The charges against Sheng Hsuan Puai were formulated by the people of Sze Ohuen, Hu Peh and Hu Nan. Sheng negotiated the loans for the nationalization of the railways and has been pleading advocate of the anti-provincial policy, which is re garded as largely responsible fot the revolution. The inhabitants of ‘those provinces have shown strong opposition to the proposed railway loan. At the meeting of the As sembly Wednesday members urged that they were not against foreign loans, but against the methods em ployed and the result which were tantamount to robbing China who had already begun the railways in selling them out to foreigners.

A wireless report from Hankow re cently indicates that the Imperialist and revolutionary forces are already close fo “each "dfhPr. Reruhrtternary sympathizers excuse the lack of in itiative on the part of Gen. Li Yuan Heng, the rebel commander by cred iting him with a deep laid plan to permit Yin Tchang to enter the Hu Peh bordee pass an then cut him off. But mifitary men credit neither commander with great ability. Un doubtedly the palace is urging the war minister forward because of the dire necessity of a prompt victory. Should he fail to fight or lose his first serious engagement there appears no hope of checking the revolt. Trains go dowi to thf South laden with soldiers and equipment, but they do not return. The troops set forth without sufficient ammunition then quantities Of ammunition fol low but no commissary supplies. There are rumors of mutinies re treats and desertions. The moral po sition of the rebels ill stronger than that of the Imperialists. They could lose a battle without a complete de feat, having other cities to rally a- rpund. But the defeat of Yin Tchang in view of the wavering of troops ev erywhere, would leave the dynasty unable to cope with the situation In a single province. It is commonly reported In Peking that the Imper ial family Is ready for flight. The road to Jehol, 115 miles northeast of Peking Is atudded with troops. Other rumors designate the foreign settlement in Tien Tslen as the pos sible refuge. • V.' 7 i... \ YjL. . + + + ■ County Fair. At Fayetteville, N. C. R. T.

The story goes that a man of Ruth- erfordton county hired a boy to work for him, or rather the boy was bound t him. The man was of a rather penurious disposition and did not provide for the boy very suita ble clothing. Finally the youngster prevailed on his employer to purchase a new suit of clothes and this was done but shortly after, the employer became Incensed over trivial offence, an^^o- Ing to the house of a neighbor he secured his assistance awd went on the trail of the boy.

They then forced him to remove the clothing and gave him his choice of swim ming Broad Rivef at that point, or taking seventy-five lashes The youth decided to try the swim, and had started when the two men opened fire on him. It is said that several shots w.ere fired from pistols and that the boy sank. He was never heard of or seen af ter that but later the skeleton was found further down the river. It is further stated that the man who first had the boy hired died a short time after this and on his death bed confessed to the crime, and stated that the other man had since moved to South Carolina. SNAKE CHOKES CHILD. Teacher Unwinds Reptile ami Whips It to Death. New Philadelphia, O., Oct. 25.—A '.acksnage five feet long colled sev eral times around her neck, nearly killed Lillian Porcher, aged eight, of Port Washington, Pa., while she was at play during recess at school. The child was choked unconscious and is in a critical condition. A teacher pulled the snake from the chiid's neck and killed it. The little girl and a companion were playing in a building in the school yard when the snake dropped from the rafters and colled around her neck. She tried to dash the reptile to the ground but it gripped tightly and she fell struggling. The other child danced up and down In horror and screamed at the top of her voice. This attracted the teacher. When the latter entered the building the Porcher child black in the face, was unconscious. The teach er seized the snake by the neck and unwinding It whipped it to |deceB against the wall.

