SET MERRY-GO-ROUND ON FIRE
A Negro in Durham is Arrested foI
Arson.

Especial to News and Observer
Durham, n. c., June 20.-Last
night between and 10 o'clock tina
fire department was called out on ac-
count of the merry go-round, owned
by Mr.. Pride Lyon, being on fire. inc
blaze was soon knocked out but not
until the tent was burned and horses
and organ damaged to the extent or
some $500 or $1,000. From the very
first it was evident that the fire was
of incendiary origin and the police
we're not long in arresting at least
one OF the guilty parties clinton
Morris, a negro about 20 years OF
age, was given Il hearing in the police
court this morning and the evidence
against him was conclusive Ihere
we're witnesses who heard him say
ne was going to burn the property
and two boys saw him in the act the
lent covering the hobby horses is useG
as sleeping quarters for negro en-
oloyed at the machine and the charge
against Morris was that of arson. He
was committed to Jail without bail.
The evidence developed the fact
that Morris was mad because he was
told to stay away from the merry-go-
round and ne burned the property To
get even. He poured some five gal
Ions of gasoline on the machine and
the machine was greatly damagedi
There was another boy with Morris,
a small negro. but he has skipped
and the police have been unable &c,
get him The merry-g o-round was
nut in last week at a cost of $4,000.
Recently the police have been wor-
ried in trying to ferret out and run
down a gang of negro Kids who nave
heen breaking brass and stealing iron
crates from boilers at some of the
| shops about town. This morning
they had four small fellows in the
police court and it was proven that
they had stolen CRATE irons from a
| boiler belonging to Paul Wheeler,
| They were so small that Judgment
was held up on condition that the
negroes be given good whipping in
the presence of an officer. rms was
readily agreed to and in the basement
of the court house a short while af-
| forwards there was wall that told
of the Whipping being in progress.

HOTELS AND RESORTS.
First Aid to the Fatigued.
Home at The Inside Inn Inside The
Fair Grounds Insures Pleasant Visit
TO The Worlds Fair.
No EXtOrtiOn Here-The Rates Are
Fixed by The Authorities.

So much is there to be seen at the
Worlds Fair that one might start at
the beginning, eat and sleep on the
way and still not see everything were
a months time consumed in the tour
of Exposition streets and aisles.
Frail humanity would not be equal
to such a task, but there has been a
way provided by which the visitor
may see the Exposition in its fullness
and to the best advantage with as lit
tie loss of time and energy as poSSi-
BILE.
The Inside Inn is situated on the
Exposition grounds, where the visitor
who wishes to spend his time profita-
bly, may secure accommodations that
will enable him to arise with the
awakening of the Exposition, just out
side his windows and begin a tour
of inspection that can continue until
long after the mantle of night spreads
over the spectacle. Then a refuge will
be afforded him right at hand.
No struggling with the crowds, wait
ing for street cars or pushing a way
to the ticket booths for guests of the
Inside Inn. All of these discomforts
have been saved him by an arrange
ment with the Exposition by which he
may stay inside the grounds as long
as he is guest at the hotel. He Will
have not only the comforts of the
spacious hotel on one of the coolest
and most beautiful spots OF the Ex-
position, but the privileges of the par
lors, reception rooms offices and YER
andas, where he may rest at intervals
during the day and mingle with agree
able company.
The Inside Inn is on the Intramural
railway, which penetrates every part
of the grounds, and it is near the Pla-
tpau of States. overlooking the main
picture of the Fair 1t is reached from
Union Station by three car lines. The
Inside Inn has 500 rooms at $3.50
per person; 500 at $500 and 500 at
$3.50. The total number of rooms is

Without Definite Plans.
The Indiana delegation held a meet
ing in Governor Durbin's room today
when the vice presidential nomination
of Senator Fairbanks was discussed.
After an adjournment it was stated
that they were just where they were
before and were without definite
plans. At the same time it was said
that the attitude of the delegation was
that Indiana would be pleased to have
Senator Fairbanks receive the noml-
nation. A motion declaring that to
be the sense of the delegation was
made, but Senator Fairbanks said
that was stronger than he desired,
and the motion was withdrawn. Mem
bers of the delegation differed as to
the position the State should take in
view of this development but 1ndiVld-
ually they would like to have the
Senator nominated and the State
would appreciate the honor.
Senator Fairbanks made a speech
of some length, saying that he had
not been a candidate, and was not
candidate now and that he had been
urged to become a candidate and that
he had not changed his position from
the time he was first mentioned for
the place. The Senator would not be
put in the attitude of seeking the
place. Members of the delegation
said that the Senator would accept,
but it was not the intention of Indiana
to present his name to the conVen-
ton.

Especial to News and Observer
Oak Ridge, N. c.. June 20-The re-
cent great game of baseball between.
the Chicago Nationals and the New

Wicker of the Chicago team chut out
the New YorkS. with McGintY in the
box for New York. in the 12-inning
game, letting down the New Yorks
with only one scratch hit recalls the
fact that Wicker spent two years at
Oak Ridge Institute in 1899 and 1900.
He then gave great promise of being
a good ball player, and his present po-
stion on the Chicago team isfprobably
due to n game in which Mr.. Selee saw
him play in Greensboro, between the
Oak Ridge team and the Bostons. His
friends here are very proud of his
showing.
George Stephens, now president of
the Southern States Loan and Trust
Company, Charlotte, was prepared for
college here, and pitched his first ball
with the Oak Ridge team. He was at
one time, without question, the best
college pitcher in the country.

another Oak Ridge man, and so is
Suggs of the Jacksonville. South At

another man, of Nashville, seems to be
leading the hitting in the Southern
