Opens Fire on the Preacher Who Proves Ready to Return In Kind Both Bound Over to Court. There was much excitement among colored people here, Monday afternoon over a shooting affair that was en- gaged in between Herman Cherry, a young colored man, and Rev. Martin Butler, the pastor of the colored Methodist church. The trouble grew out of charges against the preacher of wrong with a sister of Cherry. Relatives of the girl for two or three days have been on the track of the preacher, had warned him that he must leave town by a certain time, end some of the preacher's sympathizers had been guarding him at night through fear that he might be attack- s- It seems that Herman Cherry, the of the girl, did not live here but being advised of the trouble came to Greenville Monday. Late in the he was on Reade street, saw Butler, the preacher, sitting in the door at the home of Sherman Fore- man. Cherry pulled out a gun and began trying to use It on the preacher, and the also drew a gun and began firing it. Some say that Cher- gun would not fire and others say that it did. At. any rate there were several shots fired but none of struck anybody. After the shooting Cherry came up town and surrendered to the sheriff and Butler was arrested a little later and both of them were taken before Justice of the peace H. Harding and placed under bond to appear at a trial this morning. At the preliminary trial this morn- Justice Harding bound both of them over to the next term of Pitt Superior court.

PURCHASED GROUND Ample Room The New Court House and Jail. The board of county commissioners have purchased from Mr. W. L. Smith the comer lot, known as the Blow lot, adjoining the county property. Having previously purchased the former Masonic temple lot. the county now owns half of the block on Third street and running through from Evans to Washington, making a full acre. It is a splendid piece of prop- affording ample room for both the new court and jail with a large lawn surrounding them. The court house will have two fronts, one on Evans street and the other on Third, and the jail will be near the northwest corner of the lot on Wash- street. Surest That Be Located Near of Block. Some of the property owners on Washington and Second streets are complaining at the decision of the Board of County Commissioners and the building committee to locate the new jail n the northwest corner of the county's lot, next to Washington street. The ground of their complaint is that the jail being located so near to them will depreciate the value of property for residence purposes. They suggest that the Jail placed in the rear of the court house near the of the block, and not out near the street.

RESOLUTIONS BY SUITS. Mr. L. L. who says he is a buyer on the various warehouse floors of North and South Carolina and has written a lengthy article to the Charleston News and Courier protesting Against practice of buy- tobacco privately in the country. He concludes this- article as ell the country buying stop; let the planter, after his hard labor of raising a crop, put that on the market, open to all bidders where there will be plenty of competition for there will be an influx of buyers when it is shown that the planters are marketing their crops for the high- est bidders on the warehouse floors, and they will soon realize that in past they have lost thousands of by selling in the their tobacco, and giving the buyers a chance on their common grades. The planters often abuse the buyers, especially the so-called for not giving more for types, whereas, they are not given a chance to buy their better grades except through other channels. Sell all your crops on the warehouse floors at open sale,, and you will in future not have cause to complain of the price your tobacco yields per acre, but the price will be inducement for larger plantings, more attention to its cultivation to raise good tobaccos. Put on your thinking cap, digest what I have suggested and try it for one sea- son not to sell at the pack houses and you will, as stated get 1-3 to per cent, more for crops If you do not stop this country buying and selling at Home, and not giving the buyers who are at these various markets for the purpose of buying these grades an opportunity to buy, the buyers will each year grow less and less, and eventually no tobacco of consequence will be raised in South Carolina, and all because the planters will not embrace the opportunity for realizing good prices on their crops. It is better to grade these better cur- I realize in some cases it is difficult to get good graders. To those that cannot grade their tobaccos, I would suggest that, in packing their leaves market, that they throw out all burnt into a scrap pile. Often a curing of pounds will not contain pounds of these burnt leaves, but by not. throwing out these leaves you damage the looks of the pile dollars per hundred. It would well to throw aside your green leaves, put them in a bulk in your pack and let them remain until you have sold all your well cured tobacco, then offer your greenish pile, and you will Hurt great improvement In same. Market all your crop at. the ware- house, give all buyers an equal show- let it go to the highest bidder. If the sale is not to your satisfaction you have the privilege to turn the ticket and get an advance If possibly and if this policy is adopted by the planters and raisers of tobacco you will see very active sales at all of the principal tobacco markets in South Carolina and you will at least real- the thousands of dollars you have thrown away since yon have started raising tobacco in this Carolina Leaders in Public Ed- Met at Chapel Hill.

