Kinston College will open its 17th session Monday, September 27. All indications point to a large opening. A strong faculty has been employed and it is hoped that this will be the most prosperous session in the history of the growing institution. Improvements are under way and ample provision has been made for the expected arge attendance. Kinston College takes high rank among the institutions of learning for the negro youth.

Good Fishing. Charles R. Harper, of Castoria, claiming the Greene County fishing championship, brought the proof with him when he put in his bid. Angling as he traveled down Moccasin River from Old Creek to Hookerton, Harper reeled in 23 big chub, some of them weighing four to five pounds. Snow Hill championship claimants tipped their hats to Mr.

Harper. Tobacco Situation Little Changed. Tobacconists claim to see a tendency on part of buyers on this market to pay prices a shade better than have obtained since the opening for weed of best quality, and an inclination to decrease slightly the prices for poorer grades. Unusual precautions are being taken throughout Lenoir and neighboring counties to protect the housed crop from storage or weather damage. This is taken to indicate that farmers are determined to hold the crop "to the last ditch." Dismissed Woman's Case.

Judge Morrill in the Greene County Court at Snow Hill took the "human course" when confronted with an alleged moral delinquent in the person of a young with two children recently. The woman had been twice married and divorced. Judge Morrill dismissed the defendant to go to her father and brothers in a Virginia town. Spectators, prompted by his action, raised a purse for the woman more than sufficient to take her to her destination. Not in Keeping With General Trend.

Rent increases here during the last few days have more than offset the advantages gained by tenants from the drops in commodities in some lines. A number of tenants say rents have been raised from 50 to 60 per cent. at one time, on houses built before the war in nearly cases. The claim is made that in some cases local families are paying as much as $50 a month for houses some distance from the business district which were built years ago at costs ranging from 000 to $2,000. Not all landlords here have imposed excessive rents, however.

In numerous cases rents have increased only 20 or 25 per cent. since 1916 or 1917. Universalist Convention. The Universalist State convention will be opened at the Church of the Eternal Hope here Thursday evening at 7:30 o'clock, with greetings from the local parish, local churches, publie schools and municipality, an address by Rev. Charles A.

Alden, of Columbus, on "The Basis and Process of Human Progress," and a publie reception. Friday's program calls for a business session at 10 o'clock, with reports by the trustees, secretary, treasurer and fellowship committee; the occasional sermon by Rev. R. S. Kellerman, of Durham, at 11 o'clock; a session under the auspices of the Woman's National Missionary Association: at 2, with addresses by Mrs.

Emma L. Bush, the national treasurer, of Chelsea, and others, and a second address by Rev. Mr. Alden on "The Golden Rule in Industry" at 8 o'clock. PLAYER TRIED TO MAKE BASES WRONG WAY BUT HE WASN'T OUT.

Washington, N. Sept. B. Foster, national authority on baseball, has settled a dispute growing lout of a freak play by First Baseman local team, Eastern League grounds here a few ago. With a man on second Foiles bunted the ball.

The first baseman fielded it and started to "cut in" on Foiles. The batter inched back toward the home plate, crossed the plate and continued to third base. Finally the first baseman threw to third, in the attempt to catch the runner heading for that base. The umpire said Foiles was out. Foster writes that "the batter was safe.

He had not acquired legal title to first base and was still striving for it. He did not interfere with any one. He did not run outside the three-foot line. He could not touch the bases in reverse, order as he had not touched first. There always was an opportunity to put him out at first base which seems not to have been taken advantage of." Industrial School In Louisiana Gets Backing From the Government.

Washington, Sept. The new Delgado Trade School at New Orleans will be open by January 1. The building is nearly completed now. Some years ago Isaac Delgado, a wealthy citizen of New Orleans, died leaving in his will the sum of $800,000 for the establishment of a trade school for boys and men. The city put the money at interest and the sum has now grown to be a million and a quarter dollars.

By the terms of the will this money must all go into buildings and equipment. However, the State of Louisiana is entitled to receive a considerable sum for trade education from the Federal appropriations under the vocational education act. This amount the State supplements by $50,000 a year provided for by the State legislature for the maintenance of the trade school. This rives the school a large annual maintenance fund.
