AS ABOUT THE FAIR |
A Great Crowd and Races a Card
Which Did Draw.
Some Three Thousand People Who Are
Interested in 1t.
TRoTTINe HORSES MAKE DUST FLY
A Rustling Globe Correspondent Takes in
the Fair and Tells Thereof
Truthful Tale.

BURLINGTON, N. c., Oct. 13.-[Special ]
To-day is the last of the Alamance
County fair now going on here. Yester-
day the sky was clear and the atmos-
phere all that could be desired.
The trains came in packed, but the
numbers they brought were Insignificant
compared with those who came in
wagons, carts buggies, carriages and
every species of vehicle, together with
pretty considerable foot contingent"
This is dry town, and the crowd was
more than ordinarily free from the
'critter" during the day after night a
few toughs filled up to such extent they
could barely get on the night train to
rid the town Of maudling howls and pes
tilential flavor.
The crowd inside the grounds amounted
to between three and four thousand
people, all of whom seemed intensely
interested in the trotting races, the
horses being owned by we'll known and
popular country men. The grand stand
was crowded to its utmost capacity,
largely with ladies whose interest was
manifested by standing up, waving
| bor Of nj
The gate receipts were beyond expec-
tation and will free the association from
any encumbrances.
Exhibits in the ladies department were
more varied and better than in any other.
The display of agricultural products was
not very large, but varied and good. The
canning factories had quite nice exhibit
of corn, tomatoes, peaches and other
fruits and vegetables.
The exhibit of stock was only medium
owing to farmers being too much en-
gagged in saving crops the past month, to
get stock in condition.
A good tobacco exhibit was expected
but the want of a season prevented
stripping and the bringing in of that
promised, very much to the chagrin OF
Captain Ireland, of the Farmers ware
house, who was particularly anxious fol-
a good show in this line
To morrow is the big racing and last
day, and still larger crowd is antici
pated. Homes of citizens are crowded
} with visitors, and the hotel is full.
The Durham warehouses were repre-
sented by Col. Scott Burch, of the Par
rish, and Colonel Sea, of the Banner.

Will we run Yam Farm, and try to
do what is right, it must be admitted
that some times we slip up, as the mas
tiers say, and can not do that which we
should do.
For instance, on our Yam Farm we do
business on the square-and not by the
yard.
Yet W. II. Proctor, the Racket Grocer,
sends us Yam which is about several
yards long, and wants to know what we
propose to do about that.

rounds us, we merely state that at the
hour of going to press we do not pro-
pose TO do much about that.

claims to know that two million five

corruption were practiced in the United

in extent and in the amount of money
used. 1t is said the matter will be fully

omclal Statement Of theCate City
National Bank.


TO THE PUBLIC: The Board of Di-
rectors of the Gate City National
Bank met on the evening of the 9th
inst, for tie purpose of investigating
the cause of the recent heavy run on
the Bank, of examlng into its condi-
ton aud of acting as occasion might
demand.
After an exhaustive examination
they, by resolution, instruct the under
signed officers to announce that they
have accepted the resignation of Mr..
j. G. Kelso as President and Director
! and have elected Mr.. f. w. Mullins,
President and Mr.. w. w. Sanders, of
DeKalb, Texas, Vice-President; that
the run was precipitated by reason of
the closing of the Bank of Magnolia
the private property of Mr.. Kelso-
and the current rumor that Mr.. Kelso
had bankrupted this Bank by alb
sconding with its funds; that the Off
GERS, practically without any notice,
promptly met every demand with the
funds of the Bank, and prompt
ly declined the use of $4,000
kindly rendered them by banks and
individuals to meet the unprecedented
emergency; that the books, accounts,
bills receivable, collaterals, statements
of banks, cash, official bonds of Off
GERS and employers and affairs gener-
ally have been thoroughly examined
by experts appointed for the purpose,
whose report is on file in writing, and
that they also have personally made
searching examination and pronounce
the Bank in excellent condition, ell
dorse the former management as
sound and emphasize that assurance
by promoting their Vice-President and
retaining their Cashier.
OF the private affairs Of their late
President they are in absolute ignor-
ance and their only office is, with the
public, to indulge the hope and belief
that he will adjust his affairs honor
bly,, and to of1iciallr state that Mr.. Kel-
so did not use the assets, credit, name
or influence of the Bank, and that his
financial embarrassment has not even
remotely effected its solvency.
They express their entire satisfac-
ton with the condition of affairs, and
unhesitatingly commend the bank to
public confidence.
This statement is published by or
der of the Board of Directors.

The Alice Mitchell case.

MEMPHIS, July 27.-The ninth days
proceeding in the Alice Mitchell in
sanity inquiry found the defense's
case closed. The State opened its
case by the Introduction of Mrs. w.
II, Nokmar, sister Of Freda Ward.
Witness, after preliminary testimony
concerning actious Of Misses Mitchell
and Johnson during their last visit to
Gold Dust, told of the discovery of
Freda's plan to leave home and join
Alice in Memphis. Freda seemed so
ashamed at it that witness and her
husband promised nOS to mention
the matter again. Alice impressed
her as an extremely wild, hayward
and unladylike girl. There was moth
ing in her conduct to indicate thai she
was mentally unsound,
Ashley Rozelle was next called to
the stand. He said he had met Alice
Mitchell several times. lie had cor
responded with F'reda and Alice.
Witness admitted that the letters lie
wrote to both young ladies were
somewhat ardent. He received the
last letter from Alice a few days be-
fore the killing. He said there had
been no engagement between Alice
and himself, adding that he did not
expect to marry her. Witness, con-
tinuing, said that Mr.. Burlington, of
the defense, had the letters he had re-
ceived from Alice. The letters wire
sent for, but not introduced in to-
days proceeding.
The defendant, Miss Mitchell, was
next placed on the stand, and there
was a great craning of necks by the
audience to obtain a view of her She
suffered no embarrassment, but an
swered all questions coolly and ra-
tloually. She said she had known
Freda ever since she could remember.
The defendant told of her folio ing
Frcda and of the latter's winking at
her with her right eye, which signi-
fed; 81 love you" She told this
coolly enough, but when she came to
following Freda down the hill, saying
"She wanted to see her once more"
she burst into tears. Then followed a
most remarkable scene, unparalleled
in court annals perhaps.
This young girl, without displaying
the slightest remorse, or even nervous.
ness Of manner told, down to the most
trivial detail, the story of how and
why she killed Freda Ward. She said:
81 took the razor out while going down
the hill toward the boat. When |
reached Freda | cut her with the "a
zOr. AS cut her throat
she tried TO say some
thing. | intended to cut Fredas
throat and then mine, but her sister
10 made me mad by striking me with
an umbrella, so, after slashing 10, |
followed Freda and cut her again.
All wanted to do was to cut so as to
kill, loved her better than any one
in the world" She expressed de-
sire to die now that Freda was no
more.
Miss Purnell, who was with Freda
and 10 Ward when the tragedy oC-
Cured, was next placed on the stand,
but no new features were developed.
Gen. Peters then stated that the State
had nothing further to offer, Gen.
Wright said the defense was willing
to submit the case without argument.
Judge Dubose at this time continued
the case until Friday morning, when
he will charge the Jury.
