I wuz plum peterfied. with aston ishment when I seen the many improvement that has been made since me an Jeems left there. Willowbrook park in the centre of the Newberry Cotton Mill village, is actilly the purtiest si>ot I ever lade ize on. It ort to be called Eden. Many a "Adam" finds his "Eve" thare, but the "sarpent" haint never left his trale thare yit, an that park wuz opened jest three yere ago. ?- * ??"i- 1:1 rue piace iooks u^e mue uc ten yere old, judging from the size an bewtv of the evergreens, weepin wilIers, rose bowers and bewti-ful grove of mock orange treze. At nite the place is lit up by hundreds of red, white and blue 'lectric lites all fixed; up in fancy patterns, swinging in I graceful loops the full length of the j park an twinklin about among' the; treze. Thare ain't a place nowhare ! fur a feller to stele a kiss, or git a ga] I ii J. _ .r 1 vutum siut; ui iier uiuiuci. The band stand is rite close up to the skatin rink, an on Saturday an Tuesday nites the Newberry mill band, one of the finest in the hull State, entertains the hundreds of peepil that j gather, with the purtiest musick ever.! This band played fur Taft in Augusta,; Ga., wonce. * I As I wuz a saj^n, thare ain't no- i whare ner no place fur the "sarpant" to enter. Thare's so much fun an rale good holesome amusements! goin on, an pepil air so full of re- j joicing an thankfulness fur that park, j that thay don't have no time fur un-! worthy thoughts an deeds. Then, too, Mr. Zack Wright, the mill president, Mr. J. M. Davis the superintendent, the promoters of the park, Mr. W. H. Hardeman, the weave Toom overseer, and other officials with taa-re iauiuie*>, aai a-neia nut; uuic, , fcelpin to entertain the crowds that I cum from all parts of the city to enjoy the park. I can't begin to tell all the things ] 4hat air thare, fur I don't no what to ( call em. But thare air plenty of nice j; 6eets, rustic an other kinds, an swings i ] fur babies, fixed so thay can't fall out, < swings of all sizes fur grown folks an ( children, joggin boards, merry wid- s ders,. see-saws, mcrry-o-rounds, an two t "skoot-the-shoots." I ? r Them "shoot-the-shoots" air great i big long flat bottom tin lined boxes SO j t feet long, or mor, jest wide enough t to set it. One end is away up in \ the a*ir 15 or 20 feet hi an the other a end is about a foot from the ground an sorter curved up. Well, you go up I a stairway to the hi end, set down in s that box an turn loose, an you'll skoot I down that thing samer than greezed t lightning, an land on yore feet with- s out a jar. ~ ? v C jest no it's about the best furi ii goi'n. How do I no. Well I no because I tried it! Me an severil la- S dies went down thare one evening, an n won of em wuz jest as full of mis- F - chief as a dorg is of fleeze. Thare j wertn't nobody but wounds down thare 1 an tluit old woman?she wuz the old- ^ est woa. in the crowd?shot down that s "shoot-the-shoot" an dared the rest of h us to follow. Now, I never cud stand n f a T\/\ anf n r* t V? q y? r\<?> t* n'lirr f llQ P hj uc uui urn, a.11 lxit; icoi- ?? u<< ill cut | ? same fix. Won bi won, with flutterin ! e< harts an inward fere, but outwardly; tl cam as a day in June, we all climed tl them stares, tuck a seet, tucked our a sky.jts down mitoy pertickler, tuck a a long breth, breathed a prayer that we ft mite not change persitions as we a made the "shoot," an that President t< Wright woodn't walk around that way it durin the performance. Then we turn- b ed loose an lit on the ground before b we had time to screech. An bless ? - -ii ~-e tl ratty: we iiKea it so wen same 01 ub like to wore the back bredth of our n skyrts out! tl I just wonder why don't ever mill fl fcave some kind of a place fur the a amusement of the operatives. Old Solomon node what he wuz a talkin o about when he sed "all wurk an no L o'ay makes Jack a dull boy." i guess P fir them daze the gals didn't work, or old Solomon woodn't a sed the same d fur "Jennie." h Now. wood a little' play ground fur ^ South "Wadesboro be jest grand: nit : don't cost much to fix up swings an n sich, an I believe ever woman in K Wadesboro wood set put a rose bush J or tree, an help Mr. Charlie Burns to ^ get a place like that fixed up. A keeper of the park wouldn't cost so 5< powerful much, an the improved health spi-'itfc oi ihe ox c-nttives woe a ? ( j me feel like doin more an better work; so. after all, t-vcii if money was the only consideration, it wood pay a big diverdend in dollers an cents, to the mill owners. ' Ever mill that lias ever | iriae sicii sez it pa.vt). 