A Card.
Ton are reepeetf ally warned Dot to
take the statements of any B St L
Association that promises better term
than the Southern for each state
meats can't be substantiated. Be
ware of those assoeiatloas that prom
ise so much and have nothing to
sho w f or the same. We have facts right
here to Raleigh, which prove all
that we claim. No B & L Assooia
tlon whose charge Is 60c per share
can mature its stock under seven
years. The Southern is the oldest
association In the sooth and the
largest in America, and from its ex
perienoe in its five and a half years
of business confidently expects to
mature in seven years.
The Southern's expenses are less
per share than in any other assocla
tion, and no other association has
btter facilities for maturing stock
nor can any other association max
tare its stock under seven years
time at 60c per share. We sell paid
op stock at $30 per share of $100
anc pay you 10 per cent interest on
same from time you take stock until
its matarity after you have been in 9
years, ion can withdraw this paid
up stock (same as getting it out of
bank) in six months it yoa want to
and tret 6 per cent interest.
We challenge any association to
show in print or by "gift of gab" a
better or as safe an investment. Re
collect the Southern has $3,508,600 in
stocks, bonds and mortgages deposit
ted as security for its stockholders
that can't be used for any other par.
pose, f confidently believe and know
that any investment in the southern
Is as secure and safe as in any bank
in Raleigh or elsewhere.

Gall on U O McDonald, secretary
and treasurer Raleigh Branch, for
Information.
P S I forgot to mention one very
Important matter to you. Suppose
you have 10 shares of stock in any of
the following companies and have
paid, in 12 monthly payments of $6
each on same and want to withdraw
at end of year, illustration:
Am't paid in 12 monthly
payments at $6, $72 00
What do yoa get back?
Am't p'd into loan fund, $60 00
Interest for average time, 1 80 61 80
You only lose first year,
How is in the Southern?
Am't paid in 12 monthly
payments at $6,
What you get back:
$10 20
172 00
Am't paid in loan fund, 60 00
Am't paid in to Ex. fund, 12 00
Interest for average time, 1 44 73 44
More than you paid in $1.44
And only eleven and sixty-four
one hundreth dollars more than you
get in these other associations.
Suppose we figure on 2 years on
these other associations :
Am't paid in 24 monthly
payments at $6, $144.00
What do you get back ?
Am't pd. in to loan fund $120,00
Int for average time 7 20 127 20
Yon lose in 2 years $16.80
flow is it in the Southern ?
Am't paid in 24 monthly
payments at $6 $144.00
What you get back :
Am't pd. into loan fund $120.00
Am't paid in to Ex. fund 24.00
In't at 10 per cent for
average time 14.40 158.40
Yoa get back more than
paid in $14.40
Which is just thirty on dollars and
twenty cents more than you get in
thee other associations in two years.
Is this not worth saving? What do
yoa go into Building and Loan Assoo
ciationsfor? Is it not for profit ?
What is the difference in the South
ern of Knoxvllle and these other as
sociations? Simply this:
We pay back in case of withdrawal
all that is paid in the loan and ex
PENse fund with interest and they
only par back what is paid into loan
fond. Example : Each share is 60c.
per month 50c goes into loan fund
and 10c into expense fund. We pay
back the 60c and they only pay back
50 cents on 10 shares. My friend,
you save $1 per month in case
of withdrawing by being in the
old reliable Sort hern of Knoxvllle.
For fair and square dealing take
stock in the Southern. Call and
see me and if I can't substantiate all
that I have Baid in this card i will
orf eit 10 shares to any one who can
convince me that I am in error. I
know what I am "giving you." In
the Southern no loan no pay. Yoa
don't even have to take stock before
yoa get the loan. Yoa can pay for
your stock out of money loaned in
case of a loan. Don't be roped in
with promises of a loan and get left.
Yoa cau't get yoar money back. I
have misplaced my list of associations
that only pay back what has been
paid into loan fund, bat have com
m it ted them to memory and will give
uam to yoa for what they are worth
on application. ' I will venture this
statement, that nine people out of
ten who take stock In those associa
tions which only pay back what goes
Into loan f and don't know their con
tract. 1 have ran across only one,
and I have wen several of them, who
did not think he would get back
all of bis monthly payneuts with in
terest. You never were more sadly
mistaken in your life, my friend, and
if you live Ion? enough will soon be
a wiser man. Where yoa pay in $3 on
S shares yoa get back $2.50, and
where you pay in $3 voa get back $5.
In the Southern when yoa pay in $3
you get it all back and when yoa pay
in $6 you get it all back. I suppose
that the Raleigh public is sufficiently
educated on B St L to know that the
admission fee is not returned In any
case, but after paying admission once
it is good in the Southern for all time
to come.

