POLICE GET 0 BURGLAR Entered House at Durham But Was Frightened Away The Farthing Notes (Special to The Times.) Durham, Aug. 22. Jim Leathers was arrested yesterday morning on the charge of entering a dwelling housy In the night time with leloni ous intent and boutnd over to the next term of superior court under a bond of $3,000. Yesterday morn ing shortly after midnight, Mrs. S. P. Smith, a member of the Durham colony of deaf m;ites, was awakened by a noise and saw a negro stand ing at the foot of her bed. She managed to give an alarm which frightened the culprit who fled through a window, leaving a pair of shoes he had removed in order to make a noiseless entry. The police were notified an soon an officer was on the scene, in a few hours the policeman saw a negro walking around in that vicinity barefooted and followed him. The man went to Mrs. Smith's house and when he approached a window be was ar rested. He admitted that he wa3 looking for a pair of shoes and identled the pair found at the house, but denied that he entered the house. He said that he was passing thlre earlier in the night when he removed his shoes to take out a gravel that was hurting, ills foot, that while his shoes were off he heard a noise from fie house that frightened him so he ran away. In court he did not make any staie ment whatever, and on the evidence of M;s. Smith, several other cor roborating witnesses and the police man he w.y held for' the next term of court. One of the easiest arrests of a blind tiger occurred here yesterday morning. A man by the name ol Taylor was seen by a policeman to come out of a suspected place car rying a small bundle. The officer had curiosity enough to investigate the package and found that it was corn whiskey. Taylor then told tl at he ha.d just purchased it from Ed George, and of course George was soon In the tolls of the law. He was adjudged guilty and sentenced to the roads for a term of eithl months, but appealed and his bond was fixed at $1,000. Scarcely a 'jay passes that one or more blind tigers is not arrested here, yet the business continus wiih no noticeable abatement. Jus', as soon as or Is sent to the roads' an other takes his place. The local publicity committee of the laymen's missionary movement has planned to give the convention that , meets here October last and Novmber first the widest kind of publicity throughout the twenty counties that are in this district. All the newspapers and every church will be called upon to aid in tell ing the objects of the convention, and it Is fully believed that more than one thousand people will be in attendance. The creditors of Mr. G. C. Farth ing met here yesterday for the pur pose of determining the best method of dealing with the unfortunate financial straits that he has gotten into. He endorsed many notes for Dr. Shepard of the National Train ing School, and these notes are now being pressed. The total sum of Mr. Farthings indebtedness is around $290,000, all but about $50, 000 of which is on the Shepard pa pers. He has property here valued at close to $350,000, but If. it were all put on the market at once to settle these outstanding papers it would naturally depreciate the value, causing a hardship on Mr. Farthing and probably the creditors. Yesterday's meeting was for the pur poseo f arranging the best method of settling this without doing in jury to any of the parties concern ed. The first action against Mr. Farthing on account of these papers was started a short time ago, and since then more than a score of suits have been instituted. WILSON IN GOOD SPIRITS Engaged In Ball Tossing Game With His Youthful Nephew. Seagirt, Aug. 22. Governor Wil son was in a happy frame of mind today. He was out early after breakfast for a stroll over the lawns about the summer capital. His youthful cousin, James Woodrow, ran across him whistling. Wood row suggested a game of "catch" to the governor. 'Til get the gloves," suggested Woodrow. "I gueBS not," excused the governor. "I'm used to playing ball with barehands." Then they engaged in a "catch" game, the governor getting much enjoy ment out bt tossing the ball to bis cousin, sometimes putting over a swift one that burned his kinsman's hands. Within the past week the governor has shown noticeable ira provement in health and spirits. This is explained by the fact that much of the campaign details have been completed. The governor to day had no special appointment, planning to devote his time to cor 'respondence. Dish Pans 25 Cents. Saturday Specials. TOYLAND. The Store of Quality.

