Mr. Conrad that if the operation was
not deemed advisable, Mr. Broad
would be able to return here within
week or two. . .

Monday, when the Government will
offer the settlers the lands embraced
in the fourth unit of the Shoshone
irrigation project, lying to the north

are mostly eighty acres each and
contain some of the finest land on
the Shoshone project, which eventu

of the Yellowstone National Park in
northern Wyoming.

Policemen Miller and Braswell
Catch Claude Brewer in J. C.
Blackwelder's Restaurant Brewer
An Old Offender.
Another store breaker was caught
in the Arm grasp of the law last night,
when Policeman Miller' crawled
through a window at J. C. Blackwel
der's restaurant on West Depot street
and caught Claude Brewer, a young
white man, while he was in the act
of filling his pockets with articles
from the restaurant. A young man
met Brewer in front of the place
about midnight and the latter asked
him for a match. He gave him the
match and when he did so his ap
pearance aroused suspicion. After
walking a short distance the young
man decided to watch him. In a few
minutes he saw brewer break out a
glass and enter the restaurant. Po
licemen Miller and Braswell were no
tified and hurried to the scene. Officer
Miller-crawled throusrh the window
and had little difficulty in capturing
the man.
Brewer was looted up and is now
in jail, ba'ing waived examination.
He is a young man who has been in
the toils of the law almost from his
youth up and the gravity of his lasi
offense is such that lie will likely re
ceive rather severe punishment.

Shot
By Polar Tent.
Charlotte Chronicle.
A party of engineers of the Ral-
cish, Charlotte & Southern Railroad,
wtucn has been going over tne pro
posed route from Charlotte to Con
cord has given I he tribune the in
formation that the line will go by
Poplar Tentv The distance will be
about 21 miles, or the same as by
the Southern. One reason for the
udoption of the Poplar Tent route,
The Tribune says, is that the char
ter of the Raleigh, Charlotte & South
ern road, under which the Norfolk
Southern is operating, provides that
its lines shall not come within five
miles of the North Carolina Rail
road for a greater distance than ten
miles. The route by Poplar Tent is
snout as straight a shot as that by
the Southern; on account of the heavy
curves and grades at Rocky Ridge,
and it will open np some of the finest
farming lands in both Mecklenburg
and Cabarrus. , '
