FOURTH EDITION,
Fight with u Bull.
From the Smyrna Times.

John f.. Gollsborough is the posses
sor of three-year-old Alderney bull
that was obtained from the farm of the
late Col. McComb, of Wilmington, when
a calf and has grown into a splendid
animal of about 90Otbs Mr.. Goldsbo-
rough got up early on Sunday,in the alb
sence of others, to milk the cows i'll the
cool of the morning. He walked into
the poand carelessly swinging the milk
pail, which the young bull evidently
took for challenge, and before Mr.. u.
was aware that fight was on hand or
even thought of, especially on hot
Sunday morning, he was " off his pins, =
rolling OH the ground with two fierce
eyes glaring at him, a pair of sharp
horns searching for a tender spot to rlp
up, the animal snorting and roaring
like very demon.
The fight was terrible, and MIR. u. s
escape can only be attributed to the
fact of his unusual strength. A weak
man could not have thus escaped. AS
the bull would make dash at his pros
trate figure he would grab and twis a
horn, thus diverting its direct force,
but he was sorely bruised in several
places, and has carried rainbow across
| his abdominal region ever since. The
morning was enough of itself to draw
the perspiration, but the sight of mad
bull Jumping around in such capers
was worse than that, ard by the time
the bull had rolled him over and mopped
NJ the dust for a distance OF some
twenty feet he was begrimed from head
to foot like something that had beel
wallowing in the mire.
He was nearing the stable where he
knew the bull superior strength won d
enable him to bore hole through him
and a desperate tug at the horn ana
twist of the neck drove the animal barR
with the purpose of coming with a
stronger lnge. Fortunately, as he
came this time he stumbled over pile
of manure and fell prostrate himself
This was Mr.. Goldsborough's oppor

day afternoon by Undertaken Palmer
The body was encased in walnut

met With encouragement from almost
every one they waited upon and have
succeeded in raising the entire amount
with the exception of a few dollars

not fall too heavily on the parties hav

already contributed their portion OF tn
money besides doing all the work o
raising the same.
A donation Of So. 80 was received from

A Mysterious RObber.

Mr.. Strang, an elderly gentleman, re-
siding at Seventh and Wilson streets,
has been the victim of a mysterious
robbery. He had about three hundred
dollars in the house, which he kept
locked up in IL drawer, the key of which
his wife kept in a hiding place. She
had frtJurn ly urged him todeposit the
money, but he deferred doing 50 until
he had paid his taxes.
Last Thursday night one of the sons,
who was ont, and did not return until
after the family had retired, thought he
heard some one on the roof and upon
going to the front door found that it
was securely held by some one on the
outside. On Sunday Mrs. Strang count
ed the money and finding it all right,
put the key back in its hiding place,
and gave herself no further concern
about it
On Tuesday she went to look at it
again, and found the key where she
had put it, but the money was gone.
Who took it, or when it was taken, are
mysteries which the family have vainly
endeavored to solve.

Another aud lldate

Ex-senator Wallace, of Prnnsy ylvanla,
is said to aspire to the next Democratic
nomination to the Presidency. During
the time that he has been in private
life he has carefully rebuilt his fortune
and is now thought to be worth 5000,
900.
He has also cemented and strength
ened his influence with his party. ne
has supported Governor Pattison only
so far as it served his own purposes, ana
has left it to be known distinctly tla
he did not intend to be overshadowe'
by any upstart leaders in the Demo
cratic party.
1t has been remarked that his intiu
ence with the Democratic members o
the Legislature is much greater than
Pattison's. Mr. Walace's plans have
been quietly but shrewdly laid, an'
whoever imagines that the ex-senator. .
dead politically may find ont his ms
take when it is too late.

VOy)OUISM.
A COlOred Woman who Says She IL
BeWttched.

About ten days ago colored woman,
named Hannah Lloyd, living OH Gree
ley street, near the railroad, was taken
sick and acted in a singular manner.
At che moment she would territy the
whole neighborhood with her screams,
and the next she would be singing and
shouting. Between the paroXysms, she
said she was bewitched and accused an
old colortd woman in the neighborhoou
with putting a spell on her.
GreeIy street has had many sensa-
tious, fights and quarrels are of fre-
querr occurrence, but this was the first
case Of wi.chcratt, and the supersti'
tions ot the colored people in the vi
cinity w+re wrought to their highest
pitch, and So much Indignation aroused
against The supposed authorities of the
mischief, hat she was obliged to leavt
the neig hborLood to escape personal
violence.
Meanwhile TIT victim has continued
her strange actions and tor the past
week a number OF cOlureu people have
been nigutly meeting at the house and
conductihg weird spells and incanta
tons for the p rpose of driving out the
evil spirits, aud relieving her from the
wi,chcrat with which they believe she
is possess d.
A colortl man who lives in the vici
nifty was interviewed this morning, ant
said that i is his firm belief, that th
woman is b~wi1ched. He understOO,
that Il physician had been to see her
but according 10 the speaker he could II
do her ans good, but If they would sen'
for an old colored woman who tells for
tunes in the Western part Of the cit.
she could break the spell. The atfai
is causing considerable excitement il
the locality, and some Of the better in
formed are under the impression tina
the spell i, caused Ivy a too free use o
common whisky.