LETTERS FROM THEPEOPLE All Bring Encouraging News to the Democratic Headquarters New York, Aug. 2--More than 10,000 letters have been received at democratic national headquarters in the Fifth avenue building, New York,, within the past week from ev ery state in the uniAii, dealing with the political condition throughout the country. These letters have been examined with care by the various bureaus, and the majority of them contained information of the; most encouraging nature, as well as valuable sugges tions to the democratic leaders. Never in the history of the party have the chances been son bright tor a democratic victory. Betting is a matter of opinion, but the odds as quoted in New York, have gone to 2 on Wilson. At the opening of the campaign the odds were from 1 to 2. During, the past few days there were many wagers beiug offer ed at 2 to 1 on the. success of the democratic ticket. So far there have been but few wagers recorded, the majority of the Wall street sharks declaring that the odds will go to at least 3, and possi bly 4 to 1 in favor of Wilson. With the opening of the demo cratic headquarters in Chicago this week, the western campaign will.be in full swing. The notification ceremonies to Governor Marshall took many of the active leaders to Indianapolis, and they went on to Chicago, where Sec retary Joseph E. Davles, of the na tional committee, will be in charge. The national headquarters In New York will continue to cover the en tire country, but the Chicago head quarters will pay special attention to all the states west of Illinois. The literature will be mailed from Chi cago headquurters and a corps of speakers will slump the various dis tricts. Governor Norris, of Montana, is Insistent that Wilson and Marshall will gain the electoral vote in Mon tana next ' November. In a telegram to national bead quarters, he wires: 'Every indication 'Is that Mon tana's electoral vote will be for Governor Wilson. . The democratic handbook for 1912 will be off the press by the first of September. This book is by all odds the most pretentious, complete, ac curate and interesting book that has been turned out by a national com mittee in more than a score of years. The first issue wiimumber 60,000 books, each copy containing more than 300 pages. Robert W. Wooley, who was In charge of the gathering of evidence for the Stanley steel committee, and who is one of the best-known. Wash ington newspaper men In the coun try, has been devoting ail bis time to the preparation of the handbook, assisted by an able corps of' other Washington correspondents and members of congress, The book is being printed on. good paper, well bound, and the demo cratic arguments are so marshalled that the boek is sure to prove a valuable document to all frienda of democracy. Congressman A. S. Burleson, chairman of the speakers bureau of the democratic national committee, is now in active charge. - While Con gressman Burleson expects to devote the majority of his time to the New York headquarters, there have been so many requests for- him to take in an effort to get .to the bottom come to light as a result of the mur t lie stump, that It is expected he will do so. Gov. Woodrow Wilson's visit to the democratic national headquar ters in the Fifth avenue building, New York, brought to light the com plete democratic spirit of the man. Governor Wilson's visit was unan nounced and he did not reach head quarters until 8 o'clock at night. He found Josephus Daniels, chairman of the publicity bureau, and his force hard at work. And this was true in every other department, "We are glad to do it governor," remarked one busy stenographer. "And I am glad to hear you say that in such a cheerful spirit," re plied the democratic nominee. Governor Wilson discussed with the carpenters, who werebusy put ting up partitions in the publicity room, the neatness and dispatch with which they were carrying on the work. r "1 am glad to see you men taking so much pride in the furnishing ot these headquarters, even though they are to be temporary," said Gov ernor Wilson. "The working man today, 1 have noticed, adds a person al touch in his work, and seems to take a pride in it and that is a mighty good sign." Readers of the Commoner, Wil liam J. Bryan's paper, continue to contribute towards the Wilson and Marshall newspaper campaign fund. Colonel Bryan today sent his sec ond check for $430,-the contribu tions ranging from 25 cents to $5. Col. Robert Ewing, through his papers, the New Orleans States and the Slireveport Times, has collected over $3,S0 from the state of Louisiana. L. T. Russell, proprietor and edN tor of the Elizabeth Times, Eliza beth, N. J., has collected over $1,600 from Union county, N. J. The harmony telegram that Chair man William F. McCombs, of the democratic national committee, sent to the California democrats, who were split in two factions, has had the effect of solidifying ll elements of the party. Mr. McCombs wired the state chairman and national com mitteeman, saying that every true friend of Governor Wilson would work la harmony with any other democrat. Today Chairman Mc Combs received a letter from R. H. De Witt, the chairman of the demo cratic state committee of California, In which he said: '"We are happy to report to you that the meeting of our state cen tral committee resulted in a love feast. A harmony committee of ten was appointed and the report was almost unanimously adopted. Our party is now solidified, and all unite in carrying California for Wilson and Marshall." In addition, McCombs received letters from Mr. J. B. Sanford, the national committeeman, and Mr. Theo. A. Bell, who was Speaker Clark's most active supporter, con gratulating him on hiB successful ef forts in restoring harmony among California democrats. They predict ed that the reunited California dem ocracy would give Wilson and Mar shall the electoral vote ot the state.
