Vestal of High Point was in : dieted for murder in performing a I criminal operation upon a young woman who died from the effects of it, came to a sudden ending this morning in the Guilford superior court. When court opened the solicitor accepted a plea of manslaughter ten dered by the council for the defend ant and Dr.y Vestal was sentenced ' by Judge Lyon to 10 years hard labor in the State penitentiary. In pronouncing the sentence the judge remarked that it was the sad I dest case he nad ever heard, but j that he trusted the sentance would ! be an example to others who may try to follow Dr. Vestal’s work. It ] was an awful crime and the end of 'justice must be __ met, yet he [ hoped that the honorable profession of medicine would not be held to account for the misdeeds of one man amidst the whole. The case of Mrs. Vestal was dis missed. The doctor seemed to realize the fate that awaited him as he came into the court room today, and as the sentance was pronounced he did not seem to be disturbed in the least, but sat quietly chewing a toothpick.

Good Teams • - Phone No. 12 :havez crosses the alps. Domodossola, Italy, Sept. 23.— rhe great feat of crossing the snow :apped Alpine barrier between Swit serland and Italy in a heavier-than air machine was accomplished today by George Chavez, the young Peru vian aviator. The plucky hero of the exploit, however, lies in the Domodossola hospital badly injured as the result of an accident that occurred just as be had completed the most arduous and nerve-racking portion of a task be had snt out to accomplish—a flight from Brig, in Switzerland, across the Alps to Milan, in Italy, in all a distance of about 72 miles. Both his legs are broken, his left thigh is fractured and his body is badly contused, but his physicians are of the opinion that these inju ries will not prove fatal, The acci dent occurred as Chavez was en deavoring to make a landing here. The Alps had been crossed success fully and the aviator was descend ing with the power of his machine cut off. When about 30 feet above the ground a sudden gust of wind seemed to catch the monoplane, which turned over and fell. When the crawds that had been watching the descent ran up they found Cha vez lying bleeding and unconscious beneath the twisted wreckage. Willing hands lifted the aviator from the ground and bore him to the hospital. rmy miles away and over coun try that has none of the hazards of the Alps lay Milan, the goal Cha vez was seeking in an effort to win the $20,000 prize offered by the Italian Aviation Society. The weather at Brig was clear and bright when Chavez made his start. Leaving the ground with his motor running at full speed he rose in sweeping circles until he had reached an altitude sufficient for him to clear the Resti shoulder to the southeastward of Brig. This obstacle having been overcome, the Peruvian aviator headed his mono plane straight for the snow-capped crags of the Fletchorn. Constantly ascending, Chavez reached the Simp son Kulm, where at an altitude es timated at 7,200 feet he turned his machine south over the terrifying Simplon pass, with the Kaltwasser glacier at his left and the frozen peak of the Hubschorn at his right. After crossing the divide, instead of taking a short cut over the Mon chers pass, a huge edged glacier, Chavez turned to the towering white mountain head of Monte Leone, which rises to a height of 16,646 feet and passes down above the gondo gorge, a deep gulf between sheer walls, until he reached the open val ley of Vedro and then descended easily toward Domodossola, which is 889 feet above sea-level. It was here that the accident occurred. The 25 miles between Brig and Domodossola, which it took the ar mies of Napoleon a fortnight to negotiate, Chavez accomplished by the route of the eagle is exactly 40 minutes. From the high point at Monsera he descended 7,000 feet in 13 minutes, his machine gaining in momentum as it flew over the jum ble of lower peaks, gullies and hills beyond until the speed was terrific as it approached the aerodrome here. This doubtless caused the ac cident which turned the cheers of admiration of the waiting crowd into cries of horror as the machine came hurling to the ground just as it seemed that Chavez was about to alight in safety. After treatment in the hospital Chavez regained cousciousness. He suffered terribly from his hurts. The generally accepted opinion is that the accident was due to a slight Bhift in the rudder while the ma chine was going at a high rate of speed. Harry Weymann, the American aviator, who made two unsuccessful attempts in the Brig-Milan race to day, sent a telegram of sympathy to Chavez. Much sympathy is ex pressed here for Weymann, who made a last and desperate effort to win the race after hearing that Cha vez had met with an accident. He managed to climb over the Resti shoulder, but finding that the aero plane was incapable of flying higher he returned to Brig and alighted. ^ The Lath af a Fiend would have been about aa welcome to A.

