Why he Was Transferred

CHARLOTTE, II. c., June 10.
considerable excitement was
caused in this city today when
it was learned that Signal of
ficer Byron Fl. Bronson had
been transferred from Charlotte
to Duluth. Mimi. The mere
fact of his removal was not the
cause of this excitement, but
from the fact that accompany
ing his removal was a letter
from the signal officer in Wash
ingtOn stating that a prominent
official of the government in
his city had notified the war
department that Mr.. Bronson
was not in sympathy with the
administration, and that he was
afiiliating with the democrats;
therefore, he was hurtful to the
republican party in this State.
This officials name has Oeen
suppressed because it may do
damage to the party in power,
and might bring on a personal
controversy, which the govern
ment is trying to prevent. Mr..
Bronson has been fully exoner-
ated by the department of war,
but is allowed no redress what
ever. which he thinks, is moth
ing more than just.
The citizens Of Charlotte are,
with one accord, down on the
official that furnished this biased
story. and will send some
strong letters to the department
showing in unmistakable terms
that during Mr.. Bronson's stay
in thus city, which covers d
period of two years, that he has

Cartridge IN The CT ndy

A peculiar explosion of candy
occurred at the old Randolph
homestead, near Mount Horeb,
Nd, Tuesday. Mrs. Priscilla
Randolph had just returned
from a visit to Washington ID.
c., bringing with her a FIVE
pound box Of candy which she
had purchased. She passed the
candy around among the chill
dren and was eating some her.
self when her teeth struck a
hard substance.
In a second there was an ex-
plosion. which shattered her
teeth, tore away part of her
neck and otherwise disfigured
her face. Mrs. Randolph lies
in a critical condition, and if
all the particles of copper are
not discovered and removed,
blood poisoningor lock jaw will
undoubtedly set in. 1t is be-
lieved a small cartridge was
concealed in the candy.
