L, Tilley yesterday IrOught back from Lee county, one George Roberts, charged with tbe worst sort of assault upon a .portion mrster of the Seaboard. Roberts was on the train that was wrecked at Hamlet killing so many Din-ham: people. As he passed a sec tion gang working 'on the' trick; he kicked out his foot and struck :i t'hite foreman in the stomach; '1 he tlcv was a terrific one and came near killing the railroad man.: Roberts went cn to Hamlet and .cani bai k to Durham thinking he was safe, He was 'arrested about a week later and taken back for trial. He was of course convicted but sentence was not passed until the result of the in juries was known. Finally the sec tion master was able to get out and yesterday the negro was allowed to pay $25 and costs. Attorney Tilley got his man off lightly. A sentence of fifty years in the penitentiary wouldn't have been a great violation of the principle of justice, for George Roberts is a bad . eKB.;' .r..: Rev. Thomas L. Trott, who recent ly went to Louisburg to conduct a service, blngs back a story that he tells for tire truth and like his friend, Andy Beck, of Rowan, can "prove it by Brother Hennery." From Louisburg to Franklinton, the Seaboard runs a little spur track of ten or more miles. Some days ago two fellows got drunk In Louis burg, fired up the engine and started it off to Franklinton. One of them tied the whistle down and let it blow all the way, while the other filled the tender with cord wood. While the first one fired the engine, the second was collecting fares from the cord wood and when he found a deadbeat who wouldn't pay, he pitch ed the stick of wood out. Mr. Trot t doesn't know what became of his Louisburg heroes, but heard that they ran the engine into port with out accident. The Atlantic City special passed through the city yesterday evening at 8:35, exactly on time, and picked up forty excursionists in this city. The train, when it reached, had ' six coaches, two baggage cars, three day coaches and one pullman. At Durham It took on two pullmans and left without delay.

Beulah Binford, "the other woman" in ."the Beattie case, will not be permitted to be shown in pictures in Washing ton, The announcement that a mov ing picture company has arranged with the young woman to bring her to Washington to pose for a set of films has aroused prompt action by the Washington authorities. Cuno F. Rudolph, president of the District Commissioners announced today that that while the Binford woman could not be prevented ; from coming to Washington to poseL the pictures would be interdicted, and no moving picture theatre will be permitted to use her name on any billboards ad vertising pictures of either the wo- mon or the trial. The statement of the District Com missioner was made after Manager James F. Mackln, pastor of St. Paul's Catholic church; Rev. C. W. Whit- more, first curate of Trinity Episco pal church; Rev. Charles L. Pate, of Dunbarton Avenue Methodist Episco pal church and other 6Iergymen had protested against the proposed ex hibition. Shortly after the publication of her novel.

The statement' refers to the ap pointment of a committee .to write in the name of tnose proem I', a let ter to tlie president of the Farmers farmers generally to hold .their' cotton farmers' organizations, asking i hem to advise their local union and other subordinate bodies to adise the farmers geiirally to held iheir cotton for thirteen cents, and continue to demand that price until by eouven tiou or agreement, .-'"arrived at in some way a different one shall be suggested." The conference express ed the view that thirteen cents was seemingly less than tbat justified by existing statistical conditions. The statements continues: . "Information was given at an in formal conference that assurances would be given President Barrett, u to southern banks, that ample funds from banks outside of the south could be had through the instrumeii laliiy of southern financial iiistitu lions to be. lent at six ier cent, per annum to those who did not wish to dispose of their cotton at a sacrifice upon cotton warehouse statistic This committee subsequently met in the - office .of , Senator Yi'Ilianis,: of Mississippi, and concluded .that the best way to carry out the ideas su gested and agreed upon, was to give th.U statement to the Associated Press, signed Robert S, Owen, John Sharp Williams,: A.

