Capturd after a vigilance of two days, Baxter Stewart, colored, other wise known a Will Roaeboro, was brought to tbe city from PlnevjUe last night at 11:10 o'clock in an auto mobile. Forming hia eecort of hon or were Policemen Malcolm and House and Mr. V. D. Slkee. of Mon roe, whose horse and buggy the ne gro la aeeneed of curlng by a rath er elever ruee. The horse wae left at Pineville to recuperate, having been hard ridden and whipped. Friday afternoon come ona called no the livery stables of V. V. Sikes Company, stating that he waa Captain Reece, of the railroad working gang there and asking for a horse and buggy. He said he would send a col ored boy in a short while, for the rig; Assent was cordially given, as the gentleman named was a good patron Of the establishment. Stewart, it is charged, was the one who did the telephoning and also the one who came end drove away the, horee. Nothing was thought about the mat ter until about dusk a colored em ploye of the place came ln from pineville and said he passed a negro driving the team rapidly toward Charlotte. He reprimanded him for ill treatment. "Huh," said the negro. "Dis ain' Mr. Sykes hos. I'm a collectln' agent fum AVadesburruh. Look-a-hers at ma book." And he exhibited an account book belonging to Mr. Reece. With that he continued to ride. Later an outfit believed to be the one was sighted near this city and the police had been on the alert Yes terday Mr. Sikea came to Charlotte, going out into the Hebron vicinity yesterday afternoon on a scouting ex cursion. He had hardly returned when a telephone message was re ceived from Pineville at police head quarters, stating that the man was In custody and the party set out by automobile. The negro is charged also with stealing a suit of clothes from one of the men of the Reece camp. He will also be indicted for crtlelty to animals As to the rest, here is the nut the court will have to crack: Is he guilty of straight-out larceny of a horse, which means a term of five years on the roads; or obtaining property un der false pretense, or of larceny after trust? Certainly the goods were tak en in broad daylight, without con cealment and with everybody willing. At any rate, howe'er It be, If the facts are proven on the present prisoner he Is certain to get "his." "A fellah come drlvin'- along and tol' me I cud have de hoss en buggy." says Baxter. "He said he wuz through wid it. And I tuk it." A Jury may or may not attach credence to this deliverance. AX OLD-TIME REVIVAL. EvangellHt J. B. Phillips Leads Three Powerful Meetings In One Iy at Xinth Avenue Baptist Churrh Services to Continue Through Wed nesday. The interest in th strong revival at Ninth Avenue Baptist church is ex tending over Charlotte. This is, per haps, the greatest revival in the his tory of the church. On Sunday morning Evangelist Phillips spoke on lost power and how to regain it. His sermon was not from a text, but from the Bible. At the morning service it was an nounced that the sermon in the af ternoon would be primarily for men. An excellent audience, mostly of men. greeted the preacher. A crowd of men Is seldom so deeply moved. But few present failed to respond when the minister asked if they wanted to have more power through getting in to a closer and more personal rela tion to Christ. A sermon of special interest to women was announced for the eyet, Ing service. When the hour arrived" the church was overflowing Into the Sunday school room. The audience was by far the largest of the meeting thus far. Mr. Phillips preached a strong sermon on the power and In fluence of the mother The door of the church was opened and nineteen members were received during ,the day. Some of them came by letter, others under the watchful caref'of the church, and others for baptUm. The meeting will be continued through Wednesday. Everybody Is Invited both to the afternoon and evening services. The afternoon meetings are at S:30 and the even ing hour is 7:45. Greensboro Musician Agaiu in a Peck of Trouble.

Republican Stand Creates Conversa tion. As was expected, the plank in the Republican platferm feverinsj the sale of soft drinks, cigars and Ice cream on Sunday is attracting some little attention. The issue was fought out 1n the present board of aldermen two years ago and lost by but one vote. some who favored It voting against It on various grounds of policy. Although the Idea finds ravor with a very large number, there Is no likelihood that It will win the Republicans any appreciable number of votes, since the Democrats are not on record against it and th dividing lines on the question are in no sense partisan. Those who favor it point to other cities In the State where the privilege Is allowed and nobody thinks It stranger than riding on street cars or having his shoes shined. Sues 4Cs For Damages.
