SUITS SUDDEN END
FAYETTEVILLE Water Works
Case is Out of
Court.

Several days ago Judge Purnell re-
ceived letter from the water works
company of Fayetteville, stating that
the city and the company were about
to compromise the case of the city of
Fayetteville VS.. the water works COM
pany, and asking him not to sign a
decree.
Last night it was announced that
the long fought case had reached d
sudden termination.
The company settles on Judge Pur-
nell's decision less the attorneys fees
giving a security for the payment of
the costs and will discontinue the APP
peal to the circuit court. The city
has paid over to the bank of Fayette-
vile to Garwood Ferries, President OF
the company, twenty-four thousand
dollars, being the award of seventy
nine thousand dollars less the out
standing bonds which the city as
sumes. The aldermen, and especially
the water committee and the attor-
neys of Fayetteville are receiving con-
gratulations on work most faithfully
performed. The company yesterday
turned over its whole property, and
the city is now in full ownership and
possession of it's own water works as
we'll as its electric lights.

A BOY CRIMINAL B
Brought to Pen to Serve
Eight Year Term for
Murder.

Arthur Freeman of Madison Coun-
ty, a boy scarcely fifteen years of age,
and a sufferer with tuberculosis, has
been placed in the penitentiary to
serve an eight year sentence for muir
der. The deputy sheriff who brought
the lad criminal to Raleigh, has not
yet been to the State Auditors office
to secure his pay for transportation
and other expenses incident upon his
trip. Freeman was convicted a few
days ago of murder in the second de-
gree in Madison court.
me trial of this case was remark
able. Freeman was tried for the kill
ing of Cliff Morrow, in Madison cOun-
ty. The facts in the case showed con-
clusively that Morrow was killed in
cold blood, and the private prosecution
invited that the boy be tried for muir
der in the first degree. But the So
licitor. on account of the extreme
yOuthfulness of defendant refused to
agree to a first degree trial and Free
man was convicted of murder in the
second degree. Judge Mcneil, the
trial judge, took the same view of the
case as did the solicitor In passing
sentence the Judge gave Freeman
eight years in the penitentiary, the
being thirty.
the facts are unusually interesting,
and are as follows:
The killing of Morrow was as cold
biooded a murder as was ever COM
mitted in Madison county. Young
Freeman admitted after the killing
that the crime was committed in cold
BLOOD that he had murder in his heart
and that while apparently on friendly
terms with Morrow, he stole a pistol
I, l.; O.
facts showed that Freeman and Nor
row were neighbors: that Freeman
accused Morrow of killing some of his
which was denied. Later
Morrow and Freeman were at the
home of a young man named Rice.
The three lads went to a room in the
Rice home, where a bicycle was kept
and, taking the wheel from the place,
spent a time in amusing themselves.
In the room in which the wheel was
kept was a revolver and when the
boys returned the bicycle Freeman
stole the pistol and placed it in his
pocket Afterwards he said he Secur-
ed the weapon for the purpose If
killing Morrow. While the three
young men were walking on the road
after having ridden the wheel and
after returning to the room in which |
it was stored, with Morrow in the |
lead young freeman again SAID some |
thing about Morrow killing turkeys |
Morrow without turning around, de- |
MED that he had killed any turkeys |
Freeman drew the reVOl- !
YER and fired twice at Morrow, both |
bullets taking effect in the victims !
back Morrow fell and died in a |
short time. The two bullets struck |
Morrow in almost the same spot max |
Ing but one hole in the coat worn !
by the murdered lad and two holes |
close together in the back. Freeman |
md Morrow were both members of |
prominent families of Madison.

Bakerfield, Cal, Dec. 26--Charles
+. Ehler, on a cot in the county hos
pital. suffering from a wound pre-

flew days ago Powers wrote from
Kentucky to Ehler, saying:
IL see by a press dispatch that
you may be an important witness in
the Goebel murder. For six years
| have lain in prison and three times
| have been sentenced to death for
a crime of which | am as innocent as
the angels around the throne. If
you have any information that will
throw light on the death of Gov.
Goebel then for Gods sake declare
yourself and aid in proving my in
nocence."
Ehler admitted that he CO uld give
testimony that might save the life of
Powers, and he intimated that if the
ex-Secretary's execution was immi-
nent he would give such testimony.
