CHIEF RAIN-IN-THE-FACE GOT UNDESERVED FAME WITH the possible exception of Hitting Bnll and Curley, Custer's Crow scout, more misinformation haa been written about Rain-In The-Kace (Itlomagnju) chief of the Hunkpapas than any other Indian who ever lived. When he died September 12, 1000, the word was flashed all over the country thut "the Indian who killed General Custer Is dend." During the Stanley expedition up the Yellowstone In 1878, Rain-In The- Face murdered two civilians who had Strayed from Custer's command, a crime for which he was arrested by Oapt. Tom Ouster a year later and Imprisoned at Fort Abraham Lincoln, N. D. He escaped and after Joining the hosttles under Bitting Bull he is said to have sent word back to the fort that he would have his revenue on the whole Custer family and on Captain Tom In particular. Out of this threat grew the story that Rain In-The-Cac* after the battle of Little Big Horn had cut out Tom Custer's heart and eaten a piece of It. Mrs. Ouster In her book "Boots and Saddles" mukes such an assertion, but Italn-In-The-Face In telling bla life story to Dr. Charles A. Bast man, the noted Sioux writer, denied any such deed and It Is reasonable to believe that the Hunkpapa warrior would tell a member of Ills own race the truth. More than thnt, Dr. Porter and Gen eral Henteen, who found Tom Ous ter's body after the battla, have stated positively that he was not mutilated In this way. In Longfellow's poem 'The Revenge of Raln-In-The-Faee,*' he repeats the story, although ha mokes Gen. George Custer the victim of the atrocity In stead of Tom Custer. This may be tba origin of the yarn that Italn-ln-Th*- Fitce was the slayer of Custer. The circumstances connected with his killing the two civilians from Ous ter's commune] showed that he was a ruthless, savage warrior. His bold at tack on Fort Totten, N. D., In imO with two cmiTpanlons, an act of sheer bravado growing out of a dare, and his endurance of the worst tortures of the Sun Dance without s murmur proved that he was a man utterly In different to pain, danger or death. After the Sioux wars were over Raln-In-The-Face settled on the Stand ing Rock reservation and In 1888 ap plied for admission to the Hampton school, an effort which lhsplrsd • second poem (about Mitt—this tlnis from the pen of another great Ameri can poet, John G. Whlttler. On the reservation Kaln-ln-The-Fars became an Indian policeman. Why Do They Do It? What make* people All one thea ter night after night for 443 nights for one play and stay away from another theater with another play, as though it were a plague spot? One play it doubtless as widely advertised other and the casts of both are probably equal in ability. And yet the crowd goes to one and stays away from the other. Of course the answer is plain. One is good, the other is not. The play which is to be on the Chsutauqua program is one of the few good ones, the few which have had exceptionally long runs in New York and Chicago, this prov ing without a doubt that "they have the goods." "Turn to the Right." ran 443 ntfhtw tit New York.-and SWnfghta in Chicago. It is called "the com edy that will live forever." It has the heart interest of the ever-com pelling story of mother-love. It is clean. People who are familiar with the Chautauqua type of play agree that this is a fine example of the type. A special single admission price of SI.OO is announced for the at traction, but season ticket-holders will escape this extra tax. This looks like an opportunity for lovers of drama, especially comedy-drama. GOVERNMENT AUCTION SALF There will be soid at public auctio at Camp Bragg, N. C., on May 2' 1922, commencing at 10:30 A.

