The unusual feature of the services at the Tabernacle Baptist church Sun day was . the installation service at which the newly elected officers of the B, Y. P. U were insta'led. Shprt ad dresses were made by the pastor, Rev M. WThiot, theSupterintendent of the Sunday school, Mr. Miller, and the presidaent of the B. Y. P. U., Mr. Coward. This service took the place of the reg ular morning preaching service and was both interesting and helpful. Pastor Thiot is giving o the Young People's work much thought and the young peo ple are already beginning to demon strate their rapid development under the wise and efficient leadership of their new pastor. The evening service was character ized by another wonderful and eloquent Many New Bcrnians Visit Tlie Seashore DELIGHTFUL TRIP ON BOAKD OF " MOTOR CAR About seventy-five New .Bernians took advantage of the opportunity to visit the seashore Sunday afternoon and went down on board of the Nor folk Southern ' Railway Company's motor car. .

Na- dine Weaver was working in a 10- cent store in . Kansas City, Kan., for $4.50 a week when she received a legacy of $1,200 a year ago. She had spent only $25 of her newly acquired riches ' wheh Rudolph Bloeser, . the handsome floorwalker, learned of her inheritance. In a 10-ceht store a girl with $1,200 in the bank is an heiress Nadine and Bloeser became engaged. On Oct. 6, the girl says, she drew $1,175 from the bank and entrusted it to her fiance. He said he 'would "put it in a safe place." They went to DesMoines, la., Nov., 4 and were married. 'Two days later he gave her $20 of her own money and told her to return to Kansas City', Mo., while he went to Scrantou, Pa., "to look for a location." He said he would also visit his mother and return in three weeks. The girl went back to live with her grandmother, but her place had been filled at the store. A few straggling letters came explaining that good lo cations were scarce. A week before Christmas a letter came in wUch Bloeser enclosed her $25 more (Of Iter own money and requested that Natdine get a divorce. '. "Don't ask me any questions, but if you love me do as I ask," he said. The girl swore out a warrant charg ing wife desertion and Sheriff Lee Hinch brought the husband home from Fort Wadsworth, Tex., and locked him in the Wyandotte County Jail on Christmas night. Two days later in answer to her husband's pleadings, she visited him in jail. He convinced her that he had not meant to desert her at all, that although he had spent three-fourths of the legacy, he .would pay it back. and that if let out of jail long enough he would find that location ana they would live happily ever afterward. When Bloeser's case was called in court, Nadine refused to prosecute and he was released. They lived to gether just one week, when -the hus band left again, taking with him the residue of the $1,750. The "location" has not been found yet. Nadine asked for a new warrant, but Prosecutor Meek refused to issue it . for fear that Nadine would again refuse to prosecute. She applied to the free legal aid bureau in Kansas City, Mo., but was told the offense had been committed in Kansas and a warrant could not be used in ' "Mis souri. . Then she went to saving up her small wages to obtain a divorce, and now the decree has been granted. . "I don't want to hear that man's name," she said. "It's a case of 'never' again for me. I'm done with the smooth talk and the oily tongues." JUDGMENT AWARDED SiONAALLEN AGGREGATE $3,000 DAMAGES AS RESULT OF RIOT AT . HILLSVILLE. . WYTHEVILLE, Va., July 27.

Cameroon,' pastor of the Central Bap tist Church,' has offered to tske upon hint self, the duty of proposing marriage to any young woman "of the ; congrega tion in behalf of any young iriatr in the church wo desires to mar'ryier.fJ'Vvj';; ' The .same proposition applies to the young women if they desire i 'to permit such proposal to the young men in most s ; cy in all negotiations promised by DEADLY EQUINE DISEASE COST T Glanders Epidemic Serious Proposi tion. DR. E. G. HARGETT TALKS. He and State Veterinarian To Make Attempt to Eradicate Disease. According to a statement made yes terday by Dr. E. G. Hargett, the.vetri narian for the city of New Bern and who discovered that the deadly equine ma lady, the glanders, was prevalent around Vanceboro this county, that disease bids fair to cause a loss of thou sands of dollars unless it is quick ly erad icated. Last Saturday Dr. Hargett and B. B. Flowe, the State Vetrinarian, went to Vanceboro and shot four of the afflicted animals. The killing of these beasts is in some cases a calamity to the owner, One man hadjust completed paying three hundred dollars for his horse and it was the only one in his stable. As the veterinarians fired the fatal shot which put the animal out of its misery, the owner drew an old bandana handker chief from his pocket and covered his face, down which tears were copiously flowing. In other cases practically the same condition prevailed. Unless the disease can be wiped out without delay, every horse in that section is likely to become afflicted and for that reason that dis trict has been quarantined and no horses are allowed to come out or go into that locality. Just how the disease reached Vanceboro is not known but it is gener ally supposed that an affected horse was shipped into that place from some Western market, and as the disease is very contageous, it quick ly spread. Mr. Flowe has returned to Raleigh for a few days but will return to Craven county some time during the week and in company with Dr. Hargett will wage a vigorous fight against the disease. So far as it is kf&t?w this is the first epidemic of the glanders in the history of Craven county. BOAT TRIP. Journal Man Recipient of the Honors. Roy Schupp, of the Pine Lumber Company, tendered H. S. Willey, of the Tournal staff, a motor boat trip Sunday. The guests' on the trip were Messrs. Terry, Bartling, Freymore, McLawhorn and Schaffer. Captain Luby Sutton carried the party about fifteen miles down the Neuse river where they dis torted themselves in the salt water. All pronounced the occasion a most de cided success.

