A CONTINUOUS PERFORMANCE.
How Robinson's Circus Evaded the
law and Played the Limit on
Durham'S Sheriff.

A circus for tricks! but the sharp
est that are gotten off by the people
of the saw-dust ring are not always
those that are on the proSrdnl' nor
do they tend always and only to the
amusement OF the audiences who,
trooping in hand i'll hand from the
country eat the peanuts and swallow
the cochineal lemonade that warm the
heart and Supply the brain 10 the
proper appreciation of the Jokes OF
the clown.
Notwithstanding the fact that every
body includin' of the parson' who
goes to spot his flock '-goes to the
circus and makes try at the games
and INDUCES in a loud guffaW at the
Jokes and crickS his neck at the star
spangled lady on the trapese and then
comes out and says with Il deeply
pessi mistic sigh that tits the same
old show the circus has been the
legitimate prey OF all men. Like
doing" a railroad out of ticket,
the sin OF robbing a circus or circus
man has become so venial as to be
almost a virtue.
Wherefore the circus man has also
become Dessimistic and suspicious TO
the degree that he has learned to
look you straight in the eye when ne
lies and laugh when he tricks you
from your coin.
Therefore it must be put down to
habt-.this trick that the circus play
ed on the Durham sheriff-the money
saved had nothing to do with the case.
BE it known that n North Carolina
law extracts umpty dollars from every
circus for each performance-the
Durham show carried a lawyer, evil
IDENTIFY for il knew. 1t came and
settled its tents and had its parade
and proceeded to take in the sheckles
for the afternoon performance, at
one o'clock. About this time a depu
ty walked up, got a free ticket to the
show and collected the required tax.
But after the performance came to
it's usual end, no concert was. an
nounced. Instead a clown came out,
mounted a donkey and rode solemnly
around the ring while the band play
ed. He did this again and again and
the tent was slowly emDued of the
people Finally it was quite empty;
the clown was funny no doubt in his
Solemnity but there was that of dis
concerning monatomy about the per-
Torrance. Al the AFTERNOON the
band played and clown after clown
and donkey after donkey made the
circuit of the ring. People heard the
music and wondered. Surely it was
a queer circus
I'm the evening the people came
back, also the sheriff.
&c way" said the Snowman, pointing
to the clown who was still riding
YEARLY but persistently round and
round the ring: I'VE don't give but
one performance in this town-see."
And the Snowman threw a wink
that had come from Alaska in cold
storage and laughed like a llyerla
from the hills.

ROBT. JONES TO WE'D
Proposition OF Marriage
to be Made by Boy Who
Ruined Lena Moody.

The case of State VS.. Robert Jones,
charged with the seduction under
promise of marriage of Lena Moody,
court in the one way satisfactory to
both partieS-the marriage of the two
young people involved.
MIR. Jones was i'll Raleigh yesterday
consulting with his attorneys and has
son. who fled before the warrant Tor
his arrest was issued was somewhere
in reach of the city.
AS the result of their deliberations,
it is understood that 1t was decided to
make definite proposition of mar
riage to the family of the young Wo-
man.
Of course this will mean that the
boy will come out of hiding and the
trouble Will soon be adjusted. 1t is
understood that the attorneys for the
prosecution have been consulted and
that they are willing to drop the
matter in case the parents of the
young girl consent which they VIII
doubtless be glad to do.
The extreme youth of both the boy
charged with the crime and the girl
who has now become a mother render
the case one of the saddest of its SORT
which has ever arisen in Wake coun-
tv Both Robert Jones and Lena
Moody belong to prosperous ana high
~ respected families of the county,
and before the present scandal, moth
ing had ever been whispered against
the good name of either of them. The
boy is barely sixteen years of age, and
the girl is scarcely that The two
were SWeetheartS and had young
dreams of a happy marriage out OF
which grew dangerous folly. The case
is one which would seem to call more
for sympathy than censure, and the
news that there is the prospect of the
healing. so far as may be, of wounds
which have caused good people so
much of trouble, VIII meet With faV-
orable reception generally.
Had the case come to trial, it would
have been an interesting one apart
from its necessarily sensational char
acter on the point whether d boy of
the age of young Jones could be con-
victed under the statute making Sc
duction under promise of marriage a
felony. 1t will be remembered that
under the law no contract of mar
riage is binding unless the parties to
the contract are at least sixteen years
of age. AS at the time of the alleged
seduction, young Jones was not of that
age he had no power to make the
contract; and, since the crime aimed
at by the statute is the making of the
marriage contract for the purpose of
seduction and not the criminal inter-
course in itself, it would seem that,
where no contract was possible, there
could have been no seduction within
the meaning of the statute.

A sANCTIFIED "wmD-CATTER. =
Insurance Man Goebel. of tho Ma
tional Relief Association. Ar
rested While Holding Meet
inc Near Spray.

