Walker to Be Hanged.
The trial of Tom Walker, the
negro of Fayetteville that killed
two policemen sometime ago be
cause they attempted to break
up his blind tiger, was halted
Tuesday on account of the fact
that the prisoner attempted to
kill himself by butting out his
own brains against the cell.
The trial was postponed until he
was able to attend.
Fayetteville, N. C., March 27.
The death watch is sot over
Tom Walker. He will pay the
penalty of his crime of double
murder on Friday. April 15. It
took the jury but fifteen minutes
to return a verdict of guilty of
murder in the first degree on the
charge of killing Chief of Police
J. A. Chason on the night of
March 2nd. The killing at the
same time of Umcer Lockamy
was also proved. The verdict
was rendered at seven minutes
past three o'clock. The jury
was selected yesterday, and start
ing at 9:30 this morning the state
had made out its case at 11
o'clock.
"Tell them I know they'll find
me gujlty but I'm sorry for what
I done and ask the people to for
give me," was the message he
requested Sprunt Newton, one
of his attorneys, to give to the
court. Ask the judge to give
me as much time as he can, so I
can prepare to meet my Maker,"
he added.
This afternoon Walker was sit
ting up and said he was sorry he
tried to commit suicide yesterday.
Were it not tor his bandaged
head, the result of his horrible
attempt, it could not have been
told from his appearance. Dr.
Rose Stated that Walker was able
to proceed with the trial, and he
was brought in on a cot. In an
hour and a half Solicitor Sinclair
naa maae out a strong ana
con
vincing case for, the State. Q.
K. Nimocks assisted in the prose
cution. Again the court room was
packed almost to suffocation.
There has been no demonstra
tion whatever at any time since
the negro was returned from the
penitentiary Monday. It was
i erned best, however, to have
"v"v"'"
! under command of Major J. C.
I Vann, to guard the jail last night, !
though nothing happened to
break their monotony. The two
young attorneys are being con-
gratulated on the manner in
which they conducted the de
ferisA. ThAnrnsPfiirinnu-aclTv
died masterly. The public is con-

tained alcohol aud other harmful ingredi
ents. Dr. Pitsrce promptly brought suit
against the publishers of the Ladies'
Home Journal, for f300.000,fi0 damages.
