BIG FARMERS' MEETING.
To Consider Taking Up Demonstra-tion
Work in Guilford.
An important meeting of Guilford
county farmer s will be held in the
court house in Greer.si-oro on Satur-day,
the 13th last, beginning at 11
o'clock A. M. The purpose of the
meeting is to consider and discuss
the advisalility-oi tailing up in this
county farm demonstration work ui!-
der the general supervisee of the
United States Department of Agricul-ture.
Mr. C. R. Hudson, a special
agent of the department, will t* pres-ent
and explain the scope and pur-pose
of the farmers' co-operative dem-onstration
work. The county commis-sioners
win te present, and in addi-tion
to every progressive farmer in
the county, all the public school
teachers are requested to te present.
Mr. Hudson met with the county
commissioners yesterday afternoon
and explained the movement In de-tail.
The commissioners are favor-ably
impressed with the plan and
have agreed to donate a few hundred
dollars toward the expense of demon-stration
work in this county. After
the work is started the L'nted States
Department of Agriculture will bear
at least half the expense.
At the meeting on the 13th, should
the farmers desire to enter into the
movement, two or three good farm-ers,
or perhaps only one, will te 6e-.
lected to have charge of the work.
It is planned to have from 80 to 100
demonstration farms throughout the
county, and any farmer who may de-sire
to enter the work may do so
absolutely without expens", either di-rectly
on indirectly.
In explaining the movement. Mr.
Hudson says the work has been in
operation in the South for the past
six years and the farmers who know
by experience Bay it is by far the
best and most practical thing that
has ever come to them in the way of
better agriculture. Last year 3,000
farmers engaged in the work, and this
year it Is expected that there will be
at least 50,000 throughout the South.
Last year the work was carried on
in eight counties in North Carolina,
with an average of 100 demonstration
farms in each county.
The hverage yield of corn on the
demonstration farms in North Caro-lina
last year was a little more than
double the average on other farms
In the same counties. The yield of
cotton was not so great, but was
about a third greater than the yield
on other farms. The coat per bushel
of corn or pound of cotton shows that
these larger yields were marie at lesa
cost per unit than on other farms In
the same counties.
This year 16 counties in the state
will engage in the work.
Meeting of Farmers.
The farmers of Guilford county are
invited to attend an Important meet-ing
of farmers to be held at the
court house in Greensboro at 11
o'clock A. M. on Saturday. March 13.
This will be one of the most profit-able
meetings of the kind ever held
in the county, and the board of coun-ty
commissioriters hopes to see a
large attendance. Mr. C R. Hud-son,
of' Iredell, state agent of the V.
S. Department of Agriculture, will be
present. 1

MEETING OF COMMISSIONERS.
Matters cf Interest to the County-
Superior Court Jurors Drawn.
The March meeting of the board
of county commissioners was held
Monday and yesterday, when the
usual amount of routine and special
business was transacted. Chairman
Davidson and Dr. W. G. Bradshaw
were absent from yesterday's meet-ing,
having gone to Raleigh at the
request of the board to look after
the county's interest in the proposed
bill for the establishment of a re-corder's
court in Greensboro.
Monday afternoon the highway com
mission and county commissioners
held a Joint meeting to receive a
petition from a big delegation of cit-izens
requesting that the Brown Sum-mit
and Gethsemane road te macad-amised
to the Rocklngham county
line. After some discussion, it was
decided that the boards would desig-nate
no other roads to be macada-mized
at the present, but the dele-gation
was assured that the matter
will be taken up as soon as the work
in hand is completed. It is hoped
that definite action can be taken in
five or six months.
Petitions were received by the
county commissioners for a new road
in Morehead and a new road in Fen-tress
township and for a change in
a public road in Washington town-ship.
Yesterday the- commissioners spent
some time in a conference with Mr.

CHARGED WITH BIGAMY.
NO BIDS RECEIVED.
Nobody Wanted to Buy the Daily In-dustrial
News.
For the third time the Daily In-dustrial
News was offered for sale
at the court house door Monday, but
no jblds were received and the sale
was declared off. It is understood
that Judge Boyd will issue an or-der
transferring the property from
the custody of the United States court
to the mortgagees, who will take such
steps as thev may see proper to save
themselves from further financial los
in the enterprise. The mo''t?agees,
who endorsed a note for $8,000 and
took a mortgagee ou all the property
and effects of the Industrial News as
security, are: Judge S. I!. Adams.
Judge R. M. Douglas, and .Messrs. J.
M. Mlllikan, E. C. Duncan. C. D. Ben-bow
and R. D. Douglas.
It is not impossible that there
may be litigation among some of the
stockholders of the Industrial News
before the business is finally dis-posed
of. There are mutterings of
bad faith on the part of some, and
whispers of things that ought to be
explained by others.
The first attempt to sell the de-funct
Republican newspaper was by
the medium of sealed bids to te
opened January 29th. when Mr. E. C.
Duncan was the only bidder, naming
a price of $15,000. with the proviso
that the sum of $3,212 advanced the
receiver to meet the running ex-penses
should be admitted as a prior
claim. Judge Boyd refused to con-firm
this sale and ordered a sale at
public auction February 15th. In the
meantime the paper had suspended
publication and the highest bid offer-ed
was $5,000, this being made by
Mr. Duncan. The court refused to
entertain this bid and ordered another
sale, naming $8,088 as the upset bid,
this being the amount necessary to
cover a mortgage and interest on
the property. .

