NORFCLk, DcCSluDST ~, 1901.
An encounter took place yesterday near
the Peoples Bank, on Main street, between
Captain C. Z. Staples and William Swaine,
prominent merchants of our city, VINO
have settled here since the war. IL
appears that Captain Staples had MT.
Swaine arrestedson the charge OF perjury
and carried before Commissioner foster'
where the case was heard, ana owiane
baiied for his appearance On Ahutsoay III
the sum of 81 500. After leaving the ONCE
of the commissioner the parties met on Inc
street and commenced to abuse each other.
High words passed, when Swaine drew his
nistoI which was taken from him by Mr..
" Ferguson. Statements from Staples
and Swaine appear in this mornings Jour
Dol in which each charge the other with
threatening to kill, Staples stating that
Swaine drew his pistol and said to him,
"Go6 damn you, will murder you. You
are the only witness who has said anything
about or against me-" Swaine states, how
ever, that Staples, ":having in his hand
dirk cane, told me (Swane) if / did not
stop prosecuting him and George (Staples's
brother), by God, he would kill me, using
his cane as if about to commence the exc
cution of his threat"
The case was brought before the Mayor
this morning, who, after a careful exami-
nation Of the matter, censured Staples for
his conduct to Swaine, and fined the latter
twenty dollars for carrying concealed
weapons.
The matter caused little excitement
in the city. Swaire and the Staples have
not been on good terms for some time. They
ralofoI 70 aoph nthor chnrt fipoa
ago Swaine had Staples arrested for felony;
and since then they have been enemies.
A brutal murder was committed in
A man named Moore, in drunken lit,
stamped his wife to death. 1t appears that
he has been in the habit of drinking very
hard and when intoxicated would, whenat
home, abuse and beat his wife quite badly.
Yesterday he drank very freely, and going
home, commenced to quarrel with his wife.
He then began to beat her, and finally
threw her down and stamped and kicked her
about the body, especially about the breast
and throat, until she was dead. a lady
acquaintance happened to call at the house,
and he refused her admittance, but after
q short while told her to come in. Upon
asking him how his wife was, he remarked,
very we'll. The lady, going into the pas
sage, found the body Of Mrs. Moore, when
she Immediately ran out and informed her
husband, who gave the alarm to the police.
They, coming to the house, found Moore
in bed almost mad from drink. He was
Immediately arrested and carried to jail.
He was examined before Mayor White
this morning, when he was committed to
Jail to be sent before the Corporation
Court.
An inquest was held on the body of Mrs.
Moore, and the jury rendered as their YER
dict that her death was caused by being
beat to death by her husband. TALLY.

Beautiful Thought.

A solemn and beautiful thought is ex-
pressed in the following;
1t was related of a well-known divine,
who, when living, was called ''the Prince
of Dizziness" that, when on his death bed,
he was debating to an amenuensis, who
had written:
Il am still in the land of the living"
Stop" aid the dying man, correct
that. Say
Il am yet in the land of the dying, but
hope soon to be in the land of the living"
Beautiful thong hit, and it is SO.
In his closing scene, the Christian is
enabled to contrast this passing, dying
world, with that which is to come

We believe that everyday demonstrations prove
that the affections, we'll as the mental faculties
have tendency to grow in subtlety and acuteness.
The groscing-up generation of both sexes seem
TO have predsposition towards suscetibility,
which would bring the blush to the checks of our
old grand parents. Did any of our old grand
mas ever, in company, deliberately throw her
small, white arms around the neck Of some gay
young, bashull lad, or who of our stern old dads
INDUCED in lachryma grief because the fair
Desdemoniashouldr refuse to perfor this delightful
office, Perhaps we should not have said this
but we had little story, which runs the story

tender years, and lass, whose years were equally
tender, stood upon the steps ola white porch,

young man clearly noticeable in his FESTIVE
manner, and his tone of voice seemed to indicate
that his big, young heart had unwontenly crawled
into his throat, if to stay the avowa of his ten
der love, well sworn to by all the deities in the
calendar, and when this young heart hoped be
yond its tender years, there came that soft, but
oh, unthought, undreamed and unhoped response:
H'Not any, thank you, SIR" And then the eyes
OF the lad Of the big, young heart, grew red and
the lachrymal glands bursting, the big, bright
globes of water ran down his cheek, and gather
ing the down upon his cheek congealed into
