IAN ERA OF EDUCATION.
Col. Cunningham's Address this Morn
ing at the Fair Grounds.

Col John S. Cunningham, chairman
of the State Board of Agriculture and
ex-president of the State Fair, arrived
in the city last night and is at the Var
borough.
Col. Cunningham will this morning
formally open the Fair with an address
on the Era of Educational Advance
ment in North Carolina He was
chosen on account of the inability of
Governor Russell to be present and per-
form this duty.
In his address Col Cunningham will
point to the advantages that come to
the professions and to those engaged in
the various callings in life. He will.
therefore, urge especially upon farmers
and those engaged in Industrial pursuits
the necessity for education that their
efforts may be intelligently directed.
Col. Cunningham was president of the
last Fair-the largest and best attended
Fair the State has ever known-and he
is anxious that this one should be even
better, thereby showing the growth and
progress of the State.

YOUNG MAN KILLED
BY Shit TING TRAIN
Edward Straughan's Head
Cut Entirely off.
FELL BETWEEN THE CARS
PROBABLY TRYING TO STEAL
A RIDE.
HE WAS UNDER INFLUENCE OF LIQUOR
The Head Was as Completely and Almost as
Smoothly Cut off as if it Had Been
Severed With Knife. The
Funeral To-Day.

Last night about 9:45 o'clock at John
ston street station, a Seaboard Air Line
shifting train killed a young white man
named Ed Straughan.
The cars passed over him, cutting his
head entirely off, almost as smoothly
as if it had been severed by a knife.
His neck was exactly en- the rail, the
head inside the track and his feet out
side. When he was picked up his hat
was about three feet from the trunkless
head.
Exactly how the accident occurred, if
indeed it was am accident, is not known.
Not even LngIneer Card, who was on
the engine at the time, can say whether
he ram over the man as the engine went
down the track or as it came back Nor
it is known whether Straughan purposely
ay down and so carefully placed his
body in order to be killed, or whether he
was trying to get on the cars attached
TO the shifter to steal a ride.
The last theory, however, seems to
be the true one. 1t is known that
Straughan was drinking. He has for
many years been addicted to the excess
i've use of intoXicants and several times
before this he has come very near be-
ing killed. Sunday he offered Policeman
Haynes drink and told him he expect
ed to hobo" away from here on the
train Monday yesterday. And about
twenty minutes before he was found
dead ON the track Straughan was seem
by Waterman Morris staggering among
the cars standing ON the siding. Fire
man Frank Cole, who was ON the
sllifter, says he saw man resembling
the dead man in size running along be-
side a car. holding on to it, as the
shifter went down the track
toward the Raleigh Cotton Mills. A few
minutes later as the train backed up
the track he looked out and saw a
man lying on the ground. He called at
tention to it and the engine was stopped
Immediately.
The body was found in the position
described above. In the mans pocket
was found Il bottle with about gill
of whiskey in it. Otherwise than the
complete cutting off of the head there
was no cuts or bruises ON it. The body
was taken to the office at Johnston
by an undertaken
Straughan wore a dark blue yarn

He was a printer by trade and had

was on the Catholic paper published
here.
He was about % years old. the son
of Mr.. r. Il. Straughans a trucker liv-
ing in Brooklyn, western suburbs of
this city. He was nephew of Mr.
Mack Straughan, the well known janitor
at the capitol.
The body was taken about II O'Clock
last night to the undertaking establish

SHOOTING sCRAPE IN A BAR.
One Negro Wounds Another. Other
Troubles for the Police

mi Bailey's bar last might about 8
O'Clock there was shooting affair.
And ono drink of mean corn liquor
was the cause of it ALL
The man who did the shooting was
Charles Wilson, a negro clerk, and the
man who got shot was Charles Taylor, a
negro customer.
Taylor, it seems, ordered a drink Of
whiskey and asked that some blackberry
wine be put i'm it. The whiskey was
put upon the counter. Again Taylor
said he wanted some blackberry wine
in it. Wilson replied that he had put
some i'm ii already. This statement
Taylor disputed. The lie was passed
back and forth Then Wilson told Tay-
Tor not to call him lie. Taylor re-
peated the epithet and Wilson seized
his pistol and fred the ball taking eff
feet in the fleshy part Of Taylor's right
arm, near the shoulder.
The matter will be heard before May
or POWELL this morning.

New Land Office Rules,

The acting land commissioner has is
sued general circular to land officials
prescribing rules for the government
of all persons concerned in proceedings
arising on reports Of special agents,
affecting the validity of claims to public
land. Copies Of this circular were for
warded to the land Offices in Minnesota,
Wisconsin and the Dakotas. Hereafter
when report of a special agent is fl
ed with the general land Office, alleging
that certain entry filing, location or
claim for q specified tract of land is
fraudulent or illegal, or that the claim
ant has failed to comply with the re-
quirements of law, and the facts pres
ented are sufficient to warrant the can
collation. of the entry or claim, the
proper local officers will be directed to
serve notice upon the entryman or
claimant. This notice must specify and
define the adverse charges contained in
the report of the special agent. The
entryman will then be advised that he
will be allowed thirty days in which to
apply for hearing, and failure to ap-
ply within the time prescribed will be
accepted as an admission of the truth.
fulness Of the charges. The notice must
be served in person whenever possible,
and where all other means have failed
the notice will be given by publication.
The object OF this change in the rules
is to provide for the serving of a notice
upon the entryman by which he will be
given an opportunity to be heard in
case he so desires. Heretofore it has
been the practice that upon the report of
a special agent of the abandonment Of a
claim or that the entry had been made
in violation of law, the entry has been
held for capcellation without the as
surance of notice to the claimant.
