CHARLOTTE, n. c., August 81. d. NJ.
Howard, citizen Of Concord. died from
a very remarkable accident to-day. In
company with young man by the name
of Keziah, Howard came to Charlotte.
When the time came for him and his
friend to return home they found their
purses minus the necessary amounts, so
thev concluded to pick their chances and
"beat" back on the first train The two
walked out to the edge of the town
where two railroads cross each other,
and knowing that all trains were re-
ouired to stop before crossing, they con-
cluded here would be tbeirplaceto get on
At this point long line of cars were
standing on side track. Howard and
Keziah crawled under car to await the
coming of the train. Soon they began
to grow sleepy. and Howard, in order to
make sure Of being aroused when the
train came up, placed himself on the
main track, saying if he old fall asleep
the glare from the headlight of an APP
preaching train would wake him. The
two men slept, and when the train came
along the engineers attention was
attracted by the groans of Il man under
his engine. Howard was extricated from
beneath the crushing engine terribly
mangled. Keziah being aroused came
out from under the cars and told the
story as related above. The mutilated
man vas carried to Concord and good
medical attention summoned, but he
died from his injuries this evening.
Howard was a member of the Concord
military company and will be buried with
honors by that company tomorrow.

A Curious Case-Arrest of a TobaccO-Thief.
Especial telegram TO the Dispatch.l

DANvILLE, Va, August d. Joseph
II. Thornton, wel'-known street-car
driver in this city, has been arrested
here ON a requisition from the Governor
OF Tennessee. The story is curious
one. Some time ago Thornton and Is.
w. Graves. q merchant of Danyille. got
into a legal dispute, which resulted in
Thorntons getting into jail. He after
wards sued Graves for false imprison
ment, but did not recover. In the
transaction between Graves and Thorn
ton Graves purchased wagon and Il
pair OF mules from Thornton. taking
bill of sale for the same, but Thorn
ton retaining possession till his crop
should be made. Ii is said that Thorn
ton afterwards took the mules and wagon
to Rogersville, Tenn. and sold them to
Il. Beasley anu Wade Hampton. Graves
went to Tennessee, claimed the proper
ty, and entered suit for recovery. The
case remained in court two years, and
was finally decided in Gravess favor.
Beasley and Hampton then went before
the grand Jury of Hawkins county and
indicted Thornton for obtaining money
under false prctences. Governor lay
Tor then made requistion for Thorn
ton and the Sheriff is here to-day for his
arrest Thornton sued out writ OF
habeas corpus before Judge Coles, and
the case will be heard on Saturday.
Thornton says he Is entirely innocent

Delighted with the Democratic Ticket
Crops, Etc.
BRISTOL GooDsoN, August 20, 1889.
To the Editor Of the Dispatch
The Democrats OF Washington county
and the whole Southwest are just carried
away with the ticket nominated by the
late convention. 1t is the universal SEN
timent of all Democrats that stronger
or better ticket could not have been pre-
scented to the voters OF Virginia. You
can count upon largely increased vote
of the Grand Old Party in all Southwest
Virginia. The party is in the finest
spirits and Will enter into the canvass
with the determination to bury Malone
Radicalism so deep that "the hand OF
resurrection can never raise 1t.
The white people Of Virginia cannot
afford to allow the State to go into the
clutches of William Malone again. We
all remember his former reign OF tyranny
and well know that il the State should
be so unfortunate as to again fall into his
power that it would be well nigh i'm
possible for the white race to endure a
residence in the State under his rule.
The Democrats have only to organize
and work together to insure his defeat.
The Democrats in Southwest Virginia
pledge themselves to do their part in
the glorious work OF squelching the ex-
boss in November.
The right thing now ia for the counties
to nominate good and trne men for the
Legislature, and, my word for it, the
Ninth congressional district will give
such rousing Democratic majority not
only for the members of the General
Assembly. but also for our noble standard
bearers-McKinney, Tyler, and Scott
as will paralyze the Radical party to such
an extent that it may be hoped they will
never rally again.
The Democrats of Washington county
will meet in convention In Abingdon on
the llth OF September TO nominate two
candidates for the House of Delegates.
The weather has been fair for about a
week past, after almost incessant rams
for over a month, and the farmers are in
good spirits Corn is Just as good as ii
can be the hay crop a good one wheat
threshing out very satisfactorily, and
tobacco quite promising. We think as
soon as the Democrats carry Virginia
by about Is. 600 majority the people at
least ought to be happy and contented.
