Jail Breaker Captured.

Monday afternoon Police Off
Ger Ferrell captured Albert Crab
tree, a young white boy, who
was badly wanted by the Orange
county officials. Crabtree is a
Durham youth, but during the
Christmas holidays he left this
city and went to Hillsboro where
he and Arkis Thompson, a boy
about the age of Crabtree broke,
into a store and stole some mon
ey and a number of other articles.
They skipped out from Hills
boro but were soon captured in
Graham and turned over to the
officials of Orange county. They
were given a preliminary hear
ing and sent to Jail in default OF
a 5000 bond each. About two
weeks ago these two boys and
two other prisoners made their
escape from the Hillsboro pris-
on. and drifted down to this city,
where Thompson was soon ap-
pretended and turned over to
the officers. Crabtree succeed
ed in keeping his whereabouts
unknown uutil Monday afternoon
when he became bolder in his
movements and as a consequence
is now in Hillsboro Jail again,
where he vii. no doubt, remain
until the next term of superior
court at that place. There is
one other prisoner, a negro, yet
at large. but the officials feel
confident that he. will soon be
back in the tolls, Crabtree'S
mother resides in this city near
the car barn and il was at her
home where the capture was
made.

BASE BALL PROSPECTS.
Several CiilzanS Interest Themselves
In Durham'S Behalf.

In the Elks hall Monday there
was a meeting of the baseball
men of Durham to discuss the
proposition to bring Durham into
the Eastern Carolina league.
Mr.. C. H. Gattis, of the Sea-
board, was here speaking Il r
Raleigh. That city has raised
the necessary amount to get into
the league. There are eight
towns in the state that want
teams and the selection must te
made from them, but there are
only six that can play. Those
towns are Durham, Raleigh,
Kinston, New Bern, Rocky
Mount, Washington, Wilson and
Tarboro.
At the meeting Monday Mr.. R.
l.. Lindsey presided and Mr.. W.
F. Carr was secretary. Messrs.
Claiborne Carr, w. G. Bran
ham, and S. II. Reams were
made a soliciting committee and
the canvass in the hall resulted
within five minutes in raising
$500 for the purpose Of maintain
ing the team.
To go into the league will re-
Quire 81, 800.
The purpose is to raise the
money by small amounts. There
will be no bleeding and every
amount is welcome.
In order to make the game a
go, the city will have to secure
the Trinity grounds as this is the
only place where baseball is ac.
cessible at all to the car line.
1t is understood that several
parties at the college do not fav-
or the athletic grounds of that
place being used on account of
the damage the large crowds
would do to the campus lawns.

Chief Police Killed.

Fayetteville, Feb. %. For the
second time within a year Fay
etteville's chief of police has
been murdered. James H. Ben
ton, the head of the police de-
partment of the city, was shot
about 1:30 o'clock this afternoon
Dy Sam Murchison, a negro 30
years old, anddied at 2::45 clock,
living little more than an hour.
The murderer was captured a
short time after the shooting
occurred and is now safely
lodged in Jail here.
The circumstances of the mur-
der are aggravated and without
palliatiou. 1t seems that the
nurdererHs, 'Murchison. had trol-
ole earlier in the day with John
ilaines, another negro, and Ida
Moore, a negro woman, which
resulted in his shooting Raines,
inficting slight flesh wound,
and his threatening the life of
the Moore woman. The woman,
who lives in the neighborhood of
Chief of Police Benton's home,
fled to the latter for protection,
making an outcry as she ran.
Chief Benton met her at his back
door, and hearing her complaint,
was starting out in search of
Murchison when the latter ap-
peared on the scene. He and
Officer Benton exchanged a few
words, when the negro suddenly
drew a revolver and fired at Mr..
Benton, inficting amortal wound
just under the eye. Officer Ben
ton staggered and attempted to
make his way back into the
mouse, but fell before he reached
the door.
Jack Crosswell a lad, hearing
he pistol shot. ran up at once
and.attempted to arrest the mur-
ierer but the latter snapped his
pistol at the boy and broke away.
Mr.. J. B. Underwood next ap-
peared and the negro fled, firing
. wild shot at Mr.. Underwood as
.le ran. Charles Benton, the IT.
tear-old son Of the wounded man,
ran to his fathers assistance a.
,e fe.I and caught up the latter's
revolver as it dropped from his
belt. As the negro fled the youth
fired three shots after him, one
of them taking effect, as develop
ed after the capture was made,
Officers Benton was carried int,
his residence. suffering great
agony. and fingered for a little
more than an hour. passing'away |
about the time his murdcrc" was
being placed under arrest.

JOHNSON TO

SAVIOR OF DEMOCRACY.

WASHINGTON, December l1.-That
Governor johnson will be taken up
by very influential element of the
democratic party for president, is now
generally conceded in Washington,
even by the personal friends of Bryan.
If overtures and efforts which will soon
be under way to make Governor John
son the nominee meet with success, a
formidable and forcible Johnson organ
ization, will be seen by March I. His
visit to Washington and his all around
popular qualities made the Minnesota
governor the talk of the hour. Columns
have been written about him in Eastern
papers, and some of the writer's have
perhaps overdone the printing Of praise
for the governor.
He is compared to Abraham Lincoln
