TRIED TO KILL BRYAN JARVIS.
Frank Hanes Buys a Rifle And
Goes Cunning.

The readers of, THE SENTINEL. will
remember that Frank Hanes, a WELL
to-do farmer, who resides near Glenn
monsville, this county, came to Win
ston several weeks ago and bought a
ticket for one of the Western States:
also that one of his relatives sent a
telegram here instructing the officers
not to allow him to leave on the train.
which was done. He returned home
and nothing was heard from him until
July Is when warrant was issued for
his arrest, on the charge that he at
tempted to shoot Bryan Jarvis, one
OF Mr.. Hanes' neighbors.
Ja1ler M aSten went out tn at morning
and arrested Hanes. He brought him
to Winston that afternoon and locked
him up in Jail.
The old mans mind is affected. He
came to Winston last week with a load
of sheep and bought him a Winches-
ter rifle. He had this when he went
cunning for Mr.. Jarvis.
When asked why he wanted to shoot
Mr.. Jarvis, Hanes replied that he had
been interfering with him and his bus
mess. This is evidently mistake as
Mr.. Jarvis has the reputation of being
a good, peaceable citizen.
Mr.. Hanes owns fine farm on Mud
dy Creek. He raised $50 bushels of
wheat this year, has about 100 head of
sheep and has a fine crop of corn.
1t Is quite probable that he will be
sent to the hospital at Morganton as
soon as the superintendent can take
him.

1t Was Grown in Virginia in 1860
and 1861.

The Richmond Tobacconist has a
sample of three leaf hogsheads of AL
bermarle county tobacco made in 1860
to 1861 by the father of Mrs. Julia A !.
E. Wood, a married daughter who
had tobacco sold recently, bringing
respectively 4, 5 and &c.
From the outside the tobacco in the
hogsheads, as originally prized in
1861, was sound, but two were not en-
tirely so, and one was entirely sound. :.
Mrs. Wood IS father kept the tobacco
so long due to determination in 1861,
when the Yankees, as he said, treated
him badly, that he would never sell
anything more off his farm, and he
didn't do it, but he died last year and
his heirs have disposed of aceumula-
tions due to such an idiosyncratic
resolution.
1t was remarkable that the hogs
heads, made of white pine wood, were
perfectly sound and solid, neither
worm eaten nor decayed, but stained
yellow by the evaporation of the to-
bacco, which kept it's strength remark

The Bankruptcy Act.

With reference to the bankruptcy
act recently passed by Congress. sec
tion 30 of the act provides that the
United States Supreme Court shall
provide certain forms, rules, etc, as
to procedure in the enforcement of the
act. As the Supreme Court adjourned
before the act became law and will not
meet again until October there is some
doubt as to whether the law can be
put in force until that court has pro-
mulgated its rules and regulations.
1t is the opinion of some lawyers, how
ever, that forms can be provided and
the proper authorities will go on with
the execution of the law without walt
ing on the Supreme Court.

1t appears that ''hot tines and
''hOt stuff are still bobbing up as a
result of the recent Republican Con-
gressional Convention, when Linney s
appolntees renominated him.
THE SENTINEL heard an intimation
few days ago that Solicitor Mott
might be taken down if the Insurgents
put up candidate for Congress. The
Wllkesboro Chronicle says it gets it
from a reliable source that State Chair

llcan State Convention that if Marsh
Mott didn't draw in his horns. make
sufficient apologies to Linney and

name would be taken down and some
other name put in its place. Holton
says the Linney of1ice-holdcrs held a
proper convention and kickers amount
to nothing, and that the State conven-
tlon put Linney in as chairman as
endorsement of his nomination and
the methods used to secure it, and also
for the purpose of humiliating Mott.
He says they are going to teach these
obstreperous fellows that they must
bow to ''the powers that be. -
Holton says they've got Mott in a
hole and he'll have to do their bid
ding or stay in the hole.

OF Populists will return to the Demo-

mistake to cooperate with the Popu-
lists on any plan that provides for
keeping up or reorganizing their party
organization, but is willing to see
former Populists given big share of
the officers provided they will come
into the Democratic party. He claims
that there is now no further excuse for
the existence of the Populist party and
would be glad to see all of them re-
turn to the Democratic fold and share
