Seven { tars

"A Wise Woman" is good show. and
the troup that presented it at the Acade-
my of Music last night is a good troup.
There are only seven members of the
troup, including Master Clincher. the
ragbaby, who is fatherless and mother
less until the lasr act. but the troup as a
whole. might be termed the "Seven Stars"
of the travelling troups that come this
way. The plot is not pitched on a very
high plane. and the delineation of char
acter may be little eXtravagant. but
there Is a suspicion of real life in it, and
a zest and eallity about it that is funny
enough and entertaining enough for a
two hours performance. Miss Gear. Miss
Dale and Miss famous are all very clever
and in the characters of wife, ward and

roting chickens. He finally ran right
into the arms of one of the policemen,
and when ne was taken to the police

cut a Term fur Fraudulent use of
the Mail,

Deputy Marshall John c. Docllcry
brought a prisoner to Raleigh yester-
day whose case is OF considerable inter
est. His name is r. f. Sample. and he
was convicted five years ago in Elizabeth
City for fraudulent use of the mails, hut
judgment was suspended, and he escaped.
For three years the officers have been
trying to recapture him. and at last they
succeeded. He was caught in a swamp
dressed in woman's clothes and was
brought up in court at Elizabeth City
this week before Judge Purnell. He was
sentenced 10 Is months imprisonment in
Atlanta, and fine of $500 Deputy Mar
shall Dockery brought him here yesterday
on the way TO Atlanta, whore he viii be
taken next week.
Samples mode of operation was as
simple as it was rascally He would
simply take the signature of some man
who was we'll rated in Dun or Bradstreet
and forge his name TO a letter of recon-
mendation or security, and then on the
strength of that secure merchandise of
all Kinds on credit. He used the name
of Mr.. A. Alexander, of Creswell. in this
way on several occasions. Once ne or
dered a carload of buggies and got
them too.
There were forty cases against him
this time but the judge simply enforced
the old judgment of the court five years
ago. There were witnesses from CHICAGO.
New York, and many other places in
different parts of the country.
