FEBRUARY 2. 1909.No. 31 Threw Rocks Into The Train. Statesville Landmark. The Taylorsville train was rocked at Hiddenite Thursday night about 9 o’clock. Fortunately no one was hurt, but Capt. Tom Rowland and a number of passengers had narrow escapes. Just as the train was leav­ ing Hiddenite station for Taylors­ ville the sound of missiles striking the top and sides of the coaches was heard and then two heavy rocks, as big as a man’s fist, crashed through the windows into the train, one en­ tering each of the two coaches. A number of passengers and Conduc­ tor Rowland were struck by pieces of the shattered glass, but no one was struck by the rocks. A lady and a child had just left a seat in which one of the rocks fell. When it was realized that the train was being rocked the air brake was applied and the train stopped promptly. The crew and a number of passengers hurried back to the point where the trouble occurred and with the aid of persons who were at the station made a hurried search for the person or persons who had thrown the rocks, but no one was found. The train had hardly resumed its journey, however, when three young men of the Hiddenite section, who had aided in the search saw a man come from behind a pile of crossties near the track and fol­ low the train. The young men had no weapons and were afraid to fol­ low the man, whom tney felt sure was guilt of the malicious act. They reasoned that if he was mean enough to rock a train he was mean enough to shoot them should they attempt to capture him, in case he had some­ thing to shoot with. Throwingrocks into a train, or shooting into a train, is so utterly wanton and malicious that no pun­ ishment for such an act could hard­ ly be too severe. It is greatly to be hoped that the guilty party in this case will be found and punished as he deserves. Everything Bnt Money. The editor of the Trevorton, Penn. Timesseemsto be plentifully sup­ plied with everything for the win­ ter except money. In a recent edi­ torial he said: “We have taken wood, potatoes, corn, eggs, butter, onions, cabbage, chickens, stone, lumber, labor, sand, calico, sauer­ kraut, second hand clothing, coon skins, and bug juice, scrap iron, shoe pegs; rawhibes, chinquepins, tanbark, dogs, sorghum, seed, jar- ware and wheat straw on subscrip- scription, and now a roan wants to know if we would send the paper for six months for a large owl. We have no precedent for refusing, and if we can find a man who is out of an owl and wants one, we’ll do it. More About Prohibition. Yadkinville Ripple.

At times, usually after a rain or damp spell, he sees lights ap­ pear—shoot up out of the ground, so | to speak. They are oval and about j the size of a candle and go into the air 40 or 50 feet. Mr. Cloer has been living there about 50 years and has frequently seen the lights. Theman he bought the farn from apprised him of the srange phenomenon and warned him not to be afraid. Some one told Mr. Cloer once that these lights were evidence gold and Mr. Cloer believed it and made unsuc­ cessful efforts to find the gold. All efforts to find out just what these lights are have failed and the matter will now be submitted to Prof. “LaF.” Barringer for solution. —Statesville Landmark. Cooper Jury Kot Yet Complete. Nashville, Tenn., Jan 26.—When] the second venire of 500 talesmen! was exhausted today without th completion of the jury to try Col.| Duncan Cooper, Robin Cooper aiu John D. Sharp for the slaying o: former Senator Edwin W. Carmack, JudgeHartannonnced that he would] devote tomorrow to the hearing o: charges against Jurors Leigh and] Jackson. Meantime he drew anoth-| er venire of 500 names and the slier, iff is summoning them for servici at 9 a. m. Friday. Just before court adjourned thi: af temo.on the State filed charges a- gainst Juror H. C. Jackson, claim­ ing that he was incompetent because! he was a habitual drunkard. The State has been trying since last week to get a hearing on the charges against Juror J. S. Leigh and its witnesses were summoned to appear tomorrow, when both cases will be gone into. Therearenow nine men in the box with charges against two of them. The failure of counsel to complete the jury from the first thousand talesmen together with the fact that the number already select­ ed may be reduced by the conrt makes it extremely improbable that the twelve men will be sworn in be­ fore some time next week. Another Great Cotton Mill. Durham, Jan. 26.—Authoritative announcement is made tonight that the Erwin Cotton Mills Company, of West Durham, at its regular stock­ holders’ and directors’ meetings yes­ terday in its home offices, decided to build a new 50,000 spindle mill on gray goods, about half the product to go into goods for converting pur­ poses and the remainder into wide sheetings. This mill, as are all of this company’s wonderful pieces of textile construction, is to be of most modern and improved construction equipment. Itslocation will be at WestDurham or at Duke. Plans will be immediately got out and the management expect to have it in operation within a year. , ^ Arrested in Yadkin County.