11 n p^ze | whare, it'll pay here, an I do hope it ' won't be long till South Wadesboro ! has a good nice large church, a nice play ground where they can have picnics an ice cream suppers an sich, | an then we'll work fur other improve| ments. Who will give two, three or fore ' akers of land for a park fur Wadesboro? And then wouldn't evervbodv enjoy fixin it up? My! Do you think I'm about to go crazy over Willowbrook park? Xo, I ain't nuther, but ! it makes me mitey ni crazy cause ev; ery town?especially Wadesboro? hasn't got one jest as purty, when its so easy. Well, I seen a good many old Tar Heels in Newberry. I shore wuz plez'ed to git a invite to supper won nite | at Mr, an Mrs. Doc Hartsell's. Mr. I Hardsell used to run the Baucon mill an lots of peepil will be glad to no j that him an his fambley air doin w*ell, an all in good helth. Mr. Doc is a brother of the Rev. J. W. Hartsell, of Cameron. If any of his old frends want to write to him, his address is 414 wrignt sr., :\ewt>erry, s. u. Thare's a Tar Heel preacher installed in O'Neall Street Methodist parsonage, that is a live wire. He is "five feet an sixteen inches hi, an every inch is God's man," he sez. His name is Rev. A. M. Gardner. He wuz born neer Long Pine, in Anson county, in a saw mill camp, an is a half brother to the Mr. Gardner, who wuz in the mill business with J. F. Thomas, at Morven, some time ago. Every denomination in Newberry loves Mr. and Mrs. Gardner, and I hain't never seen a church cum out like his'n has since he's bin thare. She wuz a Davis, an cum frum Anson too, I think. I wuz thare to preechin on Sunday j nite, an he had a kind of a preliminary ; sax vice, in which i tninK more n a i hundred peepil recited varces of J scripture: jest as fast as won wood stop, another wood start. I never seen nuthin like it before. It wern't no f wonder Mr. Gardner handed out sich a j hartfelt an sole stirin sarmont atter sich a response as that. I also had the plezyure of bein in- j vited to a entertainment on Fridayj tiite given by class Xo. 11, the men's ilass, of that same O'Xeall Street | iictKuui; l oniiua.) gv;xiuui. .\U?' SUHit;- j tody's goin to gasp for breth, when I: ?ay that thare air 100 members in that j )lass all grown men, some of em gray,! ;um even baldhedded, I reckin, an if hay ain't it ain't cause they ain't old ?nuff. Well that class, every one wuz j o axe somebody, that weren't a mem)er of the Sunday skule, an wuz also o trert the hull skule to ice creem ! vhich thav done. Thay had some fine iddresses too. j, The class is taught by Mr. Archie 1 tanknight, a young man that is still ; ingle an leep year neerlv haf gone! , J '4. 1 J I uuu l xvuuv* ?uau Liiciii gcUS aown hare mean by lettin him trot in! j ingle harness fur I am shore he wood , : J \-ork double all right, an pull more'n < tis half of the wagon. } I went to the Baptist church to ] lunday skule an preachin Sunday \ lornin. au shore injoyed it. The t 'hilathea class plum fills up its room < -nor a seet empty an no room lur lore! It ain't no little room, nuther. ii [r. J. M. Davis, the Newberry mill' c uperintendent, teaches this class, an t e farely preched a sarmont that \ lornin. The lesson wuz about Dives c n Lazrus. Mr. Davis is a hilv edicat- a i man, a well red man, an a deep \ linker; he told his class that mornin'! lat he didn't understand that lesson, n couldn't believe it like the Protest- s n church had it fixed up. He sed I I lr won thing he didn't believe heven s 21 hell wuz in site an speekin dis- c mce of each other, an didn't see how j ? wuz possible for pepil in heaven to a e liapy if sich wuz true. An he didn't ? eleve Dives an Abraham spoke to ach other. He sed he beleved that' t iat scripture had a deeper grander I lean in than had been accorded it, but i iat his ideas wuz so diffrunt to what ^ le lesson helps taught, he would not 1 dvance em to us. But he made a fine talk on the need 2 f bein prepared for deth, an sed ( azanis wuz the rich man, an Dives ore. .( Mrs. Hyla Knight Thomas, is presi- c ent of this flourishing class. Wades- ? oro will recommember her as Mr. 1 :illy Knight's widder. She is now m-? 15 v. .Teems' darter-in-law, an we air 1 t litey proud of her an our boy Cecil.,1 ryler sed she won't never furgit Mr. o ohn Gulledge's kindness an help I 'hen Mr. Knight wuz sick. Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Wesson nnr Dn-in-law an darter, has got the fin- s st little boy that ever sed "gamina." r ;ver time he called me that, I run to .: i f the glass to see if I wuz gray, an felt ' j of my back to sec if it hurt an pado ' i per tickler notice to see if I wuz roo' maticky; but somehow or other I jest ' can't feel old to save my life. I used to have fur away visions of gittin old in a graceful, happy way, an cud see myself settin in a low rocker in a corner by the fire, an knittin jStockins fur my grandchildren. But sumhow them visions don't git no j closer, specially when T think how T jshot down that "shoot-the-snoot!" 1 Then, stocking air too cheep to waste time a knittin. I'd ruther croshay hand bags an belts an jabbos an sich like. I Mr. and Mrs. Will Thomas, more Tar Hels, air well known in Anson county an peepil will be glad to no Ithay air doin wen an air jest as aevI i lish as ever. Mrs. Will is sister to the "Burns Brothers" who run a grocer store here. Thay've got a little fore year old gal that cum to thare house 10 yere atter they thought the stork had quit comin. Thay got jest one [more, a boy 14 yere old. Two boys, older, air ded.

