Car Of Towels Burned.

Fire of probable incendiary
origin destroyed a car load of
goods shipped here for the Kerr
bleachery on the sidetrack lead
ing to the bleachery yesterday
morning about $3.50 O'Clock.
The Car was run on the side
track Saturday and had not been
accepted by the bleachery. 1t
contained 20 cases of towels sent
here to be bleached by the Ros-
noke mills Of Roanoke Rapids.
The blaze was discovered by the
night Waterman at the Cannon
mill. The Waterman said that
about $3.50 O'Clock he smelt cot
ton burning and that he and the
fireman went through the mill
but did not see any blaze. About
$3.50 O'Clock he CONTINUED thu i'll
spection and when he went to the
rear Of the mill he saw the blaze
from the box car on the side
track, the fire being on the op-
posite side Of the car from the
Cannon mill. The fire depart
ment was summoned and made
prompt response, but the blaze
had gained such Roadway that
the goods were practically con-
sumed before the alarm was
turned in.
There is little doubt that the
car was set on fire but there is
not the slightest suspicion as to
the guilty party.
The officials of the bleachery
state that they had not received
the goods and had no idea as. to
their value. The loss OF the
goods will probably be paid by
the railroad and it is understood
the car was insured concord

B2dleIS,

Centervjlle, Md, Nov 80
The whipping post for wife
beaters las been revived in
Maryland and a throng gath>
ere at the Jail to see the Sec
ond punishment of the kind
ever inflicted in Queen Anne
county and the first since the
revival of the old law The
culprit was Lawrence Stiner
He requested that his wife be
summoned to witness the a.
tonement the law exacted
from him, saying that he de-
served it and that he wanted
her to see him punished
Mrs Stiner was given a chair
in the Jail yard near the
whipping post and grimly
watched the proceedings
Stiner took the first three
strokes with scarcely more
than a whimper but before
he fourth descended thu
muscles of his shoulders and
arms were drawn into tense
knots from the pale whites
livid marks, filled with bruis-
ed blood, which lined his
shoulders and extended down
his side.
When the sixth stroke fell
a sigh of relief escaped the
throng that had gathered to
see the whipping, a blanket
was thrown about the
victims shoulders and he was
hurried to his cell, where the
jail physician applied oint>
ment to heal the cuts

legged that his majesty while prince OF
Wales contracted morganatfc mar
rage with the elder daughter Of Ad-
miral Sir Michael Seymour at Malta
in 1890. The crown called the admiral
as a witness and he testified that the
daughter in question, now the wife Of
Captain Napier OF the British navy,
never had seen his majesty before
1898. when the king called on the wit
ness at Portsmouth. His only other
daughter died in 1895 and for three
years preceding her death had been
with her father at Malta. where he
was commander-in-chief Of the Med

possible for the election to have been
brought about under the conditions

remarks to an analysis of the testi-

with his thirty minority followers. Mr..
