This lecture by Mr.. Watterson has car
ried all audiences by storm wherever it
has been heard, and the people of Rail
eigh are particularly fortunate in having
the opportunity of enjoying it at the
Raney Library Hall next Monday evening

of the greatest editors in the country, but
is probably unequaled in the force of his
eloquence and the originality of his
thoughts.
The Mobile Register says: "Mr. Wat
terson delighted everybody. His lecture
on Money and Morals is full of light

thought, masterpiece in short, of all
that can command and delight an au-

New York. April 1.-THE Committee
of Fifteen raided seven alleged pool
rooms this afternoon. The raids were
made on warrants issued by Justice Je-
rome and upon evidence by the staff of
detectives working for the committee
under the direction of Superintendent
John McCullagh. The raids in each case
were personally conducted by individual
members OF the committee. assisted by
their own detectives and policemen of the
regular force from the precinct in which
the raid was made. In only one place
did the raiders fail to make any arrests
and C. c. Brewster, of the committee
openly says the inmates of the place re-
lceived tip from the police that the place
was about to be raided.
A feature of the raiding was the effort
by at least two of the police officials to
prove that the places raided were not
pool rooms, but orderly and well conduct
ed clubs.
The places raided, together with the
number of prisoners taken in each place
were as follows:
Allen the alleged superintendent and two
others larrested
A room on Canal Street, four prisoners.
A room on Mercer Street, one prisoner.
The Bon Ton Club. on West Twenty
third street, four prisoners.
A place on East Eighth street, five
prisoners.
A place on East Fourteenth street, three
prisoners.
A room at Eighth Avenue and Four
teenth street. no prisoners and no evil
dcnce obtained
1t was in connection with the latter
place that Mr.. Brewster accused the po
lice of warning the pool room proprietor
He said the police moved so slowly that
he urged them to hurry, but met with a
rebuff When Mr.. Brewster reached the
place ahead of the police his own agents
told him some one had come to the place
a few minutes after he went to the sta
tion and given a tip to forty. or fifty men
within and they had all left They We're
still coming out when he got there.
When the policemen arrived the place
was empty. Six books of racing charts, a
rubber speaking tube and some racing
slips were seized. Mr.. Brewster later en-
tered a protest concerning the action of
the policemen, to Captain Moynihan, who
is in command of the precinct, but who
was not present at the station when Mr.
Brewster presented his warrants for ser
vice.

To the Editor: The communication in
Tuesdays issue of your paper in which
the statement is made that the young
people of Selma have organized theatre
cal troupe and gone on the road in the
interest of the Methodist church of this
place, is misleading; does an injustice
to these young people, to the church, and
is not a fact at all. The young people
Of the church have given several enter
tainments here and at Smithfeld at one
time and another, using the proceeds to
meet various items of expense incurred
in our church work. They have given
ice cream suppers. Now and then a
birthday party, sometimes a concert,
sometimes play. In a word they have
been using the same means in vogue in
every place and only those, so far as
know.
