the creation OF a Southern writer whose

Will Bailey Is In trouble again
this time at New Bern where he was
engaged in Il fight and nearly cut two
men to death The following account
is taken from the New Bern Sun of
Friday:
One OF the most exciting events which
has taken place in this city lately oc-
Cured last night on lower Middle street
opposite the Hazelton Hotel. A nasty
piece OF fighting occurred right in the
business section of the city in which two
men were seriously cut.
1t seems that a young fellow named
Bill Bailey from Henderson, North Caro-
lima, was in an intoxicated condition,
and he got into row with Whit Hurt
of this city. Hurt was pretty badly cut
up as was John Havens, a cOlored shoe
maker, and a man of good character
Havens heard some one call for aid and
he went in as a peacemaker, and by do
ing so he made big mistake, for in so
doing, he got his throat cut from ear to
ear. He is in a very serious condition.
After Bailey had gotten through fight
ing in the store, he came into the street,
and ordered hack driver to drive him
to West street. The hack driver did not
seem inclined to comply with the young
mans wishes, whereupon he hauled off
and knocked the driver out of his hack
and took charge of same. However, the
driver was very reluctant to give up his
turnout. and he managed to hang on to
the bride and steered the vehicle into
a post in front of Miller's furniture store
and in that way the young man was
probably prevented from making his es-
cape. An officer appeared on the scene
about this time and Bailey was arrested
and committed to jail.
At the preliminary hearing on account
OF the serious condition OF Havens the
case was continued to await develop
ments. Bailey was required to give ST.
900 bond in default of which he was
recommitted to jail.
Charles p. Whitten was also charged
with abetting in the fight, and for as
sault with a deadly weapon on Havens.
He was bound over to the next term of
Criminal Court under a $50 bond which
had not been furnished at the time of GO
ing to press.
The New Bern Journal says that hav-
ing been attacked by Bailey with an
open knife Hurt at once began to de-
fend himself and either pushed or knock
ed Bailey into Goldman's store where he
succeeded in getting him down and be-
gan to beat him numerically. Bailey
began to call for help and Havens, whose
shoe shop is nearby. went to his assist
ance and succeeded in pulling Hurtt off.
He then reached down to assist Bailey to
his feet and Bailey doubtless thinking
that it was Hurt lunged at him with
his knife and inflicted awound that came
near proving fatal. Charles Whitten OF
Henderson, pulled Havens away to keep
him from being further injured"
Later the same paper in giving an
account of the preliminary hearing,
when Bailey was bound over to the
higher court in the sum of $1,000,
says:
Charles P. Whitten, also OF Henderson,
was given q hearing on a warrant
charging him with an assault on Havens
with a deadly weapon, and probable
cause being found he was bound over to
the next term of Craven County Superior
Court under a bond of $50, which he
secured and was released.

Alleged Cancer Specific.

A conditional and preliminary report
OF what, it is hoped, will prove to De
successful specific treatment for cancer
was presented before the Manila Medical
Society at Manila recently.
The treatment consists in making the
patient immune from the further progress
of the disease by the use OF vaccine pre-
pared from his own cancer.
Experiments have been made IN the
past eight months, both in cases where
an operation was possible and where II
was not. Variety in the progress OF the
disease has been afforded for experiment
and the results have been uniformly en-
couraging.
A number OF the patients apparently
cured were exhibited before the society
by the originators of the new method.
The medical authorities express wisti
TO watch these cases over an extended
period for possible recurrence OF the
malady before they accept the treatment
as successful.
