Fate shuffles life’s deck some times and deals the winning hand to the loser. That's one of the sev eral things that makes life inter esting. A divorce decree granted in Su perior court here this morning has an odd background. Several months back, perhaps a ' year ago, Lee Coleman, so-called: respected colored man, came home 1 from his work in Forest City and found Ernest Rudv;i!l, another negro, in his home with Coleman’s wife, so Coleman said. Lee then! proceeded u> kill the* man who had intruded the sancity of his home, j Brought into court later Lee wasj freed of the killing, as men are in such cases. That furnished the background and apparently needed the Coleman trouble. So, Lee Coleman, who killed a man for invading Bis home, has now been divorced by his wife who alleged si cilar actions on h>s part. “Swapped” Caskets After His Death Relatives of Dead Colored Man Trade off Pauper Coffin for Another for Burial. An old colored man rests in a better casket in a local-cemetery than he- was first placed in. Which is odd, but true. Not long since an old negro man died here. It was necessary that the county purchase the -jneral equip ment and the customary coffin of the type was bought and the re mains placed therein. About that time sons and other relatives of tlio deceased began coming in for the funeral. They were none too well pleased, it is .-aid, with the casket and immediately called up a local undertaker seeking a trade. After some talk' the exchange was made and the old fellow’s body placed in the new coffin and buried. Thieves Enter Through Floor and Make Big Clean-up of Mercantile Stock. The, store of P. M. Mauney at Stubbs, east of Shelby, was enter ed and robbed some time Thursday ' night, according to a message from i Mr. Mauney. According to Mr. Mauney the j thieves entered from a chicken lot ! in the rear and came up into the store through a trap door in the ; floor. Just what time the theft oc curred is not known. Mr. Mauney closed the store at 8 o'clock and it was after that time and prior to an early hour Friday morning, j Early this morning it was impos sible to tell just how much loot ! had been taken by the thieves. Such j was the disarrangement on the j stock and amount taken that the ! proprietor could make no definite ! check-up. However,, among the things Mr. Mauney knows to be gone are all of his pocket knivfs j ar.d flashlights, four automobile 1 tires, razors, an overcoat, gloves, overalls, and other things. One i show case was not broken into, be ; says: It had been locked and the thieves broke a screw-driver in try ; ing to prize it open. It is the second time within a | year tha* the store has been rob 1 lied, Mr. Mauney says, the other entrance being last May. Officers were notified early this morning of the robbery and are now working on the matter, but few clues were left to work upon and tracing the thieves seems to be an impossibil ity now. The firm was formerly known as Mauney and Crow, but is now owned entirely by Mr. Mauney. Lutheran Church of the Ascension.

Out on North LaFayetie street, situated in a lovely location, sits the Washington school, a new building of which Shelby should be justly proud. On Thursday morn ing at 8:45 o’clock, Armistice ex ercises by this school were most ap propriately and fitting celebrated by the young students.

The Lineal i Times says that ex actly 78 it!) pjunds of poultry have been shipped from Lincoln county during the 1925-192(5 rea son, a ('cording to a report made by the Seaboard Air Line Railway over which the shipments. were handled. As « result of these ship ments $20,019 has In or released in the county. The report issued by the railway company, now in th' hands of county agent J. Graham Morri son, covers four states: North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Virginia and with one excep tion the tonnage from Lincoln county exceeds that of any other county in the entire four states. Chesterfield county, South Caro lina has shipped 80,t*J8 pound s but the total receipts from the sales is less than Lincoln county, amounting to $19,233.71, hence the poultry shipments have brought a greater revenue to Lincoln county than to any other in the four states. The tonnage foe the entire state of North Carolina for the season amounted to 350,815 pounds and the total amount paid was $90, 110.7 3. County agent Morrison, who is responsible for the shipments in this county, is exceedingly proud of the record made here end be lieve that if this record can be made in the fir t y«-;r of the business hero, by another year even greater things can be accom plished. ivn. Morrison is completing plans now for the shipment of tur keys next Tuesday. Eskridge Honored At Bankers Meet Forrest Eskridge of First Nation al Placed on Executive Com mittee of Str te Bankers.

