GIN RASED OBJE Tn nnmimn ncnni: tu mutfuiu uniuL ARSHAL BELLAMY IS BLAMED FOR REMOVAL BY PEOPLE OF THE CAPITAL CITY. COGENT REASONS ARE GIVEN Telegrams of Compaint Are Sent to the Two Senators and to Mr. Pou, . Representative From District Raleigh. Announcement here that the office of the United States marshal will be removed to Wilmington was coupled with the explanation that it was done at the request of Marshal George H. Bellamy. The marshal's home is In Brunswick county, near Wilmington. Telegrams were sent to Attorney General Palmer, to Senators Overman -and Simmons and to Edward W. Pou. representative in Washington for the fourth congressional distlct, asking why the change. . There seemed no tnore'reason why this office should be moved than the revenue office. Mayor T. B. Eldridge will also take the mat ter up and there may be a move to get the chamber of commerce to pro test against the change. Mr. Pou, responding to the telegram sent him, said: "Marshal Bellamy filed request to be allowed to remove office to Wil mington. Among reasons assigned were lack of space and congestion of activities of internal revenue service at Raleigh. I hear the attorney gen eral has permitted removal for a six month period. There is a rumor which I have not been able to con firm from any official source that the removal to Wilmington was permitted In view of contemplated removal to ttaieign or oinr revenue oniciais. 'Will advise further If obtain definite information." Governor Is Much Incensed. . , The whole power of the state will be extended to apprehend the lynch era of Powell Green, in Franklinton declared Governor T. W. Bickett. The lynching took place In Governor Bickett's home county and is the sec ond within the year in that county. "Such deeds put to open shame our boasted white civilization and make the name of southern chivalry a by word and a reproach. It Is true that the crime committed was an atrocious one, for he shot down without provo cation one of the best citizens of Franklin ton. . This naturally aroused great indignation but it affords no semblance of excuse for a mob tak ing the law; into its own hands. 'The inejnhers of that mob crucified the elementary principles of justice for which white men have fought and bled and died through a. thousand years. They have assaulted the very citadel of our civilization and all the power of the state will be exerted to apprehend them and make them suf fer the full penalty of the law." Funeral of General Cox. Richmond, Va. (Special). Funeral services for Gen. William Ruff in Cox, distinguished Confederate veteran and former North Carolina statesman, who died here was conducted in Christ Episcopal church, Raleigh, N.

Kinston The' determination of, Rev. W. Marshall Craig, pastor of the First Baptist church here, to remain with his "little flock" in the face of a call from one of 'the "strongest congrega tions in the region of Richmond, is regarded as Kinston's principal cause for congratulation. "The entire com munity is pleased," a statement not In the least far-fetched, i ,. "It is a fine opportunity that is pre sented," Mr. Craig told . his congrega tion. "I have been tendered a charge with a church enrollment of 1,100 or more, and a Sunday school with more than 1,000 members."

Maiia of Braid gement iii Suits Braid and buttons have been the ac customed decorations for suits for so long ar time that we take them as a matter of course and are not surprised to find them among any season's pro ductions. Their popularity ebbs and flows; occasionally there is a season when, they almost disappear and then comes a time when there is no getting away from them. They have been at the ebb for the past two seasons sparingly but most cleverly used In In genious ways that are surprisingly novel. Like the 'return of old friends after an absepce, braid and bone buttons are welcome, especially when we discover them so smart and orig inal in application. V The.suit at the right has a, few but tons ui'd a little braid, but these are used with consummate taste. The braid appears in a lattice-work ap plique on the front and back of the coat, which is a yague-fltting belted model, conservative and graceful. But tons are set along the top of the pock ets and on the narrow belt at the back. It is, a suit for any clime or any sea son. The suit at the left .differs only by having more buttons set In two long rows at the back, with bands of, braid joining them. They form a x narrow panel that is turned under. In most un expected fashion, at the bottom. It s little, unusual touches !of this kind that give clothes distinction. Designers who determined to use braid evidently made up their minds tn think up new - ways of applying iL These" are only two of several braid trimmed models that have compelled admiration 'for their originality and Ingenuity. j - WHITE GOODS SALE Two Men Shot In Abdomen. Goldsboro. J., W. Lucas, of La grange, son of the chief of police of that town, and J. E.

The multitude ran together to see this wonderful thing. There was no question as $o the genuineness of the miracle, fq this man was a fa miliar figure ffy many years. This miracle may befjregarded as a parable setting forth thwork of the church In the world. (l. The helpless beggar had to be .carrSd to the temple, gate.

Taking him by the hand shot? the manner of the unnstian s reip4i II. Peter Witrtlsslng of Jesus Christ Before the Multitude (w. 12-26). ihls mlraele focused the attention of the people u2on Peter and John. Peter Immediatelj turned their atten tion from himself to Christ. This Is most unlike the.1 claimants to divine power today, llisolaiming power of hlsown, he seized the opportunity to preach Christ ttf'i the people who had assembled. He t5ld them It was faith In Jesus Christ, ivhom the God of their iatners had glorfled, whom they had deliberately delivered up and denied before Pilate wllen he desired to set mm tree, and th( t they desired a mur derer to bv .grafted freedom instead. He showed that ke disciples were also witnesses that Qlod had raised Jesus from the dead, ad charged home upon ?them their awfu guilt; for they had denied the holy -jine and the just, and chosen Barabbas a. murderer. Instead of Christ, and killed the Prince of Life,. He appealed to t$em to repent (v. 19), telling them thai they had committed tws awful crlmt In Ignorance, God would pardon thIr sin if they would repent. He assured them that Israel would yet enjofp refreshing - seasons from the Lord, y-Jien God should send Jesus Christ bacJ to earth to consum mate tne work ow redemption.

Styles change less In undermuslins than in other apparel, although there ere usually new and Interesting de velopments on trial' In the January sales. . The limit- of . sheerness has been reached and there Is a ' reaction away from it and away from silks. They have become too popular and too showy to suit the fastidious.
