MM There are two professions, the de yoU f which have their hands fwS at atf times. These two are M vi and preaching. The man who lakes a real ta in hie work doe not even have time to take a long breath while the pastor 1mm but little more. Such beta the earn, people should take a little compassion on the man who is trying to hammer into their sin ful hearts God's message and not roast ttn for every little failure We heard a lady say recently that her pastor did not do enough visit - tag. Think of that will you. There's a pastor who preaches two sermons on Sunday, attends to prayer meeting visits the sick, conducts funerals and does a thousand a ud one other things aad yet he' expected to. visit two or three hundred of his members every week, sit in their parlors and talk about a lot of fol de rol that does n't amount to a continental rip. it simply oan't be done. If a man n ft good preacher he is bound to have time to get up his sermons and he must have time for other duties aad it Is a physical impossibility let a man to attend to so many so era! duties and do his work also. If your pastor does not get around to see you often enough, don't think bard of him, just remember that he, Die you, is nothing more than a human being and that he can do no more than you. Rtohmaad.

The motor flffmu engine hi the real thing for fighting fires and when New Bern grows A little larger we shall advo eate the purchase of another machine f this type.

The United States Government, i realizing that this la one Of the great-' est eatUe growing sections in th South, is anxious to get Craven weronty into the stock law territory and is doing all within its power to bring this about. Next month the Board of Commissioners will be Asked to call km election for the section South of the Neuse river and there is every reason to believe that they will do this. Persons familiar with conditions predict that if the elec- ris held that it wiU carry and, such the ease, the government has made arrangements to send an rt here to assist in the work Of eradicating the cattle tick and When such is accomplished, it will mean an increased income of thous ands ef dollars every year for the growers here. tmms J, ' efis CHICAGO CELEBRATES PER1TY DAY."

Raleigh, April 26. Governor Craig today received a message from Gov ernor Slaton, of Georgia, temporarily withdrawing the requisition papers against E. F. Bane, who was wanted In Georgia for two offenses, but whose extradition was held ud pending a hearing before the governor. That hearing was to have been held this morning, but was postponed and the conduct of the Governor of Georgia will very largely determine whether anything will be done. It is probable that the whole thing will be dropped. No Mandamus Today The mandamus proceeding which was to have tested the anti-jug act of the late general assembly, was post poned from today until Friday when Judge Frank Daniels will pass upon Its constitutionality. This case grew out of ex-Policeman George Glenns' demand upon the Southern Express Company for the delivery of a quart of whiskey when Mr. Glenn had received a quart early in the mouth. The express company de clined to deliver the stuff according to Mr. Glenn's wishes. Before the Justice of the Peace the action of Mr. Glenn was dismissed and was appealed. This Is the first action taken against the measure which had some thing of rough sledding in the legislature but finally went through Makes Appointments Governor Craig today appointed Rev. M. A. Barber, Rev. Dr. T. W 0Kelley, Rev. Dr. W. McWhite Mrs. William J. A. Grews, and Mrs Charles E.

