DIR. WOODS. of the Bowling Green
Courier. demonstrates very Thoroughly
with his gray goose quill that the quail
ity OF gray matter in his honest cranl-
um improves all the time and that age
can not wither nor custom stale his in
finite variety. His response TO Mr..
Watterson's article in answer to his,
stating that the silver editorials of the
Courier-Journal of 10 years ago were
written by Col. Chiffon and that at the
time no one else was concerning him
self about silver, is a very strong one,
presenting as it does documentary evil
dence that John G.. Carlisle. Mr.. Beck
and the Courier-Journal's ownest own,
Mr.. Bynum, were about that time con-
corning themselves very much about
the white metal, the latter in March,
1886, using these words in speech de-
livered in Congress: II am in favor of
the free coinage of silver because be-
lieve it to be palpable violation of the
constitution and the rights of the States
aud the people to restrict the coinage
OF either metal. Silver is the money
of the people" DR.. Woods also shows
as far back as 1892 Mr.. Watterson said
I'VE must stand by silver" Thus
proving that the trail of the silver
serpent once hung over all those who
now deride it.

n LIE OUT.-The INTERIOR JOUR
NAL never publishes anything unles,
it believes it true and is backed by tn,
proof. In our last issue, on the state
ment of a reputable gentleman, We
printed paragraph that Mr.. a. G.
Carmau had stated in his speech at
Turnersville that he was proud that he
voted for Abe Lincoln before he was II
and advised all Negroes TO try TO vote,
whether they succeeded or not. Mr..
Carman was in next day TO say that
while he did make the statement that
he voted for Lincoln illegally, he new
er advised anybody else to break the
laws. Our informant still reiterates
that Mr.. Carman said exactly what we
published and told him that IL he
can not substantiate il by five unim-
peachable witnesses he will admit that
he has lied. II he can-then Mr.. Car
man has, he says, whether he admits Il
or not.
While he was in our Office we took
occasion TO ask Mr.. Carman IL he were
not an anti-free turnpiker and il he did
not vote against the proposition to free
them. He said he did not vote on the
question at all, thus proving that he
was not for frering the pixies, though
he says he believes in the principle.
He also said that he begged and plead
ed with Boss Dawson not TO make any
efforts in that line at the time he did,
as the county was $4,000 in debt and
could not afford TO increase it. After
c. Rankin that the Organizes voted
man for man for free turnpikes, which
carried it, thus trying to throw the
blame on the democrats. Mr.. Carman
would have gotten the nomination for
county judge but for his we'll known
opposition To free pixies. We are find
ing no fault with him, however, on his
position. We hold the same views and
still hold them, but it is rather strange
that party which claims so much
credit for being for free pixies should
man originally so opposed
to them. Right here 1t may be proper
for the benefit of those who are unable
TO get an idea into their skulls that we
were for new election on the pike
question because the other would have
been declared null and void and we will
vote for free pixies next time in order
that the will of the majority may be
carried out and because when one coun-
ty freed its pixies the whole system
was knocked out.

BARN BURNED.--At $50 Friday
night the fire alarm was sounded and
almost instantly the streets were filled
with people, ready and willing to rem
der what services they could. The fire
company got out in hurry and start
ed up Lancaster street at "A break-neck
speed but it was soon discovered that
Mr.. w. NJ. Bright's barn was burning
and the hose wagons were deserted and
the majority of the fire laddies ran to
the scene. The barn, which was IL
miles from town, was filled with hay and
as the flames were under heavy head
way, nothing could be done except save
the fences around and put out the dry
grass that would catch every now and
then. In the barn were 375 bales of
timothy hay and 30 acres Of clover,
valued at $3.50 and upon which Mr..
Bright had made application for insur-
ance TO Agent II. B. Mahony the after
noon before. Besides the hay there
was lot OF farm machinery, harness
and the like and the loss on building
and all is not less than $1,000 to 81, 200.
The origin OF the fire is not known.
Wallace Farmer, who lives on the
place. was in town at the time and
neither he nor Mr. Bright thinks that
the latter has an enemy mean enough
to burn his property, but on the con-
trary both are satisfied that it caught
from spontaneous composition or that
a tramp who was probably sleeping in
IL did the work accidentally. Mr..
Bright is very thankful TO those who
came to his rescue and worked so Dobly |
% save his property.