A gentleman who called at this of­ fice yesterday reported an incident which he thinks rather mysterious. He says that on Tuesday morning he was r passenger on eastbound pas­ senger train No. 21; that when he boarded the train at Marion a well dressed gentleman whose name he was not able to learn, and apparent­ ly a stranger in Marion, asked him if he would kindly assist him in put­ ting on his bagge. Our friend said he consented and was handed a large shirt box that appeared to contain clo shing, but when he heard some­ thing move about in the box he made an investigation and was sur­ prised to find an infant snugly wrap­ ped in a blanket. The stranger said that the child was given him at Ma- rio.i, that it was two months old, and he was taking it to his home in South Carolina. He claimed that he knew nothing about the child’s mother and refused to give his own name. Croup positively stopped in 20 minutes, with Dr. Shoop’s Croup Re­ medy.

You will be told w hether you can be cured or not. If your case is curable they will pu t you under treatm ent im m ediately; if incurable, they will give you such advice as may prolong your life. T heir treatm ent always gives quick re’icf, and ultim ately posi­ tively cures. Being prepared to cope with each individual case, th e human system is thoroly cleansed of the disease in a natural and direct m anner, and im prove­ m ent Is noticed and felt a t once. Even the w orse cases, som e th a t have been given up as hopeless by the local physi­ cians, are treated w ithout any inconve­ nience to the patient or the pursuing of his or her daily occupation. If you are improving under your Family physician, do not come and take up thvir valuable tim e, as they m ust absolutely refuse to tre at any one who Is under the care of th e local physician. They wish, besides, to give each visitor plenty of tim e^and th eir undivided attention, but they^can not listen to long stories not pertaining to your troubte. They have dis­carded the old m ethods and rem edies used for ages by the medical world, and which It would be foily and useless to de­pend upon any longer, for they are not known to cure, as thousands die depend­ ing on them for relief. The following list of dseases only are taken for treatm ent: Diseases of the N er­ vous system , "Heart, Stom ach, Liver, K id­ neys, Lungs, C atarrh (Purulent or dry), consumption In th e first stages. Epilepsy, fits, or falling sickness, deafness, diseases of W omen, tum or, Pseudo-Cancers, piles, those of-a chronic nature only. They treat deafness by an entirely new m ethod, and hearing In m any cases Is restored a t the Office In a few m inutes. C atarrh In all its varied forms* like other diseases If once taken, under treatm ent, Is cured perm a­ nently to rem ain so and never to return. It m atters not whom you have seen or w ith whom you have treated, do not fail to call, as a visit and exam ination wiil cost you nothing, and may restore you to health, on^even save and a t teast prolong your Hfe“ as thousands of persons will testify by authentic and unassailabfe tes* tim onials from all p arts of the Country.

As Editor and Proprietor of the CorrieviDe Bee, we have just read President Roosevelt’s message. We would have read this message be­ fore, but we didn’t know it was out yet and wouldn't of knowed it for some time to come, we presume, if Eph Higgins, our accomodating P. M., hadn’t give us a sample copy of a city paper which he received some time since, and which remained in the P. 0. uncalled for, and which Eph finally opened and read and then passed on to us. It is not too late, however, for the Bee to take official recognition of the President’s message, which we have read through very careful, and, parts of which nearly give us , headache to understand. It will, Igabably be a surprise to readers of ^Bee to learn that President •elt has wrote this message fiownst to them, but that’s -this world is full of sur-j Mrs. Samantha Deevers is still on; the sick list as usual. If for any reason we should fail to mention Samantha's name in any issue of the Bee, you will know it is omitted by mistake and that no offense to Sa­ mantha is meant. If in the fuchure the time should come when ,Saman­ tha wouldn’t be on the sick list, we would make especial mention of it in the Bee. Ask Yourself the Question.

