FAIRMONT COPS
LOOK FOR
FENCE
Think Two Youths Arrested
Here for Burglary Are
Professionals.

FAlItMONT. June l7-Although
Worthy l.anham. one Of the young
men arrested IN ClarksburE on
burglary charge. when speaking OF
his Jimmy Valentine pToClivities. in
sinuatcs that he is kleptomaniaC. the
general opinion about the court
house is that Lanhnm Is profess
siona! thief. he having admitted that
he entered the room OF William
Bailey AZ the Roush house and took
from stand In the room n watch
and chain and S7i in cash The
warrant charging Lanham and Mer-
rill with robbery states that the
amount of money found missing was
$73. He told Thomas Buckley. jail
er, that Benjamin Merrill, who is
also In jail. was not with his when
he robbed Bailey. He claims that
Merrill waited on the corner OF
Washington and Madison streets.
What became OF the money is not
known, The watch was taken to
Clarksburg and sold. Two other
watches which he admits stealing
from railroad man were also sold in
ClarksbuTg. One OF the razors which
were found on I.anham when he was
arrested bears the name OF +. X.
Davis and Company. OF Clarkshurg.
h. Il. Davis and Company have a
hardware store. The other razor is
not marked
The opera glasses which Lanham
at first said he bought are old ones
and in such condition that even
secondhand store would not handle
them. They are of French ivory
cylinders with gold trimmings
Besides the raZors and opera
glasses Lanham wore a ladies' silver
and gold watch with very fine ivory
and gold Fraternal Order OF Eagles
fob. The fob is OF such superior
quality compared with the watch
that the officers have been led to be-
lieve that watch and fob were taken
at different places.
The greatest puzzle which the au-
thorities have to solve is whore the
fence for the stolen goods is. Lam
ham claims that he buried his wares
in the Merrill back ward Ncr"ill
don't know what became Of tho
stuff" a search in Mcrrill's yard re-
vealed nothing.
This makes Lanham's fourth time
in the Marion county jail. On two
other occasions he served time for
stealing bicycles The fourth occa-
sion he went up for sixty days for
stealing twenty-five caliber rifle
from the Marion Hardware Company
on Main street. During this term he
hanged to escape from the road gang
and was recapturcd and forced to
serve additional time.
One oftensc which Lanham admits
and for which he was not prosecuted
was the lifting OF revolver from a
drawer in the desk OF Thomas
Buckley. iailcr. Buckley refused to
prosecute on conditions that the gun
was returned.

Bachelors

What is leap-year doing to cut
duwn the supply of eligible
bacheloro? Ten years ago it was
said that the proportion of bach
elors to married men was in
creasing tremendously, and the
large number of barhelor apart
ments going up in the cities
were held out as proof. 1t may
be that the rural districts and
the small towns have found the
secret Of love $ success, which is
being overlooked in the cities.
Maybe the city man is so busy
| lodging the cars and the conf
/ derce men that the love god
hasn't a chance to take aim at
him. Nevertheless it is q fact
that the small town in once more
acknowledged the hope of the
nation. The fact that leap year
comes once every now and then
is the sole balm to the city.
When the year arrives when
man no lonper proposes but is
proposed to the crop of maldens
dWin3les somewhat, and it is up
TO the economists to find a way
to even things up to make the
women go more In one year than
the man can go in three. Its a
nice little problem, and we sug-
gest, as a possible solution, more
visits to the country where the
air isn't made up of smoke, gas
oline fumes, the smell of orange
peels and the roasting Of coffee,
and where the sun comes down
through leafy covers instead of
fighting to get through the
smoke stacks and skyscrapers of
the city streets. Love is always
ON the job. All he wants is a
chance and a couple of prospects.

In the meantime council Is con-

WORRIES LEADING

Winston Salem, N. O.,

More Tobacco Products
Than Any Other City
in the World.

Following are extracts from
an address delivered by Col. A.
D. Watts, Collector of Internal
Revenue for the Fifth District of
North Caroline, at a smoker
given by The Twin City Club,
Winston-Salem, February 4th,
1916:
Some Comparisons
winston Salem is supplying
one-fourth of all the chewing
and smoking tobacco consumed
in the United States, besides eX-
porting vast quantities to for
eign lands. This statement is
taken from the report OF the
Commissioner Of Internal Reven-
ue for the first quarter of the
present fiscal year and from pri-
vate advices from Washington,
as to the second quarter, which
ended Dec ember plst, last.
"Your city is making one-sev-
enth of all tobacco products
chewing and smoking tobacco,
cigars, cigarettes and snuff
manufactured in the United
States. Your manufacturers are
paying on an average about
$500 a day revenue taxes to
the government and the amount
is increasing from month TO
month. When your government
beilding, much the handsomest
in the State, was completed last
July at a cost of $3.50, 600 your
newspapers made the statement
that the taxes paid in your city
to Uncle Sam for the first eight
days of its occupancy would pay
for it. Since September, it has
taken only fraction over seven
average days collections here to
equal its cost. So far this week.
