The Charlotte Democrat SAYS: Mr..
John Ewing. aged IS years, was killed
in Mallard Greek Township, on last
Friday Afternoon, while engaged in
digging well. He was Mt the bottom
OF the well when a rock fell from the
top striking him on the back, iDiuring
him SO that he died in about an hour.

An atrocious attempt was made last
Friday to throw the Salem train off

Lumley got on the train to steal a

ing him demanded his fare, and, Oh
refusal to pay, put him off this side of
kernersvillc. On the return trip,
about five miles from Kernersville, a
quantity Of rails were found placed in
Il cattle guard, and some distance from
there pile of wood SO arranged as to
throw the train off in case it passed
the first in safety. Fortunately these
obstructions were seen by the engineer
time enough to prevent any serious
consequences, the speed of the loco
running into them. Lumley was sus-
pected, as he was seen coming from
that direction shortly before, and was
at once arrested. The circumstantial
evidence against him WAS strong
enough to bind him over to court
