THE ABSOLUTE MOCKERY OF LAW.
People Who Come and Go Brief Brevi
ties tit Interest to All Headers
of The Globe.
Mary Ella Thompson and George
Chavis, two inmates of the work house,
escaped yesterday. It was about 4 o'clock
and they have not been found since.
The story is that Chavis was a trusty
hand; that the last time he was there
when his time expired they chased him
away and accordingly much confidence
was reposed in him. Yesterday, how
ever, lie made an escape, taking with him
Mary Ella Thompson.
The parties were chased last night
tracked but in the heavy rain without
avail.
It will be remembered that this Mary
Ella Thompson is the miserable creature
who poisoned the little child of Mrs.
Kirkland. It will be further remembered
that for her inhuman conduct the judge,
the elegant Judge Boykin, sentenced her
to the work house for eighteen months.
IJut she has escaped now. But no matter
to the judge., maybe.
But what about the mother '
What about Mrs. Kirkland whose
sweet and innocent babe sleeps over
there in the cemetery ?
What about all mothers who have their
darling children and are forced to em
ploy servants. What about the sweet
little one whose life blood was eaten up
by the miserable poison which the more
miserable creature gave it to get it out
of the wa' ?
Does the judge who lined Bob Rogers
25 00 for shooting at Jordan and vho
gave the murderess, Mary Ella Thomp
son but eighteen months at pleasure for
a cold-blooded, diabolical and wilful
murder does he, Judge Boykin imagine
that the mother who made the sacrifie
thinks him a just judge V Do the peo
ple who know the facts of Boykin's ad
ministration endorse such mockery?
Not a bit of it.
And if Mary Ella Thompson, who mur
dered Mrs. Kirkland's child, is found and
placed again in the work-house Judge
Boykin is not clear of the indictment
which the court of public opinion has
rendered. In that court, thank God,
there is no corruption and no juries are
b .night.
The whole thing has been an outrage.

society must note. Especially that style
of society which has been stealing chick

The dentists at Morehead City are
not yanking many teeth, but they are
filling the cavities in literature on the
subject of dental surgery.
President Winston, of the university,
has appointed as his private secretary
and stenographer, Mr. A. B. Mimball, of
Hargrove, Granville county.
In the language of Colonel Whitaker,
our weather bureau man, to-day has been
a scorcher. Well, it is hot enough for
us. Is it h t e h f r y u ?
A half dox-n men in Durham have
subscribed for.TiiR Globe to day. Truly
the old shell is a hummer with horns
which are large and tempting.
The guards at the railroad these days
do very little. It may be that they have
but very little to do. If this the case they
are earning the salary in a short-hand
way.
A dozen elegant editors passed
through this city for the press conven
tion during the last few days. They
were going to Winston to get something
to cat.
The court house has had new' weather
strips placed on the doors. While this
is not a matter of national importance it
was business, and business sometimes be
comes national.
The tobacco for this year is coming
along and the Durham warehouses will
be overrun before the spring of '02. And
by the way, did you stop to think that
'i2 is almost here?
Colonel E. M. Graham is not working
his weather bureau these days. Yet at
the same time it is cooler in North Caio
linathan-at the north. North Carolina
is a winner several times a year.
The escape of the girl who murdered
an innocent babcxwiU be treated lightly
by men like Judge Boykin, no doubt.
Hut then justice was outraged even be
fore the girl Thompson escaped.
Colonel Albright was rolling a baby
carriage up street . to day. This i3 all
right for the colonel, but when Jack does
a thing like that Colonel Postley will
will convene the Bachelor's club at once.
Colonel Leo D. Ileartt, who has just
returned from liichmond, says that he
bought the whole city. He wants to know
why a man should monkey with a few
town lots when the whole city is on the
market. And there is some logic in what
he says.
There is a sobby lot of mud just be
yond the grocery store of A. G. Cox k
Co., whicli should be removed. Those
who place the mud there could with
profit pull it out. In fact the smelling
committee of the police force might make
some startling suggestions.
The Greensboro Steam Fire Engine
Co. No. 1 was out with their engine last
night practicing for the tournament at
Durham. If Greensboro don't get the
prize for throwing water the longest dis
tance we will always think she ought to
have had it, says the Workman.
The O & C. train last night was a
funny one. A negro tried to steal a ride,
boarding it at the market house. The
negro thought he would take a ride, but
there was a difference of opinion. The
fireman caught him and rolled him
through the soft coal on the tender.
Then they poured water on him and he
was the sorriest negro that ever tried to
do nothing, in these parts.
It has been a long time since the
Commonwealth Club built a new hotel.
Thvl organization should speedily meet
ami build auother hotel. The last one
fell down, even worse than tLe tower.
The chance of a lifetime is offered. Some
of the boomers who were just going to
build so many thiugs should at least put
up a smoke-house. By their works ye
shall know them, it was writ of old, and
it does seem that the gentlemen who pro
posed to do so much were being forgotten.

THE KID LOCATED 1
It Is Now Said to Ite Near Uills-boro.
A Chance for Decent Teojde to Reflect
on Crime.
CONCERNING THE COUNCIL MEETING
The Horned Horse "Which Farmer Daniels
Itode Into the Press Association
Now at Winston.
At last the kid has been fecund again.
It is the East Durham kid, the little
cuss who at first labored under the heavy
name of Henry Tucker, has been located
at or near. Hillsboro. The Globe is in
formed that the little one, which has been
deserted, which has never known a
mother's care or a father's atTection, r
now living with the father of Sallie Bat
tie, a Mr. William Faucette.
His wife is keeping the kid ; it is said
that it has been seen there. The Globe
proposes to talk about this business be
cause it has been a case of cold blooded,
criminal and diabolical desertion. A hu
man being has been brought into the
world and to all intents and purposes
abandoned. The mothers of Durham,
the honest fathers and all good citizens
will praise The Globe for keeping up
witb this outrage; for doing what hu
manity suggests.
The story comes pretty straight, so
straight that we can pass it for the truth.
It Bill Faucette is not harboring the
helpless child of if he has not been har
boring it he can let us know and a larger
circulation than we have to day "w ill fix
him straight.
This story of desertion is not to .be
laughed at. It is a most wicked and mis
erable affair, and if the child, as is now
alleged, is at the home of Bill Faucette
between University place and Hillsboro,
even now the authorities could act. The
crime grows greater and the conduct of
the parents appears more brazen. The
Globe appeals for an endorsement to the
honest and virtuous mothers who have
children of their own : to those who have
affection and to fathers who believe'irr
decency.
The kid should be cared for.

A MISTAKE IN THE PRLNT.
What a Durham Woman Says About The
Cilobe and the Old Man.
Durham, Aug. 11, 101.
To the Editor You say that "if Dr.
Yates ever runs for office the women
would boycott him." You are very much
mistaken. Nearly all of the women know
Dr. Yates is right. We women know
that he has our true interests at heart,
and he knows what he is talking about.

CUT THE WEEDS.
Street Commissioner Christian Makes an
Order Which Should Count.
Street Commissioner Christian says
that all persons must cut weeds and put
their sidewalks in shape. He says just
cut the weed and the town will cart
them away. If this, is not dome in ten
days the commissioner will cut them and
charge the same to property owners.
This order is cfMcial and those who
need exercise had better prepare to take
it now. It will be cheaper".
