WHITE MAN LOCKED UP.
Kept in Guard House Several Days,
Then Turned Over to North Caro-.
lima.

A stranger sojourned in the New
berry lookup for nearly week un-
til given his transportation papers Sat-
urday.
On last Monday week Police Officer
Tom P. Adams, who is always alert
and active, observed stranger loafng
at the depot station, and from his
movements as watched by the police
man he was apparently trying to hobo
the train. Officer Adams took him to
the police station and locked him up.
Questioned by Chief G. W. Bishop
the man gave several names, among
them Mccoy Wilson, his right name,
by which he was later identified and
turned over to the parties by whom he
was wanted. Chief Bishop wired the
chief of police at Asheville, who in
turn wired back to wire the deputy
sheriff at Old Fort, N. C. The Old
Fort official Immediately instructed
the Newberry chief to hold Mccoy Will
son and an officer would be sent for
him. Wilson had acknowledged his
name to Chief Bishop and the chief
had found stolen goods on his person.
After waiting about two days longer
for the Old Fort officer to come to
Newberry, Chief Bishop wired the
authorities that if an officer was not
forthcoming the prisoner would be
forthwith released. Then the sheriff
of Marion county got busy and some
thing was done. The officer arrived
Saturday for his man, who was wanted
for check forgery. The North Caro-
lima officer paid expenses and Wilson
was carried back.
The Marion county officer says the
young man is if good family, his
grandfather being worth $4,000, the
prisoner remarking that he would
sleep in his grandmother's bed.
While the prisoner was detained
here the chief had got baggage
check off his person from restaurant
in Savannah. Chief Bishop sent the
check to the chief of police of Savan-
nah and the Savannah chief forward
ed Wilson's baggage, valise, to New
berry, to be delivered to Wilson by
Chief Bishop, the Marion county sher-
if paying all express charges.
This was a we'll worked up case.
The trained eye of Officer Adams saw
what was unobserved by others and
led him to arrest a man that turned
out to be wanted in North Carolina for
check forgery.

FIRE DRILL TEST.
Boundary Street Graded School Clear.
ed Of Children in Less Than q
Minute.

The efficiency of the fire drills which
have been practiced in the city schools
was shown by a test on Friday at noon
which was gratifying to those in
charge. Without previous warning to
the children, the city fire alarm was
sounded and the city's fire department
was rushed to the Boundary street
graded school. AS soon as the depart
ment reached the school grounds the
fire alarm was given to the children,
and the building was entirely cleared
in from thirty-dve to forty seconds.
Superintendent H. L. Dean of the
school had invited several citizens to
witness the test.
The children came out in fine for
nation, and held their lines on the
grounds, marching back into the
building without having broken ranks.
The whole drill was free from any
evidences of threatened stampede as
if the children had been coming out
for recess.
The fire department made fine time
to the school grounds, and within a
very few minutes after the wildcat
whistle had sounded the children had
marched out of the building and were
back at their studies.

THE SESSIONS COURT.
Judge Wilson is Presiding
able Amount of Business to be
Disposed OF.

The fall term Of the general ses-
sions court convened on Monday
morning, at 10 o'clock, Judge John S.
Wilson, of Manning, presiding, and
Solicitor Cooper on hand at his post
Of duty. There is a comparatively
heavy docket, and it is likely that it
will take the entire week to dispose
of the business.
Solicitor Cooper handed out a num-
Der of bills of Indictment, and the
grand jury was charged by Judge Will
son. Judge Wilson stated that he
would not go at length into the
grand jury's general duties, as they
had already been charged twice this
year along this line, but explained
clearly the vaBious crimes charged in
the Indictment.
The case against H. H. Evans was
continued on motion of the State, on
account of the absence of the attorney
general, who it was announced would
be engaged today in the Merger" case
in Columbia. Mr. E. S. Blease, rep
resenting the defendant, demanded a
trial, saying that the defendant had
demanded trial at the last term, and
wanted trial.
The cases represented by Governor
elect Cole. L. Blease were continued
on account of Mr.. Blease's physica!
condition. Mr.. Blease announced that
he could not represent these cases
after he was sworn in as governor, but
that without some time for prepara-
ticn on the part of other attorneys ne
cid not think it would be fair to his
clients to force them 10 trial at this
term. Mr.. Blease had hoped to be
able to handle these cases this week,
but was forbidden by his physician.
Pleaded Guilty.
Ed Walker pleaded guilty to al in
dictment charging him with larceny
from the person, and was sentenced
to serve fifteen months.
