Monumental City GOLDSBORO IN ROYAL ARCANUWIS IN WILMINGTON CAPTURED HER FOUND TURNS PISTOL ON -HIMSELF Tragedy Took Place Tn Hospital Where The Woman Wa Being Treated. (Special to the Journal) Goldsboro, April 14. For the second time in less than a month, Goldsboro is shocked by a tragedy, this time in which the lif: cf a young women was snuffed out without warning and the life of her paramour., who rushed her soul into eternity, is hanging by the slenderest thread. Shortly after 9 o'clock this morning, Mrs. May Carter Lomax was shot and instantly killed by Cleveland Prince a young man who is well known locally and who lives in a section of tljel uiiy kiio-wii tta ncuu tuwn. Prince had only rec&fftf? 'returned from a trip west in the interest of his hca'th and last Thursday he and Mrs Lomax went out in the latter's auto mobile frr a " oy ride". The machine was wrecked and Mrs. Lomax was in jurcd and later carried to the hospital for treatment. This mprning Prince went to Mrs. Lomax millinery estab lishment and told one of the young lady clerks that her employer wanted to see her. Not doubting the young man's word the clerk donned her hat and cloak and together the two went to the hospital. As the floor nurse had no reason to question the visitors they were per mitted to sec Mrs. Lomax; neither did the young lady who accompanined Mr. Prince suspect anything for she went with him on his statement calling for her to accompany him, that Mrs. Lomax had requested him to call and take her out to the hospital, that Mrs. Lomax wished to sec her. Soon after the two entered Mrs Lomax room the young lady was re quested by Mr. Prince to step into the hall for a moment, that he wanted to have a private talk with Mrs Lomax, and hardly had she complied with ' the request when two pistol shots rang out in the room and through the hall and when the startled floor nurse and others hurried to the scene they found Mrs. Lomax dead with a wound through the head and Mr. Prince writhing in unconsciousness from a like shot, self inflicted, im mediately after shooting Mrs. Lomax Her death was instantaneous. inere was a noticeable intimacy between Prince and Mrs. Lomax and many of the more observant suspected that an infatuation existed mutually between them but few if any gave it a serious turn in their minds. Rumors however, began to go the rounds as rumors will and Prince, about four months or so ago, went west for his health and cople forgot it. He return ed two weeks ago and Thursday night' he and Mrs. Lomax in the lattcrs auto mobile left the city together after midnight 'o' a "joy ride" and Friday morning the wrecked automobile was found on the road near the park and there was evidence that there had been drinking aboard. Rumor again be came rife and yesterday Mrs. Lomax was entced as a 'patient, in the hos pital, At llft'clack tonight Prince ii still living but is unconscious and t'.icrc is no hope for his recovery. Prior to her marriage Mrs. Lomax was Miss My Carter. She and her father and mother and two brothers came her.; about ten years ago. A shcrt time later she opened a millinery eitablshmcnt on East Centre Street JJjn II. -V , (Special to the Joi;rn:il) Goldsboro, April IS. Cleveland Prince, the young man who yesterday visited the Goldsboro hospital and fired a bullet into the brain of Mrs. May Carter Lomax, killing her instant ly ,and then turned his still smoking revolver on himself and inflicted in juries, died this morning without re gaining consciousness. Immediately after the young man had shot himself he was placed rn the operating table in the hospital and an attempt was made to save his life but from the very first it was feen that there was not the least hope for him.

