(Continued From First Hage.)_
. Tie"said That the- development of tho
.South in-the lust ten years wus bcyona !
imagination, and to prove his assertion,!
quoted tho statistics given above. j
Mayor Richardson wus then Intro?
duced timid great acclaim.
"We h?vc bee:: overwhelmed/' he
Said, "by the hearty welcome we have j
received all along the route. This I
Boosters* trip was Inaugurated and]
planned by Tim Times-Dispatch; n puper
' as clean and great as any in tho coun?
try?one that tius done more for the
progress of Richmond, Virginia and tho
South than any other?und due credit
should be given to The Tlmes-Dlspatch
for the movement."
Ifo showed how the Southerners aro
paying for finished cotton products
bought In Europe for every dollar that
they get for selling the product raw,
und docluretl. now that cotton mills arc
dotting every nlll In the Southern
States, that this condition would not
longer endure
"We come not only to booet Rich?
mond." he said, "but to become ac?
quainted with you. Wo plun a cam?
paign of reciprocity to show you that
you pan buy ns cheaply In Richmond
ns In any other place. If you need
money, come to Richmond snd get It.
Our banks are conservative, and they
c.:n tlnunco any loan you may desire.
We wunt you to believe that Richmond
is the metropolis and gateway of tho
South, through which the tide of pros?
perity must (low."
He was followed by O. Herbert F?n?
ften, acting president of tho Richmond
Chamber of Commerce, who said thut
Hlchmond did not want to take away
Charlotte's tiudo. but to get some of
It which goes to other cities.
I.Ike Coming Home.
Frank S. Woodson, Industrial edi?
tor of The Tlmes-Dlspatch, a North
Carolinian by birth und once a fight?
er among the Duklux Clans, was
called upon to speak. He said that It
was like coming home, for among
other great men. Warren county had
contributed him to the Kcate.
Major J. C. Hcmphlll spoke briefly.
Hntl was followed by W. T. Dabney.
business manager of the Richmond
Chamber of Commerce. The house
came to Its feet, as costless and per?
spiring, he took his stand. He thrill?
ed them from the beginning.
"Let's stop sending our money away
from home," he said, "you can gel
everything you need In Richmond on
account of her advantages. Det us
pull together, for no State has contri?
buted so much to the prosperity of
Virginia as North Carolina. Wo have
n competitor in Baltimore, and It fired
my blood when I read the other day
that Baltimore had the. audacity to
say that we were coming down here
to get her trade, when God knows that
the South stands by the South, and
that If we can't give you a dollar's
worth for your money we don't want'
to try to get your trade. Pull all to?
gether." he said. "Virginia la already
pulllng together, and we have Just
taxed West Virginia for a Just set?
tlement." He grow more enthusiastic
as he proceeded, and Perspiration
streamed from his brows.
Several times he hesitated as It tr
stop, but they bade him go on, and
then when he finished the house canw
again to its feet and the staid bust
ness men of two cities gathered aboul
him and cheered him In song,
j W. S. Dee, president of the South
ern Power Company, spoke briefly. H?
I stated that the Boosters were build
tng better than they know, and said
"I repeat with Mr. Dabney, let us all
! pull together." Then led by E. H'
Clowes, of Richmond, the crowd burst
Into happy song, and at the word from
Mr. Kuester. dispersed to meet again
at a Dutch luncheon given at the
Greater Charlotte Club.
Mr. Dabney received to-night a tele?
gram from Greensboro, signed by T.

