Probably the Same Faker.

We publish on the first page of he
GOLD LEAF this week an account of
an alleged fortune being left to man
in Durham by n so-called rich uncle
in San Francisco. The whole thing
strikes us as a fake and we advise our
Durham friends not to take it serious
ly. We say this because the story
bears the ear marks of one that was
sprung in Henderson IA few months
ago. =
In this paper Of May 10th was pub
lished a similar story to the effect
that an employe in the Henderson
Cotton Mills, calling himself Harry
X. Hays, claiming to be a native of
Wisconsin, but coming here from
Pennsylvania, had received letter
from the probate Judge, stating that
Hays uncle had died in San Francis
co leaving an estate valued at $1S,-
667 900, and that he was one of four
heirs. Hays claimed that he had
visited his uncle at his home and
knew he was very rich, stating in
part of what the estate consisted.
The letter from the alleged probate
Judge was typewriter on plain paper
without letter head Or official seal.
This did not look straight and the
editor OF this paper refused to be sat-
isfied with its genuineness. But there
were those who took the matter Sc
riOusly-so seriously in fact that they
did not hesitate to make loans to
Hays on the strength of his claims
to future great wealth, in sums of
from IS, 90 up to $2O.OO-several of
them, we are told-and soon after
ward Hays left for parts unknown.
If he has been heard from since or
any OF the persons who made him
loans have seen the color of their
money we have not been so advised.
The man in Durham calls himself
James A. Corbitt. The account saws
he has been working there about
three months. Hays left here about
the middle of May. Is Corbitt in
Durham the man who was Hays in
Henderson? And is he playing the
same game there to fake the gullible
that he did here? 1t looks that way
to us. At any rate it would be well
not to put too much faith in the
heir-to-millions claim of this fellow
without a better showing of proof.
The chances are that if he has sue.

tens he has shaken the dust of Dur
ham from his feet by this time-or

subjects who are easily separated
from their cash.

Awarded First Prize.
Paper Of Mrs. H. c. Cooner Of Roa-
noke Rapids, Which was Award
ed First Prize in the treason
Contest Of the Home Telephone
and Telegraph Company.

Below We reproduce Mrs H.C. Coop
er's Reasons Why Every Residence
Should Have q Telephone.
This paper was awarded First Prize
in the Reason Contest" OF the Home
Telephone and Telegraph Company:
The reasons why every home should
have telephone may be arranged under
three heads, viz: Business, Economic and
Social.
1. Frequently business matters Of the
day involving large sums of money are
not closed before the close OF Office hours
in which event the head of the house can
be reached from any distant point and
the matter adjusted before the opening
Of another day.
2. 1t is often important that the head
of the house take an early morning train
to meet an engagement, and in the
smaller towns the telegraph Offices close
early, and the telephone is the only
method OF quick communication.
B. For the buying or selling OF stocks,
bonds and securities definite orders can
be given with more detail and dispatch
by telephone than otherwise.
ECONOMIC.
l. Should one of the family happen to
an accident or be suddenly taken ill, the
| physician can be Immediately reached by
telephone.
2. The household shopping and mar
keting can be done successfully by tele-
phone, saving time and worry.
3. If one is preparing for a journey or
| expecting friends by rail, the telephone
gives you the arrival and departure of all
| trains
SOCIAL.
| 1. 1t is more satisfactory when Civ
ing dinner, card-party or other enter
tainment, to invite your friends by
phone and find out Immediately if it il
their pleasure to attend upon the evening
suggested.
| 2. A few words of choice gossip, or
neighborhood news to your very best
friend over the phone helps one SO much
to get through the day.
3. We can visit" our friends at dis
tance over the telephone.

Of the contest twice adding & lone one

the second or at least it passed for
double because of PennelPs slow re-
turn. The genial Dutchman trotted

Hetling was certainly the candy KID

double, a triple and a nome run. In

bought him meal ticket. In Topeka
it brought a few rounds of applause
from the fair ladies' day fans and the

FITz A SURF HERO.
Rescues a Woman From the Ocean at
Coney Island.


New York, Sept. 5.-Robert Fftzsim-
mons is hero. Not In the prize ring,
animal arena, nor on the stage this time
but really, truly hero in the waters
OF the ocean.
For some reason best known to him
self he was sitting on the beach at
Coney Island at 2:30 o'clock yesterday
morning, when the figure of a woman
in white fitted past him, and there was
splash in the water. Fitz went over to
investigate.
Whats up?" he asked Of the strug-
Cling figure in the water.
Please, sir, I wish to die. Kindly
continue on your way and leave a poor
girl to drown
Not while there is strength in these
arms to save her" nobly replied F'itz
and he Waded into the water and pulled
the very wet young woman out. Then
bearing the slight figure in his arms,
he went in search of a policeman and
found JohnstoWn Humphreys a large
policeman who keeps his uniforms
speckless. F'itz deposited his damp
burden in the protesting policeman's
arms and disappeared.
AS the policeman had not seen the
young woman's attempt to drown her
eslfs he made a charge Of intoxicatiOn
against her. Yesterday morning in
ton, a. telephone operator, and that she
lived with her parents at No. 393 Car

she had taken a few drinkss but said
that she did not know it was so late,
and thought she had better drown her
self than 90 home. She was permitted
to go under suspended sentence

THERE IS INCREASED DANGER.
Opinion Of Experts on the New Foot
ball Rules Given.

Ann sArbor, Mich, Sept. 5.2There was
quite noted gathering of football ceIe-
prlries on Ferry Field recently. It con-
sisted or Hurry Up Yost, Dan" Nc
Gugin, King" Cole. willie Heston,
shorty, Longman, Keene Fitzpatrick,
the waterman gymnasium; Manager
Bard Whltmore, the Ypilanti halfback,
and enough others to make up an eleven
TO interpret the new rules in living pic
lures. They were all in the lineup.
Inc forward pass was tried most of
the time, and this revolutionary rule, it
was shown5 makes the game more open
and more complicated.
Ihe liability of injuries is increased
instead OF lessened, according to DR..
May. The new rule makes open play,
but man in running forward to get
a pass obliged to look back over his
shoulder, Is unable to see what is ahead
of him and protect himself. He can be
easily hurt in q hard tackle.
Gee Whiz!" said Willie Heston af-
ter sizing up the new plays, q a wreck
IN every play. I'll tell you what you'll
have to do, Keene. You will have to
train a squad on how to carry stretch
ers.ss
II don't know just how the new
rules will work out" said Coach Yost,
but I think as the season advances
there will be strong defense worked up
around the man receiving the forward
pass Scoring Is going to be a matter
of great luck
Neither King Cole or Ian" Nc
Gugin appeared to be great admirers
or the new rules, but were trying to
make the best of them, and the con-
ference started q foundation for each
coach to work upon. It was rather a
mutual benefit association meeting, and
each had valuable suggestion to offer
the others.
