One of the most peculiar cases, in many re pects, ever tried in this county was that against Gaston Blake colored, charged with robbing the First National Bank of $1,675 which was disposed of yesterday by getting an admission of guilt from the negro and then he was given but four months on the county roads. It was a com promise and an agreed verdict The court followed the advice of thesolicitor and the lawyers in the case. The lawyers were asked about the extraordinary affair and they said that the State did not have sufficient evidence to convict and "were afraid to go to trial, and Blake was afraid of a convictiou, so it was agreed that the submis sion should be entered and that the defendant should get four months. This is understood to be satisfactory to all sides, as the bank wanted to clear up tffe matter, not from the stand point of loss, but to get it clear, and the negro is evidently very glad to get ff so lightly, Special to Charlotte Observer.

B. Neave;,of Salisbury, is in the city attending the Masonic meeting. In his younger days Mr. Neave was a band leader and byifar the best in the State, but of far more importance -he: has beau' a strong churchman, a Pres byterian, and is a ruling elder in hie church. Mj-Neave has many warm friends in Greensboro who are delighted to see htm, and to note that age has very little ef fect on him. With the exception of the "frosts of winter," he looks just as young as he did twenty years ago. ' He talked to a Record man this morning about his chur ch at home. It is pastorless and the congregation, has been encounter ing the same dimcuities experi enced here, and Mr. Neave ; knew where to go to get sympathy and try to get advice, for the Presby terians have only recently passed through a like experience. His church has placed the matter in the hands of a committee, Mr. Neave being chairman, and bis experience is rich. He says he sometimes feels li k e he was around trying to take away the best man another has without asking him. At one place he visited he says a good woman who did not know him or his business, told him in speaking of a certain town, what she thoughtf such a practice. The shoe fit him, and he said nothing but soon got out of town. However, Mr, Neave thinks the congregation will land a paBtor boou. Retires From the Army. St. Louis, May 15.

X ASSOCIATION MEETS. - - Thft Ufcrr.hanlc UftVftafhprfnr and Hear mm w mm V WH WW IV II VIW II UVIMIQ w - an Excellent Address." : A reception was given last ,Wd-1 nesday night by- the Meichapts Association, which was attended by a large number. Norman EL Johnson, the attor-. ney of the State Association, was present "ind made an excellent addess which abounded iu good ideas and nractical suggestions. Among the things he said might cbe mentioned : "The homestead law should be repealed. It was not the inten-. tion " of the framers of the , bill that the law should "remain on the statute books more than four years." "We passed a freight-bill dur ing the legislature which, when it goes into operation, will save many dollars to the people, This law is soon to be tested in the courts." Mr. Johnson said he hgped the Merchants' Association would not go into politics. He advocated voting for morals and principles, rather than for politics, and that the time to work for the reforms needed was before the election. He thought it a good idea for the business men to talk with candi dates and then, support those who favored the measures they wanted. The speaker had something to say about trading stamps and ex pressed his disapproval of them, He asserted that no onewas bene fitted by them except the trading stamp companies, and that the only way to advertise was iu news papers and by attractive window displays. When Mr, Norman concluded his address, cigars and refresh ments were served. Dies From Religions Insanity.