meet the Boosters' train at Salisbury.
First Stop of Day.
On schedule time the Richmond I
Boosters' Pullman special arrived In \
Henderson at t> o'clock this morning.:
and found tho town, as tho Boosters
were themselves, fast asleep. Bui;
within an hour Mayor Sutherland ant.
half of the town's population of 10,(?0? I
people were at tho station to greet the j
Rlchmonders. They Hocked around on i
both sides of the train, Hiving und re- |
celvlng the open hand, and thousands:
of tho business souvenirs were flung to
them from both sides of the heavily j
loaded baggage car. Then came a short
automobile tour through the town, the,
procession being headed by tho Boost- !
crs' band, playing spirited airs. Just(
before the train pulled out at 9 o'clock, j
the Boosters, led by W. T. Dabney, bus-|
lncss manager ot the Richmond Cham
ber of Commerce, and Boostcr-ln-Chlef, 1
sang that famous song, "They tell us
Henderson ain't got no style, but she's :
got style all the while, all tho while.")
and then, with a farewell roar of good- '
bys, und a, thousand good wishes tlung;
to them on tho winds, the Boosters!
waved a fond good-by, with tho train
headed for Frankllnton. -
Frankllnton was reachod at 9:25
o'clock, and the people, who had come
from miles around to see the Boosters,
were disappointed that they could no'
stay longer than tho ten minutes allot?
ted on the schedule.
'Welcomed to Frankllnton.
Mayor C. W. Conway and Chief ol
Police A. B. Cooke, with a prosperou.*
looking band of citizens, welcomed tin |
visitors. Mayor Conway said that the
citizens had hoped that the Boosters
might have changed their, schedule no i
as to stay longer in Frankllnton, and
with that^hope 1n mind' an elaborate
reception and an auto trip through the
town had been prepared tor them. D
T. Ward, a leading merchant and claim?
ant of the friendship of Josephus Dan?
iels, editor of the Raleigh News and!
Obeserver, had prepared a written ad-1
dress of welcome. Dacklng tbe time
and opportunity to deliver it vocally,
he handed it to Mayor Richardson and '
presented the Richmond Mayor the key j
of the town. Mayor Richardson will
take the key back with him and try |
it on the portals of his own city. Again ?
"Colonel BUI" Dabney led bis cohorts!
In singing the song they had sung in I
Henderson, changing the name of the
town to fit the occasion.
"Colonel BUI" has a rare good voice,
and knows how to lead as well us he
knows how to boost. The band pluyed
a farewell, and a hundred pretty girls'
serenaded the Boosters until the train
had gone Atom sight.
At Frankllnton a member of the*
Chamber of Commerce of Raleigh
boarded the train and handed to every
one a written welcome to the capital
city of the Old North State. "The Tar?
heel capital city gives the Richmond
business men hearty greetings," it
read, and thn followed the program ot
entertainment which had beau pre?
pared. The welcome was signed by
Henry K. Dltchford, president; Fred A.
Olds, secretary, and by C. T. McClene
ghan, chairman, and Josephus Daniels,
editor of the Raleigh News and Ob?
server, and Charles W, Gold.
Thousands at Hui.lKb
When Raleigh was reacfled at 10:35
o'clock. Mayor James I. Johnson, Jose?
phus Daniels, members of the Chamber
of Commerce and other business organ?
izations, with a thousand people be?
hind them, met the train.
From the station, the Boosters, head?
ed by their band and the regimental
band, of Raleigh, and followed by a
large and Increasing throng of citizens,
marched to the auditorium, a magnifi?
cent now building, now noarlng comple?
tion. There, on a raised platform, with
his own people about him and the Rich?
mond Boosters gathered in front, for
the seats were not yet finished, Mayor
Johnson delivered a stirring address
of welcome. He said that Virginians
and North Carolinians are of the same
blood and race; that the oommercla'
advancement of Richmond meant the
commercial advancement of hor sister
city, Raleigh.
He spoke of tho wonderful develop?
ment of tho South in the past few yeare
and pointed to It as an earnest of
greater development yet to come. "Ra?
leigh welcomes you," ho said, '"as bro?
thers of her own sons, all filled with
the same purpose, all struggling to fos?
ter and develop the great things ol
which our fathers dreamed ?nd
planned."
Response by niehardson.
Cries went up for Mayor Rlohardson,
and though ho Is considerably worried
over th? condition of his son at home,
he responded in his usual graceful style
and eloquence.
He said that the Richmond Boosters
.had come on a campaign of recipro?
city, so that they could engage In de?
veloping the rich resources of th?
Tarheel State. "The line between out
States," ho said, "Is only an imagi?
nary line, and there Is no difference
between the two peoples. \Ka share
alike In the development of resources
of the South, and these oan bo only a
friendly rivalry between us." He
thanked the Raleigh people for their
cordial welcome, and ? as he finished,
there were cries for "Bill'' Dabney.
But he foreborc, as thorn was too lit?
tle time for him to tell the' Rnlolgh
people of the greatness ? of his city,
and of the wealth of their own.
The rest of the time was spent in
a spin In automobiles around the Cltsi
and to tho Agricultural uud Mechan?
ical College of North Carolina, one
of the State's most famous seats of
learning
The streets wore lined with people,
all cheering for the Richmond
Boosters. ai?u calling on them to com<
again. A hundred girls of Meredltl
College, nil dressed In while, eunu
out on tho lawn, cheering and wuv
