Saturday night Sheriff Suttle received a telephone message from !i point in South Carolina stating that they had Jim Low eiy surrounded and would cap ture him and bring him up Sun day evening. About 800 Shelby people met the train Sunday evening not expecting anybody, but just to see and Jim didn't come. Mr. Geo. P. Webb, one of Cleve land county's bright young men, who is attending Rutherford College, has been elected orator to represent the Nutonian Liter arv Society of Rutherford Col lege at the approaching com mencement. It is needless to say that this is a wise selection and that we rejoice in the advance ment of Cleveland's son. Mr. J. F. Williams, the energet ic and capabli owner of the Wil liams Knitting Mill, has sold a half interest in his plant to Mr. E. A. Well in on, and the plant will be materially enlarged and other extensive improvements made. A dye house will be built at once and probably another story will be added to the mill and considerably .more machi nery added. This enterprise has been wonderfully successful and we predict for it continued and increased prosperity with such enterprising owners as Messrs. Williams and Wellmon. A serious shooting affair oc curred in No. 10 township last Wednesday, and as a result Mr. Pink Crow is lving dangerouslv ill at home and Mr. Joe Manner, his voung nephew, is in jail in Shelby, awaiting the preliminary trial. There are conflicting sto ries as to the cause of the shoot ing. Friends of the young man, Mauuev, sav that the trouble arose over a land dispute and that Crow had been giving the young man andhis mother, who is Crow s sister, much trouble over the matter. Crow wanted to dispossess them, but they would not give up. They claim that Crow cut the corner of anew house they had begun to build on the place and that he came over to Mrs. Mauney's homelast Wednesday morning and she ordered him away. He came in and began to curse her and she got the hammer and struck at him, and he then knocked her down and was beating her when the voung man called to another man, standing by, to take Crow off, and when he did not comply with his request .young Maunty got a pistol and tired twice, both balls taking effect in the back. Crow's friends assert that he did not intend to knock his sister, Mrs. Mauney, down, that he on ly pushed her back to prevent her from striking him with the hammer, and thev also denv a ' mi patt of the other statements. The physician was summoned and has since been attending Mr, Crow. Efforts to locate the bul- kts have been unsuccessful so far. and both seemed to have entered the same hole. Mr. Crow is a verv well to-do farmer and is known very well in that section Deputy J. vJ. Mull served a war rant on Joseph Mauney, who is 1 or 18 years old, and brought him to jail Saturday. The pre liminary trial cannot be held un til there is a change in Crow's condition and his recovery is by no means certain. NIGHT WAS HER TERROR. "I would cough nearly all nightlong." writes Mrs. Chas. Applegate.of Alexandria, Ind., and could hardly get any sleep. I had consumption so bad that if 1 walked a block would cough frightfully and spit blood, but when all other medicines failed, three $1.00 bottles of Dr. King's New Dis coverv wholly cured rne and gained 53 pounds."

The entireschoolmade an average of 95 per cent on at tendance, while the 7th a id 8th grades made 98 percent.

Everybody doesn't know that Mr. Wilh-lm has an incubator in the basenif nt of his store and Mr. Li B. Bristol was one who didn't know. Wednesday night about 10 o'clock Mr. Bristol saw a light in the basemeut of Mr. WibHru's store, which be took to be the be ginning ot a destructive nie, a burglar at work, or else Mr. Wil belui baa lett a lamp burning in the biKeuient.

HOW TO CUBE THE GRIP. Kemain quietly at home and take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy as directed and a quick recovery is sure to fol low. That remedy counteracts any tendency of the grip to re sult in pneumonia, which is really the only serious danger. Among the tens of thousands who have used it for the grip, not one case has ever been re ported that did not recover. For sale by W. A. Leslie, drug gist. . ' CALDWELL.

He preached to large congregations forenoon and night and asked for a contribu tion to the sum of $3,000,000. which the Synod of North Caro lina lias undertaken to raise for Christian Education. Presby terians here raised $1,000 and hope to increase it to $1,500 in three years. Dr. Stagg s strong appeal for co-operation in this movement and his common sense va)' of soliciting money, were appreciated, ana the re sponse was encouraging and commendable. Mcnday, Sheriff Cline ieceived a telegram from the Governor, stating that he would respite the sentence of Jackson till March zutn. l ms was done at the re quest, of several influential citi zens, who thought that Jackson should be allowed more time in which to prepare for the bevond It will be remembered that until last Friday Jackson's fate was undecided and there was a feel ing on the part of some that the condemned man should be al lowed more time to prepare him self for the last.

Charlotte Observer, 26th nit. A very remirkable discovery has been made within the preseut month. In 1886 Conre.s psssed an act, which was much discussed bv the press and the people at that time aud has been s nce, pro viding for 4he succession to the presidncv iu the event ot the death or disability of both the president and vice-presid-nt. It put the secretary ot state next in line and after him one member of the cabinet after another until al are named. Now, alter sixteen years, it is ascertained that this act contravenes the constitution, which provides that after the vice president the speaker of the hois shall sueceed to the pjesideiicy, Tbr. act of 1880 iguores this officer, Such au oversight ou tbe part o the gentlemen who are supposed to be students and custodians o the constitution is incompihensi ble SURGEON'S KNIFE NOT NEEDED.

