NTHE COMPANY Hte KEPT' Qot Henry In the Lock-up on li.,....; "..: Sunday. .; Officer Scott ran into a crowd of gamblers yesterday afternoon oat near the old cotton mill. Several negroes were in the orowd and two of them were pitching dice for a pint of whis key. Just as one was' pulling the whiskey from his pocket, officer Scott walked up to the door. There was a break for the door on the opposite side of the house and before Mr. Scott could collect his thoughts negroes were, going into' nearby woods at a rapid rate. When the dust cleared away Henry "Leg-gins stood in the mid dle of the floor 4 'whence all but him had fled." Henry swore by all that y as good and . bad' that , he had not been gambling, but officer Scott, act ing on Henry's former record and judging him by the company he kept, provided a pair of bracelets and brought him up to the lock-up. Henry was convicted of gambling at the last term of court and sentenced to six months on the county roads, but bought his time. He now thinks he will have to buy it again. A BEAUTIFUL DRIVE. The Improvement On The Battle (2round Rod. A drive over that part of the Battle Ground road recently graded by the convicts is, when compared with the old road, sufficient to convince every body of the economy in establishing and maintaining good roads. The crooked, rough and steep road down the cemetery hill has been replaced by a graceful, curve of easy grade. It will positively make you feel good to go out and look at it. ' It is a most beautiful road, broad enough for two vehicles to drive abreast and turn with ease, while for wheeling it Is away beyond anything we have had. To the energy and perseverance of those who first took hold of the road improvement matter we feel greatly indebted. The work already done clearly demonstrates the wisdom of the move, and from all over the county now comes the cry: We want our roads worked. Take This Chance, Boys. Why not get Greensboro and Char lotte football teams to play a game here during the tobacco fair.

W. H. Holleman, assistant post master at Apex, was tried before U. S. Commissioner Nichols at Raleigh Saturday on the charges of detaining and opening mail matter and of send ing obscene matter through the mails. He was bound over to Federal court on both charges. The mail intercepted was correspon dence between Arthur Edwards, of Cary and Miss Willie Hicks, of Holly Springs. Miss Hicks is a cousin of Holleman and he being infatuated with her was jealous of the attention paid her by yonng Edwards. His jealously led him to intercept and read their letters which had to pass through the Apex office. He finally became so bold that he stopped one of Miss Hicks letters and wrote one in its stead. He then wrote one himself in which he called Edwards some very ugly names. The case was worked up by Inspec tor Gregory, of this city, and the chain of evidence seems to be com plete. . .

FUSION JUDGE DRUNK. Judge Norwood Cusses Out Russell the Kusser. Windsor, N. C, Sept. 17 The peo ple of Bertie, and especially the good people of Windsor, were treated Thursday to the degrading and hu miliating sight of seeing one of the Superior court judges of this fusion cursed state of ours drive through their county and principal town, Windsor, their county seat, so beastly drunk that he did not- know or care whether he was the Hon." W. L. Nor wood, judge of the Twelfth district of North Carolina, or not. Judge Norwood arrived at Aulander early in the morning and was soon in the pitiful predicament of being unable to navigate, and was assisted by the agent of Aulander in procuring con veyance to Windsor, where he arrived about 1:30 o'clock, so drunk, he and his driver, that they drove through the tow a to all hotels and kept travel ing until they reached the river, and could go no further, and of course turned and came back. Some friend seeing that it was Judge Norwood, had them stopped at the ho tel and helped take him out of the buggy and carried him to a room where he was looked after, and by careful nursing and good treatment, was brought around all right so as to be able to convene court Thursday morning, though, it must be said, he was not at all himself, and his charge to the grand jury, consisting of twelve white men and six negroes, covered every phase of the criminal law, from the highest crime of treason to a com mon ordinary drunk, and if his hou or's charge is carried out to the letter we may look for a true bill against his honor, which would have to wait till he was impeached or his term of office expired, and then could be taken up and disposed of as the case might de mand. His conduct was very ridicu lous at Aulander, and his compliments were paid to his Excellency Governor Russell, in very strong language indeed, so strong that some gentleman asked his honor why he voted for such a man, and Judge Norwood replied that it was "none of ms damned dus iness."
