Died from a Kick.

Saturday afternoon, G. W. Van
Tassel, a homesteader, living in the
Wisner neighborhood, went to the
barn and started to harness a three
year old colt. The animal was res
tive, so he tied its head close to the
manager and proceeded with the
Harvesting. While doing this the
animal kicked at him but missed
him, and as MI. VanTassel tried to
get out of the way, the colt kicked
again, this time landing on the for
mer's body near the pit of the
stomach. He was gotten to the
house and DR.. Thompson called,
the doctor reaching his bedside
early Sunday morning. He found
that the patient suffered considera-
BILE pain, with vometing spells, and
knew that he was in a very preca-
rious condition. MI. VanTassel has
long been a sufferer from chronic
trouble, and the kick augmented
this so greatly the doctor could do
but little for his relief. Peritoni-
tbs set in almost Immediately, and
Mr.. VanTassel passed from earth
about 10 O'Clock Tuesday morning.
Mr.. VanTassel came to this vi
entity a little over two years ago
from Iowa, taking up his residence
on a claim. In his dealings with
his neighbors and acquaintance,
among the latter the writer, he has
proven to be a man of upright and
honest character and enjoyed the
confidence and good will of all.
He leaves behind him an invalid
wife upon whom the blow falls with
more than usual force, and the
sympathy and heartfelt sorrow of
the community go out to her

A Never Failing Friend.

So much has been said about
creameries, that scarcely more can
besaid toconvince the scepticalthat
if run right they are a sure paying
proposition and a town builder. In
New Salem on the 18th of April,
the New Salem Butter Manufact-
uring Go. paid to thirty patrons of
that creamery $1,296.02 for milk
delivered in February, and at no
time has the figure reached below
the 81, 100000 mark for the months
supply. New Salem has several
creameries tributary to it, which
bring thousands of dollars to the
town every month. 1t is a crop
that never fails the year around,
besides. the farmer gets the use of
the skim and buttermilk. But this
is not all that the farmers get for
their work. There is the natural
increase which goes to supply the
market with cattle, and the various
uses the milk is put to when taken
back home. The creameries have
been and are the main factor in
making New Salem what it is today,
one of the busiest towns in the
state.-Mandan Pioneer.

PITT COUNTY TOBACCO.
More Bright weed Brown Here Than
in Any Other County in the COun-
try.

In the State Museum is the finest to-
bacco exhibit in America, which
has taken several years to perfect
and one of the best parts of it is from
Pitt county. In the exhibit is a large
shield sign, which was used at the st.
Louis Exposition, and it reads as fol-
lows:
Pitt county, North Carolina, grows
more bright tobacco than any other
county in the United States. while as
late as 1885 none at all was produced.
"Greenville, with its seven ware
houses, sells annually at public auction
some 100000 pounds of leaf to-
hacco, distributed all over the globe ="
Some of the excellent selections of
the leaf in this big exhibit are from
Wake county, which grows as good to-
bacco as Pitt county produces.
A comparison shield sign is as fol-
lows:
Tobacco was first taken from the
New TO the Old World by a returning
expedition sent out by Sir Walter Raj
eigh in 1884, from Wokoken (Roa-
noke Island) on the coast of North
Carolina.

THESCHAFER BONDS
Purchased By the Citizens
Bank For the State
For $215,864.

Mr.. Joseph G.. Brown, president of
the Citizens National Bank, and Mr..
Charles E. Johnson returned to the
city yesterday morning, after a visit
to New York. Mr.. Brown had ac-
companied State Treasurer Lacy to
settle the Schafer bonds definitely with
the holders in accordance with the
settlement arrived at during the last
session of the legislature.
The final settlement was arranged
and the bonds delivered and cancelled
on Wednesday at IL o'clock, at the
National Park Bank, in New York.
There were present the senior MEM
Der of the firm of Schafer Brothers,
Attorney A. G.. Ricaud, who repre-
scented them at the legislature during
the winter Mr.. Brown and Mr.. Lacy.
The bonds surrendered amounted to
$242,0 900 face value, and the sum paid
by the State was in exact figures $215.-
$4,000.
1t had been suggested that possibly
there might be complications in the
treasurer going to New York to settle
for the benefit of other repudiated
State bonds. This was improbable,
but was well guarded against. Mr..
Lacy of course had no funds with him
belonging to the State. nor did the
State have a New York deposit against
which to check the amount of settle
ment So that there was nothing
to attach, had anyone attempted the
procedure. Indeed the arrangement
was made for the bonds to be pur-
chased for the, account of the Citizens
Bank of Raleigh by the Park Bank
and to be sent here Mr.. Lacy, there
fore acted in New York merely as an
expert in the inspection of the bonds.
How this arrangement was made is
shown by the following letter from
President Brown, of the Citizens, to
President Baldwin, of the Park Ma
tional Bank:
Raleigh, N. c.. May %, 1905.
Mr.. E. j. Baldwin, Cashier, National
Park Bank New York.
Dear Sir:-Hon. B. r. Lacy, the
State Treasurer of North Carolina.
whom you know, is visiting your city
for the purpose of inspecting certain
old bonds of the State of North Caro-
lima. Upon his approval of these
bonds as to their validity we desire
to purchase them for this bank. You
will please pay for them at the rate
of 1892 per bond. Charge the same
to our account cancel the bonds and
forward to us in such way as Mr.. Lacy
may instruct you.
The bonds were duly delivered yes
terday. the money credited to the Park
Bank. and the Schafer bonds have at
last come home to roost for once and
all.

JUDGE SHOT DEAD
One of AIabama'S Best
Known Men.
1t Was Revolver Against Shotgun and
Judge Randolph Was too Slow
in Drawing His
Gun.
(By the Associated Press.)

Montgomery, Ala, May 27.-Judge
Francis c. Randolph, one of the best
known men in Alabama, was shot and
instantly killed by John Randolph, a
second cousin, in front of the latter's
Office on South Perry street.
There are several rumors as to the
cause of the tragedy, the one given
most credence being that Judge Ran
dolph had demanded a loan of money
from his slayer with the accompany
ing threat that unless the loan was
forthcoming violence would ensue.
The two men met this afternoon, and
it is said that Judge Randolph repeat
ed his threats. John Randolph pre-
sented a -barrelled repeating
shotgun and Judge Randolph attempt
ed to draw a revolver. whereupon
John Randolph fired two shots in
quick succession, Ne entering the
heart and the other the neck. Either
would have prove dfatal.
A crowd, estimated at one thou
sand persons, at once surrounded the
scene of the tragedy and medical aid
was summoned but when a physician
arrived, Judge Randolph was dead.
His slayer was arrested and placed
in the county Jail.
A few weeks ago, Judge Randolph
was an unsuccessful candidate for
the Montgomery Democratic mayor
atty nomination. In addition to his
wife he is survived by son and four
daughters
