Negro Boy Hurt.

Clyde Draghn, a colored lad Of
l3. was badly hurt Thursday
night by a freight train which
ran over a portion of his right
foot and mashed it off.
The boys story discloses rough
treatment that nobody believes.
He says he was coming from
University Station and had paid
a brakeman 25 cents to let him
ride. A second brakeman, he
declares, came along to collect
the fare and not having it,
Draghn was kicked from the
car and the foot injured.
The boy was taken to Lincoln
hospital and attended. Ampu-
tation of a portion of the toot
was necessary. The railroad

the matter, their opinion being
that the child was attempting to

Killed By Falling Tree.

Thomas R. Blalock, who lives
two miles from Rougemont, was
accidentally and instantly killed
last Friday morning about II
O'Clock by the falling of a tree.
The accident occurred in the
woods belonging to Mr.. Mack
Lawson where the men were en-
gagged in chopping the timber,
preparatory.to cleaning it for the
spring crops. There were four
men in the party. all of whom
were taking part in telling the
pine tree, which was about
twelve inches in diameter. II
lodged in the fall against anoth-
er tree and throwing the butt
end up, knocking Mr.. Blalock
down and falling across him. He
was crushed to death without a
wall or a groan. n- "~- r. =
His associates cut the tree off
him and carried him to his
home from which place he was
buried Saturday afternoon. He
was q member of the Primitive
Baptist church and the elder of
that denomination conducted the
funeral from the church near
the Granville county line.
The dead man was 3S years
old and leaves a wife, his father,
Haston Blalock, a brother and
four sisters. He was an indus
trious hard working man, con-
scientious farmer whom every
body liked. The horrible death,
met in the discharge of a duti-
ful hard work, something that
characterized his entire life, is a
shock to his friends there and
everywhere he was known.

Some West Durham citizens
complained because a family liv.
ing there were guilty of being
the filthiest on record. Justice
Owens went to, the house last
Saturday and found conditions to
fully vindicate the complaints.
He found Anna Strayhorn and
her son, Arch, living in "a room
with nine dogs and six chickens.
In the corner of the room was
a mattress used by the family"
both day and night. After some
persuasion the mother and son
were carried to the county home.
The dogs were given away and
the chickens sold.
