NORFOLK SOUTHERN STATION AT PANTEGO ROBBED ' Norfolk Southern Railroad special gent of the northern and Beaufort f division! are looking for a robber who Friday night or Saturday morning en tired the station at Pantego, in Beau fort county, and made off with $3.50 tod check, the amount of which is not known FROM BLUE GRASS STATE Bringing Gabriel Pool, Wanted For Violation of State Prohibition Laws, Who Jumped Bond Last Spring Sheriff A. W. Taylor returned thin morning from Lexington, Ky., with Gabriel Poole, a middle-aged white man, who was arrested last spring for operating a still near Kelly's mill and skipped his bond. Poole disap peared from the courthouse immedi ately after signing the bond and was not seen again by a local officer until the sheriff walked into the Lexington police station and the man was turn ed over to him. Poole told the sheriff on the way back to Kinston that he was never more surprised in his life than when a policeman arrested him in a tobac co warehohse in Lexington, and stead fastly denied having been connected with the still at Kelly's mill. Poole, after leaving Kinston in the spring, located near Washington, N. C, made a crop of tobacco which he marketed there, and then went to Richmond, from which city he went to Lexington and secured employment. The sher iff furniahed the Lexington police in formation wnicn resulted in nis ar rest. A deputy was allowed to take the prisoner today to see his wife and family in the country. EXPENSIVE BOOKS MAY BE FAKED BOAT DAMAGES BRIDGE; TRAFFIC IS HELD UP. ! J - The fishing boat Pilgrim, a vessel ef large tonnage, crashed into the 'bridge of the Norfolk Southern Rail road between Beaufort and Morehead City late Saturday while attempting to go through the draw, and caused daman which blocked traffic until Sunday afternoon. Passengers and thai had to be transferred around the WEATHER SHOWS SIGNS OF DOING THE RIGHT THING. 7 After two-weeks' period of con tinued Inclemency, the weather this morning took turn for the better. The bright sun more than compensat ed for the low temperature of the early part of the day. Sunday even ing's little windstorm, of a few min utes' duration, was of sufficient se- verenesf to blow down eight or ten telephone poles about two miles south of the city. A few flakes of now fell on Sunday morning. OFFICER WITH EMPTY GUN HAD FIVE PRISONERS, j John Brock, Jones county deputy sheriff who brought Jonah Houston ; and Ave negroes through here late Saturday en route to Edgecombe county, where the men are to do time on the public roads, discovered after his arrival here that a big revolver which he carried was empty. Had the prisoners known it on the lonely road from Trenton here, something might have happened to John Brock. And by the way, it was Brock who, as a revenuer, arrested Houston fif teen years ago when he first began his long criminal career, an account of which is carried in another column. JUDGE ALLEN IN AN INTERESTING CASE . Judge Oliver Allen of Kinston has saued an order from New Hanover county Superior Court temporarily restraining the mayor and commis sioners of the town of Southport from taking any steps toward securing a system of waterworks and sewerage. Protesting citisens presented a peti tion for the injunction. In the com plaint, it was alleged that to secure the improvements a bond issue would ; be necessary, and that as a result the tax rate would have to be raised higher than is allowed by law. The real objection of the citisens is said to be to the officials acting too hastily. The protesting petitioners, it is be i tiered, are not really adverse to the Improvements, but thought the may ' or and board were about to be on the . point of entering into a contract with out securing . disinterested advice. Judge George Rountree wil hear the jnattar on the 28th. BROTHER SLAYS BROTHER p.

To the ordinary buyer a book is just a book. Ii it be the average novel of today, one may agree with the lady who buys only the books that are bound in blue without any considera tion for the text. Not that all modern fiction is bad, but, as the fellow said of fountain pens, most of them are worse than others. The famous Hoe library sale caus ed the indifferent public to stop and take some notice. Several of the Hoe volumes brought prices away up into the thousands of dollars, and the Gut- tenberg Bible from this wonderful li brary brought the record price of f 50,- 000. So the average buyer and read er of everyday books is wondering If the prices of books are going up with the cost of living. It now appears that a question arises as to the genuineness of some of the Hoe books. Experts do not all agree that they are originals. This should be of slight consequence to those that have paid their thousands for them, Such books are not bought for their text matter. Even though they be not genuine, they are "rare," and as it is this feature that is sought by collectors, possessors of these rare volumes should be satisfied. It is the ordinary buyer of books that must be careful and guard against counterfeits. The Free Press is distributing the New Modern Eng lish Illustrated Dictionary. The ob ject is to put an authentic and auth orttauve reference book into every home reached by The Free Press, and to encourage education. As there are dictionaries on the market that are not all they are claimed to be, it be hooves the average book buyer to be careful. There is only one way to get this wonderful book, which is ex plained elsewhere under the diction ary coupon. It will be wise to clip that coupon today and get started in the right way to get the best diction ary on the market This dictionary is brought up to the present date in accordance with the best authorities from the great est universities. 1 HEBER FRAZIER SUNDAY Dead Man Waa Victim of Bullet Prob ably Intended for Another It la Thought Assassin Wanted to Kill Red Bryant With no apparent cause whatever, Heber Frazier, 85, shot and instantly killed Sam Mills, 40, in the house of Red Bryant at Wyse's Fork, near the ' Lenoir-Jones counties line, Sunday evening at 7 o'clock. Frazier escap ed and had not been apprehended to day. All the parties are negroes. Frazier, according to the best ver sion of the murder obtainable, had been with the other men in Bryant's home. There had been no drinking so far as is known ; in fact, the dead man was of a reigious character and of irood reputation. Frazier had made one attempt to kill Bryant, for a rea son unknown, but had been disarmed and left the place. He returned, and possibly mistaking Mills, who was sit ing in a chair with his back to the slayer, for Bryant, seized a shotgun standing; handily by, pointed it at the unfortunate man and pulled the trigger. The range was so short that the full load of shot, entering the back of the victim's head, made no more of an abrasion than a .38 call bre pistol bullet would. Frazier, is believed, did not stop even long enough to ascertain his mistake, but fled into the woods.
