Follows.
Gloom Cast Over Wilson.
Wilson, Feb, 16. A whip-like
crack, a spurt of flame, a puff of
sujokf, and as H. O. Pickard, Sup
erintendent of the Wilson Cotton
Mills, fell to the floor ot the spinning
room bathed in his life blood, a
thrill ol horror flashed through our
community at the realization that
another tragedy had cast its red
stain over us.
The deed, as indicated, was com
mitted in tiit spinning room of the
factory. The man who fired the fatai
siiot was Wiley House, a young ruan
of abaut twenty-seven. The ball
ei.tertd the body of the superiuteu
dtnt about two and a half iuciies
from the right nipple and on a line
With the left. It penetrated the
vitals aal death followed within a
few minutes. Mr. Pickard managed
to stagger from the spinning ro.m
into his office. Herd he fell and ex
pireJ.
The events leading up to thi
crhnsou climax are briefly these.
Wiley House and Charley Norton
had K on discharged from Hackney
Brothers Carriage Works, and were I
out on a ,4Dender." Loaded up with I
whiskey they first went to i;he car- able and living price tor their pro
riage works and theD from there to ducts.

Here, the superintendent seeing organization was elected a county

Instead of obeying they became
hhnsive. 'Shoo! the !" ex
claimed Norton to his companion,
applying a foul epithet to the super
intendent. Instantly House's pis
tol gleamed in his hand and its
sharp report sounded in the room.
Another story declares that House
was the one who first cried shoot,
and that Norton answered: "Shoot
the yourself."
However that may be, as Pickard
reeled back, shot to his death, Nor
ton and House, taking advantage ol
the wild confusion into which the
mill operatives were thrown by the I
tragedy, slipped from the room and
made their escape.
Thev had gone but a short dis
tance, however, when the hue and
cry was raised and swilt runners
were at their heels. Final escape
was hopeless. The whole place
seemed aroused. Hunters were on
all sides of them. Capture could not
long be avoided.
It came soon. Eager hands seized
them as they fled along the road to
the poor house and hurried them
back toward the jail. Here the J
doors closed upon mem; ana oeninu i euough money to run tne govern

preliminary trial. I
The crime has aroused among our I
people the deepest indignation. Su-1
jerintendent Pickard was a man ol I
noble qualities and highly esteemed. I
He was an elder in the Preobyterian I
church, and his life was an exempla- j
ry one. A wife and one son, a hoy
of sixteen or seventeen, survive him.
Pickard came here froui Burling
ton about tn years ago. He was 47
years of age.
The coroner's inquest will he held
at 11 o'clock in the morning.
Prohibition vs. Saloons.
January, 1904, under saloons and
January, 1405, und prohibition are
interstingly compared by the Greens-
boro and Charlotte papers. Here are
the results:
Greensboro: while there were two
more arrests lor all crimes during
January, 1905, than for the tame
month last year, there were only
seventeen arrests for drunkensss
.this January, against 51 in 1904.
This shows that the arrests for
-drunkenness has been decreased by
two-thirds. There were nineteen ar-
rests for running blind tigers. The

Goldsboro, N. C.
Dear Sir: You understand grind
ing wheat, buckwheat, rye, oats and
corn. We understand grinding
white-lead and white-zinc. The two
sorts of grinding are not much alike.
Very likely oats and wheat behave
very differently in the mill, and you
manage them differently we know
very little about your work; don't
need to; we'd raher depend ou you.
But we paint your house and mill,
and out-buildings, perhaps you'd be
glad to know abjut grinding paint;
for seme people mix their paint
with a stick in a tub.
We use lead-and-zinc nothing
I eise.
And our zioc is as tougu as
your oats. xuo mixers imagine
they mix it. They didn't; they
can't. Takes grinding to mix lead
and-zinc.
They are both white: when are
they thoroughly mixed? Tub-mix
ers don't know it; but tub-mixed
lead-and-zinc is a streak of one along"
side of a streak of the other.
We grind as you grind; and our
paint is lead and-zinc ground to
gether, mix-d iutimately: it is
neither lead nor zinc, but lead-and-
zinc: tne leaa is ion, ana jtne ztns is
lost: each lost in the other: both lost
in the mixture. L ad chalks and
zinc peels: lea 1-and-zinc ground to

within a stone's throw of the great

Emperor Nicholas and chief of the
reactionaries, met a terrible death
shortly before 3 o'clock yesterday

