Harvest of Blind Tigers in Durham;
Durham, April 18. The most colos
si blind tiger raid in Durham's ig
noble record in that respect, wa
cotturamated this morning when 61
were rounded up and docketed for
the recorder's court.
Four dectives, employed by the
Raleigh agency, did the ferreting,
and the Durham officers did the
rest. At 2 o'clock this morning the
word was given. The entire police
force, first and second sargeants
and patrolmen, the county officers
and the chief of the officers, went
on a raid and brought in 11. They
kept it up until they had made 4r
cases among the negroes and 20
among the whites.
These arrests were of old offend
ers who have been -under suspicion,
under conviction and under clem-"
ency a long time. Some were new
ones. Two old white men, both
convicted and judgment suspended
were caught and they had money to
burn, but not enough to put up their
bonds last night. They appeared to
have done big business yesterday.

The Benefits of a
Savings Account
The benefits accruing from a
savings account are manifold.
The interest received is the
smallest benefit produced. To
lay aside a "snug little sum
for a rainy day" is a com
mendable undertaking, and
certainly worth all the effort
any savings account ever re
quired, when the "rainy day
comes. But satisfying as
these - benefits are, they have
not the merit that comes of
the training acquired in suc
cessfully conducting a savings
account. To have learned the
principles of economy is. to
have your independence and
happiness assured. ' Such are
some of . the. great values of a,
savings account This bank . en
courages such accounts by pay- ;
ing 4 per cent, interest' on :
them, compounded four times
a. year.
Checking accounts in any
amount cordially invited. '
Please call at the bank when
you are in town.
