SENTENCED TO HANG.
Jury in Massey Case Find the Defendant
Guilty Of Rape,

The case of the negro, Sam Mas
sey, charged with the crime of
rape upon the person of a negro
woman named Lucy Houser, was
concluded last Thursday evening,
the jury bringing in a verdict of
guilty.
On Friday afternoon Massey
was brought before the bar and
was sentenced by Judge Webb to
be hanged on November 18th b.
tween the hours of II a. m. and l
p. m.
Massey was very ably defended
by a trio of lawyers, Messrs. R.
Lee Wright, T. G.. Furr and M. H.
Hatcher. The prisoner %contended
that he never saw the Houser wo-
man until confronted by her at
the city hall after his arrest. The
State, however, made out a case
against him and the evidence was
satisfactory to the jury. The
prosecuting witness is a negress OF
quiet, unassuming demeanor is
very intelligent and told her story
in detail in a convincing way which
tore all the marks of plain truth.
According to her testimony the
crime was a most brutal one, and
if Massey is really the guilty
man, as the jury has pronounced
it to be, he richly deserves the
rope. The prisoner has figured
somewhat extensively III the po-
lice records here, but this is the
first time he has been charged with
anything of a very serious nature.
It is said that he is not at all
bright, while entirely responsible
for his actions. It is rumored
that an effort may be made tc
have his sentence committed to
imprisonment for life.

Some Interesting Figures From Tax Books
Of the County.

THE WATcHMAN stated last
week that the tax books for 1908
had been turned over to the sher-
if and the township tax collector.
The tax books, with their array of
figures, tell some interesting
things and things most citizens
and tax payers would like to
know something about. The
books show the assessed valuation
of real and personal property in
the county to be $9,955, 422,
SIS, O2O, 1856 of which is credited to
Salisbury township, The total
taxes assessed against this valua-
ton is 1927, 463.O 3. Salisbury
pays $72,341.6 SO of this sum-.
The county contains 4,907 white
polls and 1,118 colored, making a
total of 5,925.
There are 314, 075 acres of land
with q valuation of 50, 9 ,O94
and 572 acres of timber and min
eral land assessed at So, $50.
There are 1913 town lots in the
county, $500 of them being in
Salisbury township. 4,429 houses
have been listed at 1855, O22.
Is dogs are valued at $1,000,
Salisbury township having 81 of
these animals listed at 500 each.
Only 700 sheep at 1916, while Is
goats are placed at $244, 1924
hogs are supposed to be worth
$35, ia and $500 head of cattle
at $113, 034. The mule population
is given as 2,599 at a valuation
of 1852, $50. This is something
over $500 each, which will strike
one as quite q low price for s
good mule, and something like
this ratio of valuation will ne
doubt be found to generally pre-
vail, if any of our readers choose
to figure it out.
Farming implements are placed
at 1858, 1925 and mechanics tool.
at $12, 773. Firearms, $1O,9}3
jewelry owned by citizens $27,397
musical instruments S75,O1S
liquors $11,44C; cotton $50, 800
Household and other furni
ture, 1898, 286; provisions of al
kinds $36, 1855. The cashon hant
in the county when the list.
were made, was $3.50, 239 anc
the ridiculously small sum OF
81, 622 of this amount has been
listed in Salisbury township.
This would show Oh it's face that
the town folks are much worse off
than the country people IN the
matter of actual cash on hand.
In addition to the above the
Southern Railway Company,
North Carolina Midland, the Yad-
kin, Southern Bell Telephone
Company, Pullman Company,
Southern Express Company, W.
7. Telegraph and Postal COM
panies, with other corporations,
pay taxes on a large property val
uation. We have not the figures
at hand to give the increase in
valuation over that of the previous
year.

GIRL SHOOTS SELF
IN RAILROAD DEPOT
WATTS FOR SOME ONE WHO DOES
NOT CoME-scRieBLEs NAME
ON PIECE OF PAPER.
CAUSE OF SUICIDE UNKNOWN
Carries Card of Sister in Her Purse
Was About 20 Years of Age,
Blonde and Unusually
Pretty.

Cleveland, O.-With a large crowd
near her, Emma DatZell, 1901 Coal
fax road, S. E., shot herself in the
Erie depot Thursday. She is dying
in Lakeside hospital
The cause of the shooting is not
positively known, but it is believed
that the girl had been disappointed by
the failure of some one to meet her in
the station.
The girl was 20 years old, a blonde
with regular features and unusually
pretty. She was seen to walk up and
down the waiting room of the depot,
scanning the faces Of the passengers
as they alighted from the trains. She
seemed disappointed when she did not
find the person she was apparently
seeking.
Finally, when q train came into the
station about noon and still no one
appeared to seek her, she turned into
a small room toward the rear of the
station and, pulling revolver from
her pocket, placed it at her temple
and fired bullet into her brain.
The girl fell to the floor with a
moan. Dozens of frightened persons
rushed to her side. She was carried
to the women's waiting room and
cared for until Hogans ambulance ar
rived and took her to Lakeside hos
pital.
Mrs. Walter Robinson of Niles, O..
said that she saw the girl go to
telephone booth and use it, She came
out and resumed her tramping up and
down the station floor.
Capt Beaver of the Erie detective
force, was the first to reach the girls
side. He called to her, but although
she opened her eyes, she did moi
speak The girl had stepped into q
little room just leading off from the
general waiting room, he says, but
within easy hearing and sight of the
other passengers.
There were 80 cartridges in her
pocket. The revolver was brand new
Her purse contained $1.25.

FIND BODY OF MAN IN BRUSH
Had Long Lay Hidden on Wo!cott
Mountan-AIways Been Thought
to Be d Murder.

Southington, CSnn.-The finding by
berry pickers on Thursday Of the
skeleton of a man which had long
lain hidden in the bushes on Wolcott
mountain revived the story of what
has always been thought by the people
of Southington airl Wolcott to be a
murder. Four years ago Robert Perry,
who lived at the foot of the mountain
disappeared after receiving a legacy
of $4,000 from England. Later his
wife disappeared after telling a stor}
to the effect that Perry had gone to
England to claim more money. For
weeks townspeople searched the
mountain side and even partially tore
down Perry's house and dug up the
cellar to find traces of his body. The
Southington Water Co., which EN-.
ployed Perry as a caretaker, assisted
in the search. Mrs. Perry was mar
ried three times before she met Perry,
and when the first and second hus,
bands died the medical examiner here
was called in to view the bodies.