In sickness, if a certam hidden nerve goes wrong, then the organ tnat this nerve controls will also sure­ ly fail. It may be a Stomach nerve, or it may have given strength and support to the Heart or Kidneys. It was Dr. Shoop that first pointed to this vital truth. Dr. Shoop’s Re­ storative was not made to dose the Stomach nor to temporarily stim­ ulate the Heart or- Kidneys. That old-fashioned method is all wrong. Dr. Shoop’s Restorative goes direct­ ly to these failing inside nerves. The remarkable success of this pres­ cription demonstrates the wisdom of treating the actual cause of these failing organs.

X.MOCKSVILLE. N. G.. TUESDAY. FEBRUARY 9. 1909.No. 32 the future of our town . Prospects for the future growth and upbuilding of pur town were never so bright as at the present time. We are glad that some of our citizens are getting their eyes open to a realization of the fact that the town cannot advance in any way without the help of the citizens who go to make up the town. There are several of our business men inter­ ested and anxious for a hosiery mill to be erected in our town, and we believe enough stock could be se­ cured in less than a week to start this new enterprise. The Record is doing all in its power for the up­ building of the town, but without the co-operation of the business men we cannot accomplish much. Itdoes look to us like those who would be vastly benefitted by the upbuilding of the town, should give us their aid and assistance in this movement for a better and a bigger town. Look­ ing at it from a business standpoint, this proposed mill means virtually nothing to us, for we own no real estate, have no money to invest in the mill, and expect no advertising from it, for should the mill be built, we make an offer here and now to advertise her products throughout this land for the term of five years, without money and without price. Themillwill meanmoney to those who are able to take stock in it, and to the man who owns property, for it will create a demand for more houses and will increase the price of property. We want the town to grow. Other towns are going for­ ward day by day while our town is standing still. Let us not have it said of us that half the town will have to die and be buried before Mocksville grows any. Let’s prove to the rest of the country that we have some men who are not afraid to turn loose of $500 before getting hold of $1,000. The people are in­ terested in the upbuilding of the town—now let them demonstrate it further by getting together and or­ ganizing a company to build this hosiery mill. We are glad to note, in passing, that it is understood that Gurrent & Teague, lumbermen, of Rowan, will shortly erect a lumber plant adjoining the land recently purchased by Kincaid Bros., who will put in their planing mill at an early date. With these two new lumber plants, which are assured, and a hosiery mill, Mocksville would have something to boast of in 1909. We shall continue to strive for the upbuilding of our town, even though we have to wage the battle alone and without the assistance we so much need, and which we should have. The columns of our paper • are open to any one who will use them for the good of our town. Koitucky Heard From. Beach Hargis, the unhung mur­ derer of his degenerat daddy, has been showing off again.