Serious Offense Charged Against
Young Man in This City.
Mr. Charles F. Huber. the pianist
at a local theatre, was arrested by
Chief of Police Neelley Monday o:i
a warrant sent here from Richmond.
Va.. charging lum with bigamy. The
warrant was sworn out by Huter's
first, wife, from whom he had obtain-ed
a divorce from bed and board.
Huber was married in Petersburg.
Va.. four or five months ago to a re-fined
and educated young woman, and
later the couple came to Greensboro.
It appears that the first Mrs. Huber
is in New York, and learning of her
husband's marriage, caused the war-rant
for his arrest to be issued.
Huber has conducted himself well
in Greensboro, making a good impres-sion
on the people with whom he has
come in contact. He was dumbfound-ed
when the warrant was served on
him and stoutly mainatlned that
there must be some mistake. He was
under the impression that the divorce
he bad obtained in Virginia gave
him the right to re-marry and ex-hibited
clippings from Richmond pa-pers
which gave no indication that
the divorce was not absolute. He al-so
had in his possession a copy of
the decree of the divorce granted
him.
Owing to his gentlemanly bearing
and the fact that he has the sympa-thy
of the officials and other Greens-boro
people who are acquainted with
him. Huber was not locked up. an of-ficer
being detailed to keep him in
custody. Huber has retalred connwl
and hopes to be ab'.o to extueate
hi'nself from the trouble in a few
days. His present wife is stand!.r-'
by him loyally.

VALUABLE JEWEL8 RECOVERED.
Articles Stolen in Southern Pine
Found in Greensboro.
Yesterday Chief of Police Neelley
delivered to the Southern Express
Company nearly $3,000 worth of jew-elry
that was stolen from the com-pany
at Southern Pines three weeks
ago. The robbery created a distinct
sensation and stories of the crime
were printed in papers all over the
country. The Jewelry had beeu ship-ped
by a New York firm to a South-ern
Pines Jewelry store.
It 1B evident that the Jewerly dis-covered
in this city was either lost
or thrown away by the thief. The
box containing the jewels was found
by a young negro boy last Saturday
on East Washington stre -t and show-ed
that it had been exposed to the
weather for some time. The little
negro divided the Jewelry among sev-eral
of his frier.ds, and a handsome
diamond ring came into the posses-sion
of a girl employed as a domes-tic
by Mrs. T. H. Mayo. Mrs. Mayo
noticed the sparkler on the girl's fin-ger
Monday morning, and suspecting
something was wrong. Instituted an
investigation. She interviewed a lo-cal
jeweler and notified her brother,
Mr. O. F. Pearce, who called in the
police.
The Investigation thus set on foot
resulted in locating a quantity of
valuable Jewelry in the possession of
a negro youth residing on the corner
of East Sycamore and Clinton streets.
The boy told a straightforward story
of having found the gems and evi-denced
no disposition to conceal or
evade anything in connection with
the matter. It was evident that he
did not realize the value of his find.
Within a few steps of the spot
where the colored boy picked up the
casket of jewefh Mr. Harry S. Don-nell
found several diamond rfn?s and
other articles of jewelry yesterday
shortly after noon. He was on his
way to dinner when he saw a ring
lying in the sand near his front gate,
and upon investigation found 14 other
articles under the leaves near the
fence. He carried th Jwelry to police
headquarters, where it was identified
aud turned over to an official of the
Southern Express Company.
The Southern Express Company
has rewarded Chief Neelley, Mrs.
Mayo and Mr. Donnell for their as-sistance
in recovering the stolen prop-erty.
It is believed that the jewerly was
dropped by a strange negro who went
Into a South Elm street pawnshop a
few days after the robbery and offered
to sell a handsome diamond ring.
The proprietor was suspicious and
notified Chief Neelley, and upon the
appearance of the officer the negro
ran down East Washington street.
HARDWOOD FACTORY BURNED.
Fire Early Saturday Morning Caused
Loss of $40,000.
Fire that was discovered shortly af-ter
5 o'clock Saturday morning de-stroyed
the plant and equipment of
the Greensboro Hardwood Manufac-turing
Company, located just off East
Washington street, along the line of
the North Carolina railroad. The loss
Is estimated at about $40,000, with
insurance amounting to $21,000. The
fire had made such headway when
the alarm was sounded that the fire-men,
who responded promptly, were
unable to do any effective work in
checking the progress of the flames.
' The factory was located in a two-story
bu;lding. known as the old Mc-
Mahon factory, and was equipped
with improved hardwood working ma
chinery. The equipment Is practi
cally a total loss. A large quantity
of raw material and material In pro-cess
of manufacture was destroyed,
as was- a carload of finished product
that was to have been shipped Sat-urday.
Th:; business was owned by
a stock company and managed by
Messrs. W. O. Riddick and O'. C.
