RALEIGH SAFE BURGLARY
No Clue to the Robbers They Were
Not Professionals Capture of the
Gold Brick Swindlers- Killed by a
Cyclone Tho Circuit of North Caro-
lima Fairs.
Messenger Bureau.

Raleigh, \. c., March 20.
The burglars who blew open the safe
of the Southern Express office here last
night were evidently not professional
cracksmen. They broke into a black-
smith shop and secured the tools. The
time of night selected and the large
amount of dynamite used is another
indication that they did not know their
business thoroughly. The police nave
been unable to find any trace of them.
Several suspicious characters have been
seen here lately, but none upon whom
the police can fix.
The secretaries of the various fairs
held in the autumn in this state have
formed an association called the Circuit
of North Carolina Fairs, to secure a
regular circuit of races and midway
attractions. Raleigh, Winston, Green's
boro, Fayetteville and Aiamance fairs
are included.

Gen. William H. Cheek. whose death
was mentioned in yesterdays Messen-
ger was a very gallant and efficient
soldier. He was in the cavalry service
and served throughout the war. He
was Colonel Of the First North Carolina
cavalry, the first colonel OF which was
Gen. Robert Ransom. He thorough
ly organized it and made it a superior
body of soldiery. Reading a history Of
Hampton's Legion, many years ago,
We were much impressed with one fact
that whenever it was advancing to-
wards the enemy, the First North Car
DINA was in front. and when 1T was re-
firing the First North Carolina was
covering the retreat. Colonel Cheek was
appointed Brigadier General Just before
the fall of Petersburg. but owing to the
retreat of General Lees small army,
he never received his commission He

Uneasy lies the head that wears a
crown" An old m true saying.
Most of the crowned heads of the last
2, 900 years have died from violence.
The rulers in despotic Russia are par
ticularly unfortunate. If they escape
death they live in constant expectation
of it. The present young Car is DOOM
ed already. The student who was
chosen by the conspirators to kill him
betrayed the secret. The political sit
Iuation at St. Petersburg is extremely
grave. Bloody encounters have occur
ed in the streets between the Cossacks
and workmen. The dispatch from Lon
don on 25th stated this:
1.-THE police have discovered a plot
against the life Of the z 1t appears
that a group of students drew lots. and
the fatal choice fell to the son of a

The women often fare badly at the

The Chicago Post tells a tale that
shows the greed Of men and how it Of

In one part of that CITY many women

Some were widows and orphans who
had been provided for by hus-
bands who had died. What did the un-
holy lust for money cause men to do?
The Post tells as follows:
AT a meeting of the men property
holders it was decided that a park
