LAST OPPORTUNITY
Housewives Should Get Beans
Tomorrow
Announcement was made early this
afternoon by Mr. J. P. Herring, county
farm demonstrator, to the effect that
,the Central Market at the Castle
street tabernacle, will in all probabil
ity be flooded with beans tomorrow,
and the housewives- of the city are
urged to bear this in mind and make
a special effort to get quantities for
canning purposes. Mr. Herring states
that while it may not be convenient
for the ladies to do any canning to
morrow they should make sacrifices
for this once, as in all probability the
bean market will not amount to a
great deal in the future, as the farm
ers are preparing to plough them in
to make room for new crops.
This, Mr. Herring says, will prob
ably be the last opportunity the wom
en of the,-cityv: wilt: have to get beans
in quantities and they should take ad
vantage of the flush condition of the
market tomorrow. An additional can
of beans will mean that much of an
increase of the supply of foods conserved.

SCORE VICTORY
Court of Appeals Overrules
Receivership Action Taken
Recently In Mass. ,
Grand Secretary -Henry E. Bonit,z,
of the North Carolina Royal Arcanum,
received a telegram yesterday from
Supreme Regent C. Arch William, in
Chicago, informing him that, the Royal
Arcanum had Avon the famous "Ho
bart" case and that the Federal Couf't
of Appeals 'had. just decided that the
United States had no jurisdiction in
the receivership case, and that the
Court of Appeals, had directed the
j lower court to dismiss the proceed
ings which wrill end the matter.
Grand Secretary Bonitz, upon re
ceipt of the telegram bringing the
good news, immediately wired all of
the North Carolina lodges, which will
convey the tidings to the 3,600 mem
bers of the Arcanum in this State.
There are about 300 members of the
local lodge of the Royal Arcanum who
have received the news of the action
of the Court of Appeals with much
satisfaction. ,
It. will be remembered that' several
weeks ago Judge Aldrich, in Massa
chusetts, threw the organization into
the luvnds of receivers on a petition
of a member of the order, who held a
if 500 life insurance policy with the
Royal Arcanum. The action of the
judge was without any warning to the
officers of the organization and it
came as a thunderbolt out of a clear
sky.
It was stated byrand Secretary
Bonitz this morning that it has been
recently announced that the Supreme
Council of the Arcanum had decided
to pay all policies of members of the
Arcanum who will enlist or be drafted
into the service of the United States
in the present war.

Celebrate Bunker Hill Day.
Boston, Mass., June 18. Not in
many years has Boston and vicinity
witnessed such an outburst of patriot
ism as that which marked today's cele
bration of Bunker Hill Day. Although
the day was not a legal holiday, prac
tically all the business activities of the
city were suspended in observance of
the 142nd anniversary of the battle
that began the American war of inde
pendence. The patriotic celebration
centered, as usual, in Charlestown, the
scene of the famous fight. A big mili
tary and naval parade was the leading
feature of the program.
Major James Bourke, of the army
medical corps, shot and killed himself
at his home in Washington Saturday
night. He had been suffering from a
mental breakdown. He was born in
Iowa and was a graduate, of Rush
Medical' College and of the Army and
Navy Medical School.
Manager Bailey, of the Royai, de
clares that he has booked for, tbiSi
week the rip-roaringest, rollickingest,
funniest andSbest musical tabloid or
ganization that has ever visited the
city. It is a new one for Wilming
ton and Mr. Bailey is expecting great
things of it. Don Nichols headed the
aggregation, which is ..known as the
Nephews and Nieces, of Uncle Sam.
It is : widely advertised and? pro
nounced one of the best in the busi-
hess presenting tabloid attractions. - v
Comedy and music will reign su
preme at the Royal during this en
gagement. According to today's an
nouncement by the management, there
will be "-"miles of smiles without a
blush," and that ought to mean a
thoroughly good show and at the same
time a perfectly clean and wholesome
one. The corps of comedians carried
is excellent, according to- advance no
tices, and as for -beauty, the young
ladies with the company have been
taking prizes at beauty shows since
they were babies, which may or may
not be a good while. Unless appear
ances lie, however, or are misleading,
there will be optical attractions at
the Royal this week surpassing any
for many moons. All that is asked of
you is simply that you be on hand for
the opening bill today and judge for
yourself.
FIVE-PART MASTERPIECE AT
GRAND.
"One of Many," the five-part fea
ture screen drama, which, presented
by Arthur James, will be seen at the
Grand theatre tomorrow, with Frances
Nelson as star, is a great moral panto
mime. On the screen is flashed the
story of the struggle, the sorrows and
the regeneration of Shirley Bryson,
the little manicure girl whose love
for her mother blinds her eyes to her
duty to herself. "
"One of Many," which has been
written and directed by William
Christy Cabanne, lays bare the pit
falls that beset the path of young
girls who go out into the world to
grapple with modern conditions. Es
pecially it flays those who take the
attitude that a rich man can do no
wrong; that youth, beauty and inno
cence, are fit commodities to be sold
over a counter or across a manicure
table. It is unsparing in its denuncia
tion of those parents, who, secretly
walking in forbidden ways themselves,
display hypocritical anger at the short
comings of their children. One of
Many" preaches in plain terms the
doctrine that "they who sow mus't
also reap."
The National Board of Censorship,
after seeing "One 'of Many," pro
nounced it a profound moral lesson,
and its entertainment and moral
values were described ,as of unusual
strength.

Mr. and Mrs. J. -L. Clayton, of
Leakesville, returned to their home
this mornihg, after spending-several
days at Wrightsville Beach.
, While the crowds at the beach yes
terday were fairly large, the weather
was a little too cool for surf bathing
and, considering the immensity of the
crowd that went to the beach, the
number of bath suits was woefully
small.
The surf was unusually rough yes
terday and,, while the experienced
ones, got much pleasure from riding
waves, that was poor consolation for
the novice, who was slapped down by
the nntrrv breakers on numerous occa
sions. 'The under-tow, however, con
Isidering the roughness of the surf,
1 was not in -evidence to any great ex
tent.

No estimates of them or even approx
