He Blew HIS Whistle.

Gray Carol, a leading Demo
cratic politician and a leading citi-
zen of our state, in company with
two other gentlemen came here to
go out on the Pee Gee road for a
hunt. They were all three dressed
in the huntmen style from their
shoes up to the hats they wore on
their heads. Mr.. Carol had pro-
vided himself with a whistle to call
his dogs with, and it was a regua-
tion police rattler, and while stand
ing in the entrance of the Tony
Degrazier bar, missed one of his
dogs and he set his whistle to work
to find him. Marshal Casey was a
block off and hearing the whistle
took a dog trot for the place the
noise came from. He soon discoV-
cred Mr., Carol and going up to
him, told him he was breaking .
city ordinance in blowing a
police whistle Mr., Casey says that
the gentleman retorted by sayin.
he had right to whistle for hi,
dog and he raised his pea rattle to
his mouth and gave it another blast
whereupon the marshal placed him
under arrest. He asked Mr., Casey
to 90 with him TO the Office of r. B.
Williams and he would give bond,
but protested vehemently that his
town allowed him to blow his whis-
tie whenever he got good and
ready. We know full well that Mr..
Carol did not knowingly blow his
whistle to kick up disturbance,
but 1t did aud he will have to face
Recorder Murphy or Mayor Mullins
on the charge and we hope with ex-
plantations on his part the court
will let him off,

THEY ARE HERE.

A special train came in last night
over the Cotton Belt, on which
were several officers of the road,
among them we notice Russell
Harding, the newly appointed gen
eral manager; ]. A. Edison, general
superintendent; A, S. Dodge, gen
eral traffic manager; E. w. La
Beaum, general ticket agent; R.
NJ Galbraith, general master me
chanic; ]. H. White, division super
intendent of the Sherman branch
of road; T. E. Han, secretary OF
the traffic man : r, and D. w.
Lane, stenog~al her to superintend-
ent Edison. The parry have been
over the main line md branches
and Mr., Harding S tys the road is
in better shape than he expected
to find it by 100 per cent. The Cot
ton Belt has rocked on a pretty
even cou;se, in the last half dozen
years and has had to pay out very
little money on account of wrecks
or big damage suits, and when a
road can keep down this item of ex-
pense it is bound to be a money
maker. Mr.. Edison has made a
good general officer and of course
the Cotton Belt will retain him as
Dug as he chooses to remain as
general sunArintepdent.