Girl Bride Gets A Divorce After An Odd Affair Young Couple Prevented from Liv ing Together on Honeymoon (let Divorce by Court. Alfred Blanton and his girl brill** Let ha Clary Blanton of severe 1 months ago will not live together again as man and wife unless they i should be married again after the girl atatains the proper age of 1G required by law. The divorce grant ed the young girl in court here to day ended a case considered unique in matrimonial circles over the state. Rack in September, it will be remembered, young Blanton and the Clary girl were married in I Gaffney, S. C. A short time later attorneys for the girl's mother, Mary Clary, instituted a restrain ing order and at a special hearing before Judge I. L. Webb, shortly after the marriage, a court order was issued forbidding the young man to live with his wife. The in cident was considered unusual in that a couple just married were prevented from living together at about the time honeymoons are usu ally on. The order was made be* cause the girl’s mother claimed tha. she was under age and that no consent to the marriage hail been given. Among the divorces coming up ^ in the present court was one that | read “Letha Blanton, by her nat ! ural guardian, Mary Clary, vs, Al I fred Blumon.” The girl’s mother | was the only witness to take tjhe j stand and with the *imily Bible she ! proved to the court that the girl i was born in June, 1912, and was j only 14 years of age when mar ried. She further testified that she I had given no consent whatever to j the marriage. The verdict of the jury answered all issues in the i affirmative and the marriage was declared at end. The young girl j who looked no older than the ug? given, was in the court room, but | did not take the stand, i The divorce was not contested. Gurley Not After State College Job Former Shelby" Coach Says He Is Pleased Now. Tehell'However Slated To Go T ^ Raleigh.—-Dick Gurley, mentor of | the scrappy gridsters, who re ; present Lenoir-Rhyne, is not seek ing the coaching job at State col j lege. j The authority Tor the above | statement is no other than Gur ! ley himself. He discussed the re j cent mention of his name in con i nection with reports of new faces to be seen on Riddick Field next season, and declared that all agi tation for his appointment has been done without his co-opera tion. Charlotte friends of Gurley have mentioned him as a successor to Gus Tebell, who will not return to State College next year in the capacity of head football coach, i “I am well satisfied at, Lenoir ; Rhyne, where my wife is a mem ber of the school faculty, vind any I change would be influenced by a I big increase in pay .” declared the I Lenoir-Rhyne c>v»ch. During his visit here the past week-end Gurley also set at rest certain reports that the Lenoir Rhvne eleven is made up of im ported material. Gurley assured his friends here that such is not the case. | “All the players exceiit two came j to Lenoir from a radius of 110 i miles from the college and knew j little about football until I took I them in charge,” said Gurley. “Spurlock and Cox can be termed outsiders. Spurlock came to Le noir after one year at Centre col lege. Cox is a native of Kentucky, but entered Lenoir sjjrecfc from Hickory high school,” continued the coach. Regardless of Gurley’s attitude toward the coaching problem at' State, the writer has been assur ed that a change will be made in the coaching staff before Spring. Tebell will step aside for some other head grid coach and Sammy ! Homewood will retire as freshman ! coach. Just who succeeds them has j not been hinted. Nothing definite I has been done by the athletic of-: j ficials of the college, but some un nouncement is exuected about De cember 1. The officials want to sel ect the new men so they can take the varsity squad during the reg ular spring football practice. College athletic officials are I holding Tebell responsible for the present showing of the Wolfpack j sir.ee Johnny Miller is known to j have not taken part in direct coaching but worked merely in assisting Tebell. Friends of Mil ler have insisted all the time that he is capuble of producing better results than displayed by the Techs this season, if he had her. placed in direct charge of the foot ball trair' Mode Gets $950 In Case Against City By Verdict $700 For Actual Damage To Tree*, Other Fov Trespass and Punitive Damages. Kings Mountain Case Postponed The county cotton crop, considered several weeks late, is now reaching the ginning ! figures of last year. According to the latest report only J ,850 more bales wire ginned up to Novenibet 1, last ye#r, than up to the same date this year. According to the recent re port issued by Miles H. Ware, special agent, 28,405 bales were ginned up to November 1. this year, as compared with '30,340 up to the same date last year. However, there arc” those who Hi ill contend that the crop 1 will not reach 40,000 bales this year. To do so 11,50b bales must be ginned before the end of the ginning year. Those who think this year’s crop will surpass former crops i point out that several thous and bales have been ginned ! since the first of the month j and that there is a great amount still to be ginned; In ! addition to that, they' say that 1 quite a hit of cotton this year will not be picked. As it is if 45,00 bales are I ginned this year in the county 15,000 of the number remain to be ginned. Children Give To Soldier Memorial j School Children Bring in Their Pennies and Dimes to