Another Outrage.

Mrs Elizabeth Brown, an operative
in one of the Durham factories, while
on her way to Danville; was robbed
and nearly killed by two men in
Greensboro Saturday night.
1t appears that the old lady had
sold her little property in Durham,
receiving therefor about 5000; that
while exchanging bag of silver coin
for paper money, she is supposed to
have beer spotted by the parties, who
followed her to Greensboro.
Having decided to spend the night
in Greensboro, she was accosted by
the men who offered to show her to a
boarding house Instead of doing
SO, they lured her out near the Fe-
male Academy, robbed her of all she
had, struck her over the head with an
iron bolt, stamped her, and then
threw her in a branch of water for
dead. She revived, however, drag
ged herself to the college, at 2o'clock
a. m. Sunday, and is now lying in a
critical condition at a boarding-house
in Greensboro At last accounts the
robbers and would-be murderers had
not been apprehended.

A BAD SPIRIT
Shown by the Negroes of Winston and
Vicinity

The negroes of this community are
said to have held meeting last week
for the purpose OF raising funds to
defend the scOundrels who have been
perpetrating the recent outrages i'll
our midst, and for the further pur-
pose of engaging counsel to prose
cute policeman Penny, who killed the
notorious negro ex-convict, Jake Bell,
in the discharge of his duty as an Of
ficer of the law.
A considerable sum is said to have
been raised for these purposes, but
we learn that the negro who was APP
pointed custodian OF the fund, has
since skipped with the money. The
feeling which prompted this meeting
reflects no credit upon the negroes
who attended it. Instead of at
tempting to shield the criminalcl classes
of their race from the punishment
they deserve, and which is reasonably
sure to be meted out to them, they
should be interested in the detection
and conviction of the scoundrels. If
they are law-abiding citizens, they
should rejoice in the triumph of the
law, instead of attempting to OBJ
struct the administration of justice.
We counsel the better element of
the race to take steps to arrest this
reign of crime; we warn the negroes
generally of this community that the
black hand of the assassin and the
robber must be stayed, orvengeance,
dire in it's results and more speedy
than the law, may be visited upon
the offending heads.
Individually, or as a newspaper,
we threaten no one, no class-nOt
even the criminal class We are not
advocates of lynch law, but we know
the temper of this people, and if the
highway robber and the assassin
shall stalk about the peaceful streets
of this law-abiding city, and into the
business places of these law-abiding.
people, as has been done during the
present month, heroic measures are
likely to be adopted to rid the COM
munity of the whole gang of lawless
scoundrels

AT THE OPERA HOUSE.
What Has Been and Is to be Before Win
ston's People This Week.

Last Sunday afternoon Rev. j. A
Monday preached to men in Browns
| Opera House. First, let us tell you
something about him.
He was born and reared in States
vile, and went to school with our
townsman, Major John G. Young.
At 16years old he ran away, took to
the stage and was an actor for years.
During his thespian career he was
connected with the company of John
Templeton and took the part of Car
Isle in East Lynne when it was pre-
sented for the first time in Winston.
Our postmaster, Maj. Smith, remem-
bers him and his acting.
After leaving the stage, he lived all
lives, and sounded all depths of dissi-
patton, while studying law, reporting
for a paper and tending bar.
In 1876 he protested religion and
commenced to preach. Since then he
has been successful as minister and
has done great good. His press no
tees are highly commendatory.
In Winston, his large audience was
pleased with his sermons, one in the
Opera House and the other in the
Baptist Church, though they were
disappointed somewhat in his lecture,
"Git There Eli" This lecture was
good and very funny, but the au-
dience expected too much, as they
judged from his sermons. He can
preach better than he can lecture.
At the end of his lecture he said,
Winston is bound to "Get There. ="
With her energetic business men and
coming railroads she is destined to
be the town of North Carolina. :"
See there, what a strange: says OF us!
He is exactly right. That's what
everybody says who really knows the
town.
CORA VAN TAssEL COMING!
There isn't a woman on the stage
who is such a favorite with Winston
theatre-goers as Cora. She is always
refined and always presents chaste
plays. Then, too, her acting is far
above the average and always pleases.
She has been here three or four
times and our people will give her a
hearty welcome. This time she will
present CHERRY Ripe" a picture of
rural New England life, on tomorrow
friday night. On Saturday after
noon there will be a matinee and Sat
urday night another differently per-
Torrance.
Prices for admission to the plays
are Is, 25 and 35 cents; for the
matinee Is and 25. Tickets are on
sale at Browns Drug Store.