Haywood and Rachel Pollock, colored wanted in Wilmington for the murder colored woman several months ago, were apprehended and placed under arrest in this city yesterday after noon and arc now in the Craven coutny jail awaiting the arrival of an officer from that city who will carry them back to stand trial. Immediately after the woman, whom the two fugitives captured here yester day Afternoon are charged with hai ig killed, the latter left Wilmington and although- diligent searpji was, made for them they could-not be located. The police department of that city sent out descriptions of the pair and one of these fell into the hands of Chief of Police Lupton and since that time he and his men have been on the lookout for them. Yesterday afternoon Chief of Po lice Lupton was at the depot when the train from Wilmington arrived. Hay wood Pollock alighted from the train first and a few seconds later was cined by his female companion. Their ac tions appeared suspicious to Chief Lupton and he watched them for a minute or more. Suddenly he thought of he description sent him from Wil mington and decided that these two were the ones wanted. Keeping in the background, so as. not to alarm the fugitives, the Chief wa ched them en er a colored boarding house close by and as soon as they had gained the inside, he had Policemen Bryan and Lup on who were also at the depot made a rush for the door. The woman saw the officers first and made a dash for freedom, running through the house and out into the yard but Chief Lupcon was watching their every move and he had her under arrest before she had covered many yards. In the meantime fouccman Whitford had taken charge of Haywood Pollock and the two were then taken to jail. At first they both dented that they were the persons wanted but after a short time the woman owned that their names were Pollock and the ones wanted by the, Wilmington police bu. both stoutly deny having committed murder.

TckcJ up on the walls of Confederate reunion headquarters in this city, i:; a large card, dimensions about two by three feet. This card contains infor mation of interest to,the reunion hos pital service. For three days of the reunion, May 27, 28 and 29, the physicians of Chat- kanooga will give their services to the reunion association to look after the health of the veterans and visitors. A couple of physicians each day will be located at convenient points in the city and on the battlefields, so that medical service- may be quickly pro vided if needed.. The card indicates tbc assignments tor each day, tells where the. doctors will be and gives their names. So, if a veteran or visitor is suddenly striken with any ailment he will be given . immediate attention by the medical, corps. City Physician Stcrl is at the head of the medical ccrps, and has been active in making prepara tions. Prominent ex -Confederates from other states, who have looked into this branch of the coining service, pronounce it the most perfect they have ever seen. In case of accident, the medical corps will promtly give attention to the in jured. Hospi.al service will be pro vided free of all charge to veteran?, and any othc s that may need medical attention in an emergency. May is the healthiest mon h of the year lit Chattanooga, but in immense, crowds, like that expected during the reunion, medical attention is generally in demand by somebody. The pre parations to provide thi attention immediately if needed, arc all that could be desired. New York, April 14. On the United Fruit Company's steamer Carillo, which sailed yesterday for Guyaquil, Ecuador, were Mr. and Mrs. William G. Gates, of Callao, Peru, arid thrc mining engineers and assaycrs. Mr. Gates has had large mining in terests in Peru for some years past; but a couple of months ago he came upon a "find" in the course of explora tions in the wilds of the Andes that impressed him so deeply that he came at once to New York in o -dcr to secure expert Opinion on the1 question. The location of the "find" Mr. Gates re fused to make public beyond saying that it is between the headwaters of two rivers. The ore, says Mr. Gates gold ore is of such richness that he believes he has at last actually found the original treasure lode of the Incas, and ha thus re-discovered, an ancient mine that has been the subject of wild spec ulation, the object of hundreds of pros pecting expeditions and the theme of scores of romances in every language since the days of Pizarro. "The tales of the old Spanish con quisladoes," said Mr. Gates, "are full of descriptions of the Incas, Manco and Huaym Capax, of the gold plates on the walls of their places and temples, the eold ornaments on the costumes of the meanest of their court at tendants, the gold that apparently strewed the very ground around them The precious metal seems to have been common as lead among them. "Pizarro and his men seized vast quantities ot gold and silver at the taking of Quito and Cuzco, but it has always been believed that even larger portions of the treasure escaped them and has remained to this day buried far back in some almost inaccessible recess of the Andes. "I do not know whether these talcs are myth or cxiggeration or plain sober fact. Certainly none of the many ex peditions organized to search for the treasure has ever been successful. But it is not open to doubt that Pizarro and his men did seize immense quantities of gold in Peru. Enough ot it was brought back to Spain to prove that. None of th back to Spain to prove that. None of the mines now known in Peru would account for such vast wealth. The lode I have just found, however, is of such amazing richness that I think it is only reasonable to suppose that it must be the true source of the treasure of the Incas." Mr. Gates said that he had not let hii discovery be known in- Peru fc fear of Governmental interference is un lerstood in Lima that he ha found iron ore, and his expedition known in Peru as an expedition to develop a new iron mine.

For several months the man had been seen in the neighborhood, and his language indicated that he was well educated.
