A MURDERER HANGED.
DAN GILCHRIST FOR KILLING HIS
FATHER.IN LAW.
The Execution Was Private and Took
Place i'm q Pine Forest-Partic-
ulars of the Horrible Crime

ROCKINGHAM, y. e., Jan. Dam
iel Gilchrist, colored, was hanged
here today for the murder of his faith
er-in-law, Frank Mckay, on the night
of February 9th, 1893.
The execution was private and took
place in an enclosure in the pine for
est just below the Jail, on the same
gallows which was erected for the
execution of Tony Rogers last year,
who died just few days before the
one appointed for his execution.
The gallOwS was enclosed by plank
walls some twenty feet high, enclos-
ing space about twenty feet square.
Inside this enclosure none were adj
mitted except the officers, ministers,
physicians and such witnesses as the
sheriff desired.
The crime for which Gilchrist was
hanged was a brutal and diabollcal
one. According to the evidence adj
duced at his trial at the September
term of the Superior court he wilfully
and deliberately murdered his father
in-law, Frank Mckay. by striking
hrm on the head with an axe, Telling
him to the ground, after which he
struck him two more blows, battering
up his head fearfully. Gilchrist was
27 years old and leaves a wife an6
children.

THE VIEWS OF DR.. BRIGGS
HELD BY PRESBYTERIAN MIS-
SIONARY
Rev. NJ McGilvary Resigns and w. 1
Leave Slam- Son of a North
CaroIiniaH

The Statesyille Landmark has re-
ce:ved information that Rev. Evander
McGiIvary, Presbyterian missionary
to Siam, has resigned as a missionary.
The reason for this action is that Mr..
McGilyary holds the views of DR..
Charles +. Briggs, whose trial for
heresy aud subsequent expulsion from
the PreSby terian church by the Cen
eral Assembly. are still fresh in the
minds of all.
Before Mr. McGilvary went to tie
foreign fields he imbibed the views
DR.. Biggs, and after the result of the
latter'S trial, concluded that he coulC
no longer consistently remain in the
church, and therefore rendered his
resignation, which was promptly ac-
cepted.
Mr.. McGilvary is a son of Rev. D. Q.
McGilvary, ID. D., a native of North
Carolina. who for many years has Ia
bored in the mission field of Siam un-
der the direction of the Presbyterian
church. This action on the part of
his son is source of grief to the
father who hoped for his mantle,
after he passed away, to fall upon the
sons shoulders, The younger McGii
vary is very highly educated man.
He graduated at Princeton fheOlog-
ical Seminary, and obtained schot-
arShip. About three years ago, hay-
ing completed his education, he was
married to young lady in New Jer-
sey, and Immediately thereafter left
for Siam. Now that he has resigned, he
will return to this country, but what
he purposes doing is not yet known,
and he doubtless has not decided for
himself.

The Suggested Tax ON Bachelors.

From the Chicago Record
The nlygood reason why a bache-
lor should be taxed any more than a
married man would be that a bache-
lor is in some way undesirable-lik
a grogshop-and deserves to be
frowned upon by the authority OF
law. His singleness, which may be
but the determination to refrain
from the matrimonial mistakes OF
his neighbors, would tie punished.
Supposing him to have made many
earnest efforts to get married ard to
have been refused all around, he
would still have to pay $40 a year
for continuing in a state he did not
choose. 1t is patent that the bache
lor tax will have the support of none
but women and few envious men.
Most of the men in Congress are
husbands, but they will not forget
themselves SO far as to tamper with
the feelings of 6,O0O,0 O,0O0able bodied,
ballot casting bachelors.

