A good-looking, well-dressed young white man, named C. C. Holland, who stated his occupation as telegraph op erator, and assistant station agent for the Aberdeen and Rockflsh Railroad at Raeford, was arrested In Fayettevllle this afternoon, on a warrant charging him with stealing a watch, pistol and razor from Mr. Clarence L. Pember ton. When taken to Police Head quarters he admitted taking the watch and razor, but- said he knew nothing of the pistol. He was bound over to the Crlm- lna ICourt in the sum of $100, which he has so far failed to give. Early In April Mr. Pemberton left his grip in the station at Raeford for few hours. When next he looked into It he found that a handsome gold watch, which had belonged to his grandfather, a pistol and a razor, had been taken from it. He made every effort to ' discover the thief, but with out success. At noon to-day a young man called at Prior's Jewelry store and tried to swap a gold watch for another one. Mr. Jack Tlllinghast, , whj waited on htm at once recognized the watch, and when the young man left without mak ing a trade, he notified Mr. Pember ton. A warrant was sworn out and shortly afterward Chief of Police Ben ton found the man and carried him to Beasley's jewelry store, where he had taken the watch for the purpose of having the Initials on It changed. The boy, for he Is hardly 21 years of age, at once admitted his Identity and acknowledged the theft. He has been at Raeford but a few months and previous to that was employed In the A & R. station at Hope Mills. He says his father is a physician in Clarkton, Va., and that his mother is dead.

Pointers For Those Who Expect to Attend. It is expected that Fayettevllle and Cumberland county will send a large number of veterans to the reunion, which is to be held in Richmond, this year than ever before. In view of this fact the following will be of in terest: Headquarters Third Brigade North Carolina Division, United Confederate Veterans. Wilmington, N. C, May 9, 1907. Gneral Orders No. 12: 1. At the reunion in New Orleans last year, "Old" Richmond won the prize of having the annual reunion of the Confederate' Veterans, which will be held May 30th to June 3rd, in elu sive. She bids you come with open arms and-homes, with as much zeal as In 1861, when in 1861 you went armed to defend her. 2. Veterans who are unable to pay board will be entertained free by the hospitable citizens of Richmond, and should send their names to Captain D. A. Brown, Jr., Richmond, Va. 3. The railroads have made the rate of one cent per mile, good until June 11th. There will be ample facilities for visiting the Jamestown Exposition at cheap rates. Tickets reading to Richmond and return account the Re union will be good returning from Norfolk. I 4. It is earnestly desired that every Camp in this Brigade send Its full quota of delegates, and in fact that every member of the Camps attend If it Is nosslble to do so. The close proximity of Richmond to our good old State, the small cost of attend ing, as well as the happy time In meet ing your old comrades In arms, should be sufficient Incentive to stimulate ev- evy true soldier to attend the Reunion. 5. The attention of the Camps Is called to the fact that It is necessary to remit the per capita tax to Adju tant General Mlckle, New Orleans, so as to have recognition. By order of JAS. I.
