After all the agitation incident to the routing of the new federal high way from tbe Virginia line through North Carolina, the federal govern ment at last has adopted the route and Concord is one city that will be served by the highway. It has just been learned that the! route as adopted by the government, ’ enters North Carolina from Vifginia at a point just north of Sparta and, runs tnrough Elkin,/ Harmony, States ville! Salisbury, Concord, Charlotte, Pinevllle and on to South Carolina. W. C. Wilkinson, highway com missioner for the sixth district, has made protest to the government about the routing, but he has just been ad vised that the matter is settled and that the mups of the route are being prepared now. Mr. .Wilkinson’s argument, aeeord- J ing to a letter he sent to Washing ton and which has been made public, is that the route sends traffic about 2T> miles out of its way. By routing the highway from Statesville to Salis bury and Concord and then to Char lotte, Mr. Wilkinson saye, traffic is made to go about twiee as far as it is about the same distance from Statesville to Salisbury as.it. is from Statesville to Charlotte. Concord fought for the route via Mt. Airy, Winston-Salem. Lexington, Salisbury, Concord and Charlotte and officials of the-city had about given up hope of getting tlie highway when it was learned that the Sparta', Elkin, Statesvillp route had been adopted. However, according to information re ceived here, citizens ill some adjoining towns did not give up hope and when they heard the Sparta route had been Chosen they hastened to Washington and urged that the route from States ville on to Charlotte be made via Salisbury and Concord. This route lias been adopted and Commissioner 'Wilkinson has been trld that tlie work of- preparing the map has recalled that stage where it cannot be changed. The new route is expected to send l thousands of Jpurists through Con ! cord annually. 1 '‘ROSETIAtE” HAS GOOD CAST-AXD FUNNY LINES : Musical Comedy Is Being Presented in Benefit of High School Athletic Association.

HOPKISs CATCHES TWO BIG CHICKEN HAJV^S One of the Big Birds Sticks Talon -in Arm of Captor.—Has to Cut Off Leg to Get Loose. Two dangerous looking chicken hawks in a cage just outside RitChie- Caldwell Harware Store were the oc casion for the presence of a large crowd of spectators Monday after noon numbers of persons stopping to | ! examine the birds. I They were caught by C. E. Hop kins, of No. 5 township, who had been troubled by large numbers of these i birds for some tinig and who bad been forced- to set traps to catch them. During the past two months, he had taken and killed, he said, nine hawks. The pair captured Monday were ensnared not over five feet apart in steel traps. This is considered very unusual since usually when one is trapped, the others are alarmed and fly away. J In attempting to locsen the larger of the two from the trap, the bird stuck its talons into Mr. Hopkins arm and so deep did it, pierce that Mr. Hopkins was unable to get his arm loose. Knowing that the crea ture would hold on indefinitely, he tcok his pocket knife from his trous ers and hid to cut the leg of the bird almost toss before it removed its sharp claws! With one leg almost cut off ami with tho other injured from the jaws off the steel trap, the bird was' still not quelled. It looked capable, even though caged and in tlie weakened condition, to put up a good fight. Seme of the spectators pl ,t ej,eir fi„g ers close to thi cage and the’ bird immediately snapped at them. The other bird, evidently the firsi one’s mate, was not quite so beligor ent although it al«o gave evidence of being far from tame. ' The smaller of the two weighed two pounds and measured 4!) inches from ti[) to tip of wings. The larger and fiercer Was 2 i!-4 pounds and measured 50 inches. They were caught about 11 o’clock Monday morn ing. Air. Hopkins is proud of his Chick ens, lie keeps a thorough-bred flock of white wyndetts, and is doing ev erything in liis power to eradicate the hawks. He declares that lie be lieves that the fact that his chickens are white attracts the attention of tlie hawks and makes them prev of tlie big birds. l>r. Geo. W. Belk to Be Burled at Tirzaji Today.
