inlaw, Albert Foust, (both colored),

THAT ASSIGNMENT ACT.
Q l. e r X SATTERFIELD AND
BROWN INDICTED.
There are Seven Counts Against the
Former-The Bills Say That They
Both Knew the Act Had Never
Passed Either of the Houses.


Saturday afternoon the grand
jury of Wake Superior Court
returned true bills against s. P. Sat
terf1eld, principal clerk of the lower
house Of the last Legislature, and j..
w. Brown, Engrossing Clerk, for fraud
in connection with the assignment
act. Three witnesses were before the
grand jury, these being Chief-Clerk
Bachelor of the Department of State,
State Librarian Ellington, and r. l..
Smith, member of the lower house
from Stanly.
There are seven counts in the in
dictment against Satterf1eld. One
charges that he wilfully, knowingly,
cOrruptly, and fraIdulently delivered
to Brown the assignment act, the
same never having been passed by
either house, but having been tabled
prior to the date when thus delivered.
Another count charges that Satter-
ield violated the true intent and
meaning of his oath, by delivering for
enrolment an act which had never
been passed, and that fact was well
known to Brown. The other counts
set forth the; offence in different
forms.
The bill against Brown has severa al
counts, and finds that he corruptly,
fraudulently, and knowingly enrolled
the bill which never passed.
Papers will be issued for both Brown
md Satterfield, and they will be regu-
arly taken under it and brought to
Raleigh and required to give bond to
Hhe Sheriff for their appearance at
The January term of court. Failing
30 do this, they will go to jail.

MET DEATH ON THE RAIL.
A Poor Woman Goes to Her Long
Home via the Liquor Route.

Another tragedy was recorded Sat-
urday night when death claimed poor,
wandering Annie Wilson for his own.
1t was another case when reason was
supplanted by that vile stuff called
whiskey.
a short time ago lone woman
went to High Point and gave her
name as Annie Wilson. No one in
the town knew her, and she seemed to
care for nothing more than drink and
debauchery.
Saturday she was drinking more
than usual, and threatened to end her
life. She remarked to some one about
night that she would meyer see anoth-
er sunrise. Shortly after dark, in
company with man, she started
down the railroad. They had gotten
about mile and a half or two miles
from High Point (going South) when
they were met by the North bound
train. The engineer says she jumped
on the track, but the man who was
with her pulled her off. She then
waited until the train was only few
yards from her when she threw her
self upon the track again and was
run over by the train, her body
beingbadly mangled and torn.

A DELIGHTED AUDIENCE.
SAM JONES LECTURE ATGREENS-
BORo, MONDAY NIGHT.
Ee Talked of the Shams and the
Genuine in Religious, Political
and Social Life-Sayiugs Gull

ed From the Lecture.
Together with about dozen other
Winstonites we ran down to Green's
boro Monday night to hear Sam Jones'
lecture. The warehouse in which the
lecture was delivereG@wa we'll filed
and there must have been at least two
thousand people in attendance. The
general admission price was so cents
and reserved seats were IS cents. So,
the occasion must have been quite
profitable for Mr.. Bagby's church, to
which the net proceeds went.
Sam was introduced to the large
audience by Presiding Elder Carraway
and the speaker said whenever he was
introduced to an audience in kindly
way he was reminded of the old col
ored woman who told him he preached
the most like niger of any white
man she ever heard and while he had
a white skin she was sure he had a
black heart. She meant kindly.
The speaker did not cnnfine himself
strictly TO the subject of ''Sa wciety,"
but spoke chiefly of the sham and
the genuine in religious. political
and social circles. and for about an
hour and three quarters hurled forth
chunks of wisdom and flashes of wit,
to the delight of his audience.
SOME OF SANS SAYINGS.
Presbyterians beat the world in
staying there, but are afrain they
can't get there. Methodists beat the
world getting there, but they don't
stay there-they get back before
breakfast.
The preachers ARE all good, but
some of them are so good they are
good for nothing.
Some folks put preacher in an ice
box and keep him there all the year
and then cuss him because he don't
sweat.
A half truth is like half brick
only fit to knock fools down with.

for him. it's sign he wants to lay

Foolishness is the stuff you rub fools
with. Takes heap of it to go round,
too.

ball is philosopher and gentleman

VICTORY FOR WINSTON.
DECISION FILED IN THE CIGAR
ErTE MACHINE CASE.
The Suit was Brought by Bonsack
Machine Company Against w. F..
Smith & Son-Piaintiffy Must
Pay Costs-A Death Blow.

Smith & Son-PiaintifTs Must
Pay Costs-A Death Blow.
Winston has won again,
Judge Simonton says the Winston
cigarette machine is not an infringe
ment on the Bonsack patent.
The suit was brought last year by
the Bonsack Machine Co. and the
American Tobacco Company against
W. f. Smith & Son, of this city, the
object of which was to secure an in
junction against the Winston firm,
thereby preventing them from using
the cigarette machines made by the
Winston company.
The trust people set up the plea that
the Winston machine was an infringe
ment on the Bonsack patent.
The trial came up before Hon Chas
H. Simonton, United States Dis
trict Judge, at Asheville, on the 10th
of last July. 1t required three days
to hear the case. 1t is generally re-
garded to have been the most i'm
portant trial of the kind that has
ever come up in North Carolina.
Messrs. w. f. Smith s. Son, the de-
PENDANTS, received the following tele-
gram today from the court clerk at
Asheville:
SIN case of Bonsack Machine Com
pany VS.. w. f. Smith & Son, the
Judge has ordered the bill dismissed
with costs"
This means that the Bonsack eco
pie or the tobacco trust must pay the
cost OF the suit which, it is estim l5ed,
will be something like $50, 900 or s4O,-
00O
Col. Smith aud his son, Sterling,
were wearing proud smiles today over
their victory. They are receiving
the congratulations of the people,
who are free to express the opinion
that tie decision of Judge Simonton,
which was filed this morning, will be
another severe blow to the trust.
Col. Smith said he was happy to say
that he had whipped the biggest
things ia the country-Ronsack Ma
chire Company and American Tobac
co Trust.

Sudden Death OF a Minister.

Rev A. L. Crawford, pastor the
Presbyterian church at Taylorsville,
dropped dead Sunday morning. He
had been complaining a little the
past week, but was up after breakfast
Sunday morning. He went out to the
well and got bucket of water, and
did several other turns about the
house. He was sitting upin the room
with his wife and daughter, Mrs.
Irwin, and arose to get something
from the mantel, when he fell over on
the hearth with his head in the fire
place, dying instantly. Rev. Mr.
Crawford was something more than
10 years of age and formerly lived al
Chester, S. c., and Lexington, N. @
He was buried at TaylOrsyille yester-
day afternoon.
