states and was reported killed in one

ever, he returned home. to find a

needing a pension, he took no steps
to have the error corrected; but now
he has become an invalid and has
applied for one. The pension bureau
tells him it cannot be allowed as he IS
officially dead. His reply is, that being

THE COCAINE PERIL
\ Practice Which is Rapidly Growing
Among the Negroes.

One of the most seductive prac-
tices. and a practice which by the
way. is growing with wonderful
rapidity among the negroes, is the use
of the fearful and ruinous drug, CO.
caine. This morning two negroes
were fined $50 at the recorders court.
OF course they will have TO work out
the fine Both negroes admitted that
they were in the habit of shifting CO.
calne. One of them stated that he
had been using the opia.e for five
years and that now he could not live
without it.
When they were taken into their
cells the effects Of the powerful drug
was beginning to become dissipated
and the effects of the reaction could
easily been detected in the faces and
actions OF the negroes. They were all
a tremble. muscles twitching, eyes I'M
duly brilliant, pupils enlarged, and in
their very faces could be read their
souls desire-one more sniff Of the
drug. Charlotte News.

Prophecies His Death a Few Min

Especial 10 The Messenger.)


Goldsboro. y. G, August ga ne
morning who a few moments before
he W a taken off prophesied that he
would soon pass in his checks He
was n stranger here and the only
name that h was known by was 7 1T
He said tina he had beer working Tor
the Hines Lumber Company AT Kin
ston and that a short while ago he in
tended TO get married and wrote TO
his old mother in Virginia whom he
knew had a little money that h had
saved from her meagre earnings He
told her that he was paralyzed and
asked her 10 send him twenty dollars.
In a short while he received the
money and when he went 10 a store 70
buy a shirt in which to be married
he was stricken with paralysis. He
recovered from the shock and came
or TO this city. 1t is presumed that
ne vas on his way home. He went
into q restaurant this morning II
got breakfast. While he was eating
he told his tale and said that he was
going 10 have another stroke of par
alysis all on account Of telling his old
mother d lie. IN a few minutes af-
ter he finished eating he had an
other stroke of paralysis and died in
n short while. II IS a strange story
but it is vouched for by reliable ne
groes who heard him tell his tale.
West Hines. a negro who is wanted
here for violating the prohibition
laws. has come to grief in Richmond.
H. mt in tho money for his hnnd
here n left just before the present
session of Superior court. A colored
excursion returned last night from
Richmond and the excursionistS bring
the news that West was gambling with
some other negroes and knocked n
over with a chair and robbed him. He
was arrested and exhibited a roll of
bills and offered to stand his own bond
but his money was refused. Some OF
the eXcursiOniStS We're detained in
Richmond as witnesses at h trial
which was to come up today. The
negro excursion to which reference is
made had considerable trouble on the
way back home last night. There was
q car for white people OF the train
and a white man named John King
from this city was taken along to act
as a policeman. Another white man
named Holt from near Princeton was
passing through the negro al and
was knocked senseless with a bottle
and robbed by two negroes. King was
sent for and he was knocked down
with a bottle. The two negroes who
did the work jumped off the train the
first time it slowed up. King and
Holt both had bad scalp wounds.
William Howell, q years old, and
Mamie Hinson, Is years old, of Saul

ter and made her go home and Howell
was warned to stay away from that
locality. The father of the young
lady was in the city today to see if
he could have the marriage annulled
by Judge Webb who is holding court
here.
Arguments on the passenger depot

THE PHILADELPHIA BANK FAIL
IRE.

The wrecking Of that Philadelphia
banking company looks like another
case of where the directors did not di-
rect the affairs of the concern. The
only attention they seem to have paid
to it's management was to accept the
statement of the president accOmpan-
led by the certificate of the bank ex-
aminer that it was all right. They do
not ever seem to think there is any
necessity for attempting to excuse
themselves for their neglect of duty.
We cannO1 see how it can be called
any thing but gross neglect Of duty on
the part Of directors Of a bank for the
president to be able to loan half the
assets of the bank to one person, and
that on insufficient security.
These Philadelphia bank directors
by their neglect Of duuy and indiffer-
ence to its affairs allow the president
to swindIe it's customers out of hun
dreds Of thousands of dollars and then
remain silent as TO whether there be
any criminal pr~OsecutfOns.'
This is not a case in which they can
plead ignorance or that they were de-.
ceived by the false reports of the pres.
ident. They were appointed directors
for the purpose of preventing just
what occurred by keeping posted on
the affairs of the bank, seeing that the
officers did their duty and that the
funds of the bank were taken care of.
When they neglected to do this they
failed in their duty anc are morally
guilty of participation in the crime of
the president. 1t was their place to
know what securities the bank held
for the loans made. The statement Of
the bank examiner that The securities
were good should not have been N
sidered by them as sufficient. They
should have looked into the affairs and
management of the bank. Had they
done their duty in this respect it would
have been impossible for the cashier
to carry his practices of deception to
any thing like the extent he did.
No man should accept the position
of director of a bank or be allowed to
occupy such position unless he will
perform the duties of that position.
1t looks as if some parties outside
this bank were in collision with the
president. Where did he get the good
collateral he showed to the bank ex-
aminer if this were not so, and what
became of those securities after the
examiner made his report? These are
questions the public would like to have
answered, if it is a fact that he pur-
sued his curse.
Even such practice OF the part Of
directors for It was their duty to
know whether the bundle of other
securities contained sufficient col
lateral for the loans, and it looks as if
it would have been easy % find out
whether these were the anne that
were shown to the examiner.
Which ever turn YOU take leads to
neglect of duty on the part Of the di-
rectOrs.
The whole thing can be summoned
up in this statement: The directors
thought the president hones5 and left
the entire management of the bank in
his hands: that is if none of them were
in collision with him.
