HENRY GEORGE DEAD.
SUPPOSED HE HAD A STROKE
OF APOPLEXY.
The Summons Came Suddenly Friday
Morning-Found in a Dying Con-
dition-Passed Away Without
Regaining Consciousness.

NEW YORK. Oct. 29.-Henry George
died at O'Clock this morning, in room
No %, at the Union Square hotel.
The cause of his death was, proba-
bly,, apoplexy.
He retired late last night, after ad-
dressing several large meetings Mrs.
George, Henry George, Jr., and the
doctor were present.
About 3 o'clock this morning, Mrs.
George was awakened by a convulsive
movement of her husband. He was
moaning family. Jumping up she
fouId him in dying condition. She
Immediately rang for the night clerk
aud doctor arrived in twenty min
utes. Everything possible was done
for ''the leader of Jeffersonian Democ-
racy" in the municipal campaign,
despite of which he passed away with
out regaln1ng consciousness.
Henry George was not old. but was
OF an extremely sensitive nature and
those who knew him we'll feared he
was overworking himself. At times
he has been incoherent during the
campaign. His whole temperament
had undergone a com plete change. He
had not been strong for three years.
He delivered three speeches last
night.
Particularly within the past few days
his close friends have noticed with
apprehension marked changes in his
appearance and. manner. His eyes,
beaming upon the masses with whom
he was clearly in touch, grew dull;
little wrinkles came at the corners of
his eyes which were sunk in hOl-
low caverns; his voice was querulous,
and he seemed like one whose nerves
we're so highly wrought they might
snap without warning.
At the outset of the campaign he
endeavored to see everybody who call
ed at his home, but his friends found
this too much for him and took him
to the hotel and established Gordon
Of sentinels about his headquarters.
This caused some complaint that
plain, honest, open hearted and frank
De m2cratic Henry George was getting
too exclusive.
Mr.. Georges body will not be taken
from the hotel today, 1t will proba-
bly, be buried at Fort Hamilton, but
the date for the funeral has not been
set.
Mrs. Gerge is bearing her trouble
with admirable fortitude. She says
it was always her husbands wish to
be buried without ostentation.

BAD LUCK FOR SPANIARDS.
Astrologer Thornton, of Greensboro,
Makes This Prediction.

Astrologer Thornton, of Greensboro,
Makes This Prediction.
THE SENTINEL was Informed this
afternoon that Astrologer Thornton,
Of Greensboro, predicts, from certain
signs OF the stars, that the Spaniards
are to have some bad luck very soon.
He says the planet Saturn was this
morning in the sign Sagittarius, the
ruling sign of Spain. and as Saturn is
what is known by astrologers as
malignant influence, the Spaniards
may look for serious trouble.
Mr.. Thornton adds that ''in all pro-
liability there will soon be Carlist
insurrection, and probably the Span
ish monarchy will be overthrown. 1t
is also more than likely, as this sign
is exactly the opposite Of Gemini, the
ruling sign OF the United States, that
Uncle Sam may be mixed up in this
EN- mbroglio: but in any event the Dons
will have no occasion to hunt trouble,
for it will fall on them thick and fast.
Spanish bonds will depreciate to al
most nothing. This will have de-
pressing effect on the London stock
exchange, and also on the Paris and
Berlin Bourses, and a Tightening Of
money in the European financial CEN
ters will have quite a bearish' infiu-
eDce on the New York Stock EX-
change. Nor shall we have to wait
| more than thirty days before we be-
gin to see the effect of it,

AFTER TWENTY YEARS.
The Building of the Railroad to
Mooresville.

| The Building or the Railroad 10
MooresvilIe.
When the railroad line from Mocks-
vile to Mooresville is completed a
, project will have been consummated
that was first begun nearly 20 years
ago, says the Statesville Landmark.
At that time it was proposed to
build narrow guage railroad from
Winston to Mooresyille. Grading
was begun and good deal Of work
was done between Mocksville- and
Mooresville, some sections of the
grading being entirely completed.
Then it was proposed to make the
line broad guage, an extension of
the Virginia Midland. and the late
John >. Barbour, of Virginia, at that
time President of the Virginia Mid
land, came to Mooresville TO look into
the matter.
The question was agitated, Coddle
Creek township. in which MooresVille
is located, voted $4,000 of bonds to
the road, one or more townships in
Rowan voted subscription, and an
election was held in Davie
By and by, in 1881, the Virginia
Midland road fell into the hands Of
the Richmond and Danville, the pre-
ended the project for the time being.
"All things come to him who
waits" but in this instance it has been
a long wait, and many OF those who
expected to see the early completion
0f the road when it was begun 20
years ago have since then passed into
the great beyond.

convicted and sentenced in Wayne
county recently to be hanged on
November 10th, has made complete
confession of the crime of the killing

TO DEPOSE BUTLER.
The Senator Leader Has Lost His
Grip With His Party.

Grip With His Party.
News and Observer, Oct. %.
Many men there be in the Populist
party in North Carolina who are per-
fectly honest-honest as the men in
any party-who are seeking the right
that they may do it; men who are
governed by their own conscience and
sense OF right, rather than by Butler,
Skinner or any other individual in the
party.
These men, though they have never
given their freedom OF speech into
any mans keeping, are slow to find
fault, but once their mind is made uD
that there is something rotten in
Denmark" they speak out in open
meeting and care not If the whole
world hears them. These men are
getting mighty tired of negro rule and
Buffers negro trading policy. They
are kicking over the traces everywhere
and demanding that he be deposed as
leader of the party.
And the man whom they propose to
put in his place is DR.. Cyrus Thomp-
son, Secretary of State. He is said
to be a man-and the only man-who
can bring all elements OF the party to-
gether. He is Objectionable to neither
the Butterflies nor the Skinnerites.
Then, OF course, he likes himself,
OthO Wilson likes him and Hal Aver
likes him-and that is all the party.