The deepening of "The Thorough fare," a narrow ' and treacherous inlet connecting Core Sound with the waters to the North, will give a shorter route to small .craft froih Carteret county points to Pamlico Sound.

If there is a Pied Piper floating around the country looking for an opening, or in other words looking for a city that wants to get rid of its rats, there's no need of any further search, New Bern wants a man or in case the man can't be found, some suggestion as to how to get rid of the rats within a few weeks will be gladly received. Since the bubonic plague was discovered at New Orleans and the State Board of Health warned the authorities here and at Wilmington to be on the lookout and to make an attempt to get rid of the rats, the citizens and the health officers of this city have been doing some serious thinking. There is no probability that the bu bonic plague rats will ever reach New Bern but there is a possibility that this might occur and many of the citizens are of the opinion that it would be a good idea to get rid of several thousand of the rodents as early as possible. Congressman John M. Faison, congress man from the Third District, has sent broadcast over the district a useful bul letin on how to exterminate the rodents and many citizens are practising the methods advoacted therein. However, where there is an army of rats, as it is known to be the case here, such methods are rather slow and the results are not at all that sould be desired There is a probability that a rat killing campaign will be inaugurated here some time in the near future and a con centrated effort made to get rid of the rodents and thus avoid all possibility of the bubonic plague. OF JjUUU) VAUDEVILLE INTERESTS CALIFORNIA HEIRESS AND HUS BAND SURPRISE SOCI ETY FRIENDS. LOS ANGELES. July 27 - . Dorothy Vandervoort, miatreiM of . estate valued at $3000,000, and Sam uel S. Hinds, one of the bent known young clubmen of Pasadena, have stolen a march on friends and rela tives by getting married. The elopment for it is virtually regarded as such, although the cere mony was performed in Pasadena is the Crown City's social sensation of the year. Dodged Big Wedding. It is explained that the popular couple wished to avoid an ostenta tious wedding. The bride, in addition to being probably the wealthiest young woman in Southern California, has been a social favorite since her formal entry into society. The bridegroom is a son and one of the chief heirs of the founder of the United States Playing Card Company; is also a practicing attorney, and is secretary of the Annendale Country Club. He is active in politics and in response to the urging of the youn ger political element, has become a candidate for justice of the peace. Money In His Land. Hinds is about 35 and his bride 23 years old. Her wealth, which was inherited from her father and uncle, Pasadena pioneers, consists largely of real estate holdings. The young'people have departed on their honeymoon tour, which, it is ex pected will last. for several weeks and may embrace a tour to Honolulu and even to Japan. TO FIRST REGIMENT.

Stih-y-t.Khy: THE PEOPLE OF NEW BERN ARE 1 BE Don't Know Half About City'a Advantages and Resourses. WILL BE AN AMAZING STORY" Interesting Narrative of Our Great Development is to Be Told. People of communities rarely rea lize what each other are doing. They do not comprehend what they hear, or the progress they are making unless it is put before their eyes now and then, in facts and figures. Therefore progress edition, such as the Daily Journal has in courseof com pilation, have double value. They not only intorm the outside world of our development, of what we are making and of what we selling, and offering, but they tell our own citizens much they do not know. Many of the enterprises which will be described in the Greater New Bern Edition of the Daily Journal will be among those who seldom resort to ad vertising. Therefore the value, extent and va riety of their work and their growth and importance will be revelations even to their near neighbors, and with the general public will cause as much as- tonishnent as pleasure. The most comforting and saitsfac- tory reflection in connection with the stories of progress is that we are just at the beginning. Aside from agricultural and timber wealth, much of which is barely touch ed, the prosperity of this section is based on the soil and its strength and capacity and the people, and the en ergy and their force of character. We have learned by experience that our producing power can be increased many fold beyond what was dreamed of ten years ago. The railroads and water facilities have placed us in close touch m-ith the worlds markets, both (or buying and selling, made easily acrriwible, brought us the conveniences, oinforts and luxuries of life. U'e have every right to feel that we will go forward faster in the next few yearn, than ever before, and in that time gain more in wealth than we have gained in the past half century. Every thing is moving forward to gether, both in and around New Bern, and the ajacent towns. Our people are using not only the soil, but the other opportunities, the opening up of the country and in creasing capital, credit and wealth give them. Manufacturing is enlisting more thought, effort and investment. We are learning constantly that we can make things we have been buying out side, and not only keep our money at home but bring in more money. The obvious success of this branch of business means continuing success. Merchants are showing more cofi- dence than at any time in our history. and extending their trade territorjf- with results which will be wonderful to those who have kept themselves in fromed. Diversified farming with favoring' soil and climate, and the hardy, indus trious and thrifting people of this sec tion; trucking, cotton and tobacco, fruit growing and fishing industry, manr ufacturers, commerce, wholesale and retail, all of thess showing steady and rapid, in some instances amazing growth of New . Bern, and all this magnifi cent Southeast section surely have abundant reason for knowing this to- be true, now let us all pull togethe for a Bigger, Better and Greater New Bern.
