EUnRi, It The Aviator Who 'on the Honor ot Crossing English Channel Meets Death FAMOUS ENGLISH AVIA TOR MEETS DEATH. (By Leased Wire to Enterprise.) Bournemouth, Eng., July 12. Chas. Stuart Rolls, the famous English aviator, who only a short time ago won the honor of being the only man to make a round across the English channel from England to France, was killed today while Hying in the Wright machine. The accident came sud denly to the great crowd who was watching the aviator, when THE GREAT DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION. On next Thursday at noon in the city of Charlotte the Demo cratic state convention will con vene and will be called to order by Senator Lee S. Overman. The convention meets for the nomin ation of three Supreme Court Jus tices, and two Corporation Com missioners. This is an off year convention and will be uiet from the fact that there will not be a single contest or heated fight in the assembly. Of the three places on the Supreme Court bench which are to be filled, there is no contest except that created by the appointment of Judge Conner by Pres. Taft to the Federal Judge ship. The two candidates for this office are Judge Manning, who was appointed temporarily by the Governor and Judge Allen of Cioldsloro, who is now on the Superior Court bench. The fight between Manning and Allen will be decidedly the event of the Con vention as both have waged a very strenuous campaign though only one ballot is necessary, be ing determined practically before the Convention meets. It is con sidered that their light, is simply a reflect ion of the great battle of three years ago between Craige and Kitchin, Justice Manning be ing the campaign manager of the successful candidate for Govern or at that time. Justice Walter Clark and I 'la 1 1 Walker's nomin ation will be without opposition. The Corporation Commissioners, of whom there are only two to be nominated, are based upon the vote of the primary and it is only a question of a roll call of (he counties to see who is nominated. The convention will probably complete its work in one day and adjourn Thursday night. Among the delegates who will attend from High Point are: Mayor F. N. Tate, S. L. Davis, J. I-:. Kirkman, T. J. Gold, W. G. Bradshaw, W. II. Ragan, J J. Farriss. MUSIC LOVERS CLUB. The Music Lovers Club will meet tonight at eight o'clock with Miss Ethel Pickett at her home on North Main street. A large attendance is desired. SPIDERS SAY THAT THEY SPIN ANSWER TO SNOOZERS The Spiders note with joy that the Snoozers have at last decided to play (hem another game at Willowbrook park. They will be present in full force Saturday af ternoon and are determined tq spin such a web around the Snoozers that they will never say baseball again. We are satisfied that there will be a good game and hope every person possible will be 'out to witness it. In ad dition to being treated to a good game you will be helping the Civic League in beautifying the city. apparently his machine suddenly turned a summersault and crash ed to the ground, crushing the aviator to death, directly opposite the immense grandstand in view of thousands of pectators. He had ascended to a height of 125 feet when his machine went wrong. He tried to extri cate himself, but the drop was too swift. Just before this M. Audoss, the French aviator had experienced a similar fall, but was not seriously hurt. AGREES WITH MAYOR TATE. Mr. W. I). Simmons, proprietor of the Eagle theater, stated to the Enterprise today that he is thor oughly in accord with the orders given the Chief of Police by Mayor Tate to suppress the ex hibition of any pictures exhibiting prize fighting in this city. 'Mr. Simmons in the past has always refused t take this line of pic tures whenever they were sent to him. While other nearby cities have exhibited boxing matches and prize fights he has always been careful to select the class of pictures that he was able to judge of before hand as being the most suitable and instructive.
