Stoae was arrested In the eisttrn part of the State and brought here to jail for embezzling over a thousand dollars from the Kranlch and Bach Piano Company, the main point of interest ia the case was that a highly educated in fact a brll liant mind had been need for f rand and deception. But if the story which has leaked out -piece by piece concerning the why fores of Mr. Stone's defalcation are true, there has evidently been far too high an estimate placed on the bril liancy of that mind by tbe publle. Listen to the story aa we heard it a week ago: M. P. Stone is Walton E. Stone's father. He was at one time a man of considerable means, bat a year or so ago divided his property among his children. He is known to the public as the administrator of J.L. Stone, who died in thia city some years ago bat that is off the track of this story. Now, when the division of the father's prop erty came, Walton felt that he had been treated unfairly; that he had not received his just share of the prop erty. He even aocused his brother, A. B. Stone, of holding back from him money wniun he nouia rigntiuuy have had. So the years went on and Walton Stone grieved and became morbid on the subject of his wrongs, real or im aginary as they may be. Then he be came connected with the piano house. He had to give a considerable bond, and those who qualified were his brother and his father-in-law, W. D. Cole. Then through Mr, Stone's mind flashed the plan to embezzle, or "hold back" money from the piano house. Hie bondsmen were responsible and would have to pay; the company would lose no money; thus would he get from the brother the sum for which he was contending. This seems to have been, his reason ing on tne matter. At any rate, he was soon short in his accounts with the piano firm. For a year they both ered with the case, but then they chose harsh methods; and the man who wanted to "get even," was pat in jail It would seem that a man with so bril liant a mind should have foreseen the nevitable ooneei inoe. But let no man question Mr. Stone's intellectual abilitv. Is not President Taylor, of Wake Forest College reported to have said of him: 'I have taught a thousand minds, but h's was the noblest of them all 1" The story was picked up partly from those who know of Stone's family troubles. The key-note, however, is a letter written by Stone to Kranlch and Bach, consisting for the" most part of a recital of family wCes. The letter is twenty pages lowT It is now In the possession oftfrn.
