NOTED TRAINER DEAD Nashville, March 19. John Harding,- the last of the noted Belle Meade f ' of breeders of famous thor 1 horses, is dead here. He was the .."hull pea" at El-Paso, Tex., where TOO MUCH WHISKEY T POLICEMAN FRED P. ROWE PLACES SOLOMON DIX ON UNDER ARREST Solomon Dixon, one of the. porters at the Gaston fiotel, was yesterday afternoon given a preliminary hearing l)efore Mayor A. H. Bangert on a war rant charging him with violating the law by ordering more than a certain (amount of whiskey during the past month. - Dixon was nabbed by Policeman F. 'fl Rowe. The officer has been keep ing an eye on him for several days and has seen him take five packages from the express car at the union station during the past nine days. Dixon evi dently' thought that by securing the piritus frumenti at the passenger station he would avoid the inconven ience of visiting the express office and probably being sent around to tha City Hall to explain why he ordered so much whiskey. i At the hearing yesterday afternoon the defendant was placed under bond of fifty dollars for his appearance at the next term of Superior Court. Bail in this- amount was furnished by his employers and he was released from custody. PAYS PAMLICO COUNTY i T SCHOOLS A VISIT , Raleigh, March 19, Mr. 1.. C.

A remark made yesterday by 'rinun as D. Warren, the new Chairman of '.e State Democratic Executive Com mittee, leads those who are famniiliar with the situation, to believe th;U an effort will be made when the Kxecu live Committee meets in KHleigh on March 15 to set ihe date for ihe State ("onvention, to have the original date changed to along about June Mr. Warren has not become thoe onghly initiated into thU new di:tit;; yet and is having his hands full keep ing 1 1 j with the correspondence and other work. A Jlhnrnl man dropped i.ito his .Hice this morning and found him engrossed in his w irk and with persperation streaming d-own his fore heqd. "Well, have yon and intima tion as to wh. t date will be s. lceted for the St ite Convention" quired the newspaper man of Mr. Warren. "Now, you have asked me a question which is entirely too direct and one which 1 would not dcare to answer directly. There has been a great deal of como tion on account of the rnahging or the original date and I am in a quan dary about it myself and am just wait ing for the meeting of the Executive Committee to .traighten the matter out." "It has been suggested thai I set the date by sorrespondence with the memvers of the Executive Committee, but this, it seems to me, would be al most an impossibility on account of the fact that it would require too much, correspondence and, I am afraid that it would prove entirely unsatis f.ictury. Therefore 1 think thit the rail tor the Kxerutivo l ommtttee to meet and decisde the matter, is the fairest and easiest way of settling the situation and agreeing up in a d ue. I was never more astonished in my life wdien, before leaving Raleigh, after being appointed Chairman of the Democratic Executive Committee 1 wis told that the dale set for our convention conflicted with anoother convention. No one else, I am sure, had any idea that such was the case, and we were all surprised. Now, as to whether the date set will bi in the latter part of June or in the ffrst part of the month, I cannot say, can only guess. A number are in favor of the latter part of the month while many think that it should be along about the third of the month. However, the matter will be settled next Wednes day. The general opinion in this part of the State, is that the date will bealong in the first part of the month. Thi belief is born out of the fact that there aare a number of events of importance to take place during the latter part of June and it is feared that if the date is set for th latter part of the month that there will be another ronffflict and further delav.
