RESULT JUSTIFIES THE COST Also The Years Of Effort On The Part Of The Good Roads Advocates Of County. Charles L. Stevens of Southport, former editor and owner of the Journal, was always an .earnest advocate of good roads while he was in the pub lishing business and he has not lost his Interest and enthusiasm in. this great means of developing the country since embarking in the real estate and insurance business in an'other locality. He was one of the visiting Elks in Wilmington last week and with the other representatives of the ant lered tribe enjoyed the splendid auto mobile ride over the fine roads of New Hanover. At the request of one now feonnected with the Journal and also a recipient of the numerous courtesies extended visiting Elks by the Elks of Wilmington Mr. Stevens wrote an article, which is presented below, in which he gave his impressions of the automobile ride given by the Wil mington lodge: "As an Elk, attending and enjoy ing the splendid entertainment pro vided by Wilmington, at the State Convention of Elks, last eeek, there was one feature, that to me, and I know a number of other Elks feeling the iame way, that of the automobile ride ,was one of the best and most interesting. - "This ride was not given for any advertising( effect, but to any one concerned in good roads. To any one noting the difference between a road that is good, and one that is just a road, the Wilmington ride could not but be mpst attractive. Looking further into this, it must be remem bered that Wilmington and New Han over county is k sea-shore country, with all that means in the way of sand and more sand. But those enjoying last Friday's ride gave little thought to this, whirling swiftly at thirty or forty miles an hour over a road way so. level and smooth thot there is only the sensation of gliding, there is only the desire to lie back and take in the quickly passing scenery, without any mental effort just enjoy the ride and have the "rich-feeling" of a motor cap owner. "But this ride of 25 miles, over continuous fine roads, that gave im pression 'of endless smoothness and made the ride short, when ended, has only been made possible throjgh years of effort on the part of the advocates of good roads. It has meant voting, issuing,, and selling $230,000 worth of bondsj. but the result is one hun dred .miles ?f paved and macadam roadways that make city and county onef-without, that nearly, ajways dis tinguishing division between city and county, the drop from a paved road way into .deep sand or impassable mud. iJ'wilmingtpn' and New-' Hanover county;, good roads ; have 'iven rich results in suburban developments, and thiswas prominently before the eye of .'every plk, who, 'cared to look, as thethotor' cars swept,; in a line of over a! mile tti length, carrying the Elks through Sub-division after sub-division, witft ' itheir ' beautiful homes, making suburban residence a joy for thousands. , VWhen. the : sub-division left off. therias the country, V ;WltlCTa'id in fine, :,bultlvation,L with '-artrojsf-oii porch or" (n field, familUr'wIth the iight oft lie speeding motorar yet .often" pausing frpni' work, W" noj- the pass- i Ingj 'particularly;; sojonfastl Friday, j when Elk banners and streamers' were waved at them., .

ENROUTE TO MOREHEAD CITY Warrants Will Be Sworn Out For Consignees And they Must Face Court. A. H. Stephens of Oriental, Sheriff of Pamlico county, was in the city yesterday attending to official business and in an interview with a Journal reporter gave the details of the locating and capture of half a car load of Whis key and beer at Oriental last Friday night. According to Sheriff Stephen's ac count of the affair thirty-five barrels of beer and thirty cases of whiskey, consigned to two men at Morehead City, arrived at Oriental last Friday afternoon, coming via New Bern. In some way one of the bottles containing the spiritus furmenti had been broken in transit and the contents of this had trickled over the floor and was emkting an odor which in the parlance of the Sheriff was "strong enough to walk." Passing by the car Sheriff Stephens caught a whiff of this and naturally his suspicions were aroused. After considering the matter, he swore out a warrant under the search and seizure act and called upon the railroad agent to open up the ca. The agent at first refused to do this but later saw his error and informed the officer that the car contained whiskey and beer and also gave him the names of the consignees. Sheriff Stephens learned from the agent that a boat would arrive from Morehead City about 9 o'clock at night to transfer the shipment and he at once planned to capture the crew of the vessel with the cargo, on their hands. The shades of evening fell and the Sheriff was right "on the job", patiently waiting for the men (rom Morehead City to arrive on the scene. Shortly, after 9 o'clock the chug-chug-chug sf a powerful motor boat was heard in the direction of Adam's Creek and a few minutes later the craft drew up along side the railroad wharf. Inside of the station went the captain of the boat and signed for the bee; and whiskey and it is believed by the SheriffThat the agent "tipped" him off that there was trouble brewing for after coming out of the depot he made a bee-line for his boat and within less than a minute the engines had begun their rymthic purr and the boat was soon out of sight . Realizing that the whiskey and beer would not be claimed, Sheriff Stephens removed it from the car and now has it stored under lock and key, in the ice house at that place and it will be held there until the next term of Pam lico county Superior Cou.t. She. iff Stephens also stated that he would swear put warrants against the con signees and that they would have to explain the entire- affair to the Jugde. STEAMSHIP IS REPORTED ON FIRE. New York, June 9. No further ad vices were received today regarding the steamship Olinda of the Munson line reported on fire at sea somewhere off the Georgia coast. It is believed the vessel was heading for Savannah or Brunswick.' The line's officers re ceived two wireless messages giving no Information except that the vessel was on fire in hold No. 1 and that the vessel was making for oort. The Olinda left here Friday with nasseneers and freight for Cuban points. y -' ; .1 iii ill ,. NOT . A DICTATOR, SAYS SIM- F"V'. v. MONS. , ' ' . . Waehlmrton. D.

