time Mr.. Robinson drew his pocllet-knifc,
and III the light wnich followed lsed it

RALEIGH tN. CO MAN INJURED.
Because S NJ. Bullock, a white man
frCln Raieigl. n c., who was steains a
ride on a freight train of the Chesapeake
and Ohio railroad, wnich reached Rca-
uond from Newport News at 1855 OC clock
Vast night, reiusl,! to give up what money
he had he was shot twice and, according
TO his physician, ia ally wounded by two
unknown n.groos. Bullock was travelling
in a coal car with a companion VINO said
his name was Philip Miller, and wnen the
train No. 90 in charge Of Conductor w.
B. Smith reached Eoana, two strange
negroes climbed into the car. Just after
the train left this station, it is clai,ned
by Miller and Bullock, that the negroes
accosted them with revOlvvrs and de-
manded what money they had.
1t was a case in which two men mad
money ana two men had Guns. and the
result was favorynlc to the men behind
the guns. Miller, though in better tinan-
cial circumstances than Bullock, was not
equipped with SO extensive q supply OF
nerve, and turned hs pockets inside out
when commanded to do SO, and the hish-
waymen relieved him of his Dank-rcll ag-
grecatinG s6. q. Deep down in the recesses
Of Bullocks coal-dust besrimed trousers
rested the sum of $2.52, and there the Tar
Heel determined it should remain.
MONEY OR YOUR LIFE.
..Yo money Or yo life shouted bur
lev b,3cs, as ne shvet a big revolver
under the nose Of Hobo Bullock.
GO chase yerselt, retorted the Caro-
linian derisive!y.
This ange. ed the hishwayman and he
and his companion, it is charged, fired
almost simultaneously AT the obdu"ate
traveller. one ball Penetrating his right
eve and another piercing MS left m.
While it looked as if The ball that enterel
the eye of Bullock had gone straight
through the orb and INFO the brain. Nearly
an hour after being shot Bullock climbed
over the cars reached the locomotive and
notified Conductor smith OF what had nap
penel lust as the tran reached Elko
Captain Smith Vas dUmfoundel when
he saw Bullock coming towalf him, lit
erally covered with blood Miller was
with him and he. too very much resem-
b!ed the artist-in-chiet at a Slaughter
house The train crew made he vounded
man as comfortable as possible and
brought him to Richmond.
PROBABLY FATAL
On arrival here Bullock was taken to
the CITY Almshouse where he was given
medical attention: nF Gills dressed his
wounds and made thu sufferer as COM
Portable as possible. He found that the
bullet .hat pierced the eye had entered
the brain and that lhare was practically
no chance for Buiioch's recovery. 1T IS
remarkable that the man has retained
consciousness. said DR.. Gills speaking
of the case at o'clock this morning.
"Onlv the strongest sort of constitution
co1,ld. stand such q shock Bullock is,
nevertheless. liable to go oft>nto a coma
tose STATE anv moment. T do not think it
a,,,a6ia,t to rrobe for the ball at this
time II would mean certain death"
