TUCKER & EBWIK. rioted Smitntown Character to be Given Preliminary Hearing in Greens-bore Saturday. Jim Smith, Smitntown blockader and alleged murderer, is in the For-syth county jail in Winston-Salem awaiting a preliminary hearing in Greensboro Saturday ou the charge of the murder of Deputy Collector J. W. Hendrix on the night of December 290th. Smith was arrested in Madison Friday afternoon by Deputy Sheriff H. T. Pratt and brought to Greensboro Saturday morning and delivered into the hands, of United States Marshal Miliikau. The arrest was made on the strength of indictments in the United States court charging Smith with illicit distilling, and the prisoner came to Greensboro prepared to give bond in the sum of$6,000, When his bond had been arranged, Smith was immediately arrested ou an indictment sworn out before United States Commissioner Wolfe charging him with a conspiracy to kill Deputy Collector Hendrix. He was committed to jail without bond to await bis preliminary hearing. Owing to the fact that two of the prisoner's brothers and several other Smithtown blockaders are confined iu Gullford jail, it was deemed advisable to send Smith to Winston-Salem to prevent him from coming in contact with his brothers and friends from Smithtown. Smith has retained ex-Judge W. P. Bynum, Jr., of this city, and Mr. C. O. Mi-Michael, of Madison, as counsel. It is significant that the reward of $1,000 offered by the government for the capture of Smith will not be paid until the matter shall have been passed on favorably by the Department of JtiBti-e. This is taken to mt.au that there is a xuspiciou in the miuds of the government officers that the capture ot Smith was a prearranged affair in or-der that the reward money might be divided between the prisoner and others. - •. Mr. T. Glenn Rot In Politics. Mr. Tyre Glenn, cashier of the Home Savings Bank, whose name is men-tioned in an artk'e reprinted iu this is-sue from the Washington Post, informs the PATRIOT that he gave out no inter-view iu Washington and knew nothing wbatever of the story until be read It in the Post. He did not deny the truthfulness of any statement contain-ed in the ttory, but was positive in as-serting that his visit to Washington had nothing to do with politics. **I was returning home from a business trip aud merely stopped off in Wash-ington ou a visit," said Mr. Glenn. "So far as I recall, the only person with whom I talked politics at all Was a Democratic congressman, and of course I could not have discussed with him the details of any fight in the Republi-can ranks. No, I am uot In politics this year aud do uot expect to take any part in auy fight for or against any faction. I am busy attending to my own private business affairs and am content to let the other fellows manage the political game. I've Md enough of it." Mrs. A. G. Wood Dead. Mrs. A. G. Wood, of Detroit, Mich., died Sunday night at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mra. H. H. Halladay, in this city. Mrs. Wood came to Greensboro several weeks ago on a visit and soon after her arrival suffered an attack of la grippe, which later de-veloped into, pneumonia, this being the cause of her death. The funeral was held from the home of Mr. and Mrs. Halladay this morning at 10 o'clock aud the remains interred in Greene Hill cemetery. Rev. Dr. 8. B. Tnrrcutiue aud Rev. Dr. G. H. Det-wiler ouducted the services. Mrs. Wood is survived by her hus-band, to whom she was married two years ago; a father aud mother, a sister aud a brother. Colored Attorney Arrested for Embezzle-ment. Deputy Sheriffs John Weatberly and "Bud" Shaw made an important ar-rest late Monday afternoon, when they placed the heavy baud of the law upon Martin L. NewbyT a colored lawyer, whs has resided in Greensboro for about a year. Newby was arrested on a warrant sent from Salisbury charg-ing him with embezzlement. Before coming to Greensboro, it appears that Newby worked some sort of Insurance graft on a portion of the colored popu-lation of Salisbury. The prisoner was carried to Salisbury yesterday after-noon by an officer from that place. When arrested, Newby protested vigorously against being locked up like a common felon, saying he reared it would injure his reputation and stand-ing in ths community, but the logic of his reasoning failed to appeal to Depu-ties Weatberly and Shaw. Report of Water and Lhjnt commission. Ths report of ths Greensboro water and light commission, as filed with the board of aldermen, shows that, during the quarter ending February 1, the