Will Be Generally Fair With Mod erately Low Temperatures. Washington, June 9. Under the influence of high barometric pressure that covers the eastern half of the country, the weather will be generally fair with moderately low temperatures during the next several days over the eastern States, the Great Centra Valleys and the Lake region, while local rains are probable the first part of the week along the South Atlantic and Gulf Coasts. Temperatures above the seasonal average with generally fair weather will prevail during the week west of the Mississippi Valley No important storm will cross the country the corning week, but a dis turba nee that is now forming over the Western plateau region will advance slowly eastward, preceded by a general rise in temperature and attended by local thunder showers, and cross the Middle West about Thursday and the eastern States near the end of the week. A general reaction to normal temper ature will set in over the Great Valleys and the eastern States after Tuesday LOOKED FOR SNOWBIRDS No June Bugs Seen In New Bern Yesterday. According to all accepted theories this is the month of June but there were mightly few June bugs floating in New Bern and vicinity yesterday. Instead every one was looking in all directions for the snowbirds and those who had "pulled 'cm off" -felt like "putting 'em on" again. Sunday morning the temperature began to drop and this was followed by rain. At intermittent periods during the day there were showers and still the mercury lowered. At 10 o'clock Sunday night many over coats were in evidence. Yesterday morning dawned cold and cloudy and later rain began o fall and at frequent periods during the day there was a deluge. At mid night it was still cold enough for an overcoat and while there were dense clouds overhead, the rain had ceased to fall. According to the prognosti cation of a well known prophet, the weather is "freakish" and may remain in this state for several days. SUPPOSED FIRE THINGS HAPPENED QUICKLY WHEN SMALL BOY GAVE THE ALARM. A small boy passing the Gaston Motel yesterday afternoon saw smoke is suing from the top of the bulding and thinking the structure was afire, rushed into the ofiice and excitedly informed Manager R. A. Cherry that his es tablishment ws burning. The announcement rather staggered the genial host of the Gaston and it might truthfully be said that for a few moments he "lost his head". A young business man of the city was standing in the lobby at the time and as soon as he heard the word "fire" made a bee-line for the alarm box on the corner of South Front and Middle streets and sent in a hurry-up call for the fire companies. For five minutes or more, during which time the fire fighters arrived, all was hub-bub around the hotel, followed by a general exodus for the street and places of safety. After making an investigation it was found that she smoke was issuing from one of the chimneys on the East side of the building and that the wind was blowing in such a direction that this was carried down to the eaves of the roof, making it appear as though the fire were actually located at that point.

FINE SERVICE SUNDAY NIGHT" Another Good One Last Night Christians And Public Cor dially Invited. The Tabernacle tent meetings are surprising the most enthusiastic among the leaders. The heavy rain on Sun day did not keep back the crowds. There were 150 present in the Sunday school and a large congregation pres ent at the morning worship. Mr. Phillips preached on "The Wonderful Christ," and Mr. and Mrs. Brown sang "Holy Quietness." This service was very impressive and greatly en joyed by every one present. The services at night however was the one which so greatly supprised every one. Even though it had rained in torrents all day, the tent was about half or two-thirds filled. Mr- J- Cj. Brown led the large choir in rendering an enthusiastic song service after which he and Mrs. Brown sang a beautiful duet. Mr. Phillips preached at this service on "Prayer", basing his remarks on the 12th chapter of the Acts, which gives the account of Peter's being prayed out of prison. At the conclusion of the sermon, a large number stood requesting prayer for friends and loved ones. This was the best service so far during the series of meetings. . Monday Night. The congregation last night was even better than Sunday night and the spirit of the meeting was very fine. The large choir was 'on hand early and rendered a very sweet song service. Mr. and Mrs. Brown sang "a Clean Heart" just before the sermon. Mr. Phillips preached on "Hosea's Vision," using a part of the 14th chapetr of Hosei. He announced that he would conclude the study of the chapter tonight. The meeting is deepening in interest at each service and the leaders are ex pecting great things before it closes. All Christians regardless of denom ination are invited to co-operate in the work and the public is invited. Song service begins tonight at 7:45 sharp and preaching about 8:15.
