Her Death Mysterious.

Concord, June 22.-Last night
train No. 20 on the Southern
struck something on the track on
a fill near Harrisburg. The train
was stopped and a search was
made by the engineer, but moth
ing could be found. The agent at
Harrisburg was notified and, az
compal.ied l'y section man
search Was instituted for the OBJ
ject which the train struck.
About 1 o'clock the body of Miss
Ella Huneycutt, the is ,"ar-oId
daughter of Mr.. Culv n Etuney-
cutt, If Harris burg, Was found.
Earlier III the night the girl left
home alone and her father had
been out on the streets inquiring
fer her. AS soon as her body was
found, he was notified but, strange
to say, he did notgo to view it till
a late hour in the night. There
seems to be something mysterious
about the death of the young lady
and 1t is believed by many that
she had been killed and placed on
the track. Her body was consid-
erably bruised, both legs and an
arm being broken.-Special to

Surgical Operation on Sky-Scrapers.

Amputation is to be applied to
the Singer building at Liberty
street and Broadway.
Its top is to be sliced off and
three additional stories sandwich
ed in between the seventh and
eleventh floors.
Work on the scaffolding began
yesterday and a small army of
mel will be occupied night and
day until 1t is completed, the un-
dertaking being confined to the
original corner building, which
is to be part of the monster Al
story structure now going up
the tallest Office building in the
world.
According to Ernest Flagg, the
architect, the slicing is necessary
in order that the History build
ing shall conform in height and
outline to the new History addi-
tion.
Instead of actually raising the
four top floors inciosed under the
mansard roof the structural ma
terial will be removed in sections
to the ground. The eighth, ninth
and tenth floors will then be built
on, after which the old mansard
roof, inclosing the four addition
al floors will be replaced section
by section.--New York Herald.

Traits the South Cannot Afford to Lose.

Are the OH Traits Being Lost?
ls the caption of an editorial in
the last issue of The Worlds Work
relative to the new industrial life
of the South. 1t answers that
some of the finer things in the
life of the Old South must give
way and are giving way before
the onward march of industrial
progress. That is one danger that
generally appears in the wake of
commercial progress. Such pro-
gress, in it's very nature, necessi-
tates the leaving behind of some
things that were held dear under
the old regime. 1t is to be hoped
the new life will not seriously i'm
pair the reputation for courtesy
and hospitality the South has
throughout the world. This is
ne thing that should be retained
no matter how wealthy this Sec
tion may become and we believe
it will be retained. The average
visitor to the South is impressed
by the courtesy and kindly hospi-
tality Of the people. in some other
sections this courtesy and hospi-
tality do not exist in near the
proportion that they exist here.
The difference is one of those
things that have always been
creditab.e to the South Winston
Sentinel.

REWARD FOR BODY.

nomah and several government
tugs are still searching for the
body, hut the abs snce IF the four
battleships cripples the Navy De-
partment's facilities and it was
deemed advisable to influence out
siders to join in the search.
From Norfolk comes the report
that at the Norfolk Navy yard it
is stated that the body of ordi-
nary seaman F. R. Plumblee has
not been found. Before he left
for Washington yesterday, Rear
Admiral Emory gave the Asso-
ciated Press correspondent copy
of the official list of bodies recov-
cred. This list confined 10 names
including that of Plumblee, and
showed that Midshipman Muir

Reports generally agree that
the wheat crop in this cection
will be the best for years. A
gentleman who sells harvesting

says it will be the best in five

this week. The corn crop is also
reported looking we'll but the

will do no good until there comes

LEXINGTON AND DAVIDSON COUNTY.
Blind Tigers Doing Business. Epidemic
OF Typhoid Fever Prevailing.
Lexington Dispatch, June 10th.

| One of the most promi n n
farmers in the county, a man OF
wealth aud standing, while here
yesterday expressed himself for.
chilly on the way the town au.
liberties and the Lexington mer
chants neglect the country peo-
pie in the matter of providing
hitching places. He said, and
said truly, there was no place and
that it was very disagreeable to
farmers to come to town, hitch
their stock here and there and
then be ''cussed out" hy people
who object to their hitching. He
declared he was going to make
Salisbury and Spencer his market
points.
Sheriff Dorsett returned Fri
day night from st. Louis, where
he went to buy horses and he did
not bring any with him. He tells
us that the market is higher than
he ever knew it to be. He saw 81
car loads of bronchos, wild, un-
broken horses, sell for from $50
to $50 a head. The. market is
from 500 to $40 higher than when
he made his last trip out there.
According to this, horse flesh is
about as valuable as anything
else, in these days of high prices
and prosperity.
There is no question abo u t
"bljnd tigers" doing prosperous
business in Lexington. They are
here. They don't seem to be un-
easy as they have not moved back
very far from the main road. Do
the police know of their exist
ence? Everybody else does. Has
the town gone to sleep on this
question? Where is the Anti-Sa-
loon League? Where are the tenn
perance forces? Have they all
gone out of business to give the
"blind tiger" full sway?
Suits were instituted Monday
against the Wennonah Mills by
Miss Maggie L. Earnhardt and
W. P Baltimore, on account of
the accident of the falling eleva-
tor week before last. Miss Earn
hardt is suing for $4,000 and Mr..
Baltimore for perhaps $1,000.
J. M. Fritts, adm inistrator, sues
the Oneida chair factory for per-
haps $4,000 on account of the
death by gasolene explosion OF
j. R. Everhardt, some months
ago.
Ground was broken last week
for the rebuilding of the First Re

We learn that there is quite a
lot of typhoid fever over the
county at this time, especially ID
the Jersey settlement, where there
are several families stricken, in
some instances every member of
