Msyor J. W. Turnage, are tonight guard

Bumti Hinith snd Burcher Smith, in
rarecrted therein on a number of
charges, will be liberated by their
friends.
It was upon arrest of the Smiths by
a posse of Hsrnett county citixens on
the charge of shooting into the house
of Mrs. J. W. Htewart while she slept,
wounding her slightly, that the Srvt
fears srose. No open outbreak had oc
curred when Mayor Turnage, aaticipat

sistance. Governor Craig was common!
cated with by the Adjutant General and
authority was conferred upon the mayor
of Dunn to call in the assistance of ths
local military company upon emergency.
Adjutant General Young himself In aa
automobile made the trip from Raleigh,
reaching Dunn in a blinding snow storm
and finding the detachment of fifteen
men under command of Lieutenant W.
D. Holland in charge of the situation.
Late this afternoon Lieutenant Hol
land reported to Adjutant General
Young that no trouble had occurred and
thnt ho believed nothing would occur.
To be safe, the detachment will remain
oa guard until the two mea are brought
before the court.
In addition to the shooting offense, ths
two wen are charged with a a umber of
other affsasas. Bnrais Smith appears
to have the largest Bomber against him.
He ia to face trial for larceny, block
ading, robbery, besides shooting into
