(Statesville, N. c., Sept 2O.-A ten
year old son of Mr.. Francis, OstWalt,
of Ostwalt, this county, was caught by
a moving belt at his partners cotton
gin last evening and almost instantly
killed. The child was carried several
times round by the belt before the
machinery could be stopped, and
every bone in his body was broken.
Millie Canada, an old colored wO-
man, who died a few days ago two
miles west of Statesville, claimed to re-
member when Lord CORVALLIS sur
rendered at Yorktown, 1881, she be-
ing at that time about II years of
age, which would make her age at
the time of her death near SO. This
seems to be almost unbelievable, but

tOlerably old man. She leaves a num-
ber of great great grand children.
Miss Sallie Johnson, the young lady
who drowned herself in an old we'll

Statesville, was a dwarf and while no
definite cause can be assigned for the
deed, it is supposed that melancholy

cause. She was seen sitting with her
feet in the well and before they could
get hold of her she jumped in, and it
being an unused well. il was an hour
before she could be gotten out, and

TRANSFER OF EXAMINERS.
Changes os Tobacco Men Made at
Several Ports.
CBy the associated Press }

Washington, Sept. 20.--The Treas
ury Department has just made tenn
porary transfer of tobacco examiners
at number of ports, at which tobacco
is imported in large quantities. This
action is in line with Secretary Shaw's
policy of shifting custom officers at
intervals so as, to give to the differ
ent ports the advantage of fresh ideas
and methods and to give to the Off
cials themselves the benefit of ex-
perience in new localities and condi-
tions. Such change is regarded as
especially important In connection
with the examination of goods like
tobacco, the proper classification of
which depends SO much and neces-
sarily upon the individual judgment of
the examiner. Seven ports are af-
fected by this transfer. The New
York and the New Orleans examiners
change places, the Chicago man goes
to Tampa and the Boston man to Key
West. The tobacco at Boston will be
in charge of the Tampa examiner, the
Key West man is transferred to Phil
adelohia and the Philadelphia ex-
aminer sent to Chicago.
