MEXICO IS AGAIN
INVOLVED IN WAR
WHERE THE FIRST BATTLE WILL !
LIKELY TAKE PLACE IN THIS
LATEST REVOLUTION,?
WHERE WILL IT ENI).
The first battle of the latest Mexican
revolution, started last week by Gen.
Villa against authority of Carranza,
first chief of the constitutionalists,
probably will .occur at the old battle
grounds of either Torfeon or Zacatecas.
Gen. Villa, forced to abandon his
expedition in assistance of the Maytorena
revolt in Sonora, prepared to
rush his troops south from Juarez and
Chihuahua City to meet what was reported
as a strong force of Carranza
soldiers moving north from Aguas
Calientes and Zactecas. All was astir
in Chihuahua, tho state which for
four years and in almost as many revolutions,
has furnished the greatest
and most cflicient force of lighting
men..
According to official estimates Villa
controls nearly 40,000 troops. Maytorena
has mobilized about 5,000 troops
in Sonera. They arc mostly Yaqui Indians.
Efforts, it is said, are being
made by the Carranza element to en-1
list the services of the Mayos, a rival
tribe, who outnumber the Yaquis in
the west coast country. Vila also
probably will he able to recruit many
troops from Purango state, where he
has operated frequently.
Carranza's forces comprise the unified
forces of Gen. Pablo Gonzales, his
eastern divisional commander, probably
numbering about 30,000 men, and
those of the west coast troops under
Obrcgon, which participated in the
entry of the national capital.
Advices from Vera Cruz told of a
panicky feeling among residents there
Conditions in Meviro C!itv similnrlvl
Ave re described as critical. Many con- {
fiscatons of property have occurred,
against which the Brazilian minister,
in behalf of the United States, has
made vigorous representations. Promises
have been made of an investigation,
but the offenses have been repeated.
Our Troops May Remain.
Despite the announcement that
plans for the withdrawal of American
troops from Mexico would not be
changed, officials in Washington do
not expect these plans to be carried
out until the new controversy has
been adjusted. It was pointed out
that as no date ever had been fixed
for the evacuation, and that the matter
would be held in abevance indefinitely
if no further announcement
came from the White House or State
Department.
Do Not Hold Eggs Too Long.
The department advises the farmer
who specializes in marketing eggs to
market his product frequently. The'
farmer often makes use of an egg |
case in which to keep his eggs and
carry them to market. Sometimes he |
owns the case and sometimes it is!
furnished by the storekeeper. Often
the case is one holding 80 dozen eggs,
and as there is a tendency to wait until
the case is filled, which takes considerable

one dreaded disease that science has |

that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure I

being a constitutional disease requires
a constitutional treatment. Hall's

directly upon the blood and mucus

Cotton Instead of Jute.
The substitution of cotton for jute
bagging, as a means of consuming 1,000,000
bales of cotton, was the plan
outlined last week at a conference of
business men from Southern States
at Atlanta, Ga. The statement was
made that large shipping concerns
throughout the South already have
taken up the matter on account of the
increase of the price of jute, an Indian
product. It was declared one fer
tilizer concern is trying to place an
order for 50,000,000 yards of cotton
bagging as a substitute for jute.
The conference was called to perfect
plans for the oiganization of a national
cotton consuming associa- *
tion. W. C. Mansfield of Atlanta was ^
named temporary and permanent ^
chairman. '
PRESIDENT HARRISON
SOUTHERN RAILWAY
Will Be One of the Speakers at the
Fourth American Road Congress
On November 9th.
Regarding the public roads as an
indispensable part of the transpotation
system of the country, supplementing
its railroads and waterways,
President Harrison of the Southern
Railway Company, takes an active interest
in the good roads movement.
He is Vice-President of the American
Highway Association and will be one
of the speakers at the Fourth American
Road Congress in Atlanta, the
week of November 9th.
Speaking of the relation of the
country highway to the railroad, Mi".
Harrison said: "Whatever may be
the linal destination of the farm products,
their first movement must be
s
over the country road and if the farmer
is to receive the largest measure of
benefit from good roads the policy
should be adopted of improving1 those
highways which radiate from market
towns and shipping stations and over
which the farmers must haul their
products. The profit which will be
earned by the farmer may depend
largely upon the condition of the road
from his farm to the shipping station.
Statistics complied by the U. S. Department
of Agriculture show that
the cost of hauling farm products to
shipping points over bad roads is a
disproportionately large part of the
total expense of their transportation
to market. This is not always fully
realized by the farmer, but if he will
take into account the time of himself
and his team, and the wear and tear
on his vehicle and harness made necessary
by a large number of trips
with smaller loads, he will find that
the cost mounts up very fast. Another
item of the cost of bad roads
to the farmer, which is often overlook
ed, is that he must haul his products
to markets when the roads are not in
their best condition with little regard
as to whether prices are favorable or
whether hauling at that time interferes
with work on the farm. With
good roads he can not only haul heavier
loads in shorter time., but, except
as to perishable commodities, he can
market his products when prices are
most favorable and can do his hauling
when it is most convenient and even
when the ground is too wet for work
in the fields.
"The fnanifold advantages of an im
proved highway in reducing the cost
of drayage, faciliating social intercourse,
promoting school and church
attendance, expediting rural mail service,
increasing the value of farm
lands, and promoting agricultural development
back from the railroads are
so great that they need but to be
enumerated to present a convincing
argument in favor of road improvement.
"Since several .years ago when the
Southern Railway Company, in conjunction
with the U. S. Department
of Agriculture and State and local authorities,
operated over its lines a
good roads train, carrying machinery
and lecturers, and building at central
points object-lesson roads, there has
been very substantial progress in good
roads improvement throughout the
South. This was accelerated in 1911
by the operation of another good road
train in co-operation with the U. S.
Department of Agriculture and the
American Highway Association. The
interest of Southern people in good
roads has been thoroughly aroused
and in many localities the country
highways have been highly improved
and are being adequately maintained.
"I think it is fortunate for the
South that the American Good Road
Congress of 1914 is to be held in Atlanta.
This will unquestionably be
one of the most important gatherings
ever held in the Southern States. It
will bring together the official heads
of the State Highway Departments,
the foremost experts in road construct
ion and maintenance, and other leaders
in the good roads movement in
each State for an exchange of ideas
as to the best methods of financing
road construction and building and
maintaining the best types of country
highways. Its exhibits of road machinery
and of model roads will be
highly educational and it can not but
serve to increase interest in the good
roads movement throughout the
South."

