Old Money Worth
Not a Continental
Her. Ed Thompson Produces $40
BUI Like That Of Mr.
Poole.
Paper money Issued by the Con
tinental States of North America in
1779, redeemable in Spanish milled
gold or sUver dollars is "not worth
a Continental,” says Rev. Ed Thomp
eon, of Shelby. Mr. Thompson is a
loyal Southerner and one of the best
versed men In history in Shelby
Seeing an article in Monday’s Star
telling of a $30 bill owned by Mr.
J. H. Poole of No. 10 Township, Mr.
Thompson brought in one for $40.
The bill is one of the same issue as
that of Mr. Poole and is In a fine
state of preservation, but these bUls
are not worth a continental.
This was money issued to finance
the war for independence from
Oreat Britain. It was called in for
redemption and all that was not re
deemed was thereafter worthless. It
was continental money, hence the
expression "not worth a continent
al,” an expression that is used so
often today.

the new school building movement
the high school students recently
held an open forum meeting, with
Charles Switzer presiding, at which
they discussed prospects for the
new school. Supt. B. L. Smith spoke
to the student gathering and cau
tioned them against showing too
much zeal for the building, and in
dicated a number of things to
avoid lest the cause be hindered.
The gathering, however, expressed
much hope for the building, stud
ents declaring that they believed
their parents were convinced that
since Shelby soon must have a new
high school building the present
would be a good time for construc
tion in that a building could be
erected now at a saving of 20 to 25
percent and at tf»e same time give
employment to labor and market to
merchants and building supply
firms.
The pupils who live within the
district were asked to maron a
ballot furnished, them the reaction
of their parents to a proposed bond
Issue for the new building. They
were urged to Indicate the attitude

Officer Acquitted
On Charge Of Black
Jacking A Prisoner
Jury Gives Verdict of "Not Guilty”
In Case Against Deputy
Bob Kendrick.
In county court yesterday a jury
of six citizens returned a verdict of
not guilty in a case wherein Dep
uty Bob Kendrick was charged wijh
hitting a prisoner with a blackjack.
Last Saturday night, according to
the evidence Deputy Sheriff Bob
Kendrick arrested Walter Drumm,
of the South Shelby section, who
was said to have been drinking.
When he reached the Jail with him
Deputy Kendrick stated that his
prisoner cursed him, using a vile
epithet He then, he said, shoved
the prisoner back and his head
struck the door. The prisoner's
charge was that the deputy struck
him with his blackjack.
Policeman Rufus Sparks and Paul
Stamey, of the city force, were at
the jail at the time of the occur
rence and both testified that a
blackjack was not used that the
blow on the head was when he fell
against the door. The Jury returned
with the not guilty verdict just a
few minutes after getting the case.
Attorney B. E. Williams assisted
Solicitor P. c. Gardner in the pros
ecution, and Attorneys B. T. Falls
and W. S. Beam defended the offi
cer.
May Be Suspended.
Sheriff Irvin M. Allen stated to
day that he was considering the
suspension of the deputy for some
time as he, the sheriff, meant for
all prisoners to be properly treated
when in the custody of his officers,
and that he warfted all of his offi
cers to know It.
For Defense Only.
In anouncing the suspension
Sheriff Allen said “My view of an
officer of the law is that his pistol
and blackjack are to be used only
in the defense of his life and the
protection of his body. In this in
stance the deputy was acquitted but
I consider the suspension of the Of
ficer for an indefinite period as the
proper method to emphasize my be
lief that a prisoner must and will
be properly treated when in thfc
custody of any officer under me ”

Find That “Jamaica Ginger” Causing Paralysis Is
Made Of Crude Carbolic Acid, Creosote, Alcohol
Washington.—A drink of crude
carbolic acid or creasote and alco
hol flavored with ginger and sold
by unscrupulous bootleggers as Ja
maica ginger, was said by Prohibi
tion Commissioner Doran to be the
concoction that had caused hun
dreds of cases of paralysis in sou
thern and southwestern states.
The commissiomr made his an
nouncement after prohibition bu
reau chemists had tested more than
a hundred samples of “jamaica gin
ger" collected in localities where
cases of paralysis have been report
ed. He said that while it was hard
to understand how any one of the
ingredients in the mixture alone
could have caused the paralysis, the
combination had resulted in quick
paralysis to those who had used it
as a beverage.
Tests made by the bureau chem
ists, the commissioner said, showed
that three-fourths to seven-eighths
oi the solid, contents of the drink
had been either creasote or carbolic
acid and that the alcoholic content
was as high as 80 or 90 per cent.
"Some bootlegger who wanted to
rich quick devised the mixture and
Distributed it widely in the south
ern and southwestern states, where
biting drinks have always been a
favorite,” Doran said. "We have
traced the stuff to three local points
two of which are in Cincinnati and
St, Louis and we expect to follow
the trail until we have the perpe
trators under arrest.
“The mixture Is little better than
‘sheep dip’ used to disinfect flocks
of sheep.”
While Commissioner Doran was
plaining the result of the chemical
tests, he held up the Index finger if
the right hand. The nail and tip
was discolored to a dark brown and
smelled of carbolic acid. *
The commissioner explained '•hat
he had placed the tip of his finger
In some of the “Jamaica ginger'’
sent here to be tested. Three wash
ings he said, had failed to take of'
the stahi or smell.
“And that,” be added, "is what
some persons are drinking as an in
toxicating beverage.”

Annual Clash Here
On Saturday, Highs
Play Charlotte Team
Game Which Each Year Draws Most
Baseball Interest Here Comes
This Week.
Shelby* annual baseball classic—
the contest between the high school
teams of Charlotte and Shelby—in
which there Is rivalry of long stand
ing will be played here Friday aft
ernoon.
In years gone by the contest be
tween the two schools, due to a
rivalry also in football, has been a
nip-and-tuck affair. For several
years a little portsider. Wood, had
the number of the Shelby High
sluggers, but last year the Casey
Morris combination, which won the
title, shook the Wood jinx and
knocked the youngster from the
mound.
Hamrick And Gadd.
On Friday the Charlotte outlit
will likely send Tom Oadd, one of
the state's best high school pitchers,
against the locals, having heard that
the Morris team this year does not
have the slugging ability of the 192b
champion. Coach Morris will likely
counter by sending Sherrill Ham
tick on the hillock for Shelby. Ham
rick when in winning form only asks
his teammates to get a couple of
runs around the basepaths. At Gas
tonia against the heavy-hitting
team this year he not only was
stingy with his hits and runs out
drove in a run and scored two him
self. With Hamrick going at his
1929 pace the Charlotte hitters will
have a tough task In securing
enough runs to win a game even if
Mr. Gadd is also putting a silencer
on the local willows.
Other than the pitcher and catch
er Charlotte should have the best
prospects of victory as the Char
lotte team is a veteran outfit
while Shelby’s hopes this year are
pinned on a number of untried rook
ies.
On Saturday the highs play a re
turn game with Bolling Springs col
lege at Boiling Springs.
