SWINDLING GAME
 IS MOST UNIQUE

Charlotte N. C.. October 25.-A unique swindling game, far reaching in opera tion and involving prominent diamond importers, was laid bare here today when J. W. Napier and w. P. Duke were arrested on warrants sworn out by United States Postoffice Inspector Bula of Washington and bound over by United States Commissioner Cobb for the fed era court
 Duke collapsed following the arrests, turned states evidence and unfolded the operations of the gang to the commis- sioner without restraint. Briefly the scheme was to order diamonds from a responsible firm. collect on delivery sub ject to examination, substitute limitations for the real and return the shipments to the importers with some fimsy excuse as to flaws Tn the stone.
 The gang operated successfully in Rock Hill, s. C., Branchville, s. C., Westville, Charlotte and other neighboring towns and cities, using James Harris, an un- sophisticated country boy, as a decoy. The imitation stones were supplied by a house in Terre Haute, Ind.
 Harris, whom the swindlers used as a tool, is an innocent country boy who can
 neither read nor write. He was dis charged by Commissioner Cobb while
 Duke and Napier were held in bonds of $2500 each. f v Duke made full confession of the af- fair. The only victim of the pair dis closed in the preliminary examination
 was Daniel Lowe & Co, Salem, Mass.

 The group of songs composed by Madame Honer's husband made a fine hit. Some of them were touched with dramatic fire and all of them were tune ful. What gave local interest to the pro- gramme was the fact that the words of one of them, Uncle Rome I changed my name when I got free To Mister like de res; But now dat I am goin' Home, like de ol' name bes' was by the late Miss Howard Weeden, the gifted Alabama poet.
 Madame Homer's first encore song was one of her gems-"My Heart at Thy Sweet Voice." from Samson and Deli l lah." Another encore piece was 'The Banjo," words by Miss Weeden and music by MT. Homer; and after the closing number-the splendid song from the "Huguenots'-the audience remained seated and Madame Homer responded by singing "Old Black Joe"
 Mrs. Lapham's piano numbers were
 greatly enjoyed. This lady came unhear-

 As the audience was leaving the thea tre words of high praise were skopen for the Music Study club.

There was no such contrast in the decade 1890 to 1900, during which the in- crease of the smaller cities in the aggre- gate was 3S.2 per cent and the larger 32. .21 per cent. iNa.

ginning to feel impatient and wish the
big event could be held at an earlier
date. Kennels all over this section are
filed with dogs being groomed in an
effort to capture the ribbons, and on all
sides success of the exhibit Is assured.
Jim Jeffries promises to make as high

in the squared circle. jeff has entered
but one dog, his Jeffries Jeff, an Aire-
dale OF rare merit, and with him the
former champion hopes to carry off the

opposition, however, and Henry Keller

tive, Joe, will be the favored one when
the awards are made.
What is expected to be one of the
best exhibits in the hall is the entry
made by Katie and Crandall of four
parti-colored Cocker spaniels, which,
when the show rolls around, will have
attained the age Of months. The
quartet come of good stock and point

they may give q good account of them

many days, the enrolment with Mrs.
