Major Guthrie. the negro who
is now in the county Jail under
sentence Of death. is to die for
the crime that he Is charged with
having committed THAT Of mur-
dering his wife. The supreme
court Of the state Wednesday
handed down an opinion IN which
it was stated that no error was
found in the trial below. That
is the opinion of the court Of fn-
al appeals and all that stands be-
tween the negro and death on the
gallows Is the interference Of the
governor. who has the power to
pardon or 10 commute the SEN
tence as he may see proper.
When the news was told the
prisoner yesterday the negro
took it quietly and again denied
that be had murdered his wife.
The governor will set the day
for his execution and then he
will be approached for a pardon
or commission Of the sentence
to life Imprisonment. -1lA

senQefs.

There was a bold crime done
between the union station and
the coal shute. on the Southern
road Tuesday morning, or else it
was a foolish act that is calculat-
ed to get somebody In trouble.
This was the throwing of a rock
through the passenger train Of
the Southern road--the morning
west bound train. ~ M
The rock was thrown entirely
through the train and while no
one was hurt, it was no fault Of
the person who threw the rock.
The officials CT the road and the
officers of the city and county
are looking for the one who
threw the stone.
According to the best informa-
tion obtainable, and it is said that
there was at least one eyewitness
to the person who threw the rock.
it is learned that as the train was
coming in towards the union sta
tion that a negro man stepped
from behind. some obstruction,
where he was screened, and hurl-
ed a large rock at the trair, which
was running at the usual rate Of.
speed. The rock struck the rear
coach and passed through the
window and out another on the
other side In doing so several
passengers had narrow escapes,
and while the broken glass fell
on all rides no one was hurt. '
Mr.. J. A. Woodall. ex,chiefof
police for Durham, who is now
in the secret service ofthe South

ginning of his trouble.
When the court came on in
Raleigh the negro was not on
hand and the court issued a cap
las for the arrest. of the negro
and also a notice to the bonds
man to show cause why the bond
should not be forfeited to the
government. The negro kept
out of the way, hiding away
from the federal process servers,
and he was not taken. .fi.,ss-
Then a new move was made.
A warrant was issued by Justice
of the Peace j.. E. Owens. on
affidavit of Mr.. Greenberg, in
which the negro was charged
withihaving obtained goods pn-
der false pretense from Mr..
Greenberg that is in groceries
and the like. This warrant was
placed in the hands Of Sheriff
Harvard and it was not long un-
til Deputy Sheriff Belyin had his
man. The arrest was made in
Patterson township, after quite
a lively chase. 4.,s. ,s.....5s..s,.. 80 a. 81
= When the case was called be-
fore Justice Owens there was
first an attempt to Withdraw the
states warrant and turn the
negro over to the federal court
this evidently being the prime
object in charginga felony-buti
later this was abandoned and the
court ordered that there be a
hearing OF the charge far felony
under the state laws. This was
done and the negro was sent to
the higher court being committed
to Jail in default of bond.
e. AS the matter now stands the
negro is charged in the state
courts with having obtained
goods under false pretease from
Mr.. Greenberg and the federal
are waiting and
ready to take him in charge on
the matter of jumping his bond.
This will be done just as soon as
the state courts get through with
him. .s. #..*rn
For a while the matter created
a good deal of interest about the

The Perplexing Appendix.
A Physician Who Believes
that Many Cases of Appen-
dicitis can be Cured With
out Use of Knife.

"Ao""hS Hlduy otoudCH
troubles to the revolt of the ver-
inform appendix has caused
many poor mortals to subisct
themselves to the surgeons
knife for the removal of the pre-
sumptively offending member.
One gentleman in Augusta was
thus operated upon; but the
medical carver found that he
had never had any appendix at
all. An eminent surgeon in the
U. S. Navy declared that he had
cured about 90 per cent OF his
patients with sweet oilinjections,
without the employment of the
knife.
DIR, Joseph S. Baldwin, writing
to The Baltimore Sun, says:
Chow about those terrible
pains our patients had many
years ago, in The region where
all pains are now called appen.
dicilisg 1t is my honest belief that
our fathers had appendicitis.
About as often as people have it
now, and got well, too, without
even knowing what was the
matter with them!
''It is 70 doubt true that a
great many cases get we'll with
out any treatment and that some
get well under the worst kind
of treatment, but with intelli-
gent treatment very few cases
should prove fatal.
"When you have a well .devel-
oped case of appendicitis your
patient will have vomiting, grea
pain in right lilac region, chills,
fevers, often tumor and obsti-
nate constipation. That there is
danger of an appendicular abscess
into the peritoneal cavity is true,
but the danger is often exaggera
ted. If rupture or perforation OF
the appendix does not occur
near the beginning of an attack
the probability of an abscess
bursting into the peritoneal cavi
ty is not very great. These ab-
scesses are liable TO make their
way in various directions, and as
soon as we are suro of The pres
ence of pus, or rupture of the
appendix, the patient should be
operated on. But even pus cases
will often get we'll if left entirely
alone
"Ihe abscess usually bursts
into the gut, as this is the point
of least resistance, the pus is
evacuated over the rectum and
the patient gets well. The abscess
may burst into the bladder or
into the pleural cavity and come
out through the skin, and the
patient might recover. As to the
treatment. Osiar says, there is
no medical treatment, and the
knife should always be used. We
differ even with such eminent
authority, and have seen cases
cured without an operation. In
the first place, the patient should
be kept in bed and absolutely
quiet! The diet should be only
the blandest liquids. Hot appli
