Hegress Charged With Entering
Residence 0 Mr. 4. 7. Lamb.
The OYense Wy g..sci, She Is Charg-
ed Is q Capital One-Got into the
House by Entering q Window-Pre-
liminary Trial Took Pdace Before
Justice Frulong Yesterday After
noon-Woman Was Serving SEN
tence at the Workhouse and Got
Away the Night the Crime Was
Committed.

Kate Fisher, a notorious negress who
has served many term at either the
county work house or before it
was established in the Jail, was given
a preliminary trial yes e-day afternoon
before Justice Furlong :. Jon the charge
Of burglary. She wac bound over to
the higher court and united to Jail
without bond
The Fisher woman entered the res
idence Of Mr. AT Lamb, who lives
near the county home, on the night Of
October 23rd and was caught while In
the house. She was carried by Mr.
Lamb to the residence Of Justice OF the
Peace Herbert Johnson and they car
ried her to the county workhouse
where she was placed in cell to await
trial
The preliminary hearing was before
Justice Furlong and was heard at the
county workhouse yesterday afternoon.
The Fisher woman made no denial OF
having entered the nooss but said she
was only looking for 6. place to s'eep.
According to her story Il man helped
her to get into the wsa,ow Of the house
and told her she could spend the night
there. Mr. and Mrs Lamb were in the
house at the time and when they found
the woman in the house she was in the
act Of taking off her shoes and was in
the hall She made no resistance
whatever and it required no force to
get her to the residence Of Mr.. John
son.
Kate Fisher had only few days be-
fore been sentenced to term in the
county workhouse and she got away
the night she entered the residence OF
Mr. Lamb. It was thought best on
account of the nature Of the case to
place the woman in Jail instead Of al
lowing her to remain at the work
house until the time for her trial which
will be the latter part Of next January
She IS a desperate character. The OF
tense is a capital one and the evidence
against the woman is conclusive.

THE NEW HANOVER JAIL
Judge Purnell has come &C. the con-
clusion from statements made by diff
ferent prisoners eoafned In the New
Hanover Jail, that it is a disgrace 10
the community and he did not fail
to express himself in regard to the
matter yesterday. He declared ffat
from all reports the New Hanover Jail
was worse than the black hole OF Cal
cutta and n disgrace to civilized COM
munity. He especially referred to the
food furnished and said when the gov
eminent was paying for it that whole
some food had to be furnished. The
matter he stated, had been referred 10
the United States attorney general and
that If there was a law to reach the
offending party or parties that they
would be made to suffer. Judge Pur-
nell declared that he did not want TO
give any prisoner undue punishment
and therefore he would sentence no
one else to the New Hanover jail and
that he regretted very much that
prisoners awaiting trial have to remain
in the Jail. Cumberland's Jail, he, said,
was but little II any better and about
the only advantage it had was that in
Cumberland the pr:::soners Ionld get out
occasionally,
AS wae stated in yesterdays paper,
a nuu,-Der OF improvements are to be
maze in the jail and the commission .
crs have been very desirOus for some
months past to have work done, but It
has taken considerable time to get IN
the bids and everything in readiness
for having the work done. When the
repairs are made the jail will be al
most equal 70 new Jail, and will be
in a far better sanitary condition than

FIELDS IS STILL MISSING
Man Who Fell From One of the Fish
ing Steamers Tuesday and Was
Drowned it Is Thought Was Proba-
bly, Him.

Walter Fields, the young white man
who mysteriously disappeared on Mon
day night, has not yet been located
and it seems almost certain that he
was drowned. From what can be
learned q young man who answers the
general description Of the missing man
spent the night in J. G. Holley's res
taurant which is not far from the
market house. A young man fell
from one of the fishing boats on last
Tuesday morning about fifteen miles
down the river and was drowned and
it is thought very probable that it
was Fields. None Of the men on the
boat knew the man and the descrlp-
ton Of him has lead friends of Fields
to believe that it was him. telegram
was received from Mr.. Taylor Fields,
father Of the young man, yesterday
morning wanting to know if his son
had been found.

Local sportsmen are 'ety much
opposed to hunters co4Iing in from other
states and killing out the game. Quite
a number of laws have been made in
regard to this during the past few
years and a nonresident hunter has
to pay tax of $40 and it makes no
difference if he hunts for only one day
he is liable if he does not hand over
the amount of the tax. Formerly there
was no limit to the number OF part
ridges that could be shipped out OF
the state and now it is against the law
to send out birds but any one holding
a hunters license can carry out of the
state fifty partridges during a season
Each day that nonresident hunter
fails to get license constitutes a sepa-

REPUBLICAN PLATFORM

''The Republicans of the Ninth Con-
gressional district of Virginia, in con-
vention assembled at Marion, Va, on
the Goth day of June, 1906, make the
following declarations:
"First. We declare our unalterable
devotion to and confidence in the prin-
ciples and policies of the national Re-
publican party as heretofore set forth
in its platforms and exemplifed by the
splendid administrations of William Nc
Kinley and Theodore Roosevelt. And
we hereby express our admiration for
the devotion to duty and supreme pa
triOtism which have inspired President
Roosevelt in his efforts to elevate
American citizenship and uphold the
rights of the people.
Second. We endorse the record and
work of our representative in Congress,
the Hon. Campbell Slemp, and assert
without fear of successful contradiction
that no more faithful and efficient rep
resentative has ever represented the
people Of this district in the national
House of Representatives. And should
it be the will of this convention that he
again carry the flag of the party in this
district, we pledge him our united sup
port and promise him triumphant VIC
tory at the November election.
''Third. We believe in a priceless
ballot, and so believing, most heartily
condemn the detestable, partisan suf-
frage and registration laws that have
been treacherously fastened upon the
people of Virginia by the Virginia De-
mocracy. By the adoption and applica-
ton of the poll-tax qualification, both
as prerequisite to registration and vot-
ing, and by so-called educational quail
ification for registration many thousands
of worthy citizens in this district and
throughout the State have been de-
prived of the most sacred of rights
the right to vote-and are forced to
bear heavy share of the burdens of
taxation without being allowed to have
any share in representation. The Re-
publicans in this district hereby declare
that they will not cease to condemn and
contest these iniquitous suffrage laws
until non-partisan and priceless ballot
is again restored to the people.
Fourth. We appeal to the people of
the Ninth Congressional district, with
out regard to former party affiliations,
to unite with US and elect as our repre-
sentative in Congress a man who en-
dorses and stands with the financial and
economic policies that have been and
are now developing the mineral, agri-
cultural and other resources of our sec
ton of Virginia, that have brought
prosperity and happiness to all classes
of our people, and that have made us,
not only the greatest producing, but
the greatest consuming nation of the
world.
Fifth. We condemn the action of
the last Democratic Legislature Of Vir-
ginia for taking from the people of this
State the right to elect their commits
sioners of revenue.
"Sixth. We heartily endorse the &C
ton of our State chairman and State
committee in their untiring efforts To
redeem the State from Democratic mis-
rule; and for the high plane on which
they conducted the last Republican CUB
ernatorial campaign"
