CITY IN RRiEF.

Sheriff Page was out yesterday. but
returned to Morrisville, but was so I'm
well that he said he was sorry he had
ventured out so soon after his recent
attack.
Last Sunday at Louisburg the entire
family of DR.. Meadows and several yisi
tors to the town were poisoned by ice
cream. Several were quite sick for some
time, but no deaths were caused by the
oxide of zine. A gentleman who is now
at the Marlborough was one of those made
sick by the poison.
The following delegates to the conven-
tion took the train yesterday afternoon
for their homes: Messrs. Geo. E. Hunt,
Lexington; Senator Westmoreland,
Townsville; S. H. Williams, Rialto;
@. B. Mashburn, Marshall; Sheriff
Leonard, Lexington; John r. Webster,
Mr.. Banks, correspondent Charlotte OBJ
server; Congressman ". F. Stroud,
Chapel Hill, Editor Cowan, Durham.
Senator Fred B. Rice, of New Hanover,
is here. He arrived after the conven-
ton had adjourned, but there were no
sym, toms of grief on his face. Last
night he said he was for Oliver Dockery
if any sixth district man was to receive
the Republican nomination for governor
and was working in his interest. He
said Russell couldn't carry the Republi-
cans of more than one county in the
district. ''And if he got the nomina-
ton, the negroes would vote solidly
against him. The negroes remember his
saying that they were more fit to adorn
penitentiary cells han to sit in Congress,
and that they all stole six days in the
week and made restitution on Sunday.
If Marion Butler is for him, I'm against
Marion Butler in that particular. Rus
sell is a long distance from the governor
ship. He couldn't be elected to save his
lifeD

The attendance yesterday is variously
estimated. There We're, by actual count,
twenty seven Democratic delegates in at
tendance. There would have been more
but for the pledging resolution that But
Ter forced through. The number OF Re-
pubHcans probably did not exceed thir-
teen, and most of these said, 81 am not
delegate. Just stepped in to see what
our POpulist sheep would do T. was
difficult to estimate the number Of Pop.
ulists. There were not to exceed one
hundred outside of Wake comfy. In
Guiding those from Wake, there were
possibly 230 Populists present, counting
every man present as a Populists whose
politics were not known to the reporter.
Aubrey L. Brooks, of Roxboro, repre-
senting the silver Democrats of Person
county, said to a reporter That he had
come to Raleigh in obedience TO q call
signed by Gov. Carr, Secretary Cooke
and others, and that as a friend Of silver
he felt called upon to go into the con-
ference. That he voted aud worked for
Cookies amendment-llmi the only
issue to silver, but that after that was
killed he would not vote for the resOlu-
tons as passed. He further stated that
Peason county was not only for the free
coinage of silver at the ratio of is 70 1,
but that the numerical pa.centage for
these principles was likewise in the same
ratio Of IS men to one, and that so long
as principle was the watch word that his
people would fight and suffer, i need be,
to relieve the people and restore silver to
its first estate. But that if they had to
compromise a single principle it would
be done in the Democratic ranks.

A SHOCKING ACCIDENT
Resulting i'm the Sad Death OF DIR.
William f.. Richardson.

The news reached Raleigh last night
that DR. VIM. E. Richardson, of Eagle
Rock, died yesterday afternoon at 80
was the result of a horrible accident that
occurred about noon yesterday. DR..
Richardson was experimenting the work
around bis cotton gin when his
hand got caught in band and in
an instant his arm was drawn into the
machinery and torn into shreds. Drs.
Avery, of Eagle Rock, Bell, of Wake
field, and Royster, of Raleigh, were sum-
moned DR.. Avery arriving first. On his
arrival he found the condition of the I'M
fortunate man rapidly growing serious.
He had suffered intensely from the shock
and the loss of blood. Restoratlves were
administered but without avail and before
the other physicians arrived, DR.. Rich
ardson had passed away.
DR.. VIM. E. Richardson was the eldest
son of the late VIM H. Richardson of
Eagle Rock and was one of the best and
most prominent men in the county. He
was an honored member Of the largest
and one Of the most respectable families
in Wake county and was universally
esteemed He was a member of the
Legislature in 1s79Ibeing the only Dem
pcratic elected on the ticket He made
the county an able and safe legislator,
and might have been repeatedly eli oted to
positions of honor, had he so desired.
DR.. Richardson was well equipped
physician but spent the most of his life
ia agricultural pursuits. He was sue
cessful farmer, a valuable citizen, a
Democrat, noble man and Chris
tian gentleman.

enough to go against the Boss.

 RECENT WRINKLE.

The latest wrinkle in the shoe line in worked by Drennen & Co., the mammoth general merchants of this city, who do big business with the country and labor trade They have ordered from the J. B. Lewis company of Boston a large con- signment of shoes. Each shoe will be numbered and with each shoe, corre- spondingly numbered goes an accident insurance policy of $10O. The customer pays s3 for a pair of shoes and gets with 1t this policy, which guarantees him $lO0 indemnity if he gets hurt within three months after the purchase of the shoes, which are guaranteed to last that time, so that two birds are killed with one stone-the purchaser is liable to be out of shoes and insurance policy about the same time and thus desire the renewal of both. The insurance policies are is sued by an insurance company, with whom the J, B. Lewis company has a contract to that end, and will be directly responsible for loss on the same. Dren- nen x Co., say they are going to adyer- tlse the scheme very extensively, and nope, for the furtherance of trade, that the first man to buy pair of shoes will get hurt, so as to receive the $100 on the insurance policy and help the project. It is decidedly the most novel scheme ever introduced in this city, although Birmingham is by no means behind the world in such matters, and bids fair to fill the mines, furnaces and farms in Jeff ferson county with the $3 shoe of the J. B. Lewis company.
