Horrible Death at Greensboro.

AT four o'clock last Friday morn
ing negro man named Scofeld CAN'T
was cut in two by the backing OF a
train. The Patriot says the wheels of
fat, b TX car, tender and one wheel
of the engine passed over him cutting
his body entirely in two at the waist,
mangling one leg, grinding one arm
to pieces and scattering flesh. blood
and eatrails along the track fol fifty
feet. CAN'T called for help as the
train was rolling over him and when
it stopped. begged to be taken out.
This was done and his horribly
mangled body laid on truck skid.
He never lost consciousness and as he
lay there in the cold, gray shadows of
the early dawn, with his lower extrem-
tiles held to the upper part of his body
by slender shreds of muscle, he talked
calmly of his suffering and left mes
sages for his people, glancing now and
then at his mangled arm and at his
bloody entrails lying beside him. He
talked for three-quarters Of an hour,
until he died.
Within short time Gantt's grand
mother Hagar Shepherd went to see
the remains. She stayed only few
minutes and returned home. AS she
reached her door she tottered and fell
dead.

Mr.. P. M. Wills on.

The Raleigh correspondent of the
Wilmington Messenger has the fol
lowing to say of one of our towns
men:
Mr.. p. NJ Wilson, who has for n
year been State commissioner of I'M
migration, but who resigned last
June, has gone to Winston to live.
His resignation was not made public
at the time, and his successor was
not appointed by the board. Inqui-
ny was made of Commissioners Robin
son today why a successor had not
been appointed, and the reply was
that the board wished to save the
money and use it in building the me-
chanical department at the Agricul-
tural and Mechanical college. The
Office ought not to have been left va
cant, however. An active immigra-
ton commissioner who will devote
himself to the work will be of great
value. 1t now appears that no one
will be appointed until the board
meets in December, though the office
is a constitutional one. Mr.. Wilson
resigned to become secretary of the
West End Land and Improvement
company of Winston, with which he
had for some time been connected.
He retains the position of secretary
of the State Agricultural Society.
The premium list of. the State fair
are out and are being now circulated
One of them was seen today. There
are many valuable premiums.

They Call Tillman a Liar.

A special to the press from Charles
ton, S. c., says that the campaign in
that State becomes more bitter and
more personal every day. The meet
ing at Hampton Court House, the
home of State Senator Moore, whom
Tillman has charged with perjury in
voting in the Senate, Saturday was one
of personalities and Interruptions i'll
stead of issues. Farmer Tillman was
the speaker.
The trien Is of Moore asked Tillman
10 name those lie charged with perjury
He did SO, and as soon as he had uttef
ed the name "Moore," Mr.. A. p. You
mans made his way to the front and
said in Il raging voice, with clenched
list and glowing eyes: Captain Till
man, you are lara black liar
Prove it on him. We rammed the lie
down your dirty throat at Ridgeway
You lied then, and yon know it.
Others yelled out to Tillman that
he was Il liar. Then there was rush
for Youmans. His coat was caught
Men caught hold Of each other and fol
some time trouble was imminent
Tillman's followers rushed him to the
front and dared any one to touch him
Pandemonium reigned for some
time. At last, things quieted down
and the speeches were continued amid
frequent Interruptions.

Killed By a Policeman.
[From the State Chronicle. ]

From the State Chronicle.
Last Saturday mulatto named
James Jones, about 45 years old, who
was drunk, attacked a man and knock
ed him down, in Raleigh. Another
man ran up and attempted to stop the
fight and prevent Jones from inficting
serious injuries. Jones at once at
tackled the second man and police
officer w. E. Hogue attempted to
arrest Jones and was knocked down
snd Jones then ran and refusing to
halt the officer fired at him as he ran
along the sidewalk. One of the bullets
struck w. F. Belts, white clerk, in
the leg and another struck Jones'
The office in a few moments caught
Jones and holding revolver close to
his side shot him through the abdomen.
Jones died in half an hour. Hogue
was at once arrested and is now in
Jail. The negroes gathered in
large numbers and there was much
talk about the shooting. Jones was a
farm hand and a quiet man when
sober, but when drunk was like a
a mailman.

unexpired term Judge McCnrkle was
appointed by Gov Fowle to ill lis
worn with ease, grace and dignity.
Stokes court is the first experience OF
Judge McCorkle us judge, yet he pre-
sides as though he had spent his life
on the bench His charge to the
grand jury was il clear and forcible
explanation of the law. wkB
The grand jury was drawn and en-
panelled, with NJ. ID. Ham as fore
man.
There were So cases on the civil
docket and 121 on the State docket.
There were no criminal cases of any
Importance, unless it be that two
women, who are in jail, should be
convicted of the charge for which
they stand indicted-that of burgla-
nv. 1t seems that these women broke
into the house of bad woman in the
night time, dressed in mems clothes,
and whipped her and carried off some
of her clothing and burned it. 1t APP
pears. from all | can learn, that it
was done through jealousy; yet they
have done what the law says is bur-
glarv, and are to be tried for their
lives.
Up to the time your correspondent
left no cases of Importance had been
tried. Will Gray and Solomon Hen
derson, both colored, had been SEN
fenced to the penitentiary for two
wears, each for larceny.
Hon. A. H. A. Williams, our next
Congressman, was in Danbury, shak-
ing hands and making more ac-
quaintances. On Tuesday he made n
short but most excellent speech,
which won the heart of every Demo-
crat who heard him, and disheart-
ened the Republicans, for. they are
satisfied that Brewer stands no
showing against such Il man, for he
is such an aff;,ble and Intelligent gen
tleman that he will win friends where
ever he goes, and the best of all is he
is going to canvass this whole dis
tict. ,.
