AN AWFUL TRAGEDY IN RALEIGH

Mr.. Earnest Haywood, Prominent Law
yer, Shot and killed Mr., Ludlow Skin -
n-r, in frcnt of the Post Office saturday
Afternoon
Saturday afternoon Mr.. Ludlow
skinner was shot and killed by Mr..
Ernest Haywood. The shooting
occurred in front of the POST Office,
but it seems that very few. if any,
saw the first shot fred. but it is
claimed by many that the second
shot was the fatal one. Mr.. Skin
ner went across the street after he
was shot and turned as if to come
back to the post Office, but fell near
the street CIR track, where he died
a very few seconds afterwards. The
exact cause of the shooting is not
known, but it is supposed it was on
accout of fairs connected with the
Skinner estate, and some family
troubles.
Both of the families are among
the most prominent in the state.
Mr.. Haywood is a prominent lawyer
of this city and Mr.. Skinner was {
prominent business man, and son
of DR.. Thos, Skinner, of this city
Haywood was committed to Jail,

AFTER THE FLESHruts AGAIN.
Every day there is renewed evil
dence of the apostasy of the South
ern Democrats. They lose no Oppor-
tunity in throwing boquets at Wall
Street and Tammany and the North
ern and New England Democrats
They lose no opportunity to make
these elements understand that they
are ready to desert their declared
principles of 1896 and 1900 and to
enter into league with Tammany
and Wall Street Democrats on any
platform and with any candidate
that will win and enable them to
again reach the pie-couuter and fet d
from the fleshspots. Almost every
day we see declarations from South
ern Democrats that they favor
Judge Parker of New York for
President. What does Judge Par
ker stand for? Nobody knows.
He Is a colorless statesman. He
has no defined position on any nat
ional question; has been a local re.
cluse on the bench, and has never
taken any part in national affairs.
1t seems clear that Wall Street j:
sMNNsNeA with him and shat ne II

frightened during the war between

ened at the inception of our war

The present situation illustrates ex-
actly the sum and substance of
Southern democracy, q party of
negation, without principles except
for campaign purposes, and ready to
support any candidate that can get
the backing Of Wall Street provided
ID will enable them to win. They
are now playing the same game
that they played when they put

A SUSTAINING DIET.

These are the enervating days,
when, a. somebody has said, men
drop by the sunstroke as If the day
FIRE had dawned. They are fraught
with danger to people whose systems
are poorly sustained; and this leads
us to say, in the interest of the less
robust OF our readers, that the full
effect of b Gods Ssrsaparilla is such
as to suggest the propriety of cali
ing this medicine something besides
. blood purifier and tonic,-say, q
sustaining diet. 1t makes it much
easier to bear the heat, assures re-
tresning sleep, and will without any
doubt avert much sickness at this

SAMPLE DEMOCRATIC ECO
Monty AND GOOD GOVERNMENT

1t has now developed tnat III Will
be necessary for the legislature to
provide for issuing over six hum
dred thousands dollars Of bonds to
meet deficits and keep the State
Democratic Administration going.
Last year when 1t became necessary
for Governor Aycock and his Treas
urer to borrow two hundred thous-
and dollars, II seems that they tried
to keep the fact secret. When
letters were written to the State
Treasurer asking If the State had
borrowed that amount or any other
amount Of money, the Treasurer
was slow in answering, and the facts
were first given out by Senator
Simmons In his speech in the Demo-
cratic State Convention, at which
time he tried to apologize and ex-
plain away the causes for the deficit,
The Democrats at that time attemp
ted to charge that this $500, 900 loan
was made necessary on account of
the debts created by the former
fusion administration. That charge
was promptly denied and di proven
with fart-; but even if that charge
were true, what explanation can
Democrats now make for borrowing
and additional four hundred thOus-
and dollsrs9
The fact is that when the Demo-
cratic Legislature got control in 1898
there was In the hands of Treasurer
Worth of the State over one thous-
and dollars in cash, and if that
Democratic Legislature had not
largely increased appropriations and
expenses, including salaries for new
offices created, 1t would not have
been necessary to have borrowed
money, sold bond, or run the state
in debt. This same Democratic
Legislature required Treasurer Worth
to sell one hundred and thirty-six
thousand dollars worth of bond.
which were purchased by the State
In 1885 out Of the surplus revenues
that were raise !, to pay the interest
on the four percent bonds. A for
mer Democratic Treasurer had al
really sold one hundred and thirty
thousand dollars worth of these
bonds to meet former deficits created
by Democratic legislatures. The
remainder Of these bonds were
turned over in 1896 to State Treas.
urer Worth and by him were held
intact and never a dollar of them
used to pay expenses created by the
fusion legislatures, and it was not
until another Democratic Legislature
came In power that they forced the
sale Of the remainder of these bonds
So 1t will be seen that it was by
the action Of the Democratic legis.
latures that the whole amount OF
these bonds, that Is, two HUNDRED
and seventy-two thousand two
hundred and fifty dollars, had been
sold to meet Democratic def it's: ant
that, in addition, they soon there
after borrowed two hundred thous
and dollars more. Now they pro
pose to i-sue bonds to borrow fou
hundred thousands dollars more
making over six hundred thousand
in all. This is sample of Demo
cratic ECONOMY and good govern
ment".

Alarm Clock With Attachments In

An alarm clock for deaf mutes 1s
.he novel invention of Elisha Cretzer,
a deaf mute in The employ Of the
'Vashoe smelling plant, who resides at
Is Birch street How to awaken
at certain hour has long been a
problem among these unfortunate peo'
pie, and in Mr.. Cretzer's invention
The solution has beer found, says the
Anaconda Standard. OF course, the
or.1nary alarm clock has been useless
Mr.. CretZer, who is an ingenious fel-
low, is water and flume tender at
the Washoe smelter His work neces-
states his rising at an early hour In
the morning, and as he has no means
Of awakening he has lost many days
Of work by being late. He accordingly
set about inventing an apparatus by
which he could always be on time.
The dropping of pillow on the
sleeping person is the awakening
agent, and it is operated so that the
pillow falls at the desired time. An
ordinary alarm clock is placed in a
cigar box, which fits it closely. 1t Is
then nailed to the wall at the head of
the bed. A string connects the zap
per of the alarm clock with an ordi
nary spring mouse trap fastened to
he top of the cigar box. BY a sys.
tenn Of small pulleys and screweyes a
pillow is fastened to the end of a
string and pulled to the ceiling direct
y above the bed. An ingenious ar
rangement connects the other end Of
the string to the mouse trap. The
COCK is set and when the alarm goes
off the string attached to the bell
elapper springs the mouse trap and
releases the pillow, which drops on
the person sleeping in the bed be-
aeath
when it does not hit me it hits my
wife" Mr.. Creizer wrote on a piece
of paper, "and SO l never miss day
any more"
