THREE YEARS FOR BLOODSHED
And Five Years for S'ealine; a Backet
of GoodsThe Eccentricilies ol Jus
tice Judge Phillip Uit'- a Jury Left
flanded. Conaplfm?ut.
In the court house yesterday iudg
ment was passed upon three colored
men, two of whom had taken the
lives of their fellowmen, and the third
had merely taken a few little articles
that did not belong to him. All three
were sentenced to the penitentiary.
Isaiah Bronson. who killed Sam
Richardson, was sentenced to three
years ; ilenry Armstrong, who stole a
DasKet run ot goods Saturday night,
was sentenced to five years, and An
thony Allen, who killed Lee Turner,
was sentenced to ten vears The ver
dict in Bronson's case aid not seem to
create much surprise, but there was
a decided expression of disappoint
ment in regard to the Allen verdict.
The'jury in this case returned late
Monday night, as .noted m The Ob
server yesterday, with a verdict of
manslaughter, and yesterday niui n-
ing the prisoner was arraigned before
Judge Phillips to receive the sentence
of the law.
In sentencing Allen. Judere Phil
lips took occasion to make a few re
marks, m which he gave it as his
opinion that the jury should have
lounu Allen guilty of murder, that it
was clearly such to his mind. He
consoled the prisoner with the re
mark that he (Allen) had escaped the
gallows by the skin of his teeth, and
tnen sentenced Allen to ten years
hard labor in the State penitentiary.
The finding of the jury in this case
uus given rise 10 consiaerame com
ment, and but little of it is of a favor
able character. The tone of Judge
Phillips' charge was unmistakable.
and seemed to point to but one con
clusion, viz: that according to the
evidence produced at the trial, the
prisoner was guilty 01 muraer.
ihe case of the statu vs. Isaiah
Bronson for the killing of Sam Rich
ardson, was disposed of on short or
der, Bronson entering a submission
for manslaughter. The eviaence
could not have convicted Bronson of
murder, as it was shown , that Rich
ardson had slapped him in the face,
broke eggs in his pockets, taunted
him and finally followed him uo as
he backed out of Kirk's saloon, when
Jtsronson struck at him with a knife
and cut his jugular vein. Judge
Phillips sentenced Bronson to three
years in the penitentiary. -
Henry Armstrong the colored man
who was caught stealing from the
stores last Saturday night, was ar
raigned and within fifteen minutes
he was done for. Billy Taylor. C. M.
Query and Mr. Alexander took the
witness stand and testified to Arm
strong having stolen certain articles
from their respective stores, Arm
strong s guilt being clearly establish
ed through their examination by the
solicitor, and Judge Phillips passed
sentence upon him for five years.
The court went over the motion
docket and then adjourned until this
morning, when Rufus Mullis is to be
arraigned for the murder of John
Dunn. Mullis is a wmte man and is
well connected in the county, as was
also his victim. The progress of this
case will be watched with much in
terest, more, probably, than has at
tached to any of the cases yet tried
at this term of the court.
The Observer's New Folding Machine.
One of The Observer's large power
presses has just been supplied with
one of the Brown Folding Machines,
a marvel f ingenuity,and a mechan
ical invention by which papers are
folded as they come from the press
more rapidly and with greater pre
cision than could possibly be done
with human hands. 'he machine
was put up in our office and attached
to the press by Mr. R. T. Brown, the
inventor and patentee, and has been
doing some excellent work. This
machine " not only folds the papers,
but will cut and paste them together
at the rate of 3,600 per hour, thus
making itself specially useful in
handling the Weekly Observer,
which will go to its readers this week
with its pages neatly cut and the
sheets pasted. The operation of cut
ting, pasting and folding is done in
three motions of the machine, but so
rapidly that it appears to be done all
at the game instant.
By the use of this folder, the neces
sity for a rapid delivery of The Ob
server has been met. The machine
cost $600, but is voted by all who
have seen it work to be muy worth
the money.
TheMrsierr ol Allen Freeman Death
The coroner's jury which has been
engaged in an effort to clear up the
. , - .i i-i,'
mystery surrounaing me Kiuing oi
Mr. B. Allen Freeman, in bin gun
shop in this city on Saturday night',
February 14th, yesterday gave up
tha case as one involved in a mystery
go deep as to be beyond their power
to unravel, . xoe jury waa cauea to
gether in the mayor's court room at
10 o'clock yesterday forenoon, by
coroner Smith, but the proceedings
were a blank, jno new developments
whatever were made, ana the jury
rendered a verdict that Freeman
came to his death at the hands of
some party unknown to the coroner's
jury. The juryaojournea ana coro
ner Smith wrapped four or five pieces
of Freeman's skull in a piece of paper.
and taking these, with the old pistol
found in the gun shop, ana tne pa
pers of the inquest, hadeposited them
in the office of the clerk of the Su
perior court, there to let them rest as
mementos ot one or tne moi mys
terious murders on record. There is
an old saying that murder will out,
and perhaps some day, the mystery
of Allen Freeman's death will be
cleared", though at present the pros
pect is by no meang bright. The
coroner's jury;did some hard work on
the case, and are to be commended for
their efforts to get at the pottomor
the matter.

Killed by a Gram ot Corn.
Eddie Shuman, a boy eight years
of age, died yesterday morning at
the residence of his father, Mr. Wm.
Shuman, on the Camden road, two
miles from the city. The cause of
the boy's death was a grain of corn
which! had lodged in his windpipe
and which the physicians vainly eu
deaVofed to dislodge. On the 26th of
February, the boy, while playing
with an ear of corn, put several
grains in his mouth and one of these
grains became lodged in his windpipe,
aud caused him to suffer terribly.
The doctors resorted to every known
means to dislodge the grain of corn,
but failed in all their attempts, and
yesterday death brought relief to the
little sufferer.
The funeral is to be conducted from
r. Shu man's residence, at 3 o'clock
this afternoon.

RHEUMATISM AND TONIC.
Chaelottb, N. C, Dec. 10, 1884.
I have used Mrs. Joe Person's Reme
dy, aad it is the finest medicine I erer
used for Rheumatism. For more than
twenty years I have been afflicted with
muscular Rheumatism, and had tried
every known remedy, but without
avail. I was of ten so bad off and suf
fered so much that I could not lie
down, but had to be propped up in bed.
I had been subject to these severe at
tacks for twenty years. I tried Mrs.
Person's Remedy last spring, and am
perfectly cured. It is the best medicine
in the world, I think. No words of
mine can express the benefit I have de
rived from its use. I suffered from pal
pitatipn of the heart upon the least ex
ertion. Of that I am perfectly relieved.
My health is now perfect, and it is all
owing to Mrs Joe Person's Remedy. I
am strong and well, and can take ex
tended exercise without fatigue. I ad
vise all who need a Tonic, or are suffer
ing with Rheumatism or Eczema, to
take it. I was induced to try it by it
having cured my little grandson of
Ecs- MRS. S. M. HOWELL.
