and released.
Phifer and jackson have also been
vaccinated but IL has failed to take, SO
they will remain in the pest house

These men are paying their own ex-

found to have smallpox. Boarding in
named persons and about dozen 9TH
ers.
When the presence of the disease Was
discovered, the house, with every body
in it, was quarantined. This quaran-
time was kept up for about i've days,
then 1t seems Mayor Parker got tired
Of it, took the guard away and told
those in the house they could 60
wherever they pleased, provided they
left Selma.

but Msssrs. Bell, Phifer, Jackson and
Fowler knowing there was pest house

walked to Wilson's Mills and here they
found freight train, and rode on the

reached::th pest house, q mile and q
half from the city, it slowed up and
they dropped off.
That was Monday. They went imme-
diately to the pest house and notified
the health authorities of their presence
and of their desire to, be allowed to re-
main there at their own expense until
they were sure they did not have the
disease,

ssnsationoI Attempt to Commit Suicide
In . Court Room.
Statesrille, N. c., Feb. There was
quite q sensation in the court room
here this afternoon, when Oscar Sans
stabbed himself in the breast and fell
at his seat. just after being sentenced
to twelve months on the roads for an
assault with a deadly weapon.
Sans is a native OF JonesbOro, Tenn.
and has been living in this State for
about a year, for the past four months
ut MoOresville.
When his wound was being exam
ined in the clerks office Of the United
States courtroom, where he was taken
Sans made . second attempt to take
his life; and just subsequent to the
examination, in casting his eye on the
clerks desk, he spied steel ink eraser
and with a mighty determination he
sudeavored to get hold of it; but the
interventive of the doctor and an officer
prevented. The wound was probed and
was found to be an inch deep.

A Haunted HeadboaVd.
ashin gtOp. N. C.. PROGRESS.

Washington, N. c., Progress.
About one month ago strange
knocking or rapping on the headboard
of Mrs. George Howard's bedstead was
discovered, which alarmed her. At
first it was not 80 frequent. However,
1t became more frequent and louder.
At times it would rap every five min
etes. 1t is heard more frequently at
night, but it 10 often heard in the day
time. 1t became so annoying that Mrs.
Howard went to her mothers and it
followed her there. She returned home
and it so worked UPON her nervous
sy stem that she has taken her bed Do
zens Of people have heard it..and testi
fy to the fact. Some nights it is per-
fectly awful and no one hearing it is
able to sleep long alta time. At first it
would not knock when any other per-
son was in the room with Mrs. How
ard, but now it knocks with others in
the room. 1t does not always conflne
itself to the headboard, but will knock
on the mantle or in other portions of
the room. SeveralA:ladies who have
been in the room when it would RAP
have been frightened badly. They say
that a most strange feeling comes
over them.
Mr.. 9. e. Harding, the brother OF
Mrs. Howard, often stays in the room
with her since she has been sick and
he also hears it. None seem able tt
solve the mystery. 1t raps three times
and then stops, The bedstead shaker
when it raps 1t only raps when Mrs
Howard is in the room, but it does MOI
confine itself to any one room.
Several preachers and doctors hav'
tried to solve the mystery, but all hav'
failed. Many theories have been ad
vanced but none have been accepted
We do not believe in the ability of
spirit to perform such an act and ye
We are 40 much mystified az other pee
pie.