He named and described several cases which had come under his observation. his remarks, he introduced the we, the members of the Association of County Superintend- of of North Carolina, are convinced of the widespread valence of hookworm disease in the State, and that the disease occasions inestimable loss to the State in lives, citizenship and material wealth; and, whereas, the is both prevent- able and curable, it resolved, that, the hereby pledges its co-operation in all well organized movements for the eradication of the disease; and further realizing that such a move- has already been inaugurated we recommend that the State such steps as may be found to aid in accomplishing the desired Instead of referring the resolution to the committee on rules, the rules suspended and the resolution roted on and adopted without a dis- vote.

Grace includes not alone symmetry of movement, our. all accomplishments in activity, such as dancing, skating swimming, riding, and also gifts, such as talent for music or acting. In other words, the girl who has the of is the girl who does things well. By intelligence is meant the adaptable quality of mind, rather than that of brilliant order.

TO the young man on the thresh- old of life question of shall I do with my- comes demanding an answer. During the past years the call of city to the ambitious young man has been Insistent. Today the country is calling for men With ambition energy faith In its possibilities. To such men It equaled opportunities. The of the farm ore limited or extent. The young man with capital who Is looking ON HIS WAT TO MARKET WITH A LOAD OF for a business opening finds it on the farm. The farm offers him the to exercise his executive ability by managing broad acres and herds that number in the thousands. If bis taste runs to quality rather than it offers him chances in the pure bred stock business for the broadest use of his money and talents. There is no occupation more fascinating than the molding of living animals to make them conform to an ideal of There is opportunity for long continued study of blood there are months and years of anxious wait- to see the results of the union of certain families; there are moments of disappointment when an animal falls to develop as well as expected. But greatest of all is the Joy of success when the breeder's efforts are crowned with an animal a little nearer than has been produced before. The man who can see such an animal march out of a crowded show ring with the purple ribbon without a feel- that at least in a measure ho has achieved success has ambitions that are indeed hard to satisfy. The pure bred business has some pitfalls, but to the man who enters It with good and ambition to succeed it offers financial returns that can ex- in few other To the young man starting without capital the form offers op- The man with n few friends and a reputation for In- honesty It easy to Nut n farm and borrow to equip It. There Is n risk to run. of course. what in a risk to n young man with strength Well considered links are to success In almost any lino, and to the young farmer they an to greater effort. Now that juices of farm s-., .; wit use is a setter of tint a tow .,. Baring the farm itself is by no means Impossible, even in the most fertile sections of the corn belt. Hundreds of farmers are looking for managers for farms that vary In size and equipment to suit the fancy of any one. This line offers some of the greatest opportunities to the young man without capital. The salaries at first may seem small as compared with some of those offered In the city. Usu- ally they include board and however. There Is a better chance to lay up money on the farm at a month than in the city at twice that amount. For the man who can the first year's salary Is hardly an Indication of what Is to follow. Most landowners are willing to advance the salary as fast as the manager shows his ability. Better yet, they ore willing to more of the responsibility to his and to give him more capital, so that he can achieve greater results. In most cases after a man has shown what be is worth it Is easy for him to got a share of the net profits In addition to bis salary. In many cases It is easy to get In on a partnership basis. In either case the manager is as as If he owned the farm, the chances for financial success are nearly as great The great advantage of a position of this kind or, In fact, of any kind of farm work is that there are so many chances to invest money as fast as it is made. The man on the farm has a dozen places to invest every dollar. This in itself is a big incentive to saving, saving means prosperity for both the individual and the nation. The invest- which offers the greatest return is farm land. Even In those localities where laud is now worth considerably more than an acre the limit is yet far from being reached. There Is little chance to lose money on land provided it is wisely invested. It is the lack of knowledge of what constitutes a good farm that makes land an safe investment for the city man. There may be some land agents, but unfortunately l hey have no trademark to distinguish them from the other variety. To buy land with- out seeing it is a painless way of part- with hard money. As for the promised profits, they usually find their way to the pockets of- the land agent, leaving the investor a sadder and wiser man. Between 1900 and the average Increase In the value of the farm land In the United State was per cent Between 1900 much of the land In the western part of the volley doubled value. With a system of farming that keeps up the fertility prices will go higher rather than lower. The man who owns a farm has con- opportunities to put his money Into better fences, better stock and better buildings. lie opportunities to invest in more land at home or far- west. From a standpoint farming offers opportunities to young men that duplicated In few other callings. Farming as a profession Is and its ranks still far from full. The young farmer Is not entering an over- crowded where he must com- with his fellows and boost prices unnaturally In order to make a bare living. In agriculture room and opportunity for all. country Is throbbing with the vitality of a new awakened life, The password is the reward Is success. It is not the call of money that In turning ti ambitious young man to the farm. A calling that can offer no reward but a one Is scarce- worthy of the name. The chief call of the city bus been the call of the combined with the call of the crowd. Bettor roads and a denser pop- have enabled the country to offer a social which Is superior to of tho city. Higher prices have it to o; see city. In addition. It offers to tho man the opportunity to live the broad- est, fullest life of which be is capable. It offers him a business be can call his own and an Independence which he could gain In the city only after a life- time of toil. The greatest of most rural communities Just now Is who can demonstrate on their own farms the possibilities of scientific men who under- stand the possibilities and the need of a broader community life. The stories of some of the young men who heeded the call of the try and gave themselves to the of their community read like romances. A dozen years or so ago a little Massachusetts community was on the road. The nearby cities had sapped it of its strength and or. Injudicious cropping had taken away much of the fertility of tho soil, the people had lost all were content to let things drift from bad to worse. About this time a young man, a son of of the graduated from an college. He received a tempting offer from the department of to take up work at Washington A brother Iowa wrote him a glow- invitation to come to the fertile lands of the middle west He rejected both offers and wont home. The most optimistic resident would have laughed at the Idea of there be- any opportunity there. But the young man went to work. He did not lecture to the neighbors or advise them. He merely set out to show thorn what the impoverished land was ca- of. lie made the old farm pay. and its dilapidation changed to an air of prosperity.

