A--grcat deal of excitement prevailed on South Main street Mondav afternoon about half past.tbrce o'clock. It was re ported that one negro had shot and Cily-Mills Burned. About twelve o'clock Moneay night an alarm of fire was sounded. The report came from Mr. B. S. Caplan's flouring mill on the corner in tho rear of the Lutheran church. The firo department responded promptly, but was of 5 little avail. The Pioneer reel company (white) arrived first, but the hose wa3 wound on the reel backwards and caused delay. By thi3 time the colored company arrived and made connection and attached the nozzle. The third reel company made connection at the other side of the plug. The water was turned on, but the ne groes could not make their nozzle work, but got one that was not in -use from a white company. -Whereupon one or two white mendemanded some control of it. The negroes had a just right to their line of hoserand refused to give it up. Mr. W. R. Barker says they started to unscrew the nozzle but he ordered them to desist. lie euforced his demands by producing a revolver. (lie was a special police and had a right to have one in his possession.) The negroes threw down the nozzle and one of them went back and uncoupled the hose letting the water escape. During this dispute the lire had gotten beyond control and the ,raill was soon in ruins. " ' The' loss is about S,000. with only 2,70 insurance. Over a hundred sacks of (lour and other truck, besides what was in the safe, was all that was saved. Mr. Caplan has the sincere sympathy of all in his Toss. The lo- s of his -wife -by death a few weeks ago makes this blown doubly hard one. - " . Theland silver bill met an untimely death in the democratic .

Quite a serious accident befell the fif teen-year-old sou of Mr. J. R. Spencer, of Pineville. on the 26th. While driving a wagon the mule ran away, broke up the wagoir and threw the young man oxit, breaking his arm aud otherwise in juring him. A fact not generally known in connec tion with the late Mr. E. C. Davidson is that he was a iijember ofHhc first grad uating class of Davidson College in 1840 The faculty and students, on heaving of his death, met and drew up resolutions of regret and sympathy, which were for warded to his family. A big crowd of members of the Farm crs' Alliance went to; Warren ton, Va., Tuesday to hear Congressman Jerry Simpson speak.

Dr. Creasy, the talented pastor of Tryon street Methodist church, and bold champion of prohibition, is calling down upon himself the anathamus of the champions of tho liquor traffic. Having received a number of abusive anonymous letters; the Dr. announced his purpose of replying to them in a lecture at the Y. M. C. A. on Sabbath night. He drew a crowd, and the way in which he, handled hissecret enemies will not have a ten perisra and misery is due to the liquor traffic.

Just before noon they formed a procession, headed by the marshals and the band, and marched out to the Federal ccrae teiy.

Thunder Storms. Two thunder-storms passed over this place last Sunday one iii the morning and another in the evening. Lightning struck at a number ot places in t,hi county. , A large tree in Mr. J. P. Lentz's lot, on the west end of Fulton street, was destroyed.- In the evening a bolt struck Mr. W. G. Watson's house, in the same neighborhood, stunning Miss Mary Wat son for a short time. Other members of the family were severely shocked. The lightning did very little damage to the house. 7 The storm seemed to have been gen eral all over thy district.. Reports from neighboring counties say that a similar storm ipassed over on tho samo evening. Very shortly Miss Ona, the fair daugh ter of our esteemed brother allianccman, Mr. John Patterson, will strait for her field of Christian labor, the insular Em pire of Japan, that stretches a hundred miles along the coast of the Chinese Em pire.

Miss Ona has nobly consecrated ten years of her life to redeeming the "heathen from his blindness," and has tening the time when cycr nation shall bo "Knianuel's land." 1'iaver lrcm a 7 thousand hearts will ascend for her whilst on her pilgrimage of love and duty Senator Hill in his fourth of July school hey oration in Charlotte, on May 20ih forgot one little item that he should have mentioned, and it is this; That the prcs ent Cong'ress has already appropriated $23,000,000 more money than the billion dollar Tom Reed congress did at its first session and the second session always appropriates more than the first. When they assembled last winter they said tna expenses should be sliced down to Ho man cheese paring thinness. First ses sion of olst Congress, according to Mr. a Saycrs, of Texas, appropriated $10.3,000, 000; first session of 52d Congress appro priated $4FG,000,000, according to Mr. Saver, democrat. How we apples do swim. During the three years of republican rule preceding Cleveland's, administra tion 191,221 names were added to the peusion rolls. During the first three years of Cleveland's administration 359, 459 were added. The republicans dur ing their three years paid $183,373,000 in pensions and the democrats for the same length of time paid out $217,399,000 in private pension bills.

Some of our "big wigs" in Washington, desiring to pose as the friends of the peo ple, without endangering existing 'insti tutions, have proposed the re-establishment of State banks, and some of our democratic editors, appealing for popu larity and patronage, lo the old States rights prejudice of the people have taken up the cry. Any man of average intelligence might recognize the fact that the changed conditions would make a State currency undesirable. The people don't want any "rag baby" money; they want a currency, abundaut aud flexible in volume, but as good as the money in which the bondholder draws his interest, md that will pass current anywhere in the civilized world. The Observer has the following to say about it: The Observer confesses that it has not ooked far enough into this matter to eel that it is entitled to have any opin ion about it, but has grave doubts about the practicability ot the ideas ot those who favor the re-establishment of State auks. A money which will remain -at ionic, thai is to sav, a money which other people will not have, is apt to be ono which the people among whom it is designed to stav do not themselves want.

They killed the silver bill and de stroyed about a cargo of mean whiskey. Q Well, who was it that directed the democratic fight against free silver? A. Tom lleed. q Well, is he not a republican? A Yes. but of course he wanted to help the democrats. Q Who wants to indict the members of the Farmer's Alliance? A. Maj. W. M. Robbins, Esq., of StatesvilkyN. C, U. S. A. Q.Why don't he do it if they nre outlaws; he ought not to wait any longer. A. Well he would but wherea, well he will compromise by hollowing negro in the woodpile. il Was Ilobbins ever in Congress.? A. Yef-; what did he do? Wo have not got that far in our book to :ell; yes, I forgot, he drew $5,000 a year Q taxes what we consume latherthan what we possess, hence a man working for a living, with ten children may pay ten ! times as much to support the govern ment as the man of wealth without chil dren. We have free trade iu nothing but human muscle. The war tariff was 31 cents average. The democrats tried to reform tho -tariflT with the Mills bill that levied a tariff of 12 cents, or 5 cents less than the existing law. The old parties fight ovcY the tariff to cover over vital issues. Abolish liquor as a beverage, elect, the president and United States Senators by direct vole of the people1, put the railroads and tele graph under government control to be run at cost in the interest of the people. The poor man going to see a sick mother pays full faro whilst the millionaire rides on a complimentary ticket. Should not cost oyer one cent a mile to travel on railroads. But it will centralize power in the hands of the government. Better centralize that way than in tlfe Gould's and Vaivdcrbilt's. There is no discrimi nation against the poof man in our pos tal system. Give the people a chance. We need a - - - i party that dares to do right because it is right. Ho believed the only jyay to get re form would bo to. place the ballot in tho hands of women.