Honor County’s War Dead. The children gave willingly, glad ly and liberally Thursday to the fund to create a memorial here to honor Cleveland county’s World war dead. Some time hack it was decided that all the school children in the county would be asked to contri bute to the fund on Armistice day as a part of their program. Al though it is impossible as yet to determine how much the children: gave yesterday, it is known that they contributed liberally and help ed in a great way to make the memorial a reality. Several schools have reported ! goodly sums, while others are for- j warding their contributions in. In ! one or two instances the exac; I amount given was made known to ! The Star. The new Washington street j school tops the list heard from so ! far by The Star, but many other j large amounts are expected to be 1 reported prior to rfonday’s Star, | which will carry practically all of ' the contributions by the schools. The Washington school reported a contribution of over $23 brought in by the children and contributed during the fine Armistice day pro gram at the school. Ross Grove was among the other schools reporting. Schools are urged to inform The Star just how much each of then-, received prior to Monday so that a list may be published in the pa per of that day, and in that con nection The Star wnfies to thank all of the schools for their work in* behalf of the memorial. Several individuals also contri buted to the fund during the day and their names will be published in acorn plete list of contributors next week. Among the individuals giving was R. P. Weathers, who gave S10—and that was not Mr. Weather’s only gift to his country, for he gave a son, Fred, whose name is recorded on the present roll and will be inscribed on the new memorial. , Militia Honors Kings Mt. Soldier A squad of ten men from Com pany K. of Shelby in charge of Sergt. Claude Connor, went to Kings Mountain on Armistice day to do honor to Soldier Huffstetler who died in China September 5 His body was brought to his home at Kings Mountain for interment with American legion honors and the local squad of soldiers fired a volley and sounded taps over his remains. Details of the death of Soldier Hufstetler appeared in The Star some weeks ago in a Kings Mountain dispatch. After the article below was written about the Mode suit the verdict of the court was changed from $1,250 to $950 damages. A plea was made to Judge Harwood this morning by City Attorney O. M. Mull asking that the jury's verdict of $1,250 damages be set aside. The verdict was not set aside by the jurist, but he did lessen the damages $500 by setting aside the two issues of puni tive damage, one calling for $200 and the other for $100. It :■ is understood that the revised verdict will be satisfactory to both parties in the suit. The civil suit that perhaps die more interest than any other op the calendar of the present court term was disposed of here yester day when a jury returned a verdict awarding total damages of SI,251 to R. L. Mode in his suit agains the Town of Shelby. The suit was warmly contests in the court room and discus considerably about town. Argu ments to the jury was complef Wednesday, but the verdict w not returned until Thursday more ing. The total damages came und four heads, the largest individu item being $700. The first award was $100 f punitive damages in the trespa of November, 1925, no actual dam ages being given on that count $260 actual damaages were give* for the second outlined trespass o January 28, 1920, wiih $700 foi damage to the trees cut down, a $200 for punitive damages in tl case, the total,being $1,250. A suit brought against the To* of Kings Mountain by the &Ic( heirs was considered the sect; big feature of the civil calend but this case, it is understood been postponed until the r_, term of court. Quite a number Kings Mountain folks were awaiting the trial and it wot have likely drawn many more it been heard at this term. The suit was that in which McGills ask a considerable amot of damages for the alleged lo tion of a septic tank. The Superior court term for fall here adjourned this morni* with a final round-up of cases the eivil calendar. During the morning there wc, one or two special hearing and or or two divorces taken up, follov ing which the court adjourn, court officials leaving during tl day for their homest Dog-Fall Verdict. In the mandamus proceedir _ whereby Attorneys Peyton Mr Swain and C. B. McBrayer soug to compel the city to return won borrowed temuorarilv from th street department to complete ti water station, there was a dog-Jfi before Judge Harwood this morn ing. The judge signed an ordc compelling the city to use the fu amount of the street improvemen bond money for, streets but wout not designate when the mono; should be used or where it shoul be used, failing to compel the cit to pave certain sweets which th plaintiffs were contending fot The city only suspended the strce work until the additional wate works bonds are issued, order fe which has already been made. It 1 and has been the plan and purpos of the city to follow the law whic says funds cannot be diverted per manently, the diversion in thi case being only temporary in or dev to meet an emergency arisin because of the water shortage. Th judge's order following the nianda nuis proceedings does not alter th plan of the city which will resutMj street paving work in the sprifM and spend the entire $ll’r.,00 street improvement issue on street and sidewalks.