Correspondence of The News-Herald. Ralegh, N. C, March 3. It is both a salutary and wise proceed ing, the healthfulness and ccrrec five effects of which may not be doubted, to indulged in a little sell examination occasionally "lest we forget, lest we forget!" This truthful- observation ap plies to political parties as well as to individuals, with equal force and effectivnesa, and in view of the wide publication of the report of an alleged disgraceful and oat rageous affair that is said to have recently occurred in ur State, I would like to enquire what has be come of our much vaunted and widely heralded "White Saprem acy" principles, with which we wallnped the life out ot ttre Popu list party a brief two years ago! Vide, the Goldsboro incident, when a fusion sheriff was forced by cer tain -'strenuous" gentlemen to sep arate a white convict that he had chained together with a herd ot bl.ick eriniinalsen route to the penitentiary. If the.vitalization and insistence upon the idea and principle of White Dupremacy was important then (aud it was); if the gentle men then stumping the State in the interest of our party, and in cidentally runuiug personally for public office, were honest and heart v in their declarations of 11)00 (and I make no doubt that they all were), how comes it, theu, that iu 1902 a brief ;year after the inauguration of our new White Supremacy administration, agents of the State can order uegro con vits to apply the lash to the bare back of a white couvict aud theu have the victim of an infamy shot down ana killed because he re sented it by attacking the negroes when his arms were uupinionedf Ilow" comes it, I repeat, that uch a disgraceful and iufamous act (the only charge against the man being "insubordination") can concur iu this year of grace, with out official notice being taken oi it? And yet a dispatch was sent out bv the Associated Press all over the country hom liuutdale, N. C giving the above particulars more than a week ago. Huntdale is iu Mitchell couuty, within the pale of civilization, and the outrage occurred,it is stated, at the camp of convicts hired ot the penitentiary authorities to work ou railroad costi action, in tue name of hu nauity, m the interests of White Supremacy, in vindica tiou of the Democratic party and the principles it stands for, and the good name.ot our State, this seemingly unparalleled piece'of in fa my should be investigated; and the people will be satisfied with nothing less than either the're futation of the report now current or the summary dismissal of the State's agents or officials respon sible tor it. It tue dispatch was untrue or exaggerated, that fact should be shown. I say uin the iuterests of our party and the principles it stands for,'' because if this sort of tb.ng can go on without attracting the prompt at tention aud corrective action ot those whom we have elected and placed iu high office, it will not be long before our politicial enemies can and will sav, with some ap pearauce ot tue truth, that some office seeking politicians. in 1900 were plavinsi" the white voters of North Carolina; that their pretense of white supremacy championship was a hollow mockery and a poliu cal trick and sham to win voles: that they were hotter on the trail of desirable poblic office and its emoluments than these were iu scenting real danger to the as cendency aud political and social dominariou of the wbiterace. Ana this is the view of oue of the best Democrats iu North Carolina as he stated it to-day. - The excuses ot no one man or company of meu s'lOuld s'and in the way ourgiug our prty and our public servants (mo t of whom I am sure are entirely true and boucst it their pretensious)of even liability to such a monstrous charge as that.

The very called by Chairman Simmons to be held iu Raleigh March 25, will take up several important questions of party policy, one of which relates to tbe modus operandi of nominat ing the Democratic candidate for the 17. S.

Still another will be j the selection of the date for hold ing the next State convention, to nominate candidates for Chief Justice and Supreme and Superior Court Jadges, Superintendent of Public Instruction, etc. Baleigh will have a big theatre auditorium by the time set capable of accom modating double as many people as any other nan in JNorth Carolina.

The State Board of Education decides all the counties will be able to secure four months public schools through the distribution ol the second $100,000 appropria tiou soon to o maae.

While there is litf tie doubt that Judge Shepherd would accept the nomination if tendered him by the convention, there is no need of forcing this sort of thing ou anybody. So wheu the former Chief Justice declines so formidable opponent as Judge Clark, he should be allowed to be cousidered out of the game. Tbe auti-Clark men should trot out auother horse and one with "gamey" qualities would suit the purpose best. s Attorney-lieireral liilmer, ei- Jadges Shepherd and Merrimon aud George Kountree, Esq., coun sel for tue State, in the bond suit brought againt North Caroliua by the State of South Dakota, went to Washington yesterday to ap pear in the case before the United J Postmaster Mullen of Charlotte, who tanked up and went on a high kicking spree iu Washington im mediately alter.being reappointed', and who it has been thought might be "excused" by the Rough Rider for such unseemly conduct, will probably lose his job after all, I was told jesterday by a politician leturning from Washington.
