THE COWGIRLS ARE AN 1MPQHTANT FACTOR THOSE WITH 101 WILD WEST SHOW ARE THE VERY BEST 1 he cowgirls constitute a very im portant part of Miller Bros. & Arling ton's 101 Ranch Wild West Show, which this city will see next Monday, Oct. 5 There are ' said to be nearly fifty of those natty, healthy, vigorous-looking girls, and they vie with the cowpunch.- ers in performing daring and neck-risk tng feats on Indian ponies and out law" horses. They are a picturesque ,ot, too, and even the Indians in their war paint and feathers do not attract any more admiring" attention. One of the most interesting features of the performance made so, un doubtedly, by its strenuousness and evident danger is the broncho-busting. The girls do not hesitate to ride the wildest horses, and it is seldom that any pne ot them is thrown. 11 an accident occurs It is rarely serious, for the girls are said to betray a remarkable facility in getting away from the hoofs of the horses when they Involuntarily take a "header." Idgie Lindsay, a little cowgirl from Oklahoma, is one of the favorites -with 101 Ranch audiences, but Bessie Herberg, Beatrice Brosseau, Martha Allen, the Parry Twins, Blanche McGuaghey, the cowgirl who throws the steer, and others among the tow- girls come in for a great deal of admir ing attention because of their skill and daring in handling spirited horses. Among the cowgirls are a, number who are as skillful in throwing the lariat as the cowpunchers, and the two best shots with the show are girls. Edith Tantlinger is an Oklahoma product and Princess Wenona is a Sioux. Both have won world's medals for crack shooting. In the group of Indian women are several expert riders. . Little Sunshine, a Mohican girl, who has spent most of her life among the Sioux, is exception ally clever in handling wild mustangs. The girls with the J01 Ranch show are credited with contributing greatly to its success, for in. addition to their ability they give a grateful feminine touch to the exhibition. In conjunc tion with the cowboys 'the Indians, scouts, ' Mexicans and Cossacks they give a performance that' according to report, is without a' dull moment from start to finish.' ; All the 1 Wild West celebrities will be seen in the parade thayakes place at 10 30 in the monring. .

The former train leaves Goldsboro at 10 20 p. tn. and goes to Chocowinity where it connects with the train entoute from Norfolk to Raleigh. Train number 16 lsMthe one which leaves Chocowinity after the arrival of the train from Norfolk and makes the run to Golik- boro. The utter groundlessness of this rumor wad demonstrated yesterday when local officials of the Nortolk Sottthftrifc staed. that .there. had been no talk of this action in the main office and in fact that the Goldsboro and Beau fort and the Raleigh division of the Norfolk Southern were in better shape than any other sections of the read and that a number of improvements were contemplated along these two routes. The operating expenses of the Norfolk Southern are far smaller than those of some of the larger roads and, naturally, ' they are not as hard hit by the present j money scarcity as the larger roads and I their business affairs are In excellent shape. Superintendent Leard was In I the city yesterday and while in conver- satlon with the local officials he gave out the statement that the officials of the road are viewing the situation very optimistically and are going right ahead with their plans for enlarging and im- j proving their service.

In any con flict between nations which have nav ies the all important consideration is to secure, if possible, immediate con trol of the sea and the power which possesses the superior navy is usually able to do this. In such case the navy of the weaker power takes refuge in some deep and well-defended harbor. where I seeks to wear oat its enemv by fighting it in detachments and in other ways wearing down its strength After this weaker power, having thus taken refuge in a al'e harbor can maneu ver its shij-.-s t'-.ro in!;.nd channels to other exits it enjoys .1 ;rejt advantage.

The whole nature of a war would be greatly affected by available inland canals. "Even in times of peace ihe canal Is a very important factor to the navy ami lends itself to preparation lor national security Large quanti ties of heavy materials are constantly required by the government for its navy yeard." A DULL DAY But Few Cases In Police Court Yesterday. Yesterday was another dull day in Police Court, there being only three cases on the docket. Willie Simmons, Lonnle and Wll'le George, all colored, were arrainged before the Mayor charged with throwing brick bats at two other colored boys. Willie Sim mons was taxed with the cost in the case against him, and the cost was divided between the George boys. All three of the defendants were mere boys, and the father of the George boys, who is a respectable looking col ored man, was on hand to pay the ccst for his children. When he paid Captain Bryan the cost which was two dollars and thirty-five cents, he remarked "I will pay the cost now and finish up the case with the boys when I get home with them." And judging from his manner the boys will hardly be able to throw any more brick bats real soon. MASS MEETING TODAY Carteret Politicians Are to Gather In Session. Beaufort, Sept 25.
