Sunday morning an officer of this city was sent to Wilmington after the young man,) and he was brought back and placed in the county jail. Yes terday mornine he sent a Jelemram to fliia mother, who lives atAugusta, Ga , telling her of his predicament and ask- ingTier tr1d him by pending him $240 so that he cou'd return the money to Ms employer and, escape prosecution. Late yesterday afternoon, however, the matter had not been, satisfactorily arranged and Barnett ia still behind the bars. ' Barnett is a young man of good ap pearance and does not have the look of a criminal at all. He nays that the pre dicament he is now in is the result of his own foolishness, that he got on a big' drunk r and spent money that be longed to someone else. He said that he stayed in Wilmington three days be fore his arrest and could have left there before his arrest if he so desired but that he didot want to run away from the law. Taken at a whole he seemed unconcerned as to the ultimate outcome of the case." The charge is a rather serious One and unless he repays the money to the company and they with draw their charges againBt bim it will doubtless go hard with him when hto is brought' to trial, for the evidence is such that clearly shows that he embez zled the money.

' One of the interesting. -landmarks of Cape Fear River is the "Oram Tree." It is an old cypress, moes-covered, and twisted and quar led, by, perhaps, cen turies of storm and stress. Somehow in early hialory.it became recognized aa the proper place for taking a drink When passing1 either up or down the river.'. Outgoing sailors taking a last view o( Wilmington, and perhaps the fluttering hankerchiefs of daar ones, drank a toast to success and a prosper ous return; Incoming masters recognis ed the propriety of passing the grog and giving every sailor lad a drink in honor of safe return. Even the fuher- men going eat would linger at the "Dram Tree" to exchange a word with skippers la other boats, and perhaps to 1 to drink out of each ' other's jug. - It j wa la fact, quite ' a . social center for those whose inclinations led them to ward a life on the bending billows- .. When the Prohibition Law was pass-1 ed hi North Carolina a few years ago, 1 It was soon af toward noticed that the "Dram Tree" wm dying; and someone laconically replied when asked tba re son therefor, that' It was undoubtedly due to prohibition fnd the Infrequent libations which are now poured by the sailors Id honor of the old trer."Now for North Carolina," '1'rank i P, Fogg, la National Magazine for June." ! .
