ST. LOUIS, Apg. 6.--Caught by the
heavy windstorm here, one man was
killed and three or four are SO badly
injured that they will die and many
received less injury by being hurled
from buildings in the worlds fair
grounds. So suddenly did the violent
storm break That the men who were at
work dta not have time TO climb down
out Of harms way.
Calls were sent In at once by mem
bers of the Jefferson guards on the
grounds for amhulancgs to care for
the wounded. At RrsS 1t was believed
that ave men had lost their lives, and
even now it is impossible to ascertain
definitely just how many persons were
killed or injured. w.
One was dead when the guards
reached his side, and 1t is said that
four others could not live until the trip
to hospitals was nude,
The accident wards Of the hospitals
were flied with men who had been in

caught by the wind before they had
time to climb down from the buildings
were carried more than fifty feet by
the wind before being dashed to the

a Financial Strait


A rich woman of Balambing fell in
love with handsome young slave be-
longing ito a Moro in a neighboring
town. After some difficulty she ef-
fected his purchase and married him,
despite the fact of his being so far be-
meath her in the social scale. MOI
long after this the happy couple went
to- Bongoa ON q market-day. The
lady, being an inveterate gambler, re-
paired at once to- the cock-p where
she lost so heavily that she found he1
FUNDS inadequate for the return triG
to Balamjbing. Then a happy idea
struck her. Why not pawn her hus'
band? Although she was married "tc
him, he was still slave in the eyes
of the. law; and she could redeem him
on her next trip to Bongoa.
Acting ON this happy inspiration, she
sought an audience with the governor
explaining through the interpreter hel
predicament, and offering her husband
las a security for the loan of $3.50 gold
The governor, being a bachelor, was
sceptcal as to this marriage transac.

groom permanently upon his hands Il
he advanced so great sum. This
was made plain ITO the bride, who pro
tested that life would be quite unen'
Durable without her 1iege lord, or
more properly speaking, her diego sub
ject, but the governor was unrelenting
How the lady finally managed to reach
Balamhing is not told Everybody

In order to give ample time for fullness
I'd accuracy it has been determined to

day, March 22nd. 1t Will contain pic
ture of every member of the General AS

during the Legislature; and every fact
of interest connected with the Legisla-
ture of 1903.
Thirty five thousand copies of this edi-
tion will be printed and circulated
throughout the State from Murphy to

ers. Terms will be made known on ap-

LEGISLATIVE REPORT.

Upon the conclusion of the General AS
sembly, the leaders in both the House
and Senate were warm in their praise of
the splendid manner in which the pro-
ceedings of the session had been report
cd. Senator Henderson, who has served
in both branches of the General Assem-
bly, and in Congress said that he had
to be reported so fully, accurately and
fairly. The Lumberton Argus has this
comment:
I'VE were in Raleigh two days last
week looking on the Legislature, but
we learned no more of what was going
ON than if we had been at home We
so we'll kept the public informed of the
legislative happenings"
The News and Observer has received
thanks from a number of its more than
900 subscribers for it's excellent re-
ports. 1t is not too much to say that
never in the history of North Carolina
journalism did any two men do better
work than the accomplished members of
the News and Observer staff who reported
the legislative proceedings-M Edward
L. Britton in the Senate and Mr.. San
ford L. Rotter in the House.

COLUMBIA GETS FOUR TIMES AS
MUCH.

The city of Columbia, the capital Of
South Carolina, has a population not
much larger than Raleigh, though the
census gives Columbia 81 los and Raj
eigh 1868 Greater Raleigh, the cor
porate limits having now been extended
the first time in fifty years, will show a
larger increase in population.
Columbia and Richland county received
last year a little over $4,000 from the
sale of liquor through it's dispensary
system.
The city of Raleigh and the county OF
Wake received last year $4,000 from
licenses on the sale of liquor There
are twenty-four saloons in Raleigh, one
beer establishment, and two wholesale
houses. The retailers pay the city $500
cash, and the beer houses and wholesale
houses 800. All pay 500 each to the
county of Wake. The city gets $500 a
year and the county $1,000.

A Light Docket---The KitsOn Light--A Cues
ton of Road Working.
especial to News and observer)


SmjthfeId. n. C, March 12.-This is
court week in good old Johnston. Judge
Rrvan Is presiding. These is no case of
Importance. Solicitor Jones finished the
States docket and left Tuesday night.
The Judge drove to Selma Wednesday
morning in time to catch the II p. m.
train for Goldsboro. Just two days court,
Does this not speak well for a law-abid-
ing people?
Mr.. ]. ]. Street, of Goldsboro. has
been here this week in the interests OF
the improved Kitson light, for which he
is the State agent. This is something
new in this section for lighting streets,
business houses, halls, churches. One
light was put up to show what it is. 1t
is certainly brilliant, steady light of
1000 candle power, and it is a guaran-
teed by the company that one gallon of
kerosene oil will burn for twelve hours,
give light stronger than
electricity at a considerable less expense.
Mr. Street has put the lights in the Bap-
fist church, and established Mr. A. H.
Kirkman as an agent for this section.
In conversation with farmers from va
rious sections of the county T learn that
farming operations are very backward,
owing to so much rain. From what I
hear at this time believe the acreage of
tobacco will be somewhat reduced this
year in this section as compared with
last.
The voters of this, Smithfield town
ship, are very much interested in the
question of whether or not the roads
shall be worked hereafter by taxation or
the old way. A bill was passed by the
Legislature to vote on this question and
a vote will be taken in a few weeks.
The. indications now are that the vote
will be in favor Of taxation.
Smithf1eld from a standpoint of health,
morality business and house building.
continues to grow and improve. The town
can certainly boast of neat, we'll kept

A Noted Bond Case Settled.
fRv the Associated press.l

Richmond, Va, March I'm the State
Supreme Court of Appeals today the ia
nous case of Murray VS.. The Farmville
and Powhatan Railroad Company was
decided The opinion reverses the de-
cree of the law and equity court of this
city. The question at issue involved the
security provided for the mortgage bonds
of the Farmviile and Powbatan Railroad
Company, and five or six of the leading
Richmond banks held these bonds as
collateral security.
In October, 1899, the Farmville and
Powhatan Railroad Company went into
the hands of a receiver and a question
arose as to what part of the road Sc
cured the bonds under the two existing
mortgages. the holders of the first mort
gage bonds contended that their bonds
were secured as first lien on the en-
tire line This was denied by Murray,
the holder of the second mortgage
bonds Tie court held that the second
mortgage boads were first lien On that
part of the Farmville and Powhatan
Railroad which was formerly the Bright
hope Road, thus reversing the decree Of
the Richmond court.
