in Stanley Hall where the firemen
were tendered a reception by the citi- j
zens of the city as a slight token
of their appreciation of their efforts

The hall had been appropriately dec

and suspended over the two long tables
u:l i i u i 1 : . u . i
the hall and which held the food
was a banner bearing the word "Wel
come."
The feast consisted of sandwiches,
fruits of all varieties, soda water, and
in fact almost everything f ood to eat
that can be imagined. After the firemen
and a number of citizens had assem
bled in the hall Mayor Albert H.
Bangert in behalf of the city tendered
the firemen an invitation to "take the
house" and also congratulated them
in the highest terms of the excellent
records marie during the p.-t v eek.
Chief of the Fire Department Thomas
Davis responded to Mayor Bangert's
address with a few well chosen words
and after J. Leon Williams had made a
few remarks the guests turned their
attention to more material things.
There was enough of the good things
lor each and every person and the re
ception was thoroughly enjoyed. Punrh
made (rm Villain Jennii es L'nau's
favorite beverage), grape juice, was
served and the table on which the large
punch bowls was placed was one of the
most popular spots in the hall. A col
ored band had been secured to furnish
music for the occasion and all during the
evening they succeeded in keeping
the meerry makers under the spell of
their melodies.
E. B. Hackburn more familiarly
known to the fire laddies as "Boss"
was one of the leaders in the movement
to give the returning firemen a recep
tion and after the close of the banquet
the horses used in making the winning
runs were brought out and a parade
which was headed by the band moved
around in front of the "Boss' " store
on Pollock street where he was given
three lusty cheers. In response the
"Boss" woke the welkin with three
cheers for the fire companies. .
A resolution was passed by the fire
men extending their thanks to E. B.
Hackburn, Cwcn Dunn and to all who
helped to make the reception a success.
.-' The' tournament is a thing of the past
last night's reception is today only a
pleasant memory but the victories
won by the New Bern firemen will
always be remembered and the people
of this city will always be proud of her
fire companies and of the "boys" who
compose it.

Mr. and Mrs. Topperwein the cele
brated marksmen will give an exhi
bition of expert and fancy shooting
here next Saturday. It will be a reve
lation to all of the wonderful possi
bilities of modern arms and ammuni
tion in the hands of the greatest
experts. Mr. Topperwein is the ac
knowledged dean of fancy and trick
shots and his many feats are of a
highly sensational character. Mrs.
Yopperwein has no equal among women
for adeptness in shooting. Ladies are
especially urged to go and witness
her astonishing skill with shotgun,
rifle and pistol. Admission will be free
to all.
Some idea of the unusual character
of the exhibition given by the Topper
weins will be gained from the following
remarks: Adolph Topperwein the great
est living fancy and flying target shot
with a rifle represents the Winchester
Repeating Arms Co. and lives in San
Antonio Texas. His native State
has long been noted for its expert
shooters and this penchant for shooting
among Texans added to his natural
ability undoubtedly accounts for the
woderful skill he displays. He uses no
special equipment but ordinary Win
chester rifles shooting regular cart
ridges with solid ball; or in other words
cartridges such as are Bold by all deal
ers. He shoots at oranges apples
bits of coal or brick: walnuts small
marl les empty cartridges shells ant!
many other tiny objects which arc all
thrown into the air and hit with either
rifle or revolver.
In the most remarkable exhibition
of rifle shooting ever given Mr. Topper
wein shot for ten days at 72 500
2 1-4 inch wooden blocks thrown into
the air by an assistnat missing only
nine out of the entire lot and orly
4 i ut ti tliC frit 50 0(0. Ouring l;u
shooting he made straight runs of
14 540, 13,599, 13,292, 13,219 and
10,383. The shooting outfit he used was
two Winchester automatic rifles and
Winchester cartridges, and the loading
of the rifles was done by himself. Con
sidering the almost incredible score
and the tremendous strain of such
incessant shooting, it is unlikely that
this record will ever be beaten.
Other remarkable feats by Mr
Topperwein with the rifle were his
scoring of 85 out of 100 2 1-2 inch tar
gets thrown into the air while riding
t full speed in an automobile; and the
breaking of 3,507 targets without a
miss at the World's Fair in St. Louis,
Mr. Topperwien is the originator
of many marvellous fancy and trick
shots and also of the feat of drawing
the outlines of Indian chiefs and other
pictures with bullets shot from a rifle
Rifle shooting is not his only acquire
ment, as he does wonder ul work also
with revolver, pistol and shotgun.
Mrs. Topperwein, who shoots to
demonstrate the superior quality of
the American Podwer Mills "Dead
Shot" smokeless powder, is undoubted
ly the premier lady shot of the world.
Although she took up shooting only a
few years ago, she has startled the
shooting world and entertained man
thousands of people by her great skil
with rifle, shotgun and pistol. Shooting
comes natural to her, as without seen -
ing difficulty she masters various kirn's
of shotoing quickly.
Mr. and Mrs, Topperwein will give
an exhibition of their wonderful skill
ii this city next Saturday afternoon.

