A Shooting ARRAY.

Trenton, Special.-Last Saturday
night there. was a shooting affray in
the section below here known as Miles
Mill From reports it seems that a
negro by the name of Charles Bland
went to the home of another negro. Jim
Dorm. Dorm invited Bland in and ex-
tended the courtesies common to their
society. 1t was not long before Bland
began to show his hot temper and
make free use Of words that did not
show proper respect for Dorn's family,
whereupon. Dorm requested him to
make his exit. Bland threw up his gun
and shot. The load took effect il
Dorn's thigh, almost completely sew
ering the femoral artery. Dorm lived
few minutes and Bland made good
his escape. Bland has served one term
III the penitentiary for. shooting a ne
gro, and his race do not regard him as
a saint. There has. been some, talk of
making short work of it if the crimi-
nal is caught. Dorm was not looked
upon as a bad negro and was vice
president Of one of their burial. soci-
eties. If Bland is caught they are not
likely to do anything violent.

A TERRIBLE CRIME.
Murde' and Outrage in Roanoke,
Virginia
MOTHER AND CHILD ARE KILLED
Young Business Man Goes iioiRo ta
Find HIS wife and Child In i Pool
Of Blood.

| Roanoke, Va, Special-When George
Shields, a we'll known young business
man, reached his home in the heart o1
the city at the luncheon hour Saturday
he found his three-year-old daughter
! Mildren lying in pool of blood on the
reception hall floor with two ugly
| wounds on the head.
Following blood stains from the din
ing room to an upstairs chamber, he
found his wife lying in pool of blood
on clothes closet floor, with her
shroat cut from ear to ear and her head
horribly hacked. Mrs. Shields manag-
ed to gasp; "a large black negro man
came through the kitchen and attacked
me in the dining ROOM"
Besides this there is no clue to the
criminal. Mrs. Shields had been out
ragged after which her assailant dealt
her several blows on the head with a
hatctchet, fracturing the skull, dragged
her up stairs where he cut her throat
with {, razor and threw her into the
closet, fastening the door on the out
side: The girl was struck to hush her
cries. The dining room floor was COW
cred with blood and showed there had
been a terrible struggle. The doctors
entertain but slight hopes fol- the re-
covery of either. the mother or the
chilli.
Ever since the. discovery of tie trag-
edy large crowd OF citizens has been
in the vicinity of the city jail watching
to see if the officers carry any one into
the building. At o'clock Saturday
night the crowd numbered more than
1000 men. Mayor Cutchin has ordered
Capt. Francis, of the Roanoke Blues
military company. to assemble his men
as precautionary measure.
BY order of the mayor all the sa-
looms were closed at o'clock.
While Judge John Woods, OF the
Corporation Court. was pleading from
the jail steps with the crowd in the
streets to preserve order, some one In
the crowd hurled a beer bottle at him.
The missile barely missed it's wark. At
IL o'clock the crowd had dispursed.

SOON ro..YO1E ON TREATY
Opposition to Panama Canal Rapidly
Losing Ground.

The Washington correspondent OF
the Charlotte, N. c., Observer says:
ut is the opinion OF the Senators
who have studied the situation very
carefully that the opposition to the
ratification of the canal treaty began
to disintegrate within the adoption OF
the Culberson composite resolution as
amended by the Republicans to IN
clude the words If not in his judg-
ment, incompatible with the public
interest This important resolution,
the only one that has been seriously
considered in the Democratic caucus,
was allowed to pass without debate on
the part of the anti-treaty Democrats.
Such a degree Of significance Is at
tached to this silence on the part OF
the obstructionists that some Sen
ators who are supporting the treaty
today felt safe in predicting that Sen
ators generally would be willing 10 al
low the treaty to come to vote as soon
as speeches shall have been made by
Senators Clark. Clay. Mallory and
perhaps two or three others who de-
sire to speak very briefly, the first
of next week. Advocates Of the treaty
are feeling more comfortable tonight
than at any time during the past few
weeks.
Mayor Eatou and Prof: Charles F.
Tomlinson today appeared before the
House committ ee on public buildings
and grounds in. advocacy Of the Win
ston public building bill, which car
ries an appropriation of s160,OO0. Rep
resentat'Se.. w. w. -Kitchin, who in

says that every point to
be urged in support of the PROPOSE
ton was forcibly advanced and that
members of the committee, servetal of
whom are familiar with the situation
1t WINSTON. manifested much interest
n all that was said. Mr.. Kitchin says.
le does not want to hold out any
alse hopes. but that he feels this bin
will pass il any such legislation is
enacted during the present session,
shich is doubtful. 1t will be Of in
crest to people residing. in several
North Carolina cities to know that the
