April 22.—Hold fart to ibis bed by ape and disease while I’.he waters rose slowly and inex ror.bly, ('. F. Sr-agraves, former county treasurer and one of Ashe county’s most prominent citizens W£ s drowned when the worst flood in this section since 191d swept through his home. Mis. Scagraver was also on the lower floor of their home when the waters rushed in,( and was only j saved from dying with her husband ! by a hired man who rushed in and i carried her to the upper story as the yellow waves filled the room. The tragedy was the climax of floods which have swept the Grassy j Greek and Holton sections through out the week. Both Grassy creek and Holton creek overflowed their banks and waters reached record I breaking heights in many sections of the county. Many buildings were washed away in the inundations of the Grn sy Creek sec" ion, ninny homes have been flooded and the losses in livestock and other property is expected to run into the thousands of dollars. Tonight the waters which have held sway since Monday night were receding, although many portions of the county are still under water. Withersoaon Write* Of Hatcher's Race (E. E. Witherspoon in Lexington Dispatch.) A. Hatcher Webb takes honest advertising space in the Cleve land Star to tell the folks of Shelby, where he is running for a municipal office, that he is no liar. Consequently he doesn’t promise to reform the whole city, and much as he would like to seo it done he won’t reduce taxes if to do so means a sacrifice of public benefit. Mr. Webb says that he is under no obligations to any body but his mother and that be tween them they have enough to get along [on very comfortably, thank you, or words to that effect. Everybody who has spent an hour in Shelby during the past-~. oh, never mind how long, for Hatcher might decide to marry yet—knows the resounding laugh of Hatcher Webb that booms like a young cannon across the court square, or else they didn’t find out much about Shelby. But after reading Hatcher’s ori ( ginal ad we wonder what in thun der he is running for. He just did not say. However, there is little doubt! [that all the Shelby folks know anyhow, and the rest of us are not voting. NOW GET ALUMINUM FROM ANY CLAYBANK --- 1 fTWHntemational News Scrvide.) Pittsbuarg.—Aluminum, once re 1 garded as one of the costlier metals, can now be produced from almost any claybank, according to H. V. Churchill, chief chemist of the Aluminum company of Amer ica. Describing the progress of the aluminum industry, Churchill re called that the first aluminum produced in Pittsburg cost $30 a pound. It was considered so val uable that the supply was locked in a safe at night. ‘Aluminum now is produced at, the rate of approximately 400, 000.000 rounds annually,’* he de- I dared. “The supply of clay used j in its manufac ture is almost inex- ; haustible.” STUDY CAUSE OF ANEMIA -- AT SIMPSON INSTITUTE j ——— i (By .International New* Servian.) I Ann Arbor, Mich.—A detailed j study of the causes and cure of ; pernicious anemia, which Dr. Ra-1 pheal Isaacs says affects few! brunettes, will be undertaken at t the Simpson Memorial Institute, | the $50,000 foundation created : through the gift of Catherine Me- i Donald Simpson of Detroit. Dr. Isaacs, director of the new ! institute, declared the disease is j invariably found among blue-eyed blondes. ! Snyder Crime One Of Most Apalling Concord Times. Mrs. Ruih Snyder, who is joint- i ]y charged with Henry Judd Gray for the murder of her husband, ■will seek freedom on the plea that she was forced to take part in the murder plot. No sooner was her husband dead and the crime de tected than Mrs. Snyder turned on her former lover, putting all of the blame on him and asking the public not to censure her until a!! the facts were known. Gray at the same time seems to have realized that he didn’t love Mrs. Snyder so much after all. He called her names, told the police she had planned to poison her husband otherwise sought to put the blame on the woman. They are to be tried jointly and that seems well and good. So far as the public can learn one had about as much to do with the mur der as the other. Either could have prevented i. had the desire to escape punishment been as strong before the slaying as it was later. Gray cannot escape his part and Mrs. Snyder should not escape. Was she forced to take part in the plot? That will be the biggest question for the jury. We can’t believe that any woman can be forced to kill her husband through fear of bodily harm. That is 'any woman who really wants to pre vent such a crime. Detectives called in the case de veloped these facts: That in their excitement ai d desire 10 ho with or.e another Mrs. Snyder and Gray went to bed to gether immediately after the crime and that they forgot to turn down the cover on Mrs. Sny der’s bed. although she protested at the time that she was in the To date our April series has been one of our best.

Mrs. Synder usually occupied. That when detectives arrived Mrs. Snyder, garbed in only a single silk “underthing” arose from her bed and dressed belo.c the detectives. Can this woman make a jury be lieve that she was forced to kill her husband by a man with whom she went to bed later? It looks like a cold-blooded proposition from here and both should pay dearly for the crime. New Charlotte Paper. Charlotte,—(INS.)—It was lc.trn ed here todav that Morris A. Bealle former Washington correspondent, will launch a new newspaper in Chailotte soon. The publication will be a ‘semi labor” sheet, and is designed to cover both the Carolinas. The first issue- is expected to appear late this month, it was said. James Treshon, of Chicago, was convicted of beating his wife and then made her pay his fine. Circus Parade Doomed as Automobiles Crowd Elephants Off Big City Streets New Haven Still Hunts Pirate Fold (By-International Nr w.s Service.) Nev.- Haven.—Holey in the ear.li continue to appeav in Money Is land, jjst outside of New Haven, where rumor had it that Captain Kidd once buried his treasure. Youngsters are the eHef diggers, it is believed, but no one appears certain as to how they get out to the island. New Haven’s marine life has dwindled to coal barges and tank ers, a few freighters bearing au tomobile parts from a plant on the Jersey meadows, and supplies for chain stores whose warehouses are down the harbor. But pirates still exist, as they di,ti in Captain Kidd’s and New Haven has a marine police pre cinct watching for the pirates and for rum runners who persists in poking their craft into the har bor. .*;.«* (By International New- s, ,-, • 1 1V • (?(?,) Peru, Ind—That hallow,-d inM tution, Uki circus parade, wii|V' only a memory within a lew v according to Rex de Russelli] ufr’ cial of the Hagenbeck-Walk, circus, which wintered here.
