DURHAM, N. C, July 2, 1907.
Much is being said about the
murder in Virginia, where Judge
Loving learned from his daughter
that a young man by the name of
Estes had carried her out for a
buggy ride and drugged her and
then assaulted her, and stress is
being laid upon the truth of what
the young lady told her father.
We don't know anything about
the law in such cases, but it
seems to us the only thing to be
considered is whether Miss Lov
ing told her father the story they
tell or not, and that the truth or
falsity of what she told him has
nothing to do with tne case so
far as the Judge is concerned for
there is no man that will stop to
inquire whether there is truth in
what she says about a matter of
this nature.
It is stated in the papers that
several men recently have died
because they were informed that
some relative had left them a
fortune, among the number .be
ing a fellow by the name of
Breene, of Washington, Pa.,
who, when he was told by law
yers that he was heir to $100,000
in cash fell unconscious and died
half hour later in a hospital, also
another that was told that he
was worth $40,000 became in
sane and drownad himself in a
pond, all of which may be well
for people that believe no rich
can enter, but there are few of
us but what woold gladly run the
risk of the fate tin two aloe
mentioned. -r
When a man takes his own
life and thus ends his earthly
worries, he must reach a terrible
state of mind. Naturally the
man that takes his future in his
hands in such a way is alone re
sponsible for such an act, but
who knows that if half the kind
words that have been said oyer
the pale corpse of some suicide
had been said while he could
have known and felt good over
them, he might have today been
a useful citizen. There is, gen
erally speaking, a spirit among
men of being afraid to say and
do little things for some one for
fear they will encourage a worth
less fellow, or few take time to
do such things, and good men
are passing away, some by their
own hand3 for the ,lack of a few
words being said, or a kindly
deed that would have perhaps
chanzed the course of their life.
Possibly every one has a hob
by, and if such is true the Char
lotte Observer must possess at
least three distinct hobbies: a
strong like for Grover Cleveland,
a strong dislike for the blood
hound and a desire to poke fun
at North Carolina poets. The
following paragraph is an evi
dence of its dislike for the hound:
"Score one more for the blood
hound. Recently a store was
burned in Carteret county, it was
supposed by an incendiary, and
as the formula has it, "blood
hounds were sent for." They
lost the track, of course, but
sought out a member of the
Methodist Church who proved
an alibi and the solicitor who
conducted the case against him
before a magistrate announced
that he had no case." We want
to add that the bloodhound is not
the only animal that causes a
man to go into court and prove
his innocence, and leave no re

had delivered prearranged judgment
He heard It once and winced and
twitched his shoulders, as though the
stroke had fallen on them. He heard
It again. He began mumbling the end
of a new cheroot and listening to the
flies on the window pane, whose bus
sing had suddenly become very loud.
But louder yet were those horrible
sounds outside, and even more horrible
was the exultant croak of the old doc

sounds.
