he was doing a driving business
notwithstanding the fact that a
large box of the same kind of
whet stones were setting in the
door of the Salisbury Hardware
and Furniture Co.'s place, with a
card attached offering them at 5
cents each. So much for live ad
vertisings methods. The vender

uesd'iy ai d is slcwly improving.
C. E. Phillips, son of one of
Rowan's most progressive -and
substantial farmers, Paul M.
Phillips, has been elected princi
pal of the Mm roe public schools.
Mr. Phillips hae been a student at
Trinity college for several years

a big success in instructing the
youth. Mr. Phillips left last

of the schools Monday,
Senator Overman is spending

Mayor A. L. Smoot was called
to Old Trinitv. Friday night, to

William T. Overman,
Burglir Captured.
Fred Glosfom, a young white
man was arrested at Spencer Fri
day morning by Officer Cruse,
and faced a charge for burelarv
in the Rowan court Monday night.
The cause of the arrest was due
to the story told by the plantiff :
Friday morning about one
o'clock, J. I. Isenhour, of Spen
cer, hearing some one in his
room, struck a match and was
confronted by Glossom. The lat
ter grabbed the match, putting it
out, and ran, but had been recog
nized by Mr. Isenhour, who gave
the alarm and Officer Cruse took
up tne unase and soon arrested
Glossom, who offered no resist
ance. $20 was found on him and
he was placed in jail to await a
hearing in the, county court.
The $20.00 being held by tbe clerk
until that time. Evidently the
pair got together and fixed up
their testimony and the case was
d smissed for wsnt of probable
cause. Isenhour found his $50 00
in his coat pocket and admits that
he did not recognize the party who
stole his pants. Isenhour and
Glossom are chums.
Where did the Whiskey Cone From.
There is an element of mys
tery in the capturing of four jugs
of whiskey in the rear of O. M.
Bailey's saloon last Tuesday
morning. The story as published
in last week's Watchman was just
as it was give us by one of the
officers who participated in the
capture, but Mr. Bailey states
positively that the jugs were not
taken from his buggy as stated,
this, therefore, is a matter be
tween the officers and Mr. Bailey.
The mysterious part therefore
arises when the question is
asked: ''Where did the four
jugs come from and how came
them there?" Soon after the
seizure four men, W. M. Stock
ton, I. E. White, J. H. Jones and
S. A. Simian took out writj of
claim and delivery for them and
the goods were released by the
trial justice, J. C Kesler, and C .
M. Bailey paid the cost. A search
of the express and freight records
failed to reveal any such consign
ments, bo the question of "Where
did the four jugs of whiskey comya
from and how came them there,"
goes unanswered as yet.
Fine Undertaking Parlors.
A short visit to the undrtaking
parlors of Geo. W. Wright is all
that is necessary to satisty any
that these parlors are second to
none in the state. He has large
and spacious rooms neatly arrang
ed, handsome show cases well
......... . -
stocked with all grades or comns
and caskets. He has just added
considerably to this department,
and, besides being able to proper
ly care for every want of his cus
tomers, he has room for the con
duct of services, which is a con
venience here-to-fore unsupplied
who has here.
With Drawn Revolver Compells Woman to
get in Buggy.
A man, who gave his name as
Carter," was arrested on North
Main street Monday afternoon,
charged with drawing a pistol on
a woman and compelling her to
get in a buggy with him, after
which be drove off m the direction
of Spencer. The police were soon
informed and Officers Cruse and
Jordan went in pursuit of them,
overhauling them near the switoh
The man was arrested after a hard
tussle in which he kicked officer
Jordan, severely in the groin and
in return was knocked down by
Jordan, who, with the help of Offi
cer Cruse, put the nippers on
him and brought him up town on
a street car. The wcman, who
gave her name as Webb, drove the
buggy back up street and went to
the Southern Hotel, near the de
pot . Carter was taken there also
and, after putting up the necessa
ry money to cover his bond for his
appearance, was turned loose. It
is said he and the woman left town
Monday night. Nothing can be
learned of the woman, but it
seems that they were, or had been
friends. She denies that he drew
the pistol on her, but parties who
were near, and saw the whole oc
currence, say that he drew the pis
tol and presented it in her face
and commanded her to get in the
buggy.
