HENDERSON LETTER.
Items of News Gathered by a Globe Cor
respondent.

HENDERSON, Feb. 25.-There was a
horse race here yesterday over the leavis
track between E. n. Jackson's sorrel
filly and a horse owned by drover
named Hutton, for 800 The horse won
easily, coming around the track to the
pole some fifty yards ahead.
Mr. Rufus P Reavis, a farmer about
30 years old, living some five miles from
town, fell down the steps here last night
and bruised his skull so badly that the
attending physicians, Drs. J. II. Tucker
and W. T. Cheatham, express the opinion
that he will certainly die.
Business in the circuit court is being
transacted with reasonable dispatch, and
the criminal docket will be finished this
week
Most of the stock has been taken to
buy a first class outfit for The Tomahawk,
after which there will be no hitch in the
publication.
The alliance men who organized the
third or peoples party here, are proud
they were the first in the state to take
action, and are waiting the action of the
ST. Louis convention, now in session.
Work on our Main street is about COM
pleted, and it is now a slightly and good
thoroughfare.

WYLOE CONVICTED



The Greensboro Record says: The case
of State vs., Geo. II. Wylde, for bigamy,
was decided by the jury last evening in
about twenty minutes He was found
guilty, and this morning the Judge SEN
fenced him to five years in the peniten-
tiary
BY counsel new trial was asked for,
but Cverruled by the judge. Then an APP
peal was prayed to the supreme court,
which was granted. The bond was placed
at 81 900 An effort was made 10 have it
fixed at $500, but Judge Whitaker de
clined to crafty the counsel.
The verdict is in full accord W tn pub
lie opinion as formed and expressed after
hearing the evidence, and had the judge
been more liberal with the criminal and
given him the full benefit of the law-ten
years-it would have been more pleasing
to the people.
When a man comes into community
and is taken into the confidence of the
churches and puts himself upon higher
moral plane than his fellows, in order
that he may traduce virtuous woman,
and bring sorrow upon the worthy wife
and children, whom he deserted in En-
gland, a term in the penitentiary, for
any length of time, would be a mild pun
ishment for such a self confessed villain,
as his letters, read in evidence, show
Wilde To he.