A DASTAROLY DEED.
NEGRO TRAMP SERIOUSLY CUTS

is Robbed and Then Cut by a Negro
Tramp, Posses After Him.
salisbury WORLDLY

Salisbury WORLDLY
Albert Ray, a guard at the chan gang,
was robbed and then cut by "A negro
tramp this morning.
1t was about 11:30 o'clock while Mr..
Ray, who guards at night, was sleeping
in the tent near the Southern shops, that
n colored man stole stealthily into the
tent and picked up Mr.. Rays watch,
lying upon the table. He went from the
table to Mr.. Ray and began searching
his person. This awakened him and as
he looked up he discovered that the
negro was not, as he had supposed,
trusty, but n strange negro.
He ran his hand into his hip pocket
and as he did so the negro drew q knife
from his pocket. 1t was but the work of
a moment for him to draw the knife
across Mr.. Rays face inhicting two ugly
wounds. one about three inches long
under the left eye and another across
the nose Then he aimed at Rays heart
and a cut three inches long just over the
heart Was the result. Having accom-
plished this much the negro ran through
the tent door with Mr.. Ray, who had
now risen from his couch, following him
pistol in hand. He discharged five shots
at the fleeing figure, but the blood had
blinded his eyes and his aim was untrue.
Ray, now weak from the loss Of blood,
was taken to the tent where Drs. McKen-
zie and Brown attended to his wounds.
His injuries, DIR. Mckenzie tells us,
are quite serious. He will be brought to
town tomorrow.
AS soon as Sheriff Monroe was notified
of the affair he summoned his deputies
and formed two posses, who at 3 O'Clock,
are securing the woods for the negro.

II. G. Dun 4 Co.'s Weekly Review of
Trade says: "While failures were the
smallest ever known in any quarter since
1892, and business payments through
banks the largest by $26S, 100000 ever
known in September, the spectators who
profess anxiety about Cuba, or fever at
the South, or municipal election, still
have some influence. Yet business is still
Increasing. The productive force steadily
enlarges, the distribution Of wages affords
an increasing fund for purchases, and the
foundations are laid for a larger business

ly differed now agree in putting the yield
OF wheat from 5S0,0OO,000 to 500, 900, 900
bushels, which is nearly 200, ,00O, 900 bush
els more than will be required for home
use, keeping stocks as they were July /,
the lowest for seven years. With less
favorable reports of yield, corn exports
fall short slightly, with small difference
In price. Cotton is unchanged in price,
with larger consuming demand, though
big crop estimates do not appear to be
disputed. Building of more vessels ON
the lakes and seacoast, heavy orders for
sheets, bars, rods and pipe have caused
advances averaging half OF per cent on
all classes of iron. Wool has now reach
ed an average Of 20.37 cents per pound,
q rise of 8 cents since year ago, with a
much heavier rise on some qualities. Spec
ulative sales still account for most of the
aggregate. Failures for the week were
213 in the United States, against 296 last
year, and 20,in Canada, against 46 last

DISASTER ON THE SEA.
Appalling Incident of n Hurricane
Ship and Fifty Men Go Down.

The British barkentine st. Peter, before
reported having been passed at sea and
making for Halifax in distress, arrived
there Sunday. She was partly dismasted
in hurricane that struck her on the night
of Sept. 8, compelling her to put about
for Halifax in order to repair the damage.
Capt. Skaling brings the startling re-
port that the storm through which his ves-
sci passed was the cause of sending to the
bottom a four-masted iron sailing ship,
which must have carried crew of at least
forty-fve or fifty men. The st. Peter and
the other vessel had been sailing within
sight Of each other all day Sept. 8, but
never came within hailing distance. The
name of one could not be distinguished
from the deck of the other. When night
closed in the big ship could be plainly
seen from the deck of the st. Peter. Her
lights were in sight for some time after
dark.
Then the hurricane swept the ocean and
on the 9th nothing was to be seen of the
four-masted ship sighted the day before,
but shortly after the barkentine passed
the floating wreck of n ships deck and
deckhouse, which the crew identified as
belonging to their sailing companion of
the pre- eyious day. Capt. Skaling is salts
fed that the other vessel went down with
every man on board
