Gastonia Gazette, August 26: Miss
Julia Galloway leaves Thursday morn
ing for Attention, Ala, where she will
have charge for the coming year Of the
Oak Hill school. Miss Galloway Is
young lady of scholarly attainments,
has had experience in the school room,
and the school is to be congratulated
upon securing her services. ...At his
home, three miles north of Dallas, Mr..
John Lineberger died about 10 o'clock,
Friday morning aged 40 years. He had
been sick four weeks, death resulting
from typhoid pneumonia. About 2
o'clock this afternoon Drs. Sloan and
Bunting amputated the left hand of
Hall Wilkes, colored, a few inches
above the wrist. Wilkes got his arm
badly mashed by car on the narrow
gauge at Lenoir on Sunday. 1t was
dressed by doctors there, but gangrene
set in and he was brought here today
to have the hand amputated.. Mr..
Hope Starnes, Of Rock Hill, who was
believed a few days ago to be dying,
passed the crisis of his disease in en-
couraging condition and is now getting
along so we'll that there are good hopes
for his recovery. This will be gratify-
ing news to the many friends Of this
excellent young man among our read
ers. Mr.. T. M. Fayssoux, woke on
Monday morning to find himself short
$13O, property valued at this amount
having been taken from his bedroom
sometime during Sunday night. The
discovery was first made by Mr.. Fays-
soux's little daughter, Pauline, who
found on the front piazza her fathers
bunch of keys, empty pocketbook, card
case and a memorandum book On in
vestigation Mr.. Fayssoux found that
his handsome gold watch, valued at
$1O0, a prize from the Mutual Life In
surance company, between $24 and S25
in cash, and $3.50 pair Of pants were
missing. The money consisted Of $40
in bills, and 81 or S. in change, together
with an old ten cent script piece. Mr..
Fayssouxs residence stands on the lot
adjoining the Baptist church on Long
street and his bedroom Is on the first
floor on the side toward the church. On
retiring he laid his clothes on a chair
at the foot of the bed and within three
feet of the window. The blinds were
closed, but probably not fastened and 1t
Is likely that the thief hooked the cloth
es through the window with a stick or
other instrument. This is not certain,
however, for the front door was un-
locked and he could easily have gained
entrance through it. An effort was
made to get bloodhounds from Yorkville
but for some cause they did not arrive.
The police are working diligently on
the case, but so far have not the slight
est clue as to the guilty party.
