Wrote Roosevelt That War Amonq
Flies Had Been Caused by Naming
People Wrongly.
(By the Associated Press. J

Washington, Feb. 22.-Edward Relgar,
who gave his address as 271 South Clark
street, Chicago, was arrested at the
White House today and locked up pend
ing an inquiry into his mental condition.
Relgar is evidently of unbalanced mind.
He has written many letters to the Presi-
dent suggesting that people be named in
accordance with their occupations. Thus
he maintains that a dealer in wood should
be named Wood a carpenter should be
named Carpenter; and so on throughout
the list of the names. He says that the
present scheme of naming people has
caused a war among the fies which may
be ended only by the adoption of his sug-
gestion Relgar desired to see the Presi-
dent to ascertain why his letters had not
been answered When he was searched
a loaded revolver and a box of cartridges
were found in his pockets.

Mr. L. A. Miller, of the Raleigh branch
of the Sperry & Hutchins Green Trading
Stamps Company, left yesterday for Win
ston with Mr.. E. E. Beeson, the State
manager, who will open up the Winston
branch. They say that majority OF the
merchants there will use green trading
stamps.
1t will be remembered that there wa;
quite a contest over the large license tax
imposed on the stamp people there and
that the voice of the court in deciding the
habeas corpus case of Mr.. Beeson was
against the large tax. The store will now
open.