lug banners und pcnnuntH, with "V\ir
I glnlu" inscribed upon thom, In token
lot the cordiality and sincerity of thclt
weicou'ie. A hurried ruturn was mud*
i tu the train, where Colonel" Dubnoy
became exulted because ho thought
some would bu loft, and pushed them
ull aboard.
W'iuatou Ik Preparing.
At Itulelgh. n telegram fruni .1. 1.
Eudlow, prcslduut of tho Wlnston
Sulem Board of Trado, was received,
saying that the peoplo of that city
were anticipating with much pleasure
and were watting with interest the
I V'lslt, -of the Richmond Boosters 10
I morrow afternoon.
"Wo wave you a hearty bon voy?
age." It concluded, "and trii*l the trip
will prove both pleasant to the
I Boosters and commercially bcnctlclal
t to your enterprising and ultogcthci
I delightful olty."
.S?nford wnx reached u few minutes
before 1 o'clock this afternoon. Mayor
' J. \V. Hiiark, young and pleasant,
with n crowd of leading business men
und a lot of pretty girls, who nro
everywhere In evidence In North Caro?
lina, met the train and welcomed the
Boosters to this onterprlHlng and
nourishing town. The bund played
them a greeting, and again "Bill" Dub
ncy led that Inspiring song ho hus
leurncd especially for tho occasion,
this time making It "They say Sunford
ain't got no style, but she got It all
the while, all the while."
Then came Aberdeen, whore Iho
train arrived two minutes ahead of
schedule time. Mayor J. D. Capps,
with a large crowd of citizens, met
the Boosters, and bade them welcomo
to his town, und his welcomo was
echoed vociferously by tho people^ At
Hamlet, the next stop, the welcome
was even morn cordial. The town
schools wore out for "the day. and a
hundred children, with their books un?
der their arms and led by Mayor Aus?
tin, wore waiting at tho station when
tho Boosters' train pulled in.
Woodnnn Is Kloquent.
Prank S. Woodsou. more noted as
a writer on agriculture and other
mild subjects than an an orator. Im?
mediately jumped on a haggp.ge truck,
and said that because a party of Rlch
inondcrs were In Richmond county. N.
C. there ought to bo some speech
making. In eloquent and thrilling
tones he Introduced Mayor Austin,
who spoke from the same, truck. Ho
bade the Rlchmondors to feel at jjome,
even If the time were short, and said
that ho wished they could stay longer.
Mayor Richardson responded In hb
half of the visitors, and then tho
Boosters Bang their little song again,
and gave three cheers for Hamlet.
Not to be outdone. Mayor Austin
rained his hat and three times tho
Hamlctltes rang out In a roar of
cheering. Then enme the little town
of Rocklngham. only ten minutes run !
distant, nnd here again a welcome I
was waiting the Rlchinonders.
Mayor W. N. Everett was at the sta- I
tlon. and over a bale of cotton the two!
Mayors met and clasped hands. There
was hardly time for more thnn a word I
and a handshake and a song and the
Boosters' train pulled out for the next
point to tarry.
In Monroe, the last stopping place I
before reaching Charlotte, the people .
came In automobiles, in carriages and
afoot, hundreds of them, all with u
word of kindly welcome and all ready ;
to listen to the gospel of prosperity !
which the Boosters are preaching as
they travel through North Carolina.
Mayor J. J. Crow, following the ex- i
ample of his brother Mayors Inslftter
cities, was ready at the station, and !
pressed forward to meet Mayor "Davy" j
Richardson, who seems to be almost
as well known In North Carolina as
In his native State.
Trip In HlKhly Successful.
Here thousands of circulars and
other advertising matter were dis?
tributed among the citizens, of the
town, and those who had come In from
tho country. Word had gone forth
even unto the farthest recesses of the
rural neighborhoods, ?.nd many a man
walked a man's one-day Journey Just
to see and hear the "Boosters." The
trip up to this point could not have
been more successful.
Every man on board, and all of
them are business men who look for
and expect results, Is pleased with
the results of the first day's tour, for
It Is estimated that 10.000 people, who
could not have been reached In other
manner, have heard of the resourcea
of Richmond and now know that they
do not have to go beyond the Mason
and Dlxon line to purchase the things
they need and the luxuries they de?
sire.
As In the other towns which the
special train has passed through, the
Boosters' band went out upon the sta?
tion platform nnd delighted the ears
of hundreds with their Inspiring
music. The band of tho Phillips Dra- '
matlc Company, which appears In !
Monroe to-night, accompanied the j
Boosters from Rocklngham to Monroe. I
und was so thoroughly Imbued with
the spirit of the occasion, that It, too,
helped the Boosters' cause along.
AMUSEMENTS
Bijou?'The Winning Widow."
"The Jolly Bachelors" Doleful.
"The Jolly Bachelors" were at the
Academy of Music last night- For?
tunately, they, are scheduled for only
one performance. Aside from the fact
that there were no Jolly hacheors; that
the musical numbers missed being
tuneful; that the chorus was out of
tempo and showed woeful lack ot
proper training; that the production
was old and shopworn, and that the
comedians wero not funny, the per?
formance waB a success. Charity alone
prevents mention of names. L. J.
Burlesque at Bijou.
Rlohmond needs a burlesque house.
Any one witnessing the performance
at the Bijou last night, when the "Wln
[ nlng Widow" stampeded her way
I through two acts of slapstick comedy,
I sometimes bordering on the bizarre,
I could have no doubt as to the need of
i such an amusement place. "The Win?

