Young Couple In County Jail On Adultery Charge Had Been Living Here as Man and Wife in Local Boarding House. Admits Former Marriage. A young couple, known as Grady Hames and his wife, were placed i. TSThherC'^st^tfight by Chief B. I 0. Hamrick and city officers and will likely be tried before the re corder this week, it is said, on a charge of fornification and adul tery. Although they have a certi ficate showing that they were mav ried in Gaffney, December 10th 1025, local officers say that they arc not legally married as the wo man has not a divorce, so far as they know, from her first husband. Some time back Chief Hamrick, received a letter from the girl’s mother, a Mrs. Lail of Hickory, telling him that her daughter lived her,* with Hames and that she had several years ago married a man there. The arrest here came after an investigation, it is said, and the woman, officers say practically ad mitted the former marriage, but stated that she had not lived with the first husband but a short time a he got into trouble, adding that an officers told her that she could get married again as her first hus band had been gone for quite a time. The young couple, it is said, had been living here for some time and they were employed at a local industrial plant, Chief Hamrick said. The husband, court officials report, was in court here some time ago on a charge of beating his supposed wife, but at the hear ing she did not appear against him. Prior to the trial officers, it is understood, are investigating Hames’ past, he having admitted, they say, that he was married twice before, being divorced once and his second wife dying. Whether or not other charges "ill be preferred has not been de tided as yet. Officers Create Record In Jailing One Dozen People I'inns Mountain Officers Appar ently Though Local Bastile Was Getting Empty i'eputv Greel Ware and his as i;’• ate Kings Mountain officers apparently have the idea that none |l 1 he nice, county-maintained rooms at the new jail should ever empty. Ware surely heard that the hoarders were decreasing at Sheriff Logan’s establishment, f<" Ihursday night in company with ( hf Irvin Allen and Policeman Hedricks he brought over 12 nc Krn« as inmates. So far as is remembered this is a record number to ever be jailed 1!) l;heibv at one time. The 12 colored men are charged "ith stealing coal from the plant °f the Kings Mountain Oil com pany. They are said to be working with a construction force on the railroad near Kings Mountain Working upon information the Kings Mountain officers corraled the entire party Thursday and brought them here for trial. ( levcland Oil ( - mpany Takes Over Equipment of Arey Oil Co., lexaro Distributors One of the largest deals consum- , mated in Shelby recently was mtidb ! this week whereby the Are.v Oil company sold its equipment for the j distribution of petroleum products' to the recently organized Cleve-1 land Oil company. Arey Oil com pany held the agency for Texaco petroleum products and had he-! tween 50 and 75 pumps in this ter-! ritory, six trucks and a valuable j good will which was taken into j consideration. Purchase price was 1 not given. The Cleveland Oil company was j recently organized here with local: and Gastonia capital, taking over 1 the Washburn Oil company. J. F. Johnson was elected presilent, Chas i Washburn treasurer and R. 11. Bry-i son, secretary and general manu- \ ger. All of these gentlemen are ex-i perienced in the distribution of pc- j troleurn products and are rapidly j building up a wonderful trade in! this territory.

Woman Admitted Infidelity and Expected to Marry Her New Lover. Nice People. Durham.—An arrangement be tween a husband and wife and a third party, by which the husband was to relinquish his claim to the wife to third member of the tri angle was broken up when two au tomobiles full of robed and, hooded men at the intersection of; Chapel Hill and Duke streets, in the heart of Durham, picked up Dewey Poy thress and Mrs. P. B. Midyette. took them to a lonely road and applied the lash to the young man Mon day nitrht of last week. Mr. Midyette. Mrs. Midyette and Mr. Poythress had come to an agree merit by which Mr. Midyette and his wife were to secure a divorce, had agreed on the. disposal of thew three children and had agreed that later Mrs. Midyette and Mr. Poy thress would marry. The three had held a conference in Durham that night and Mrs. Midyette and Mi. Poythress had gone to a picture show. They were on their way to the home of Mrs, Midyette s par ents. Mr. and Mrs. T. G. Edwards, 401 Jackson street, when the hood ed and robed figures took charge of them. Everything Arranged. Mr. Midyette haU meet aivoite proceedings with the clerk of the Superior court oi Durham county, charging Mrs. Midyette with infi delity. Mrs. Midyette had admitted the charges in her answer. The case was to come up for hearing in Superior court next week, inci dentally before Judge Garland K. E Midyette, a relative of the hus band. With the granting of the di vorce, Mrs. Midyette and Mrs. Poy thress were to have been married. Agreement had been reached by which Midyette was to take the two older children, had taken them and sent them to his home in an other part of the state. Mrs. Midy ette was to keep the youngest, less than a year old. Mr. Poythress had assented to this arrangement. It had all been worked out and all parties were satisfied. Mrs. Midy ette and Mr. Poythress bad fallen in love as he called at the Midy ette home in Chapel Hill to deliver the daily mail for more- than a vear. She had told her husband, with whom there had not been com plete congeniality, with no particu lar blame attached to cither. The advent of the hooded men scared the young man to such an extent that he left hie job as city letter carrier m Chapel H U and disappeared, supposedly to \n einia, blasting the plans that had been SO carefully made.