As soon as he could spare the time from his farm tho young farmer set about reorganizing tho school. He gave one corner of S. A. L. SCHEDULE Trains leave Raleigh effective May 15th YEAR ROUND 3.45 a.

You cannot always count on a in advance. With some of the candidates it was a close primary. One man calls Roosevelt a king and another says he is a liar. Just a of opinion. The Wilmington Dispatch intimates that weather has come because base ball has gone. When tobacco money and money both get to circulating, there ought to something doing. Some of them are yet carrying the effects of the whiskey they tanked up on Saturday. There seems to hi about as much spite as any thing else in those charges against the Charlotte college. They brought the pressure to bear so heavy on Senator that he resigned in the club. Now that the primary is out of the way, lot every body get busy to make Greenville and Pitt county go for- ward. Governor Patterson, no doubt fore- seeing his finish defeat, has with- drawn from the race for governor of Tennessee.

The Charlotte News has run against the novelty of a libel suit. The Cincinnati Amusement Co., a concern running shows ii- Charlotte, brought the suit because The News pointed out wherein the amusement company was not properly observing the Sabbath with its shows. There ought not be any danger of The News getting hurt in a suit of that kind. For a man who sticks to his job. even if there is nothing in it, The Re- would point out Chairman F.

He looks well after the affairs of the party. There should be no grouchiness over the outcome of the county primary. There were several candidates for the various offices, as every man had the right to run if wanted to, but of course all could not be nominated. Those who lost in the race have no reason to complain, and the ticket that is nominated should have the support of every Democrat in the county in the November election. Colonel editor of the Rock- Post, suggested the of a highway Wilmington o Charlotte. The suggestion took root at once and was followed by a nesting of representatives from the several counties through which the will pass to begin plans to cure the road. There is a similar movement further up the State for highway between Salisbury and and the along the route of that proposed road are also Setting active for it. The of such highways will mean a advance for the State. We like to see Greenville along he route of a highway between and the coast. Colonel Roosevelt refusing to at- tend a banquet in.