A day in the Fall, to be selected later, will be set apart to enable every male resident of this State, men and boys, to contribute, much or little, as the ability may allow or their hearts dictate, to the erection of a State Monument to the Women of the Confederacy. This high duty has been too long delayed. Let the people by their generosity, and from the means these women made it possible for them to accumulate, make amends for such unfortunate delay, by the more liberal contribu tion. Let the year 1910 close with the surety that honor will be paid to these heroines. Let the world know that the men of the State ap preciate these woman’s devotion to “a cause they loved so well.” A nust approprate and handsome Souvenir Tag will be given, as an evidence that the donor has contributed to preserve the mem ories of a Womanhood of whom he is proud to whom he is proud and to whom he owes an eternal debt of gratitude. The good women, the charming girls and pretty miss es, daughters and granddaughters of these women, who deem it a privilege to aid in honoring their mothers and grandmothers, will undertake the distribution of these Souvenir Tags. God save the mere man wMo fails to immediately sur render to their charm and to their presentation of his duty. Even those who do not sympa thize with the late Confederacy, liv ing in this State under the present prosperity these women have made possible, will honor themselves in honoring a grand womanhood, whose noble devotion to what they loved entitles them to all respect. Their memories should be preserved for the emulation of all who strive to do their duty as their consciences dic tate. What the people of the State of the late Confederacy owe these wo men, not only for their inspiration to the soldiers, not only for their maintenance of the homes, not only for their loving care of the sick and of the graves of the dead, not only for their preservation of the memories of their heroes, but for their devotion, their fortitude, their aid since the death >f the Con federacy, which animated and en couraged the men in their stupendous effort to rescue their State from the very slough of despondency and to rebuild its shattered fortunes: is all too well known and felt to make it necessary to urge their claims. Men! Boys! You know your duty. Do it! And show by your liberality that you fully appreciate all that these women have done for your State and for you.

Anderson, on River street, was frightened almost out of his wits the other day. While he was engaged in retouching some of the interior work, a small snake crawled out of a pocket in his overal, across the hand that held the brush, and finally, in the excitement that fol lowed, wiggled through a crack and made good its escape. The incident occurred after noon hour. The night before Ellison had left his overalls in an outhouse, and the snake must have crawled into the pocket then to keep out of the cold. All day Mr.. Ellison worked with the reptile in his pocket, knowing nothing about its presence there.— Anderson (S. C.) Mail. It Saved His L«(. "All thought I'd lose my leg," writes J. A.

And among them was Miss Belle Hamrick, daughter of Mr. Kelly Hamrick, operated on for deft palate by Dr. Shoemaker last Satur day, September 10th. The opera tion was a marvelous success. The young lady is 18 years old and had never been able to speak any word distinctly. Soon after the operation and she had recovered from the anaesthetic, she called her brother’s name and quite distinctly for the first time in her life. THE OLD FOLKS. The deepest of human longings is just to be wanted. This is why the world so often seems a lonely and unattractive place to old people, and why they so often pray to leave it. One by one their friends depart; and although they may be very lovable, because of lack of opportunity old people do not make many new friends. One cannot know unless he has lived with one of them how much they appreciate being told that they are loved and how necessary it is to repeat the little kindness that it is in one’s power to confer on them. The constant repetition of little attentions counts more- to most old people than an isolated attention or gift that would to a younger person bulk very large. And this because the very aged person forgets from day to day and even from hour to hour what has been said and done for them. I know one old man who has four sons. One of these sons is a man whose hair is almost as white as his father’s, but for twenty years he has never missed a week in which he did not send his father a letter. Thr father, I believe, while he re tains a strong affection for all his sons, is particularly tender toward the son who remembers him in this simple fashion. Often the letter is not perhaps particularly interesting; often, indeed, it has to be hurriedly written. And no matter what comes or goes, the letter is always in the son’s thoughts that week. The other sons visit the father more fre quently, coming long distances to do so; but though their visits are enjoyed and appreciated, they are sooner or later forgotten, while the weekly letter is an oft-recurring source of satisfaction and pleasure. —Exchange.

The serious proposition of the Treasury Department to discontinue altogether the coinage of gold, is at tracting attention in financial cir cles. The proposition, as stated by The New Orleans Picayune, is that instead of coinage into money, the bullion will be merely made into bars of convenient size for shipment and of standard fineness and certi ficates will be issued by the govern ment against deposits of the bars as is now so generally done. The rea sons assigned for the proposed aban donment of gold coinage is that the coins are not circulated in the first place, and secondly, that when they are shipped or handled they lose in value by abrasion. The main use of gold nowadays is as security for currency and for shipment abroad in settlement of balances. Bars will serve these purposes better than coin, and as weight is the determin ing factor in any case, nothing is to be gained by the use of coin, where as on the other hand, there is sure to be some loss from coin abrasion to which bars properly packed for shipment are not exposed. The Picayune doubts whether the aban donment of gold coin would prove popular. Gold, it says, still circu lates in some parts of the country, and in most other countries gold coins are in general use and notes of small donominations are not em ployed. It would, therefore, be rather revolutionary for the United States to stop coining gold, even though at the moment but little gold coin circulates—Charlotte Chronicle. Whan Merit Wins.

Miller-White Co. Cornwallis Letters Found. Robert G., the 16-year-old son of R. P. McSwain, of Davie county, near Mocksville, while riding horse back, near Setzer’s Hill, found a sealed bottle. He broke the bottle and found that it contained two let ters written on January 13th, 1781. One of the letters was to Lord Corn wallis, who was then in command of the British forces, and the other to another dignitary. Robert sent the letters to a brother, who resides in Salisbury, and he in turn sent them to Washington. They were evident ly lost or hidden by a British cour ier, and were never found until they were discovered by McSwain. They are interesting relics of Revolution ary days and will no doubt bring to the finder, should he desire to dis pose of them, a handsome reward.
