 MT. Williams spoke as follows:
 MT Chairman and Gentlemen of the Conventions All of us were very much sur prised and excited this afternoon, to use no stronger words, at what purported to be copies of telegrams which had been sent by our nominee to Mir Carmack and others in this city. I want to tell you that but one telegram has been received. Mr Carmack not only received no tele- gram today of the character that was pnhlished but never received a telegra m from MT Parker in all of his life And nobody received a telegram containing the language in that infamous volunteer pro- duction Loud cheers and applause). A telegram has come from MT. Parker to Mr Sheehan, however, which l shall read in A moment and it is so important that vou should know what it is that after I have read it. shall hand it to my friend. the governor of my state, MT. Vardafnan. and have him read it over again. When vou shall have heard 1t. you will note that there is not one word about requiring or demanding or asking. or requesting that anything should be placed in the demo- cratic platform.

The crowds in the city during this

Although there were five large hotels

Trap shooters have been very
scarce in this State up to the present
season, but now there are over a
dozen clubs in the State with mem
berships from twenty-five to nifty.
Raleigh can We'll claim TO De the

other towns have been Organized our

greater interest and the attendance
at our weekly shoots are on the in
crease. We have had many discour-
aging propositions to run up against
this season by having bad traps, but
now we have two that are almost
perfect and in a few. more practices

some good shooting. 1t is always a
pleasure to have visitors, out and
especially the ladies. We would only
be too glad to have some lady MEM
berS, every attention would be given
them and with a little practice would
become good shots.
The Hunter Arms Co, of Fulton,

to our club a beautiful SilVerloVing
cup, valued at $4,000. This cup Will
be shot for each week and the mem

his property for this season and will
have the same chance at it next sea-
son, it being so late in our season we
thought best to carry it for q whole
season before it should go to the
owner for good. The one winning it
next season will vie with the one
winning it this season for final owner

These people make the best gun
sold on the market today, and for
trap shooters it has no equal. as the
majority of the members of our club
are now using it.
They have been especially kind to
our club, last year giving us a nice
gun which was shot for at our annual
shoot at the fair. A State associa-
ton was formed this year and our
club has been given the honor of
holding the first tournament, which
will be held on our club grounds,
Cameron field. August 9th and 10th.
The program will consist of 200 tar
gets per day for each man and there
will be many substantial and costly
prizes given in each contest. We eX
pect one of the largest gathering Of
trap shooters that has ever visited our
city and we hope to have the encour-
agement of the citizens of Raleigh afd
county by attending this shoot and
by the business men of Raleigh IN

life of the State Association depends
much on the success of our first tour

Winston Salem, N. c.. June 25.-A
colored man tagged down the incom-

last night just in time to prevent
what might have proven a bad wreck
on the long trestle, two miles below

A horse ran on the trestle and the
train was held an hour or more un
til the animal could be removed
Capt Il. b. Glenn and several other
Winston Salem people were on the
train, and when the Information was
given out that a colored man saved
the train from being wrecked there

Southern should reward the colored
man for his action.
1t was figured out that had the
train been on time that it and the
horse would have met on the trestle.

ly on the premises of another at night
and sentenced to serve one month in
Jail at hard labor. Judge Lindsay did
