Patrick Sweeny Dead,

Friday afternoon, about 1920 o'clock, as
Mr.. Sweeney was returning home, when
he arrived in front of the residence Of J.
j. Champion, on South West street he
was knocked down, in the street, near
the gutter, by a horse and buggy, said
to have been driven by Bob Burns, col.
cred, who keeps a grocery store on West
South street, near the railroad crossing.
Mr.. Sweeney died yesterday at about
2:30 p. m, from the injuries he received.
1t seems that Mr.. Sweeney had been up
town to order a load of wood. He lived
on West Cannon street, not far from Mr.
kee Fanns store.
A reporter interviewed Bob Burns last
night and he admitted having passed the
spot where the deceased fell but said he
did not see him (Mr. Sweeney at that
hour; that a young 14-year- boy was
with him pointing to the boy); that it
was about 7:30 when he passed up South
West street; that his horse was walking;
said that he could see as small a thing
as a cat at that point of the street
The reporter than called at the resi-
dence of the deceased, and the opinion
there is that Bob Burns ran over the
deceased. One scar on the right hand
showed that an accident had occurred;
besides, parties in the neighborhood stated
that Mr.. Sweeney had bruises on both
sides of his body.
Mr.. w. A. Champion, who lives just
opposite the place where the dead man
received his death-blow, told a reporter
that he saw Bob Burns driving very
close to the gutter where Mr.. Sweeney
was walking (the sidewalks being so bad
that the old man took the street,; that
Bob was driving fast; that he could not
see Mr.. Sweeney when he was struck, as
the buggy was between him and the de-
ceased; but that Burns drew his horse
up when about fifteen yards from the
fallen man; turned his head around to
see what damage he had DONE then drove
on at rapid rate, without getting out of
his buggy, as he thought he saw Mr..
Sweeney raising himself up, which he
partly did, but fell back unconscious.
Mr.. c. E. Chlldress, who keeps a gro
Gerry store on the corner of Cannon and
South West streets, and Mrs. Bunch ran
to the PROSTATE man, picked him up and
carried him to his residence on Cannon
street, where he died yesterday afternoon
at $50.
No one claims that Bob Burns rode over
Mr.. Sweeney maliciously, as he had no
cause TO nold grudge against him.
Mr.. Sweeney was between 80 and 80
years of age; a native of Ireland, having
been resident of Raleigh about sixty
years; had many friends, leaves a wife
and two children; the oldest, about Z, is
at Belmont College with the Sisters of
Charity, the youngest. 3 years of age, is
with her mother; was a member of the
Sacred Heart church and also a member
OF Dot
city.
Funeral today Sunday at 3 o'clock
from the Church of the Sacred Heart.

ers. The North Carolina Sunday School
Association has entered the field for the
sole purpose of helping to reach these de
sired ends.
The work which the organizations is do
ing is without respect to any one denoml
nation but in the interest of all. The ex'
ecutive committee is composed OF the lead
ing Sunday school workers of every evan

his entire time to the work Ca thing which
few of the denominations working sepa-
rately would be able to do and by having
a Headquarters in this city, where full in
formation may be receiver cohceIHlhS any
phase of work. the greatest possible good
may be accomplished in favor OF all de-
nominations.
The association advocates especially bet
ter methods Of work and better prepare
tion on the part of teachers. A special
effort is being made to introduce the
Home Department, the Cradle Roll, Rally
Day and Decision Day, the Teachers
Meeting and the Normal Training Class,
the Messenger Department, the Baraca
and Philothea Glasses, etc, into every
school in North Carolina. In order to do
this. as rapidly as the counties are organ
lied, superintendents of these various de
partments are elected to look after and
push these various lines of work. Core
spending officers are elected III every
township and thus the individual schools
are reached. The work OF these county
and township officers is directed and SUI

NOW IT'S BRIBERY
Whiskey Man Offers Old Man
Money.
IF You Vote Against the Dispensary You
Will Get Substantial
Help"

The news came to the News and OBJ
server yesterday afternoon from an abb
solutely reliable source that an old man
in this city, who is very poor, had been
offered money to vote against the dis
pensary.
The report has been current for days
that a campaign fund of not less than
five thousand dollars had been contributed
by local saloons, distillers and wholesale
dealers to carry the election for saloons
in the city of Raleigh. Evidences of \
plentiful campaign fund have been abunG-
ant, but no proof of actual bribery had
been offered.
Last night a member of the News and
Observer staff, in company with one of
the best men who lives in the neighbor-
hood of the man approached with an
offer of a bride, visited the gentleman.
He confirmed the report and said:

and having influence, that if I would
help the saloons in their fight, that he

him that he sent me there, that I could

there was no doubt but that there were
numerous other cases like his.
