Tb Carolina Home and Tarn and Eastern Reflector. ARE DOING A GREAT AND GOOD WORK METHODIST CLASS OFFICERS. Bluet Delightfully Entertain The Beds. The Methodist class with a large attendance last Sunday morn- elected the following officers for the ensuing term of six E. Austin. M. Clark. Brown. Assistant W. Cobb. C. J. H. Shore. Assistant Brown. Press B. James. Following close on the election of officers, the Blue team on Monday night entertained the Reds at an ex- banquet in the Sunday school room of the church. While waiting for the guests to all arrive Mr. A. B. Ellington some very fine selections on his large phonograph, which were great- enjoyed by every one. This was followed by the meeting coming to order with Mr. Q. E. Harris in the chair, presiding as captain of the Blues. Besides some excellent and complimentary, as well as amusing, side talks by Mr. Harris, Mr. J. B. James, ex-president of the class, spoke very appropriately on the of attending to the little things in and gave several apt illus- that forcibly impressed his point upon the audience. Mr. James has made the class an excellent dent, and although we have to release him from these obligations, it makes us glad to know that his good work will still go on. After some remarks by Mr. Harris that made every one feel good, Mr. Austin, the successor of Mr. James, was called upon for a speech on To this Mr. Austin responded, in his usual de- way, creating much amuse- by his Jokes, and finally with a tribute to the high stand- ard of success that had been obtain- ed by the class, and pleading that every one co-operate with him in making its regular attendance still larger, and in doing a greater good than it has ever done. Prof. Austin is Just the man the class needs, and by selecting such a man as dent the class is doing much credit. Mr. D. M. Clark, the newly elected vice president, was next called on and delivered an earnest, thoughtful address on History and poses of the Mr. Clark's deep interest in the as well as the material interest of the community, is well known and that his speech touched responsive chord in the hearts of his hearers, was shown by the enthusiastic It received. After the speech-making was over, delightful refreshments were served, while Mr. Ellington's phonograph reproduced the voices of a fine very similar to some of those heard in the choirs of our churches. The banquet was a great success and afforded the participants much no. The Red team will have to do great things next month to hoop up with the pace the Blues have set.

Early last fall that railroad took up with the secretary of the North Carolina board of agriculture the of establishing experimental farms in various representative districts in the eastern part of the state. The pro- posed plan was to make these ex- farms joint operating propositions between the state board of agriculture, the Norfolk Southern and the enterprising farmers of Eastern North Carolina. As a result of these the Norfolk Southern has already es- several experimental farms, which will begin demonstration op- this spring. One of these is located on the farm of J. L. De- two miles north of Shaw- another on the farm of S. W. Wilkinson, at Wilkinson station, same, and as a remuneration for ins services he receives the entire crop proceeds. The Land and Industrial Depart- of the Norfolk Southern Rail- road will have entire supervision of this work, lay out the plats and keep close observation of the different tests. Accurate records of costs and crop yields will also be kept and pub- in the railroad literature that will be issued from time to time. One condition that the railroad com- exacts is that all these farms must be located facing the railroad, where they can be seen from passing trains, and they must also be located upon public roads that they may serve the pose of observation by all the people in the local counties. Valuable information calculations will undoubtedly result from these experimental farms and the Norfolk Southern Railroad company is to be at Wilkinson seven miles from Belhaven; and commended for their enterprise in on the farm of Chas. establishing of one-half mile north of and another on the farm of J. A. Miller, about five miles southeast from New Bern and near Thurman station. They expect to establish still other farms yet this season, and plans are that several more will be added the second year after these first farms get under way. The work taken up this first year will mainly be the demonstration of possibilities in growing forage crops, and the experiments will be the testing out of the many different grasses and other rough feed crops. Among these will be tests in the Alfalfa, fall sown, and spring sown, clover; sapling clover and red clover; mixed grasses and clovers; timothy; state. They are surely the leaders in the locating of these experimental farms as a part of the railroad work and it is expected that other railroads will follow the good example set by the Norfolk Southern.

The BUll was brought to enjoin town from cutting down a row of shade trees on the outer edge of the sidewalk in widening the street. The first question raised was that the town did not own the easement In or title to the sidewalk. Judge Walker states that there was ample evidence the street had been dedicated to pub- use, the sidewalk having been paved by order of the town, etc. The second question raised that town had Instituted condemnation pro- and the attempted removal of the trees was without due process of law. Judge Walker states, may he regarded as settled law the power to take private property for public uses belongs to every pendent government exercising power, for it is a necessary in- to its and requires no constitutional The of the town expressly the town to widen streets and enter upon the work and after- wards to appraise the damages.

It Is only necessary that there be that compensation will be paid. It was not, therefore, necessary that a hearing be allowed the plaintiff prior to the order of the board of commissioners.

It was so re- markable a speech that the editor of this paper requested it for on, and printed it in this paper the day following. Dr. Knapp was a native of Vermont and lived in Iowa and in Louisiana before coming to the position as Chief of the Demonstration work for the Federal Government.

The first work he did in the south brought him into national prom- and made the people of Lou- and Texas rich, was in re- to rice culture. He enabled the people of Texas to open large areas to the profitable cultivation of rice that had never before been for agriculture purposes.

