Not Of Our killing.

When Senator Gallinger was practic-
ing medicine in his New Hampshire
home, he had Il coachman who was Il
"character". worthy of the attention
of any writer of fiction. On one Occa-
sion Dr. Gallinger was called profess
sOnally at house next to a residence
on which was displayed black Grape as
n sign of death. "A passerby, noticing
the Grape and not knowing who had
died there, supposed DR.. Gallinger was
in the house and that his coachman
could give the desired information. The
coachman seemed to take the inquiry
as personal affront and bristled up
in martial style.

TrOllOpe Disagreed.

Although Anthony Trollope never
smoked, he liked being with those who
did. 1t soothed his nerves, he said, and
sent him to sleep. On one occasion,
when he had just returned to London
from South Africa, he was talking at
the Cosmopolitan club to Lord Carna-
Won, Lord Derby, Froude, the historian,
Lord Wolseley and one or two others
equally famous on the future of that
country. In the midst Of the discussion
Trollope fell asleep, and after a quar-
ter of an hours doze he awoke, shaking
himself together like the faithful,
growing Newfoundland dog he so
much resembled. Dissentient even In
his unconsciousness, he spluttered
forth: 81 utterly disagree with every
one of you. What is it you said?"

Rain and Plants.

Many, persons must have noticed that
the most diligent sprinkling of lawns
and flower beds fails to impart to the
grass and plants vital stimulus equal
to that which comes from good show
err of rain. A correspondent reminds
us of the reason for the difference. 1t
is because rain, falling from great
height through the air, brings with 1t
Il considerable quantity of carbonic
acid, Of heterogeneous particles and of
other elements nutritious to plants
which 1t has washed out Of the atmos-
phere. So sprinkler used from the

more effective than when employed at

ISSUES OF THE CAMPAIGN.
Cannon and Williams Give Their Views
on this Subject.

The New York Herald published yester-
day the following interviews on the party
platforms:
Joseph G. Cannon, Speaker OF the House
of Representatives-The continued pros
perity of the country will be the great is
sue in the rational campaign of 1904. We
are the greatest producing nation in the
world-greater than England, Germany
and France combined. More than any
other nation in the world we dominate
cur own markets, and under the policies
of the Republican party we are reaching
out rapidly to other markets. Shall We
maintain the policy that has produced
this prosperity, or shall we go into the
wilderness of uncertainty? Shall we seek
false gods and consequent dangers? These
will be the questions to be decided by the
voters in 1904. Does the machinery of the
government need little oil here and the
Tightening of screw there? These should
be supplied by the party responsible for
its operation. On these issues the Repub-
lican party, now in power, has no fears of
the outcome.
John Sharp Williams, leader of the Dem
ccratic party in the House-Revision of
the tariff, at least in so far as it shelters
the great trusts, larger powers to the In
terstate Commerce Commission to deal
with transportation rates; colonialism as
recently inaugurated by this government;
corruption in office, recklessnesS IN our
dealings with other nations-thesc, in my
opinion, will be the great issues of the
national campaign of 1904 to be forced to
the front by the Democratic party. And
on them the Democracy, united and har-
monious, will be willing to rest its claim
to power. Others may develop as the
present session of Congress progresses,
but these will be the main questions to
be decided.

THE CLAIMS OF DREYFUS.
And the Grounds Upon Which He De-
ponds for Vindication.
(By the Associated Press.)

Paris, Dec. 28.-The grounds upon which
Dreyfus depends for vindication and re-
storation to the army have been COM
municated to the Associated Press. Drey-
fus charges that a telegram from Colonel
acknowledgement, late German military
attache here, to Colonel Panizzardi
formerly italian military attache at Paris,
as presented to the court-martial at
Rennes, bore the date of April, 1894, when
lie was occupied with the details of the
mobilization of troops, of which the tele-
gram treated whereas the actual date of
TIE telegram was the last OF March, 1885,
after he (Dreyfus) had been tried. A
copy which has been found has establish
cd the correctness of Dreyfus' claims in
the opinion of the Commission. which
recommended a revision Of the case. The
statement of the case against Dreyfus,
containing the telegram, when it arrived
at the Ministry for War was dated April
!, 1895, which Dreyfus claims, shows the
Telegram was written in the latter part
Of March OF that year. With a pair of
scissors the late Colonel Henry Clipped
off q. corner OF the telegram and thus
Tire actual date disappeared. Then Colonel
Henry, in his own hand, annotated the
telegram April, 1894 The colonel, how
ever, neglected to remember that the
month of April had only thirty days, for
in the document there is a mention of the
thirty first of the current month.
The unauthenticity of the telegram could
have been established had the court at
Rennes appreciated the Importance of the
error. Finally it developed that in the
telegram, where the words Gee canaile de
D''-appear the initial 3D. had been sub
stituted for the letter ''P." The original
copy written by M. Oribelin. the keeper of
the archives of the War Office, carried the
letter ''P." The scratching upon the pa
per was apparent, but NJ. Bertillon, the
handwriting expert, testified that the let
ter "D'' was correct. 1t is now claimed
be was in error.

