Out of the five districts in which con gressional. elections were held, the Democrats carried three and the Republicans one. Af ter the results had been tabu lated, this gave the Democrats a majority of two in the next 'Congress, the totals standing as follows: Democrats, 216; Re miblirans, 214. The rock-rfb t e:| Repu1 lican Eighth Michi gan district was captured by the Democrats. Truly Tuesday was a Democratic day, in those places when* the people were ■ liven an opportunity to express themselves at the ballot box. J.

'4—Flank ed li'y live attorneys, Bishop James Cannon, Jr., sal grasp ing a crutch in criminal court today, and challenged the con stitutionality of the federal law .he is charged with violating in the l!>28 presidential campaign. The churchman listened at tentively from the front row of the court room as Judge James Proctor set Friday, November 20—a week before the bishop's birthday—-for argument on his demurrer to a District of Co lumbia Supreme court indict ment alleging failure to report campaign contributions. A few minutes earlier, the southern Methodist prelate, surrounded by parishioners, signed a $1,000 bond for his ap pearance and saw Miss Ada L. Burroughs of Richmond, Va., treasurer of his anti-Smith Democrats’ committee, do like wise. His bond was immedi ately endorsed by nine bhnds nien, led by Dr. William A. Shelton, pastor of the Mount Vernon Methodist Episcopal church, south, who was recent ly acquitted in a church trial ; on charges brought by a form er secretary. The bondsmen followed the bishop into the court room and were grouped in the rear during the brief proceeding. < Robert H, McNeil, chief de fense counsel, presented the demurrer contending the indict ment was “bad in substance” because the act on which it is based attempts to regulate the election of presidential elec tors. These electors, it is said, are state officers and not sub ject to federal regulation. MRS.

The navy’s newest scout, cruiser achieved its record with ease as it soared into th,s- ska s , over the pine woods with twice j the human load it carried on its long inspection of the east ern seaboard yesterday. The former record for per sons carried was held by the , heavier-than-air DO-X, which j carried 169 persons for an hour on a test flight over Lake Con stance three years ago. We desire to thank those kind friends and neighbors who were so considerate during the illness and death of oirr moth er, Mrs. Sallie A.

Ing Little Orphan An nie- Riley, Helen Carter, Son.tr-- Help 1* On. seventh gradei .. - b Mr. Mason held his audience spell bound by drawing a very striking comparison between the high school students and a ■freight train. There are two classes of. students, just as • there are. two parts , of a trtiin, t he engine, and the box cars. The engine* are those who lead. The box cars are those who must be led. Mr. Mason gave'to the students as a re quisite for being an engine the motto: “Without being told.” He said: “if .you can get up in the morning, come to your meals on time, go to school on time, and go to bed on tirpe without being told, you are well on the way to being an engine.” j Mr. Mason also called the stu ] dent’s attention to the fact that -j ' it is impossible to change* an ■ engine or .box car after the jna : terial in ’the. shop has been made into one or the other. He ti.eu ,-r, ante rated the advantag es ••■•.£. being an engine.

Mr. Mason concluded his talk with four questions which h" said would be more important t, pass than any oth er college entrance examina tion a student might take. Those- question.- were:“Are you able to- go to bed and get up on tittle A i; It out .being told V A re you able to. go "tf by yourself and study without being told? Are you able to tase-an examin ation without, cheating,? Are you aide to carry loose change ill your prickets without spend ing it’. ’ After'., few words of adrrio'nitiori and timely . advice, A!

In.The Hands of Goblins Saturday night was a great time for the youngsters of Mad ison had a great time. They were regaled in all kinds of lu dicrous costumes and great crowds of them • infested ali sections of the town. The pranks'they played were many, and some of them unique, but it affords us pleasure to say that none of these pranks were vicious—all harmless. This speaks well for the youngsters and we congratulate them on their good behavior. Arthur Byrd, one of Harnett’s lide-atffiome farmers, has made 1,400 gallons of sorghum syrup for himself and neighbors.
