Charlotte News.
On the vestiblue this morniag g
was party of eight, who we're en-
route to Atlanta, to be present at
the marriage of Mr.. Joseph W.
Cooper to Miss Nellie S. Inman.
The Inmans have been closely
identified with the interests of the
South for many years, and are
among the leading society people.
The itinerary who passed through
the city today will go direct to New
Orleans, after the ceremony, and
thence to Chattanooga, vending G
their way north until Asheville l.
reached, where they will spend 6

Campbell, fromed an interesting
group of travellers, who seemed a,

We note with pleasure the sue
cess which the Rocky Mount Mills
have achieved in recent years. They
are just putting in $4,000 additional
spindles, just doubling their capac-
ity, making, as the Argonaut says,
the largest mill in the State and one
of the largest in the South. Our
preference, however, is for smaller
plants, although if well managed q
large plant can be made to earn q
greater per cent profit than a small
one.
The South is making very rapic
progress in milling, and the drift ii
toward US from the North.

Yesterday morning Mrs. B. Bur-

came over to the city to church,
leaving her husband, B. Burnette,
the College street blacksmith, at
home with their three-years- old
child. About II o'clock Mr.. Bur
nette went into the yard, leaving
the child playing about the room.
In few minutes he heard the child
scream and rushing in found the
little ones clothing mass of flame,
having caught from the CRATE fire
Mr.. Burnette caught up a blank.

the child, in an endeavor to smoth'

cessful. Mrs. Burnette WAS called
home by telephone and physician
summoned, and everything posi-
BILE was done to save the child's life
The burns we're go severe, howeve
that the child died at 6 o'clock il

The recent verifcations OF the
predictions in regard to earthquakes
made by Prof. Falb have attracted
much attention in Europe. 1t was
because his calculations had met
with q show of proof on former oc-
casions that his prediction OF the
seismic disturbance that came to
time the other day excited so much
interest. And now that he seems
to have been a prophet as to that
also, his fame is greatly increased.
But his predictions had re-
ceived considerable attention be-
fore that. He has been in the
habit of publishing at the beginning
of each year the davs when earth
quakes may be expected; and so
we'll known in his work that it is
said the miners in Europe have
kept his predictions posted in the
mines The critical days for the
rest of this year, he says, are May
18th, September 10, September
25th, October 25th and November
23rd His calculations are built or
tueory, in which the elements ol
the problem are the supposed
influence of the sun and moon OF
the supposed liquid portion OF tn
| earth beneath the crust.
We suppose the basis OF the the
ory is similar to that of the tides
Whether there be anything in tn
theory or not, the predictions hav
have been fulfilled to such an OK
tent as to make people put on thei
thinking caps.

REDWINE'S SSTATEMENT
He Says Young Cobb jackson Got $50,
600 Of the Gate City Bank Money.

He Says Young Cobb jackson Got 800,
900 Of the Gate City Bank Money.
ATLANTA, Ga, April 18-An even
ing paper prints to-day what is said
to be the substance of statement
made by Lewis Redwine relative to
his dafalcation in the Gate City
National Bank. The substance of
statement made to his own attor-
neys and others, and repeated by
several witnesses before the grand
Jury, is understood to be that Cobb
Jackson, who committed suicide,
obtained from him upward of $780,
900.
The first amount was turned over
to jackson in the summer of 1891,
when he needed money to put into
the Atlantic and Florida Railroad
deal. At that time he received
from $4,000 to $1,000. In Novem-
Der of the same year, it is
claimed, he got $4,000 or $1O,'
900 more to be used partly
for the same purpose and partly te
make bonds in a railroad case
Jackson, it is alleged, would come
TO Redwine and get money, leaving
him his note or check, generally tn
latter, to cover the amount. Mos
of the money was obtained by Jack
son in 1892; none in 1893. Fo
these large sums Redwine had onl
Jackson's paper. This he kept il
his private drawer at the bank, an
before his flight most of it wa
taken out and burned. To cover u
the shortage Redwine would boz
row from other banks and held OF
deposits in making up the account
of his cash.
Il The above is, of course, on]
based upon the statement made t
Redwine, and, as before intimate
there may be evidence which woul

over the discovery that the Earl of
Craven is tattooed man. He has
his family coat arms tattooed on
his breast. If he gets lost or strays
away, he is so indelibly marked that

tell them that any supply beyond
