The simple home ceremony was

time and has many friends who

LOCAL PAPER MILLS
THREATENED
Petition Carried 10 legislature to Pre-
vent Discharging Spent Liquids
from Paper Mills into
Roanoke River
WILL Be FOUGHT TO FINISH

A petition to the legislature
for a law to prevent the discharge
of spent liquids from the Halifax
Paper Corporations plant into
Roanoke River has been circulat-
ed in Northampton county,
Roanoke Rapids, and elsewhere.
and a bill to this effect
was presented t h G legislature
on last Tuesday morning
by Representative Joyner, of
Northampton county. The petit

Roanoke Rapids by Mr.. w. b.
Fitzhugh, and we understand
that abent seventy five signat-
lures were secured here, a good

dong so under a misunderstand-
ing as to its purpose and scope.
and without knowledge that it
would materially iniure the
Halifax Paper Corporation.
Several citizens of Roanoke
Rapids who signed the petition
without knowing its real purpose,
have since wired the legislature
asking that their names be re-
moved from same as they are
opposed to doing anything what
ever to injure the Halifax Paper
Corporation. At a special meet
ing of the Board of Town Com
mlssloners of Roanoke Rapids. a
set of resolutions condemning the
petition were unanimously adopt
ed and a copyGf same forwarded
lmmediatelyto the Halifax county
representatives at Raleigh.
The measure, which is ill-con-
sidered and unfair, will, of
course be fought to a finish by
the Halifax Paper Corporation,
aided by many citizens of this
community, and, in fact, from
all over the State. The produc-
tlon of paper in the United States
IS now 50 tar behind the demand
that the price is from Is to 800
percent above normal, and it is
hardly probable that the legisla-
ture will care to pass legislation
which would probably so increase
the cost of production at the
mills as to render them
lnao.e to continue operations.

PAUL WHITFIELD
MYSTERIOUS BURGLAR
in Last Of Many
Entrances to Residence Of
". P. Taylor Yet Makes
Desperate Escape
THIEF STILL AT LARGE

The'mysterious burglar whose
multitudinous depredations have
baffled officers and terrorized the
housewives of the community
has been discovered at last to be
no other than Paul Whitfield,
erstwhile town loafer and gam
bier. For several months com.
plants of burglaries have been
almost constant from one source
or another; in every instance,
so far as we know the burglaries
having been committed during
the absences of the owners.
This fact alone caused the be-
lief that the thief was a resident
of Roanoke Rapids, thoroughly
familiar with the habits of the
people he burglarized, although
Whitfield was not under direct
suspicion until he was discovered
by Mr.. John Harris, who rooms
at W. P. Taylor's, in the act of
fitting keys in the lock of Mrs.
Taylor's bedroom door, on last
Sunday night.
Hearing the noise of Whitfeld's
entrance, Mr.. Harris who was
alone in the house at the time,
crept downstairs and covered the
thief with his revolver, recognized
him and said Put 'em up Red.
Red" elevated both paws forth
with, exclaiming Don't shoot
me, Harris, for Gods sake,
then, although still covered,
Whitfield backed to the door and
dashed for liberty. Mr.. Harris
shot three times at the fleeing
figure, scoring three clean misses,
if the speed of the fugitive be
taken as an indication.
From last accounts, he was
still going. In spite of the utmost
vigilance on the part of Chief
Baird and many assistants no
clue has been discovered as to
the whereabouts of Whitfield.
An exhaustive search of Whit
fields belongings failed to turn
up any evidence of past depre-
dations.
Whitfield has wife and small
child here. His mother and
brother who live here are well
thought of by all who know them,
and the criminal tendencies of
this young man are greatly re-
GREETED by them.
A peculiar incident about the
entire affair is that Mr.. Taylor's
residence seems to have possess
ed a great fascination for Whit
field. Although other residents
Of Roanoke Rapids were honored
with his attentions at odd times,
made visit after visit
to Mr.. Taylor's, probably on
account of the fact that Mrs. |
Taylor spends many evenings at
Roanoke Pharmacy with Mr..
Taylor while he is on duty there,
leaving the house entirely vacant.
