Otis TAYLOR Safe In jail.

Sheriff Dickinson arrived here early
Saturday morning from Buneombe
county, y. c., having in his custody
Otis Taylor, who is charged with the
murder of Cecilia Banks. As related
in these columns, on the night Of
January 18th, 1907, Taylor wantonly
shot and MORALLY wounded the de-
fenseless woman at her home, near
Sanco. this county. He Immediately
escaped and was not definitely heard
from until his arrest last week in North
Carolina.
Although Otis Taylor stoutly denies
having shot the woman, though there
were several eye witnesses, to
the tragedy. 1t is reported that be-
cause of n scold given him by the wo-
man for having mistreated her small
boy, Taylor first knocked her down
with chair. and as she arose from the
floor he shot her. After staggering aud
falling, it is alleged that Taylor walk
Ell to her PROSTATE form and sent
another bullet through her body. The
woman fingered in great agony for sew
eral days when she died. Upon the
testimony Of witnesses who saw the
shooting. the grand jury indicted lay
Tor at the March term of court. Fin
ally he yentured TO write letter to one
of his women friends near the scene OF
the murder, and it was the postmark
ON this letter which led to his appre-
/ hensiOn and arrest.
In jail here he denies having shot
the woman, declaring that the first ne
knew Of Cecilia Banks being dead waf
a short time back when letter from
here conveyed the intelligence.
Otis Taylor is negro apparently q
wears old, and has most unsavory re-
putation, having a number OF times
been arrested by the police Of Farm
Vile for drunkenness and disorderly
conduct. He will be brought to tria
foi murder at the November term o
Prince Edward court.

Dear Sir Here's tale with a point
to it. Florida is the hardest state IN the
Union for paint.
Gilmore * Davis Co., Tallahassee,
Florida, think they know what paint
can do in their climate; they've been
painting for 35 years, Deyoe ten years
their words are: buildings we paint
ed Devoe 10 years ago are in good con-
dition Of paint today"
They also say lead-and-Oil wears only
one year there; Deyoe 10 years!
Ten years is a long lifetime for paint
in Florida; longer than 20 in Maine.
We don't dare say that either is true
as general fact i'm those States; but
there are such instances.
five should call the cost Of DeyOe
i'm Florida half Of the usual cost OF
paint, il would be too much; we sup
pose it's about one-third there Is so
much trash there-the cOstliest paint
is the worst, and the worst is the cost
Hest everywhere.
