around hts waist at night. while on
rainy or idle days and Sunday this
chain IL taken down from his waist
and q large iron bar that runs clear
across the building in front Of their
hunks Is run through the ring at the
end. Hence he has only four feet Of
space to walk and stand In while IN
camp.
The writer attended police court at
Concord, N. c., one morning and three
men were lined UP before the court,
two white and one black. for violation
OF laws as follows: One for using pro-
fame language, the other for beating
his wife; the colored man for carry
ing concealed weapons. On being ar
ranged each one was called up before
the court and sworn In by kissing the
Bible. No. l, John. you are accused
OF using profane language at the de-
pot yesterday. I guess F am guilty
your honor. The decision Of this court
Is you be sentenced three months on
the chain gang to work the roads.
No. called up. Jack you are ac-
cused OF beating your wife yesterday.
What have you to say Of yourself
We'll me and my wife had some words
and ] struck her" The decision in this
case as above.
No. Is called UP. Bill you are ac-
cused Of carrying concealed weapons
on your person. What have you to
say. Well in some way while STOPPING
over yesterday my revolver dropped
out Of my pocket. The decision Of this
court is you serve twelve months on
the chain gang.
Nine Months For Riding Mans
Horss.
The writer say q young fellow sem
fenced for nine months In Arson
county for riding another mans horse
al ound the public square. When they
get to the roads they are put to work
from sunrise to sunset. It is very In
teresttng to see them work. Some
with a pick, some with a shovel They
have guard at each end Of the gang,
who carries a shot gin. Each fellow
is compelled to do the same amount of
work: They 80 right through
a hill the same as rail-
road. When they get it down to q
level they dig out place fourteen
inches deep and eight feet wide in the
center Of the road. This Is flied In
with crushed stone and pitch until
It COMES up to the level surface or a
on the ground; also the pitch is pre-
pared there. While filling UP the space
1t IL filled up with four Inch layers
each layer is rolled over by a large
cast iron roller and made solid. This
rock for the purpose IL secured by the
farmers along the road who are given
fifty cents yard for hauling and gath
ering the same. What IL meant by
the yard Is pile Of rock three feet
high and three feet sQlare every way
Hence It Is not question as to what
a horse will pull in this county. but
a question as to what the wagon will
hold up.
The writer saw one of the gangs eat
dinner at noon. They were all lined
up on the side Of the road, a pan
knife and fork given each man with
his allowance. for the meal in it. After
eating his pan was put in a large box
near by and left fol-. the next meal
On being questioned about the
foreman pointed to a white man, said
that fellow has worked for me Ave
times. On pointing to q colored man
said that fellow has worked for me
three times. On the question Of length
Of term he said it ranged from thirty
