Hix, president of the Norfolk Southern Railway, returned to day from New York City, where his appointment as head of that system was confirmed yesterday by the board of directors. Mr. Hix was also placed on the executive committee and the board of directors of the Norfolk? Southern. Mr. Hix took up his new duties today and confirmed the report that he had appointed E. D. Kyle traf fic manager and W. A. Witt general superintendent of the Norfolk Southern road. Mr. Kyle is now freight traffic man ager of the Seaboard Air Line Rail way and will succeed B. L.

Hudson, and will go into active service on November 10 He is now division superintendent of the Seaboard, with headquarters at Jacksonville, Fla. Mr. Kyle has been in the transporta tion business for 25 years. His first pmnlnvmpnt was with tht Old Canp Fear an, Yadkin Va rQad 18g7 as transfer clerk. Three years later he went into the general freight and passenger office as chief clerk and in 1891 was made general freight and passenger agent of the Charleston Sumpter and Northern Railroad. In 1892 he was appointed soliciting freght agent of the Seaboard; he became traveling freight agent of the szme traveling treicht agent ol the same system in 1899 and in 1901 was promot ed to assistant general freight agent with headquarters at Jacksonville, Fla In December, 1911, he was appointed freight traffic manager of the Seaboard and has since served in that capacity.

Hawkins, secre tary of the Norfolk Southern, would continue in that office and would be chief clerk to the president. The office force that was u nder Mr. Hix in Ports mouth has been moved to the National Bank of Commerce Building in Norfolk. HE SAYS ONE BATH A WEEK IS NOT ENOUGH. Baltimore Physician declares Dally Plunge Is the proper Thing. Baltimore Sun. The man who rakes a bath only once a week doesn't putting it mildly bathe enough, said Dr. Frederick V. Beitler, acting secretary of the State Board of Health, who was asked all of a sudden this morning lor an interview on the most dangerous diseases of cold weather and how to avoid them. The man who takes a bath three times a week approaches the condition ich is said to be "next to godliness." The man who takes a bath every day is the only man who entirely fulfills the conditions. It may be a hot or cold bath, but it shou.ld be a daily bath. If the body reacts after a cold bath that is if the skin grows red and the body warm, then a cold bath is good, If it doesn't, then it's a daily tepid bath the man wants. No one should go into the open air immediately after a warm bath. "This bath, plenty of fresh air, good food and at least eight hours' sleep a day, should keep one in good physical condition," said Dr. Beitler. "Of course, the most important part of guarding against disesae is keeping the natural resistance of the body up to the highest point. "Among the most dangerous of the minor infections is tonsilitis, which often is followed by many acute secondary conditions, such as acute articular rheu matism, endo carditis, a disease .of the valves of the heart, often St. Vitus dance in children, and permanent en largement of the tonsils. "Gargling the throat and douching the nose with a good alkali solution, such as the doebell solution, is a good way in which to guard against this. "Of course, diptheria, influenza and the various forms of pneumonia, are the ills which occur to one at once as peculiarly dangerous in winter. "One should have a good overcoat and should wear it always when going into the cold air." .... Returning to the bath, Dr. Beitler explained: "Many of the waste products of the body are thrown off by the skin.' The bath is necessary to get rid of tbem, and the general existence ot the body is lowered if the glands are not freed from these products and permitted to func tionate unimpeded by them." Colonel Mosby is to be operated on. Fifty years ago he didn't mind either knives, bayonets or bullets, ' II1CI1 NIL UFF Dr. J. E. Turlington, of Athens, Ga., Selected Thursday by the Board of Trustees. TO TAKE UP WORK IN SPRING. School Authorities Feel That They Have Been Fortunate In Secur ing His Services. Thursday morning at 10 o'clock the Board of Trustees of the Craven County Farm Life school held a meet ing at the office of County Superin tendent S. M. Brinson. The main object of the meeting was to offer to Dr. J. E. Turlington, of Athens Ga. the po sition as principal of the school Dr. J. Y. Joyner, State Superinten dent of Public Instruction, was present and delivered a short talk to the Board and introduced Dr. Turlington. - After conference with the Board - Dr. Turlington stated that he would like to look over the site of the proposed school before coming to any decision. Mr. S. M. Brinson, Mr. A. D. Ward and Mr. Clyde Morton accompanied him to Vanceboro and a visit was paid to the place at which the school will be located, Dr. Turlington looked over the site, and examined the soil and stated that he was much pleased with all that he saw. At present Dr. Turlington is connect ed with the University of Georgia and being under contract will not be able to take up the work here until next spring, but he stated he would at once begin the work of getting up a course of studies and plans for the work and would have everything in readi ness to begin work at that time. The plans for the build ings will be drawn by the State architect. The Board have been endeavoring to secure Dr. Turlington for this position for several weeks. They knew that he he was one of the best men for this line of work rhat could possibly be found an therefore offered him great inducements. The position he is now holding is one of the most responsible in the schools of Georgia and he is looked upon as a man of marked ability. DIXON GIVES "T. R." 287. ( New Yn'k Sun.) Senator Dixon, at the national Pro gressive headquarters, gives out yester day an election prediction. His sum mary gives Roosevelt 287 electoral votes 266 being a majority. Of the popular vote he gives Roosevelt a total of 6,177, 000; Wilson, 5,648,900; Taft, 2,560,000; and Debs, 851,000. He says that his predictions before the spring primaries fell short in each of the