I reached my destination on the XGtb after a long and tiresome jour­ ney across the continent. On ac­ count of snow slides I had to go down to Yancover and then come up the North Bank Railroad. Soon after I crossed the Mississippi at Memphis it began snowing, and I have been in snow ever since. This trip was a revelation to me. Au Easterner has no conception i of the vastness of this great county of ours. The mountain scenery is graud and the fertile valleys beaut ini. The impression created look­ ing out of the car window is that you are among an energetic, pro gressive people. Here in this lit­ tle town overlooking the Columbia river you find a thrifty, intelligeLt people, who are determined to build up a second Hood river iu the fertile White Salmon valley. The North Bank Bailroad, starting at Portland, has just been complet­ ed to Pasco, 231 miles, and is un­ der construction to Spokaue, 145 miles further, where it eonuects with the great transcontinental lines—the Great Northern and .the Northern Pacific. This new road has opened up a new territory, heretofore almost inaccessible. Mil­ lions of line timber and fei tile val­ leys have thus been made acces­ sible and are afforded firstclass transportation facilities, and the development for the next few years will be great. Opportunities are awaiting men with capital, brains and muscle, but the laggard and drone would soon find that this is noplace for him. Iam too much of a tendertoot to say much, and too little acquainted to pass judg­ ment or give my opinion as to how Iam goingto like, but judging 1’roin the reception I have received and the kindness shown the “ Tar Heel pioneer,” I can truthfully say I am pleased—yes, delighted. The surroundings are inspiring, the prospect pleasing and the peo­ ple kind and hospitable. There is one thing lacking—the loved ones at the old home—the “gi.-l” I left behind, make it a little tough. I hope when I have seen more of the country and its peoples to be able to give you a more interesting let­ ter. ' » With best wishes to all my Forth Carolina friends, I am, K. H. Mon Ris.

Mojksville Conncil No 226 Juni­ or Order United American Me­ chanics, was instituted July 24th 1907, with 26 Charter members, of which number three have died: Bro. Jake Brown died August 16th, 1907; Bro. John M. Wyatte died August 23rd, 1907; Bro. J. E. Wyatte died April 28th, 1908. We hold a Memorial Service to the memory of each Brother every year on the date of his burial. We have at this wrjtiug 55 mem­ bers in good etandingln the Order, which does not couut the deceased. This membership we are proud of, as the Couueil was instituted dur­ ing a financially bad year, and that we have made as good a gain in membership as we have. We have a membership that are true to the Order, which is shown by their regular attendance at the meeting. The benefits of the Junior Order are worth considering, as each and every member carries $500 insur­ ance, besides the Council pays $25, on the death of a member; at the small cost of 15c per week,. which can be paid easily by any working man, anil never be missed, and fur­ ther, there is a weekly sick benefit paid any sick or disabled brother, $2.00 for first week, and $3.00 for each week after, all this for only 15c. per week, besides the good of the Fraternity pait of the Order, of which all the members are proud. The Junior Order causes the Starsand Stiipes to unfurl from a- bove the many school buildings ot the United States, besides the Bi­ ble has beex placed iu these schools by the Order. It is uplifting to any young man that will .go by the lessons taught by the JuniorOrder, making him a better citizen. The Junior Order ot Mocksville is growing rapidly, being made up of the best men of Mocksville and surounding territory. Don’t ruu down a Fraternal Order, as they are a good and not ^n evil, uplift­ ing and elevating to any commun­ ity, and if you are not a iyember, you know not of what yon speak? as you are on the outside.

Reidsville, Jan. 23. —Rockingham county’s commissioners may be ask­ ed to grant license for the sale of whiskey to one or more parties in Reidsville at no distant date, as it is freely talked that if Glenn Williams, in Yadkin county, has a right to sell whiskey to drug stores and depos­ itories they have the same right in this county.

FRANK STROUD - - Editor.Miss Martha Gillespie, an aged lady who lived with her nephew and niece,- Mr. and Mrs. Prank Mennis, at tbeir home on the MocksviJIe road, three miles east of town, was so badly burned Sat: urday about 12 o’clock that she died the same evening at 7 o’clock. Her burns were so' severe that death was expected at any moment after the time of the distressing oc­ currence. Hersnfifering was in­ tense and death came as a sweet relief. While Miss Gil-’espie was S t s u J - ing before an open tire place' her dress caught lire. Not. knowing that her garments were burning she walked into the yard. When about 50 vards from the house a strong blast of wind fanned the fire into a fierce blaze, and Miss Gil­ lespie then realized her condition With a loud scream of distress she attracted the attention of Mr. ,Men ■■ niB, who had just returned from town and was unhitching his team, and the other members ot thefam ily who were in the house. Pan­ ned by the strong wind the flames had enveloped the whole body of the woman before Mr. Mennis reached her, but he made desperate efforts to tear the burning clothing from her body, his hands being badly burned. The efforts of both the pe:ishiug woman and her res­ cuer were in vain, however, and by the time Mrs. Mennis and others reached the nn'fortunate, Miss Gil­ lespie had fallen to the ground, practically all of her clothiug and her hair having been burned off.

