Durham had sleet and snow on

Truly this is a great section.
Mayor Bangert has issued an order
to the police department calling for
t ha-immediate riddance of all the
beggars in the city and the arrest
of all who eorae here in the future.
This is the ultimatum and we com
mend the Mayor for his action. There
is no doubt but that there are cases
of need, many of thera, right here in
the oity but there are societies or
ganized and conducted for the pur
pose of looking after the needy and
all oases where reported will be in
vestigated and help rendered if need
ad.' We again commend Mayor
Bangert for his decision and hope
that his order will be put into effect
at once and that it will continue
to be enforced.

of the smiles that the farmers are
wearing down in that section. We
are glad that the Pamlico farmers
"lit er rag" and did the potato crop
up good and brown. Potatoes, like
th- poor, we have with usi always
aad there's always a demand for
them. If the farmers of Craven
and other counties would follow the
example of those down in Pamlico
and grow more food products, po
tatoes or anything else of an eatable
nature, they would not be compelled
to talk about the low price of cotton,

While Mrs. II. J. Staub and Mrs.

leisurely into the room and sat down
in a chair by the tire without making
a remark'. -Naturally mis irignienea

Policeman Griffin and several other
officers were soon on the scene, and
made a diligent search for the in
truder but were unable to locate his
whereabouts. All the information
that they could get was that he went
off in the direction of Five Points.
It is thought by Mrs. Bell and the
officers that the man was mentally
unbalanced, but should this be the
case it rtoes not. aner me iaci mai,
such an occurance is very risky
for the intruder. All of the police
men have been notified to be on the

and in ease they run across any one
bearing the man's description, to
make sure that he is absolutely sane
before allowing him to remain at

CRAVEN FARMERS
SEIXING COTTON
Getting Rid of the Fleecy

Yesterday more than one hundred
bales were seen on the exchange
at one time and this caused considj
erable comment, one gentleman re
marked that the scene reminded him
very much of similar ones down on
the docks at New Orleans. The
farmers are of tlio opinion that th
price now being received for cotton
is about as high as it will go this
season and those who are reticent
about disposing of their holdings are
men who do not have to sell and who
had rather take a chance on holding
their cotton and getting a higher
price next season. Almost every
farmer in the county has decided
to plant at least fifty per cent less
sotton during the approaching sea
son than they did last year, and it
is the general opinion that if this
is done, the price next season will be
several cent a pound higher than at
present.- 1 , y'v-'- ' ' -''-,

POTATO GROi'iHlS
Pamlico County Leads the
State In Production
of Same
Pamlico county it probably the
champion sweet potato growing eo a-
ty ia the Bute end the farmer of
that sectioa hare during the peat
four months received thousand of
dollars from the sale of the tubers.
A glance over the shipping record
at tha loeal. office of the Norfolk
Southern Railway Company, the only
railway company operating in that
county, show that since October
1st, practically four hundred oar
loads of potatoes have been shipped
through this oity from different point
in th county. In addition to the
shipment made by. rail, hundreds
of boat loads have been brought to
this city and also transported to
other point in thin section. Placing
a price of on dollar a harel onr th
potatoes it is estimated that the total
price already received for the crop
is a hundred thousand' dollars. This in
a measure accounts, for the fact that
down in Pamlico "hard times are
unknown and the farmers are not
wailing over the low price of cotton.

