Daily Dispatch Bureau,
In the Sir Walter Hotel.

Raleigh, Aug. 1O.-A Gale K. Bur
CESS statement, as quoted by Senator
l.. A. Martin of Davidson, seems to
have sounded the death knell of any
possible liquor fight in the 1889 Gen
eral Assembly.
Adoption of the gag" rule over
Martins vigorous protest gave the
coup de grace to any possibility the
perennial struggle might be revived
at the extra session, even though the
Lexington man had no intention of in
Producing any prohibition bill even
without the gag.
Martin said "Cale Burgess told me
that the vets will have even more
of a margin in the next legislature. .
Inasmuch as the control forces won
with three votes to spare in the 1887
Senate, that seems to put the clincher
on the wet-dry matter for the next
two years, as far as general statewide
legislation goes; but it does not mean
that the fight is over or that the con-
trollers can sit back from now on and
take it easy.
The Drys are undoubtedly hearten-
ed by the result in Catawba, where

Burgess knew just what was coming

fore the Catawba vote the United Dry

the Drys of Catawba was over-con-
fidence. 'We've got them licked thor
oughly,'' he said.
1t follows that with Burgess clear

hibiting the sale of wine and beer

to find himself committed to hos
pital by the court. He eventually was
released.
Family Prominent
McCluer, member of a well-known
Beaufort County family and Wash
ington's former fire chief, killed a
close friend, Arch Doughty, last May
in Washington. Admittedly addicted
to excessive use of a headache nos
trum, McCluer claimed he was "dop-
ed' at the time and remembered moth
ing of the shooting. No motive was
advanced by the State and jury &C
quilted him of second degree murder
charges.
However, Judge Walter Bone subse-
quently ordered an inquiry into Nc
Cluer'S mental condition, with the re-
suit that the former fire chief was
committed to Dix Hills criminal in
sane ward as dangerous to himself
and others. Judge Bone followed the
statute in holding the inquisition on
McCluers sanity.
Upon his admittance July O. Nc
Cluer was examined by doctors at the
hospital and DR.. Julian Ashby super
intendent said yesterday the Wash
ington man was found to be sane
Recently, McCluer's wife made de-
mands for his release, but a decision
was postponed by DR.. Ashby.
Sets Precedent
It's the first case of it's kind to
come up here as far as I recall" said
the superintendent. Frankly, I'm
puzzled as to what to do. McCluer
is not insane, yet it appears we must
hold him under Judge Bones order.
i But if he's sane, there is nothing we
can do for him here. To striaghten
this out I intend to call on the At
torney General for decision"
McCluer, if RELEASED from the hos
pital, could not be placed on trial
again, as he already has been freed
of the criminal charge.
Judge Bone last night said that,
while he had not had an opportunity
to inquire into the procedure, he be-
ilieved the statute provided that such
prisoners be held until the Governor
gave permission for their release.
This probably would come on re-
commentator of hospital authorities,
he indicated.

MAI, COOPER GIVES
INFANTRY HISTORY
Prepares Article on History
of Guard Unit for Army
Navy BOOK

Major James G. Cooper, of the 10th
North Carolina Infantry, has just
completed a breif history of that or
ganization for publication. The article
is being carried in a book being pub
lished by the Army & Navy Publish
ing Company on the National Guard
of North Carolina.
All regiments in the organization
are included in the publication, and
pictures of each unit and it's roster
are included. Major Cooper said he
obtained much of the data in his ar
ticle from the office of Adjutant-Gen-
eral J. Van B. Nets, in Raleigh.
Major Cooper goes back to the for
nation of the 10th Infantry for war
service in 1917-1918, and shows how
it was formed from the first, second,
third and fourth North, Carolina In
fantry. He traces the activities of the
Guardsmen on the Mexican border
and through the World War.
There was a reorganization after
the war in 1919 as the First North
Carolina Infantry, but in 1921 it was
given the original World War desig-
nation of the 10th Infantry.
The organizations stay and ex-
periences in training camps in this
country prior to going over seas in
1918 are recounted in Major Cooper's
article, which, though comparatively
brief. is inclusive of the distinguished
service of the unit over a long period
of years.

It was dark, Mr.. Claiborne could
rot see the bill any too well until he
reached the inside of the station. The
Negro quickly drove off towards tho
city. Mr.. Claiborne stepped to his
telephone, notified the Sheriffs office,
and Deputy E. A. Cottrell was quickly
ON the case. The Negro was picked
up at the intersection of the Raleigh
road and the Oxford highway bypass,
and Mr.. Claiborne was called to iden-
tify the Negro in less than one hour

The remodeling of the court room
on the second floor was the first
to be done when the project was be-
gun early in 1888. That required sew
eral months, and went through two
terms of superior court.
Most of the cost is coming from
WPA funds, matched by a small
amount furnished by the county. How
much the entire project comes to is
not known generally. No formal an
nouncement has ever been made as to
what the amount of the money is.
