The tragedy was enacted on Trade etrRt. in fKQnt of W. B.

U.. iPf.. .L I i ,. . . uuuueriBon scooa erect tor a moment after the shot, then he threw up his hands, tottered to the edce of toe pavement and sank down by an awning post. : Mr. Long was taken in crjarge by . policeman Taylor, while an excited crowd quickly gathered at tne scene, and surrounded the hndv of Mr. Cuthbertson. As those nearBf. i the scene reached Mr, Cuthberfaon. ha gave a gasp And expired without navmg beenable to articulate a word Among the pedestrians who were in the. vicinity at the time, was coroner S. B. Smith, and thflt official at once took pososion of the body and had it removed to the court house. wher it was locked up, pending theorgani- zation of a court of inquest. - ------s - A great crowdJhad by this time collected in the vicinity, - and the de tails of the affair were eagerly sought and discussed. Mr. Long was placed m the oustody of an officar. and un der guard proceeded to his residence to inrorm his wife of the occurrence, aicer which lie returned and was closeted with his lawyers. The affair waa the" work of but a moment - Mr. Long was standing in.Mr. : Tavlor's store when Mr. Cuthbertson came by. As tne latter was in the act of pass mg the stare, Mr. Long Btepped to the pavement with a drawn nistol. which he presented at his father-in- law and pulled the trigger," sending sne outlet into Mr. Uuthbertsons body, in the region of the heart. The distance was so close that the coat the deceasod wore was powder .burn ed. At the moment the shooting oc curred, Mr. W. B. Taylor and Gen: John A. :-Young - were in the immedi- diate vicinity and were witnesses to the tragedy. - V-.- - ''' r :, THE PRINCIPAL WITNESS to tae traeredy is w.u.

Just at that moment I glanced towards IndeDend- ence square, and saw Mr. Cuthbertson approaching from hat direction, an men x remarKeq 0 ; yy Hnere he pqme nw Nothing ,more sas said. and I stepped, out to the payement. Just before Mr. Cuthber tsorjl came up, something B$treic1Sxyf attention, ftcroa the street and I turned my back to the store. ;. About this game tme, heard Mr, Long : remark; 'You sept me :word that yoq intended to kiU me on sight. vAs' I beardthese words- I turned and saw Mr. Long step from .t. j. i.-'i.iL.v..: . . . . . - the doorway to the pavement, his right arm extended and a pistol grasped in his right nand. Almost as soon - as Mr. Long feaq 'ut tered the words; tie drev? the trigger 8 the $hot was fifed, Mr. Cuthbertson laid, L dlin t do any such thing,'. then threw hi hand to his heart, staggered back and fell to tha paves 'ment.' Aa MP. Lone Oivad the Shot. I grasped his hand and jerked the pis to! "from him; ? I 1 3ared that Mr. Cuthbertson would rshoot back,but 'a glance at his palid features showed that it was all over with him. As hei sank down. Mr., Long exclaimed, l am sorry, but it had to he done. I do not think Mr. Cuthbertson lived more than two minutes after he vas shot. The pistol used was a 38 cali bre Smith & Wesson.

John A, Young, the postmas ter, was one of the eye witnesses to the" shooting. Gen. Young was on bis way to the court houge, and was walking directly behind Mr. Cuth bertson. He was - within less than ten steps of the latter when theshot was : fired. An -Observer reporter found Gen. Young at the postoffice. and in an interview with him secured his statement-substantially as fol lows : . "I was - going to the . court bouse and waa walking orettv raDid ly, and in front of . me, less than - ten feet, Mr. C'lthbertson was walking in the direction of the court house. - As Cuthbertson was passing the first aoor oi xayior s siore a saw through tne. nrst aoor some - person in the store walking to the second door.

He did not spa tha ahnnh-nn. wuv ULfvVVIU, but hurried to the. door to see what had occurred. , As he trained thn pavement he saw Mr. Lone- deceased facing "each other , Mr Cuthbertson 's features were pallid, and he was saying something to Mr. Long. "I could not hear -what he was saying,' remarked Mr." Qderv to an Observer reDresentativo I "fnr distinctly as I heard his ; voice," I could not catch his words. I raw ru pistol in Mr. Cutbbertson's haind, and therefore I supposed at first that he had. been shot at. 1 but had iWn misled, and my inference . was that he .was making an explanation. It all happened within a few seconds'. and,.! had taken all this in at . w glance, when guddenlv Uri HntiS. bertson threw his hand to his heart: then reeled and ldll to the pavement." Continuing, Mr. Query said that Mr. Long had. been about his store sevs eral times since court convened this week, and .that he always appeared to be uneasy. : Mr. Long had repeats edly talked to him about; the threats that Mr. Cuthbertson had been making, and appeared to aparehend trouble, stating that the court would likely turn Cuthbertson lrmao "TTo ought to be imprisoned, or kept under guard ; something ought to. be done with him, as he is a dangerous1 man." were expressions repeatedly used by Mr. Long in bis conversations with Mr. Query.

HIS WILL IN HIS POCKET. I When the body of Mr. Cuthbertson was removed to the court jhouse, Coroner. Smith Searched the pockets of the deceased, and found $4.05 in cash anda number of papers and letters.' Among the documents was a sealed package endorsed. The will of W. F. Cuthbertson." These arti. cles were delivered into the custody of Capt. John R. .Erwin. while the coroner set about making arrange ments to hold the inquest. A jury consisting of H. C Severs,! 0. C Hayes, R. J.

Mr. Long was regarded by all as a model young tnan,. and the op- ' position of Mr. . Cuthbertson was be yond comprehension." For" some i days after the marriage - and ' at fre quent intervals ince that period,-Mr. Cuthbertson bas made yiolent threats against Mr-.

In addition to : this, ' Mr. Cuthbertson wrote Mr. Long a note, threatening to kill or whip his (IiOng's) wife if she ever ventured near him. Yesterday morning several threats reached Mr. Yiong's ears, and when he found him. self in the presence of Mr. Cuthberts son, at Taylor's store,' he acted as he nad reason to believe, in defence of nis own life. THE SENTIMENT OP THE COMMUNITY Is strongly in symDathv wit.h Mr Long, who is known by all of oar people as a steady," upright, moral young man. .

About the Supreme Cour.t. ' To the Editor of Thk Obsbkvbk. , Is it not time that the Democracy of the State should be casting about for suitable candidates for Supreme Court Judges? The present court is composed of gentlemen of learning ability and purity, but two t-f its members, Chief Justice Smith' and associate Justice Ashe, are too old to ojLpecb a renomination. They are elected for eight years. . One is now about 77 years and the other 73. I understand, and it is hardly probable that they could retain vigorous health and active mental powers with eight jotti-H mure or arduous and laborious work. - The members of the United States Supreme Court are retired at the aee of 70 Years nn half noir so should our members, though the Legislature has made no such provis ion.