Pitt county has held another voting primary and The Reflector is frank to say that it does not like the kind of primaries that have been held here, and believes that many people of the county are of the same opinion. There was more debauching of voters day than has ever before been in any election in the county. Whiskey was distributed freely and it was disgrace- to say the least of it. We do not know and cannot say who was res- for it, guilty ones whom they may, it should be condemn- ed. The obtaining of votes by such means was a violation of law and de- Editor J. A. Parham, of the Fay- Index, has the true grit, we glory in his manhood to ex- press his opinions. In the sixth die- fight for the congressional nomination, The Index has pronounced in its opposition to the renomination of Congressman God- win. Because of this a subscriber in Robeson county wrote a letter order- his paper stopped, and some threatened to do likewise if The Index did not change. In reply to this Editor Parham wrote a long giving his reasons for opposing Godwin, which were well-founded, and his closing paragraph was as I am fully conscious of the fact that I shall probably lose money by my opposition to God- renomination, but if I could not publish a paper without crush- my conscience and remaining lent in a matter of this kind I would go back to work as a hired In tho Greenville precinct of day primary, but a crowd stayed by to the finish. It is good to look out at East Carolina Teachers Training school and see the large number of students gathered at this splendid institution. The school has started second cession with an attendance much larger than the first year. Many of the first year students are back again and a host of ones have come, he Reflector Joins with the faculty in bidding each and every one of them a hearty welcome to the school and to Greenville. It can be truly said that the Demo- of Pitt county nominated an ex- ticket in the primary day. Every man on the ticket is well known and his character stands above question. Some of them arc already in office and serving their county well, and the others will make a record equally as good At the same time it can also be said those who were defeated in the primary were equally good men; in fact there was not a can- in the race but who would have made a good officer. It is credit- able to the party that only good men were in the race. Those who are have cause for congratulation. The closeness of vote shows that it was difficult to decide between dates when all were so good.

Don't fret about that, he will find out soon enough to make him wish he never had. That the State of Maine, which has for years and years been Republican, went Democratic in Monday's election is something to take note of. It shows the turning of the tide and in- creases the prospects of the next con- being Democratic. ---------o The Charlotte News has just in- stalled a new press, one of the finest that turns out papers at the rate of an hour.

Again referring to the supplanting of the in Louisiana. Mr. Walter Parker, of New Orleans, has sent out a circular letter detailing plans that have been made to bring one thousand thrifty peasant families from France to settle and cultivate acres of land in southwest Louisiana which was recently purchased for that pose.

In the eyes of the world the average farmer is a much more important man than he was a decade ago. There is a reason for it. Farmers have awakened to a keener sense of the dignity and importance of the work which they are engaged and as a result they are more independent and prosperous. Scientific discovery has done more for the farmers than for other large class, not only show- them how to make their land more productive, but how to make their lives easier, and full of intellectual and varied interests.

Friday evening, with Mrs. Mark as hostess, the ladies of the town enjoyed one of the most pleasant occasions of the season. The lawn had been beautifully decorated with the national colors. Japanese lanterns of the most artistic shapes and colors hung in nook and corner, shed- ding a soft light on the scenery round about. Rugs were scattered here and there on the soft carpet of grass, while palms and flowers were so arranged as to make the beauty of the situation more complete and make the whole appear like a well designed hanging garden. However, on account of the threatening weather, the chairs and tables, winch had been placed on the lawn, had to transferred to the hails and parlors within, Where, in a short time, everything was in Promptly at o'clock the guests be- to arrive.

Alter removing their cloaks the guests were ushered into the parlors and were en- gaged in having a good time with a man near to Between the games of progressive Japanese the attendants brought in tea, sandwiches, ice cream and punch, all of which wen served in tastefully ornamented china of red and white.

The Carolina Union Farmer is the farmers to equip their homes with water-works. Some of the Mecklenburg farmers have already done but The Union Farmer tells how, by a co-operative system, the work can be accomplished so cheaply that almost every farmer can afford It. In explaining its plan It says that a well-boring machine can be bought for four or five dollars. Ten men in a local union could put in each and buy a well-boring machine, and after you get the machine you can bore wells at an cost of about seven cents a foot, and at that price you can afford to have more than one well on your place. With a two-inch tubular well or a hundred feet deep you can get pure water and there will be no typhoid germs in it. Then you can erect a tank and with a two- horsepower gasoline engine you can pump water into the tank, and thus have a supply of water ready at all times to turn In through pipes to your residence and barns. But it would, perhaps, be better to expend for a five-horsepower engine so that you can have power enough to also run your wood-saw, feed-cutter, grind- stone, churn, etc. These home can be had at comparatively small cost if farmers can get several members of their local union to co- operate with you. It is a good idea and one worth Chronicle. Lieutenant Wilson to Wed Miss Olive Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence V. Morrill, of Snow Hill, have announced the en- of their daughter, Miss Olive, to Lieut. S.