It was Dr. Knapp who pointed the way to escape and relief to Texas farmers, when the boll weevil threat- destruction of its cotton crop, and the Texas people did not hesitate to say that the farmers of that state owe to him than to any man who has lived in this generation. It was true of Dr. Knapp. as it has true of a few other wonderful men, his great work was done in his old age.

Dr. Knapp had an impressive way about him. He spoke with such clearness and logic and force, that he convicted those to whom he talked His knowledge was so complete and large, both Scientific and practical that upon the subjects he discussed, he left nothing to say when he had finished. Secretary Wilson was con- that his plan was the only one that could put his department in touch with every farmer.

Have you been out on the White property, just south of the Training School to see what is being done To those of you who haven't it is Our people are awake and realize that we must have some sort of amusement during the hot summer months. Several lovers of the game have subscribed stock and under the management of Mr. Simon are erecting an up-to- date ball park. You have to admit that sounds god. The proposed scheme with Ayden, Grifton, Kinston and Greenville in a friendly contest, they say, must be carried out and Greenville must be the winner. As only homo boys are allowed to play, the interest will be increased and expenses decreased. Now, if those men are liberal enough to build a park, people should do their part and assist In equipping the team. A meeting will be held at an early date and all interested should attend. Go out and elect men to pilot the team on to victory. A committee will be appointed to canvass the town to raise sufficient money to purchase uniform and ma- If you don't care about the sport and don't intend to go out, even when the fever gets to white heat, then so inform the committee and they will pass you by.

I look for the coming season to one of the most successful that the game has had. There is nothing very original in that statement, tut it shows I am an optimist as far as the diamond is concerned. Certainly everything points to a fulfillment of the usual forecast. There is every reason why the coming campaign should break records. The country is prosperous; so is baseball. Inter- est in the game was stimulated by high class play last season. Teams that had been in the ruck, climbed out and in their rush -to the front played sensational ball. The such cities were pleased. This year these fans will turn out in even great- numbers. Their teams, may do even better. And in 1910 there were clubs that fell off somewhat. It fol- lows that the supporter; of such teams are hi a state of uncertainty this spring. They want to see their favorites regain lost honors. They, too, will have all the rust clicked off the turnstiles within a few of championship play. There promises to be an element of great uncertainty regarding the races in both the Na- and American Leagues. Of course this argues well for and widespread interest from mid April to early J. in May Columbia. TAX LIST TAKERS.

Murdering For Power When King was slain by Jehu, his mother, the Dowager, realized instantly that this meant her loss of rank and power-toe power and honor riches which her selfish, proud heart so loved. She realized that the moment her grandson ascend- ed the throne, she must vacate her position in favor of her daughter-in- law Her selfish, proud heart resolved that on no account should this be. Rather, she would be a murderess. Forthwith she caused her to be slain, except one, an infant, who was bidden by his aunt in a room used for the storage of sleeping mats, and, In our styled a Subsequently, lie was nursed his seventh year.

A party of naturalists from the Smithsonian institute are now en- gaged in making a biological survey of the Panama canal zone. This expedition, though primarily of in- to scientists, serves also to call attention to the importance of the country itself, aside from the great canal. The reports thus far sent in by the explorers indicate that this region, where Europe planted its first town on this con- abounds in a wealth and variety of vegetation as well as animal life. It is to de- precisely the extent and dis- of these plant and animal families that the naturalists are at work. Some of the streams of the Panama country flow into the tic and others into the Pacific ocean. On the opposite sides of this con- divide there now exists great distinctions which will doubtless be merged or completely wiped out by the opening of the canal and by the fresh water lake that will be formed by the Gatun dam. It is particular- important to science that such distinctions be noted before they are erased forever, since it was through this Tory Isthmus territory that many Of animal and vegetable life In ages long ago migrated from South America to North America and from North to South America. What will most interest the general public, however, is the proof that Panama is a land of rich natural resources from which prosperity will flow as soon as they arc once brought development.

The sole crime punishable by death In the state is deliberated and murder or the killing of-. human being in the perpetration or attempt to perpetuate any arson, rape robbery of burglary. The killing of any number of human beings by de- throwing a moving train off the track will not cause the man convicted of this offense to lose his life. The House at Harrisburg thinks evidently this is a mistake, for it has passed on second reading, with- out a dissenting vote, a bill making which results in loss of life punishable by death. Though the tendency of the present day is to restrict rather than extend the application of the death penalty, no valid objection can be made to including killing caused by train wrecking in the list of homicides for which life is to be forfeited. So long as we have capital punishment for murder the train wrecker who destroys life should receive the penalty. A grave crime can hardly be conceived than the deliberate wrecking of a rapidly moving train carrying human beings.

The New York World has the following to say of this great There was more than grief in the long procession of working men and women that yesterday followed the bodies of the fire victims through the drenched streets of New York. It was a tribute and it was a pro- test. A patient people have felt in this disaster a sense of personal outrage. They have grown used to hard toil whose returns seem ever less to measure against the bare necessities of life. They have learn- ed to accept with little complaint cramped homes and the cruel fatigue of many stairways and thronged street cars and the lack of space for their children's play as inevitable of the congested growth of a great city. But they do feel intolerably wrong- ed that no one knows how many thousands of their number must Serve the common need in their long hours of toil under daily constant peril of being burned alive.

