No Bond Issue Wanted.

Wadesboro Messenger and Intelligen-
Ger.
The Legislature has done we'll In re-
fusing to provide for a bond issue.
Especially is this true in view of the
fact that the present Legislature has
some 100000 more funds to appro-
pirate than did the General Assembly
of two years ago. 1t may be true that
the public institutions could use to
advantage larger appropriations than
it is possible for them to receive
without a bond issue, but there are
many other things to consider before
running the State further in debt,
therefore we say again the Legislature
has acted wisely in not listening to the
clamor of bond issue.

Alleged Poisoning.

As the result of an analysis oil the
stomach of Almira Gardner, colored,
who died under suspicious circumstances
at her home near Clarendon, Va, on
December 20, her husband, Joseph
Gardner, is held in custody in the jail OF
Alexandria county awaiting the aclion
of the grand jury. Strichnia was found
in the womsn's stomach. Had the
authorities of Alexandria county not
acted as quickly as they did, it is likely
that there would have been a lynching.
Gardner lived with his wife in a negro
settlement about a mile southwest OF
Clarendon, which is on the electric
line from Washington to Falls Church.
According to statement made by bis
daughter-in-law, Gardner had frequently
quarreled with his wife, and lad ex-
pressed the desire that she might die,
that he might get another wife. This
statement was corroborated by several OF
the neighbors. 1t is alleged that the
woman drank wine in which a white
powder had been placed.
