BEEN CLEARLY IDENTIFIED BY
HIS vICTIM-H WILL HAVE a
SPEEDY TRIAL AND WILL NO
DOUBT GET JUSTICE.

The negro who assaulted Mrs. Hender-
son has been arrested and his identity es-
tablished beyond Il doubt.
AS reported in yesterdays Times. the
watch was recovered and the negro WINS
seen coming toward the city about 3
o'clock the evening before. The authori-
ties soon got on his trail and between the
hours of and 10 O'Clock Friday night he
was captured by Policemen Griffin and
Moss, between Ninth and Tenth avenues.
From the description secured from the
woman to whom he had sold the watch
the police were fairly confident that Moses
Dennis was the man they wanted.
When Dennis was arrested he protested
that he had committed no offence and
asked why he WAS arrested. No satisfac-
tory answer was given him by the Off.
GERS, but he was taken straight to Mrs.
Henderson's house to be identified. AS
the officers approached the house Dennis
became very nervous, but still protested
that he was innocent of any crime.
AS soon ms Mrs. Henderson saw him
she recognized him rs her assailant and
lie was Immediately taken to Jail.
Yesterday morning Chief Dyer and
Policeman Griffin removed him by pri-
vate conveyance.t to Blue Ridge Springs
and from there on II freight train to
l.ynchburg. where he was put in iail.
Inc ohicers tnought 1t best to keep the
matter of his arrest perfectly uuiet and
when approached Mt / O'Clock Friday
night by a reporter denied that they had
secured him, although he was Mt that
time in jail
Dennis has been in and around Roam
oke and Ninton ever since he committed
the crime, and had the description first
furnished been good one he would have
been captured before this time.
He is the same man who assaui ted Mrs.
Ash In Northeast Roanoke in the latter
part OF 1919 and has Il reputation among
the police as had negro
Judge Woods will summon special
grand jury to try this case and speedy
justice is promised.
Chief Dyer and Griffin returned from

and faithfully carried out The one ex-
ception was the massing of too much in
fantry, considering the available force,
behind the stone wall, which could have
been defended with at most half the men
who were ordered to that point, aEd the
balance of the men could have been sen t
to points where they could have been Ell
fective.
The first half hour of the solving of the
problem was the disposition OF the men
for day outpost. After that the night
outpost was demonstrated. 1t was very
similar to the day duty. but the sentinels
were moved inward to the inside of the
line of the stone wall and posted very close
together.
During the demonstration of the prob
lem the Browns, who were at various
points 10 the south and on the right flank
of the Blues, made attempts to sneak into
the lines of the Blues, but two OF them
were taken by the infantry and turned
over as prisoners of war to Lieutenant
NoIan's command. Lieutenant Powell,
who was in command of the Browns, sue
ceeded in passing the line neld by the
cavalry, but his success was but momen-
tary, for trooper spied him, went for and
made him prisoner. Five other Brown
men who were crawling through the lupin
TO get by the troopers were discovered ana
were also made prisoners.
Captain O'Connell expressed himself as
very we'll pleased with the result OF the
forenoon's work and gave unlimited praise
to Captain Lockett for the mastery man.
ner in which he handled the troops under
his command.
One of the officers at the post in discuss
ing the work OF the morning said: "Of
course there is difference OF opinion g
to whether the problems that have been
submitted are correct In every particular,
but be that as it may it is practical exer-
else that is bound to result in great good
to the service. 1t is exhilarating and it is
the means Of developing ideas rs to how
an attack or defense should be made.
The lessons so acquired will certainly be
of service If the troops should be called
out for action in earnest" Then he added
that it is doubtful if the troops will leave
the post this year for an encampment, as
there does not appear to be any appropr1-
alton for that purpose. He was, however,
of the opinion that the men can get all
the needed exercise on the Presid 10
reservation.
