town had stood there for years

to build a shell road and pave their
streets with the shells right at their

further investigation, we found that
we were the only people U that town

there nothing that we can do that

So we watched to see what paper had
tho largest circulation In that town
and we saw that at that lime It was
Raleigh Post. So we wrote that
paper an article advocating a shell
road and paved streets, and it opened
its columns to us. Then they called
us the sea side correspondent to the
Post.

this, those people of that town had
built a shell road and there was one
road leading out of town. In three

streets with shells, and now you can

The editor made a trip up to
Thursday afternoon, and was
both surprised and gratified to see
that town making such rapid strides
along all lines of progress. There
at this time going up In that
town six brick stores, a new bank
building, a tobacco warehouse, a large
cotton seed oil mill, and several
handsome dwelling houses. The new
bank, which makes the second one
there, expects to begin business the
first of August. A large volume
business is done in that town.
About two months ago Mr. H. A.
While began missing money from his
office, the losses varying from
cents to Mr. White became
at the frequency of these loss-
es and set to work to find out the
cause. He engineered o nice bit of
detective work, and while his plans
were a little slow he kept his patience
and was finally rewarded by land-
lug the thief.
A young colored man, Wiley Clark,
has for sonic time been cleaning up
Mr. White's office, going every morn-
to do this work. Being a slick
and observant Wiley had
learned to manipulate the day lock
on office safe . Mr. White began
to suspect this as the one who
was getting the money and went to
work to catch him.
At first It puzzled Mr. White to get
run of the losses, but finally he
mads the discovery that they were
occurring during the dinner hour
when BO one was in the office. There-
upon he engaged one to watch
the office door while he was at din-
and to telephone him Wiley
was seen lo enter the office. In the
meantime some coins were carefully
marked, a record made of them,
the coins placed In a convenient place
in the safe.
And this Is the plan that did work.

On Saturday by mortgaging their
home, the parents of Wiley secured
a bondsman for him and he was re-
leased from prison. As soon as re-
leased he was again arrested under
a warrant for stealing a pistol from
Mr. White. Wiley was again taken
before Justice Harding on this charge
and was held under an additional

convicts be kept to work on roads
now. That each township shall have
its amount of road tax spent

five road directors in each township,
and that the roads and bridges
placed in hands of director-.
That ten cents be levied on every one
hundred dollars worth of real estate,
the value may be fixed for county
and State taxes. That the rate of
