been secured as members of the
Democratic Club, organized here last
week. The club is gotten up for
united work and also for the effect

NEXT ATTRACTION AT AUDI
TORIUM The Boston Sextette Club, one of
the strongest attractions yet, will
appear at the School Auditorium
the night of November 1st as one
of the big offerings of the Radcliffe
entertainment Bureau. This club
is one of the most noted organiza
tions of its kind in the country and
if you fail to see it you will miss
the treat of a life time. Tickets on
sale at Mann Drug Co., or at Audi
torium night of show.
Quiet times, these, to be so near
an election. Wonder if "General
Apathy" has got hold of the people.

too it demonstrates the fact that the

offer, and judging from the past, we
feel sure that the friends of each
contestant will see that their favor
ite goes bounding rapidly to the
front.
Standing of Contestants in The Review
Popularity Contest on October
21st at 5:00 P. M.
We call the attention of the pub
lic to the close rivalry already exist
ing in this race for popularity.
While Miss Rochelle hold's first
place, Miss Mary Denson is making
a close chase and holds second
place; she is the kind of worker that
"saws wood and says nothing."
She "g?ts there jusl the same."
Miss Jaunita Hammer has made
a good record and holds third posi
tion. We are expecting to see her
change her location soon.
We beg to call your notice to the
record made by Miss Hattie Gray in
less than one week's time. At the
rate she has started in by the close
of another week she will hold first
place.
The friends of these voung ladies
are coming to their rescue and are
sending in votes directly to the of
fice, to be entered to the credit of
their favorite.

visitor this week. He is connected
with the Piedmont Traction Co. in
the proposed trolley line from
Greenville to High Point. Mr. Bir

CRIPPHN SENTENCED TO DIE
The sensational case of Dr. Haw

of his wife, Belle Elmoie, which
has been cf interest to the world
more or less, came to an end in the
London, England, court last Satur
day. Alter a trial extending over
five days, and thirty minutes delib
eration, by the jury, he was found
guilty of the murder of wife and he
was sentenced to be hung on Nov.
15th. There being such strong
prejudice in England on convicting
a man on purely cisaimstantial
evidence, Crippen 's sentence may
be changed to life imprisonment.

At Least That is the Verdict
of the Unbiased WhoHeard
Kis Speech Last Night
Seemed Cowed Audience
Badly Disappointed.
The much-talked off Marion. But
ler has come and gone and that he
didn't make good in his speech
last night at the Pickett ware
house is the concensus of
opinion. The mighty "Mary Ann"
vvaS heralded far and wide and two
thirds of the audience went out
through curiosity and upon the rep
utation he was supposed to have as
a speaker. The audience was made
up of at least two-thirds democrats.
This could be seen by looking over
the crovwd, and the applause at no
one time came from more than one
fourth of the house.
Mr. (urney Frazier, republican
candidate for the senate, opened the
speech-making. While he was talk
ing "Mary Ann" sat serenely in
one end of the building, surrounded
by Mr. J. Elwood Cox, former as
pirant for gubernatorial honors; W.
P. Ragan, postmaster of High Point;
A. A. Holton, assistant postmaster;
and other republi a is. Mr. Frazier's
speech over, Mr. butler was escort
ed to the platform and introduced
by Mr. Cox as "Ex-Senator Marion
Butler." The above named gentle
men, sat on the platform with the
speaker with the exception of Assis
tant Postmaster A. A. Holton.
Butler began his talk by saying
this was a peculiar campaign; claim
that the democrats were trying to
appeal to the passion instead of to
reasoning. He attempted to define
the good and the bad and harped
consiferably on "truth." He seem
ed tihmk that "headquarters at
Raleilh" had raised the cry, "Mary
Aim .Bonds, Boodlers and NegVo,"
from wie mountains to the seashore
SpealPBo; of the democratic platform
he said it contained nothing (just
exactly what the people thought of
his speech), no one understood it
and he praised the republican plat
form as the greatest thing ever writ
ten; that his party was a party of
construction, a party of hope; while
the democratic party was paity of
destruction and despair. He told of
had for Kitchin but he found that
the governor did not have any
courage, that he was in the memor
able mid-night caucus hollering with
all his might against "Butler and
negro," etc., etc. There was sim
ply nothing to his speech and the
people wondered what had come
over him or whether he had been
overrated by some people. Anyhow
Butler's s.jeech fell flat here, de
cidedly so, even several republicans
admitting it to the writer.
In the audience were a number of
colored people and a tew "rooters"
who tried to make some noise, But
withal it was a very tame affair and
it is believed lost the party votes.
Butler seemsto know how the peo
ple feel about him, at itast how thou
sands of good North Carolinians re
gard nun. tie nas a whipped ex
pression and as one looks and re
flects thfct a son of the Tar Heel
state would turn traitor to the state
that gave him birth, he feels still
colder towards him, even though he
may be a brainy, shrewd man, of
the political wire-pulling, scheming
variety. No doubt as a lobbyist he
is a success; no doubt it pays him
to be such a politician. Anyway
Butler failed to make good you
only have to ask the ludience last
night to find out eight out of every
ten will agree in this assertion.
tr is a well established fact that
Miss Venetia Smith always does
things well and the contestant that
is plucky enough to land the largest
number of votes will be well re
ward. It's a $5.00 hat or that
amount credit on any hat in the
house.