Came From Southern Section of Country IS SUCCESS 1 Women in Meeting Here Plan to Add Color and Convenience to Homes Over the County. Cheerful, happy homes that will radiate enthusiasm and incite am bitions for success in their inmates is the plan by which farm women and club members of Cleveland county plan to do their bit in im proving agricultural Cleveland countl. Many Women Attend. Despite the wintry weather 58 club women of the county gather ed at the meeting held at Central school here Wednesday afternoon to hear Miss Helen Eastabrook, state specialist, discuss plans of im proving the farm home and a pro gram of aid by the farm wife to her husband in establishing North Carolina farms on a sounder basis. The meeting was presided over by Mrs. J, D. Elliott, newly elect ed president of the county council, and she welcomed the visitors to the meeting. Mrs. Irma Wallace, home agent, in introducing the speaker touched upon the subject for the gathering. The home, ac cording to her, is like the chicken' and the egg—one makes the other,! and the housewife who makes the j home is in turn made by the home, j A cheerful home, she declared, is a j fitting background for success and! it is a woman’s place to provide such a home that it may incite the j inmates to make a success of their undertaking. Miss Estabrook, who is a special-j ist on home fui*nishings, conducted an inspirational demonstration, giv ing simple and inexpensive meth ods for combining beauty and use fulness, employing only things that j are necessary, or useful, and do: away with all unnecessary articles ■ that create extra work. “We need more light and color in our homes and there never should be a feeling ; that we have shut the sunshine | out,” she declared. “Perhaps, this,’ too, may solve the problem, in a measure, of how to keep our boys; and girls at home.” Following the demonstration Miss Eastabrook explained the method of using local leaders in taking up the project of hours furn ishing leaders from each club will meet at some future date ar.d at- ( tend a training school to be con ducted by Miss Eastabrook, Mrs. Wallace give the methods learned to the other members of the clubs and their neighbors. Leading club women expect this project of leader work to mean much to the county and that all these leaders will practically be as sistant agents in the work. As fourteen leaders have already been signed up it apparently means that fourteen times as many will be reached as if the agent was work ing alone. “In fact,” says Mrs. Wal lace, “it will reach more than that for a goodly number of club mem- ■ I bers are planning to take up the j work who were prevented from at I tending the meeting.” Carolina. It was here that he met ! and married Miss Edwards some five or six years ago. They had not j been entirely congenial, it is said. Young Poythress, 22 or 23 years old. who has lived for many years in Chapel Hill, growing up there. 1 driving a delivery wagon in his 1 younger days, some two years ago I he took the civil service examina tion and received an appointment as letter carrier, about the time the city delivery service was inaugu rated in the university town. Post master Herndon gave him a splen did rating and he was looked upon by the community as a splen did young man. Persons knowing the three say that he and Mrs. Midyette are of types which would seem to make them more suitable and congenial than Mr and Mrs. Midyette. . . Mr. Midyette was the first, it is reported, to go to the police about the matter. He is said to have asked if some steps could not be taken to prevent another such incident, to protect not only the wife from whom he was separated, but also the man who she was to marry. Later the wife is said to have vis ited police headquarters in Durham and supposedly asked for protec ts so she and Mr. Poythress might continue to be together unmolested. Just how much has Cleveland county’s negro population ineroa - ed during the post three or four years? Quite a number of leading farm ers, acquainted with the migration here of colored tenant farmers from Georgia, Alabama and South Car olina, say that the colored folks in the county have almost doubled during a five-year period. Otlie think this estimate is pin ed too high, but agree that the negro pop ulation has increased perceptibly. Shelby officers; say that there are many more negroes in Shelby now than ever before, while out in the county several sections number more colored people iTian white. \ group discussing the incident this week in the court house offered the i information that in .>ne or two sec tions there are more colored school children than white. The first migration of negroes from states farther south began with the ravages of the boll weevil in Georgia, Alabama j and Smith Carolina. Train load after trainload came into this section} to settle on large cotton farm of (this and ad- i joining counties as tenants. Their services 'were no monger in need at their original homes as 1hc boil} weevil left little work for them to ’ do. For two years or more this migrated labor has been beneficial to farmers of the section in produc ing recent large cotton crops. With the flop in price many are moving to town, which has brought on the query as to how much the negro , population of the county has in-; creased. The 1930 census will likely reveal some surprising information along that line—provided the cotton out look in this section stages a come back on price.

