DEATH OF MISS BUMPAS.
Daughter of Rev. Dr. Bumpas of
Raleigh, Died Sunday Night
Father in the East.
Special The News.
New Bern, Aus. 28. One of the
saddest deaths that ever occurred in
New Bern was that of Miss Jessie
Bumpas at 10:30 o'clock Sunday
night. She was the only child of
Rev. Dr. and Mrs. R. F. Bumpas, of
Raleieh. Several weeks ago she
came here to visit the family of Mr.
J. A. Meadows and was taken ill,
typhoid fever soon developing in a
most virulent type. Everything that
skilled medical treatment and ex
cellent nursins could do was con
stantly done for her relief, but to no
avail.
To make the case peculiarly sad,
her father Rev. Dr.! Bumpas, pastor
of the Edenton Street M. E. Church,
Raleigh, is absent on a tour through
the Holy Land, and was not informed
of his daughter's critical condition, it
being thought best not to apprise
him of the fact as he would be un
able to reach home in time.
The lines have fallen heavily upon
Dr. and Mrs. Bumpas, they having
lost their only son with the same dis
ease a few years ago.
The young lady's remains were car
ried to Durham for interment. Rev.
G. T. Adams, pastor of the Cente
nary M. E. Church here, accompanied
them. ' There were few dry eyes at
the railway station yesterday morn
ing as numerous friends took leave
of the sorrow stricken mother who
was almost heartbroken beneath the
burden of her double grief.

Salisbury, Aug. 28. The funeral
cf Mr. James R. Springle, who died
t the home of his father in the
South Ward- yesterday morning
early, was held this morning at 10
o'OlocfcfTltffir Sp'ringle was .about 28
years , of age and Ms death, was due
torr consumption. He leaves a wife
end two children.
Mr. Arthur E. Reynolds, who has
been sojourning in New York city
for several weeks purchased a fine
auto, car in the Metropolis, and is
making the journey to Salisbury in
his machine. He is expected home
tomorrow, having left New York on
Aug. 6th, making several stops en
route.
Dr. Kinard, of Knoxville, Tenn.,
the new pastor of St. John's Luther
an Church, in this city, will arrive
in Salisbury Thursday and will at
ence take up his duties as pastor
of the' congregation here.
Capt. James M. Bowles, supervisor
on the Salisbury-Norwood branch of
the Southern, has tendered his resig
nation, effective yesterday and will
accept a more flattering position with
another road. Capt. Bowles has
made a most efficient supervisor and
much regret is expressed at his
determination to locate elsewhere.
The term of Rowan Superior Court
which convened yesterday with Judge
Ferguson on the bench does not
1-romise to be as sensational as was
expected. It is not now known
whether the cases against the ac
cused murderers of the Lyerly fam
ily or the ones against the alleged
lynchers will be called at this term
of court or not. It has proven so
far to be an exceptionally quiet term.
There is by no means the number of
rttendants which were in evidence
at the special term early in the
month and everything is moving off
quietly and without any excitement.
Mrs. Jane Wright, the aged mother
of Mrs. R. M. Pendleton, is seriously
ill at the home of her daughter on
South Lee street, and her death is
expected at any hour.

CABARRUS CQURT.
ONE THOUSAND BUCKET SHOPS.
Now Supported in the United States
How Shall They Be Suppressed?
Merrill A. Teague offers the follow
ing suggestions in his concluding ar
ticle on "Bucket-Shop Sharks," in the
September Everybody's:
"What Senator Kyle reported in
1898 is more cogent now than it was
then, for the 400 bucket-shops have
grown to be more than 1,000 and a
mighty nation, riding on the crest of
a wave of unparalleled prosperity, is
daily more headlong in its rush to
play the game thieves are operating.
But, you ask, what is the action the
Congress ' should take? I will an
swer in a sentence:
f "Pass, an act which . willr-bring" "the
wires leased by the telegraph and
telephone companies to brokerage or
commission houses, of whatsoever
kind, under the jurisdiction of . the
Interstate commerce commission,
with power vested in the commission
to verify reports made by the com
panies and to prohibit the use of
privately leased wires by bucket-
shops.
"For a quarter of a century these
companies have been swelling their
c'lvidends with toll taken . from
knaves who have robbed and swind
led almost without restraint. The
time will come when a parental gov
ernment will check this. The com
panies will assert and try to sustain
in court, that brokerage-use of their
wires cannot be construed as being
interstate commerce. Can it?
Within the realm of brokerage, wires
are leased for transmitting quota
tions and orders. Quotations are
the steam in the boilers of the bucket-shops;
without them the thieves
would have nothing with which to
drive their engines nothing against
which their dupes might bet." ,

