Kvldence in the ease was that Trueblood and Munden iiad an al ienation last night at home on ? Beaeh street where Munden is a j roomer. Trueblood daimcd Muu* 'den slabbed him under the left arm with a knife, or similar in strument. Muuden denied that.

The county commissioners pres I ent at the session from more than 50 counties in the State, showed great interest in all the matters jlaken up before the convention, 'but were especially Interested In ;the report of the Commission on County CJovernment, of which Dr. |K. C. Brooks was chairman, and in which seven present defects In county government were pointed [out and remedies for each suggest j i cd. Although Dr. Brooks told the icommisMloncrn very plainly just where they were to blame, and did not spare them in the least, hi* frankness won instant approval and when Ihe report of the com missioners almost unanimously, ani II was read section by section. | An interesting and Instructive 'address on the workings of the State school equalization fund, and how ii affected the various coun ties. was presented by A.

Four front-wheel drive "baby" racing Imotorn, powerful but until recont ! ly untried product of tho Miller factory in California will bo en tered among (lie competing speed > craft for the race in Charlotte on ! August 23. according to a tele graphic announcement received here today. For year* the'front wheel drive racing car has been considered unsafe and not until Karl Cooper's spectacular success at Salem last month did this type of xpeed boat obtain support. Dave l^ewi*. an iiidoiunitable pilot who has aided materially In the de velopment of the front-wheel drive type, will use his car in the classic here. Lewis has consistently piloted ; his front-wheel mount over the principal track* of the country. He has also suffered some bad spills, but the new devices are develop ing a high speed which has gained the front-wheel mechanism many supporters among the princes of the roaring road. Leon Duray. i the veteran, and Peter Krels are 'bringing brand new mount* of this itype. It Is granted by sport* writers over the country that the new sprint race idea is conducive to j high npecd. What the comblna tlon of new motors and front wheei drive ears may produce in lyet a matter of conjecture. It i* well known here, however, that many Icadinx deniien* of th?- roar in* road have nones turned toward iCharlotte and the sprint* expect ing some very classic driving on the eliptlcal track here.
