J.L;
Supt. Mfebane's Chief Clerk
Charged With
HOUSE BURNING
Stoutly Denlss he Allegation and Says it
Is Political Perseontlon So Says
Sapt. Msbane Graham Taken
to Newton.
J L Graham, chief clerk in the
office of C M Mebane, superinten
dent of public instruction of the
state of North Carolina was placed
under arrest at the superintendent's
office on the second floor of the su
preme court building this morning
at ten o'clock.
The arrest was made by Sheriff
Jones of Wake on a warrant sworn
out in Cabarrus county charging
Mr Graham with willfully and ma
liciously burning the dwelling In
which he lived In Newton in March
of last year.
The young mau was uon-plussed
when the papers were first served
upon him. He however attributed
the action to political persecution
and has since conducted himself in a
creditable manner, answering freely
all questions put him and explain
ing the matter to the satisfaction of
his friends.
The action is brought by a Wil
mington insurance company, which
refuses to pay a claim of MrGra
ham's for the destruction of his pro
perty during the fire.
Mr. Graham was placed in the
custody of Deputy Sheriff Rivers,
who remained with him during the
morning at tne superintendent s
office.
Mr. Graham was Been by a I'kkhh-
Visitor reporter and he talked freely
and franklv of the affair. Starting
back to its inception, Mr Graham
said.
"On the fifth of March of last year
my wife and myself went to Rowan
county on a visit to my mother. We
left our house, which is situated in
the town of Newton, about 6 o'clock
in the afternoon. Two hours after
wards the house took fire and was
burned. I was notified next morn
ing by a telegram and returned home
at once, reaching Newton the night
of the sixth. Very littleof my prop
erty was saved and the dwelling,
which was the Presbyterian parson
age, was destroyed.
"The house was valued at about
$600. I carried insurance on my
personal and house bold effects,
which was valued at over $800, in two
companies. I had a policy in the
Phoenix, of Hartford for $200, and
another In the Carolina, of Wilming
ton, for $500. "
"I took out the policy in the Carolina
September, a year ago, when I went
to house keeping and in the Phoenix
a month later. The Phoenix has
paid me $131, the amount that I
claimed. But the Carolina company
has refused to make settlement. The
only . excuse made was that my
claim was not properly made out.
My claim, which was for $338,
was returned to me. I had a
complete list of the property de
stroyed. In alleging that my claim
was not properly made out the com
pany said that the affidavit was not
prepared by the magistrate who
liyed nearest me and that It was not
dated. -The magistrate who madeout
the affidavit was mayor of the town
and testified to my good character.
Mr. Kenyon, the nearest notary
who is president of the Catawba
bank testified to my good character.
The claim was returned to the com
pany, but I have never received a
reply.,. I have been pressing the
claim in court and it is to be heard
the 15th of this month. " .
"All I have to say is that this is a
malicious, political prosecution.
have no fears as to the outcome when
the case is heard. This action
is taken to bring prejudice to
bear on my case for damages. Noth
ing was said of this until I changed
my politics about the time of the fire
Certain democrats are the instiga
tors of it. I want a speady hearing
and desire that the case be settled at
once. If it is not I shall have it
brought before a justice of the su
preme court."
That was the youctf man's state
ment of his case. Mr Graham is
a good looking young man, 24 years
of age. Of course he is annoyed but
displayed no unusual concern. He
Is an Odd Fellow . and Mason and
comes of one of the best families in
Rowan. He married into the family
of Mr Jas Brown, a prominent cot-
ton manufacturer.
Superintendent Mebane endorsed
what Mr. Graham said. He is sure
that it is political persecution. Mr
Mebane says that Mr Graham had
the highest endorsements of all the
people in his section for the clerk
ship." He lived next door to Mr
Graham and fought the fire which
destroyed his home.
Mr Graham was carried to Newton
this evening in oustody of Sheriff
Rivera. He will stop at the hotel
there. Mr Graham will try and get
a hearing of the cafe tonight.
A special to the Charlotte Obser
ver says Charlotte detectives worked
up the case.
THE EUCHRE CLUB.
Charmingly Entertained Last Evening by
- MissLltfa qloka.
The Raleigh 'duohre Club was
most delightfully entertained last
evening by Miss LillieHkisat Park
r, . . . . I
nace on tuouni street, Tbe Jtuciire
Club has enlivened the winter In
Raleigh social circles with a series
of most enjoyable entertainments
and it was the universal verdict of
all the guests last ' evening that the
occasion was one of the most brilli
ant, successful and thoroughly de
lightful of the season. The atten-
ance was large, ' the Dlavinar was
spirited, and interest was at the
highest tension throughout. The
game of progressive euchre was
played with approved method and
ne skill was evinced by many of
the players, the contest growing
very animated toward the close.
To liss Hicks, the charming and
accomplished hostess, will belong
the distinction of havinar surprised
her guests with a most unique and
pleasing innovation. When the
players seated themselves at their
respective tables they found their
score cards before them decorated
with beautiful hand-painted carna
tions, whioh wore so true to life
that at first glance they gave one the
impression of the real living fra
grant flower. This was the handi
work of the fair hostess beTself and
was executed with such dainty skill
and artistic taste. as to command the
admiration of ajl the guests, who
eagerly preserved them as valued
souvenirs of the happy accasion.
The lady's prize was won by Miss
Janie Andrews and the gentlman's
by Mr: Perrin Busbee. The former
was a superb clusterof rich crimson
carnations and the latter a pretty
silver hat mark. The priaes were
presented to the winners by Mr.
Greek O. Andrews. One of the most
pleasant features of the evening was
the delightful refreshments which
were tempting and delicious and
which were highly enjoyed by the
party.
It was near the midnight hour
before the guests said reluctant
adieux. Rarely has a more brilliant
and happy party ever assembled in
a Raleigh drawing room, and the de
parting guests were profuse in their
expressions of congratulation and
pleasure tothe fair hostess who had
afforded them an evening of such
perfect enjoyment.
The following were those present:
Misses Lillie Hicks, Janie Andrews,
Florrie Jones, Sophie Busbee, Myra
Pearce, L. McAden, L. Busbee, Lil

