TUESDAY NIGHTS Storm.

AS a natural answer to the III

of many preceding days, it came
on to rain in torrents Tuesday
night about $50 o'clock and for
some two hours there
was the most brilliant electrical
display, with the hardest down.
pour of rain, that has been seen
in this neck of the woods in
many moons, perhaps in sever
years. The electric light plant
went out of business for more
than an hour and during that
time and longer bright sheet
lightning played almost inces-
sanity, and between flashes
darkness dense and palpable set
tied down over the town. It has
been said recently that the old
time thuuder storm hasaboutgone
out of business, but on Tuesday
night the elements certainly got
down to their knitting and pull
led off a storm that was no
slouch. 1t was magnificent and
it brought temporary relief from
the intense heat-which, by the
way, is back on the job again |
right.

who had been evading the OIL

brought TO Lumberton Tuesday

together with her uncle, Wesley

\. c. James, Arrested in VIII
m;ngton Monday, Not One of
Sheriff McNeiII's Deputies

Know all men bv these pres
ents that Sheriff E. C. McNeill
wants it distinctly understood
that the man A. G. James, who
figuredin a story in Tuesdays
Wilmington Star and who repre-
sented himself as a deputy sheriff
from Pembroke, is no deputy of
his and has no authority from
him. According to The Stars
story, James blew into Whining
ton on the negro excursion Mon
day and was supposed to be on
the train in the capacity of a spec
ial officer to keep order. 1t seems
that shortly after arriving in VII
mington hegotloadedonth the oldfa-
miliar juice and went out fer to
take a walk. Bye and by--ormaybe
in less time than that-he met
one Dennis Murphy, of color, who
has his local habitation in Viii
mington. James told Dennis to
approach and said that he knew
him, had heard of him before,
and then, without more ado, he
whips out his pistol and flashes
in the astonished and very much
frightened negro's face. Pres
emily a Wilmington policeman
appeared upon the scene and
placed James under arrest, which
proceedings James did not fancy
at all and he used some orna-
mental language in letting the
other officer know about it; but
there was nothing doing: James
had to go along with the officer
and he spent the night in the
calaboose. Tuesday morning he
was released on a bond of $50.
1t is understood that James is
town constable at Pembroke. And
Sheriff McNeiil issues this his
proclamation: Know all men
by these presents that he is no
officer of mine".