total expenditures amounted to $6,274 11. The principal items making up this amount are: Expenses of city station and filter plant, $1,638.58; Reedy Fork station, $1,149.97; office expenses, $1,288.55; building house at reservoir for engineer, $1,259 85. The balance on hand Januury 1, was $947.60. The cost of maintaining both plants for the quarter was $4,592 05, and $1,592.18 was spent for permanent improvement. It is further shown by the report that there is due the commission the follow-ing amounts Water rents due for quarter eQdiug January 1, $4,150 31; water rents In arrears, $5,682.68; water rents due by meters to special consum-ers, $3,567.02. An Arrest Hade Under Difficulties. Albert Pool, a white man, wanted in Rockingham county for eloping with another man's wife was arrested In Greensboro Sunday, and yesterday was carried to Weutworsh and lodged in jail. Pool had deserted the woman with whom he had eloped aud was liv-ing in Greensboro with bis lawful wife. The arrest was made by Deputy Sher-iffs Weatberly and Shaw, who found Pool locked in a closet at his home. The officers broke Into tbe house and then forced open the door of the closet iu which Pool was concealed. While engaged in making tbe arrest, Mrs. Pool attacked the officers with a rolling-plH, aud when disarmed of this weapon, renewed the attack with a hatpin. WAHTED TO ESCAPe. Frazier Jones Only Awaited Opportunity —His Relig-lon Bian't "Take." Since Frazier Jones, whose death sentence was commuted to life impris-onment, has been carried to Raleigh and placed safely within'* the grim, strong walls of the state peuiteutiary, it Is learned that tbe prisoner had re-solved, before leaving Gullford jail, to make a desperate attempt to escape while en route. That be abandoned the idea is dne to the fact that be was so" securely manacled and bound by Deputy Sheriff John Weatberly, upon whom the duty devolved of conveying the prisoner to the penitentiary. After reaching the state prison, Frazier con-fessed to Mr. Weatherly that he bad resolv ed to make a desperate effort to escape until be found himself bound hard and fust. Tbe prisoner was carried away from Greensboro ou a night train and every precaution of safety was taken by the officers. A rumor bad reached Greens-boro to tbe effect that a portion of the colored population about Gibsonville was so incensed over tbe failure of tbe law to execute Frazier tbat an effort might be made to take tbe prisoner from tbe train at that place aud wreak summary vengeance upon him. Of course the officers paid little •attention to the rumor, but nevertheless It was considered wise to be prepared for any-thing that might happen. When Deputy Sheriff Weatberly in-formed Frazier of the rumor, the pris-oner replied to this effect. "If you'll just give me one of your guus, we'll kill the first negro that tries to enter tbe car." From the pris-oner's language, it is evident that tbe religion he professed on tbe eve of what was supposed to have been his execution failed to "take." AMERICAN EXCHANGE BANK CAPITAL, $300,000.

Recently tbe PATRIOT has beard complaints from many good citizens of the county over the fact tbat no pro-vision is made for keeping Guilford'a macadamized roads in repair. The rains and freezes have damaged ths roads badly, and there is a general de-sire on the part of the people living along tbe improved highways that the county officials take Immediate steps to repair the damage. Tbe Tabernacle road, one of tbe best constructed high-ways in tbe county, is said to be wash-ing badly. Tbe county commissioners will prob-ably take some action looking to tbe organization of a force to keep up re-pairs ou tbe roads. Mr. Justice a Prababie Candidate Mr. C. H. Ireland, of tbe Odell Hard-ware Company, has written a «om-munication to tbe Charlotte Observer strongly endorsing Mr. E. J. Justice for tbe Democratic nomination for attorney-geueral of North Carolina. In reply to tbe direct question as to whether or not he would be a candi-date for tbe nomination, Mr. Justice informed the PATRIOT that he had not arrived at any definite conclusion, but Intimated tbat he was giving the mat-ter serious consideration. A great many people believe Mr. Justice will stand for the nomination. Death of Aged Lady. Mrs. Susan A. Freeman died Sunday night at the home of her son, Mr. R. A. Freeman, on Arlington street. She was 60 years of age and had been ill for a long lime. She is survived by twe sons, four brothers and a sister. One ■on, Mr. Robertson Freeman, resides in Texas.