Negro Confesses To Killing Aged Nurse In Asheville Murder Mystery Asheville.—Will Barton negro taxi driver, confessed to the police Wednesday night that he was the driver of the ear that killed Mirs Mary McGuire, 71-year-old Ashe ville nurse, Christmas morning, and that he carried the body in his ma chine to Campbell’s woods where it was dumped out. The confession of the negro who has been held since Wednesday fol lowing the death of the nurse, came at 6 o'clock p. m. after mem bers of the plainclothes depart ment had confronted him with the evidence that they had accumulated by the investigation, which has been in progress since Christmas. After remaining silent for sev eral weeks in the city jail. Barton went to pieces from the strain arid told-the officers that he rounded Battery Park hotel about 1:30 o’clock Christmas morning and as he reached O. Henry avenue he found Miss McGuire crossing the street. “She became confused,” the ne gro told the officers, “and dodged tack and forth and I struck her. got out as quickly as I could and put her in the car and then some body said she was dead. I got scared and decided to take her to some spot where she would not be found quick.” He then told how he drove to Campbells wood and dumped 'the body out, returning later to the dance and with morbid curiosity watched the undertaker removing the body and saw the officers work ing in the crowd in an effort to find out howT the killing occurred. Miss McGuire had just attended mass at St. Lawrences Catholic church1 and was on her way to the hospital when she was struck by Barton’s car. She was dragged sev eral yards and her body was badly mangled. Other arrests may follow in connection with the case. Barton, about whom the mem bers of the police department have been drawing a net-work of irrefut able evidence, has been held in the city jail as the driver of the death car, a blue sedan. It was after members of the department had found a slender strand of gray hair dinging to Barton’s automobile, that he was held in the city jail along with four other negroes, with out bond. Gibbering. Bit by it the officers with pains taking care have constructed a case that finally roke down the negro’s stolid silence and made him gib bering heap of nerves under the stress of his confession. The other negroes have been held largely as a matter of supporting the case that the officers have built up around Barton. The latter is alleged to have made a mysterious trip to Greenville, S. C., where ha obtained a loafi of liquor. It was while this liquor was being distrib uted that the nurse w»as struck by the Barton car and killed. Her body was then taken to Campbells woods where it was dumped out and found a few minutes later in the muddy driveway.

Wells Terry, young white map% | now resting in jail as the result of the odd experience of seeing two wives in the local court room re cently, may be in for added trouble as the result of some exocrt work by two state automobile inspectors here this week. The Latest Stunt. The car which was in Terry’s possession at the time of his first arrest had had the motor number filed off. This week the auto inspec tors arrived in town, took the car to a local garage and began their detective work. The motor was heat ed and then a blow torch and vari ous acids were brought into plav. The result was that soon the num ber that had been filed off sud denly swelled out from the block and was easily read, every figure showing up in relief. The insepc tors then consulted their records and found that the car had been stolen in Greenville, S. C., about a year ago. The owner came after the automobile yesterday and like local officers was somewhat astounded at the artistry of the experts ir bringing out the numbers that hm been filed off. Eut Terry awaitim in jail a Superior court trial ha: nothing whatsoever to say about thi car, officers decalre, other thai stating that he traded for it. One Wife Indignant. Terry’s complete story, as far a it connects up with the local court goes back considerably farthe Some time ago Ruppe’s garage i South Shelby was entered and rob bed. By some clue Officer Bob Ken drick started on Terry’s trail. At a later date Terry was arrestedjvtlds home in Belmont and brought here fdr a hearing on the larceny charge. However, he was not convicted on the probable cause hearing in con nection with the garage entry, but while the trial was underway he was confronted with the problem of explaining his possession of two wives both of whom were in the court room. The second wife, who came from this section of North Carolina and was admittedly good looking, had been living with him at Belmont, they being married last August in South Carolina, it is said. The other wife came up from Laurens, S. C., where she had been living, there being a child by this marriage. Terry did not do the explaining, but the first wife, a comely looker herself, expressed quite a bit of indignation. The general result was that Terry was held for court for bigamy, it being a rather hard mat ter to explain two wives when they unluckily bob up at the same place and that a court room. Now tho trick of bringing out the auto num bers may bring further trouble and Officer Kendrick is of the opinion that all may not be over concerning the garage entry. Added to that Terry must face the love of a woman turned to wrath—that of his first wife. Mrs. Terry. Numer One, apparently had none too high regard of the North Carolina courts, or thought the pur ishment here would not be enough for the father of her child who married another woman, so she, of ficers say, announced her intention of returning home and swearing out a warrat there charging him with non-support and abandonment so that if he had things too easy here the sister state of South Caro lina might help make things harder Two wives, suspicious possess!® of an automobile, and a larcen charge still doubtful—no reas®: Terry has little to say as he count, off the hours in the county jail.
