IN MANY RESPEC#S ANSW ERS DESCRIPTION Of aBcy Who Left His Home in Ken. tucky oa January 9th. diy X _ The following is the desorption of a bry who left his home in Kentucky, on January 9th, and areward of $50 is offered for any information that will Jead to his recoyery. he is 15 years old and large for his age ; about five feet seven inches tall ; large blue gray eyes and brown hair ; weighs 130 pounds; when he left home wore a suit.of black clothes, black storm overcoat and black hat. 'Th's is the decription of H. Pryor McDaneil, said to be the son of John‘ W. McDanell, of Warsaw, Ky, Yesterday afternoon a boy answer- ing the description in many respects was picked up by Chief of Police J. A, Woodall. © There were eceveral things in the boy s appearance that suggested the possibility that he was the boy wanted The same blue gray eyes, the same youthful appearance, identically five feet seveninches high by measure, and his general weight being about 125 or 130 pounds, was enough to be strikingly similar to the boy wanted. Letters to Chief Woodall, of this city, and to Chief Heartt, of Raleigh, gave a description of the boy wanted in Kentucky. He was thought to be somewhere in this section. — The boy here gives his name as John McLawbon, and says he is trom } If be does not live in that county, as he says, he has evident- ly been there or else has got his facts cOnverning people there down ‘pat.” He says lie knows the Sheriff of that county, and he also mentioned the in Kentucky. Pitt county, men there who are well known throughout the State. Some people here who have con- versed with the boy are under the ippression that the boy is from Pitt county, as he says, and that he is not very bright, while some think that the boy is not telling all he knows, and that he has more sense than he would have people believe. The boy says his valise containing his clothes, is in Roxboro, locked up in names of a number of Although the description tallies pretty well with the Kentucky boy, yet there is one thing that does not tally. That is his hair. ‘The hair of the’ McDanell boy 1s said to be brown. The hair ot this one is light colured and very curly. | Chief Woodall telegraphed to John ed had light curiy nair. could not go all the way by telegraph. A telephone line connects the town of Warsaw, Ky., with the outside world, ©. account of the telephone wires being down it has been impossible to get an answer up to the time of this writing, In the meantime the boy is at lib- "| erty to go where ke pleases, as there isno au. hority to hold him unless it shall be proven pene beyond | FLECTOR. | The message | | night and preach in the Baptist church the shadow ota doubt that he is the boy wanted. McLawhorn, as he calls hiriself, is a book agent, and has been going through- out this section, trying to sell books. He says he ean neither read nor write. His parents are dead, he says, and he had to leave home because his guardian d‘d not treat him right. He also says when he becomes 21 there will be fifty thousand dollars coming to him in his own right. Whether he is the same boy as is wanted in Kentucky, we cannot say. Under the zircustances, he should be given the benefit of the doubt.—Dur- ham Sun. — [There is a boy name John McLaw. horn whose home was in Pitt county, and from the description given of him above there is hardly a doubt that he is the Pitt county boy and made a correct statement as to where he 1s from. He used to be seen frequently on the streets of Greexville and was genérally looked upon as not being very bright. a mother now living in this county, In his talk he was always addicted to con- siderable boasting about what he could or was going todo. This claim made in Durham that that he would fall heir to $50,000 upon reaching his majority is all a myth, and is about in keeping with his usuai style of bragging. —Rr- Church Services To-morrow, Methodist church—Sunday-school at 9:30 A.

Mine host McKinley will not ‘serve the regular dessert of official pie until his Congressional boarders have eaten the tariff and currency commission dinners now being prepared for them, a!though ‘a few individuals who have squared things with King Hanna will be at once giyen generous slices of the best pie in the es- tablishment. | Republican Senators and Rep- resentatiyes would like Mr. Mc- Kinley’s plan of making them choose the men who shai) be appointed to office from their states much better if he had not allowed it io become generally known. They are willing enough that the men who get the offices should give them ‘credit for securing them, but they do not hke the idea of having to be held responsible by the unsuccessful applicants. It was a shrewd dodge on the parc of McKinley and ifs eunourceme.t bus already brought about a marked faliing off in the ua nber of office-seekers who seek to push their claims by personally calliuy at the White Bouse. While the eaucus of demveratic Sensiors did not dec.da the matter defivitely, it was plain from the toue of the remarks made that © number of them were opposed to the proposed combi- nation with the silver republicans and populists to reorganize the Seno'e Committees. Some of the shrewdest democrats in the Senaie are ot the opinion that nothing would be yained by suci a com- binaticn, although they are de- termined that the successor of ex- Sepato: Voorhees on the Finance Comwmities shali be a silver dem- Ocral, ia order ‘hat the silver men aball retain their majority on that committees. Seusters Paulkner and Smith have been put on the Gemocratic steering committee in place of Blackburn and Brice, and Gormse, chairmau, and Cockrell, Garris, Waltnall, Jones, of Arkaysas, While and Marphy have been reappointed ss mew- bers of that cominiteae.

It had not, administration would openiy countenance fiilibustering. That would make this country liable for damages. But it was thought that the idea would be conveyed to the officers of the Nayal and cf the Revenue Marine service that their superiors did not expect them to break themselves down bunting for flilibusters. Repub< licans say the Sapreme Court decision in the Three Friends case left the administration no choice. Mr. McKinley has to have the services of a special millitary aid- de-camp, at least he has them, and that duty has been assigned to Capt. Heistand, U.S. A. who by some hocus pocus has been with the McKinley’s at Canton ever since the election. Capt, Heistand’s wife will live at the Kinley’s constant companion. This sort of flapdoodle may be all right in Europe, but it seeme out of place in this country. By a coincidence the last President who had a military aid-de-camp was also an Ohio man—Garfield. Senatcr Harts, of . Tennessee, who has been dangerously iil with the grip, does not expect to He will go to Mississippi next week, if he continues to get better, to remain until he gets entirely well. He will be badly missed by the democrats. About twenty democrats who ought to be snugly ensconsed in Presidedtial postoflices find themselves in a very unpleasant predicament just now. They were nominated and confirmed by the Senate, but, owing to delay in getting their bonds approved by the Post Office department, Mv. Cleveland did not sign their commissions. Jf Mr. McKinley chooses he can sign these com- missions, but it is entirely discretionary with him whether he will do so or nominate republie cans for the places. Pension Commissioner Murphy is authority for the satement that the McKinley inaugural ball cost the the government $70,000 in | salaries paid to employes of the Pension Bureau. . Un Senator Gorman’s motion the credentials of Mr. Wood appointed by the Goyernor of Kentucky to succeed Senator Blacburn, were referred to the committee on elections, and nobody need be sarprised it they @re never heard of again. After lookirg over the ground King Hanna concluded he had enough to do without antagoniz- ing Tom Reed, so there will be no administration candidate for Speaker of tue House. ~ repeats ——* Political Mothers Say, We should never be too busy to mend the bro-en toy, to tie a knot, to kiss away the pain for the little bruis- es and to answer the numberless questions.
