NEw YonK, Nov. 2s.-Charles Edwards,

ble accident to-day Ten years ago, when
but fifteen years old, he was irrecuimable.
/! Every now and then he visited his
father and importuned him for money.
Lately his demands for money have be-
come more and more frequent, and when
refused the worthless son resorted to
threats, and with the, brandished knife
would often force his father toYgive him
funds, fearing that the boy would take his
life. l'f.-5l 40 ! :tTSGis-3ia, ~
Two weeks ago lie visited his fathers
house at night, aud, razor in hand got
few dollars more. Last night lie came
ugain, and the sons threats so worked
upon the father's mind that she placed Il
revolver in his hipEr6cket 10 protect him
self in case the graceless boy repeated
the attempt on his2life. This informing
Mr.. Edwards younger son, Harry, came
from Newark spentlthcT Tday4witlrhis
parents. When he and his father were
chatting Charles suddenly burst into tho
room in n half-drunkent condition. :.
II want some money!" he cried, defiant
ly, addressing the old inan.
'Tcan't give u'any,t tso; let me alone,
his father answered.

ing his hand into a breast pocket, Churies
drew out a large carving knife. His father
rose from the cnair Us the yilain rushed
at him with uplifted weapon! u; |
A"Stop," lie cried; but seeing The knife
directed ut his breast, he quickly drew his
revolver and pulled the trigger; but that

stricken at what had happened, dropped
on his knees beside him, and gave vent to
his terrible emotions, while the wretcl,ed

Theiagonized cries Of the poor old man
brought in another son, Moses, who, sup.
posing that Charles had committed the
deed, ran out in search Of an officer.
Charles fed before the police came, and
when Detective Reilly entered the room,
hefound the distracted old man embracing

A negro named Bill johnson was
hanged by n mob at Gonzales, Tex, for
brutally assaulting a respectable white
woman.
Fuller and more accurate details OF the
cyclone which recently swept through North
Carolina make the disaster greater than first
reports indicated. Eight counties were laid
waste, nearly twenty people killed and wound
ed, and the damage to property will amount
to hundreds of thousands of dollars. In Cat
awba County alone tho loss is over 500, 600.
Some of the farmers in that county lost whole
herds Of cattle by the destructive elements.
Some OF these were blown a hundred yards
away, and buried among the debris Of tho
wreck. Over 100 houses were blown down in
Catawbs County. Eight or ten
OF the persons wounded will

escaped by crawling into caves in the mount

Hon. David J. Brewer. of Kansas,
has been appointed Judge of tho Eighth CIR
cult, TO succeed Judge McCrary. Judge
Brewer was born in Smyrna, Asia Minor,
June 20. 1887. His father. tho Rev. Josiah
Brewer, was n missionary to tho Greeks In
Turkey. His mothers maiden name was
Emelia Field, she being u sister Of David
Dudley and Cyrus w. Field. Judge Brewer
commenced his studies ut Wesleyan
University In Middleton. Conn, but re-
moved TO New Haven and graduated mt
Yalo College In 1858. Hc has been
u resident of Kansas for twenty-six years
Tho appointment of Brewer is surprise to
the friends of the candidates from the othor
States They say generally that they doubt
very much whether Brewer had any sup
porters outside OF Kansas, and they do not
understand the political meaning of the ap-
pointment. The Iowa men arc especially
disappointed. They had hopes that McCoid
would be appointed.
Ex-senator Sargent has been trans
fcrred from the mission toBorlin to the Russian
mission. He was confirmed by the Senate
without the formality OF a reference. This
