victs is also attached to the complaint.
AS was announced in the News and OBJ

TRAINS IN COLLISION,
Freight and Passenger Crash. No One Hurt
Pure Water For Windsor.

Especial to News and Observer
Windsor, N c.. Dec. 17.-On Saturday
night the passenger train of the Yelling
ten and Powellsville Railroad colli-
ded with freight No. g. completely demoi-
ishing the latter. The accident was due
to the carelessness of an employe who
had failed to close the switch after the
freight had gone in on the side track IN
order that the passenger train might
have the right -of-way. There were no
casualties.
After several attempts during the past
fifty or more years., Windsor has finally
struck pure water through the means OK
IN ar.esian spout. All who have visited
Windsor know something of the impure
water at this place. From any other
standpoint this is a healthy locality, anG
since the bad water as an obstacle, has
been removed ne shall begin to note even
a more rapid growth and progress Of this
county-seat, of BERTHE.
There is no town in Eastern North
Carolina that is moro alive from the
commercial view than Windsor. For years
the town has been in the ascendency and
its progress during the past two years
hes been marked.

PLAYED CARDS IN A CART.
Negro Youths Give the Police a
Merry Chase.

James Jones and James Blenheim. two
colored youths, gave Sergeant Sprinkle
and Policeman Smith, Of the Second pre-
cinct, a long chase yesterday afternoon
before they finally succeeded IN capturing
them. The youths. with several compan-
ions, were. the policemen allege. deeply
engrossed in card game. which was be-
ing held in a broken down cart on the
Malone lot northeast.
So much attention were they paying to
the game that they failed to notice the
stealthy approach of the two bluecoats.
whose attention had been attracted to the
cart by the boys suspicious actions.
When about ready to pounce upon the
players one OF them suddenly caught
sight of Sergeant Sprinkle. and with a
wild cry ne dashed from his seat in the
cart to the ground. Ills cry of warning
was quickly needed by the other players
who resorted TO all sorts of peculiar tao
ties to escape from the cart. They finally
succeeded in doing so and ran rapidly
across the lot, with the policemen in full
pursuit.
Both Jones and Blenheim. however
were not extraordinary runners and were
soon captured, the othertwo fugitives hav-
ing succeeded in distancing their pursuers
AS the police had, no evidence against
them, however. so far gambling was
concerned a charge of disorderiy assem-
bly was placed against their names ON the
stationhouse blOtter
