THE CAUSE or THE DEATH OF COLO
MEL JULIAN ALLEN.
Took Walk to 10 wcddcd-A Very Nu-
merous Father-minor
Mention.


CHARtorrr. N. c., February i4.-It Is
learned TODAY that Colonel Julian Allen,
who died q day or two ago at his home IN
Statesville, owes his death as certainly, IL
not as directly. TO rsilroad-car a. IL he
had persisted in an accident. In the early
part of December he went TO Raleigh on
business and returning took the sleeper
attached TO the freight train leaving Tor
the West about A. III. Boarding the car
be found sitting atmosphere, roaring
fire, no ventilation, and temperature
which was intolerable. He caused the
porter TO open the ventilators. and when
the temperature had been somewhat low
cred went TO bed. He awoke in the morn
ing 10 find all the yentilators closed and
the fire roaring as on the night before, and
got off at Greensboro with dull pain IN
his head. This increased from day to day,
until an abscess formed, giving him mex
pressIble suffering. and IT finally broke
and discharged freely. The pain, now,
eyer. did not wholly abate for weeks; ana
then he began recovering slowly, but the
indications were deceptive. The infiam-
nation attacked the brain and carried him
OF without warning.
WALKED TO DE Welded.
Night before last William Tucker.
young man twenty years old, stole away
Miss Sallie Sanders. pretty young Anson-
county girl. and the two walked in the
night to Hornsboro', ). c., where they
were married by w. A. Evans, a justice OF
the peace. The happy couple then board
ed train and returned home. arriving
just before day yesterday morning.
Young Tucker was surprised to find his
new fatber-in-law at the depot awaiting
his arrival. The old man told his daughter
to come with him and return to the parental
roof and gently informed the young groom
that if he opened his mouth he would
thrash him out. Tucker submitted and oil
lowed his bride of half dozen hours to
be taken from him, but he says he will in
stitute proceedings against the old man to
recover.
John d. Green, perhaps the Oldest citizen
of Arson county, died yesterday, at the age
of ninety-three.
HE WAS QUICK.

II will leave Philadelphia, Broad

out change, the entire train being trans
