Federal Court convenes in this city this morning- and , the court officials, jurymen and others interested in the proceedings have already arrived and are in readiness to take up their duties. There are quite a number of cases on the docket during the week, among which are several cases in which the defendnants are charged with retailing and distilling spirituous liquors contra ry to the Internal Revenue Law. Probably the most important case on the docket is tint in which W. O. Saunders, editor of the Independent and the Down Homer, published' at Elizabeth City, ia charged with sending obscene literature through the maih This case will probably be taken up Wednesday morning and will in all probability consume the entire day, if not longer. Mr. Saunders has se cured the services of A. D. Ward, one of the most brilliant lawyers in the State to defend him, and a hard fight will be made to clear the defendant of the charges against him. Ex-Gv, W. W. Kitchin will assist Mr. Ward Much interest centres around the Saunders case and there is no doubt but that the court room will be crowded to its utmost capacity while this trial is in progress and the coutcome will be awaited with interest all over the Stnte FIGHT FOR TWELVE HOURS. Strikers And Deputy Sheriffs In Battle. Ludlow, Col., Oct. 26. A general battle between strikers, mine guards and deputy sheriffs was wages for 12 hours today in Berwin Canyon at Has' Tings and rrrthe vicinity of the do rado and Southeastern at Ludlow. Firing started at 3 o'clock this morning and continued, intermittently until nearly 4 o'clock this afternoon One mine guard was killed and ac cording to union men, one striker is missing. The situation is extremely critical tonight. More than 700 armed strik ers are reported to be inthe ;eld against the mine guards. Armed strik ers patrol the entire district in the vicinity of Ludlow and communication with the camps of Cedar Hill, Toller- burg, Berwin, Hastings, Del Agua and Tobasco practically has been cut off, the tiring started this morning in the vicinity of the. Colorado and Southeastern bridge. At daylight the strikers from the Ludlow tent Colony made their way along the hills to Tobas and opened a heavy fire on that camp. The guard who was killed was struck while he was returning the fire of the strikers there. The attack' on Hastings began at about 11 o'clock. Shots rained on the camp u from two quarters for nearly two hors but according to officials of The Victor American Fuel Company, no serious damage was done. The final skirmish of the day was an attack by strikers near Burnes Sta tion on a Denver and Rio ' Grande train which the strikers declared was . . ,canyJ ne guards' MAYSVILLE BAlVK IS' A STRONG ONE.

' The business men of the AT MIGHT fit"': Firework Display Tomorrow And Thursday - Nljhts. WILL OPERATE SPECIAL TRAINS Admission To Grounds Will Bel Only Twenty-Five Cents. Tomorrow night and on Thursday ' night the Eastern Carolina Fair Grounds will be open to the public. Last year the , Fair grounds were closed at night and there were many, for whom it was I impossioie to leave tneir wortc aunng the day, who failed to attend the Fair. , This year it will be different, the grounds and buildings nave been illuminated with several thousand elec- j trie lights and these will be ablaze on two nights during the week. As a special attraction for tomorrow and Thursday nights the management ol the Fair have secured an elaborate fireworks exhibit. The exhibit is one of the best on the market and J. Leon Williams, secretary of the Fair Assuciation Company and who saw thedis play at the Richmond Va., Fair, says that without a doubt it is the best he has ever witnessed. In order that visitors who desire to return home on the same night, the railroads operating into New Bern will run special trains, leaving the city about 10:30 o'clock and everybody will have an opportunity of visiting the grounds and seeing this display. Another thing that will b of intereste to the public in regard to the Fair at night will be the fact that the ad mission fee will be only twenty-five cents, and that the admission to the grandstand will also be only a quarter of a dollar. This will be an excellent opportunity to see the sights at a reduced price, but naturally those who attend in the day will see more and it will of course be worth fifty, cents. Three separate vaudeville acts: . Tratyj and Carter. Comedy singing and talking. Miss Madeline Disston, Singing Comedienne. James Edge. Novelty equilibrist. We cheerfully recommend all these acts, as being far above the average. They received much appaluse last night from a packed house. PICTURES. Feature! "Feature!! Feature!!! "Goood For Evil." Is a two reel special release by Lubin. This picture will make 'yu s't up and take notice." it matters not what you are. A splendid lesson is taught by this subject. Then we have a farce comedy by Biograph: "Father's Chicken Dinner," Also another farce comedy: "The Suffragette Minstrels." Both these' comedies are side splitters. You never make a mistake when you come to the Athena. Every modern comfort and convenience was observed in its sonstruction. "Built for business" from the ground up. There is also an air of refinemenlf about the place that impresses you the very minute you enter the door. No equal in North Carolina; and but few in the South. Matinee daily at 3:45. Two shows at night, first starts at 7:30, second about 9 o'cluck. No advance in prices. Miss Eva Piplin, of Baird's Creek, was in the city yesterday visiting rela tives. - j W. R.

V HIS RESIDENCE IS GUARDED Ezpres Belief That War Depart ment Will Grant His Re quest For Retirement. Vera Cruz, Oct. 27. The last shred binding General Feliz Diaz and Gen eral Victoriano Huerta was severed today when General Diaz telegraphed to the department of war his resigna tion as a brigadier general of the army. The negotiations regarding Diaz's rc. turn to the capital ended by his flat refusal to accompanv Colonel Vidaur razaga, secretary to General Blanquet, giving as his reason the illness of his wife. Colonel Vidaurrazaga continued his efforts to induce General Diaz to change his decision but finally left for the capital on a special train tonight. Diaz and his family remained here. The few partisans of Diaz who haw- stood guard in his rooms at the hotel the last four days also left for their homes in Mexico City, but a handful of supporters are still here subject to the orders of their political chief. The building is being closely watched by plain clothes men and police. General Diaz expresses t ho Ielii'r that the war department will grant hi-! application for retirement, though a few of his friends pessimistically point to the possibility that the answer may come in the form of an order of ar rest. General Diaz said tonight he realized that he had no chance for elec tion to the presidency. His plans for the future are not yet made, but he expects to establish a temporary resi dence in Vera Cruz. Senora Diaz is not seriously ill, but sufficiently so to serve as an excuse early in the day for delay in. Diaz's re turn to the capil.il. Colonel Vidaurra azga's importunities event ually result ed in the frank declaration from Diaz that he did not intend to go. Only casual interest in the election was shown by Diaz. The only inc: dent personally touching him w.is the arrest of ' his brother-in-law l.eindre Alcolea, for alleged interference at one of the polls. Senor Alcolta protested against what he considered irregulari ties and a poliiem in joined him in the discussion.

Physicians ia the. early days of the United States were regarded as "pep sons of extraordinary character,'! and were accordingly given a special share of the profits of the Virginis company, according to their service rendered to the colony. Another less practical sort of remuneration is indi- . cated In a certain document from the council of Virginia to the Heralds in England, which states that the name " of certain physicians are to be Insert ed In a given paper "lest those digni taries be offended at not being given aue prominence."
