YANUl' DOWNED HIS MAN.
Bat It Took Mix Skats to Hit mm
Babber "Dummy.".
In .the dead of night six pistol
shots rang oat in rapid succession
in the postoffloe building, and the
sounding echoes of the reports stop'
ped the few podestrains arid gave
them food for excited thought. ln
siife the building night clerk T B
SYwxcef, Jr., thought that he was
fighting a bloody duel with a bola,
bad robber. But when, at the Birth
shot, the "man" fell to the floor, he
discovered that he had been made
the Tiotim of a practical joke by his
fellow clerks, one or some of whom
had prepared for him a nerverack
ing surprise in the form of a dummy
burglar.
Mr. Yancey is very reticent this
morning, and no one knows the
exact particulars of the encounter.
At 'any rate he was startled last
night iwhen he saw in the deep
gloom in front of the vault, the
form of a man. The hand was raised
sastjbough he had been surpiised
and vjver the head was a big black
mask.
To B&y that Mr. Yancey was sur
prised would be slating very mildly
a very severe form of nervous excite
ment. It was enough to make the
pulse go fast-r, too; for there he
stood, alone in a big building; and,
halted there surprised, stood a bur
glar, big and brawny; and burglars
are sometimes desperate.
But Mr. Yancey never flinched.
Quick as thought he had out the
larger of two pistils. He -pulled
the trigger, but when the 'smoke
cleared from his eyes, he thought he
saw the burglar 6tep back. He had

Five times did Mr. Yancey vull
the trigger; but when the last baJl
was gone, the robber was still there.
SMfrreaohed for the other weapon;
and at the first shot the man fall;
all was quiet, and when Mr Yancey
want to examine his dead, he found
out the hoax.
The balls of the larger pistol had
been extracted and te first five
hots were iuad with blank car
tridges. This speaks well for Mr.
Yancey's nerve, for he killed the
robber with his first bullet.

Salisbury Herald: Our bright little
neighbor, China Grove, seems to be
infeated with burglars. About a
week ago the store of Mr. J L
Holshouaer was broken into, and now
another one has been ented. Wednes
day night some one broke into the
store of Mr. J M Winecoff. The thief
entered through the fLor of a shed
room and then forced a door which
opens into the store. The amosnt
goods stolen cannot be correctly de
termined. Several articles o jewelry,
pair of shoes and all the money in
the store a handf nl of coppers
was taken. There is no clue to the
robber.

festooned with garlands and flowers,
and here, on a large snow white
rug, the young couple who exchang
ea vows, stood, l be parlor was
elaborately decorated with ivy,
chrysanthemums and ferns, and the
beauty of floral tffeot was enhanced
by the. glow from tbe pink shaded
banquet lamps, which seemed con

being allowed to lend radiance to
eucb a scene.
There were no attendants, the
marriage being a very quiet affair.
The parlors were filled with rla

The bride wore a s ylish tailor

or six men in the road, said to be
from West field, foing in the opposite

giving the road, when the Westfield
crowd opesed fire on the McBryde
brother, some twenty-five shots be

battle cleared away it was found
tbat Charley McBryde had been
seriously shot. His brother Johi
went to some residences in the neigh

mov'd him as far as possible in the
direction of Crcsman's, but a
