McKee, were covering a barn on the premises of the former, about three miles frbnVtlje city, when the scaffold on which they were standing gave way and Mr. James Pharr and ,Mx. MeKee fell to the ground. They had a drop of filteen feet and both were painfully in jured. Dr. McCombs, who was at once sent for, found that neither of them had sustained the breaking of any bones, but that both had received in juries to the back which may lay them up for some time. Mr. McKee's injuries are more painful than those of Mr. Pharr. A Farmer Loses IIi Itlouey. Day before yesterday M. "NY. Purr, a farmer afternoon Mr. from Cabarrus county, came to this city and sold a bale of cotton. Late in the afternoon, after having become intoxicated, he drove to the old Charlotte academy grove, in the "Mechanicsville" section of the city, where he camped for the night. He put under his head his coat, in one pocket of which was $50 of the proceeds of the sale of the bale cotton, and went to sleep in his wagon for the night. When he awoke yesterday morning the coat was lying a considerable distance from him and all of the money was miss ing. It had been stolen from under his head while he slept. The facts were reported to the police but there is no clue. Hathyhead. Bushyhead, the chief of the Chero kee Indians, was in the city yesterday.

He dresses plainly, but wears a silk hat of the style which prevailed seven or eight years ago. The old man is really Rev. Bushyhead, being a Bap tist preacher. He talks tolerable Eng lish and is extremely dignified and se date in his manners. His tribe, which, we believe, numbers about fifteen hun dred souls, has gotten through the win ter without much suffering, although they have endured a great deal of cold and trying weather and have had sev eral deep snows. The old man will con tinue his journey to-day. mail Matters. Owing to a misconnection at Rich mond no northern mail was received in this city yesterday at noon. Mr. L. M. Terrill, division superin tendent of the Southern railway mail service, with headquarters in Atlanta, was in the city yesterday on a tour of general inspection of the offices, mail cars, &c. The monthly case examination of mail agents in this division will be re sumed Sunday. A clerk from the super intendent's office will be in the city at that time to examine the agents who run into this city. 1 The postal law permits letters having a three-cent stamp (one full postage) to be transmitted to the place of destina tion.

The latest case of theft reported oc curred Monday night,and the booty was so small as to render it by odds the most contemptible of the season. The mould was stolen from a plow-stock on the farm of John Schenck, near the Rudi- sill Hill mine, the clevis pin taken with it, and the plow-stock thrown into an old shaft in the neighborhood. The stolen property was worth perhaps 50 cents, and it is for such paltry sums that men will run the risk of the peni tentiary. 1 ' ' Meeting: of Kxecutive Committee.

Wilhelm j. the great violinist did not arrive in the eity until 7 o'clock last evening, and consequently It was twen ty minutes to nine when the curtain arose on a small audience, but one which, to use a much abused phrase, was decidedly appreciative, being com posed largely of musicians. The even ing's entertainment was fhort, and the usual programme must have been con siderably curtailed. Of the wonderful Eerformer himself, there is nothing to e said in the way of criticism. He has reached that degree of perfection in his art which defies it, even at the hands of those skilled in the art of which he seems in a measure, to, be the embodiment There Is a .softness and purity in bis tones which few supposed the violin capable of, while his playing from begining to end is full of expres sion. We have rarefy, if ever, seen an audience in Charlotte wrought up to a higher pitch of enthusiasm. At the end of each piece he was called back, but did not respond to any of the en cores. The piano renditions of Mme. Carre no were also much enjoyed, and were encores in every instance. She seems to be chiefly remarkable for her wort derful technique, which could not have been attainedlmt by the most arduous and incessant labor. It is a matter of general regret that the two did not have the inspiration of a larger audience. A Legitimate Triumph in Medicine. Dread and despair fall upon the community when a terrible epidemic, like the cholera or yel low fever, suddenly desolates our homes: yet, itfl the while, a more insidious, but no less fatal foe, enters thousands of households every year and carries oft the flower of the family in the early flush of manly youth and budding womanhood. People call it consumption, or "decline." it is not, in most cases, the tubercular phthisis or consumption of the lungs, which is the peculiar malady in cli mates luce those of the British Islands and New England, but a general decay or arrest of the vital processes of nutrition. All the doctors agree that there is no remedy for this but Cod Liver Oil but they are constantly met by the obstacle or Inability on the part of the patient to swallow or retain it This repulsion is entirely overcome by Scott's Emulsion of the Oil with the HypophOBphites ef Lime and Soda which is agreeable to the tastend an unequalled nutrient and tondeforthebody nerve and brain. . 5 Consumption Cured.
