JACK THE THIEF CATCHER,
HELD A MAN ALL NIGHT

A burglar in John Pappa's saloon. II
South Broad street. Friday night was
freed by Pappa's prize bull dog, Jack,
and guarded all night long. until the sa-
loon was opend next morning and the
burglar discovered. Alas. the good dogs
vigilance came to naught, for no sooner
had the burglar been transferred TO hui
man surveillance than he made dash
and attained hts liberty. Safely the dog
guarded him all through the night and he
had not dared to attempt an escape. but
when the faithful dog was called on and
only man stood between him and liberty.
he decided TO take the chance and make
good his EFFORT.
AS soon as the porter found the burg
lar he reported II TO J. NJ. Spear, who Is
employed in the place.
What did you steal7 he asked OF the
burglar.
steal! stealr' exclaimed the man. 'T
didn't steal anything. How the devil
could a man steal when a dog had him
freed all night. Now. look here" con-
tinued the man. II don't think you ought
to have me arrested. / have suffered
enough, perched up there in the cold all
night with a bull dog as big as a Hon
snarling at my heels"
Spear was inclined to ponder over the
matter, and while he was considering the
matter, the burglar suddenly made dash
for liberty. The dog had been called OF
and the thief having no fear OF man,
sprang past his human captor. jumped
through a glass door and was gone.

MINISTERS FIGHT
BEER IN COLLEGE
FIFTY-sIx PINTs FOR NINETY-sEV,

TOO MUCH.

BOSTON. Dec. 2A-Recent reports Of
the Inauguration OF "Kommcrs" at the
Massachusetts Institute OF Technology
having aroused the clergymcn OF various
denominations. the matter was considered
formally by the Baptist. Methodist ana
Congregationalist ministers.
At the Methodist preachers meeting Rev
Dr. ". T. Worth. OF Auburndale, reported
for the investigating committee. saying
that DR.. PritchcJt, the president OF the
Massachusetts Institute Of Technology,
wrote 20 the committee letter, In which
he said that the amount OF beer drunk at
the student smoker was only s. pints
for q men and that he allowed gatherings
OF classes on the property OF the lnstitu-
ton. where a simple lunch was furnished,
TO have a moderate amount OF beer, rather
than have the students meet at hotels and
restaurants.
The investigating committee declares
that IL is not question Of pints and
quarts. but a question OF principle.
Resolutions were adopted by this body
and somewhat similar ones presented by
Rev. Dr. A c. Dixon at the Baptist
meeting, deploring the step taken which
seeks TO establish among students the

WANTS PUPILS .
TO KEEP SEATS
HON. HoKE SMITH is OPPOSED TO
DIsMIssINe CHILDREN FROM
PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

Hon. Hoke Smith, president Of the board
of education, does not believe that the
children of parents and guardians who do
not pay their taxes will lose their seats IN
the public schools.
He is of the opinion that 1t is the chill
dren Of the poor who should be entitled
10 education in the public schools.
Mr.. Smith. speaking Of the matter, said:
81 do not think there is cause for uu-
easiness on the part of the children in
the public schools. II is hardly probable
that any of them will lose their seats.
There may be few I'm the schools not en-
titled to be there. The board of education
has followed the policy. where the ques-
tion of right to be in the schools was
doubtful, to solve the doubt in favor of
the child, believing 1t to be better that
child should be improperly admitted 10
the schools than that a child should be
improperly excluded.
Il feel sure that a revision Of the list
will greatly reduce the number Of those
whose parents do not pay at least poll or
street tax, but the payment of tax by the
parents or guardians is not the legal test
for the admission of children into our
schools. Many are the children of widows
without property and liable to no tax, and
even though the father should be alive
and by reason of his poverty unable to
contribute anything in money to the city,
none the less is ii important that the
child should be trained mentally and NOR
ally in schools
Indeed. it is the opportunity which the
public schools give for the development
of such children, who otherwise could not
receive an education, that especially ap-
peals to my head and heart"

General Sherman was IN Savannah-At-
lanta was in ashes, and there were burn
ed houses. desolated and impoverished
homes and poverty-stricken families from
the mountains to the seaboard in Georgia.
The Confederate forces were still hold
ing the lines in Virginia. fighting all the
time against odds and very largely
against hope.
Provisions were scarce and very high.
Confederate money was getting Jess ana
less valuable every day.
Scarcely a home had escaped bereave-
ment, none had escaped great anxiety and
privation and the outlook was fairly dense
with overshadowing gloom and apprehen-
sion.
Our little family skedaddled in front OF
Sherman, and we were three full weeks
in getting around and away from his
tolls before we reached the refugee shelf
err once more. General Wheeler occupied
the refugee shelter when he and General
Sherman's troops were close together, and
General Wf1eeler's troops took everything
in sight, because, as you know, he thought
Sherman might take all we had and ne
might as well take 1t himself.
one lusty hog fed to the canebrake and
saved his hide until we came back when
we butchered him. because we had moth
ing but corn bread to eat. and that must
be hauled twenty miles, from Twiggs
county before we might eat the corn
pone. Such destruction and such contus-
ion as we encountered!
When think of General Kruger's peo-
pie down In South Africa, my mind goes
back to the southern people during the
civil war.
But there was wood to be had for the
cutting and hauling and we had hres 10
keep the house warm. There was no Ker-
osene in those days, but pine knots we're
plentiful. so we did not sit in the dark.

IRISH NATIONAL MUSEUM.
A 100000 Corporation Organized to
Make Irish Exhibit at ST. Louis
Worlds Fair.


