A COLD WAVE A-CoMING.
It is now in the Northwest but is Head
ing This Way.

Everybody one met yesterday was max
ing the usual original remarks about Raj
eigh weather, Isn't it fine" Did you
ever see anything like it at this time Of
the year," And it was fine, regular In
dian summer weather, clear, warm and
beautiful.
Realizing that the people were holding
Farmer Won Herman responsible for
this kind Of weather, / went up into his
roost on the top of the Fisher building
to thank him, in their behalf, for what
he was doing in this direction.
"Oh, it's a bit too warm" he said
I'm going TO turn on little cooler air. :"
And whenY' / asked
"Oh by tomorrow night at the latest
There is possibility of a little rain to-
night. BY Saturday you will have a
freezing temperature, sure. There's a
storm raging in the West now and it's
heading right in this direction. In Dako-
ia. Iowa and Minnesota this morning
the thermometer is below zero.
How long viii this cold wave lastY'
About four or five days. But it viii
not be disagreeable and rainy. The low
barometer is not in the South, where it
always is when we have a rainy spell;
it is in Maine, and the weather will be
dry, clear and cold,
1.-THE weather that we have been hay
ing for the past few days is nothing unus-
ual for this time Of the year. The Their
mometer for the middle of November us
nally ranges from rs to so degrees. The
highest yesterday was 7S."
The most interesting feature on the
weather map issued by the u. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture yesterday morning
was the appearance Of a severe cold wave
in the extreme northeast. The barometer
at Bismarck had risen nearly half an
inch, to 5000. while the temperature
had fallen to 20 degrees below zero. A
fall of 80 degrees during the "a hours
previous occurred at st. Paul, 40 at Da-
venport, "a at Chicago and Kansas City
and SO at st. Louis. The cold wave is
spreading rapidly southeastward.
The storm has moved off the New Eng
land coast Light rains occurred in the
Lake region and Ohio valley. The
weather remains fair and warm in the
South and East
The forecast at $50 o'clock for the
next "a hours was:
For Raleigh and vicinity: INreasing
cloudiness with light rain tonight or
early Friday. Decidedly colder Friday
night; freezing temperature Saturday.
For North Carolina: Increasing cloudi-
ness tonight, with showers in western
portion. Decidedly colder.

THE LANGDoN-H ENszEY CASE.
New Orders From Judge Seymour Filed
With the Papers Yesterday.

New Orders From Judge Seymour Filled
With the Papers Yesterday.
A number OF new orders, issued by
Judge Seymour at Chambers in New
bern, were filed with the papers in the
Langdon- Henszey case yesterday.
In the matter of the petition of Sam
uel r. Langdon. for a restraining order
against Miss Katie Waite, to prevent
her from disposing of the 1000 in her
possession until the matter is decided by
the court, the petitioners bond has been
fixed by Judge Seymour ut $1,000, upon
the filing of which, approved by the
Master, the order may issue. 1t will be
remembered that Mr.. Smith, the Master,
had, before the making of this order.
fixed the bond at $1,000. Counsel for the
defendant considered this excessive.
Hence this order from Judge Seymour.
Other orders were also issued directing
that n copy of Langdon's petitions be
served on Henszey and that be he re
quired to answer the same within ten
days thereafter and that said petition be
referred to Ed. Chambers Smith, the
Master, with authority to subpoena par
ties and witnesses and examine the
same and make report of the evidence
taken before him to the Federal court.
Touching the petition in regard to
filing vouchers, etc, it is ordered that
the order of the court approving the
first quarterly account of the receiver be
set aside and that the said account be
referred to Ed.Chambers Smith Master,
10 audit the same, who shall examine and
file the vouchers.
1t will be remembered that IN his
petition Langdon rcprcSents that the
account for the first quarter, which was
approved by the federal court ON rule
day, 18th day Of last September was
not accompanied by single voucher, or
the copy OF one, and that no eXplana-
ton of the large number OF receipts and
disbursements was made by the receiver.
The account, in most places, he alleges,
is simply a date, the name Of person
and the amount received; or a date, the
name of a person apd the amount paid.
lie further says that without the
presence of vouchers it is impossible to
tell whether the disbursements are cor
rectly stated, or were made for the pro-
per purpose, or to inteligently object TO
the same.
1t was upon this complaint and repre-
sentation that the above order was
granted.
Miss Waite's attorneys yesterday de-
MED most positively that they or their
client desired any compromise in the
matter of Langdon against Miss Waite.
They said further that both she
and they are willing and prepared for
the most thorough investigation, as they
are satisfied that such investigation can
not injure Miss Waite's legal rights or
in any way reflect upon her good char
! aeter.
AS Judge Whitaker had so recently
been employed and had therefore had no
opportunity for consultation with his
| client or his associates, he desired further
! time for filing answer. This was, OF
course, granted by counsel for Lang
don. Miss Waites counsel are in per
feet accord. There is no difference of
opinion between them, and in due time
Miss Waite's answer will be filed.

MADE A SENSATION.
80 AYilkesboro Chronicle SAWS:


A sensation was created here last
Wednesday when it was learned that a
warrant was in the hands Of an officer
fer the arrest of Lawyer J. b. Buxton,
on the charge OF forgery.
The warrant has never been served.
The officer has never found AFR. Buxton.
lie has probably left the country.
The charge is that he forged the clerks
and registers certificate upon a mortgage
deed, by which he obtained money from
money lender IN New York, A. l..
Itichar isun. Buxton was the agent for
Richarlon G. w. Parlier negotiated
for loan, and signed up the mortgage.
Buxton sent it on and got the money.
Richardson sent statement to parlier for
first installment, and Parlier answered
that he had received no money. A detec-
tive was sent here to investigate the mat
ter and it seems the mortgage had not
been registered although certificates OF
registration were on it, and as result
the. warrant was issued for Buxton
arrest
We understand that the mortgage has
been paid off, and that Buxton has left
the country The warrant however il
still in the hands of the officer.
His wife and bright little girl whom
they had taken to raise, are still here.
His. many friends here had hoped that
he could clear. up the matter satisfacto-
rily. During his stay here he has been
a quiet, pleasant and accommodating
citizen, and has made many friends.
1t is probably the old story He was
too generous, got hard pushed, and went
wrong without intending the injure any
one.
