Three charges of larceny were also preferred against the men, but these minor counts will be held back 1 for the more serious charge, which, in this State, is a capital offense.

The charge of burglary was made against the prisoners by dpt. W. II. raj whose residence, 120 Halifax street, the prisoners are alleged to have forcibly entered and robbed of an overcoat one night last week. The overcoat was recovered from a shopkeeper ii whom it had been sold by Charles Williams.

Captain Day appeared in court this morning to prosecute the prisoners and identified his property. The other Indictments against the men are lar- cenv, in having entered and robbed the residence of Mr. V. O. Moring, 127 North Blount street.

At this place the thieves secured two overcoats, one the of Mr. Baxter Durham: the other belonging to Mr. II. II. Robinson, both guests of Mr.

Hutchings, the other the property of a Mr. Porter. The third charge is the alleged entering and robbing of the residence of Mr. C. D.

Smith. They secured thrc ladies' sacques from Mr. Smith's residence. Frank Williams -was arrested Saturday night by Officer Katz iu the eugine room at the ice factory, and on of the stolen overcoats was found in possession. Officer Alderson arrested Charles Williams yesterday morning.

Neither of the two men would have anything to say concerning the marges against them. They are brothers, and stated to Chief Mullin that they were origin, nally of Whitakers, X. but for" some time had been residents of Wilmington. They claim ti have been operatives at the Caraleigh Cotron Mills since taking up their abode in this city. The stolen property was recovered one overcoat in possession of one of the prisoners: another at a clothing store, and tir balance in the hands of private parties who claim to have bought it of the prisoners.

The police department doseryes commendation, and especially f.tfieers Katz and Alderson. for the manner in which this case was handled. A metropolitan department could -not have done1 better. MONKOE QUARANTINES. Trains from Norfolk and Other Smallpox Infested Towns Held Up.

Those who haven't health certificate are not allowed to stop. The Seaboard Air Line yesterday motified all agents on the Raleigh tJaston and Raleigh fc Aucrusta to'have (health certificates for purchasers ofi tuckets. The enforcement of quarantine (against s-uwllpox infected towns by iMonroe has somewhat interfered with the Seaboard's movement of trains.

Train crews that have heretofore run between Norfolk and Monroe now change at Raleigh. The crews of the arriving from Norfolk swap grains here and make the return tiv -to that place. There are many caes of smallpox 4n Portsmouth. As yet Monroe is the only town hereabouts that has quarantine regulations. Shoppers Out in Force.

K. HARSH 216 Favetteville St His Life Was Saved. Mr.

J. E. Lilly, a prominent citizen of Hannibal, lately had a wonder ful deliverance from a frightful deatu. In telling of it he says: "I was taken with Typhoid Fever, that ran into Pneumonia. My lungs became hardened.

I was so weak I couldn't even sit up in bed. Nothing helped me. I expected to soon die of Consumption, when I heard of Dr. King's New Discovery. One great relief.

I continued to use it, and now am well and strong. I can't say too much in its praise." This marvellous medicine is the surest and quickest cure in the world for all Throat and Lung Trouble. Regular sizes 50 cents and $1.00. Trial bottles II) cents at all drug stores. Every bottle guaranteed.

Tickets on sole December 24 and 25; final limit January and you'll say he is a famous judge of what will please you when you see these pretty, perfectly-cut Skirts. And if you are not surprised at the little prices, we are no judge of small, matters. What is nicer than a real pretty for a present? Bed Comforts 4' Here where old Santa is thoroughly at home.

He knows all about what is what When it comes to covering of any kind. If vou liyed where it's as cold as it is at old Santa's home, you'd know a thing or two about what is warm and what is not. Now, these Bed Comforts, Santa says, are the very best selected stock. The $6 Eiderdowns at $4.98 he guarantees to be more beautiful and warmer than any blanket you can buy. They are exquisitely pleasant as' a covering on account of their extreme lightness, without the burdensome weight.

He got us a nice, big stock of all the kinds, ranging in price ioonion 75e- 0C" $1'25' s1-50- $3 and up. Is there a nicer thing for an elegant present? Umbrellas Santa says Umbrellas, in his country are different from those tise here. His people use them to POOR OLD SANTA ClAUS The old fellow Is getting old and feeble, and yet this season he has been worked harder than ever before. It Is really too much for the old fellow. It seems that every one is getting to selecting more substantial things to give, and old Santa Claus blames us to a great extent for this.

But still he says it Is what should have been thought of years and years ago. It is all well enough to give the little ones toys and glmcracks to make them happy, but this way of giving trashy useless things to friends and others Is a useless waste of good money, and does no one any good when It should. Now, If you are out this season to make serviceable, substantial presents, we are right In your line of thought. We have a store full of nice useful things to give two stores full. In fact.

There's too many things to even think of specializing, but we ll just throw out a hint or two in a general way as an Index to the pages and pages of nice, pretty, bright things we have for you. Do you know that Christmas money is the hardest money to make hold out you ever tried But these prices will go a long way toward doubling your pile. Just glance through this little list: THE STORE SMILES AT ITSELF IN IIOIvIDAY ATTIRE. NEVER BEFORE WAS THERE SISCH A VARIETY OF THINGS TO CHOOSE FROM, EVEN DOWN TO THE SMALLEST ARTICLE FOR DOLL WEAR UP TO USEFUL HOUSEHOLD FURNISHING. A GLANCE AT OUR STOCK SHOWS ALL' NEW GOODS, EVERYTHING FRESH.

NO OLD STOCK, BUT THB NEWEST, LATEST, PRETTIEST THINGS. STERLING SILVER NOVELTIES. BRASS TABLES AND MIRRORS. ONYX AND BRASS CLOCKS. MECHANICAL TOYS.

DRESSING CASES. BRIC-A-BRAG Handkerchiefs You ought to have seen old Santa when he was bringing this big pile of Handkerchiefs. Said he never had such a load of dainty pretti-ness in his life. He was that tired when he got hei-e you'd have thought they weighed a ton. But there's thousands of them, and of every conceivable kind, for tot to old age.

We can't describe them, and Santa tried to tell us, but said: "Just tell 'em to come and see for themselves." So we say come 2c. to 50c. Furs. Old man Santa is a great believer in Furs and warm wraps. Says we'll need them here this season, and that before long.

lie knows what kind are best, too. Those he selected for us are pretty, warm and nice, and truly the prices are marvelously small for such nice goods. But then it's just like the dear old man to give more than any one else will. Ladies' Skirts. Santa says up in the for north they don't wear Skirts like out women here do.
