CENSUS TO Be TAKEN.
1t Is to Include Prisons. AsyIums and
Charitable Institutions.

New York, March 5.-For the sec
ond time since the passage Of the new
immigration law in 1903, details of
immigration inspectors have started
out to take a census of the prisons,
insane asylums, reformatories and
charitable institutions of the country
to collect statistics relating to the
number of aliens in these institutions
and those who have become public
charges. The order directing the de-
tails came from Frank P. Sargent,
commissioner general of immigration
and yesterday the men assigned to
the duty left Ellis island.
In official circles it is admitted that
future immigration legislation of a
radical character may result from the
reports brought in by these investf-
gators. The sending of investigators,
it is said. is the first step in the war

Dor will wage against anarchists and

Mr.. GREEYER ACCEPTS new POSITION
Will Become Professor Of English In
Arkansas University.

Garland Greever, who has held
the chair of English in the city
schools for the last two years
has resigned that position to ac-
cept a similar one as associate
professor of English in the Ark
ansas University and will not
return to Durham next fall.
This news will surprise many
of his friends as did his marriage
in June to his schoolmate sweet
heart. Since the wedding they
have taken an extended tour and
next fall he will enter upon his
new work in the University. Mr..
Greever is well equipped for
holding this position, having
been very successful in his work
in the city schools here. He is
a born master of English and has
an exceptional ability for both
writing and speaking it, as we'll
as the teaching qualification.
D.; Besides performing his usual
work Mr.. Greeverhas just become
an author. He has completed
his first literayr effort along that
line and now has ready for the
publishers, a book to which he
has given the title American
Poets". This book will be issued
this fall and the contract has been
turned over to Messrs. Scott
Foresman and Company, a most
reputable publishing company of
Chicago. Illinois. The volume
is adapted chiefly for use in the
schools and will no doubt to ex-
tensively used as a text book
among the various schools of our
country. As well as giving Mr..
Greever some fame as an author
this volume has furnished him a
neat compensation.
Mr.. Greever is a graduate of
Central University, of Missouri.
and while in school at that place
won quite a reputation as an
English student. He has devoted
himself amost entirely to that
subject since his graduation, in
which he has attained well nigh
perfection. 1t is with much
regret that we learn of his de-
parture from the city but wish to
him the greatest amount of sue
cess possible in his newly chosen
field of labor.

Trains between Salisbury ant
Asheville and others going that
way on Sunday were considerably
delayed, because of the complete
turning over Of six freight cars
just outside Of the Greensboro
yard. These cars blocked three
tracks, so that passing was made
impossible.
Although the monetary damage
was heavy, no one was hurt.
The trouble seems to have been

coming into a side-wipe with an

Thomas Harvard, Of East Durham,
Takes a Dose Of Laudanum.
WAS SAVED BY DOCTOR 6. Il. ROSS
Had Been Drinking Much Poison Is
Pumped from Him Against His
Own Protest No Cause
Assigned for Deed.

On Saturday afternoon at about
2 o'clock, there was an effort
made in East Durham. by a man,
to end his life which came very
near being fatal. 1t was then
that Thomas Harvard, a man
fifty or more years of age, drank
dose of laudanum and was only
saved by quick work of DR..
George H. Ross. ...
There does not seem to be any
cause attached to the rash deed
whatever. Mr.. Harvard al
ways appeared to take life some
what cheerfully and has seldom
ever been heard to complain. He
had been drinking pretty heavily
of late and this caused him TO
get the blues" rather badly.
1t was on Saturday morning that
he was noticed by several to be-
unusually blue and moody, and
in the afternoon he purchase,
about an ounce of laudanum.
On reaching his home with the
poisonous stuff the old gentleman
made a hasty effort to drown all
his troubles but when taking the
last draught, he was discovered
in the act BY his son, who immed-
lately sommoned a physician.
DR.. Ross reached the home
place upon short notice. just as
the old man was beginning to feel
1.-THE effects Of the drug. Mr..
Harvard pleaded with the doctor
to let him alone saying Let me
alone, do you know what | am
doing. but Dr'Ross assured him
| that it was no time to talk on
that subject, and applying the
pump brought the poison from
his we'll burnt stomach. This
relieved the old gentleman and
he is resting as well as could be
Expected.
1t was a close call and Mr.. Har-
ward will possibly be mighty
|gIad when he RECEIVERS fully that
| the doctor didn't let him alone.
His mind is said to have been
mentally unbalanced and this
will get alright in a short while.
Mr. Harvard once stood quite
well in this county and belongs
70 good family of people.

ROBBERY SUNDAY MORNING
Burglars Enter House Of Mr.. S. R.
Perry and Garry Away S6S.5O.
THREE GENTLEMEN lose HEAVILY.
Room Occupied by Three Gentlemen
Was Entered and Pants Rifled Of
All Money Other VaIu.
ableS Not Touched.

A very daring and bold burg
larry was committed on McMan-
men street early Sunday morning,
when the home of Mrs. S. R.
Perry was entered, and $68.50
stolen. The room entered was
on the second floor, it being oc-
cupied by three boarders, Messrs.
John S. Carr, superintendent of
the Carolina Roller Mills, H. D.
Morris and w. E. Baker. These
gentlemen usually occupy two
rooms, but on Saturday all
three men slept in the same room.
The robbery must have occurred
some time after 2 o'clock, for one
of the gentlemen was awake at
about that time, and had not been
asleep. 1t was not until the in
mates of the house awoke on
Sunday morning that the robbery
was discovered. The pants of
the three men robbed were found
in pile in the hallway, and up-
on investigation, it was found
that all money had been taken
out of the pockets, but that none
of their watches or other jewelry
had been touched. 1t is evident
that the thief was professional
at the work, and he did not de-
sire to imperil himself by taking
away anything but the cash.
Of the total amount, S6S.50,
Mr.. Baker lost S49., Mr.. Morris
S16.50, and Mr.. Carr 81. The
news rapidly spread over the
neighborhood, and since then
people in that section have been
very careful to see that every
thing is securely locked up before
they retire. The burglar or burg
lars seemed to have no desire to
carry off other valuables, and
did not rob any of the other oc-
cupants of the house.
1t was altogether a profession
al piece of work, and showed
that the robber thoroughly knew
his business. Neither of the
gentlemen heard a single sound
during the night. The burglar
entered the house by the front
door, the door being open and a
screen door closed, which was un-
fastened. Thinking hat he
would possibly have to be in a
hurry when getting out of the
house, the burglar had propped
this door open. and in leaving he
to close it.
There is as yet no clue to the
guilty party, bat it is thought by
the police that two men are in
volved in the act, one being on
the outside and another on the
inside of the house. However,
rs that may be, the robber or
perhaps robbers were certainly
well up in their line of work, and
everything possible is being done
