NEGRO KILLED ON ROCK
PRAIRIE.
Result OF Night Intrusion at the
Home Of Mr.. w. E. ,eraham-Mr.
Graham Gave Bond Here
Yesterday.

A negro. giving his name as Will
Kelley, was shot and killed by Mr..
w. Il. Graham at Mr.. A. B. Grady's
place on Rock Prairie last Sunday
afternoon. The circumstances, as
learned by the Eagle, are about as
follows:
NThursday night a negro attempted
to enter the window of the room of
Mr.. Graham's daughter from the gal
lery, and when she gave a terrified
alarm he fled. making his escape. Ef-
forts to apprehend the intruder fol.
lowed, Deputy Sheriff Conlee visiting
the scene, but were not successful.
Suspicion later pointed to the party
subsequently killed, and Mr.. Graham
and Mr.. w. E. Candy, having made
an arrangement with the deputy
sheriff, Conlee, to come out Sunday
night, went to hold the negro in case
he should get word and try to make
his escape, Upon their approach, and
before the arrival of Mr.. Conlee. the
negro ran and was killed
Mr.. Graham had a preliminary hear
ing yesterday before Justice McGee of
this city and made bond in the sum
of $4,000, which he readily gave. 1t
was stated in the evidence at the
trial that Sheriff Nall, who was
there Sunday morning, requested
Messrs. Candy and Graham to keep
on the lookout for the intruder and |
hold him if caught. The tendency of
the evidence was to show that Mr..
Graham had no idea of killing the
negro when he went after him, but
that he did not propose that he should 1
get away.
= The offense, which resulted in the
killing, is one which is under no cir
tolerated in this country.
md short shrift is usually made of
hose believed to be guilty of invad-
ng the sacred precincts of the home.

BAR HARBoR AIR-sHIP.

A. V. Wilson, Bar Harbor's flying ma
chine man, exhibited his airship there last
week prior to going to New York with it
for public trials. Mr.. iison has been at
work for many years on his invention In
his early life ne was an aronaut and
: parachute jumper. He has constructed
several models, and the latest one seems
to be one that will work. 1t is on the
Rropiane principle, heavier than air, but
with movable and fitting planes or wings,
in which respect it differs radically from
many aroplanes, notably the Wright
brothers invention. Machinist and
others interested in air flights who have
seen Mr. Wilson's models are OF the opin-
ion that ne has hit upon several very orig
inal and important features that will
probably be incorporated into future air
navigation.
The present model is thirty-six feet over
all, from tip to tip of the wings or planes,
OF which there are four, two at either end,
and each wing having spread Of oil cloth
K Il, with a six-inch separation bet ween
the upper and under surfaces in the mid
die, but sloping to the edge, and sealed all
round. In word, convex top and fiat
under surface. These wings, at each
''fapping' movement, displace fifty feet Of
air, and with each revolution OF the driv-
ing shafts move nine feet through the air.
The four wings are moved by ga
horsepower aropiane motor in two units,
for safety in case one motor should stop
for any reason while the machine is in
midair. BY means of long levers applied
to the shafts of the motors, the wings are
rocked rapidly back and forth. One Of
Mr.. Wilson's most distinction inventions,
and part of this machine, is a movable
fulcrum which, under control OF the oper-
ator, enables him to tilt the moving wings
to any desired angle while flight is sctu-
ally going on. 1t is this invention, as
much as any other, that attracts the atten-
ton of experts to Mr.. Wilson's machine.
Thirty-six feet long over all, the present
model will weigh some 800 pounds when
equipped, and is designed tn carry two
men, make 2O0-mile fight, land on the
water and start sloft again from the
wafer

COUNTRY LIFE.


What the Communication Created by
President Roosevelt Is Doing.
WASHINGTON OcT. 16- President Roose-
velt's mail is stacked high these days with
letters concerning the commission on
country life, which he recently created,
and the number Of communications on
the subject is growing greater daily.
A rather strange feature Of this cores
pondence, considering the far-reachine
significance OF the commission, is that so
far it has contained no word OF adverse
comment from any quarter. The sug-
gestions are all constructive, and many OF
them will prove OF great help to the COM
mission when it formulates its plans Of
campaign.
Many OF the lettersto the President are
from men whose names are known every
where, but the bulk OF them are from the
men who are most vitality interested the
farmers themselves. The general tenor Of
the farmers letters shows that not only
are they deeply concerned in the work OF
the commission, but that they have clear
headed ideas OF the Presidents purpose in
starting tne inquiry ana Vi "nA' Ing ou'-

The farmers themselves, however, agree
that the educational facilities IN the coun-
try districts ought to be made over 80 a.
to ut country conditions and needs more
closely.
number OF writers urge the need OF
introducing some sort Of elementary agri-
culture into the schools. Not all are OF
this opinion, however. some MAINTAIN
that there is danger in trying to make
agricultural instruction too academic.
The one point in which all the farmers
without exception agree with the Presi-
dent, is that the greatest trouble with ag-
ricultursl life is it's isolation. The remedy
for this that is most frequently proposed
is better reads.