ZUt “The statement given by Gov. Blease at Barnwell Tuesday contains nothing new to me; for-It is only a rewrite of a letter 1 wrote him re cently, and in which I wrote nothing to lead him to believe that I had any intention of doing otherwise in the approaching gubernatorial contest, than I stated to you when you were here a few weeks ago; that is that I Intend to remain strictly neutral in the campaign,” said Senator B. R. Tillman Wednesday, at his home In Trenton to a representative of The Chronli'fe: “I could not afford to take sides in the contest for both Gov. Blease and Judge Jones are personal and pollti- il (yiendj of mine, and I have told Blease that. I also told him that. If 1 saw reason to take sides against him at any time I certainly would not knife him, but would tell him before I told any one else.” Senator Tillman smiled several times, and winked during the read ing of the article to him by tbe newspaper man—he somehow had missed getting his paper Wednes day. "It Is going to be a close fight,” he said "and Blease Is losing no time. He is campaigning now and has been for months. “He is keeping before the people and he is making friends, while fudge Jones is seemingly doing noth ing yet. The newspapers, somehow always have some kind of a story about Judge Jones. “There are two things In Blease's statement that he is mistaken in though. “One is with regard to Richards being in a frame-up to bring Judge lones out to oppose him. Why, 1 know that Richards was aeriously considering entry Into tbe race him self. It has been his ambition to be governor and be thought thft, with my condition—supposed to be liable o drop off at any moment—if he ould beat Blease and be governor, he would be in line for promotion ind be able to beat any other man; and he was one of the most surprised men in the State when Judge Jones announced himself. “The other error Blease makes is In saying that I was about to pub lish a letter indorsing him In 1910, but was persuaded from It by a news paper. ‘I did write a letter such as he speaks of, but I did not publish it. I changed my mind, and no newspaper nor man connected with a newspaper had anythlg to do with that letter not being published after it waa written. However I voted for Blease in the second primary, I voted for Richards in the first.” Commending further on the silu- tlon or as he railed It, “muddle,’’ the senator said that because he had proclaimed neutrality it did not fol low that he must maintain an armed neutrality. “But,” he said, “It Tom Felder or any one else goes before the legisla ture and proves—actually proves— that Blease is, or has bee®, crooked. I’ll take sides quick and fight him; for South Carolina Is ft proud State and will not stand for rottenness If she knows it,” “Senator Gov. Blease says In his statement that there are no differ ences between you and him. is that true?” was asked by the newspaper man. “There are no friendly, personal differences between uft I suppose that’s what he meant.’’' The senator said that h« does not know who Is responsible for the can didacy of Judge Jones but that ke had no idea but what Judge Jonfee told the truth when Judge Jones said he had been urged by letters and men all over the State to run, and that he had a laudable ambition to be governor and “in line of promo tion” for the senatorial tog* “If any thing should happen to me.’' “Don’t you think the attitude of. the governor toward him a# ebl justice, and the clashes wfth him the governor has precipitated had something to do with his annonnee- ment?” was asked. “Why, if a man, has any spirit and pugnacity In him at all I should think he would want to get at the other fellow, nnder such clrcumstan ces—meet him on his own plane— and fight him. Don’t yon? I know I would. .“And that’s Ju«t what-Jones has got to do if he expqcts to win-fight him. He has got to take the stamp and fight—and he’s got to use Blease tactics. If he does that and makes hie fight on Blease’s record, he vrttl At Kill Devil, N. C., Orville Wright In his glides Wednesday in a fifty mile gale went aloft and re mained virtually stationary nearly ten minutes,^ and maintained an al titude of one hundred and fifty feet. The record-breaking “flight” was the seventeenth of the series that be* gan Wednesday when therain ceased. The first glide lasted only £4 seconds, each lengthening until the final one. When Lorift Wright and Alexand er Ogilvde, the English aviator, brought out the machine for the In itial flight the wind gauge showed that the gale was 35 miles and fresh ening. Sand carried by tbe wind pelted the aviators, the tiny particles cutting like small shot. In the opin ion of the experiments no more try ing weather conditions, under which to make the test of the machine, could be found. - -The glider - waa- equipped rear rudder of 24-foot spread. In front, to preserve the balance, a 10- pound bag of sand was swung on the end of a rod extending eight feet in front of the aviator’s seat. Tbs ailerons, or balancing wings on the sides of the machine were adjusted and Orville Wright lifted himself In to the seat. “Le* it go" he shouted. Lorin Wright and Ogilvte thrust the glider Into the face of the riaing gale and It shot up. Again and again this was repeated until for almost tan mlnutee Wright soared like a brood ing buzzard on the crest of s fifty- mile gale. Orrille Wright admitted bis satis faction with the reaulta and declared the conditions nnder which the flight was made were unusually severe. The success of the experiment Is under stood to mark a long step forward In the science of aviation and to point the way toward solving the problem cf automatically preserving the equil ibrium of beavler-tban-alr machines. — Insurance of the Peneteatiary, Mb*** AU to be Fined by the When It Meets.
