Maryland Shows to Rocky Mount.

The Maryland Shows closed their
engagement in Henderson Saturday
night. They went from here to
Rocky Mount-the third time they
have played that town we believe.
But that is the way of the Maryland
Shows, they establish a reputation
wherever they go that gives them a
"clean bill of health. to go back at
any time they wish.
The GOLD LEAF repeats that they
made good in Henderson last week,
both as to the merit of the attrac-
tiOns offered and the conduct of the
people connected with the shows.
There was no disorder of any kind
not an arrest made-and everybody
seemed to have a good time and en-
Joy the carnival. Large crowds
turned out each night, the best peo-
pie in the town, and it was a pleas
ant diversion.
The patronage was not what the
management expected, Mr.. Wolcott
informed US, but he expressed himself
as satisfied under the circumstances
and was glad he came to Henderson.
They had been treated very nicely by
the people here and he appreciated it,
If the Maryland Shows had pleased
and convinced the people that there
are some decent attractions of the
kind that are worthy of patronage
their coming had not been in vain.
This they did many persons who
are not accustomed to enjoying
such amusements expressing them
selves as glad that they came.

Had Delightful Trip.

A letter just received from William
Manning gives an interesting account
of his trip across the water from Bal
timore to Bremerhaven. Sailing on
the Doth of June they landed at $50
p. M, July 18th. The voyage through
out was delightful, the weather fine
with the exception of one night and
day of fog and the sea smooth. They
sighted three whales one big fellow
being within 80 yards of the ship
playing and spouting water as if for
the amusement of those on board.
William says he has been seeing the
sights and was in the midst of some
beautiful scenery when he wrote, but
he would rather be at home sitting on
the front porch and looking at the
back of the court house for all that

WRECK ON D. & N. RAILWAY.
Head-on Collision Near Watkins Sta
ton Between Passenger and Freight
Trains Saturday in Which Both En-.
gines are Wrecked and Other DAM
age Done

A head-on collision occurred on the
Durham & Northern Railroad Satur-
day a short distance this side of Wat
kins station, about miles from Hen
derson, in which both engines were
wrecked and three or four persons re-
ceived slight injuries, a broken leg
and broken collar bone being the
most serious. The passenger train,
Conductor W. S. Powell in charge,
coming to Henderson, and freight
train bound for Durham, ran to-
gether. Engineer Rogers of the pas
senger train, sprained his ankle, in
the jump he and his fireman both
leaving the engine when they saw
what was coming. Express Mes
senger Parrott sustained a broken
collar bone and Conductor Powell
had his head cut slightly from which
he bled profusely and his back was
hurt somewhat but he is going again
as usual apparently none the worse
for his experience. A negro named
Allen Lemay who was beating his
way on the train had a leg broken.
None OF the passengers were serious
ly hurt. TAe engineer and fireman
OF the freight train jumped in time
to save themselves when they saw
the passenger train upon them as
it rounded a curve.
| A confusion OF orders or q miscal-
culation on the part of the freight
conductor seems to have been the
cause Of the collision. The two trains
met at fair speed at a curve in the
track, the freight being unable to
make the siding before the passenger
train struck it. Both engines were
completely wrecked but did not lea We
the track.

Col. Beasley Here.

Col. W. F. Beasley was a Hender-
son visitor last week. Asked about
his rubber tire-nOn-pneumat but
having the required resiliency-upon
which he has been working for some
time, the inventor informed us that
he had finally overcome the last OBJ
stacle in the way of success, that is
solving the problem of applying the
tire to the wheel, the construction of
tire and rim being such that this
was difficult until a new idea was hit
upon. Col. Beasley's invention is built
on dOuble-truss system, and every
mathematical problem involved
is claimed to have been figured
out with exact precision. The tire
has already been put to practical
test, and one that was used for three
successive years never needed re-
pairs.
Col Beasley's invention is regarded
by many experts as a positive solu
ton of the tire question. 1t secures
TO the user sufficient resiliency to
meet the demands of his machine
and the absolute certainty of trans
portation. This tire is the result of
ten years of labor, the inventor says,
and the finished article which is now
ready to be placed before the public
represents the investment of large
sum. Here is hoping that our friend
may realize everything that he thinks
he has in it,
