.. in Increase.
After being in session over two
hours, the county board of eipializa
tion, wliic;h in composed of the board
of county commissioners and tit
county assessor, adjourned this nf
teraoon to meet again July 24th. .
resolution to appoint a commute
consisting- of Chairman Johnson
County Attorney .Betckwith, Audito
Holding and Assessor Gowan to go
inlo the differences of the various
assessors and hear complaints as to
the assessments, was withdrawn at
ler the proposition had been fought
by Commissioner Brewer. The en
tire boafcl will meet Saturday, July
24th, and in the meantime the conn
ty assessor and his assistants will
prepare the books. for the board.
Several persons ' appeared before
the board today in the matter of tiie
increased valuation of their property
Wake County will show an increase
of approximately $0,000,000 over the
last assessment and the taxes that
will be added to the treasury will
be about $75,000. The taxable pro
perty last year amounted to $ 22,000
000, including real estate, railroad
property and personal property, and
the increase over this is about thirty
per cent. The increase will be most
ly in real estate, a large part of
this being in Raleigh township. Out
side of Raleigh township the valua
Hons will Increase from $l.:jo to
$4.00 an acre.
Although all the books have not
been made up yet, it is safe to say
that the sheriff will have on his books
the sum o,f $350,000 for collection
The board of equalization, which
is composed of the county coinniis-
sdonen and Mr. R. T. Gowan, co.unty
asse jor, may reduce a good many of
the valuations, but it was believed
today thatithe Increase in all pro
perty values would not be under
$6,000,000. It is thought that Wake's
increase will be greater than that of
any other county in the State.
ARGl'MKXT IX SKK CASK.
Assigned ns u Profligate and Hypo
crite by District Attorney.
Chicago, June 10. Evelyn Arthur
See,- was accused of hiding behind
women's skirts in the opening argu
ment of the evidence begun In Judge
Honore's , court today. Assistant
State's attorney Burnliam pointed out
that four women had been called to
the witness stand, and two of them
admitted writing what the proceeu
tion considers the most daugerous
portions of "The Book of Truth."
He declared the testimony had
been of a nature which probably
would not be heard again in, many
years. Defendant's Attorney Cant
well made a motion to take the case
from the jury but was overruled
Burnham's arraignment of the de
fendant as a hypocrite and profligate
veiling his misdeeds with the cloak
of religion was scathing.
PRESIDENT AND PARTY
"Washington, D. C, July 10 The
president's yacht, Mayflower, with

morning at 7 o'clock .ending a two

Lee's career ns a spendthrift has
few parallels in rnminalogv. Scarce-
had he looted the cruiser s sale on
February 17th and disappeared from
the Meet, before a mysterious indi
vidual by the name ol A. V. Car
miehael commenced a nietioric ca-
eer as " prince ot spenders" In the
ities of the southern Atlantic sea-
oard. : 1 his seeming millionaire en
deared liimsell to the heart, of hotel
waitresses, hellliovs and chauffeurs
bv passing out' $luil lulls as though
thev wore cigar coupons. NoTTiIng
wa stoo good lor lnni: not lung too
expensive, and at every iiirn ot the
hand he was rondv with a huge
bankroll to reward the favors lie
asked ol others.
rtnrlv in his wanderings he turn
ed up In Atlaiiln, where m a few
short davs he distributed siithcient
money to make li mi known through
out the continent.. He presented a
lady manicure wjilh $ I. mid bank
note for the pleasure of her company
during a taxi cab rule and tipped
the chauffeur with (he comparatively
moderate sum of $100 The waiter
who served his table received $"0
after each meal, as an incentive to
prompt service. A hellbov, with a
jug of ice water invariably drew a
$20 bank note for his trip .upstairs.
The publicity that his lavisliness
brought him made a quirk move ne
cessary, and young I.ee with the gov
ernment detectives one jump in the
rear, changed his quarters success
fully to Washington, New York, Phil
adelphia and several southern cities,
becoming acquainted en route with a
Miss Auarey Kelsoy, who consented
to share the, young spendthrift's for
tune. .
In March they went to Europe,
where lie was easily trailed bv the
readiness with which he dispensed
his spoils. On June Sth he sailed