NO MORE BLANK CARTRIDGES.
The TumuItuous Events of Christmas
Eve Niqht End Them.

The noisy demonstration of Christmas
the indiscriminate shooting of loaded pis-
tolls as well as ones with blank cartridges
has been the cause of much adverse COM
mentl in the city.
Mayor Powell says that another year
he will not permit blank cartridge pistols
to be used as the privilege was abused.
AS he had given orders to allow this
the police let it go on and some people
began using loaded pistols. Aldermen
and citizens alike condemn the conduct
INDUCED in.
Many window glasses on Fayetteville
street were broken and some awnings are
peppered with bullet holes. There being
many in Cross & Linehan's and multi

Wynne Drug store. The glass case in
front of Cross G. Linehan's is smashed
This Christmas eve was q noisy one,
but the inclement weather of Christmas
day ended much of the noise, though
horn brigades made terrible din. A ia
vorite diversion was to put torpedoes on
the street car track in order to have
the car wheels explode them. Young
fellows in all kinds of fantastic costumes
paraded the streets.
The pistol shooting was the only seri-
Gus trouble. 1t should not be allowed in
the future, as though but one injury is
reported, many were in danger and these
yesterday told of narrow escapes.
No serious accident and but two arrests
for drunkenness give Raleigh a pretty
good Christmas day record.

stages Of lock-iaw, and everything posi-

Lawrence HenIy Cut by

AT A W0MAN'S HOUSE
Full OF Whfskey, Henley Tries to Shoe!
Strowd and is Seriously Cut in
Several Places. StroWd
in Jail Without
Bond.

There is a section in Wake county
which was once visited by terrific cy-
clone. The velocity of the wind reached
such a great rate that for the space OF
a mile everything was cleared away
Houses and barns were blown down, trees
were uprooted and several persons lost
their lives. Since that time this section,
which, by the way, is about five miles
northwest of Wake Forest IN the bend OF
Neuse river, has been known as the
'.Earricane''
In this section there lives yeomanry
peculiar to itself The people visit the
towns only about once in year. They
farm and fish the river for a living.
great deal of blockading is done IN the
bend of the river. There is always
full quota of cases on the Federal court
docket from the "Harricane." An old
gentleman by the name Of Lyon-fan.il-
iarly known as Scrap" Lyon Is the Jus
tice of the Peace in that section. He is
loved and respected by all the ''Earrl-
canites." His word is law. He rules the
natives with a stern, but merclful hand.
Every once in awhile some one is sent
to jail here, charged with an ARRAY, as.
sault with deadly weapon and once i'll
awhile a murder. Two years agos 4
man named Mangum was acquitted of
the charge of murder of a native named
Griffin. Only last year man was sent
UP for thirty years for the murder OF an
old woman
Sunday night last the deputy sheriff
OF the township-which is New Light
brought young white man named Willis
Strowd to jail. Strowd is charged with
attempting to murder another white man
named Lawrence Henley.
When interviewed in Jail last night
Strowd gave a reporter an account CT the
ARRAY He said that Henley and he had
been drinking some white lightning
ard when pretty full they concluded to
call upon woman by the name of Eulah
Bailey who lives by herself After they
had been there sometime Henley began
to get boisterous and commenced to curse
the woman. Strowd says that he re-
AlnonstEated with him and told him he
Nould have TO quit. Henley, with an
cath, said he would not quit and that
Strowd could not compel him to. From
this the quarrel ripened into fight. Hen
ley drew his pistol and snapped 1t twice
IN Strowd's face and Strowd to protect
himself, SO he says says, grabbed the pis-
tot and cut Henley several times with
his knife. The pistol, which was a five
Shooter, only had three balls in it and
was snapped upon the two empty cham
bers This fact very likely saved Strowds
life.
Henley is seriously wounded but Q tee
phone message from the Falls of Neuse
says that it is thought that he will re-
cover In the meantime Strowd will re-
main in Jail awaiting the outcome Of
Henley's injuries