SORDID LIFE STORY
TOLDJN COURT
KI>. G. CECEN, LOCAL MERCHANT
i AN!) ELSIE MOLEB* A GERMAN
GIRL FOUND GUILTY.
A husband and father infatuated
with another woman, a deserted wife
and two small children and a fallen
woman, foreign born, friendless and
alone, whose male relatives are now
units of the Kaiser's gray clad hosts
on seme far flung European battle
line, formed the' principal characters
in a drama from life, whose sordid
story, under the merciless probe of
the law, was unfolded in Superior
Court in Wilmington, N. C., one day
last week. And after the legal formalities
had been gone through with, Judge
Allen departed from the cold ,
-i' ii. '
v uoLuiiis v)i me couris, and like some
humane father, blended humanity
with justice and painstakingly laid a
foundation upon which those involved ,
may begin to build anew. n
Ed. G. Green, a local merchant, and
Elsie Molcr, a German girl, who has ^
made her home in this country since
she was 14 years of age, were found c
guilty by the jury which heard the c
case, on a charge of living in illicit reI
lations.
The testimony brought forth the
fact that Green had left his wife and 1
two children, had purchased a house 1
on the outskirts of ihe city and had j
installed the Moler girl there. Their i
relations on this plane had existed i
for the past two years.
The case was hard fought, with W. ,,
1\ Gafford, Esq., representing Green; t
Woodus Kellum, Esq., the Moler girl, \
and County Solicitor Geo. L. Peschau
assisting Solicitor Homer L. Lyon in
the prosecution. The selection of a (
jury and the taking of the testimony j
took up the greater part of the day t
in court, but when the case was finallv 1
c
turned over to the jury it did not re- j
quire long for them to bring in a ver- f
diet of guilty. s
Judge Allen in discussing the case,
placed the blame upon Green, but stat
ed that for the sake of his wife and
children he desired to be as lenient t
with him as possible. After consider- I
ing the matter from all angles, he t
1 finally continued prayer for judgment i
against Green for a term of two years t
provided he furnished bond in the sum
e r.nn * -
v/x lu appear irom court to court
and show that he was conducting him- p
self properly toward his wife and chil- r
dren. . . 11
Elsie Moler, whose story as told by
I her lawyer, is a particularly sad one,
was paroled in the care of the Salvaj
tion Army for the time being. She ex- 1
pressed to Judge Allen her desire to 1
lead a better life, and several times J
through the course of the trial broke A
| down and wept. *
Hef lawyer told the court her story, c
as she had related it to him. She came
to America at the age of 14 from her ?
home in Germany, as. a nursemaid in *
I the family of a distant relative. They
lived in New York. She continued in
! this capacity for two years, and then *
became a manicurist at which posit- ^
ion she worked for 18 months. Coming *
home from a theatre one night she c
I found her apartment house locked up.
With very little money in her pocket,
; she tried to lind a respectable place \
1 to spend the night. A man and wo- r
: man, seemingly kind-hearted and cap- 1
able people, offered to assist her. They ?
took her to what they said was a hotel 1
and three, against her will, forced her 'c
into a life of shame. Since that time 1
she has drifted from one city to another,
a human derelict.
NEW RAILROAD LINE TO CONNECT
ANDREWS.
With the I'ort of Charleston in About
Two Weeks More.
A span of less than 14 miles, over
which number of crews are engaged
in laying rails at the rate of a mile
and a half to two miles a day is all
that remains to be completed on the
Charleston Northern railroad between
Charleston and Andrews. It is stated
that the rail laying over the entire
line will have been accomplished by
October 15, with the exception of what
remains to be completed on the Santee
and Cooper river bridges, on which
the work is being rushed toward com
pletion with November 1 as the probable
date on which freight traffic will
begin.
Big Santee Bridge.
The big steel and concrete bridge
piers are being sunk in the Santee
and Cooper rivers with great rapidity,
and at the Santee the superstructure
is already being put in place in readiness
for the American Bridge Company,
who will lay and connect the
steel girders over the span of 584 feet
completing the work of the bridge.
Thirty days is the time which this
work will consume. The greater portion
of the wood work of the big
bridge which is about a mile long, has
been practically completed, about 5,000
feet being already in use by the
construction trains.
