The Rocky Mount Morton says:
eve learn that the Norfolk colored
excursionists were badly disappointed
in Rocky Mount, as they had been led
to believe that we were situated In the
western part of the State, and that
great mountains doomed up all about
us. They claimed that the circulars
advertising the excursion had two OF
three mountain scenes on them. They
were consoled by taking look at the
Falls and Hills adjoining"

Wheel Crushed His Foot.

Dan Bullock, the colored porter at the depot. was the victim of painful accident last evening, as the result of which he sustained fracture of the great toe of his left foot and contU- sions of the instep. Bullock was assisting in the unloading of the ex- press from the train from Fl Paso when a small fly wheel fell from the floor of the car to the platform, catch ing Bullock's foot. He was at once removed to the Copper Queen dispeE. sary, where it was found that his toe was broken and his foot was badly in- iured otherwise. Dr. Dysart set the fractured bone, and Bullock was taken to his home. He suffered much pain from the injury, but no serious results are expected beyond what is stated above. He will be laid up for some time. however, until the broken bone mends.

Blasted His Lie.

The strong man buried his face in
his hands.
His powerful frame that had braved
the elements and the iceman trernbled
like loose board on a barn door
A great sorrow had come into his
life unbidden as poor relation at a
family dinner or Il small boy at the
side entrance of circus.
He was a disappointed man. Money
had flowed into his lap like-beer into
an alderman. His wife had retained
her beauty. His home was all that
man could wish whose wisher was not
broken. He had stocks and bonds aud
ten dogs. but now came a great disap-
pointment into his life.
His only son, his namesake, the boy
on whom he had builded his hopes and
on whom he had lavished his money
ut barber shops and merry 20 rounds,
had failed TO make good.
Failed i'm his first undertaking. and
now he stood with downcast eyes at
his fathers side.
His wife tried to comfort him by tell.
ing him that one of the horses had
broken its leg and that the gas bill
was overdue, but he waved her aside
with a gesture that was almost bru-
tai.
His agony was pitiable
He raised his head and looked at the
boy and then at a crumpled bit Of pa
per in his hand,
His voice trembled.
"Oh, it is terribler' he said 1T will
drive me mad. Here is our little Geor-
gle of whom we were so proud. We
thought he was as bright as other
boys We even dared to hope that he
was brighter, but the illusion is over.
He will never be great and famous.
Eight years old and here is his first
composition on a horse in which he
does not say that t has four legs"
And the man once more buried his
face In his hands.

NEW YORK, Dec. 11.--After having
attempted TO rob the First National
bank Of Hoboken in broad daylight In
true western style Frank Stone, youth
of nineteen, Of Youngstown, o., sprang
into the Hudson river here when fol-
lowed by great crowd and would
have succeeded in making his escape

about his neck and hauled him in.
Stone, the police say, effected an en-
trance into saloon and robbed the
cash drawer of its contents, including
Il check on the First National bank for
Sl5. Payment on the check was stop
ped, and when Stone presented it at the
cashiers window Cashier McKaig went
out to capture the lad. The latter sud
denly seized the wicket window and
attempted to pull it apart and seize the
cash that lay in large quantities on the
counter He was still pulling at the
window when the cashier came upon
him and attempted TO hold him up.
With a hard blow the boy managed to
wrench himself loose from McKaig and
bOlted for the street He made his way
TO a Delaware, Lackawanna and West
ern pier and jumped into the river.