August 23 Genera Count Nogi, the hero ot i'or Arthur, who left for Japan last week by way of Russia, was the victim of an extraordinary experience with an American, a ''hail-fellow-well met" tourist, in the Hotel Adlon the night before the general's departure The American, who is a well-known New York man about town and bears a distinguished hyphenated name, occupies apartments in one o the fashionable uptown hotels, and is fond of assuring both foes and friends that he traces his ancestry back to the sterling days when Charles II of England had taken re fuge in the humble home of a lady who lived near the battlefield of Worcester. .- Gen. Nogi, who is the most modest of men, was just leaving his table in the garden restaurant of the Ad Ion when this New Yorker ambled in for dinner. The New Yorker had seen Gen. Nogi around the hoteUfor a fortnight previous, but had not been presented. He decided, how ever to waive any little formalities and walking up to the Japanese gen eral, who, as already hinted, is shyness personified, slapped him on the back.exlcaiming: "Good old Nogi! Hurrah for Japan." . The grizzled Japanese fighting man seemed to grasp the beauty of the situation instantly. His Oriental comnosure did not desert him. He speaks no English, so he could not reply to the New Yorker s uncere monious greeting. He simply Biniled in a sort of lialf-amused, half-pain ed way, and walked out of the gar den on the arm of his adjutant. Col Koshiria, who proceeded to explain that some American tourists at large Knrope have ways peculiar to themselves of giving expression to tbe' ' feelings. - The incident occurred in the pres ence of 40 or 50 American guests who were dining at the hotel. These Americans were naturally disgusted, and organized an impromptu indig nation meeting for the purpose of discussing the advisability ' of tell ing their effervescent fellow-country man what they thought of such an exhibition. The next day the New- Yorker left in his motor car for Switzerland Fifth Avenue will no doubt be re galed with stories of "how I met Nogi." : FREES HISBAXD FROM JAIL. Son's Affection for Father Causes Mother to Relent. Norristown, Pa., Aug., 23 Affec tion for a 16-year-old son caused Mrs Daniel Krause, of Summeytown, to withdraw charges of assault and bat tery against her husband and have him released from Jail, where he had been held for court. Mrs. Krause has testified that her husband had beat her at intervals for thirty years. Her son's worry for his father caused her to relent. The boy would repeatedly say: Look at the good things we have and papa must eat dry bread." This was too much for the mother, nd she withdrew the charges. DALLAS COTTOX MILL FAILS. Pioneer Cotton Manufacturing Plant at Dallas Placed in Hands of Re ceiver.! ".'. Gastonia, Aug. 23 The Dallas cotton mill, located at Dallas, this county, was Saturday placed In the hands of Mr. 8. N. Boyce, of Gastonia as receiver. The failure did not be come generally known here till yes terday. Mr. Boyce is out of the pity today on ' business - and hence your roccespondent is unable to ascertain the facts regarding the matter trom "9-9inttie' an authoritative source. From th best information obtainable, however from stockholders it appears that this action was the result of pressure brought to hear on the. management bj- certain creditors and was invol untary. It is stated that the liabili ties are about $i;o, 000. Sir, J. R. Lewis is president and Mrs. R. S. Lewis secretary ami treasurer. To. those more or less in touch with the mill the failure did not come as a surprise, It was known that it had been operating at a loss for some time. Last year it stood idle for six months or more. The first of the year it resumed opera tions and ran for about six months, closing down some weeks ago. , The Dallas cotton mill was the pioneer cotton manufacturing plant of Dallas and was organized in 1891 with a paid up capital of $50,000 This was later increased to $.77,000 The mill is eulpped with 7,000 spin dles and 100 looms and manufac tured warps Nos.

M(;iITIX(i Cl'RI'S IDLICEM X Bolt Front inds- Said to Have lliiveii Away Xcuritis. ; 'Philadelphia, Aug. 2.1- William Lambert, a mounted policeman of the (Jfith street, and Woodland's ave nue station, for '.IB years, will return to duty lodav after an absence of nine months, during which time he was a helpless victim of neuritis, be yond all possible human assistance according to the physician who at tended him. Lambert has been cured and he declares that a lightning stoke of the storm last Thursday is responsible for it. He was lying in his bed, he eaid when he heard his daughter scream, and he managed to make liis way downstairs, fearing something , had happened to her. When he reached the front door he saw that there was nothing seriously wrong with her. The sky was as .black as ink as the storm approached. After leaning for a few minutes against the wall to gather strength for his return to bed he began to creep into the house. A vivid flash of Jigbtning blinded him, he asserts; struck nearby and he was thro wn to the ground. For three hours his body tinged as though a continuous electric current was passing through his nerves. After this sensation had passed away he was surprised to find that he had regained possession of all his limbs and muscles, and was able tql run anout. me nouse wunout any trouble. He was examined by his own physician, and later by Pollse Sur geons Wanamaker and Williams, and all three doctors expressed surprise at the