f The DUKhiifi ma... Semi-Weekly. EVERY TUESDAY AND FRIDAY. By ZEB. P. COUNCIL. ESTA2LISHED 1820. Entered at second class matter August 1903, at the postofflce at Durham, N. C, under the act of Congress of March t.87 Subscription Rates : One year .. ..$x.oo Six months. 50 cents . Three months. 25 cents Rates for advertising made known on . application. DURHAM. N. C, Feb. 18, 1908. Of course all the politicians are fighting on what to expect from various states and it is in teresting to note that in National affairs North Carolina Republi cans come in for consideration. It is well that our merchants ' and the business men otthe state generally should be interested in , cheaper freight rates on the railroads, and while they are at it it would not be out of place to try to arrive at some understand ing regarding express packages. There is no report that the police disturbed the mayor Sat- : urday night when they made a raid on some gamblers in the ' Loughlin building, but they were bound over uutil the court was in session and they were fined -in open court, as their names ap peared in the paper. As has been the custom for many years when something of an unusual nature occurs in pub lic affairs an investigation fol lows, and as soon as it is ar nounced that an investigation is on, the matter loses its public in terest for that . is an indication that the end is tear. " " ?; 5 ! t This is leap-year and it is al right for the girls to propose if they are in position to carry that end of the line and provide the home and the necessaries for the future existence. ' Of course many of these sometimes J$ve this to do, but they do not ' begin with that expectation. t There is little talk now of having an injunction against the building of the Roxboro road ex tension and borrowing money to 1 pay for it, but those that have say about such matters will net fcrget when the proper time comes and you may look out for such an expression to be made toward men that care nothingfor the wishes of the people. The fight on regardidgthe dis crimination of rates for Virginia t awns by the railroads is assum ing definite shape, and something is liable to be shown up in the matter before we are done with it It is to be hoped that the rates may be uniform without hanging fire so long that few of the present generation will care about it. The effort on part of some to discredit the motives of Hon. W. W. Kitchin may have some in fluence on his car.oidacy fcr the nomination for governor, but if you will be careful in reading the papers that are giving such mat ters preference in their columns you will only find that they arethe same that have been in favor of some other candidate from the beginning. If the vet results of criticisms ffered to candidates by their enemies could be figured, we are of the opinion that much of the fuss raised about some act thai was calculated on its face to in jure them, would be found to work to their advantage: In the first place their friends will nol believe the reports and go to work the harder to offset any in jury that may have caused. The friends of the opposing candi dates are likely to inveniigate, which sometimes show up the life of the candidate in question to Wtttr advantage than they Death oIWJB. Lilly. Mr. W. B. Lilly, a student at Trinity College, and a member of the sophomore class, died at the Watts hospital this morning be tween six , and seven o'clock Mr. Lilly was taken sick with la grippe about a week ago, but was not considered seriously ill till Sunday when his case developed into pneumonia. Since that time until his death his friends have been most deeply concerned con cerning his condition. The re mains were taken to Albemarle this morning accompanied by his father, two brothers and a num ber of students representing the various college organizations with which Mr. Lilly was con nected. A deep gloom is over the en tire college community. ; Mr. Lilly was a strong, well develop ed roan in every sense of the word. He was a member of the Young Men's Christian Associa tion. He hed the love and es- eemofthe whole college, and was considered one of the most popular students of Trinity. Several members of his fra ternity, the president of his class, the president of the Columbian Literary Society, a member of he faculty, and one of Ithe bas ket ball players accompanied the remains to Albemarle where the uneral services will take place tomorrow. About two hundred students and members of the acuity were at the station this mm. morning and accompanied the body to the train. All college activities were suspended , till eleven o'clock. , , ' Mrs. LD.HcIrer Deal After a lingering illness, dur ing which loving relatives and riends did til that could be done for relief, Mrs. M. D. Mclver died at her home Sunday ' night Fhe end came peacefully, and she was surrounded by her child' fen and husband. Mrs. Mclver was 46 years old and twice married. By the un ion of her first husband and her self there was one child, Mr. W, w. Barrow, who Is an employee of The Herald. She leaves three childrenfby the second wedlock, Aioert aged nine, ixiwara, six m ii w m m and a little girl infant .There is left her aged 'mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Rollins, two brothers, Messrs. : Wayland Rollins, of Washington, D. C, and E. T. Rollins, of this city, and two sis ters, Mesdames Phelps and Dix on, oflthia city. The funeral and burial took placethis morning at ten o'clock conducted by Revs. G. T. Adams and E. R. Leyburn. The inter ment was in Maplewood ceme tery. Prisoners Escape. News was receivedhereMonday of a jail delivery at Hillsbrro Snnday night in which four pris oners escaped, one returned and surrendered and the other three have not been heard from. The ' escape was effected by breaking a hole in the wall by two white Smen, Arkes Thomp son and Al Crabtree, and the two negroes that escaped were Will Hawkins and Henry Jones, the latter being the one th went to the home of the jailer and gave himself up. Nothing had been heard from the escaped prisoners today. The Crabtree man, or rather he is only a boy, hails from Dur ham, where the officers of the law are familiar with him and his methods of committing var ious crimes. In jail with the prisoners that escaped were several men that were charged with different crimes, among the number being Sim Bullock, charged with shoot ing his father-in-law. None of these made any effort to escape. Three blind tigers were pulled in Durham during tho la3t few days. They were bound over to the superior court where they will be given a chance to explain how they managed to dispose of Successful Bank Robbery. Hickory, Feb. 16. What was equal to a Western scene was the bold i robbery of the bank at Granite Falls, a town of several hundred inhabitants, of the C. & N.5 W. Railway, about six miles of Hickory, at 6 .o'clock last night, when. Cashier f W. G. Whisnant was held tip at the point of guns by three masked bandits, who took from the cash ier's ; desk $2,700, after 1 which locking him in the .vault and making good their escape. So far it is not known from whence they came or whither they went, but they were" evidently profes sionals, have looked the situation over before the daring deed and learned the customs of the bank, one of which was keeping open Saturday evenings 'for the ac comodation of the shop element, Saturday being pay day. The alarm was not given until this morning, when the where abouts 6f Cashier Wihshant was sought after by his home people when he failed to turn up at the breakfast hour. The search was begun and on entering the bank he cashier was heard in the vault trying to give the alarm, having . survived through the night owing to a small ventila tion in the vault One of the bank (officers about town, who was familiar with the combina- ion lock, was secured as soen as possible and Winshant given .his reedom. While the loss is quite an item to the small bank of $10,000 cap ital, it will not in the least affect its financial! standing as, aside rom all the stock-holders being men of means, the institution is associated with other " banks which have large capital. Just what reward will be of fered for the capture of the gang will not be known until the meet ing "of the directors to-morrow, but every effort will be made to run down the guilty parties. The occurrence has already been tele phoned to the neighbbringtowns, n order that the bandits may be intercepted before leaving this part of the State. The bank of ficials had for its protection $5,000 burglar insurance, the company of which doubtless will take a hand in capturing the hieves. The nearby occurrence has brought about much comment as to Hickory's unusual good safety whose safes are of the most mod ern burglar-proof build, as well as the thickest and most scienti fically built vaults in the coun try.. The Granite Falls ttanic win onen to-morrow for business as usual. The rim jsationai lianic here wired the Bank of Granite Falls that it would send to-mor row morning any necessary mon ey that might be needed in case of a run on the bank on account of the burglary.