R. E. SNOWDEN DISPATCHED
REPTILE WITH A HEAVY
FENCE RAIL.
While returning to the city yesterday
afternoon after having been on a trip
of inspection over some of the county
roads, R. E. Snowden, Road Super
viser of Craven County, was met
by a highly excited colored woman about
three miles away from the city and asked
to kill a large rattlesnake which was
coiled in front of her home a short
distance away.
The woman told Mr. Snowden
that the snake was about fifteen feet
long, her fear doubtless magnifying her
vision, and naturally he was not en
thusiastic about attacking such a
reptile. However, he decided to
take a look at his snakeship and upon
so doing found that it was only about
four feet in length.
Securing a fence rail he dispatched
the reptile with a few quick blows.
Upon txamination it was found that
the rattler was adorned with nine
rattles and a button and was in reality
a good- ized specimen of thi3 species
of snake.

Washington, Aug. 16. The true
significance of the President's demand
upon the Senate majority for action
on the Currency Bill at this session
came to light when Democratic leaders
told of a deliberate plot on the part
of standpat Republicans to encourgae
a panic in this country and to profit
politically by this state of affairs.
That such a scheme had been plan
ned; that word of it had reached the
President, and that it resulted in the
firm resistance of the White House
to the recess idea is the conviction
of leading Democratic Senators. In
fact, they discussed the whole matter
among themselves in the cloak rooms,
The action of the Senate caucus.
therefore, in the opinion of many
Uemocrats, not only completed a trium
phant party organization, entirely res
ponsive to the President, but check
mated a carefully conceived campaign on
the part of reactionary Republicans
to punish the people of the country
for electing a Democratic President
and Congress last fall.
As explained by a Senator who is
known to be close to the administration
the caucus action forestalled any effort
on the part of the opposition to cur
rency legislation to postpone consider
ation of the Administration bill, and the
possibility of a panic was thus removed.
Here is the view of this Senator, as
expressed to a correspondent:
'It happens that owing to the Balkan
War money is tighter in England, Ger
many and France and commands a
higher rate of interest than ever before.
Those who are interested in seeing the
country pay for a Democratic tariff
bill think they see another panic coming
from over the water as they did in
1893, when tight money abroad was
the first indication of what was coming
to us. These non-patriotic men, who
place party advantage above national
welfare, are anxious gto have the
Democratic Tariff bill enacted speedily
provided an emergency currency measure
does not accompany it. They reason
that just after the tariff revision
becomes law the ti0ht money condition
abroad will reach our shores. We will
have no currency revision to help us.
The power will still be in the hands
of a few financiers in N w York to
cripple the country. The people will
be helpless. Tariff revision will have
just gone on the statute books.
"Meanwhile, Congress would have
bcci in recess ard tl;erc unscrupulous
meij .nJ ihci:- friends i ; the aunty
market would do their best to biing
on a depression. By the time we got
back and passed the Currency Bill,
they believed, their work would have
bjeen done and the country, discontented
would rout the Democratic party
and call back the republicans to their
ancient spoils.
"For justification of this charge
which may yet be made on the Senate
floor, if the Republicans continue to
cry 'panic' and abuse the President
for frying to prevent a fruitless Mexican
war look at the remarks of Senators
Penrose and Gallingcr and Lippitt.
They have predicted hard times. They
have filled the Record With fake state
ments about great factories leaving
the country because of the tariff. In
each instance we have refuted this
by producing letters of denial from the
heads of the factories, and lately,
in response to broadcast statements
of depression, we put Dun and Brad
street's reports in the Record, prov
ing the contrary.
"I think these men, who place their
party triumph above national welfare
miscalculated all the way through
I think even had their designs succeeded
they could not have produced a depres
sion with President Wilson in his office
ready to use his. gibbet of public
execration on the interests that would
manufacture a panic."

For half a century, Cardui has been re