CT LOFTS. Dec. 2s.-"The Irish people
win be represented at the st. Louis
worlds Fair with an exhibit which VIII
show the other people Of the world what
an important factor that race OF people
has been in its development" said Cap
tain John ]. O'Connor, secretary OF the
Irish Worlds Fair association, to press
representative yesterday. Under the nag
of every nation on the globe the Irishman
will be found in the front rank as citi-
zen. soldier and statesman, and yet at
tbe Great International expositions of the
mast this mighty race of people have had
no distinctive representation outside OF
an alleged Irish village in the Mid
wav.' It is high time Irishmen OF brains
and culture took this matter In hand.
Tn ST Louis Irishmen there are plenty
who realize the truth of the situation.
Thev have perfected the organization OF
the Irish Worlds Fair Association, ana
IL has been decided that the exhibit which
n will have at the Louisiana Purchase Ex-
position in 1903 shall be made permanent
after the fair. and shall be known as
0The. Irish National Museum A corpo-
ration with a capital Of 100000, divided
into GOO 900 shares of $1.00 each, will invite
Irishmen in all parts Of the world to be-
come stockholders. The building this
company will erect will be a fireproof,
permanent structure. and In 1t Will be
stored a display OF Irish products, anti
duties, literature and arts
An Irish worlds fair commission will be
appointed in every state and territory OF
the United States; commissioners Will be
appointed in several foreign countries.
and 1t is probable that an honorary
board of foreign directors will be chosen.
The organization of a ladies' auxiliary In
also under consideration.

VALIDITY OF BONDS
WILL Be SETTLED
IMPORTANT NORTH CAROLINA
QUESTION PENDING BEFORE
U. S. COURT OF APPEALS.

CHARLOTTE, n. c., Dec. 23.-It is
learned on trustworthy authority that 1t
is tho Judgment OF two Of the Judges OF
the United States circuit court of appeals
that the bonds issued by Stanly and
Wilkes counties are valid, and must be
paid. It is said that Judges Boyd and
Morris so hold, while Judge Com dis
sents This decision is In cases involving
$500. 900, but Indirectly involves many bond
issues. The counties in question some
years ago issued bonds to aid in building
a railroad. A few years later 1t was found
that there was a technical flaw In the
way in which the laws authorizing the is
sues were passed by the legislature, and
the county authorities refused to pay any
more interest and Coler & Co., OF New
York. for the various stockholders,
brought suit, and the case has been holly
contested in the courts. Among the hold
ers of some Of the bonds in question Is
the University of North Carolina The
case will probably go to the United States
supreme court. It has already been be-
fore that tribunal once, on a certain
phase OF It's many features.
1t is said that the efforts to have these
bonds declared void has hurt the sale OF
North Carolina securities, and many
North Carolinians are fearful that the
states credit will be materially injured
by what they term efforts to get out OF
paying a just debt by reason of tech
nicality. Probably the worst feature OF
the matter is that If the courts finally
hold that the bonds are worthless the suf-
ferers will be innocent parties, who pur-
chased the bonds in good faith. and who
had nothing to do with the handling of
the proceeds from their sale. The rail-
roads which the bonds were intended to
aid have been built and in operation for
some years.

CITIZENS OF TEXAS
OUSTEO BY SULTAN
TURK DECLARES ALL VISITORS
MUST ABANDON UNCLE SAM If
THEY WANT TO STAY.

DALLAS, Texas, Dec. PA special to
The News from Waco, Texas, says:
Several citizens of Waco, formerly of
Beyrout, Syria, who went to their child
hoods home to visit friends, have cabled
here for transportation back to Texas,
having learned that the Turkish govern
ment objects to their presence in that por-
ton of the sultan's domain unless they
are willing to renew their allegiance to
Turkey and abandon their rights as natur-
allied citizens Of the United States. The
Syrian colony here is composed of sub
stantial citizens and they promptly met
the demand of their countrymen across
the ocean by sending transportation, as
desired. The leading Syrians here say the
sultan will rigidly enforce his order and
Will deal harshly with his former subjects
unless the United States interferes in their
behalf.

The Millennium Will Come,
Says Pilgrim Barton, i'm 1915

Pilgrim Barton's sermons are not so
very different from those Of the average
minister. His audience Sunday was
small. and he took 1t for granted that all
present understood :he plan under which
he was working. The new church accepts
T-.ozt CT the doctrines OF all the churches
and reconciles them to its own satisfac-
ton. One church. they believe. puts all
its faith IN one or several features Of the
divine plan. other churches, another or
others. but the new church accepts prac-
tically all and harmonizcs them. You
must bring every string OF the harp into
play 10 get complete harmony" Pilgrim
Barton says.

church. IS very different from what most
people have always believed. The day Of

TURKEY MAY ExPEL
AMERICAN CITIZENS

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2s.-The state
department confirms the report that Mr..
Eddy. our charge at Constantinople, is in
correspondence with the porte relative to
the proposed expulsion of naturalized Am
erican citizens from Turkey unless these
citizens abandon their allegiance to the
United States.
Owing to the absence Of naturaliza-
ton treaty between the United States and
Turkey our government has no spe-
cial authority to interfere in behalf Of
these naturalized citizens as against an
edict of expulsion. The reliance upon
broad principles of international law is
not strong for the principle that a nation
may refuse to allow its citizens to change
their nationality has been pretty well es-
tablished. But, admitting the right OF ex-
pulsion, the United States government
has itself a right to insist that this shall
not be attended by hardship such as
might result from the allowance of very
limited period of time for leaving Tur-
key. 1t is probable that Mr. Eddy will
take advanced ground on that point, If
he cannot secure the abandonment of the
projected order of expulsion.
