How to Keep Cool.

as it was on Friday, Saturday. Sun

clothing and an umbrella. - DOM

your drinks. Eat sparingly ofmeat
If you will eat meat, the meat of a
pine apple might be taken raw Ear

to take little claret, judiciously tem-

can be worked into palatable bever-
age if you know how. The juice
should be squeezed into a very large
tumbler in which little sugar. has
accidentally fallen. A lump of ice a
bout the size of lump ofchalk might
be Drained over the glass, into which
a gush of apollinaris orseltzer should
afterward be allowed to faint The
chemist then takes a long handled

"Mistress Mary, So Contrary"

-
On last Friday night at Browns
Opera House, the historical "Mrs.
Mary" (personated by Miss Maud
Broadway and whom all our juve-
nile friends will readily recognize as
the Mistress Mary, who was SO con-
trary,' exhibited her human flower
garden.
The young ladies who represented
the various plants or flowers (and
they were all as beautiful as could be)
were Respondent in rainbow" attire
that is to say, they wore white
dresses trimmed with call the colors
of the rainbow''-and wore over their
faces a kind Of mask made ofthe par
ticular flower each represented The
exhibition was most creditable both
to Mistress Mary and her flower
garden. After this preparatory open
ing of the evenings entertainment,
ice-cream, Strawberries and cake were
served to all who would buy-and it
seemed that everybody bought, for
the cream was soon exhausted and
every thing else edible soon disap-
peared.
The evenings entertainment was
under the superintendent of the vs.
of Winston, Miss Minnie Qghurn pres,
ident, and was success in every par
ticular-a fact which it gives PHE
SENTINEL pleasure to note.

OUR INITIAL RAILWAY WAR.
The r. & D. and R. & S. Lock Horns Over
a Side-Track.


Some days ago. the city author
tiles completed grading the street
running north and south between the
tracks of the n. W. \. G.. r. r. Co.
OR. & d.. and the Roanoke & South
ern r. r. Co. This work was done
for the convenience of the shippers OF
this city and cost considerable money.
Part of the grading was done within
the 100 feet of land owned by the
r. & ID.
On Tuesday morning a squad Of
hands commenced work laying Il side
track from the main line of the r.. &
d. right up the street, keeping within
their 100 feet limit, but putting it on
the land that had been graded. They
laid track all day Tuesday, all night,
and all day Wednesday, running up
i hill and down
The track runs within % feet of the
R. & S. depot and is about 100 yards
long, running to the foot of Bird
street.
This action on the part of the r. &
D. has aroused the Indignation of the
stockholders of the r. & s. and of
some of the citizens of Winston
Salem. While it is conceded by all
that the X. Il ID. had right to put
track on their own land, still it seems
unfair for them to do it just at this
juncture.
The re- D. on Tuesday proposed to
allow Is feet of their land if the r. &
S. would do the same and enter into
a perpetual agreement to use the
ground thus set apart only for a
street. The r. & S. refused to do
this, as it would prevent them from
using a part of their land for loading
and storage purposes and SO the
matter rests, while the r. & D. con-
tinues to shovel dirt on the siding.
OF course the sympathy of the maj
GRITTY is with the r. & s. Co., it being
a home enterprise, but there are
many who say that the proposition
of the r. & D. is fair one and should
be accepted.
LATER:
Since the above was put in type:
Yesterday evening an amicable ar
rangement was perfected, each road
contracting with the city authorities
to allow 10 feet of their ground for Il
street.

WHAT THE GIRLS FATHER SAYS.

This morning d reporter of the
Visitor called upon Wesley Whitaker,
Esq, the father OF the outraged
young lady. Mr.. Whitaker was labor
ing under the greatest physical and
mental excitement over the horrible
event that has brought grief to his
household He did not desire to
speak as freely, as he perhaps would,
if he had consulted his counsel, but
he declares that the outra in its de-
tails will far surpass rumors. He
says that Boyle threw his daughter
down twice, the second time success
fully accomplishing The horrible act.
He threatened her with pistol, and
IN order to stifie her screams he plac-
ed his hand across her throat Mr.
Whitaker says his laughter is seven
teen years of age An examination
was made by one Of bar foremost
physicians on Saturday night, which
proves beyond aoubt the full accom-
plishment OF the assault lie saws
his daughter is much bruised in sew
eral parts Of her body. He declares
when the evidence is fully before the
public, it VIII develop one OF the most
brutal crimes ever perpetrated in this
section Of the country. Further than
this Mr. Whitaker does not desire at
this junctGre to speak.

THE PRELIMINARY TRIAL.

Some time before the appointed
hour, the Mayors office was filed
with an eager crowd to hear the pro-
ceedings in the case At 10 O'Clock
Mayor Thompson took his seat. 4
message was sent to the counsel for
the prisoner, announcing that the
court was ready to proceed with the
case. At 1885 the counsel on both
sides entered. At this juncture it was
suggested that owing to the crowded
condition of the room, the court adj
journ to Metropolitan Hall; this sug-
gestion was carried out, and soon
the prisoner entered the hall. He ap-
peared somewhat nervous at first,
but seemed in q short while to resume
serene expression. He occupied a
seat in rear of his counsel with whom
he frequently consulted. Mr.. Fuller
on the part of the defendant waived
an examination, and the prisoner
was committed to Jail to await fur

THE PRISONER

Is native of Pennsylvania. He
has been in charge OF the church in
this city for only {, few months, and
iatterly he has been conducting him
self ia such q manner, that it is said
steps have been taken to have him
arraigned before the proper ecclesias-
teal tribunal On several occasions
he has been seen under the influence
of liquor, and it is asserted that on
his arrival here on Saturday after
noon last from the eastern of this
State, he was noticed to have been
drinking He is said to be we'll con-
neeted, and that his father has con
siderable means. He is evidently IL
man of fine education and possesses
rare conversational qualities.
1t is, of course, not known what
will be the line of defence made by the
counsel of the prisoner, but rumor
has it that information has been re-
ceived from his f. ther stating he had
once been an inmate of an Insane
| Asylum. We merely give it as eur
rent talk on the streets without, to
any extent, vouching for it.

A HORRIBLE CRIME.
A ScoundrelIy Priest .Rapes a Beautiful

There has been and there is yet

commission of one OF the most hor-
rible and sensational deeds ever per-
petrated in North Carolina: The
criminally assaultine. of a beautiful.
well-connected, yirtuous young girl
by a Catholic priest We copy from
the Raleigh Evening Tisitor of Mon
day the following account of the af-
| fair:
No event that has ever happened
in our city, or, indeed in North Caro-
lima, has aroused the excitement
which was caused on Saturday night
last between eleven and twelve o clock.
when the rumor was spread that Rev.
j. j. Boyle, pastor of the Catholic
| Church of the Sacred Heart had been
arrested and incarcerated, charged
with the heinous crime of committing
an outrage on the person of Miss
Geneva Whitaker, daughter of our
well-known citizen, Wesley Whitaker.
Esq. Mr.. Boyle was first arrested on
a warrant charging him with an at
tempt to commit the crime alluded
to, but later in the night (about
1920 o'clock a second warrant was
issued and served, charging him with
contamination of the deed. The ar
rest was made at the parsonage OF
the church which is an annex of the
building, and, after consulta ton with
his counsel, the prisoner was convey
! ed to the city station-house to await
a preliminary investigation which
was set for this morning at 10 o. clock.