Knapp, which occurred a few days ago in Washington City, the agricultural de- of the government lost one of its most useful members. Dr. Knapp had long been connected with the department, and no man has done more to advance the interests of the country than he. All over the South he was well known, his work, especially in the cotton belt, being prominent. It was under his direction that the farmers of the infected districts learned to combat the boll weevil and lose their fear of that pest. INCREASED SCHOOL TAX LOST. An instance has come out in which the recent legislature only half did a thing. A law was passed by that body purporting to increase the pub- school tax cents, by which something like would have been added to the school fund of the state. At the same time the failed to observe the equation between the ad and poll tax, increasing the latter cents. With the purpose of getting this oversight corrected Gov- brought suit in the name of the state against Auditor Wood to compel the latter to make the change in the poll tax. The case was carried before Judge F. A. Daniels who held that the increased tax of cents unconstitutional, because of the failure to observe the equation. The case was appealed to the Supreme court. TAKES THE LEAD. Greenville will not be the ville it should be and can be until the people of Greenville themselves get real busy to establish enterprises here. The men want and the things that bring business most quickly and regularly are en- that have substantial weekly pay rolls, whose operatives turn over their money to the channels of trade fast as received. In many avocations that men follow there is an element, more or less, of personal danger, but the man who goes to work down in a mine takes his life into his hands. There are plenty of men who will risk everything for money, even though they could easily find em- attended by less danger. Judge R. B. Peebles held court in Wilmington last week. In a murder trial the jury brought in a verdict of acquittal which seemed contrary to the evidence, and what the judge said to that jury was a plenty. Judge Peebles refused to . try any more When a newspaper grows, it shows there is doing around the town that backs it.

A man said to The Reflector that when he lived in another county he naturally thought it the best place in the world, but since he moved over and has lived in Pitt a while he has found out it is the best of all. And he is right.

There are two French papers in New Orleans, one called the Bee and the other the Wasp. Naturally, with such names, they got to stinging each other, and the thing kept going until the editors came to blows. Between the mine disasters and New York the death rate goes on at such alarming proportions that will have to bid for immigrants to keep his up. Carolina did better this time.

What's The The alert newspaper publisher pays large sums of money for news to print because it sells his papers. The live merchant pays good money for space to furnish the news from his because it sells his goods. And It is a proper, legitimate game. It is more than is a necessary game. A contemporary has well ex- pressed relation of the mer- chant to his public is much like that of tho newspaper man to his Every newspaper has a that daily looks for the The enterprising woman who has goods to buy picks up the newspaper with as much eagerness to learn the rows of bargains and styles as the men do to see the stock quotations or what congress Is doing about the re- agreement. Tho merchant who does not respond to the demand with a good story about his offerings and values meets the same fate as the newspaper man who not know a good piece of live news when he sees it, or who fails to sec It when it is right before his eyes News is what the people want and they pay for the privilege of reading it. When there's no more important to attract it is usually because the writer failed to make it newsy. In this spring season there is a human interest story in every retail business, a story of attractive bargains for the benefit of the customers. The public is not has its eyes on the paper.

We are inviting set- and industrial promoters to come to Wilmington. In the ab- we are inviting them, but we haven't taken the steps to send out the invitations where they can be read and accepted. To get down to the we must actually publish our in vital ions and give publicity to the advantages and possibilities for settlers and Industrial promoters. That would still be indefinite, but if we were to extend the invitation, accompanied by the facts and that naturally is desired, and would at the same time offer settlers the choice of a farm in the midst of acres of land into farm tracts, our proposition would be if we should state the price, the terms and the aid and the co-operation that would be given to settlers. When we offer manufacturing sites free, or at nominal prices, and have the goods to show when a promoter comes to look them over, and when we state what we can do for his Industry, how much stock we will take in it, and give him full Information about raw material, transportation, etc., we will be getting down to a definite trial proposition. A good illustration of a definite proposition to settlers comes from Florida. Three weeks ago men, women and children, composing a party of visited the southern portion of Florida to look in- to a land proposition. They came from dozens of States, even from the Oklahoma and Western States, and they were at- to Florida through propositions and following-up cir- concerning the drawing of ten acre tracts of land which they could contract to buy at for each tract. The land was ready to be shown, the price was known before the home- seekers left their states and they knew definitely what they were go- to Florida acre for That Is per acre, and the lands were in the great Everglades drainage district, where exceedingly fertile lands were valueless till they were drained. After these Florida lands were ready for settlement on definite plans, a real estate developing company conduct- ed an advertising and selling cam- for a syndicated farms company and the result was the disposal of lots of land to thousands of purchasers. When the date for the sale arrived, special train brought the purchasers to the lands, Many them coming from beyond the Mis- river. The purchasers were all white people, and thus the or Florida will be Increased. We-i and women are the real assets of and It Is they who make fa mi, build the cities and do the Lu i. n.
