Mr.. Carnegie is a millionaire who

Of nilifonaires and yet he IL at the
same time one Of the heartiest OF
lsz1Ehers. He says
beyond a competence for old age,
wealth lessons rather than in
ereases human happiness. The most
miserable Of men, as old age APP
proaches. are those who have made
money making their God. like flies
bound 10 the wheel those unfortu-
Mates fondly believed they were
really driving II, only to find when
tired and craving rest that 81 IS i'm
possible for them 20 get of and
they are lost--passing into moth
ingness. leaving their money behind

cause they can not take It with
them-a melancholy end much less
enviable then that Of their poorer
fellows"
How is it, then, that Mr.. Carnegie
has escaped the common doom or
the limited but unfortunate class to
which he belongs? How Is st that

So Testified Mr.. Nipper Yes
terday On Stand
OF CAMP TROUBLE
Gallagher Was Not Bruised by
Whipping; viii Gayness
Gives Story of Convicts
Conspiracy.

When Superior court took a recess
late yesterday for the day the defense
in the Nipper-Johnson assault case
had put about all it's witnesses on the
stand, including Nipper, and with the
examination of probably two more
early Monday argument will be
started. 1t is thought that the case
will go to the jury either late Monday
or Tuesday morning.
The most important developments
in the evidence submitted yesterday
were that Gallagher and Henry Craw-
1ord had formed a conspiracy to seize
a gun and kill the guard Johnson and
the admission by Nipper of having
whipped Raftery Jeffrey, a Jew, and
compelled him to eat six rashers Of
hog meat after he had refused to eat
it. These facts were brought out in
testimony OF upper, who went on the
stand after witnesses gave him, John
son, Holloway and also the night
| guard BledSOe good characters.
The testimony Of Nipper regarding
the punishment Of the Jew because
he refused to eat meat against his re-
llgion was brought by Solicitor Norris
on crOsS-examinatiOn. In telling Of
this whipping Nipper stated thai he
did not know Jeffrey was a Jew, but
that Jeffrey had told him he was an
Irishman.
In giving his testimony Mr.. Nipper
said he was connected with Wake
county for six years and Onlv res
signed to accept a position as gen
eral supervisor of roads for Greene
county. which position he now holds.
Trouble at the camp, he stated, did
not start until after the arrival Of
the two c%onvicts, Dan Gallagher and
Henry Crawford, both of whom were
continually refusing to obey orders
and rules. A convic by the name OF
Gaynus had told him of an effort b,
Crawford and Gallagher to conspire
against Johnson's life. He stated
that %convicts were whipped only &C.
cording to his orders.
Gallagher was whipped on the
feshy part Of his legs and a made
no complaint of feeling i'll, testified
Mr.. Nipper. who said hat he ate /;
hearty dinner and did not complai.
until about four o'clock in the after
noon. There was no bruises on hi
back.

Company who admits that the same

With the Democrats in full control
