TRAGEDY AT LINCOLNTON.

Mr.. 8. T. Pender, general freight and
passenger agent of the Carolina and
North Western railroad, met death in a
tragic manner at Linclonton, N. c., last
Thursday at about 4 O'Clock.
From members of the crew of the
southbound passenger train on Thursday
night, the reporter learned that the acci-
dent was the result of an attempt to board
the northbound freight train just as it
was pulling out of Lincolnton. 1t seems
that Mr.. Pender seized the iron handrail-
ing of the passenger coach in the usual
manner; but, in some way, missed his
purpose and his foot was mashed under a
truck wheel. Next, just exactly how
was not fully explained, he was caught,
probably, in the brake rigging, and drag
ged some distance to guard rail, where
bis body was whirled around in such a
way as to throw him directly under the
trucks. A portion of his head was crush
ed off and death ensued instantly. The
body was prepared for burial at Lincoln
ton and taken to Lenoir on the same train
by which he was killed. The interment
took place yesterday.
Mr.. Pender was only recently appoint
ed to the position he was holding on the
Carolina and North estern, and had,
consequently, been unable to build up an
extensive acquaintance along the line.
He is said, however, to have been rail-
road man of experience and ability. He
was about 40 years of age. and leaves
widow and several children. The be-
reaved family resides at Lenoir, NC.

Easter Sunday-WOrk OF tne rAriuerb-
How the Sick Are Progressing.
Correspondence Of the Yorkville Enquirer.
HoopTowN, April 2.-Sunday morn
ing dawned clear and bright, and while
rather cool, it was one Of the most beau
tiful days of the season. All nature
seemed exultant over another opportuni-
ty of commemorating Easter" and
man, the highest and most favored Of all
Gods creatures, would have been an in
crate indeed had he not been in harmony
with the "newness of life," 80 generally
manifested in all the profusion of nature,
in its most beautiful season-spring. Rev.
Thacker preached very appropriate ser
mon at Shady Grove, from Matthew
xviii. 6: He is not here: for he is ris-
en-, as be said, come see the place where
the Lord lay"
With fair weather and nothing to re-
tard their progress, the farmers have pre-
pared most Of their lands and have plan
ted a considerable portion of the cotton
crop as we'll as good part Of the early
corn. Early cotton and corn are coming
up in places, in spite of the cool snap /;
but rain is beginning to be needed to
bring up what is being planted now and
to facilitate the preparation Of the balance
of the lapd.
An infant son Of Mr.. and Mrs. j. Rut-
land Mickle died on the 18th instant,
after short illness, with whooping cough,
the immediate cause of its death being
convulsions. In this sad dispensation OF
Providence, the bereaved have the sym
pathy of the entire community.
Mr.. John E. Bankhead's 14-months-old
babe is quite i'll with whooping cough,
which through the medium Of the school,
has been pretty generally scattered here.
The school has had its ranks greatly
thinned but quite number of the cases
are recovering sufficiently to return to
their studies.
Master George Wallace, who has had
such tedious illness with fever, is con-
valescing nicely.
It seems that Mr.. John J. Wallace is
getting to be somewhat Of truck farmer.
He planted this spring ne-half bushel Of
northern onion sets.

Judge Fuller, of the United States
supreme court, has granted Temporal
ry injunction against further proceed
ings in setting off or establishing the
new county Of Bamberg. The allega-
ton of the complaint is to the effect
that the proposed division is to be
made III violation of the constitution
of the United States, in that all the
people interested have not been al
lowed to express themselves in regard
to the matter. Although there seems
to be no question of the fact that as a
matter of right and justice the posi-
ton is we'll taken, as to whether it
will hold as matter of law, we are
afraid is rather doubtful. If it does
hold, however, the new county busi-
ness in this state will have received
it's quietus.

There is a hot municipal campaign
going on in Charlotte, and The Observer
is suffering so much on account Of de-
mands for space at the hands of "Vox
Populi," "a Citizen" "Public Veal"
and the balance of them, that it is forced
to decline the publication of any more
except over the sigma
lures of the writers. We have no doubt
that the gentlemen mentioned will kick
vigorously at the stand The Observer has
taken but if they would reason little
they should be able to see not only that
the paper is justified in requiring them to
assume full responsibility for their opin-
ions; but it is entitled to thanks for not
assessing them at so much line.

GUESSING1 CONTEST
Of the Cranford Mercantile Company.
 Jasper-A Lively and Very Interest,", ss ing Occasion, II.


 The Jasper Eagle contains the follow ing interesting guessing contest of the Cranford Mercantile company:ef ss'ei ta
 The guessing contest of the Cranford Mercantile company closed on the 31st.
 It was by far the liveHest and most in teresting thing of the kind ever iuau- gurated in Jasper. etee-, ,4c ;
 The guessers numbered away up in the, hundreds, and were not confined to Jasper and Walker county, butt many liv- ing in adjoining counties participated,
 There were four prizes, all valuable ones The first was a handsome top- buggy; the second, a valuable set of oak furniture third, double barrel breech- loading shotgun; fourth, handsome rocking chair. The contest begun Au-- gust and closed December ST. 7sn '1s7
 The plan of the contest was that each person who purchased for cash from them the amount of s5 worth of goods or paid cash to that amount on account was entitled for every $5 so traded or paid, one guess at the amount of money. that would be collected by the company in the months of October, November and December. In order that all might have an idea on which to base their calcula- ions, the amount collected for the corre- spending three months of 1895 was given, which was a grand total of $1S 559. .66. There were no blanks. Every person who traded or paid as much as $5 in the six months of the contest was allowed a guess.
 AS stated above the contest closed at the close of business on Dec. Ion New Years morning the interest in who would be the lucky guesser was at fever heat. The bookkeeper balanced up his cash book and found that the collections of the company for the three months was the magnificent sum of BPS, 150.94, which was sworn to by him as being correct
 The next thing then was to find out the four nearest guessers. This was left to disinterested committee, composed of Messrs T. L. Long, of Jasper; J. A. Douglas, of Cordova; Allen Romine, of Winston county; Hamp Masters, of Chickasaw, and B. w. Day, of -Oakman.. Each guess had been carefully recorded and the committee diligently went over the long list, when it was ascertained that MT. James E. Burton, of East Walker, was the winner of the first prize--the top buggy-his guess being BPS, 90, within cents of the exact amount. He only had in one guess.
 MT. w. H. Moore, of this place, won the second prize-set oak furniture.
 The third prize,a breech-loading shot gun, went to MT. J. D. Rutledge, of Nary lee >a'4'.'A4f''' e-'.ss
 The handsome rocking-chair went to MT. Henry Deason. of near town.
 There were over hundred guesSes within less than s1O0 of the amount and neither of the prize winners missed it more than three or four dollars.
 The success of the Cranford Mercantile company has been phenomenal. Begin ming few years ago with Very modest means they have grown and reached out after trade until now they have the larg- est mercantile establishment in West Alabama, and their customers extend in- to Winston, Cullman, Tuscaloosa, Fayette and Marion counties And still they. grow! .''''''i-4'1' ~ ''"f