A $io,oooSuit Over a Spanking.
New York, May 18. Claudius Os
trom, 10 years old, has a natural
enthusiasm for baseball, and he threw
his ball over the fence into broker
Charles H Griffins yard. The broker
caught young Ostrom and gave him
what he describes as a -'spanking."
Dr Harmer L Ostrom, the boy's faths
er, brought suit against the broker
for $10,000 damages for assaulting his
boy. The case will be tried at the
coming term of the supreme court.
No Hope for Agreement,
Cleveland, O, May 18.-This is the

The miners and operators, before the
convention was called to order .seemed
as far apart as they ever were, and at
the hotels where the operators are

His Death Omened by a Big Rat,
New York Herald.
Superstitious old women residing in
and about No 111 Charlton street
were sagely wagging their heads last
night and attributing the violent
death of Michael Kilbride to the fact
that a large rat ran up the leg of his
trousers a week ago and was killed by
him.
He was eighteen years old, and had
been employed for the last year as an
elevator boy by the Mount Morris
electric light company, corner of
Greenwich aDdVandam streets.
The elevator is used to cairy freight,
and is open except for a single guard
rail that runs about it from the cor
ners. There is a small ledge two feet
wide between the elevator shaft and
the wall on the Vandam street side.
Kilbride went up to close a window
on the third floor shortly after six
o'clock last night. When he stepped
off on the narrow ledge to close the
window he dH not fully stop the ele
vat or. It moved slowly up about four
feet while his back was turned toward
it.
Turning round quickly, he made a
step to get into the elevator, which
he thought was flush with the ledge.
He went down the elevator shaft, and
struck the basement floor on his head,
breaking his neck.
"While standing on the corner of
Hudson and Vandam streets, just a
week ago tonight," said policeman
Carroll, "a big rat ran up the leg of
Kilbride's trousers. It reached his
thigh before he could catch it. He
grabbed it by the head from the out
side, and choked it to death
"All the old women in the neigh
borhood and the companions of Kil
bride told him that it was a sure sign
of death, but he only laughed at
them."
E very-body is going, are you?
Where? Why to the Guilford battle
ground with the Central 8 S. When
are they going? Why text Wednes

SAVED FROM THE NOOSE.
A Woman's Losing Her Job Causes It.
Atlanta Journal, 18th.
It is very fortunate for Frank Cole
man, a prisoner in the Jasper county
jail, that Ellen Fears lost her job.
Else be might have lost his life today
in a very humiliating, not to say un
just, manner.
Coleman has always had a fondness
for dancing, like many others of his
race. To this is traceable his trouble.
He attended an affair of that kind
last fall He had a partner and also
a rival in the person of Bill Smith.
Unfortunately for the peaceable re
lations of the trio, the woman trod
on Bill's toes. Naturally he quarrel
ed with her escort, and securing the
assistance of .his brother attacked
Coleman. It was a long wished for
opportunity. There had been bad
blood between them for a number of
months.
The two brothers, one armed with
a pistol and the other with a razor,
finally started in to end their oppo
nent. He got the drop on them,
however, and shot in rapid succes
sion. One was killed, and the other
lost his lower jawbone and numerous
teeth.
There was but one witness. The
woman involved had fled, and Ellen
Fears had come up at the time the
fatal shots were fired.
Coleman was tried in March. Ellen
had gone to an adjoining county to
take a position as a domestic. The
prisoner was lacking bis witness. His
protests that he had onej seemed
flimsy. His claim of self defense was
not substantiated, and he was con
victed and sentenced to hang May 18,
That's today. At 10 o'clock this
morning Coleman would have expi
ated his crime upon the gailows. All
the preparations to that end were
made. Very luckily, Ellen lost her
job Tuesday, and went back to Mon-
ticello. She heard of the doomed
man's predicament, and told what
she knew of the affair. As the wo
man bore a respectable reputation
her version fixed the whole matter. J
Application was immediately made
for a respite, Here was another pem
culiar state of affairs. The governor
was in Dallas. Yesterday afternoon
he came home j use in the nick of
time and as soon as the matter was
presented to bim he granted Coleman
a lease of life until Jane 15, in order
that he may receive a new trial.
