NEGRO IS CAUGHT
WHILE STEALING
Brought to Lockup on Friday
by Magistrate R. B.
Nichols.
GIVES HIS NAME
* AS HENRY TAYLOR
Tries Old Subterfuge of Trying*
to Make Out He Borried
Property.
A negro by the name o{ Henry
Taylor was brought into Conway
on Friday morning by Magistrate II.
B. Nichols. He was lodged in the
county jail under a warrant whicti
Mr. Nichols swore out before Magis- j
trate Chestunt. charging the negro I
with larceny of a set of harness, and
the attempted larceny of a buggy.
The crime was committed the night
before, under peculiar circumstances.
The property taken belonged to Mr.
Nichols personally. About 7 o'clock
Thursday night while Mr. Nichols
was reading a newspaper inside the
hou?e, his daughter stepped out on
the front porch and called him.

negro wan was approaching, and
when asked wha4 he wantead, ho
said he would like to borrow Mi.
Nichols' buggy. The latter went out
into the yard with the negro nd discovered
that the negro already had
his harness on a mule and had
turned Mr. Nichols' buggy around
in readdiness for hitching up. It
appears tha-t when the daughter
stepped out on the front porch, although
she did not see the ne?rvo
who was about to make ( ff with thrt
buggy and harness, the negro
thougth she had seen him. and he
came up near the porch and asked
her if her father was at home. Ft
was then she called her father out.
Mr. Nichols arrested the negro
himself and guarded him until the
following morning when lie brought
him to town. The negro gave his
name as Henry Taylor and said that
the mule lie was driving belonged
to Sidney Brazier at Rowland, North
Carolina, and that lie, the negro,
lived on a farm nea?* Brazier. Ho
is a strange negro and none of the
authorities have heanl of him he
fore, and they fully believe that the
mule has been seolen from some
farmer in the Gallivants Ferry section.
Whiskey still
is captured
With a Juqfull of Monkov Rum
Recently Made With
the Outfit.
Rural Policeman King carried ou4
a read in Simpson Creek Township
last week, assisted by John Rogers,
rrvnqtpble, and nerhaps others. They
had been watching the farm of a
man by the name of Hughes, whe
wan suspected of having a still in a
tobacco barn.
It seems that the officers had suspected
this place for some time, and
when the still was discovered it
showed sit^s of having been used in
running off a charge. Not only the
?<til) was taken, but finally the still
worm was found where it had beer
hiden off in a thicket. After the
officers had been thorugh the barr
they turned their atteation to th?
house in order to try to find the
Ikruid evidence of the running of th.frtJll.
The officers stated that be
fore they could get into the hous?'
a 'small girl had taken a jug of
"monkey rum" out of tho back door
and hid it in a patch of cane. They
followed up this sign .and got the
"monkey rum." On last Thursdav
Hughes was brought in by King, and
defendant made bond for his appearance
at the next term of the court
for trial.

PRESCOTT HOME
Magnolia Prescott Complains
to Officers While Husband
in Jail.
KNOCK ON DOOR,
AND TEASE MULE
Says That One of Parties May
Be Near Relation of
Family.
Charles ProscoU was admitted t>l
bail 'r. ;t Wednesday alter an application
had been made by his attorney
before Frank H. Gary in Florence,
.S. C. A telegram was sen!
here early in the morning1 to the
effect that his bond had been fixed
at $1,000.
Magnolia Prescott, the wife of
Charles Prescott, lived in the small
house along with her several small
children from the time Prescott wa<
lodged in the county jail on Saturday,
October 8, up to the time that
h? was admitted to hail. According
to a pitiful story told by her to
several people in Conway, a crowd
of boys made her life miserable almost
every night from the time her
husband left the home with the officers.
Last week's issue gave an account
in full of the inquest and the
testimony given by five or six witnessed
who knew all there is to
know about the unfortunate affair
when Prescott shot Fulton Davis, resulting
in Davis' death, and two of
he shots hit Alec Bourne in the
hand.
The same trouble which was im
posed upon this poor old man and
his family was not stopepd with the
wounding of Davis. There was an
interval of about a week while Davis
was lingering. Even then this house
was not free from molestation. According
to stories told by Prescott acrowd
went back along the road in
front of his fence and dared him
out on several nights, asking him if
he did not want to do some more
shooting.
It would seem to any reasonable
nerson that with the removal of
Prescott to the county pail the miscreants
who have been engarred in
this conduct would have left his
poor wife and little children in
neace. To the contrary his wife has;
been around Conway several days
complaining of the annoyance around
her house almost nightly. Last
Wednesday she said that a crowd
had come to the place and knorkod
on her door, teased the mule which
she drives. wlveh was stcvbled in ?
stall nearby, and made noises and
talked snd kept her awake the entiro
night.
She again applied to the authorities
for assistance and they nromised
to give her aid and it is hoped
that thev have done so.

Tiros are really wonderful pieces of
work. It Is remarkable that they
stand up as well as they do when
you consider the car weight, speed
and rough roads encountered. Yet
the average driver is apt to say that
tires make him tired?especially after

should realize their good qualities and
not think they should stand any
amount of abuse and still give maximum
service. Having learned this
proper respect, the next thing Is a
proper care through their lengthened
career.
To keep down the cost per mile
there are some things the owner must
do. The manufacturers of most tires
issue a pamphlet telling how the tire
Is made and how to take care of it.
CJet it and read carefully and follow
the advice given.
Look After Small Cuts.
Iiuf. despite your care, there will ho
cuts In the ruhher trend. Go over the
tires regularly once a week or oftener
and look for these cuts. Small ones
should be sealed with cement before
they get big. Larger cuts may need
the putty-like repair material to be
had of the 'supply dealer or may need
vulcanizing. Hut it should be attended
to at once. Water will get Into
the fabric and it rots in amazingly
short time, and then vulcanizing does
no good, for the strength of the fabric
Is gone. Sand works iit as well as
water and makes "blisters" alongside
the tread.
Pressure on tires should be kept

not by guessing, but by gauge,
and the reserve tire must be tested
tbe snme as those in use. A oar systematically
overloaded will wear out
tires faster; procure oversize tires to
correct tills evil.
Grease softens rubber. Keep the
tires free.
Fast driving beats tbe tires, with
faster wear, besides magnifying tbe
bumps and giving a side swing which
grinds the tires over tbe road.
If the front wheels are out of
alignment it also grinds off the
tread.
A harsh clutch does the same thing
In starting abruptly, and brakes applied
too rapidly also slide the
wheels.
Brakes unevenly adjusted fcause
one tire to slide and grind.
Whirling around corners sometimes
makes all four tires Hllde, even when
there Is no bad skid.
Here Is a Good Tip.
Oil a wet day avoid roads where
crushed stone has been newly applied.
Rubber workers in all tbe vulcanizing
shops wet the knives with which they
cut the rubber. Wet stones witli
sharp corners slice a tire like a
knife.
Inner tnhes puncture, but may b
patched easily with the handy klta
sold In tire stores, ?nd there ar?
handy vulcanising outfits for large*
cuts which may be carried In the car,
Blowouts should he tnken to the vulcanlzer.
N'ew methods enable th
expert to do wonders with tubes
ysed to throw awoy.
The manufacturer tries to show yoa
how to save tire cost, and along wltli
tills the fellow who follows his advice
generally has less road troubles wltli
tires than he who neglects them persistently.

Leaks From Cap Screws Make Frightfully

Oil drips frequently come from the
cap screws being loose on the crankcase,
from the bearings, from the
plungers or tappets above the cam

ciripn of this kind make a frightfully
