M. Chrlstenbury relative to the lar. ceny of cotton from the local plat form, sometimes from cars standing r nearabouts and sometimes from Pi rate warehouses around the city. The ? exact number of bales that have been stolen within the limit of this time will probably never be known, but the ; officers have received reports of the ; loss ef at least 11 bales. The ar rest of the three negroes yesterday makes seven .men apprehended on oharces of stealing cotton, two ef whom were acquitted this week la the Superior Court and two, as stat ed before, convicted anj sentenced. That there are others connected with -this offense the policemen have lit ' tie doubt, but they, are congratulate ' In themselves upon the arrest of these seven who show signs of uneom mon shrewdness !n the methods pur sued for getting away with the cot . ton. " ' CHIEF CHIUSTENBURY'3 THEORT The , theory advanced by Chief Chrtfitenburv as to the methods used by these negroes sounds plausible and no other comes as near covering the probable facts In the case. . It Is his opinion that there Is an understand lnr between a ring cdmposej of town and country negroes, and while the former plan ana lay tneir scnemew, . the, latter are active-in the execution thereof. It Is altogether likely, to the mind of the chief, that a cer '., tain band of town negross engaged round, or connected . In some way, with the local, cotton platform throw out a bale or 'two at night, and the next mornlns: a country wagon Is ". driven up, the. cotton is loaded and driven around on the- wharf where It Is offered for sale. . In some in' stances, drays have been used to car ry the cotton off the platform in or der to make less possible any sus picion of wrong-doing. It was easy to snatch identifying tags and an marks of former sale from the bales Stolen. - " , THE ARRESTS YESTERDAY. , ; Several weeks a to. the local of fleers, after vigorous .searches and investigations, believed that they had linked together sufficient evidence to arrest John Fteeland, win ivey ana Rich Harding. ... The two last named werj. apprehended and locked up, ' but John - Freetand could not be found. , He la believed to have secur ed an Intimation of the arrest of his partners and escaped, knowing; that he was the .chief of the trio and that little coTjIJ be done with the others without him. This proved to be precisely the case. ivey end Hardin were turned loose after the officers discovered that Freeland was essential to welding the chain of evi dence and since that time energies have been directed . to his capture. When he was found yesterday morn- in, the officers brought him to the station and went Immediately to. get Ivey And Harding, who were feeling- secure since tne aDsence or xneir part ner. . . ... I.V TRIAti OP TWO OTHERS.' . In Superior -Court yesterday,' con aiderable time was consumed In the trial of Will CUthberston and Willie Rhyne. charged with 'this same of' fense. They were jointly ' Indicted - for. stealing one bale of cotton from the local platform, the result being - that CUthbertson proved his Inno cence and Rhyne, who is a mexflboy, was found guilty and sentenced to serve 12 months on the roas. The . boy secured cuthbertson to haul a bale of cotton from the Seaboard platform to College street, where It Was purchased by Mr. W. A. Watson through Mr. Walter Marks, and from the evidence introduced It was evident ' to the jury that Cuthberston Was guilty "of no connection with the of- rense, and that Rhyne, as small he is, was responsible for the whoie scheme. The money was paid to him by Mr. ' Watson, who afterward suspicloned crookedness, and had htm - arrested while the ' bale was being delivered beeK to the platform.- Rhyne was the main witness against Cuthbert son and vice versa, but the little ne . gro failed to show that the latter had any criminal connection with the larceny and he was dismissed. AXOTHER GETS IS MONTHS. Tom Shanker, colored, who was 1 found guilty of stealing- cotton from Henry Neely, colored, some weeks ago, was sentenced by JuJge Webb yesterday to serve It montns on the road.

The salt air of the sea permeates the entire piece and the homely, God-fearing honesty that oomes natural td those who live down close to the sea Is brought out with wonderful. effect. The people of the story are about evenly divided between fisher folk and city-bred summer vis ltors, but It Is the charm of the salt water and the simple, direct characters of Flotsam (Miss Thurston) her dad dy" old Cap'n Axnos Barton, his dory mate, Ben Ceoke, and Joey, the fisher boy that gets close to the heart, and take the story far and away beyond the ordinary.. The last ecene of the third act - where f Flotsam' prays sen tence by sentence, for forgiveness for her lather, who is under the Impres sion that he baa committed a murder, with the broken-down Id salt fol lowing her word for word, is one of the strongest" moat pathetic.' most heart-gripping stage pictures that has ever been put Into any play.