ALDERMEN MEET-
Street Car Company Most Act To Collect
Back Taxes.
The Board of Aldermen met last
night in regular monthly session.
The meeting was a most important
one and many matters of public in
terest were acted upon.
The admirable report of the street
committee which was printed in yes
terday's Press-Visitor was adopt
ed. The street car company will have
to rebuild in 60 days or their fran
chise be forfeited. It is stated that
number of prrties outside the city
have made inquiries about the possi
bility of securing the street car fran
chise.
Alderman Boushall submitted the
report of the light committee, stat
ing that since the city is not prop
erly lighted, and as the contract for
street lights expires in May, sealed
bids had been advertised for, to be
received on or before February 5,
1897, to provide seventy arc electric
lights of 1,200 candle power to burn
all night, and only two replies have
been received, therefore the com
mittee recommend that the mayor
appoint a committee of five, who,
with the aid of the city attorney,
shall give out a contract by Febru
ary 12, 1897, for the lights above
mentioned. This recommendation
was adopted .
There has been a great laxity
among many of our cituens in tne
payment of taxes for many years.
There is at least $25,000 in back tax
due the city. It is stated that sever
ai persons owe more than a thou
sand dollars in back taxes and that
they are able to pay. Mayor
Russ was authorized to prepare a
bill and have it passed by the Leg
islature enabling the city to collect
back taxes for the ten years from
1885 to 1895. If the bill passes a
special tax collector will be appoint
ed to make collectionof all arrear
ages-
An ordinance was passed rcquir
the city tax collector to settle with
tne city in tne same manner as a
sheriff or tax collector settles with
a board of county commissioners.
The tax collector will in the future
be held responsible for the tax list
and must settle accordingly.

if anything. A great deal of time is
killed in the Senate daily and the
Major has been reflecting on the sub

Mother, where isyour boy tonight?
Are there any mothers in the city
whose tearful eye and anxious look
betray their anxiety to answer the
above question? We fear there are
many. Once a good mother was
talking to this writer and remarked,
'I am never uneasy about my boy
if I know he is at the lodge. "
No motuer need be the least anx
ious about her boy when she feels
sure that he is learning lessons of
wisdom, of morality and sobriety,
and is associating with men who are
trying to build up, not tear down his
moral character. How many mothers
overlook these facts and discourage
their boys from connecting them
selves with our order.
The outlook for the order in this
State, we are glad to say, is daily
brightening. A few months ago it
was gloomy indeed. To have look
ed over the field at that time and
formed a conclusion from appear
ances would have caused the strong
est faith to waver. It seemed at
that time that work us we might
nothing in the way of advancement
could be accomplished. It looked
frequently that only a few of the old
faithful ones would soon be left and
they ' Feel like one who treads alone
some banquet hall deserted.'' But
since the murky clouds of politi
cal excitement are being
dissipated, the ray of sunshine be
gins to break through and we can
almost feel the warmth of fraternity
again. The correspondence of the
Grand Secretarys office is a wonder
ful barometer in this line; only a
few months ago no enquiries were
made in regard to t' e order. It
was seldom that any one could be
induced to say anything of an en
couraging nature, but now the baro
meter indicates a decided change,
and the old veteran who takes daily
observations smiles his approval
and steps out with greater boerancy
in the performance of his arduous
duties. May the prospect continue
to brighten.
