OUKRAINSKY’S LOYALTY
TO HIS ART AND PUBLIC
Great Dancer Gives Performance in
Mexico City Despite Fact That He
Was Badly Injured.
The long arm of coincidence per
forms many strange tricks, as: wit
ness the experience of Serge Ousrain
skv, of the Pavley-Oukrainsky Ballet,
appearing at the High School audi
torium next Tuesday.
Mr. Oukrainsk.v's career as a bal
let dancer came near being ended in
Mexico City last spring.
When the Pavley-Oukrainsky Bal
let was engaged for a live weeks sea
son in the Mexican capital the .ad
vance demand for seats was so great
that it was decided to give the per
formances in the large arena which
is ordinarily used for the great Span
ish sport of ball fighting. A stage
was built in the arena facing what
would be called the ‘'grandstand
seats" in fills country, and this stage
was not entirely completed when the
ballet arrived.
On the morning preceding the first
performance. Mr. Oukrainsky called
a rehearsal, and the workmen who
were putting the finishing touches on
the improvised stage withdrew, leav
ing the structure to the ballet. Mr.
Oukrainsky was standing in front of
the ensemble of ballet girls giving
them some directions when suddenly
from far above in the flies a heavy
piece of timber came hurtling down.
Mr. Oukrainsky jumped back, but
"not quite .far enough, for the timber
in its descent eanght him a glancing
b'ow on the head, rendering him un
conscious. He was removed to the
hospital, ordinarily used for injured
bull fighters, and a physician discov
ered that he had a gash seven inches
long across the head.
Ij was believed it would be im
possible for him to take part in the
performance that night, but when the
local manager, who had bc<oked the
| ballet in Mexico City expressed re-
I gret at a change of program. Mr. Ouk
rainsky, despite the fact that he was
I suffering * agony, resolved to go on.
He did so, but collapsed immediately
after the performance. The coinei
i dental part of this is that the bal'et
I in which he was to appear was “Sam
! son and Delilah" in which, as part
of the performance, the blind Sam
son. his strength returned, pushes
over the pillars of the temple which
in falling crush him beneath them.
More Big Things For Stanly.
Stanly News-Herald.
There seems to be little doubt but
that work is to start within the next
few weeks or months on another big
power dam on Stanly’s eastern bor
der. For several years it has been
I recognized that the Carolina Power
i & Light Company has had its eye
jon the power possibilities of the
Great Pee Dee at two points where it
| winds its way along the eastern bor
' der of this county. One of these sites
was at Swift Island and the other sev
eral miles lower down near Norwood.
It is understood that the company at
one time contemplated two dams, one
at each point, but if current reports,
, which seem to be well founded, be
, true, the company will build only one,
i dam—a big one—and it is to be built
. near the town of Norwood, and to l>e
i high enough to buck the water up to
| the lower Badiu dam. above Swift Is
land. That will mean that every
foot of the Yadkin and Pee Dee along
the eastern border of Stanly will have
been utilized and developed. It will
mean greater commercial and indus
trial opportunities for this town and
county, and brings the prediction of
Mr. Bion Butler that "this genera
<ion will see Stanly County the home
of upwards of a million," a step near
er. There is no telling what may be
in store for this entire section of the
State in a very short time. It is too
much to predict that many of those
not yet old men here may live to see
Albemarle with a population of sev
eral hundred thousand.
3 Tiie Passing of Senator Foil.
1 1 Charlotte Observer,
j. Concord has lost one of its most
, active promoters and Cabarrus conn
i j ty one of its most enthusiastic cham-
J pione in the death of Major-Senator
I IV. A. Foil, for he was conspicuous
| ;in both military and civic service. In
j j recent years lie was brought mere
l I prominently before tbe people of the
1 1 state as a senator from the twentieth
1 district, composed of Cabarrus and
Mecklenburg, and in the State capitol
>; he proved anything but a dummy. He
, was particularly devoted to the cause
| of the Confederate veteran and liiN
last public effort was in the direc
tion of amending a condition of in
equality that exists in the pension
law. He took leadership in all pro
gressive directions- and had gained
a position of l-espeet, and influence
among hip fellow senators. Major
| Foil was active in all tpovements for
the welfare of town and county and
in his later years proved a citizen
of invaluable service. He was a
[• man of attraotive personality and had
about as many friends and admirers’
in Mecklenburg as surrounded him
in his natiVe county. He will bei
missed from the activities of the com-1
munit.v from which he has dropped
and he will be missed in political and
I constructive circles at Raleigh.

.THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE
SLEEPING QUARTERS IN
CITY HALL BEING USED
Almost Every Night Now Some
Stranger Asks Police Officers foe
Place to Sleep.
Sleeping quarters maintained by ihe
city on the third floor of the city
hail, are being used with regularity
now. In most instances persons us
ing the quarters are headed home
from Florida, being unable to pay for
lodging in a hotel or private home.
The city keeps several beds in the
quarters and no charge is made for
their use. Persons wanting a place
to sleep anfl able to show they are
not professional beggars are taken
care of there by the city.
Five strangers were quartered by
tbe city last night, police officers re
ported this morning. These strang
ers. all men. were headed north and
east from Florida where they spent
all their money after being unable to
secure work. Two of them stated
they had autos in Florida but had to
store them until they can get money
enough to run them back home.
Otic of the men who spent the night
here was a carpenter. He said he
had been in Florida for several months
but lack of building materials made
it impossib’c for him to make a liv
ing. He could get plenty of work,
he said, when there was anything to
work with.
Two of the strangers said they
drove autos for :t Florida concern but
when pay-day came their manager
could nog be found. They were in a
party that drove 2.500 ears from one
city to another but they could not
find the man with the money when
they reached their destination. These
men talked intelligently not only of
conditions in Florida but of national
and international arY ; s . IV , showing
the effects es a training they said
they received ill a big eastern col
lege.
STUBBORN BLAZE IX
BASEMENT OF JAIL
Dense Smoke Handicapped Work of
Firemen Who Had Trobule Reach
ing Fire.
The basement of the county jail
was sightly dauingod this morning
when papers and boards used to fire
the furnace which heats the jail and
e-urt ’house became ignited. Dense
smoke handicapped the work of the
lire m eu.
The blaze was discovered about
9:15 this morning when smoke began
pouring from windows and doors of
the jail basement. At first no blaze
could be seen through the smoke but
after the firemen used chemicals for
some time they cleared the basement
sufficient to locate the fire.
Firemen could not get into the
basement when they first reached the
jail on account of the smoke. Water
and chemicals soon extinguished the
blaze with Jittlc damage to the build
ing.
It was necessary to cut a hole
through one of the basement walls os
the stream of water e< uld be played
on the pile of papers and, kindling
in which the lire started.
Prisoners in the jail were not, re
moved as the blaze never assumed
serious proportions.
..eward For Slayer of “Dad” Watkins
Stanly News Herald.
Last week The News-Herald noted
mat the beard of County commission
ers had offered a reward of $3(10 to
the person furnishing evidence suffi
cient to convict the person or per
sons who murdered "Dad" Watkins
and threw his body in a buru'ng barn
on the night of October 31st. To this
S3OO. Governor McLean lias added
S2OO, making the total amount to
SOOO. That amount is worth going
after, and that some slick sleuth will
soon be on the trail of the murderer,
there is little doubt, and although it
may require some time to secure suf
ficient evidence upon which a prosecu
tion can be based, yet it is pretty
eei-ta'n that the time is not so far
ahead when the country may have
its eyes on the party who committed
that awful crime. It is known that
several are at work on the job al
ready and certain parties are under
the closest surveilance almost con
stantly. without knowing it.

CHAS C. MOORE WRITES OF
UOI, HARRIS' EARLY WORK
Ilk Friend of » Half Century Tolh)
Tab's Over Course es Long Career.
Charlotte Observer.
Now that Col. Wade Harris editor
of The Charlotte Observe;-, is enter
ing upon his second half century of
North Carolina journalism and hi;
readers and fellows of the fourth es
tate are preparing to celebrate the oc
casion. i-mncs C. C. Moore, former
Mecklenburg county clerk of super
ior 'court, with interesting reminis
cences on the colonel's early work as
a scribe and a reporter.
Mr. Moore is spending a while in
Asheville and writes from there. His
letter was addressed to the managing
editor of The Observer. Colonel Har
ris will have first knowledge of the
resurrection of his yarn as to the
wonderful Cabarrus county pumpkins
at breakfast table this morning along
with the other readers.
“One time a youth at school in
the Poplar Tent community of Ca
barrus county,” Mr. Moore writes,
“was inspired to write to the Con
cord Sun. His subject was 'Pump
kins and Corn'—on the farm of Col.
.1. Shakespeare Harris. He describ
ed tin- growth of the pumpkin' vines
as being so fast that the little pump
kins could not keep up with the vines
He said that the corn was so tall and
dense that it was dark at noontim*
and the lightn'ng bugs were flashint
as if it were night.
‘•The communication wnj signed •
‘Wade H. Harris.’
“My next reading after the youth
ful contributor was his reporting ti
grea- event of much interest in our
section —commencement at Davidsor
College. I wish I could reproduce that
write-up of the oratorical achieve
ments of Frank I. Osborne, W. C
Maxwell. Tlios. H. Brem, Alex Sprnnt
Lash Gaither and others. All of
those soared fluently over the head;
of the aud'ence, but their efforts weri
completely overshadowed in the re

Cock Fight Story.
‘‘Along about 1575, our eentennia'
year, young Harris came to Char
lotto and began reporting for The Ob
server. What he wrote for the pa
pers in those days would now be ques
tioped as to the truth. It was true
however. His report of the cook tigh
in the rear of "Our House' was accu
rate to the finish, when Col. Ton
Black's ‘Flirty Eye’ cock was the vie
toe
“His description of the fight in tilt
rear of Klias and Cohn's store at the
t'me Cap Orr whipped four white
men and a negro. Cap finally submit
ting to arrest to his one-armed broth
er Joe Orr. was far more thrilling than
is anything on the sport page of to
day.
“Young Harris did not devote all
his time to cock fights back lot fights
or to notable affairs on the 'warpath'
'round about.
“His vision went far ahead to what
cii rlotte would be some day. He
m%lo suggestions. He toid what was
m-fdetj. Ho pleaded for the right, he
condemned the wrong, he was fair and
impartial in all his reporting.
Always a Booster.
"Oner a rival paper took a fling at
Wade. My recollection of it is ‘hotel
c hit-chat lie does not build a town.'
Wade made it a jioi’it to button-l Kile
every man of importance who came
l« the hotel. He had away of get
ting the opinions of those men ns to
what they thought of Charlotte. Wade
would then boost tbe town on his re
port of these interviews.
■'*l have traveled often with him. I
hay{ not'ced how, without pencil or
notebook he would gather matter suf
ficient on a day's trip to fill column
after column of description of what
In saw or heard.
"While he lias always held Char
lotta first, lie has been a groat booster
of western Carolina and the piedmont
section. His information about these
has gone fnr and wide and the value
of it in dollars and cents can not be
estimated.
Mountain Series.
During the pnsr summer Mr. Har
ris so entertniu ng'y wrote of the
wonders of our mountain country.
Thousands of iieoide had never known
that we had such rough but inspiring
country almost at onr door.
“But who has read the editorial

guard their children, the plea to the
child to live right?