Price of the Williamston post office is cooperating in a nation-wife campaign of the gov ern aent to protect the American peo ple against fake and unwise invest ments and to bring hidden surplus funds into circulation. The Government is warning people against financial transactions with stragers and advising them to put their money in good securities, piss* their funds in banks, or invest hi Treasury Savings Certflcates at the Post Office. It a diffleut to conivct the swindlers who obtain money from un suspecting people in this manner until sjmo of the fbderal laws have been broken. Department officials say they are amazed that people wil pans by a bank or the post office which offer protec tion of funds and aofe investment to hand their money over to some smooth taking swindler about whom they know nothing. Postmasters have beon called upon by the Department to use their influence in every way possible t> prevent the loss of millions of dol lars each year trhough unscrupuous promoters and swindlers. Mr. Price says: "1 am sending let ters to the patrons of this office, even to those of limied means culsing their atcntion to on investment guaranteed bot.\ as to principal and inteie.ft by the United States Government ami wh'ch wil increase 26 per cent in five yea.s. Through this post office it is pojfiibte to purchase a s2i> Treasury Savings CertiAcote siiO, a SIOO certificate for SBO.OO and a SI,OOO cer tileato for SBOO.OO, representing an investment yielding, at purchase price 4 12 per cent interest, compounder semi-annually. If the purchaser wish es to cash his certificate before the end of five years, he can get his mon ey l »ock with interost figured at a bout 3 1-2 per cent, compounded semi annually. 1 am hoping the people of this community will take advantage of this ocer or put their money into a bank as a prortectiou against pos sible loss."

No participation by the mem bers of one party will be tolerated it selecting the candidates of the other. Two primaries are held in the stat on that day, the order of the board declares, a Democratic primary and a Republican primary. The voter is free to change his party affiliation but when he changes, he must stick t The voter cannot vote for a particulai candidate in a party of which he i.- not a member. Republican particpation in the pri mary will be nominal, except in th« 27th Senatorial and Tenth Cong re.' •ional districts. In only these two instances are there contests witliu the party. Elsewhere n the state, with thu exception of some county of lcea of which no record is made here, the Republican* will stay ou f . of the primary, because it it a Democratic primary. The ruling of the board follows: "There are two primaries held on June 3, 1922. One a "Democratic" and one a 'Republican." The Democrats vote in one, the Repubican in the other. No Repubican haa any busi ness in Una Democratic primary; like wise, no Democra. has a right to par ticipate in the Repubican primary. "Sec'ion 6,031 of. the Consolidated Statute:-, being same section of the Election law, is very full and minute upon the voter's rights. 1 request all interested in the question to read this section. It is mandatory that when a votei offers himself to vote in a primary he shal declare the political party wil). which he affiliates and in whose pri mary ne desires to v >te. If a voter, theretofore Republican, declares that he affiliates with the Democratic pa ty, and he desires to v ite in the Di ocratic primary, he has u right to so; but he cannot vto for a particular candidate in fiat l'rimary, snd hold on to his Republican affiliation. O. course, tho same z-ule would apply ii a Democrat desire dto chairge his pui ty affiliations. "A voter changing his party affili ation pledges himself to vota. in th»> November election, for the party nom ,'neus.

J lunos of Robersonville and three dep uties took a stroll out in the neigh borhood northwest of Parmele. They followed a path through the woods for some distance and found a bag of sugar, following the some trail for a short way thoy came upon a mule and cart, two bags of meal and sev eral empty jugs. The mule had been there all night from all indications. The party then secreted themselves and waited until sunrise. No one com ing, they continued the trail and found at the end of two or three hun dred yards a real "King" of plants. It consisted of two 160 gallon steam stills, about 2,000 gallons of beer, a bay of meal, two bags of sugar and a good supply of tools and in the bushes nearby was 60 gallons of corn whiskey. The officers then stepped aside for a tittle while and in about twenty minutes a negro named Bill Manning from Pitt county come to the still, pulled otT his coat and went to work After viewing things for a while tliey arrested him and waited again for others to come to work. But shortly after a gun report was heard from the same direction where the sheriff had left his car, this being a signal from some friend to put the opera tors on their guard. All the liquor, both stills, beer and equipment were destroyed except the mule and cart, the sugar and meal, which were taken into custody. All evidence .indicates that all of the operators of this plant were Pitt c'ouny people of the Bethel district.
