JACK MONEHAN ARRESTED.
Drives off With a Team He Dosen't Own.

Jack Monenan. a white man VINO
lives about six miles South of Garner.
while in Raleigh yesterday committed
an act which may result in placing
him behind prison bars. This act was
taking possession OF mule, horse
wagon and harness belonging to other
people. and driving the outfit twelve
miles into the country without the
consent or even knowledge Of the
owners of the property.
Behind the blacksmith shop Of Mr..
Rafe Andrews. on Salisbury street.
is a shed where those who drive to
the city may shelter their teams.
Among the teams that were hltched
under this shed yesterday were Il
mule and buggy belonging to Miss
Reddino Perry. who came from Au-
burn. horse belonging to Mr.. {. X.
Butt. of Cary, and palr of mules
and II wagon belonging to negro
named Chas. Allen.
MOnehan. about one O'Clock yester-
day went to the shed, hitched up
Miss Redding's horse and Mr.. Butts
mule to Aliens double wagon and
proceeded to get himself out of the
city.
About half an hour later Allen re-
turned to the shed. and found that
his wagon had disappeared. though
his mules were there. The other par
ties arrived and found their buggies
safe enough but their teams gone.
The police were notified and investi-
cations were Immediately set on foot.
There was no trouble in tracing
Monehan. and q message was received
from Garner about three o'clock in
the afternoon, stating that he had
Just passed through with the missing
team. He was arrested about 1870
o'clock yesterday by Constable Potter
and brought back to the city. He Will
receive a preliminary hearing before
Justice Harry Roberts today.
When arrested he was near the
home of Mr. Tom Turner. who lives
about six miles south of Garner, and
il is said that he was intoxicated
when arrested.
Some people here believe that he was
too intoxicated at the time he took
the team TO realize what he was do
ing. and it does not seem probable
that a sober man would have attempt
such thing in the broad open day
light.
The horse and mule he drove off
were both in single harness. but
hitched to a double wagon, and he
drove the team straight to where he
was known, and where detection
was certain.

VANCE MONUMENT UNWILLING.
Hardly Probable That the Ceremony Will Take
Place on July 4th.

Sometime ago it was proposed to I'M
veil the Vance monument here on July
4th, that being a National holiday was
considered a good date for the ceremony.
This suggestion has been generally ac-
cepted, but now it seems probable that
the unwilling ceremony will be a week
OF two later-on July 18th or 18th, say
The statue will be shipped from New
York on June goth, if the foundry keeps
it's promise. This will hardly give time
to insure it's arrival here and its being
put in place in time for the ceremony.
Again July 4th is the date for the DEM
ocratic National convention at Kansas
City and number of the prominent men
of the State who wish TO be here at the
unwilling will be in attendance that day
on the convention. One of these is DR..
r. H. Speight a member of the Legisla-
tive committee having the erection OF
the monument in charge.
And still another objection to July 4th
is that the Guilford Battle Ground Asso-
citation has long made use of this day
to hold its celebration, and if the monu-
ment is unveiled on the same day the
two events will, of course, conflict and
detract from the crowds at each.
These are only suggestions that are
being made on the streets. nothing def
mite in regard to date has as yet been
determined upon by the committee and
will not be for some days.

Mr.. Lewis and Convict Labor.

To the Editor: Some days ago l noticed
an article in the Times Visitor charging
Mr. Julius Lewis, Chairman of the Board
of County Commissioners of Wake county
with doing injustice to the free labor by
doing work with convicts, which an I'M
thoughtful person would say was detri-
mental to their interest. Having thought
this matter over and being mechanic
by trade, | insert this as a defense to
Mr. Lewis, having done nothing other
than having some painting done by the
convicts on job belonging to the coun-
ty, and otherwise it would have cost
about three times as much, except for the
economical views of Mr.. Lewis. AS a
dispenser of the peoples money he is the
proper man to retain the place which he
now holds.

No, papers have yet been filed in

out the following statement in re-
gard TO the grounds on which his
claim is based:
..Since 1893 the board of commits

lied the sheriffs in settling with the
auditor for State taxes, to deduct the
entire cost for making out taN-lists
and abstracts. which some years
amounts to $1,000 year al III the
aggregate for the last SIN years
has amounted to over $4,000
Our view of the matter under the
law is that the entire expense oil
executing the tax levy and revenue
acts is on the county. and no other
county. so far as we have been able
70 find. have ever deducted anything
on this account

the only daughter of one OF our most
honored citizens. the late {. {. Bar
bee. and leaves his wife and four
children-Andrew. Christopher. James
