danger he Jumped back and caught
her throwing her out of danger but
being caught himself. The log threw
him down and rolled on him.
Luckily he fell on bis side and the
log after rolling half way up his leg
stopped. Had he fallen on his back
he would have been instantly killed.

Dangers OF Newspaper Borrowing
Neral Tract BY the Country
Editor.
From the Kansas City Journal.


Here is thela story of the man
who is too stingy to take his home
paper: "A man who was too eco
nomicaI to take this paper sent his
little hoy to borrow the copy taken
by his neighbor. In his haste the
boy ran over stand of bees, and in
ten minutes looked like a uarty
summer squash His cries reached
his father, who ran to his assistance,
and failing to notice barbed wire
fence, ran into that, breaking it down
cutting handful of flesh from his
anatomy, and running "a pair OF
pants. The old COW took advantage
of the gap in the fence, and got into
the cornfield, and killed herself eat
ing green corn. Hearing the racket,
the wife ran, upset four gallon
ehurn full of rich cream into bask-
ct of kittens, drowning the whole
flock. In the hurry, she dropped .
81 set of false teeth. The baby, left
alone, crawled through the spilled
milk and into the parlor, running .
brand new $40 carpet. During the
excitement the oldest daughter ran
away with the hired man; the dog
broke up eleven setting hens, and
the calves got out and cheued the
tails off four fine shirts.

Simmons For Senator.

To the E1itor:-Who will be success
full at the primary election for United
States Senator?
We do no. know what the sentiment OF
the Democrats is in the western part oil
the State on this subject, except what we
sec in the newspapers and have been told
by friends. but we do now something OF
the sentiment of the Democrats in the
eastern section, especially the counties
of Jones. Craven and adjoining counties,
where Mr.. Simmons was born and spent
most of his life In this section OF the
State where he is we'll known, respected
and horored by all men the Democrats
are almost unanimously for him. He VIII
poll four-fifths OF the vote cast at the
primary in November next. We hear con-
tinually of his praise, and the general eK-
preston seems to be that he is in all
respects qualified and fitted for this high
office And that he is the one Demo
crat whom the party should honor at this
tine.
Among the whole people there is wide
spread oDinlon that Mr.. Simmons should
be elected to the Senate of the United
Safes.
His high character as a man; his ablll-
| ty as a lawyer and speaker will enable
| him to defend North Carolina and her
people from the assaults of such men as
Chandler. of New Hampshire, and Hoar
of Massachusetts. in the Senate of the
| United States.

THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS
Should Not be United With
Church Schools.
The Spirit Of Our Laws is Against Any
Union Of Church and State" Says
Mr.. Mebane.

The letter is an answer to many quer-
les that have come I'd his office re-
Gently:
ITO the County superintendent:
Il think it best for the committee al
ways to provide a Public School Lot
and Building. The spirit of all our
laws seems to be against combining
Church and State in any way.
when the Public School is combin-
ed with Denominational School the
best interest of the Public School can
rarely if ever be served. The Public
School will not have the support of all
the people when united with the
Church School. The Public Schools
are for all the people, supported by
all the people, and must serve all the
people by giving instruction without
any regard to denominations. or
churches.
! ''The law provides for combining
| Public Schools with Private, but / do
not think this. in any sense, means
Denominational or Church Schools.
Therefore, my instruction to you as
County superintendent, is that you
do not combine Public Schools with
UNCONVENTIONAL Schools.
81 am aware that these Church
Schools have we'll prepared teachers,
but, Notwithstanding this, the pri-
mary object for which they are en-
ployed is to benefit the Church, and
in every community we. find some par
ents who will not send their children
because the school is under church
influence other than their own.
eve must not have any hindrance
or objections to our Public Schools
that may be easily avoided. We must
have the united support of the people
in the Public School work if the work
is ever to be and to accomplish what
it should"

K1NsAULs AND DAVIS TO HANG.
Governor Russell Refused to Further Interfere
in the Matter = = = Is

Today there will be two hangings
in North Carolina, the trials leading
up to which, have excited a widespread
interest in the State. The defendant
i'm both cases have made desperate
fight for his life, contesting every inch
of ground from the indictment to the
conviction, and then bringing every
possible influence to bear upon Gov
ernor Russell for pardon or commu-
tation of sentence.
The men who are today to die on
the gallows are Chauncey Davis, who
is to be hung at Tarboro, for arson,
and Archie Kinsauls, who is to be
hanged at Clinton, for murder. In
the latter case, the day for the exc
cution has been set four times, and
thrice has something happened to
give the unhappy man a new lease on
life One time he took affairs into
his own hand and attempted to com
nit suicide. Today is the date set
for his execution.
The execution of Chauncey Davis
has been delayed once, but today, be-
tween the hours of ten and two, he
is to be hanged by the neck until
dead.
Yesterday afternoon News and
Observer reporter called at the execu-
tive office and asked if any further
delay had been made in the execution
of either of the two men.
Nothing has been done at ALL"

ernor has taken no further steps in

THE GRAND JURY FINDS A TRUE BILL
The Case Will be Tried at the Next Crimina
Term Of Wake Superior Court. Senator
Franks Shining Light Among
The Fusionists.

Rhe grand jury for the present term
of Wake Superior court yesterday
found a true bill against State Senator
j. A. Franks, of Swain county, charg-
ling him with perjury.
The case is set for trial at the next
|criminal term of Wake Superior court.
In January 1899, during the ses-
sion of the Fusion Legislature, a
young lawyer from one of the western
counties, was arrested here and
bound over to court on a charge of
stealing law books from the office OF
the clerk of court of Wake county
His bond was fixed at $50 and Franks
Gave it for him, swearing that he was
fworth that amount over and above the
homestead, his liabilities and exemp-
TONS is |
Justice ran away before the term
of court at which he was to be tried
and his bond was declared forfeited.
Judgment for the amount of the bond
was, taken against Franks and execu-
ton was issued. The return was
made that Franks had no property
and the claim could not be collected.
AS he has never since made any al
tempt to pay the forfeiture he was
presented at the July term and yes
terday the grand jury found true
bill.
Franks was a leader in the Fusion
Senate of 1897, was also member OF
that body in 1899, and has since, until
quite recently, been a member of the
State Board of Elections. He was
nominated for Corporation Commits
sioner by the last Republican State
convention.
This is perhaps the first time in
the history of recent years that State
Senator has been indicted for perjury
