Two Negro Girls Charged With Fir ing a Barn In Iredell County One alTbrra Makes Oonfemlon and the ..Other In at Large. efeeelal to The Observer. . gtateevllle, April 9 Iredell county has had another barn-uurnlnr. of in cendiary origin and a negro girl who claims that she and her older sister flred the barn has been taken into custody. Just about dark Wednesday even ing members of the family of Mr. N. F. Owlngs. a farmer living near Cool Spring, were attracted by the crackling and roaring of a nre. On hurrying out of the house they found the barn enveloped In flames Mr. Owlngs' granary and loehouse. which were locsted near the barn, where alsn burned with practically all of their contents The contents 6T the three buildings consisted of one home, two eowa. a wagon, bugy. harness, torn, cotton eed. mest and all farming im plementa. Neighbors rushed to the scene of the fire from all directions, but the flames had accomplished th destruction before these arrived. The loss is estimated at about 500 or $100 with no Insurance. Recently Mr. Owlngs had some trouble with two daughters of Al Smith, a colored tenant on his place, and It was suspected at once that the negro girls had fired the barn through tv..h- Yssterdav the younger of th" two girls was taken Into custody and j with little hesitation sne comeiw- that she and her older sister. Mary J, fired the barn, or rather that Mary Lee fired It and forced her to go with her to the barn at the time. A warrant was Issued for Mary Lee, who Is 15 or 16 years old, and tho officers and cltlxens are searching for Ber. 'frtaco ia jut now' upside again on the graft cases. .

The last bold attempt of the prosecution to uncover a "mare' a nest containing grafter colts was bold and spectacular. Tho hired detectives seemed to be serving two masters. They were taking the good money of the district attorney's office and gath ering Information. Then they reached out Itching and willing palms and re ceived good money from the railway company for the same goodaor, rather copies of Jill carefully guarded Information gathered for Mr. Heney. The question arises: If a man will employ himself to sneak and spy for one Interest, isn't It to be expected that any other Interest could purchase the same goods if It had the price 7 The abandoned woman ia out for coin and has no preference as to a patron so long ss money is the consideration. The sneak who ,goee under dif ferent names and spies on his neighbors for a price Is Infin itely worse than an abandoned woman because the woman only prostitutes her body the sneak pros titutes everything in his possession. I never wss much In sympathy - with hired spies. Wise men gravely tell rac that they are a necessity, and they are tolerated and perhaps make good. But when I see one operating, I always think of the old proposition that "It take a thief to catch a thief." But this Calhoun business almost It did ma' gooa to see in tho papers that. a recent decision of mine has beer sustained by tho United 8Utes Circuit Court of Appeals at Richmond, reversing - the United States Dis trict Court.

A couple -of years ago I render ed a similar dsclaien when North Car olina decided that If A sold a man a gallon of whiskey In Baltimore he dldn t sell.

Baltimore, the man who sold to me has gone. He no longer is re sponsible. I must fight it out with the railroad- company and it is a trans portation company and in no way a sales agent. However, I shall not submit my brief here. I have submitted it before, and It only pleases me to read that Judges Boyd and Dayton "quite agree with their learned colleague.

The blushing daughter of a prominent minister "fall In love" with a Japanese house boy as they are call ed and the almond eyed heathen re tun ed the lovo and they fixed It up to ge. married. , The announcement caused the young men who had look ed upon the to-be bride with some regsrd to attsmpt tarring the heathen but that drastic measure was finally abandoned. Tho minister's wife insist ed that if Ood sad planned that her darling was to marry a Jap it was for no' earthly power to interfere. So the twain hiked them to Seattle or some other seaport town and the knot was tied and the happy couple went their way The strong sentiment out here against the Japs, something like the negro question in the South, made this marriage a common scandal.

Temporarily Insane. Charle Pennell. ! of Alexander County, Takes His Life . With a Shotgun. j Correspondence of The Observer j Taylorsvllle, April 8. Charlie Pen-j netl, a young man 20 years old, of Ellendnle township, this county, com- ' mltted suicide yesterday by shooting himself In the head with a shotgun, death being instantaneous. , It Is known the family had been watching him for some time on account of his mental condition and it Is supposed Insanity wan the cause of his act. Pen- nell was married last Sunday to a Miss Ptlne. of this county. He recently went West but did not remain long. Yesterday he took advantage of th , absence of the family from the house to kill himself. Deceased was a son of M. Pennell.

The minister's daughter who broke all rules of decency will of course live to regret her foty. It Is a true bill that the color scheme of a marriage should be all one thing. When you yoke up a nigger and a white woman or a p egress and a white man the romance soon subsides and then comes that after-thought that more closely resembles hades than anything else defined by lexicogra phers. And when a white girl of gentle birth marries a Jap or a Chinaman ah-s has simply exhibited a degree of Idiocy that an expert alienist, for the price, would declare Insanity. Of course the marriage of which speak is only a nine-days scandal. Boon the girl and the Jap will be forgotten. For gotten until the Lady goes into cout to plead that the brute struck her; gouged out an eye; threw a boot Jack Into her face and -bit off her nose. Then the court will wisely grant the decree;" ahe will go home to her mamma and walk through the shad ows down the thorn strewn pike which leadeth to the grave. This sort of business la on the same order of the affinity racket. I see where Artist Earl Is asked to give up his af finity because he has grown weary. Wen Society drsws the line a little closer and prepares a few more wards in its asylums for the harmless luna tics, all these affinities and grinning Idiots who want to marry Japs nnd niggers will be safely housed. And It may be remarked in passing that when California society Is shocked, the disturbance is great.
