TURNED IN A FALSE ALARM.
A Pilot Cottora Mill Operative Gets
Thirty Days for 1t.


Ira w. MaytonI is not swinging a pick
to-day, because it's Sunday, and convicts
don't work on Sunday, any more than
other people do. But tomorrow morning
he will probably begin to exert his
muscle with the object in view of inn
proving Wake county's highways. He
was sentenced yesterday by Mayor
Russ. His term is for 30 days, and his
offense is turning in a false alarm of
fire.
Now Ira is an operative in the Pilot
Cotton Mills and somewhat inclined to be
sporty. He had been out on the town
Friday night and was returning home in
that condition that men usu-
ally are when they have
been decorating a :small-sized metropo-
lis with vermillioh. He was &C
companied by two of his boon compan-
ions, Shaw and McClave. 1t didn't APP
pear on evidence that they were singing
I'VE won't go home till mornin'," but
it is to be inferred that they were from
the circumstances of the case. And
whether they were or not, they wanted
one more round of fun, one in which all
the town could join, before they went
home. So they turned in the fire alarm.
At least Mayton did Shaw and Me
Clave said on trial that they tried to
prevent it. Anyway when the fire de-
partment got TO box is, corner of Blount
and Polk streets, there stood three men
and not q spark Of fire in sight
They were closely questioned, but moi
word said they throwing any light
on the fire and there being no FIRE that
could throw none on the identity of the
person turning in the alarm So the fire
laddies came back But Fireman Man
gum had become tired of this false alarm
business and he believed deep down in
his own breast that enc of these men
did that deed, so he followed them and
soon Mayton's drunken talk told the
whole story, and he had: him arrested yes
terday morning The: evidence of his
companions convicted him.
The maximum penalty, $50. was inn
posed, but Mayton couldn't pay it and
was sent to the roads.
The sentence is none too heavy. The
turning in of false alarms is of far TOO
frequence occurrence, and the authorities
are determined to stop it. 1t costs the
city much money and the fremen no little
trouble.

For long time my son was troubled
with some bronchial trouble, which,
every time he took cold, settled in his
throat and produced something like
tonsilitis. The tonsils would enlarge
and swell so that he had great trouble
to swallow anything, and could take no
solid food. Last spring he took half
dozen bottles of hrs Joe Persons Rem
edy, and gargled his throat with the