Insurance Commissioner James Il.
Young returned yesterday from a trip
to Spray, where he had just procured
the arrest and conviction before
magistrate Of p. =. GoebeI who rep
resented tho National Relief Associa-
ton, life. health and accident COM
pany, neither he nor the company
having been licensed to do business
in the State. Goebel was bound over
to court after the trial in the sum OF
Zoo.
Goebcl, it seems. is both Il man OF
business and a follower of that most
fervent and sef-satisfying brand OF
religious exercise. the dogma OF
''sanctification." 1t is always ticklish
TO NEEDLE with the buzz-saW of
schisn, but sanctification. as it hits
E.he material min0. would seem to be
based on a sort of moral evolution OF
the old idea that 'thc King can do
no wrong"-a theory the practical
application of which has gotten more
than one brother Ger this into violent
conflict with the unenlightene6 min
ions of the law.
Perhaps il was because he took his
religion seriously to--fIeart that
Brother Goebel took honestly to the
profession of CAB for a living without
going through the formality OF pro-
curing a license from the State.
However this may be, when Mr..
Young got To Spray, he found that
his man was off at Stoneville. nine
miles in the country. conducting a
sanctification meeting with much
eclat There he was nabbed in the
midst Of his flock and hailed back 70
court at Spray.
Now speech is free-the constitu-
ton SAYS so-talk is an inalienable
right is practiced ad libitum-
~
heard 'cn-so do insurance men
who will deny Sanctifed. then
why may not one try it2
Could any reasoning be clearer?
Does not the arrest of Mr.. Goebel rise
up to haunt the happy dreams of those
who mutter liberty or death" while
they sleep and snore to the cadences
of the Star SDangled Banner?
Yet is it ever thus: the age is a
cold one which puts dollars above the

DISCOURSE ON THE NEGRO.
Miss Gladys Whitney DiscOurseS at
Length With Melissa Sumerlin
as Horrible Example,
and Ends Before
the Mayor.

Miss Gladys Whitney, white, and
Melissa Sumerlin, very black, were
before Mayor Powell yesterday
charged with disorderly conduct
Gladys having "owned up" and paid
her line, Melissa was discharged
Gladys and Melissa live over
yonder side by side III friendship but,
Wednesday, Gladys took it into her
little blonde head to exercise her
lungs, so that she called Melissa to
the dividing fence and expressed nef-
self With Huency and power. Ut is
stated that her Grafton included the
various theories of the origin OF the
negro race and a discussion of it's
laDses from the path Of morality
and its Droclivities in the direction Of
theft, murder, arson and uncleanll-
ness. Warming to her subject Miss
Gladys eXpatiated on the antecedents
of Melissa and applied to the history
many red and vivid adjectives. 1t Is
stated that she was frequently cheer
ed by the crowd and that her perora-
ton-juSt before the police arrived
was masterpiece of descriptive
hyDerbole.
Miss Whitney, who was formerly
distinguished histrionic star, came to
Raleigh some years ago with an
Uncle Toms Cabin" troupe which
met with 50 loud a protest from the
Daughters OF the COnfederacY that
the manager departed in the night
leaving little EVa-that is Gladys
alone IN a friendIeSS world with only
a trunk and golden haired wig.
When the bloodhounds left, title Eva
was all alone and she has stayed from
that day to this. She has learned the
veruacular of the deep east to per-
lection and her Grafton was delivered
with all the airs and graces of the
stage, strengthened by the plain,
rough phrases that distinguish the
talk of her compatriotS
1t should be said-en passant-that
no one can play Little Eva until she
is forty and that the coy SAVIOR of
youth that somehow clings to
GLADYS" is all that is childish about
Miss Whitney-also that she is not
White-but gold and red.
And the green sea incarnadine"
would be a good quotation were it not
for another incongruity:

Eva. is anything but greeni

Mr. j. A. Thomas, editor of the
Louisburg Times, who was one of the
friends who came to Raleigh with Mr..
PurneIl, was seen last night ana
questioned as to the case. Mr.. Thomas
idea is that the matter was not an
attempt at black mail. as has been
suggested, but that Mrs. Davis was
the victim of an impoStor who knew
Mr.. Purnell and was travelling under
his name. He had a strong idea as
to who this man was, however, stat
ing that, if he was the man whom ne
suspected, he came to Raleigh some
time ago on an excursion from NOR
folk and stayed here for several DAYS.
Mr.. Thomas, of course, refused 10
give the name of this party, but sala
that he would be looked for ana, IL
the facts could be established, would
be punished to the extent of the law
Mr.. Purnelis friends were all mug
nant at his arrest and were lncIhed
to blame the magistrate ISSUING me
warrant for the unfortunate position
i'm which he was placed. They say that
Justice Reid should not have issued
the warrant without investigation,
especially as he knew that Mr. Huf-
nell had written to the woman deny
ing the charges; and they point out IN
support of this position that they
have been unable to get any descrlp-
ton of the man who is alleged to
have been guilty OF the crime. That
much caution at least should have
been exercised before a respectable
man was arrested ON q warrant charg-
ing him with q petty theft.
Justice Read says that as soon as
MS. Davis can be found, he will
investigate the whole af-
fair and Mr.. Purnell and his friends
will also enIeavor to get at the bot
tom of the mystery and see that the
guilty parties are properly punished.
