cursionists from Winston-Salem now

The happy couple were Mr.. John

Miss Orburn R. Graham, a comely
young lady of Salem.
About forty or fifty of the excur-
sionists and q few Wilmington peo-
pie gathered in the parlor to witness
the marriage and among them was a
member of the Messenger staff who,
by the way got his autograph on tho
marriage license as one of the wit
nesses.
The ceremony was performed by
the Rev. S. F. Conrad, of Winston.
Messrs. T. j. Naughton and j. Y.
Chidester, two young gentlemen
from Winston Salem, acted as ush
ers.
The bride is the daughter of Mr..
Richard F. Graham, of Salem, and
the groom is the son of Mr.. John N.
Winner, a gallant Confederate veter-
an, who lost. both leg and an arm in
the war.
Last night about IL o'clock, Mr..

oh, For a Court House!

Is the present century going to
close without the people of Forsyth
county making solitary effort to
build a new court house? Is one of
the banner counties of North Caro-
lima, rich in agricultural resources,
one that has made more rapid strides
in the past ten years in material
progress than any county in the
State going to permit the brick barn
that shames the name of court house
continue to occupy the most public
place in the county seat? These are
questions that should address them
selves to every man who feels any
county pride. Thepresent court house
is plenty good enough for those who
have no county pride.

Does Not Care for the state.


Eve hear of certain paper out
side of the State that has 5000
weekly subscribers in the State, aud
this is to the neglect of faithful
home papers. That paper is q good
one, but it really cares nothing for
North Carolina or its interests. It
never defends the State or seeks to
advance its interests. 1t really takes
no more interest In the affairs of
North Carolina than it does in those
of Massachusetts,, although publish
ed in tho South. It is no more
North Carolinian than the New York
Herald or Tribune or World is North
Carolinian. Wilmington Messen-
ger.
If tho people of our State, in their
respective sections, would give their
home papers q more liberal support
they would enable their publishers to
get out far better papers than they
do. 1t is not an uncommon thing
when you approach a man and ask
him to take your paper for him to
say, oh, am taking the New York
Sun, or the Atlanta Constitution,
and I can not afford to take your
paper. But when this man wants a
personal puff, or a gratis advertise
ment he knows where to find his
home paper; and when he wants to
make damaging criticisms about it,
he knows where to find it, If he has
to borrow it from his neighbor.

A HEAVENLY HONEYMOON.
A Young Couple Found Locked in
Each Others Arms-Dead.


NEW York, April 2O.-A young
couple registered at the Grand Union
hotel, Forty-Second street and Fourth
avenue, Sunday as p. Bertrand and
wife, and were assigned to Room DS
large room on the third floor. Tonight
at $50 O'Clock they were found dead in
the room from gas asphyXiation-
locked in each others arms They had
employed the old familiar method
OF Inhallng gas through rubber
tubes held in the mouth. On the
woman's breast was large and
beautiful bouquet, evidently purchased
by the young man for the occasion of
death. None about the hotel knew who
the couple were, but they were evidently
Germans. lie was of light complexion
and she was dark. The young man was
last seen ABOUT the hotel alive Yesterday
morning, and the fact that there was
anything wrong about room was dis
covered by the chambermaid reporting
that she could not enter it or get any
response to her knocking. When the
door was burst open it was found that
the couple were in the bed
wrapped in each others arms. The
bed had been pulled out into the
center OF the room to a place directly
under the big chandelier, so as to give a
better opportunity for their work. The
man was about twenty-five years old,
and the woman twenty-five. They left
four letters, two to Mrs. Miller, of 21O
East Ninth street, one to the coroner.
and one to woman in WilIiamsburgh.
The remains were removed from the
hotel tonight with some attempt at Sc
crecy. the undertaken removing the
plate bearing his name from his wagon.
The Mrs. Miller to whom one letter
was addressed refuses to state who the
suicides are. The letters have not vet
been opened.

TWO Murders and a Dozen As
sauitS in One Family.


sauits III One Family.
NEW YORK, April 2O.-In Hoboken at
about quarter of l o'clock this morn
Ing Angelo Gabotb, thirty-five years
cid, Of New York, murdered his mother
ln-law, dangerously stabbed his father
in-law, and was then killed by Como
quito Chinchella son of the murdered
woman. a general fight followed in
which GabOth'S wife was stabbed, and
also her brother. Antonio Chinchella.
Ills wife and their sons, ConOquitO and
AnSello, aged eighteen and twenty
years respectively. lived in three rooms
at No. 1J5 Grand street, HQboken. The
house is tenement. The ChinchellaS'
daughter and her husband, Angelo Ga
both, were visiting the Chinchellas last
night. GabOth was shiftleSS fellow.
MI. Chinchella had saved up some
money, and there is no doubt that Ga
both knew about this and wanted it.
1t looks as If his visit were planned for
the sole purpose OF securing it, and
1t is suspected that he contemplated
murder when he went with his
wife to visit her family. Last night
Ga0oth'S wife slept i'll one room with
her mother and Gaboth slept in the sec
6nd room with the elder Chinchella, his
father-in-law.: Chinchella's two sons oc-
cupied the third room. At 1890 O clock
this morning, while all were soundly
sleeping, -Gaboth arose from his bed,
and, with.a stiletto in his hand, went
dnto his mother-ln-law's rooms. The
next instant shrek rang through the
apartment. 1t lasted but an instant,
however, for Gaboth with one blow had
sunk his stiletto into the abdomen of
his mother-in-law. The cry of the old
woman startled her husband in the next
room, but, the sound not being repeated,
he rolled over in bed and went to sleep
again. GabOth's wife, sleeping with
her mother, made no sign or motion, re-
naming perfectly quiet. The blood
from her mothers wound ran over her,
but Still she did not STIR 1t seems,
therefore, that she was well aware of
what her husband was doing, and it
looks as if she were party to the
plot to murder her own mother.
GabOth stole back again into the room
where old Chinchella slept, and mo-
ment later he thrust the stiletto into
the back of the latter. He meant to end
the old mans life with one blow, but he
missed the vital spot. AS the blow
descended Chinchella gave a cry which
woke up COnoquitO, his son, who was
sleeping with his brother in the next
room. The two brothers armed them
selves and rushed upon the murderer, a
dozen shots were fired, and then Gaboth
fell to the floor dead.

that the defendant wrote the letters
which the plaintiff claimed to have re-

letters. was the plaintiff really led to
believe that he intended to marry her?
The summing up lasted four hours.
Sir Richard Webster explained that
Mrs. Hurlbut had arrived from Paris
and was extremely anxious to give
her evidence in the case. He had
advised her that this could not be done
at the stage which the case had then
reached Whatever might be the result of
the case. Further proceedings must be
taken elsewhere. The jury were absent
tor an hour and a half. When they re-

that no promise Of marriage had been
made. The decision was received with
considerable applause by the large num-
Der OF persons who had gathered in the
court room. The Judge awarded the
costs, and ordered that the documents
in the case be kept in the court.
