There appearsto be. something In the air that encourages evil doing, that make rol ks a werve from the perpend icu lar, that sends them to the bottle and then to the cell, i Almost all manner of men fell by tha wayside last night, and hat cells were not occupied by differ en t gradations of negroes, were taken tip by whites, most of whom had lm fclbed too freely of alcohol! beverages and been unable to stand the test of Its power. " - "gey, there, muttered a fellow to a reporter, wno maae nu way aowu the centre of the corridor, looking on his right hand and dn his left at the unfortunate beings ; whose craving are beyond human endurance. Am I In Salisbury?" inquired tne boy. lor no was no more than a boy, who sat upon fitls cot and looked through the harsh Iron bars with eyea half-closed in the eWn of intoxication. . Ton know where So-and-So la?" tie continued.-"I left him In Hoover's liar at Salisbury." The newspaper tnaa admitted that he ne,ver heard of til friend. ' ..' . "Where am J at, anyhow?' he look ed about htm In; an effort to locate ; fclmself. . Too are In Jail In Charlotte," said the searcher for news. No I alnt, am in Salisbury. Itiwas useless to try to tell hi m better. . It was on his mind that he had just come from a Salisbury saloon and bad met mishap on the streets of that city. He apparently had never fceard of Charlotte, with its municipal aversion to corn liquor Scars ; were scattered at intervale on his face and tie seemed to have been used badly hy aomeone. He was In a very un comfortable tit. Tha reporter left him sitting on his couch, 'looking with the glare of a ' maniao through the bars of his cell, and stopped before a cell wherein was one of the Boulware negroes, who are ! given to strong drink. He. as is the custom of those of his blood, had tar ried too long over the cup. He reel ed all over hi bed and Just about the time the newspaper man peepej In, he averred around and his earthly tab ernacle hit the floor. He doubled himself up, tried to straighten out, but tie had lost the faculty pf adjustment, and for a time lay supine and im movable on the bar J floor, which he hd struck with all the force he had gathered, falling a distance of three feet. He was too drunk to talk. A. white man was in the adjacent cell," suffering from the same , disease. He was able to stand at the door and ' beg like a child end with the pathos of a helpless babe for someone to come to his aid. He pleaded for a messenger boy to go to hla relatives and Inform them of his plight He tagged for this, he begged for that Everything that came to his Hps was In the nature of a petition. He knew he was In trouble, having survived that period of Intoxication where a hard bed is Just the same as a couch of cotton, draped In oriental beauty ana wrapped about with oriental lux wry. He wanted something to eat something to drink; he wanted a mes senger boy; lie wanted a servant to frve him; he wanted a lawyer to de fend him. ' "What am I In here for, anyway?" he' asked In bewilderment It was all so strange to him that his human kind had suffered him this misfortune. He, unlike the boy who sat dreamily en Ills bed, knew where he was, but " he couldn't exactly figure out the wherefore of the situation. A few minutes elapsed and the re porter was talking to the cops in the other room. . ' " "Ca-bang." went the door of a cell, ' and again and again the same sound. : It became furiously noisy within. . "Who is that?" Inquired one of the bunch in the dressing room of the po licemen. V "That's that Boulware negro." ex plained Night Turnkey Earnhardt. "He has awakened from his sleep and is tnad now. It's like 'em. I know .em all. Boulware was beating might ily against the door of his cell as If ,a concentration of his muscular pow er could regain liberty for his Impris oned soul ,., But It couldn't and lie was still too drunk to know it. or had , reached that mean state of his Intoxi " ration where he was seeking revenge. , Oaths unprintable and unspeakable escaped his lips and these were mix ed with similar language from nearby ' cells; all mingling In one great wave of anathema against heaven, earth and air, and H that In them Is.

A Hodge-Podge of Matter. Visitors In the city yesterday from Hamlet and beyond were telling of tht hodge-poJge of stuff heaped high at Ruaseilvllle, on the site of the Sea board freight wreck, three miles west of Wadesboro, Friday night. There was one car of oranges, one car of baby dolls and another of au tomobiles, all; Jumbled together, to say nothing of the contents of the 18 others. , It Is safe to assume that there will be no lack of Christmas presents this year for all ths little folks, especially those of a dusky complexion, In that section of Anson county.
