Many comments were heard in the city last

known that many ropes were used as means of

Pittchfork VS.. Bicycle.

Mooresville, May 2o.-Mr. F. Ray
mer lives at Mt. Mourne. His son
carries mail from that point to River
View. A day or so ago while en- route
to River View with the mail, which he
was carrying on bicycle, he was met
in the road by one William Cashion.
who, with pitchfork in hand, jumped
before the rider and allowd the prongs
the fork to enter the tubes of the front
wheel, badly puncturing the same.
The man does not seem to realize the
seriousness of his deed. 1t IS thought
that his motive was for fun and that
he had no intention of dong any harm.
This act brings to our attentio On the
fact that many people do not seem to
know thai bicycle riders have rights
that should be respected. We know of
people who are SO prejudiced against
the wheel that they have set their dogs
after the rides. When some ofthese
dogs are killed and some oftheir own
ers receive a good thrashing this
menace to a public conveyance will
cease. The reason given for some OF
these offenses is that their horses
become frightened All gentlemen
will dismount when they see some OF
their fellows in peril on account of the
wheel, and all true gentlemen on the
other hand will yield part of the road
when they meet conveyances-let them
be buggies or bicycles.

l1exicans Lynch Seven.

Cincinnati, o., May 20 "A special to
the Enquirer from Diaz, Mexico, says ::
The is great excitement in a town
named San Dialo, ten miles from here,
over the lynching of seven colored
laborers of the Mexican Central Rail-
road. Jose Santo, Spanish negro, at
tempted to assault the wife of Senior
Duply, a ranch owner and escaping
from the plantation, was tracked by
bloodhounds, and in company with
nine others, was captured in q hut on
the river bank opposite Eagle Pass.
The regulators did not attempt to
prove the guilt Of the negroes, but
hung three of them and shot four more
who we're attempting to escape. The
officials are swearing in deputies, as
race trouble is threatened in the COL
ored quarter. Four of the negroes
killed are Americans and all have
served sentences in the Texas peniten.

They Need English.

The State Board OF Examiners last
week formulated the prescribed course
of study to be followed in the negro
public schools, as noted in these col
umns at the time. Among these were
included the colored normal schools
of which there are several in the State.
Yesterday the printed course pre-
scribed, together with letter Of In
structions, was sent to the Normal
school superintendents. Among other
things contained in the letter occur
the following sentences
"We have limited the course Of
study to English. We believe that for
the present condition of the colo1ed
people in North Carolina the first year
in this course of study they need Eng
lish that for success as public school
teachers in the school room they need
English for the second year; that in
order 1or them to show by their work
on the communities IN which they teach
that it pays to spend money to educate
negroes, they will need English for the
third year,
The board also calls attention to the
practice which appears to obtain at
several Of these negro "normals' of
admitting children ranging from eight
to twelve years of age, and reminds
them that normal school are designed
to prepare teachers. 1t is also sug-
gested that but one superindent and
two assistants be employed at each of
these schools, and the board directs
that only qualified teachers be employ
ed, and that they be selected from the
best to be had, etc.

tion are rivals, not only of those from
the other section, but of each other.
Starting with the contest apparently
between Sherman, of New York, and
Hopkins, of Illinois, the situation has

honors are apparently easy between
Sherman, Payne, Hopkins and Hender.

Each claims to be doing as we'll if
not better than he expected, and all
four are in earnest. If appearances can
be trusted, however, Henderson, of
Iowa, and Payne, of New York, are
gaining strength at the expense of
Hopkins and Sherman, respectively.
As it stands now neither of the four
can control enough votes to secure
the nomination. Some one must give
way, and union between the Hender-
son and Hopkins or the Payne and
Sherman forces seems probable in the
near future.

Went Once too Often

Richmond, May 22.--At Chase City,
yesterday. James Hayes, 20 years old,
was shot and probably fatally wounded
by Walter Wagstaff. Both are promin-
ent residents of Chase City. Wagstaff
moved there with his wife, who is an
exceedingly handsome woman, about
a year ago. Young Hayes had visited
his house several times and Wagstaf
had warned him not to come again.
Yesterday Wagstaff went home and
met Hayes coming out of the gate. He
reminded him of his warning and hot
words ensued, wheu Wagstaff fired,
the bullet striking Hayes in the throat.
