INSURANCE swINDLER ARRESTED.
Insurance Commissioner Youug's Excellent
Work in Running q i'm Down.

The State Insurance Commissioner Mr.
]. r. Young has returned from Keys
vile, Va, where he arrested j. A. Mas
sey, of East Durham, whom he had been
after for four weeks for defrauding the
people of the State by taking applica-
lions for life Insurance, not sending them
in but pocketing the money that he col
lected from his victims.
Massey when arrested agreed to come
back to North Carolina without any
requisition and Mr.. Young brought him
to oxford, where he was tried and bound
over to court in $1,000 bond He could
not give this and in default went to jail.
1t is estimated that in the last six
months he has collected and pocketed
anywhere from $500 to 81 900. He is known
to have operated in Johnston, Guilford,
Randolph. Caswell and Granville coun
ties, and the people whom he fleeced
have had no returns of any kind of poll
cies.
Massey was recognized in Richmond
and information was sent here. Before
Mr.. Young reached Richmond he had
skipped but was found by Mr.. Young at
Keysville and taken to urban.

The First Symptoms.

The first symptom of baseball fever
made its appearance in our city yester-
day. The patient is King Kelly, the
original captain of the Red Birds He
will in a few days start out on a tour
and try to organize a Virginia North
Carolina League, and it is proposed to
either take Raleigh or Durham.
Experts who have examined the first
symptom say the case has not developed
far enough to determine the final results,
and While the patient still holds his own,
some seem to have serious doubts as to
what the outcome may be. Others seem
to think that a complication is likely to
set in at any moment and spread over
the entire section of the State Cold
weather may check it's progress for
awhile, as it is a summer complaint, but
it is very likely to make it's appearance
in more serious form later on.

REPUBLICAN GORGE RISES
Wise and Roosevelt's Negro Policy Repudiated

Newport News, Va, Feb. 20.-Attorncy
George Nelms Wise, nephew of John s.
Wise, speaking tonight at the banquet
of the Huntington Republican Club, the
largest Republican organization of its
kind in the South, repudiated the senti-
ments of President Roosevelt and John
S. Wise with reference to the race prob
lem Mr. Wise argued that the negro
should be let severely alone to work
out his own fate. In no other way will
the race problem be settled or the future
of the negro race in America be de-
termined.
Hon. Harry X Walcott, former Repub-
lican chairman for this Congressional
district, spoke along the same lines in
responding to the toast George Wash
ington" Mr. Walcott incidentally re-
marked that it was a long step from
Washington to Roosevelt. He maintained
that it would be the part of wisdom
to remember that the negro is not popu-
lar in the South before giving him Fed
eral office in a Southern community.
Both speeches were received with APP
plause.