The deed was commited by a sin-
gle terrorist, who threw beneath the

When she heard of what had befal
len the Grand Duke she was driven
in haste to the scene of the tragedy
and knelt hatless and cdatless on the
bloodstained snow and murmured
nra vers fnr the welfare of the soul of

her slain consort.
The scene of the crime was the
great open triangle within the Krem
lin, bounded by the arsenal, treasury
and courts of justice, in one angle of
which is the Nicholas, or Little Pal
ace where the Grande Dake dwelt,
At the opposite corner is the Nikol
ky gate, the exit to the town be
yond the ramparts. A few minutes
before the bell of the gate sounded

Grand Duke emerged from the gates
of the palace and proceeded, followed

It swept at a smart pace towards
the gate, passing the" Choudeff clois -

bell and ?ow rows of cannon captured!
from Napoleon in the winter retreat
of 1812.
in a minute the carriage was in
front of the courts of justice where
the walls of the triangle approach,
forming a narrow entrance to the
Nisolsky gate. There a man clad
in workman's attire stepped forward
from the sidewalk and threw a bomb
which he had concealed beneath his
coat.
A terrible explosion followed and
a hail of iroa pelted the grim stone
walls of the arsenal and courts of
ustice.
The murderer is under arest.

Ohio woman was instantly

A little figuring will show that the

ably never had a really happy home.
It takes the average woman at least
three months to get "settled" in one

Saturday morning and its affairs are
now in the hands of State Bank Ex

trusted employes and officials of the

highly esteemed citizens, have been
arrested and are now under bond of
$10,000 until the responsibility for a
shortage of $23,000, discovered by an

They Were Delighted4AVhen the
Train Stopped in Goldsboro.
The great grand Lodge of the
Junior Order United American Me
chanics is in session in this city.
From all over North Carolina are
deiegateg more thaH two hundred
strong. Now, these delegates were
no doubt most favorable impressed
with Goldsboro, as the train stopped
and they stepped off into the mud
and slush, with a big rain pouring
down upon them. Y a, verily.
these delegates are delighted with
such a reception. Delegates from the
vVest found a sp'endid passenger de-
eot at Greensboro, an elegant , new
assenger station at Durham, a fine
.aosenger station at Raleigh, but
vhen they reached Goldsboro the
ound that., the-trains stop in the
niddle of the street, with nothing
whatever over-head to protect the
pagiengers. These are plain facts
I and speak for themselves.
The End Draws Near.

I was down with Nervous Dyspep
sia lor eigne years, wnen l was
taken I weighed 183 pounds, and it
reduced me to 118. I could not touch
solid lood. I believe if I had taken
solid food it would have killed me,
and I had to live on sweets and
lightest kind of diet.
I had severe nervous spells nearly
every day and would have doctors to
treat me, but they did not do me one
particle of good, not even to relieve
me. I was so weak that for three
months I was not able to walk across
j the room. I had rath ;r die than to
suffer it over again and I fell that I
was in a worse condition than any
one who ever lived.
Mrs. Joe Person and my wife per
suaded me to use Mrs. Joe Person's
Remedy.
I bought a dozen bottles and it was
three months before I felt any relief

Women as Well as Men
Are Made Miserable by
Kidney Trouble.
Kidney trouble preys upon the mind, di
courages and lessens ambition; beauty, vigor
ana cneenuiness soon
disappear when the kid
neys are out of order
or diseased.
Kidney trouble has
become no prevalent
that it is not uncommon
for a child to be born
afflicted with weak kid
neys. If the child urin
ates too often, if the
urine scalds the flesh or if, when the child
reaches an age when it should be able to
control the passage, it is yet affltcted with
bed-wetting, depend upon it. the caus of
the difficulty is kidney trouble, and the ( st
step should -be towards the treatmen of
these important organs. This unpleasant
trouble is due to a diseased condition of the
kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as
most people suppose.
Women as well as men are made mis
erable with kidney and bladder trouble,
and both need the same great remedy.
