""he six-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. George McClintock, who reside on Battle Ground avenue, just out-side the city limits, died qf lockjaw Saturday afternoon, the fatal dis-ease having resulted from a wound in the boy's foot caused by a fish-bone. While playing in the road in front of his parents' residence Fri-day the HUle fellow stepped on a fishbone, a sharp portion of which entered his foot. Going home, the regular home remedies for such a wound were applied and the little fellow did not seem to be seriously ha**, ge'*lng about later in the af-ternoon and going to bed that night without complaining. The. parents first became alarmed Saturday when the foot was found to be badly inflamed. A physician was called and he in turn called a brother of the profession, both real-izing from the first that their fight would be a desperate one. An inci-sion was made in the foot and a piece of 'ho bone which had broken off in the flesh removed, but de-spite every effort known to science the lad grew rapidly worse. Lockjaw had developed and all possible to relieve the intense pain was done until death occurred late Saturday afternoon. The funeral was conducted from the home Sunday afternoon by Rev. H. M. Blair and interment made "n Greene Hill cemotery. The Big Fair is On. The Central Carolina fair opened Tuesday under most favorable cir-cumstances, and 00 far everything has conspired to make It perhaps the best and most enjoyable fair ever hold here. The weather is ideal and has resulted in augmenting the crowds considerably. As is usually the caoe, the attendance the first day was not large, but yesterday several thousand people passed through the gates and today a mul-titude will fill the grounds. The exhibits in the various de-partments are fully up to expecta-tions and have been the subject of much favorable comment The free attractions provided for the en*er" tainment of visitors are pronounced the best e.vgr seen at a fair here. was unveiled and formally presented to the college by State Superintend-ent of Public Instruction Joyner.

Grum-blers who were recalcitrant at first hav ent<—ed the Wilson camp. On the other hand, the Republicans are not working as harmoniously as they could. Especially is this true in Missouri. SUBSCRIBE TO THE PATRIOT. "Confederate Hero Honored. Nashville, Tenn., Oct. 5.—Observ-ance of Sam Davis Memorial day, October 6. the birthday of the youth-ful Confederate hanged at Puiaski, Tenn., November 27, 1863, after his refusal to betray the source of In-formation found in his hands, began in Tennessee today, the most notable accounts being held at the Sam Davis statue on Capitol hill here by local chapters of the Daughters of the Confederacy. An investing fig-ure was John Miller, of Davis' regi-ment, who officiated rn the presenta-tion of 40 crosses of honor to vete-rans. R.

Indianapolis, Ind., OcL 7.—The McNamaras and Ortie McManigal once discussed a proposal to blow up the locks of the Panama canal. Dis-trict Attorney Charles W. Miller told the jury at the trial of the accused "dynamiters conspirators" today. The incident occurred, according to Mr. Miller, Just before the arrest of the Los Angeles dynamiters, when they were becoming dpsperate in their efforts to secure explosives. "John J. called James B. Mc- Namara, his brother, and McManigal to the headquarters of the Interna-tional Association of Bridge and Structural iron Workers,'' said Mr. Miller. "John J. said to McManigal, ■We can't get any more dynamite around here without stealing it. Now you go to Panama and aee what you :an do down there. The McClintic- Marshall Construction Company has 1 lot of dynamite stored down there i'ou could easily get hold of it and low up the >ocks. That would make 'em sit up and take notice and take ■neir minds off the Los Angeles af- 'air.' McManigal refused to go at that time. Soon after they all were irrested." Col. P&arson Deposed as Secretary. Ei^ht members of . the executive committee of the Progressive party la North Carolina held a meeting | here Saturday afternoon and passed resolutions against anything like fusion with the Republicans and de-posing Col. W. S. Pearson as secre-tary of the committee. Mr. R. H. Beisecker was elected secretary, and it was decided to • move state headquarters to Lexington, where both the secretary and the chairman, Mr. Z. V. Walser, reside. The de-posing of Col. Pearson is reported to be due to friction between him and the state chairman. Cd. Pearson has ignored the ac-tion of the committee and is con-tinuing to direct a Roosevelt cam-paign from headquarters In the Ben-iiow building. In Case of FIRE Death of Good Stokesdale Citizen. Mr. H. L. Gant, who had been in poor health for a long while, died Monday at his home at Stokesdale.
