BOY STABBED TEACHER.
Professor Allen, Of Graham Seriously
Wounded.

Graham, N. c., Sept. 10. Prof.
A. T. Allen, of the schools here,
was stabbed today by one of his
pupils and his condition is con-
sidered serious. The stabbing
was done by one John Lawson
Shields, a student, who is about
16 wears of age.
During the excitement that
followed the stabbing the young
fellow made his escape and at
last accounts had not been taken.
From what can be learned the
trouble occurred on the play
grounds at recess. The students
were falling in line when there
was some disturbance and Pro-
fessor Allen called them down
and slapped young Shields.
When about four or five feet
from Allen the student, ]. L.
Shields, made a lunge at his
teacher striking with a knife.
Thestroke wasa downwardone,
a cash some two or three inches
being made. This was in his
right breast and side. Several
physicians were summoned and
after dressing the wound it was
sewed up. 1t is feared that his
lung was pierced by the stab.
Professor Allen says that
young Shields made a second at
tempt to cut him but he kicked
the youngster and this probably
saved him getting a fatal wound.
He says that there is no doubt
but that young Shields was SO
Infatuated that he attempted to
cut his throat.
The affair caused considerable
excitement for some time and
school had to be adjourned for
the time being. Efforts are be-
ing made to capture young
Shields but he is still at large.

We notice in the papers that
the authorities Of Raleigh have
been hauling up the women that
conduct bawdy houses and learn
that they have been fined one
hundred dollars each. The new
law under which these arrests
were made was passed by the
last Legislature, and if the au.
thorities are in earnest they may
accomplish something along this
line. However, if these arrests
had followed the passage Of the
law sooner, we would have had
more in faith in the idea that
some good was 10 be the result.
We have not forgotten the result
that followed the efforts Of a
policeman in Raleigh that was
honestly at work for the cause
that there was so much bowling
about.

SHORT LOCAL ITEMS.


Calvin H. Medlin was arrested
by Sheriff HARVARD last Thurs
day on charges from Oxford,
and he was carried to Oxford to-
day. The charge against Med
lin is that he has abandoned his
wife. ~
The county commissioners will
meet next Tuesday for the pur-
pose of opening the bids asked
for some time ago for the build
ing of the new road, completing
the Roxboro road to the county
line.
7. ]. Howerton, son of r. T.
Howerton, who has been spend
ing the summer at Asheville, is
here on a few days visit before
leaving for Missouri, where he is
a student in the College of Osteo-
pathy.
A trial in which damages were
asked for defaming the charac-
ter was set for trial before JUS
tice Owen Thursday, but when
the time came for the trial
the matter had been settled
by the parties concerned. The
case grew out of the fact that
NJ. Haskell had NJ. Kruger EN-.
ployed in his store at Cary, and
Kruger claimed that Haskell had
accused him of stealing three
hundred dollars from him, and
for this Kruger claimed damages
in the sum of $50.
An interesting trial was helc
in Oak Grove Township last
Thursday, when Moses Fletcher
and William Fletcher were trieC
for an ARRAY on the grounds of &
church. After hearing the evi
dence the presiding magistrate
fined them for the ARRAY anC
dismissed the charge of distrib.
uting religious worship as the
fight took place after the congre'
cation had been dismissed. The
evidence brought to light the
fact that whiskey had been SOLD
on the church grounds during
the service, and later some one
may be arrested on this charge.

THE next term of Durham Su-
perior court for the trial of civil
cases Kwill soon convene and
claims for blood money will be
presented. We are not condemn
ing all suits for damages, for
some of them are just, but many
of them arise from the fact that
the firm or individual sued is
worth the price, and there is
some likelihood Of securing his
money. The matter of right or
wreng seldom enters into the
question, but the mrin idea is to
get the money.

The evidence brought out in
the case in Oak Grove township
this week that whiskey had been
sold at the church during SER
vices, and especially when the
crowds were large, should cause
the entire community to blush if
such really is the case. For it is
a fact that no man is going to
set up in business Of this kind if
there are not people that want
what he has to sell, and in most
cases the crowd is with him or
he will not long hold out.

how some man convicted of
some big crime submits to the
punishment after fighting the

If he realizes that he is guilty

does he fight so hard before
reaching the conclusion?

A PRINCE OF DWARFS..

Career Of the Famous Count Joseph
Boruwlaski.
! The most famous dwarf who has
dourished in the British isles is un-
doubtedly Count Joseph Boruwlaski,
whose long life-he died at the age OF
ninety-eight years-is another example
Of the longevity Of his kind. Boruw-
laski stood only three feet three inches
In height This did not prevent him
from marrying a beautiful woman or
from mixing In the best court society
Of the Georgian period. He was very
amiably received at Carlton House by
George ". q few weeks before that
monarch's coronation. So struck was
the king by this dwarf's physical grace
and mental accomplishments that he
remarked to Charles Mathews, who
had brought the little man, IF had
q dozen sons I could not wish them a
more perfect model Of elegance than
the count"
Boruwlaskfs last days were spent In
Peaceful retirement in the city Of Dur
ham. He tells US that In spite of the
theory that dwarfs grow all their life
he never added quarter Of an inch
to his three feet three inches. When
lady asked him for his autograph, he
sent these lines:
Poland was my cradle.
England Is my nest,
h Durham Is my quiet place
Where my weary bones shall rest.
He had known Marie Antoinette as a
child, and he was living when Queen
Victoria was crowned. 1t Is in the
Church of st. Mary the Less at Dur
ham. close TO the carnedra1 IN which
his body lies, that you read the follow
ting inscription:
Near this spot repose the remains
a. Count Joseph Boruwlaski, a native
q Pokucia, In the late kingdom of Pc
land. This extraordinary man meas
ured no more than three feet three
inches In height, but his form was well
proportional, and he possessed more
than common share Of understanding
Ind knowledge. After various changes
az fortune, borne with cheerful resig-
nation to the will of God, he closed his
life In the vicinity Of the cathedral on
Sept. & 1887, in the ninety-eighth year
Of his age."-P. T. o. of London.

FIRST OF INCREASED
PAY ON NEXT MONDAY
Postoffice Clerks and Carriers
To Receive 1t.
is SOME DISSATISFACTION.

On next Monday the city postal
clerks and carriers will receive their
first pay under the increase granted by
the last congress. Each of the clerks
will receive an increase of 500 per
year. while the carriers will receive
$50. This is because the clerks here
tofore have been paid less than the car
riers and in the endeavor TO even up.
the clerks and carriers on the salary
basis the government made this rule.
The clerks heretofore have received
$500 and the carriers $3.50. Although
there has been considerable dissatisfac-
tion in other cities over the rule re-
garding the carriers increase, they say
they have been Disseminated against
in favor of the clerks. the local carriers
have as yet not expressed their senti-
ments on the question to Postmaster
Spekenhier. The carriers generally
feel that they have been Disseminated
against. but are willing to stand the
discrimination.