marvelous cure of the dread disease. A BLOW FOR LA FOLLETTE. SupjKsed New York Managers Are Really Taft Men. New .York, Aug. 2:! Bela ffokaji's beautiful dream of sweeping this city in the fight he intends to make for the election of La Follette delegates to the next Republican National Con vention was rudely shattered this afternoon. Mr. Tokaji last week told how the La Follette movement had been or ganized in the Fourteenth congress ional district, which Is made up of the Eighteenth and Twentieth New York districts and most of Queens County. . " '. ,-.;.; . , - . Mr.' Tokaji confided fo 'the' news-; papers that in Queens Lucien Knapp, : a former member of the Republican 1 State Commltee, had agreed to bOHo'Art, the ' La Follette .campaign, while In the New York end of the district Peter Gatens would direct the fight. Both Mr. Knapp and Mr. Oaten de nied this afternoon tliat they were interested In vthe campaign to bag delegates for the Wisconsin senator, adding that Mr. Tokaji had no au thority to place them In such a posi tion. Mr. Knapp said: "I am not in this La Follette campaign. My name was used without warrant. 1 wish to cor rect the impression given out by Mr. Tokaji. I am not supporting the La Follette movement, nor do 1 believe there will be any such movement in New York. I am for President Taft."; . .':,-,'' ,:-., -' Mr. Gatens, who is candidate for Republican leader of the Eighteenth assembly district, said that La Fol lette had nothing to do with : his fight, and he had not allowed him self to become the candidate of any faction. He said he was a supporter of President Taft. : .. . GOOD FISH STORY. Contnble W. B. Savage Tells Story of l-'ish Hurdling tlie Air and Laud ing on Deck of Stenmer .-WilmliiK ton The Story. (Special to The Times.) . Wilmington, N. C, Aug. With no intention to compete forth State Press .Mendacity Medal and ut tor freedom from any desire to he enrolled among the contestants for that insignia, the Wilmington Dis patch was told yesterday of a .fish story: which is a "long jump", from the average run of fish yarns,: and which illustrates the ability of Cape Fear river mullets to do aerial stunts of splendid proportions when fright ened. Constable W. B. Savage, of this city, Is the authority for the tal of a meandering mullet, which Is to follow. He doth soleninly affirm and vigorously contend, that the bnl point at all where ' there is an stretching is in the effort of th aforesaid fish himself to assume the role of a high hurdler.: According to the story of th doughty officer, the steamer W.I I mington was the scene, the Cape Fear river the placed the' vicinity of Carolina Beach pier the exact spot and 10:30 a. m., Sunday morning the time for the flying stunt of the jumping juplter from the -deep, wa ters of the river. Mr. Savage stated that the Steamer Wilmington lit the time and plare mentioned, ran Into a ."school" of mullets. The fish were thoroughly frightened and the entire school commenced to take lessons In the art of jumping. However.; one member of the finny tribe evidently thought he would add embellish nients to his high flying stunts which would entitle him to a place in the Hall of Fame in the fish world. . As everyone knows, on the river steamers there are port holes on each side of the deck, through which ropes are passed. These port holes are about six inches long and three inches high. The particular port Uole which figures in his story was partly filled with a 1 Vi inch rope at the time the fish got busy with' his exhibition. The opening referred ti is fully six feet above the level of the water. Now to the accomplish nient of that lively bullet. The fish was evidently as frightened as a dar ky: is 'when pursued by a hissing bullet from the gun of some dusky rival, and therefore, proceeded to get busy when the steamer approached too closely. With one prodigious leap through the air, that mullet hurled through space, covering the six foot from water, line to the port hold in a flash of time, and not con tenfvith this, he hurdled himself through the small portion of the open port hole left , by the large rope which occupied a considerable por tion of the aperture. Mr, Fish went through the opening as prettily as a football player finding a hole In the opposition's line. He then landed on the steamer's deck, where he panted and puffed as a result of his record-breaking accomplishment. The wonder, or rather the double wonder, is, how that fish got sufficient foot hold (for lack of better expression) to make the leap, and also how he managed to wiggle through the very small opening he had sighted. The fish was eight or ten inches long and was a full size September mullet. The negro deck hands, with scant re gard for the record .the finny fellow had made, coon captured him Within a short time thereafter all that was left of Mr. Fish was a mournful looking pile of bones, picked as cleanly as if a vacum cleaner had wandered across .. each bone. The story above is solemnly told by Constable Savage. As he stands six feet four inches In height, weighs about 276 pounds, and has a fist as large as a North Carlolna ham, any doubting brother of the1 press who may Insinuate that the above Is not a true, yarn, will not only be nomi nated as a prominent candidate for the State Mendacity Medal, but will also be turned over to the gigantic officer for such corporal punishment as he may elect to inflict, while the scribe handling this story stands on the side lines and gleefully yells, "I told you so," "I told you so."