A DEPUTY SHEREFF,S WIFE
Stolen by Norfolk and Western
Conductor

From the Bluefeld (W. Va.) Journal.l
One of the most exciting times our
trainmen have known happened on
the eastbound train Monday night.
which arrives here from Welch at
about 6 O'Clock.
1t serms that on Sunday Capt.
Sam Ludy. conductor of the Norfolk
and Western wreck car, at this place,
took possession of Deputy Sheriff
Vim. Means wife at Dingess, W Va,
on the Norfolk and Western railroad,
below Welch.
They stayed all night at Welch and
had their baggage checked Tor Bran
well on Monday evenings train
Before arriving at Bramwell they
changed their minds and had their
baggage checked for Pocabontas and
then for Graham. All was working
sengers, until VIM. Means. who was
in waiting at Graham, made his ap-
pearance, and Capt. Ludy made his
rapid exit at the other end of the
car, leaving the spoils to the victor,
amounting to one overc 0at and grip
and two boxes of cigars. Means was
armed with one or two revoiyers and
a large bowie kniie, and had blood in
his eyes. Not being able to capture
Ludy he proceeded to his wife with
pistol and then with knife, when
some one pulled the bell cord, bring
ing the train to ii halt, and Capt E.
l.. Bsdly, conductor, to the scene.
He only prevented the tragedy by
threats of arrest, and secured the
knife He guarded Means to this
place, and Means and his wife put up
at the Inn. Means was SO wrathy
that Detective Bob Baldwin had to
be called in to keel. him from doing
further violence 10 her.
Capt. Ludy rode the blind baggage
to the overhead bridge, and when the
train slowed up, made his escape.
Means has a reputation for t,rav-
cry. and evidently had the purpose
o killing both Capt. Ludy and his
own wife Further trouble was eX-
pected yesterday, but no further
Developments in the case have

WHAT is ECONOMY?
"I'enDy Wise and Pound Foolish" is
not Good Business Policy.

From the Greensboro Recordl
Economy is desirable practice and
all men should train themselves to it's
proper observance. But there is
trite though very old saying about
wasting at the burg and saving at
the spigot." True economy does not
always consist of doing wiLnout some
thing, nor of purchasing articles that
cost less money.
1t is not economy in business man
to save the c,.St of an advertisement
in his home papers, nor is there econ
0my IN employing d S23 man to DO work
that requires the skill of S15 man.
Many good business has been driven
to the wall and crushed by the eXer-
else of such false economies as the
above, and many business houses that
are now tOttering ald likely at any
time to fall, could be saved by judi
ciOus advertising and the employment
OF competent attaches Instead OF the
underpaid and inefficient help now
used because of their SO-called cheap
ness. Every notably successful bus1
ness man known in the commercial
world, has borne testimony to the
prime Importance Of liberal advertis-
ing. many of them by voluntary ex-
preston, all Of them by their liberal
use of printers ink, and they have
also, by payment of liberal salaries.
secured the best men to be obtained
in their respective lines of business
No successful business man has ever
been parsImonious in matters pertain
ing to his business, no matter how
much so in personal or family mat
ters. Though he might STINT himself
in wearing apparel, or even
some food, the demands of his busi-
ness have been promptly and literally
met, because it was true economy to
do SO.
Very much of this is applicable to
the business men of Greensboro and
Winston Salem tool The same rules
that apply to business elsewhere, ap-
ply here. The man who does not adj
vertise, but depends for his patronage
upon such people as stumble over his
place of business, cannot complain II
customers do not find him.
The man who selects for his help
such as cannot get employment else
where, and hence are compelled to
work for starvation wages, need not
be surprised that they take no inter
est in his business.

FELL IN THE FLAMES.
Was Burning Brush and Lost His
Balance-Badly Burned

From the Greensboro Record, Jan s..
Rev. w. B. Tidball, who was so bad
ly burned at his farm near Wilkesboro
last week, arrived here last night.
He was able to walk to carriage in
waiting with the assistance of two
persons, though he is very feeble. His
left side, from the neck to his feet, is
badly burned and he suffers greatly.
The accident came about in this
way: He was burning brush in the
field some distance from the house.
While the fire was at its highest he
went near it with pole to keep the
em5ers together, probably to prevent
its spreading.
In some way he lost his balance and
fell in. He managed to roll out and
away from the burning pile and by
relief.
1t was narrow escape and his re-
covery will necessarily be slow.

His Train.
Engineer John Patterson, of the
East Tennessee, Virginia and Geor-
gia, had a shocking experience a few
nights ago, and as he thought, mar
rowly escaped a horrible head-end
collision.
While moving along at a rapid rate
he suddenly .beheld big glaring head
light directly in front of him. Quick
IL he reversed his engine and came to
halt hoping to save himself and pas
sengers, whose lives had been put in
his care. Trembling with fear, he
looked forward to the approaching
headlight. 1t seemed to be standing
still. While rejecting to see if he
had overlooked his orders, he discov-
cred that what he thought was q
headlight was only the moon emerg-
ing from the dim outline of the east
ern horizon.
1t is said that he asked the fireman
to kick him three times, then pulled
the throttle wide open and ran into
Midway at Nancy Hanks gait.
