Greensboro, May 5. On complaint of
a negro railroad track walker, Charles
Donnell, that Tom Whitfield, Charles
Cecil and Will Stewart, colored, had
waylaid and robbed him a few miles
north of here, officers yesterday after
noon arrested the three men and they
are now in jail charged with highway
robbery. Donnell said Stewart held a
pistol at his head, while the others took
his watch and all his money. The offi
cers secured a hand car and overtook
the men near Brown Summit. Being
ordered to surrender, the man named
Stewart drew a pistol and it snapped.
He then jumped in the bushes and ran,
the officers firing at him. He was
struck in the left elbow, in the right
arm: and in the leg, and surrendered,
being hand-cuffed and brought to jail

John D's "Generosity"
Kinston Free Press, 5.
Anticipating an adverse report from
the bureau of corporations, we pre
sume, the scanaara un uompany ad
vanced the price of kerosene one cent
a gallon to dealers that the presuming
public might be punished for its tem
erity. Local dealers have to pay 12
cents now, and there's a kick, but the
sanctimonious old gentleman at the
head of the trust has to make up for
"charities," and incidentally chastise
the American people for "investiga
ting" him.
May be brother, the raise was on ac
count of the $5,000 he gave to the San
Francisco relief fund. Old John D.
loves to give to charity and then pull
the peoples leg to recoup.

colored graded school Monday night at
the Odd Fellow Hall, this good In
fluence was seen in the attention, and

Mr. Gannon stated yesterday that
his trip south had for its object to com
plete the line from New Bern to Wash
ington, N. C, and further declared if
the steel market is in the condition
that rails may be had he hoped to have
direct line from Norfolk to Raleigh in
operation within a year.
The completion of the line from Nor
folk to New Bern, of which the con
struction of the five-and-a-half mile
bridge across Albemarle ' sound is a
part, will he an immense benefit to
Norfolk. Mr. Gannon says then trams
can be run from New Bern in the morn
ing so that shoppers from eastern North
Carolina may spend a half day in Nor
folk and return to their homes in the
evening. Under the present conditions
the entire day is consumed in the trip
one way, while under the proposed
new conditions the round -trip can be
made in a day-and several hours spent
in Norfolk.
By the completion of this line Wash
ington, Plymouth, Morehead City and
Beaufort will also be brought in close
touch with Norfolk.
At the present time thirty-three
miles of track from Washington to
Raleigh have been hud.
Unofficial reports have it that the
Norfolk and Southern railway will not
atop at Raleigh. In lumber circles it
is believed the line will be extended on
to the western pert or North Carolina
and thence into the lumber districts of
Georgia."
