Rev. Or. J. L White. Rev. Charles

left yesterday for Louivsille, Ky., to
attend the Southern Baptist Conven-tion.
Mr. J. Russell Klapp.
in the day interfered with the at-tendance
of many people from the
country and kept away a number of
veterans who had planned to partic-ipate
in the exercises. At 11 o'clock
the line of march formed at the city
hall and moved to Greene Hill ceme-tery,
where the graves of the dead
soldiers were cohered -with flowers.
The line of march was farmed in the
following order: Speaker's carriage,
carriages containing officets and mem
bers of the Daughters of the Confed-eracy,
veterans in automobiles, the
Gate City Guards, Children of the
Confederacy attired in Confederate
colors and bearing flowers. The chil-dren
rode in wagons of the fire de-partment
and presented a pretty pic-ture.
The marshals were: Mr. S.
Clay Williams, chief: Mr. and Mrs.
R. D. Douglas, .Mr. E. W. Copeland
and Miss McKenzie. Mr. O. B. White
and Miss May Hendrix, Mr. C. A.
Hincs and .Miss Marjorle Long, Mr.
Wyatt Long and Miss Douglas Hen-drix,
Mr. H. W. Nash and Miss Ly-man
Grimsley and Mr. W. C. McLean
and Miss Merrimon.
After the exercises at the cemetery
the address or the occasion was deliv-ered
in the Grand opera house by
Col. W. W. Lumpkin, of Columbia, S.
C, the speaker being introduced by
Rev. Melton Clark, chaplain of Guil-ford
("amp of United Confederate Vet-erans.
Colonel Lumpkin charmed his
hearers' with, an address that breathed
the spirit of true oratory. It was re-plete
with many historical incidents
that brought afresh to the minds of
the old people in the audience stirrlw
incidents in the trying days of the
'60s. He paid a beautiful tribute to
the valor of the men in the field and
the heroism of the brave women of
the Confederacy.
The speaker asserted that the chief
aim of the Confederate soldiers now
living should be to teach the children
of the South that the men who wore
the gray fought for what was right.
He declared that the Southern states
followed the path of duty in seceding
from the union, and the children of
this and future generations should be
taught to revere the Confederate sol-diers
as heroes and not rebels.
Following the address of Col. Lump-kin
and a musical selection, crosses
of honor were conferred upon a num-ber
of old soldiers.
After the formal exercises had
heeu concluded, the veterans march-ed
to the Auditorium skating rink,
where they were the guests of the
Daughters of the Confederacy at a
Brunswick stew, prepared and served
- today with a personal faith as your captain,
too?
"And may we each see Him face
to face when we cross over to rest
under the shade of the trees? Can
one of you afford to miss this for-ever?"

and manliness.' "

Setters and Pointers Must Not Run
at Large in Breeding Season.
Following is the dog law passed
by the recent legislature that applies
to Guilford anrt several other coun-ties:
"Section 1. From and after the
passage of this act it shall be un-lawful
for the owner or any person
having the care of any pointer or
setter dog to permit the same to
run at large unmuzzled during the
breeding season of quail, namely,
from April 1 to September 1 of any
year.
"Section 3. When any pointer or
setter dog shall be found ranging un-muzzled
in the field or woods it
shall be prima facie evidence that
the owner of such pointer or setter
dog has violated the provisions of
this act, and upon conviction such
owner or his agent shall be deemed
guilty of a misdemeanor and shall be
fined not more than fifty dollars or
imprisoned not longer than thirty
(days.
"Section 2. This act shall apply
only to the counties of Guilford. For-syth.
Iredell, Moore, Yancey, Transyl-vania,
Davidson, Durham, Greene and
Johnston.
"Section 4. All laws and clauses of
laws in conflict with this act are here
by repealed.
"Ratified this the 8th day of March
A. D. 1909."
The object of the law, of course,
is to protect young birds during the
breeding season.
REFUSED TO WORK ROAOS.
A number of Citizens to be Tried j
Here This Afternoon.
A number of citizens from Madison,'
Monroe, Friendship and High Point
townships are in the city today as
witnesses and defendants in cases
brought against persons charged with
violating Guilford's new road law by
refusing to obey summonses to work
the roads. The cases are set far trial
before Justice D. H. Collins and are
to be called in the county court house'
at 2 o'clock this afternoon. Dp to
noon warrants had been served on
the following:
Madison township—Jim Copprldge.
Eddie Coppridge, Earle Greene, Hil-ary
Greene. Newton Chrismon. W.
L. Lambeth and Henry Lambeth.
Monroe—J. F. Davis. J..P. Warren.
David King. A. D. Chandler. W. H.
Faucett, Ruffin Lucas, W. T. Wyrick,
A. N. Schoolfield, J. L. Jones. V. O.
Smith, Charlie Brown, colored, and
Newton Thacker, colored.
Friendship—Green Kidd and Wil-lie
Kid.
High Point—Walter Stout, George
McCarn and Nelson Grier.
A number of warrants have been
issued for other persons, apd it is
probable that some of them will be
served in time for the hearing this
afternoon.
The cases were set for 10 o'clock
this morning, but the defendants ask-ed
for a continuance until this after-noon
and the request was granted.
After the cases had been continued,
the defendants and their friends held
a conference in the court room to dis-cuss
the situation.
Mr. John N. Wilson, county attor-ney,
is representing the prosecution.
The defendants have retained Maj.
Charles M. Stedman and ex-Judge W.
P. Bynum, Jr., to represent them.
Later—When the cases were call-ed
this afternoon, the defendants filed
affidavits asking for a trial before
another magistrate, whereupon Squire
Collins ordered the cases removed to
the jurisdiction of Squire Wolfe. The
first case taken up was that against
Walter Stout, of Hi?h Point. His
guilt was not denied, but his attor-neys
asked that judgment be suspend-ed
unless it was shown that it is the
intention of the county commissioners
to enforce the law against both town
and country people. Squire Wolfe
fined the defendant $1 and the costs,
this being in addition to the penalty
of $1 provided by the law. The case
against George McCarn was next
taken up.

Negro Assaults Policeman.
Late yesterday afternoon Policeman
Jones had a desperate' encounter with
Will Evans, a burly negro, on South
Elm street. The officer, who was
armed with a warrant for the arrest
of Evans for an affray, met the ue-gro
near Bernau's jewelry store and
informed him that he must either go
to the lock-up or furnish bond. The
negro replied that he would do neith-er
and followed this by drawing a
revolver on the policeman. The of-ficer
caught the pistol with one hand
and brought his "billy" into play at
the same time, striking the obstrep-erous
negro several blows on the
head. Witli the assistance of several
bystanders, the negro was overpow-ered
and carried to the lockup.
Evans was given a hearing before
Judge Eure in the municipal court
this morning and sentenced to the
county roads for four months.