Help Mocksville grow, by speak­ ing a good word for the town. The wise man goes after business, while the foolish man sits down and waits for it to come to him. The price of cotton remains about the same as last week, but we be­ lieve prices will advance ere long. Special attention is called to our big oflfer on page four. Show it to your neighbor and get him to sub­ scribe. There is one blessing, so say many of our exchanges, if the legislature has donu no good, it has not done much harm uo to this hour, for which everybody should be thank­ ful. Let the good people of Mocksville get together and organize .the -lock for a hosiery “miff. There are several of our best citizens interest­ ed in this enterprise and every citizen of the town should do his part to get it. Some time ago one of our sub­ scribers told us I hat he had a quanti­ ty of locust or simmon beer, and to save our lives, we cannot remember i which one it was. We are getting thirsty, and the one owning said beer will do us an everlasting good by sending his name and place of residence to this office at once. The stranger who reads The Re­ cord in other towns and States; will find that Mocksville has only one dentist, two stores, one harness shop, no doctors, no lawyers, no factories, no shops, no hotels, no livery stables. Sad indeed i» such a state of affairs. But we cannot compel the business men to advertise. It is to their in­ terest more so than to ours. We have got the best .Ifet of sub­ scribers to be found in the county. While their are a number who, are sometimes slow, the, majority of them always show up sooner or later. We appreciate the kindness of our subscribers who stand by us year by year, through thick and thin, and respond when an urgent call is made on them. Maythey live long and prosper. Several of our public schools have already closed, with only about two months school, Davie Academy be­ ing one and the school at Sheffield another. Thepeopleare mad and want to know why they are only to have two months school. Nay, Pau­ line, we do not know; we were under the impression that all the free schools were to run four months. Ask us something easy. It is to be hoped that an election will be held in Mocksville township for good roads. We understand that many of the citizens are signing the petitions calling for an election. With good roads the county would have something to be proud of. and the farmers could get to town with their produce, lumber, etc., in the winter. Let the whole county get ibusy and go to work for this much needed and in distensible thing. Tornadoes Claim a Score.

Legislative Doings. Raleigh. Feb. 2.—The Senate played around the early adjourn­ ment- proposition sorfie more fo day, Senator Elliott introducing a re­ solution that the finance committee be requested to make its report by February 12th, no new bills to be introduced after February 15th; and Senator Fry, a resolution, fix­ ing a limit for the introduction of bills. A motion by the latter. Senator to get his resolution away from the committee on rules was voted down by a good majority. Representative Grant, of Davie, introduced several bills which show the attitude of. the Republi­ can party in Nortn Carolina toward organized labor. One is for ,the protection of employes as members of labor unions, and it makes it unlawful tor employer to prevent employe from forming, joining or belonging to any lawful labor or­ ganization, coercion or threats of discharge because of such connec­ tion being made a misdemeanor penalized byrfine up to SlOO or im prisonment for not over six months, or both. Another prevents black­ listing of employes by providing that any employer attempting in any manner to prevent a discharg ed employe from obtaining employ* ment elsewhere shall be punished by fine not over $500 nor less than f 100, and. be liable in penal dam­ ages to the ■ discharged employs. Still another makes the.assiging of ,any ,(;laim for <|gbt against a resi­ dent of this Sf^te tor ’ the?pmrpose of having it collected by attach­ ment procedi ugs outside the State, or the sending out of the State any clasm against such person with in­ tent to deprive a resident; of fhe right to bare his personalJparninga exempt irorn application |to pay- ment.-of IiiS ' debt, where creditor and debtor are In the jurisdistiou of the courts ot this State, pun­ ishable by a fine . of $20 to $50, persons whose earnings are so at­ tached to have light of action to reeoyer the amount attached.