RICHESOX TO DIE FOR KILLING GIRL ; Foss Withholds Clemency From For- j mer Preacher?Accountable for His Deed. Boston, Mass., May 16.?Clarence V. j T. Richeson s last hope of escaping j the death chair next week for the I murder of Avis Linnell, of Hyannis, < expired tonight when Gov. Foss an- i nounced that he would not refer J Richeson's petition for commutation ' of sentence to the' executive council. The statement from the governor f followed closely the filing of the re- j ports to the special insanity commis- j >ion which declared the condemned | I ?> nan sane, although subject to fits ofj. ivsterical insanity. The commissi j ^ 'ound that Richeson was sane at the; :ime of the murder and that he is | f >ane at present. i j In the death chamber at Charles-1 own the prisoner has borne himself j j. :alrnly since he was transferred from j ^ he Charles street jail Tuesday. It! j. vas apparent that he still hoped that j jilemency would be extended to him, i jmd it was believed today this alone 1 vas keeping up his spirits. j T? n "XAnrnffp. ^ .. p The statement issued by Gov. Foss ihows that the alienists found that: , i ? licheson's family was afflicted very! ^ generally with insanity and that the ^ :ondemned man himself is a neurotic, ^ l somnambulist, and a neurasthenic md subject to hysterical insanity. The i itatement follows: . t "Executive clemency will not be ex- i ended in the case of Clarence V. T. I ^icheson. The prisoner was sentenced! I ipon his own confession for a crime! it o nr\nn 1 a f n f r? r* tf l >\ iin 11 n liiipuooiuiv: mat any lormal man could commit. ! ^ "After his confession and sentence: l plea of insanity was set up by his ! ^ counsel and strongly supported by af-1 . idavits extending over his life. The ^ :haracter of those affidavits loft no ^ >ther course for the governor than to j submit these and the prisoner himself'^, o an examination by our leading ^ ilienists. in order to protect the com- ; a nonwealth from the charges that the j nan was actually insane when the, r i v [eed was committed as well as at the | >resent time. i ^ Of Emotional Natnre. '"The evidence shows that Riche-1 on's family is heavily afflicted with j nsanity; that lie himselt is a neuro-, < ic, a somnambulist and a neurasthe- j ; nie; that, he is subject to extreme -mo| tional disturbances, marked by loss of j memory, which two alienists have : diagnosed as hysterical insanity, one physician adding the alternative as hysterical delirium and the majority nniriinri inr1ir>a thnt the attacks are I hysterical attacks marked by emo: tional disturbances of brief dufation, ! with loss of memory during the attack i 'and for a varying period following it. "The evidence, however, while clearly revealing these attacks, indi-: i cates that his crime was not commit! ted by him during such an attack. Accountable for Crime. "Therefore, while there is some diI vergency of opinion among the alienists as to whether these attacks in- \ dicate actual insanity, there is siiffi-! j cient ground for the conclusion that I bp anfnn71 tphit* fr>r hie r*rimo 11 11 rl that the exercise of executive clemency in this instance wouid be contrary to the public good. "The affidavits and medical advices as to Richeson's unfavorable heredity, his lapses of consciousness and his attacks of delirium are too \olumin-: jous to include in this statement and nnt siiit.Arl for Hrm "The alienists referred to are Dr. Edw. B. Lane and Dr. Isador Coritat, acting for the defense; Dr. L. Vernon Briggs, acting at the personal lequest of the governor; and Drs. ilamy II. Steedman, Georke T. Tuttle and Henry P. Frost, acting as a commission for j the commonwealth." imam m ui tai i tjr Infant mortality is the most sensl- : tive Index we possess of social welfare of sanitary administration, espe- j cially under urban conditions.