YACHT MINDORA
IS AJOTAL LOSS
Went Ashore Last Friday
On the Frying Pan
Shoals
Wilmington, Jan. 25 The fishing
yacht Mindora, which went ashore
on Frying Pan Shoals Friday while
en route to Mobile from Norfolk, is
reported a total loss. Her crew were
rescued by life savers soon after the
vessel grounded. The local tugs
Castor and Blanche went to her
yesterday and saved everything possi
ble from the wreck before the vessel
went, to pieces. The captains of the
tugs report the vessel a total loss.
The revenue cutter Seminole has re
turned to port and lies docked at her
berth at the government wharf.
While cruising during the past two
weeks much valuable service has been
rendered shipping by the cutter.
In connection with the grounding of
the Mindora, the following excerpts
from a Norfolk, Va., dispatch to the
Baltimore Sun, will be of interest:
"The Mindora was formerly the
steam yacht Norma, and was practi
cally rebuilt before 'she sailed from
this port several days ago for Campe
ohe Banks, Mexico. Her "captain said
he was taking a party to the Red
Snapper Fish Grounds in the Gulf
of Mexico.
The Mindora carries a crew of
eight men. Her skipper won notor
iety during the Cuban-Spanish war
by alleged filbustering expeditions.
The Mindora is reported to have" been
driven ashore in a gale last night.
Captain Moon and crew were rescued
by life savers this afternoon."
MAYOR BANGERT
AFTER BEGGARS
Gives the Police Some Very
Definite Instructions
Concerning Them
Mayor Bangert has put a ban on
professional begging in New Bern.
During the last several; month he
has refused quite a number of people
permission to stand or , sit. on me
streets and beg, and yesterday he in
structed the officers to move all they
saw on the streets. In ibis explan
ation as to hi reasons for hot allow
ing cripples from other places to beg
in New Bern, Mayor Bangert said,
I do not want to make.it hard for
any one wno is in neeo, : put mere
are so many of these ' professional
beggars going through 'the country
that you do, not know who are in
need." Mayor Bangert related an
inoident which occurred about a
year ago when a nlceIy-;dresBed wo
man came to New Bern and got per
mission to solieil for an orphanage.
Later it was learned that this Woman
went from one town to- another beg
ging for this supposed 'institution,
but in reality she was using the
money for ber own private use, and
it was also' learned that she had pur
chased a farm for whioh she paid
seventeen thousand dollar. Thia is
the class the May of; Is after and not

COUNTY TO MEET
Will Gather At Trenton On
February 1st to Discuss
Important Matters
The Farmers Union of Jones county
has just sent out a notice stating
that they have a number of plans of
interest to the farmers of that sec
tion and that a big meeting at which
all members of the union are re
quested to attend, will be held at
Trenton on Monday, February 1st.
One of the matters to be discussed
at this meeting will be a plan to de
crease the cotton acreage during
the coming season. There is probably
no county in Eastern North Caro
line where more cotton is grown
than in Jones county and the yield
of the fleecy staple during the past
season was very large. This crop is
to be out next season and the Farm
ers Union has plans for the farmers in
regard to this, which will prove of
benefit to them. A number of other
matters are to be discussed and
acted upon and it is hoped that the
attendance will be large.

TRAFFIC IS HEAVY
Especially Are Great Quan
tities of Freight Being
Handled , By Them
As evidence of the fact that "hard
times" have vanished from this sec
tion (that is, if they were ever in
evidence) is the excellent amount
of business which the Norfolk South
ern Kaiiway tjompany is aoing in
its. freight department., Just for cu
riosity's sake a newspaper man yes
terday" secured access to some of the
records of the company for the past
two weeks and was amazed to find
that the amount of business done by
the department during the period
above mentioned surpassed that of
the similar period duringl914 by many
carloads.
Possibly the fertilizer people are
the ' heaviest shippers now. The
Virginia-Carolina Chemical Com
pany with a plant at James pity,
the Craven Chemical Company and
the E.' H. Meadows Company with
a plant at Graysville, just below New
Bern and on the opposite side of the
river, are sending, out several J car
loads of their , product each day
and have orders enough to koep this
up for weeks.. . . : .. " , , ' :
The lumber men are also sending
out a great quantity of freight how
to all parts of the country., A well
known, dealer is responsible-for the
statement that, while the price being
received for lumber ha been bettor
in the past, that they ere getting
a fair, remuneration for, it and that
they wer filling . numerous; orders
and in addition to .the lumber being
sent out by rail, large' shipments are
being made by tha water route. ."
In .connection with th lumbering
industry it i of interest to note that
th John L. Roper Lumber Company
are planning to resume operations at
Cox Siding, near th city, and give
emnlovment to" a lare number of
men. This company is also operating
it local plant on full time. :.'