Who murdered pretty, lb-year-old Susan ( oleman, and what was the motive for the crime? These are the questions which the Allen county grand jury which convened today will attempt to solve. Confined in a cell within a stone's throw of the grand jury room is Dorrance Riddle, aged 25, son of James E. Riddle, for years a weal thy contractor in Lima. Riddle was the sweetheart of the murdered girl. When taken info custody on sus picion of being the slayer of Miss Cole man, the police say that he made a complete confession of the crime. Later this confession was repudiated by the young man and today he de clares to all visitors that he had noth ing to do with the killing. Riddle is a machinist and formerly a corporal in the United States army. The murdered girl was a factory worker. Her body was found on the afternoon of April 15 concealed in an old boiler in the Lima railroad yards. Her skull had been crushed. An examination of the body, it is said, revealed the fact that the girl was about to become a mother. Mrs. Jennie M. Riddle, stepmother of the young man accused of the murder, told the police that on the day the body was discovered her step son had asked her before leaving for the railroad shops, where he was employed, to clean his clothes, which he had worn the night before. Upon receiving this information the police searched young Riddle's room, where they found the girl's pocketbook under the dressing table and several gar mets stained with blood. It was upon being confronted with this evidence that young Riddle is said to have confessed. According to the alleged confession Riddle had strangled and beaten the girl to death after she had accused him of having wronged her. Calvin Coleman, father of the mur dered girl, declares that he is not convinced that young Riddle was his daughter's slayer. He intimates that others were concerned in the crime. He declares that a plot was formed weeks ago to kill his daughter and that he has sufficient evidence to prove his statements. HUNDREDS HEAR LOCAL PREACHER Rev. R. W. Thiot, pastor of the Tabernacle Baptist church of this city, is in Raleihg conducting a great revival meeting and the newspapers there are giving gratifying accounts of his work. The following taken from the News and Observer on Mon day, will be of interest locally: "Preaching to the largest congrega tion that has gathered in Pullen Memorial Baptist church in a num ber of years, Rev. R. W. Thiot, of New Bein. last night discussed the subject The Devil.' He read a part of the first and second chapters of Job and took his test from First Peter, 5, 8, Be sober, be watchful, your adver- sary, tnc aevil, ne waiKem aooiu iikb a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour." 'The devil was much ooncerned ' about Eve," said the speaker, 'and he -was concerned about Jesus' earthly and temporal welfare. Ho is also ' much concerned about uj. i " 'By exercising the power God gave to the enemy of our sould,' .aid M r. Thiot we can -co a reason for the permission of evil in the earth for the permission of th reign of sin and death which for six thousand years has apparently disgraced the Creator, degraded humanity, astonished the angels and constituted our race a groaning creation. He devours our inheritance and robs us of our homes, our aspirations, our inolunations and nteations to seek Jesus Christ. "Mr. Thiot closed by picturing for his hearers a refuge. 'God is oar ref uge and our strength.' he said. 'The evangelist read as his scrip ture lesson for the eleven o'clock serv ice the 6th chapter of Matthew and took as his text James 4:3, 'Ye ask and receive not because ye ask amiss.' He used as his subject 'Prayer.' "Mr. Thiot gave a clear rendering of Jesus' teachings of prayer. 'God will answer prayer.' said the speaker, and if he does not answer our pray ers, there is always a reason, to get the proper view of ourselves seems to be the most necessary thing to any reformative movement, Mr. Thiot ex plained. "The regular services will continue through the weak. Rev. Mr. Thiot will preach everyday at 4 p. m. and 7:45 p. m." son as mayor of Uluoago was fea tured by a "Prosperity day" cele bration, whieh was the biggest thing of its kind that the western metro polis has seen since the great "Sound Money" demonstration of two de cades ago. Business houses and large industrial plants as wall as many public spirited etiisens co-operated uj making the demonstration a gener al jollifteation aimed to boost Chica go. A mammoth industrial parade was the big feature of the day. The affair was entirely non-partisan, f CONSIDER ESTABLISHING I M VERSIT Y HERE Washington, April 26.

THE INVESTIGATING (MAT WORK Carter-Abernethy Affair Is N earing Its Ending .Raleigh,' April 26 The Carter Abernethy investigating committee began its work this afternoon behind closed doors and if it gets all the material ready for the reading It hopes to finish by the middle of the week. The committee has about 1200 pages of typewritten stuff to read before it completes its duties. The machine which was to make the co pies of this investigation broke down. and before all copies were ready the committee had returned It is not believed that more than three days will be necessary to com plete the reading and making the re port. Much of the testimony is a repition and much gathers about the obarges of immorality whieh have been abandoned. The sole issue is the fitness of Judge Carter to alt as a judge, the character of Solici tor Abernethy as an official pot having been seriously questioned.

Their plans went well up until Saturday then the New Bern girl, who incidentally is in love with one of the local swains, decided that it would break his heart if she left, so she cancelued the engagement and put aside her aspirations to go on the stage. However, the young woman from Pamlico county had made up her mind to join the company and this she did, but "there's many a slip twixt the enp and the lip" and the young woman did not get an oppor tunity to leave town. Her father heard of the affair and at once decided to put a stop to any such move on the part of his daugh ter. He came very near being too late but arrived on the scene about fifteen minutes before the oompany left town and took his daughter in charge and carried her back to Pam lico where she will doubtless, remain: VIRGINIA DOPER INLAWS TOILS stock through nitons unknown of quantity of cocaine.
