Dr. Weston Discovers New Evidence i" Rear Out His Theory. Iter. Dr. James H. Weston, now rec fv of the Episcopal church at Wilkes boro, writes Col. Olds an interesting letter. In it Dr. Weston says: "The librarian of Da vidson lhge has l e cently found a book in the colego li brary, entitled 'Life of Napoleon Jiona parte' I forget the name of the author in which is a portrait of Marshal Ney. Peter S. Ney read this book in 1S41. a few months before his death, and under the portrait of Ney he wrote In French: 'This Is not a. c. irreel likeness of Marshal Ney.' He then, in a pencil, drew on the same page, a sketch of Marshal Ney, with these words under neath: 'Ney. Hy himself. II fut chauve. t Me was beheaded). This picture in the bonk represents Ney as having; a full head of hair, while it is not true, as Marshal Neys memoirs state that he was bald-headed, or nearly bald. Th sketch id' Marshal Ney which P. S. No; drew is an accurate likeness of Marshal Ney, and also ery good one of lvier S. Ney. This Tmd. I think, is of gre.it importance. It is certainly very strong additional proof of the truth of my (he ory that P. S. Ney was Marshal Ney. It seems to me to clinch (he argument. This sketch of Marshal Ney. as made by P. S. Ney, together with some val uable notes written by the hitter, will appear in a few days In the Historical Magazine of Davidson College, a nd a review of my book (in collect ion with l his discovery ) w rit ten by mm oj' the profesors of the college, will accompa nv the publication."

The Crook Who Adopted Gov. 8cala' Name Caught at Madison. Wentworth, N. C, Feb. 24. The al leged "crook," Robert P. Lewis, who lias been "operating" under the name of the late Gov. A. M. Scales, of Greens boro, land State Senator Scales, of the same name), was arrested at Madison and is now safely lodged In the county jail at this place to await the coming; of the Texan sheriff who wants him for alleged forgery In that State. It is thought now that Lewis has been around here among his kin folks for some time, probably ever since he left Keysville. The sheriff from Paris. Texas. Is al ready on his way to North Carolina afler Lewis. It is thought t tint Lewis stayed In the woods last night and had gone In to got his breakfast Just when the of licers t ame up on him and had levelled on him willi their guns before he saw them. Lewis is wanted In Texas for forgery anil Jumped his ball bond, and the present arrest Is at the Instnnee of his bondsman who has had to suffer on his account. Lewis under the name of Scales, held a high position in religious and business life in Kevsville. nnd had fully won the - respect and regard of that community. so much so that detectives charge that eiti7.etis of the town aided Lewis, who was known there under his alias of A. M. St ales, to make his escape. His friends there made a strong ef fort to keep the Incident Quiet, and even the newspaper correspondents' were Induced to refrain from sending out the news about the fleeing man and the nnlv comprehensive reports con cerning the remarkable story of Lewis came from other sources. He is known In Marlon and Buchan an county, Va.. and in neither place has he the good reputation he succeed ed In establishing at Keysville, where though a fugitive from Justice wun the officers on his track, he had so impressed the people with his character that they did not believe him guilty. Levis' friends still maintain that ft he stands trial in Texas he will be cleared. ' . , t :e - 4 ' Mi, f- r tt