primary States. This year he figures that the total vote will be about 15,300,000. MR. HARVEY TOUCHED FOR FORTY DOLLARS. Mr. Thomas Harvey, of Kinston, who was one of the judges in the racing contests at the Fair, was one of the gentlemen who were robbed Thursday afternoon by a pickpocket. Mr. Harv ey had his wallet, which contained about forty dollars in cash and several checks and receipts, in one of his trousers pockets and in what he thought was a safe place. He said that he mingled with the crowds but little and felt no fear of being relieved of his cash. However, after leaving the grounds and preparing to get out his money to pay his fare to the city he found that in had been stolen. TO TAX INCOMES. Three Fourths of the States Will Soon Have Ratified Plan. Washington, Nov. 1. By January 1 three-fouthrs of the States of the Union will have ratified the const!' tutional amendment granting Con gress power to pass an income tax law, according to information obtained at the State Department. Notice of approval by 34 of the 48 States has already been received, and unofficial information received that two more Ohio and Louisiana have recently ratified the plan. This brings the total up to 36, the three-fourths majority. The income tax amendment grants Congress power to levy a tax on in comes "without apportionment among the several States and without a cen sus or numeration." . It will enable the legislateive branch of the Govern ment to frame an income tax law which will be safe from attack on the ground of unconstitutionality and will remove from the field of politics a stubborn issue which ' has furnished ammunition for debate in several Presidential campaigns. The income tax amendment, when adopted, will ' be known as Article XVI and will .become a part of the Constitution by proclamation of the Secretary of the State. Notice has been received at the State Department that Connecticut, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Utah have acted adversly on the amendment. Ten States have not yet. considered it, but the Legis latures in more than half of these will meet in January and probably take action. Only two more are needed make the necessary 36, but Secretary of the State Knox will not issue the proclamation until one or two more than the required number have acted. WILSON LEADS. Cambridge, Mass, Nov. I. A straw balot vote taken among Harvard student 'gave Wilson 735, Roosevelt (an alum- nus) 475 and Taft 365. In a straw held last college year Taft led. an ARMSCHDQL THREE T HOUSAflD HAVE REGISTERED Largest Registration Known In County of Craven For Many Year. VOTE WILL BE SOME SMALLER Registered Vote Not Large When Compared With Population ? - of County. Mr. R. A. Nunn, of the Democratic County , Executive Committee, has been making some comparisons of the registration this year with that of pre vious years and finds that there has been this year a substantial increase in the registration of voters. He learned the following facts from hi: investigation: "The registration of voters in Craven county this year is larger than it has been for many years. In 1900 Aycock received 2611 votes in this county and his opponent Adams received 932 Two years later in 1912, after the amend ment had been adopted, the Democratic vote fell down to 1402 while the Repub lican party escaped total annihilation by 92 votes; then in 1904 Gov. Glenn received 1614 votes and the Republicans showed a gain, Harris receiving 206 votes in Craven. "In 1906 the Democratic vote again fell off as well as the -Republican, the fiesrt being 1226 and the latter 134. Four years ago the Democratic vote in Craven was 1520 and the Republican vote was 340. In 1910 the Democratic vote wa9 1373, the Republican vote 240. "The registration books so far re ported show that about 3,000 men have registered and are eligible to vote in the election next Tuesday. Of the twenty election precincts in the county Gum Row is the smallest in the num ber of votes, it having 15 good Demo cratic voters, while the second ward, in the city is the largest with its 627 voters most of whom are Democrats. The regisrtation books show 1443 voters registered in the city." "The actual vote in the election will not be so large as the registration. Nowadays the vote never exceeds the registration. In the old days the election returns seemed to show that the majority of voters did not take the trouble to register beforehand. "The registered vote in the -county is not great when compared with the population which was 25,6594 accord ing to the census of 1910. Col W. D. Mclver said the other day that there were twice asmany men in the Simmons' torch-light procession last Thursday night as there were voters in any of the recent electrons in the county, showing a large number of friends from adjoin ing counties." USE THE GROUNDS FOR BALL GAMES Talk of Baseball League New Bern as One of The Members. With DISMANTLING THE BUILDINGS Big Task ol Removing the Ex hlbita Began Bright and Early Yesterday. Althougn the Eastern Carolina Fair had come to a close on the preceding day, the scene at the grounds yesterday was one of activity. The huge task of taking the exhibits from the various buildings began bright and early and continued throughout the day. In ad dition ti this the decorators were busily engaged in removing the thousands of yards of flags, bunting and banners that added so much to the attractiveness of the buildings and grounds and general clean tip of the buildings was made. ! ', With such a magnificent grandstand and race track and athletic field at the disposal of the public, it is not probable that the grounds will remain unused until the next Tair is thrown open. It is probable that New Bern will be on a baseball circuit next year, in fact the project is now being agitated, and it if materiafuces there is no doubt but that the grandstand and grounds will be used for this purpose. In the meantime there will doubtless be other events and New Bern citizens will have opportunity of visiting the grounds at intervals during the next few months. SHOT AT HIS CLUB. W. W. Harklm of AshevllU Fatally Wounded by Brakeman. Asheville, Nov, 3. William W.
