These proceedings are the outgrowth
OF an inspection OF Captain Brooks

While in Cuba CAPTAIN Brooks pur-
chased several boxes OF candy. three
boxes OF cigars. and a few other goods
for personal use and placed these in h!s
trunks together with his clothing anc
other necessities. The journey hous
was made on a Ward Line steamer.

mitted 10 the customs officers declar-
alton of his duttable goods and his

Brooks was published by the New York
papers. Collector Stranahsn conducted a
personal investigation Of the charges.
With the exception OF one person. all the
witnesses denied in toto the charges
made by Captain Brooks The collector
said also that afhdavits were obtained
from members OF Captain Brooks party
that the charges he had made were un-
founded. This is contrary TO the asser-
tion OF Captain Brooks. who declared
that no member OF his party remained on
the dock 10 see the examination of his

Perused by Mr.. Shaw.

When Collector Stranahan's report
was received by Assistant Secretary
Spaulding. IL was sent for the personal
perUsal of Secretary Shaw. This action
was taken because OF the seriousness Of
the charges that We're made. After re-
viewing the evidence Secretary Shaw IN
dorsed the action OF the customs service
IN New York and sent the papers in the
case TO Postmaster General Payne.
Secretary Shaw however. did not stop
with the eXoneration OF the officials in
New York. He sent letter TO the POST
amster General suggesting that the crit
icism made by an employe OF the Gov
ernment against another department OF
the Government so lessoned the worth OF
the official who found fault that he was
better out of the service than in H.

Burned to Death.

At the home of Mr.. Junius Belvin
a few miles from town, last Monday
afternoon, his mother, Mrs. Nat
Belvin, was accidentally burned to
death. 1t was very sad affair and
the family have the sympathy of the
community in the unfortunate occur
renee. Mrs. Belvln lost her mind two
or three years ago. She had been
tenderly and lovingly cared for and
everything possible was done for her
comfort and safety. Monday after
noon Mr.. Belvin came to Henderson
on business. Mrs. Junius Belvin
went out to prepare supper leaving
Mrs. Nat Belvin in the room alone
She returned shortly afterward and
found her mother-in-law sitting
where she left her, some distance
from the fire There was but little
fire in the room at the time and she
went to the kitchen little thinking
there was any danger of the sad oc-
currence which soon followed. When
she went to carry in supper Mrs.
Belvin found the unfortunate woman
lying on the floor dead. Her clothing
was burned off of her, the chair in
which she sat was charred and the
floor where she lay was blackened
from the effects of the fire. No out
cry had been made and just how the
accident occurred is a mystery. Mrs.
Belvin was about seventy-four years
of age and was kind hearted, good
woman who had the respect and es
TEEN of all who knew her.
