens to use their influence
with the mob to prevent violence. In
this crowd tonight, different from that
of some weeks ago. it was said that
some of the city's most substantial
citizens were members. The promi
nence of the woman attacked Thurs
day was given as the reason for this.
The alleged attack of Neely was the
third of its kind within the six past I
week's and the attempt of the negro j
tonight added fuel to the flames of in
; digriation which are to be seen on the
faces of the hundreds of people who
have gathered together in groups in
and about the city.
NO ESCAPE FOR THE

Washington, Oct- 26.—The ques-

In other words what’s the use of

necessities of life which have been

producers? The experts insist that if

The woman was attacked last week

MOUNTAIN COUNTIES ARE
THE MOST HEALTHFUL;
Climate in That Section Seams to Be
Most Conducive to Health.
Raleigh Oct. 26.—OP)—What sec
tion of North Carolina is most health
ful?
distinction appears to go to
the mountain counties of the north
western part of the state. Whether
cr not the climate is most conducive
| to health in that section, .there are
i fewer deaths in those counties, in pro
! portion to population than elsewhere
' in the state. This is shown by fig
ures compiled by the bureau of vital
statistics of the State board of health
and contained in that .bureau's annual
report just published.
The figures show that of 2T coun
ties having fewer than ten deaths in
1(124 per thousand population, seven
were in the mountainous northwest
! era section of the state. Those coun
ties are Avery, Ashe. Yancey, Alex
ander, Alleghany, Yadkin and Surr/.
Avery county last year had the
second lowest death rate of any in
the state, the lowest death rate be
ing that in Graham, another moun
tain county, but in the southwestern
part of the state. A slightly higher
death ritte is reported in Ashe and
Yancey, with exactly the same death
rate, these two counties standing third
from the top of counties in low death
rate.
Alexander, another of the north
western mountain counties, had the
fifth lowest death rate, with Alle
ghany sixth. Mitchell county, which
led the state in birth rate last year, j
is ninth. Yadkin, another north- 1
western county, had the same num-!
her of deaths per thousand popula
don as Stpnly and Gates, eastern
counties, 13th position going to these
three. And Surry county’s position
is 16th.
Three other mountain counties—
Cherokee, Swain and Haywood—were
respectively eighth, tenth and elev- i
enth in standing. Ten of the eleven j
lowest death death rates in the state !
were reported from mountain counties. 1
though not all of these were in the !
northwestern part of the state. Dare. i
which had the seventh lowest death 1
l'tjte, was the only non-mountainous ]
county to hold a place in the eleven l
counties reporting the lowest rate. j
ten of the elevent counties having ]
the lowest death rates being moun-H
tain counties of the western half of J
the state, and five of them being in i
the northwestern corner of the state. I
