Well. It is just that way; that which we love best, and hope the most from, is quite sure to fail of its full measure of relaization. There were two men-friends once, who had cared a great deal for each other, and one of them was about to realize something for which he had toiled a good deal, and from which he had hoped for great results. That he had sacrificed his friend somewhat was tnie, and that he added a sting of insult to the wrong was bit ter, no less than true. The friend re sented it keenly, and one day another friend said to him; “Why don’t you punish him for that? He is clearly in the wrong, from a le gal, no less than an honorable, stand point.” '"So,” replied the party aggrieved, “I shall not do that, although at first I was fully determined to do so; not so much because of the matter itself, as because of the insult following it. Rut I looked at It this way; 1 have had a hard struggle myself, and always I have noticed that when I looked for ward with peculiar interest to any cer tain thing, that someone always man aged to spoil it with a sting. I know just what this matter means to that man, and after a long fight with my self. I determined not to be the sting to his anticipation. That’s why.” W*. A. D.. in Nashville Banner.

Policemen Shot And Negio Killed Excursion of Charlotte Negroes to Columbia Marked by a Pistal Duel in Which a Ne gro is Killed and Two Char lotte Policemen Injured, The negro excursion, which wag run from Charlotte to Columbia yesterday, ended trogically last night when a pistol duel between John Reeves, a Rock Hill negro, and two Charlotte policemen resulted in the death of the negro and the serious wounding of Policeman J. R. Eskridge and the slight wounding of Policeman J. T. Wilson. Policemen Wilson and Eskridge ac companied the excursionists to Colum bia yesterday to preserve order on the train and the trip was made back almost to Rock Hill without incident. Between Fort Mill and Rock Hill and near the latter place, John Reeves, a negro from Ro:k Hill, who was in the smoking compartment of a car, fired a pistol out of the window. Policeman J. T. Wilson went Into the car at once Zemo Cures Eczema, Pim ples, Dandruff, Prickly Heat, Sunburn ZEMO CURES ECZEMA, PIMPLES, dandruff, PRICKLY HEAT, SUNBURN. and offords your skin comfort dur ing the hot weather.

Tryon Drug Co. and told the negro to hand over his pistol. *‘I won’t hand over nothing. I’ll shoot you’ d—m you,” said the negro and rose up from his seat to execute his threat. The policeman struck the negro with his fist and grabbed his wrist. While they were scufflling be tween the seats the negro fired twice; one of the shots struck Mr. Wilson in the hip and at the same time Officer Eskridge exclaimed, “My Gog, John, I am dead.” Mr. Wilson says he looked up then and saw Eskridge fall and drew his own pistol and fired one time, killing the negro instantly. The negro was left lying in the seat where he was and the train crew carried Mr. Eskridge into the baggage car. There they found that he had been shot in the side. Mr. Wilson said he had not no ticed the other officer’s presence in the car until he heard his exclamation that he was shot. The negro’s body was put off at Fort Mill and an inquest will be held over it tomorrow. None of the other excur sionists joined in the disturbance and caused no trouble of any kind. The news of the shooting was sent at once to the police department here and Chief Christenburk, with another officer or two, me», the train at the Southern station. Mr. Eskridge was taken from the baggage car, placed on a stretcher and taken to the Presby terian hospital. Although he was weak fro mthe loss of blood, he did not seem to be in a dangerous condition, and was sleeping well in a short time. This morning, however, he was not doing so well. He is shot through his right lung. Dr. C. M. Strong is attend ing him. He is being kept very quiet and it will take time to see what the result will be. His condition is con sidered serious and no effort has yet been made to probe for the wound, owing to his weakened condition. Policeman J. T. Wilson has been on duty only a short time as a regular policeman, though he has been serving as policeman in North Charlotte for quite a while and has proved himself a cool and courageous officjer on more than one occasion. Mr. Eskridge also is a suburban policeman, serving in Belmont. Both policemen were to re ceive $5'for their services in going on the excursion to preserve order. Each o fthe ‘policemen claim that they fired the shot that killed the negro and Mr. Eskridge says that he fired three shots after he was wound ed.

J., July 14.—A donk ey and its owner, Andrew Munzen berger, and William Joyce, milkman and poundkeeper, figure in a scrap that has led to impounding the .donk ey, the arrest of its- owner and the poundkeeper, with no end in sight. It is alleged that Munzenberger allowed the donkey to run at large down High street. Joyce was appointed pound keeper for the sole purpose of corral ing the animal with a couple of cows, also belonging to Munzenberger. Joyce kept the donkey in his barn, and its continued braying kept his family awake at nights. Yesterday Joyce is alleged to have tied the donkey’s mouth with a rope and a corncob in such a manner that the music was shut off. Munzenberger ap pealed to Agent Cozzens, of the S. P C. A., who arrected Joyce. He is un der $100 bail for his appearance be fore ’Squire Mankins as soon as the ’Squire can find time to hear the com plaint more fully.
