COL. BROWNS SUICIDE.
Or. Josenh Graham Says There Was
no Doubt of his Insanity.

Charlotte Observer
Not until yesterday did any one out
side of his family and physician DR..
JOS Graham, know the serious condi-
ton he was in. That his mind was
badly affected, his family and physi-
clan knew. He suffered agony with his
head. Often, when sitting in his room
he would suddenly clap his hands over
his head and exclaim, ooh! my head,
my head" and would then begin pac-
ing the floor in perfect frenzy.
Drs. Graham and Jones advised Mrs.
Brown to take Col Brown away where
he would have change of scene and per
feet rest. He went to Winston and re-
manned several weeks with his broth
err, Mai. II. j. Brown. While there he
frequently exhibited signs of insanity,
and his brother and sister were greatly
alarmed about him. He was very anx-
ious to go to his office Saturday, but
his family persuaded him that he was
not able to work.
Yesterday morning, as he seemed
very much brighter, Mrs. Brown
agreed to let him go to his Office. He
came up about $3.50 or 10 O'clock with
his son, Mr.. Morrison. He spoke pleas
antly to different friends he met along
the way. When he got to the Office he
spent several hours in his room look
ing over papers that had accumulated
during his long absence.
He sent his son Morrison To the
bank, and went to Willman's and
bought pistol for 1913, and ordered
it loaded. He promised to send check
for the amount. Returning from the
bank, Mr.. Morrison Brown saw his
father was not in his Office, and felt in
stinctively that something was wrong.
He went Immediately to the toilet
room in the backyard. AS he push
| ed the door open he found that his
fears were realized. There on the
floor, partially leaning against the
wall, was his father, the blood flowing
from wound in his head, and q pistol
in his hand. Mr.. Brown called to sew
eral farmers who were in the back lot
to come to him. They helped him car
ry his father out OF the house, and lay
him on the ground. Mr. Brown ran in
to the law building to tell the lawyers
of the terrible occurrence. In a mo-
| ment the greatest excitement prevail

SHARP TACTICS IN KENTUCKY.

Recently the Republican leader in
Louisville, Ky, was charged with nav
ing registered as a Democrat in the
late election. Here is his explanation:
Yes. ! am registered as Democrat.
This was done by the order of the cam
paign committee. A circular letter
was sent out all over the State. in
structing Republicans to register as
Democrats for the purpose of throw
ing the Democrats off their guard and
therby making them think they had
an easy thing. The letter was signed
by DR.. Hunter The same plan was
worked in the EvansMcDermott race,
and was successful. In accordance
with these instructions several thou
sand Republicans in Louisville, and
thousands throughout the State, regis
tered in this way
1t is perhaps too much to expect that
INSCRIPTIONS politicians will refrain
from practices of this character. but it
is u sorry commentary upon the moral
status of Kentucky Republicans that
the man who is the author of this
trick, worthy of ward heeler,s should
be the party's nominee for the United
States Senate. But il isn't much worse
to practice this method of getting
goods under false pretences than the
method Of deception that prevailed
under the name of Reform" in North
Carolina

THE CUMNOCK FUND.

The local committee think that SUI
ficient money has now been collected
to prevent any suffering by the Wild
ows and orphans whose husbands aud
fathers were killed by the Cumnock
mine disaster The News and Obser-
yer thanks all its subscribers for heir
generous response TO the appeal made
in the name of common humanity. All
the money received by this paper was
deposited with Mr.. John T. PulIen,
cashier of the Raleigh Savings Bank,
and by him turned over to the local
committee.
The prompt action OF the people of
the State shows that the North Caro-
lima people are ever ready to respond
to any call for suffering mankind. If
it had been necessary to secure more
funds, twice as much could easily have
been raised. Those who have been
hlped are grateful; who have been
generous are gratified that their gifts
have brought warmth and food and
comfort to those III need.

Mr.. 10. Brown, of Mallard Creek, had
staunched the flow of blood by hold
ing his handkerchief to the wound.
Mrs Smith, who lives next door to the

thus he lay until ne was carried into

The news went quickly over the city,
and in very few minutes people were
running toward the law building and

ing thereto. Policemen were station
ed ut the doors keeping the crowd

Col. Brown was unconscious from thc
moment he fired the fatal shot. He
was carried into his Office, and Drs.
Graham and Gibbon probed for the
ball.
The ball entered the skull about two
inches from the right ear. II split,
part of it lodging under the skin; the
other piece going through his brain,

night could not tell just where. MI

minute would be his last, but at the
present hour Go o'clock he is still
alive, and is breathing better.
DR. Joseph Graham said last night at
~ o'clock that he might live unit!
morning. When asked if there was
any possible chance of his recovery, he
said it would be nothing less than q
miracle. DR.. Graham found yesterday
in his examination that the brain It's
sures were badly diseased, and that
part of the brain had grown to the
skull. There was no doubt, he said, of
Col. Browns insanity, physical dis
order affecting his brain.
The law building was kept open all
night, and the lawyers who had given
up business and everything TO minister
to the stricken member of their body
kept watch, relieving each other in
turns.

his legal associates. Attoney-General
Osborne said yesterday, there was

WHEN LAST SEEN.

Mr.. j. ID. Mccall was the last person
who saw Col. Brown before he fired
the fatal shot. Mr.. McCalfs Office is
on the ground floor in the law build
ing. About l o'clock he saw Col.
Brown go out of the back door of the
office, and toward the toilet room.
He got almost to the door, and then
came back toward the house, but
stopped suddenly about half way, and
put his hand to his head and scratched
his head He then turned quickly
and walked very rapidly toward the
toilet room.
Mr. Mccall left the building as Col.
Brown about reached the door of the
house, so he did not hear the shot, nor
did any one in the building.
Col. Brown is an elder in the First
Presbyterian church. He is regarded
as one of the purest Christians of the
city. That he should have come to
such a terrible end is shock to
family, church and city in general.
Possibly before this has left the press,
he will have entered into the city
where all is bright; where reason is
not beclouded, and sin and death is
no more.