than the average production. Yet s

comedy and laughed Itself hoarse at |

Without attempting to detract from

the knowing will realize at once that

"Widow," there Is little reason to cavil
at anything which may hereafter be

something of a voice. Joe Fields, a

DEATHS
bYDNOR.?Died, at his home, near
Corder, Lafayette county, Missouri,'
on September 30. 1911, GEORGE B.,
SYDNOR. in the seventieth yeur of
his ago. For many months previous
to his death his sufferings were In-'
tense, but he bore his sufferings with
patience and courage, and with
thougntful consideration of those'
who ministered to him. He was ai
son of the late Wm. B. Sydnor, of:
Hanover county, Va., and lived In i
that county the greater part of his i
early life. During the four years I
of the Civil War he was a member I
of Company G (Hanover Troop),
Fourth Virginia Cavalry, and did his'
duty faithfully, both In camp and on j
tho batllellebi. lie was severely
wounded at the buttle of Kelleys'
Ford, March. t.vo wounds from >
sabres and one from pistol.
In 1870 he located in Lafayette I
county. Mo., and (with the exception!
of a few years) continued to make
that county his home. While scrupu?
lously careful of his own conduct,
his heart wag ever overflowing with
the milk of human kindness, and
warm was that "love which thlnketh
no evil"; and so he was naturally
disposed to look upon the delinquen?
cies of others as fallings rather
than faults. And yet In a proper
case no One was more prompt and
decided than ho to declare his po?
sition, and to stand by his convic?
tions. These characteristics, added
to his unusual social gifts, made him
universally popular.
He Is survived by his wife, who I
was Miss Addle L. Burton, of La?
fayette county, Mo., and by three
sons?Wm. B. Sydnor, of Kansas
City, Mo.; Waltor G. Synor, of Cor-,
der, Mo., and Charles C. Sydnor, of

Mrs. Mary "w*. Tlmberluko, Mrs. Julia
