For the last three years, says Doyle, he has been receiv ing messages from the spirit world to this effect.

Asheville, Oct. 27.-*-l , reston Neely, negro alleged to have criuimally at tacked a west Asheville white woman Thursday afternoon, is being" held in Guilford county jail at Greensboro, for safe keeping, it was learned here this afternoon. Sheriff E. M. Mitchell, of Bun combe county, told a mob last night that the negro was being taken to j the State penitentiary at Raleigh. It is thought this information was given out to throw any of those who were preparing to make an effort to overtake the deputies and prisoner, off the track. The city was quiet tonight after *» perk'd of great excitement follow ing Che arrest of Neely yesterday afternoon and another attempted criminal attack on a white woman on one of the city’s principal streets last night about 9:30 o’clock.

Mr. j Moxlcy said, however, that Neely’s brother had been away from the res taurant for a portion-of the time.

COTTON CROP IN COUNTY BEING GINNED QUICKLY Total of 10.328 Bales Up to October 18th.—Cabarrus Crop Estimated at 812,000 Bales. Tile cotton cron in Cabarrus coun ty will be but very little short of the average yield. Ginnings in the county up to Oc tober »18th of this year totalled 10,- 328 ‘bales, according to figures made, public by George W. Lee. county statistician, while the total number of 'bales ginned to the same date last year was xmly 4,448. The increase up to date in the giu liings is attributed to the prolonged drought which had tlie effect of forc ing the crop and bringing on an earlier picking and consequently an earlier ginning. Reports coming in from the county indicate that practically the entire crop Isas been picked and it is esti mated by N. A. Archibald, cotton buyer, that between SO and 90 per cent, of the crop has been ginned. Taking the ginnings up to date and muking an - estimate on Xlr. Archi bald's figures, it may be seen fiat the probable crop will lie around 12,- 000 bales in Cabarrus county. This is about 1,000 bales short of the crop in bumper years. Predictions last summer held to an unusually small yield on account of the drought. Many of the farmers predicted that they would make less Ilian half a crop. Rrecent reports, however, from the drought section in dicate illai there will be almost as large a crop as ever while the num ber (if, bales in other sections is ma terially increased. Oil the publication of the govern ment forecast that tlie crop this year would exceed fifteen million bales the price dropped and cotton is now sell ing on the local market J«x 19 cents. Many persons who keep in touch with the market believe that file govern ment estimate has the crop at a fig ure which will greatly exceed the ac tual production.