Another Suggestive Letter From q
Business Man.
{ Correspondence to the Seatiael.l

Correspondence to the Seatinel.l
Replying toyour very welcome and
suggestive card, we consider that the
advancement and prosperity of our
town is dependent upon the united
effort of our business men to push
forward those enterprises that our
town needs. Already has this good
work received a new impetus, and
now through the perseverance and
energy of our business men we have
railroads nearly completed running
North, South, East and West; cleo
trio lights, water works, &c.
Now we want bold, energetic, per-
severing men with capital or without
capital to carry forward the work of
progression and let us not lie on the
laurels already gained, ''hugging the
delusive phantom of hope" expect
ing prosperity and fortune to come
to us without further effort.
Let us have concert of action. Let
us have the hearty cooperation of
the pres. and the Chamber of Com
merce and business men. Let the press
lay aside political harangues and an
imosities and labor for the upbuild-
ing of the town.
We need more capital and skilled
labor to develop and utilize the re
sources of the county and this can
be best attracted by the issuing of
an industrial manufacturing journal,
setting forth the advantages of this
locality. This should by all means
be done at once Then when the eyes
of the world are turned toward us
and people are seeking homes in a
salubrious climate, seeking desirable
locations for manufacturing, let us
show them that we are apace with
the times let us show them that our
streets, our sidewalks, our court
house and our hotels are second to
none in the State. These things
should go forward at once.
4 Building and Loan Association
would be great auxiliary.
Diversified industries to utilize our
surplus labor are wanted. We have
too many idle people in Winston.
Street cars, or perhaps better for
the present, a line of Herdic coach
es which are used in almost every
city north of Washington, would
very much enhance the value OF prop
erty in the suburbs and not depreci-
ate it's value in town.
The tobacco interest which has al
ready grown to such magnitude
should move on with the same pro-
gressive spirit that will characterize
the other interests of the town.
Then let us offer every inducement
to manufacturers at home or abroad
to locate such factories among us as
will utilize our undeveloped resources,
timber, iron, coal, marble, granite
and cotton And let us inaugurate
and incorporate, foster and maintain
those institutions that will build us
up. X. STEVENS.

Tobacco Notes.

Folks around here are used to big
breaks at the warehouses, cut the
amount of tobacco that has been sold
in Winston during the last two weeks
is surprising even to them. Why you
never saw the like of it! All the space
in our big warehouses was packed
and damned and they had to clean
off the wagon-ways and use them as
fioor-room to accommodate the enor-
nous amount Of tobacco that was
brought from every county within
fifty miles of Winston. On one day,
by actual count, there were over 400
wagons in town. Think of it!
For few days prices were a little
higher than usual until the leaf-deal-
ers filed up and then prices came
down to the average the best aver
age price in the State, so we have
been told by men who have tried 9th
er markets.
One gentleman from Guilford coun-
ty, brought five wagon-loads here
and carried away twelve hundred dol
lars. That's a pretty good showing
for one mans crop, isn't it?
And it seems that we are not halt
done with the deluge of golden leaf
that this season has brought, be-
cause wagons are still coming in by
scores and The SENTINEL cores
pondent from Wilson's Store Gays
that they are getting ready to come
down on us again.
All right, gentlemen, come right
along. We can use every leaf you
bring right here in our factories and
our buyers are ready and willing to
give good prices.
This year promises to be even u
better year for the manufacturers
than last. Orders are coming in SO
fast that even some of the largest
firms sometimes have to buy certain
grades from other factories and all
hands are fixing to begin manufac-
turing as soon as possible. Mr.. Frank
Hanes has already begun and several
others will be making the toothsome
plug before THE SENTINEL greets it's
readers again.
