Public Meeting
Was a Failure

The meeting called for Thurs
day night last at 8 o'clock at the
court house, for the purpose of
discussing the town ordinance
proposition, was somewhat of a
failure. Only a few responded
to the call and it was not worth
while to proceed under the cir
cumstances.
We cannot understand why
more interest is not manifested
in this proposition by the pro-
perty owners. 1t is certainly one
of the most important that the
public will have to deal with for
some time. The correct start
was made and the necessary ac-
ton taken by the commissioners.
This is not sufficient; some of the
provisions should be made appli-
cable. There is absolute need of
some regulations in sanitary, fire
and police lines. 1t is we'll that
the public should give some idea
of what they want. Are we
going to tolerate some of the con-
ditions that exist? If not, we
should make it known now.
And while it is true that the com.
missioners have the power to
pass or reject any of the ordi-
nances, they in all instances are
pleased 20 know the will of the
people; but if the people haven't
sufficient interest in the matter
to at least attend a public meet
ing, then they have themselves
alone to blame if conditions do
not suit them.
Another effort will be made to
hold a meeting this evening
and it is earnestly hoped that
all will make an extra effort
to attend. Some of the leading
citizens are taking the matter up
and will try and see that all have
notice of the meeting. There
are many points of Importance
to be discussed, and when the
opportunity is afforded the pub
lie of expressing their views,
they should by all means avail
themselves of the same. Re-
member the meeting is called for
8 o'clock. p. M, in the Chamber
of Commerce rooms in the
Thompson Building.

~ThomaSville, N. c.. Dec. 14.-Friday
afternoon a warrant was sent here
from G~reenville. S. c., for the arrest
of Mr.. Carb Stout. a young man whose
home is about seven miles south of
this place for the murder of a negro
who was mysteriously killed near
G~reenville a few days ago. The cir
cumstanceS are as follows: Stout was
running on a freight train between
Charlotte n Greenville, learning the
rOad before accepting a regular posi-
ton, when his train reached Green
vile. he not having had breakfast,
went to a nearby restaurant; when he
came pack to the train the caboose
had been broker into and his suitcase
had been stolen, the case contained
his clothes. letters and other things.
When the dead negro was found some
days after the suitcase had been stolen
the suitcase was found near the dead
negro; this was all the evidence
against Stout. When Stout reached
Charlotte, the terminus of his run he
came to Townsville to spend a few
days with his parents and to get some
clothes as the ones he had. had been
stolen and it was while at home the
warrant came for his arrest. stout
was carried to Spencer this morning,
where ne will get witnesses to go with
him to the preliminary hearing. He
surrendered himself to the officers and
will go to Greenville Without papers
being issued for him. Hon A. F. Sans.

SHOPLIFTERS CAUGHT
Assignee'S sale at Sherwood Higgs and
Company's Lands Thieves. :.

The sale of the stock of Sherwood
Higgs & Co. under the control of Mr.
w. III. Pace, the assignee, kept a big
crowd in the store all day Saturday.
There vas a big rush and there were
not enough clerks to care for the
crowd. AS a result the shoppers seek
ing bargains crowded everywhere, be-
hind counters and into boxes, turning
things tCpsy-turyy. This was a chance
for shop lifters and the results showed
that some of these got in the light fin
gered work.
One young white woman was seen
by a clerk to cram a s22.50 trimmed
hat in a bag and make off with It.
The u salesWoman followed and
caught the shoplifter on Hargett
street, bringing her back to the store.
Once inside the woman dropped her
package as she was being led to the
office, and then emphatically declared
she had paid for everything she had
with her. She was let go with a repri-
mand.
The proof was SO convincing that
shop lifting was going in by the whole
sale thai Assignee Pace, who is under
ono to the court for the goods, found
it necessary to employ detectives, n
these in citizens clothes were in the
store in the afternoon and at night
Numbers of shop filters, negroes, were
stopped ir. their career and two were
arrested, a man with a pair of shoes
and g woman with some cOrSetb Ihey
are in the lookup for trial Monday.
1t was seen by Mr.. Pace that it was
absolutely necessary to protect the
goods from thieves by having detec-
tives, and he viii have these on hand
this week, and also take the precaution
of letting in the crowd only every fiji
teen minutes so as to be able to keep
a look OUT for those who would steal
goods.
