High Point and Thoniasvflle, now hap
pily a thing of the vacinated dud fu

inston from the chair town and un
able to buy a ticket, he passed a quar
ter to the conductor and said gruffly,
"Lexington." The conductor said,
"Twenty-five cents extra," the rule on
cash fares. His honor, put . on his
fiercest expression and " said he , be
jumped up and jim jiggered and ding
donged if he paid it. Quick as n' flash

man to stop. "Hold ;on!','Vh04itcd-the
mayor, as the train - began' slowing
down, "I'll pay!" and pay he did. -

and a! girl possibly 18, put up as man
and" wife at a Mr. Brown's," near Mon
trose. Yesterday ' Policeman Sussel
brought the man to 'town-under -arrest-on
a ' charge "of forgery ' uttered
in 'Burgaw;' The girl came with him
and stopped over at the Commercial
hotel. She eaid that she did not hav.c
a penny, but the hotel management
Was kind enough to let her stay until
the matter was cleared up. The man
gave the name of J. B. Holland," Nor
folk, Va. ; . ; : ; v ; -.'"' . .. ,
' Borne time in the evening the girl's
father, Mr. Atkinson, - of Burgaw,
came here in search of his daughter,
Annie, who was thought to have been
thtrman's wife' About five weeks ago
Holland , and Miss Atkinson 1 disap
peared -and Mr. Atkinson advertised
in a South Carolina paper for the
arrest of Holland, ' thin-king that his
daughter had been abducted. It is
believed by some in Burgaw that they
were intending to get married, but
Mr. Atkinson looked over the" register
of ; deeds' book and found that no license-,
had been .issued to them Any
way the two disappeared and the
father' knew -nothing" of his s daugh
ter's whereabouts until hewas told
by-the; police of Burgaw that Police
man Russell had the man that Vas
wanted. . 7 "
' Holland made - the " statement that
they were .not married, but the gill
said they t were. The girl refused,, to
see her father when he asked to see
hr Tuesday morning. Somehow she
managed to get away from the hotel
and hide and had not been located
at noon.
It had been reported that "Some
"doped" candy was found by a physi
cian in an old valise of Holland's,
where he had been boarding, and that
he and the girl had been eating can
dy and fruit -together,- and 'that she
appeared sleepy and in low spirits
just before her disappearance.
The father of the girl said he cared
for his child and would take her back
into his home.
Mr. Atkinson left on the morning
train for Burgaw. Holland is in the
lock-up here awaiting developments.

Counterfeit.
Wbiteville News Reporter.)
Warnings "have been sent to the of
ficials of the banks here, as well as
to banking Institutions throughout the
country, putting them on guard against
a counterfeit one-dollar bill, so skill-
ullymade that it can hardlyvbe de
tected by the most experienced eye
at a casual glance. The counterfeit
s said to be an unusually dangerous
onej . The series is that of 1S99, and
the check' letter, it is stated, is "B."
The front' plate number is given at
4,810.
The description of the spurious bul
sent. to the bank cashiers states that
One: of the most conspicuous faults
about th& bad' bill is the trait that
the - Lincoln and Grant portraits are
printed in a . much ' darker" ink than
hey are on the genuine notes, borne
of the letters on it, as, for instance,
the' words "United States" near the
Lincoln - . portrait. are imperfectly
ormed. Local bank cashiers are keep
ng their "eyes peeled" for the imita
tion bills. .
