to carry gun, not expecting that any
newspaper man would ever know any
thing about it. That's where he was
mistaken. a newspaper man not only
found it out, but he printed it. and
the brave Texas Senator and his armed
body guard became the butts upon
which the ridicule which had been ac-
cumula.ing on account of certain more
or less absurdprecautions which had
been taken at the white House and the
Capitol to keep out men feared to be
upon murder bent, was poured without
stint. The Texas Senator, be it known

came unt Saturday afternoon, when
young Mills with disheveled hair and

and.asked that the permit issued to

The community is excited over the
finding of the dead body of Mr. Henry
Frost lying in a road in the northeas-
tern corner of Iredell county yester-
day morning. Young Frost's father,
Mr.. J f. Frost, lives in Dayie county,
and it appears that the young man
left home Sunday evening, presuma-
bly, to go to see his girl Nothing
more was known of him until about
9 O'Clock next morning, when he was
found dead in the road. A pistol was
lying near the dead mans body, ap-
parently as it had dropped from his
hand. The cOFot er's examination
found that the victim had come TO his
death by a bullet fired from d pistol
in his own hand. The ball entered
the left eye and ranged straight to-
ward the back Of his head. The left
side of his face was slightly burned.
Nothing is known of the shooting eH-
cept the report of pistol was heard
late Sunday evening. The young man
was about twenty years old, was sober
and had about fourteen dollars on his
person.
