Make Report.

Senator Marion Butler and Congress
man Shuford and William A. Guthrie
have made their report to the Popu-
list party of North Carolina as it's
delegates to the Memphis Bimetallic
Convention. They say: "The final
outcome of the convention was en-
tirely Satisfactory to us, and the
unanimous adoption of the resolu-
tions is proof conclusive that all
bimetallists-w Populists, DEM
ocrats or Republicans-can and will
unite next year and present solid
and united front to the Democratic
and Republican monomentalists who
are arrayed against the financial relief
proposed in the Omaha platform of
the Populist party and now demand
ed unconditionally by such an over
whelming majority of the entire
American people. Let us extend a
hearty welcome in our ranks to all
men who esteem patriotic duty above
mere old party fealty."

AWFUL CRIME NEAR AURORA.
Young Girl Outraged by a Sunday
School Superintendent

A special from Washington, N. c.
to the Raleigh News and Observer
says:
Mr.. Walter Hooker, of Aurora, this
county, who is a prominent church
man of that village, succeeded in com
mitting rape upon Miss Midyette,
the thirteen year old daughter of Mr..
Benz. Midyette, Friday afternoon,
about three miles from Aurora. He
was apprehended and carried to Idalia
for trial, but on account of the pre-
carious condition of Miss Midyette,
the trial has been postponed. The
doctors state her chance for recovery
is slim. Hooker admits his crime, but
gives no reason for the same. He is
superintendent of the NJ. f. Sunday
School, and man who was looked
upon with the highest respect by that
section OF Beaufort county. Great
excitement prevails, and serious con-
sequences are feared.

for evening wear, are now to the front in

less prominent position up to now, al
though they are by no means desirable for

are expensive. Only In wash leather are

leather gloves arc quite proper with all
