(Adv.l EARLY SETTLER IEREJN VISIT LOUIS B MIDGETTE OF ORIEN TAL SEES MANY IMPROVE MENTS IN NEW BERN. Louis B. Midgctte (Uncle Lou) of Oriental, one of Pamlico county's oldest and most respected citizens is in the city for a short visit. Mr. Midgette probably knows the, topo graphy of his native county better fhan any other living man. He, located at Oriental where there was not more than half a dozen buildings in the town and erected a structure which he later turned into a hotel and Mid- gettes Hotel is known all over the State. Every body in that county knows Mr. Midgette and he greatly enjoys his popu'arity. This is Mr. Midgette's first visit to New Bern in more than a year and he found many improvements had been made during the interim. Immediately after arriving in the city he called on Colonel James A. Bryan a life long friend and next visited George H. Roberts cashier of the National Bank. After talking over old times M Midgette boarded the street cars and rode from ore end of the line to the other then back ;.gain cvir the entire system. He told a Journal reporter yesterday afternoon that he didn't get an opportunity of riding very often and that he wanted to get enough while he had the chance. While advanced in years Mr. Mid gette is almost as active as a man nf forty and thinks nothing of working :t any ti.sk which he li.i;.i'is to hi.-, e from early morning until sunset. He will return home this morning. BASIN WARD, COLORED, WILL HANDLE SHOVEL FOR THIRTY DAYS. Basin Ward, a notorious negro who has for years made his habitation in the north western part of the city and who has faced a long succession of Mayors, was before Mayor Bangert yesterday morning on a warrant charg ing him with being a vagrant. Ward bears the reputation of being able to char himself of a charge in the police court if there is any possible loophole and he made every at tempi to do this yesterday but the evidence was con clusive and a fine of twenty dollars and the costs of the case was imposed, hailing to secure the necessary coin of the realm to liquidate the fine and costs he was sentenced to the county roads for a term of thirty days. At the expiration of his term on the roads Ward will by no means be out of trouble. When arrested by Policeman A. L. Bryan two half-pints of whiskey were found in his pockets and later two witnesses informed the officer that Ward had attempted to sell them whis key. An attempt to sell intoxicating liquors is not a violation of the State laws, but it is a violation of the Federal laws unless the retailer has a govern ment license, and when Ward's term expires on the roads he will be takep in to custody by the government and will be given an opportunity to proVe to Commissioner C. B. Hill that he is not the man wfio was offering the whiskey for sale. Electric Bitters Made A New Man Of Him. "I waa lulTnring from pain In my rtomach, head and back." writes H. i .

ANOTHER VAGRANT WILL IRK ROARS PRESTER JOHN. Legends of an Elusive Warrior of the Twelfth Century. The famous if somewhat phantom personage Prester John, who for two or three centuries occupied so promi nent a place in the historic annals of Europe and in the minds of Europeans, was, from the most reliable accounts, t christian conqueror of enormous power and great splendor, who com bined the chnracter of priest and king nnd ruled over vast dominions in the orient In the middle ages. He had, it was related, established a powerful em pire either in Asia or Africa, and won derful stories were told of his victo ries, his riches and his power. His mode of warfare, which was unique nnd entirely effective, indicates an intimate acquaintance with ex plosives and combustibles. He pos sessed an army of life sized copper soldiers mounted on brazen horses, which were charged with explosive materials, projectiles and poisonous gas. This formidable array was mar shaled to the front and spat forth its deadly fumes and dangerous projec tiles with horrid effectiveness, making havoc In the ranks of tho enemy. The first mention of this extraordi nary man, who uppenrs and disappears from historic annals at long intervals, occurs In the Chronicles of Otto, Bish op of Frlesengen, woo narrates Pres ter John's conquest of the Persians at Egbatnna. in the extreme orient, in the your 1143.

In fact, resolutions have been introduced In the state legisla ture once or twice, but have died in committee. Tho purpose has been to Include all of the present state south of Westchester county In a new state to be called (in one Instance) the state of Manhattan. North of the Bronx district the name of New York was still to be retained. The surrounding Islands of the south all those of Long Island sound, Long Island complete and nil of the counties comprising New York city were to be embraced within the new state of Manhattan. The creation of a new state confers n tight that cannot later be abrogated and in this respect is unique in the establishment of political areas. After the people of the district in question have decided by vote that the carry ing out of a new state is desired, con gress passes upon the application. Up to this point congress Is supreme. Once, however, congress agrees to the new state creation and the new state becomes an established fact, then no power of the republic can undo what has been done by legislative act. No repeal can revoke the privileges of a law abiding sovereign state. New York Sun. Ball a Girls' Game. Of all the games ball seems to be peculiarly a girl's game throughout the ages.