Withwhentsellingat from $1.20 o $1.30, corn at 80c., cotton at 9J to IOc., eggs 22 to 25c., and meat out of sight, the farmer should be in good financial condition. Mocfeville needs more good peo­ ple, more factories and more busi- n»ss men who are not afraid to ad- vsrtise their business. Outsiders judge a town by the advertising col­ umns of the town’s papers. We are sorry to say that strangers who read The Record are left under the im­ pression that Mocksville is a wide place in the road, or a little hamlet without lawyers, doctors, hotels, livery stables, factories, stores, etc. Ouy-cotumns show -that Mocksville has two stores, a dentist -and—one doctor, and a barber=-«hap, We are honestly ashamed that our paper has to go to all parts of the United States proclaiming such a tale and misrepresenting our town as it does. A few weeks ago we gave the town a write-up, mentioning in detail ev­ ery factory, business enterprise, etc. in the town. Wedidthis free and for the good of the town, and if we were able we would be glad to ad vertise without money the whole year around, but our pocket-book cannot stand the strain. AU the business houses, shops, factories and professional men in this town lumped together, expend for adver­ tising through The Record the enor­ mous sum of FIVE DOLLARS AND TWENTY-SIX CENTS a month. No wonder we are able to build a big cotton mill. Reedy Creek News. Jackson Byerly had a barn rais­ ing Tuesday. Our clerer mill man Crofts, is on the sick list this week.

BOYS’ CORN CLUBS. We notice that a number of coun­ ties in the State are organizing boys’ corn clubs, something that every county should do. The State De­ partment of Agriculture, through Mr. T. B. Parker, has offered $100 to be divided into three parts and given to three boys in the State who make the largest yield per acre. The exhibits will be made by num­ ber so that the judges will not know who grew the corn. We notice that Iredell county has organized many of these corn- clubs, and different citizens will doubtless offer several additional prizes. A corn club will go far toward improving the corn crops and keeping the boys interest­ ed in the growing of this profitable crop. To start the ball rolling. The Record proposes to give to the young man living in Davie county, who pro­ duces this year the largest and finest ear of corn, five dollars in gold. We propose to give this premium abso­ lutely free and without any condit­ ions whatever, it makes no differ­ ence who the young man is or wheth­ er he is a subscriber to our paper or not. We do this to arouse interest among the farmer boys in the pro­ duction of finer and better com, and we want every young man under the age of 25, to get busy and enter this com contest. Remember, all you have to do is to raise the finest ear of com and you get the gold with­ out anything further on your part. We believe that a number of other prizes for the largest yield per acre, and for the best quality, will be giv­ en by some of the .county’s business men, which will be-announced later on. We shall publish numerous ar­ ticles along this line from time to time, and our columns are open to any one who has anything to say along this line. News From Cana.

Your Cotton Crop Can Be Increased It costs no more to cultivate an acre that produces two bales of cotton than an acre which produces only one-quarter of a bale. Why not see what you can do with Yirginia-Carolina Fertilizers Other men have been able to double and more than double their yield per acre with a liberal application of Virginia-Carolina Fertilizers. Messrs. Lucas & Jackson of Kelsey County, Tenn., used Vir- ginia-Carolina Fertilizer on about 55 acres planted with cotton, and say: “We have the finest crop of cotton we ever saw, and all the people around here think the same. We actually counted 447 bolls on one stalk. Another stalk had by actual count 409 bolls, forms, squares and blossoms. On about 8 acres we expect to make about 2 bales to the acre, and an estimate of adjoining farms not so fer­tilized and under other cultural methods, will yield only I bale to five acres.” AninteresHngpictilre of the cotton plants referred to will be 'ound in the new 1909 Virginia-Carolina Farmers’ Year Book, copy which may be had from your fertilizer dealer, or will be. sent you write our nearest sales office.
