FiidayAtiS Poilock Street By "Beer, H appears, talked too muck Hdlin7 At we-undertfandMt bL tIkS "to0 uuoh c feM lowet enough of it in his system ' That New Bern is fast gaining -owa m a winter resort wall as a ' tunjmer retort, is 'evidenced by th large 'number of northern visitors who r spending the chilly months here. Aeeording to our way" of think iag) Florida's resorts "and also those of the Pacific coast are net near as preferable as pan be found right along he North Carolina coast. Taking advantage! of the immense amount of advertising the case has received, the moving picture people have dramatized the Krauk case and soon we will be sitting back in the theatres watching the whole tradegy flit across the screen. There's no doubt but that we will all be there to see the show, regardless of the faet that we have cussed and discussed all of its horrible details time and again and spoke of its damaging influence to the morals of the country. We notice that Editor V. (). Saunders of the Elizabeth City In dependent, is planning to give the town of Plymouth a newspaper. We predict that with the first issue the temperature of that section will rise several degrees and will later touch fever heat and remain there. A noted English war expert has been quoted as saying that in less than three months Tommy Atkins will be singing '"'Tipperary" in the streets of Berlin. It, appears to us that if the Kaiser's forces continue te make progress in the next two months as they have in the past, that it will be a case of the Tuetonic forces parading around the lanes of London to the strains of "IVr Wacht Am Rhine." The newspapers of the State have had considerable to say of late in regard to the destruction of the mon ument to the memory of Prof. Elisha Mitchell which has for years topped the mountain of that name aud which was recently dynamited . The fol lowing from the Charlotte Obser ver in regard to the consevation of the mountain is of interest: '"If the State of North Caiolina does not spon put in evidence some due ap preciation of the value of the peak of Mount Mitchell, how would it do to ask the government to take care of it? A bill has passed the House of Congress making a National Park of 230,000 acres around Long's Peak, in Colorado, the first acquisition of a Na tional reservation since a million acres ef Glazier Park laud was set aside in 1910. The government recently took ver Biltmore forest and the preser vation of that estato is assured for all time. The United States could make of Mount Mitchell the finest mountain park east of the Rockies and it would do the work right. The Asheville watershed, which is alony ne side of the mountain, preserves a section of Mount Milchfll, but the mountain otherwise is at the mercy of the lumberman and The Observer f opinion that it would be a fine thing to get the Federal Government interested. It is none too soon for the State to be taking the fate of Mount Mitchell under serious consideration." Col. S. II. Ix-ard General Pass enger Agent of the Norfolk South rn Railway Company, is a booster f the first water and we are only sorry that there are not more men of his calibre. "Business conditions in all lines in Eastern North Carolina are good" he said yesterday and we know that these are hit honest convictions. Another thing that CoL Leard is doing that it proving of real worth to this teotioR It the grea interest he is taking in the development of the whole f - the, tidewater section of North Carolina ana his efforts are bearing fruit. - ' A traveling man who it accustomed ' to plying New Bern a . visit over- to-ofter was heard ti remark few dayt ago while standing in the lobby of ' n of the local hotels, that this" is mighty ."'dry 7 "town.

ARE INVESTIGATING POISONING CASE New York Grand Jury Look ing Into Death of Rog ers Children New York, Jan. 21 With the in quest date still not set and the Grand Jurors not in session, little progress today marked District Attorney Mar tin's investigation of the strange love tangle in which Mrs. Ida Sniffen Walters "Rogers" is the centra! figure. Abraham Levy, her counsel, was again before Mr. Martin, plead ing that his client be not forced to appear at the inquest. "It is inhuman," the lawyer pro tested. "Mrs. Walters will only be made an object of curiousity. She has suffered enough sorrow already, and added publicity surely is unnecessar ily cruel. Her appearance can serve no legal purpose that cannot as well be served in another manner." What answer the District Attorney made could not be learned, but it is reported he remained steadfast in his determination to have Mrs. Walters testify when official investigation of the deaths of her two babjea it made. She wat reported as improving stead ily in the Lebannon hospital to day. Lorlyt E. Rogers spent the night in the building, t Rogers caused astonishment and aught er in the day by donning a "disguise," consisting of a heavy green ulster and automobile goggles A newspaper photographer tried to obtain a picture of him in this strange attire, but Rogers fled down West chester Avenue and eluded hit pur suer by a frantio leap to a trolley car. tWhen the Orand Jury convenet Dr. William G. Hague will be called again. Hit assistant, Dr. Henry Woods, and two Lebannon hospital norset alto will be tummoned. A re port permit! that Mn. Caroline Gid dlngt Rogert will be called back to the eity to be questioned. . . Atlanta, Jan. 21. The Frank ease shortly it to be teen in the raoviet. A report from New York says that Qeorg K.

Kennedy and Jerome are eoeftdtaW tha' the Federal Court in New Hamp shire mill turr Thaw ovr to them without requiring the signature of Judge Edgar Aldrich of ihe United States District Court to the papers. If the Court will not take such action, Jerome is prepared to go to Masaa chustts for Judge Aldrich's signa ture. It is expected that nothing will occur io prevent Thaw's arrival in Ntw York by Saturday next, at the latest. Will Brini Him Here On. Tram Jerome ridiculed the idevthat any automobile will be necessary to bring Thaw back to this Mate. He ap peared not to have the slighest worry over possible habeas corpus pro ceedings. "There will be no mystery and no heroics in the matter," Jerome said. "Thaw will be brought here in a train, an ordinary, every-day train, and lodged in the Tombs just as soon as lie arrives. It is expected that Sheriff Horn heck of Dutchess County and two of his deputies will have actual charge of Thaw, when the return journey from New Hampshire is begun. A despatch from Concord to-day stated that Thaw's lawyer's in the Ntw Hampshire city, Maurice Smurt leff and George F. Morris, will make no attempt to delay the transfer of their client to the New York authori ties after the necessary papers are produced. The attorneys said Thaw's chances of making a successful fight for freedom are better in New York State than in New Hampshire. Jud Must Withdraw Writ- The Concord dispatch also pointed out the necessity for Judge Aldrich to withdraw the writ of habeas corpus, which he granted earlier, and which stayed the extradition of Thaw on the order of the Governor of New Hampshire. The transfer of Thaw from Federal to New York State of ficials will follow, and the extradition order then will be restored automa tically. It is reported that Judge Aldrich, who is holding court in Bos ton, is prepared to go to Concord whenever his presence there in the Thaw case is wanted. A despatch from Denver, Col. last night quotes (). H. Hilton, Western counsel for Thaw, as saying that Richard J. Butler, former Tam many Assemblyman, who was in dieted for aiding Stanford WhiU's slayer to escape from Matteawan, is preparing to turn Statt'i evidence. Builer and four others are impli caied with Thaw in the conspiracy prosecution pending in this State. BELHAVEN BRIEFS Belhaven, N. C, Jan. 21 Mn. M. H.