Special to The News.
"Concord, Afig. 28. The August term
of the Cabarrus county Superior court
convened yesterday morning, with his
Honor Judge R: B. Peebles presiding
and Solicitor Heriot Clarkson prosecut
ing. . The calling of th jury brought
forth many excuses and Judge Pee
bles excused several who had been
drawn for service".
As soon as the grand jury was drawn
and sworn in ; Judge Peebles delivered
his . charge and the criminal docket
was taken up. The most prominent
case is that against -Will Cannon for
the killing of Calvin 'Taylor on July
4th at a negro picnic 'at Cedar Grove,
near this city in No.-"2 ' township. The
criminal docket will consume the most
of the week.
Early Sunday morning Chief of Po
lice Boger caught a young negro boy,
Theodore Wright, in the store of the
White-Morrison-Flowe Co. He went in
by a cellar door, a trick he "has play
ed frequently before, each time raid
ing the cash drawer and carrying off
what change was left there. This had
become so frequent and common that
Saturday night two of the employes
of the store remained in the building
until 5 o'clock, at that hour being re
lieved by Chief Bogeri- Abou 7 o'clock
the boy came in the usual way and was
caught. The cellar door is-a double
one fastened on the. inside by a bar.
The door gave suffiient space for the
boy to get his hand" or a thin bar
through, arid by this -.means lift the
bar, opening the door.? The little ' ne
gro has been caught at ., this kind of
work before. ! '
Hon. E. Spencer Blackburn, the Re
publican nominee for Congress in this
district, J. Frank Linney and Thomas
Settle, of Asheville, are to be in. this
city on September 22 nd for the Repub
lican county convention.; . They come
at the request of the chairman of the
party in Cabarrus eounty. and onthis
day the Republicans : are expected
to open up the campaign.- Just now
there is not much in Republican cir
cles by way of news-Fhere is a on

didate for this position ' and he is be

men and women could go without the
evil influences of intoxicating drinks.
My patronage has not been suffi

It was a little more than a year

walls, and it was to be closed on

Despite its ecclesiastical backing
the business has not prospered.

DEPREDATIONS BY WOLVES.
Raids on Live Stock Are Causin
Heavy Losses to Ranchmen.
Ozona, Tex., Aug. 27. The depre
aations of gray and lobo wolves
upon live stock this part of the
State are causing serious losses to
ranchmen. Robert Massie, who
owns a ranch near here, reports
that forty-three head of his steers
were killed in one month by wolves
Clay Montgomery, another ranchmen
suffered a loss of thirty head of
grown steers from the same cause
during the same period. Arrange
ments are being made for a grand
hunt for wolves, wildcats and coyots
by the ranchmen of this and adjacent
counties.
It is planned that not less than
three thousand armed men and sev
eral hundred trained wolf dogs shall
take part in the hunt. It will cover
a territory of more than one hundred
miles square.
Coon in Chicken House.
A "coon," and a full grown one, was
discovered last night in the chicken
house of Mr. Rogers who lives on
North Caldwell street. The discovery
was made by Mr. G. C. Martin who
lives next door to Mr. Rogers. Late
in the night he heard a noise in his
neighbor's chicken house and thinking
it was a chicken thelf awoke Mr,
curred at his home-that city early. houge and there made the discovery
luis.uiuruiuB. mi. m,CuCau that a full grown "coon" was in the
president of the Coco Cola Bottling h()use ffi
of the chickens. The animal was cap
tured.

Of this trinity of odd characters
bird-freaks, we might call them
which we are following up, the bright

The plumage is of sharply contrasted
black and white, with yellowish buff
on head and neck; the legs are like
stilts, while the bill, is long and slend
er,5 curving up in a way to make one
wonder how the creature can eat. The
first pair which I ever saw, on the
shore of a Dakota lake, made a pro
found impression on me by their ap
pearance and graceful movement as
they ran jauntily about pursuing some
sort of insect prey.
The saying that .what is meat to one
may. be poison to another is well ex
exempified in the avocet. For our part
we have to exercise great care in that
western country to avoid drinking al
kaline water, whereas the avocet dis
likes the Insipid stuff which we extol
aspure. Seemingly it is as oDjecuon

induce him to remain for the summer.
