A Bis Crowd and an interesting Docket.' HOUSE TRADERS HAPPY. Judge Starbuck Presides, and the Pleasant Impression Made Up on the People of Orango County During Former Visits Suffers In no Way by His Rulings. Court week, with its attendant crowd of defendants, witnesses, horse jockeys and other outsiders, which looms .up three times year as an oasis in the lives of Hillsboro people, has come in all its glory. A typical court it is, too, with witnesses in the court house swearing the whole trutl and horse traders in the back lot swearing anything to make i trade. The regiment of attendants, who make it a point to come to Hillsboro during court week, are here, standing around on the street corners swapping neighbor hood news and politics, and ex pressing their views on the curren cy question. Judge Starbuck seems to be giving pretty general eatisfnetiou so far as our information goes, and is causing law breakers to get a hustle on themselves. The lawyers from adjoining towns are here, cussing and dis cussing the merits and demerits of their respective cases and gy rating in a most wonderful man ner as they warm up to their sub ject. The grand jury is getting in its work and ere the week closes will have made it pretty hard, for some of the wily violators of the law. It is to be hoped that they will realize the condition the jail is in aud will recommend improve ments so forcibly as to cause that structure to be remodeled at once and made more convenient and healthy. ; Thursday morning's rain seem ed to throw a damper over the spirit of the crowd (not spirits frumenti) and they seemed to low interest in passing events, while their numbers kept on decreasing until finally caucussing on the rorners was abandoned and the streets became deserted except for some solitary straggler who plod ded along through the driving rain. The crowd seemed to be more orderly than usual, and very lit tldrunkcncss was seeu, though the spirits were flowing freely and friends wenTnot lacking. Among the cases tried, some of which were of mora than usual interest, we note the following: State vs. Calvin Lloyd and Itox- aua Lloyd, f. and a., both guilty. Calvin had to whack up a $10.00 fine and the costs, and Roxana forked over her little fine of $15.00. Rufus Smith plead guilty of as sault, and the Court assaulted his socket book to the tune of $73.00 and costs. In the case of State vs. Eugene Hughes, the graud jury returned not a true bill, which is very grat ifying to the many friends of Mr. Hughes. .

DARES TELL THE TRUTH. . Rev. D. H. Tuttle Not Afraid to Prtacn the Qospet. , . . The following extract from the powerful and really great sermon preached by Rov. IX H. Tuttle in Raleigh several Sundays ago, should be printed, in every news paper in America printed be cause what hd says, as all know but few have the courage to pro claim is as true 8 that we live and breathe and suffer, as true as that there is a God who. will one day have a reckoning with those who have inverted 'and abused his best gifts and richest blessings. Every honest man and woman who reads this extract will love Dr. Tuttle for his noble words. To-day the Church is not free. In the wealthier ones the pulpits are under the influence of the money god. It is a sad fact; a sad fact. Howt, do I know? What right have I to make this utterance? This, tny friends: That a rieh man is neyjjr ..turned out of the churches, or -very seldom; the richer he is, the less danger there is of excommunicating him Why is it? Because we have got to that age in the world when the spirit of rivalry manifests itself in a pride of the most costly churches, and costly churches mean that rich men must give, and great cortly temples are built. Of course it won't du to de nounce from tha pulpit a roan who gives his motley. The Church takes it for granted that it nust not turn him out Bring out the inouey; let it come from whiskey; let it come from cigarettes; let it come from gam bling; no matter, it is notour busi ness to see where the money comes from. We will take it (as one of the best men I ever knew said) and mukegood use of it. I chal lenge any man in Hi s Church to-day to show a single passage of Scrip ture for taking the Devil's money and consecrating it to God's use. 1 challenge it God told Abra ham not to take so much as a shoe httchct from that old king he whipped. Did old Abraham say, I guess I will take this gold and consecrate it to good use? God told Israel in all her wars not to take anything from her enemies lest they should say that God's cause was getting rich , by them; that Israel might bo ever independent of her enemies, and forever dependent upon the God oi her salvation. God does not de sire that men whooppress the poor should bring a penance into the Church'. They nay turn to the churches, they can't turn to Christ. The Church says, wa will take your great gifts aud endow our colleges and build our mag nificent churches..' Do you remember how Znccheus came down front thut tree and how he caino to Christ? He was a publican and a rich man. He got to Christ by restoring all that he might have taken from others by false accusation, or otherwise. They make money hy crushing th poor, and then coma and tone for it by occupying the high CHARGED WITH ARSON A A Latts Arrested on a Grave Charge T. H. MARTIN IMPLICATED. 3 Durham is Agog Over a Sonso tion in Which one of its Mos Prominent Citizens in Accused Of. a Monstrous Crime Latta Bound over to Court. On Sunday night people passing the Court house . on their way home from church noticed there was more crowd around the build ing than usual, bat dreamed not that Thcs. H. Martin, president of the Tobacco Association and A. A. Lutta. foreman of his prize room .. . were there, charged with planning and attempting to execute the burning of Mr. Mar tin's five story prize house on Ihursduy morning last. The charge seemed so mons trous and unreasonable that it was hard to make people beHeve it, and Monday much business was neglected while trying to find out facts. When Mayor Peay took his scat on the Judge's Stand in the County Court house for, a preliminary hearing, the room was tilled with the best citizens of the town. Fred A. Green an- "' peured for the State and Judge R. W. Winston and R. B. Boone for the defense. After considera ile time was spent by the discus sion of the warrant, Latta was put on trial The first witness put upon the stand was Moses Irvine confiden tial clerk and book-keeper for Thos II. Martin. His testimony W48 in effect that Latta said to him that he, Latta,- had been offered $250 to burn the prize house, and advised him Irvine not to sleep in the house. That he thought he had dissuaded Latta from doing so, and that in conse quence he said nothing to his em ployer about it, but did tell his friend, Arthur Lyon, of the conver sation, and asked him to watch the house while he was gone. This testimony was corroborated by Lyon. Testimony of all the witnesses was that the house was set on fire. It was stated that had the house been burned the nsurance would not have covered the loss. Messrs Boone and Winston spoke strongly for the defense. They were followed by Green for the Slate, who made a ringing speech, proving himself a match for both opponents. Mayor Peay bound Latta over to the Superior Cmniiial Court which meets in January, in the sum of $1,000. The entire town feels that a calamity has befallen it, but gen erally the leopleare disposed not to judge too hasty, but to await further development. Highest Of all in Leavening Power. Latest TJ. S.
