The Daalh Stroke from Lightning
We learn TViim a gentleman just from
Masonboro Sound some ad&itional parb
ticulars in regard to the doath by light
ning of the wie of Mr. Henry Lumsden
at that place yesterday. There was no
rm si the tliro of the lightning stroke
nor was there during the whole day. any
sprinkle fiom the clouds at all. At the
timi of the aooklent, tbe sun was shining
bright and the shock which was so sud
d :n tnd cnexpec' -d came almost Jike a
clp;f tLuader from a clear sky, theje
hiving been no sharp poals of thunder up
to that t:mi. Only a low rumbling of
distant thunder had been heard, conee-
qien If tho bhock was more surprUing
aad ferriac than if a thunder storm had
be in raging. Tue house in which the
mfoitunatd womm was liviog is on the
premises of Dr. W. W. Harriss, and is
situated about two hundred yards from
that gentleman's summer residence, under
tho shade of a tall oak tree, a limb o
which overhangs a window in the house
where the doceased lived. This window
unfortunately was open at the time and
he sick woman lay oa her bed with ber
ittle three weeks old infant close by her
aide near the window, while ber nve
other children were playing in the
yard rcar the house under the
shade of the trej. This wa3 the position
and condition of things about the house at
o'clock when the fatal bolt struck
tho tree aud from the overnatgmg
branches cntored the room through the
window, dtstroying.the li.e of the mother
while the infant oa the same couch re
mained untouched. One of the children
in tho yard was s ightly ir jurcd and a d g
Ijjng at tbe loot of the tree was Ued
The children bein? friLteuui nearly to
death yelled and screamed, which bruugbt
the neighbors running over, who found
the woman beyond the halp of human
aid, with both hands raised as though
feeling for her babe. The husband and
father was absent at the tfme from home,
or perhaps the motherless children, would
have been deprived of both parents at
once The bed on which the woman lay
remained standing until some one of the
gentlemen commenced to see what he
could do and jarred the couch, when it all
fell to pieces, and our informant states
that man with an axe in his hands
couldnt lo ten minutes time break a beJ,

City Court (
Quite a ler.gthy, docket awaited the
Mayor this morning at theusual Ccuri
hour. The first case called was Liu
R?ye;s and Jane Blackmai ; charge, die
oruorly cond ict; sentence of the Gurt b
fi ie or five dys for the firt uamed aud
$li fine. or ten da8 o the last nabifd
d lendant
Saucer Fai. on aud G. VV. Hersey, two
colored youtts, were arraigned for in
dulgiag in a free fight in Brooklyn, on
Monday n'g' ; sentence of the Court $"
fi ie or five das in the C. V for each do
fend ant. 1
Wm. Fhinney, colored, the redoubtable
and chronic disturber of the peace, one cf
tbe regular attendants on the Mayor's;
levees, was brought up on the charge of
assault and battery. The Hay or gave but
a short meter sentence, but it was long
meter time for the prisoner, who was sent
bolow for thirty days in default of pay
ment of a fine of $30.
Laura Taylor and Frances Outlaw, two
colored women who have passed over
the hill and entered upon the declining
years of life, were arretted and arraigned
upon an affidavit made that defendants
were guilty of violating Sec. 8 of the Gen
eral Ordinance of the I Cityj by keeping
a disorderly house and using and allowing
to be used boisterous cursing and ' swear
ing and other obscene language. Quite
an airay of witnesses were on hand to
testify, all of whom were colored, and all
of whom were likewise of the feminine
genler. f
Keziah Butler was the first to .take
the stand to testify as she did in tau) -stance
after the following fashion: I
couldn't s!eep;' there is uo chance to rest
nor take any peace either day or night. I
think 'Miss' Outlaw is de 'casion ob de
confusion, which de Lord knows dere is
plenty ob all de time. I'se agwiue ter
tell it just as it happened; de truth must
shine. I'se got ter go r Judgment
when I die. I tb:Dk 'Miss' Outlaw
is de most ter blame tor
Miss' Taylor is all de t;me ' begging her
to let her aloue, beia' she'd got her work
to do.'
Did you hear any cursing and swearing?'
asked the Court.
Did 1 he' - any cussing ; should think I
did, and sich language as I'm not gwine
to repteatfbut you want the truth, and I'm
gwine to tell jer, the t.ath must shine.
I'se got to go to judgment. iliss' j Outlaw
is de one to blame more 'n Miss Taylor.'
Stand aside,' said ythe Court. 'Call Ann
Fulford,' and Ann Fulford took 'ie stand.
I think 'Miss Outlaw is the mosest to
blame ; this thing has been going on for
three months or better. The cussing and
lusstng is going on 'fore people get out of
bed.' 1 (
Jr ie Fulford, another wilner, corrobor
ated Ann Fulford 's statement, and Eliza
Singleton corroborated all the foregoing
testimony, except that she told Miss' Out
law to tiy and pray. 7
Agnes Crocker blamed Frances Outlaw
and thoightsbe was a uui ience on the
hill
Kate Johnson was the last witness called
and she corroborated evei thing everybody
else had said.
Frances Outlaw, one of the defendants,
now sought and obtained permission jfrom
the Court to speak in her own defence,
when she opened her mouth and spoke! as
follows: 'Laura Taylor gives all dese wo
men 'rotgut' to drink and dej cum here
and talk for hit. She and sis Taylor
fout Sunday, aad de floor was washe 1 in
blood add I called a policem in to look at it.
Liura gits drunk and buses we. I had
to go to the Jidge about her and she
told me things I wouldn't say here.'
From Frances Outlaw's statement it did
look like the thing was a put up job on
her by L.ura Taylor and her friends, but
tbe Mayor could only take cogatzance of
the evidence in the ease, and as the wit
nesses all swore one way. Tbe Court
sentenced Frances Outlaw to thirty days'
imprisonment in tbe City Prison. This
ended the docket and the Court adjourned1

28, 1880. NO. 132
Lot I.Terj Tax. Payer Bead This!
an a matter oi interest to ail ot our
realers we publish herewith some facts
connected with the county finances. The
eompr:non between the years of Dtmo
craticru'e and Radical misrule is a re
maskable one. Beginning with the year
1874, when there was a lull Republican
Board, and closing with this year we find
t t the exi-euses of the countv have
.. . ... - -
actually been rtduod much more than
oue-half. Here is an exhibit of the ex
penses for the pa6t seven years ;
In 1874 the running expenses of the
oounty were $57,907 16; in 1875 they
were $55,808' 98; in 1876 theywere $45,
668 52; in 1877 they were $40,442 53
in 1878 they were $4,037.37;- n 1879
they were $31 516 95; and . in 1880 they
will be about $24,862 97, a difference
between 1874, when there was a full ReL.
publican Board, and 1880, when there is a I
full Democratic Board, of $33,044.17.
The estimate for 1880 is made by taking
tbe actual expenses for the past ten
months, $20,637 60 and adding thereto
tbe expenses last year fcr July and Aug,
ust. The fiscal year, be it understood,
ends August 31st.
In 1874 a floating debt of $35,000 was
funded and in 1876 Mr. B. G. Worth
and Capt. 1, B. Grainger, who were put
on the board, found not only this bond d
debt of $85,000 but a floating debt of
$33,000, which they succeeded in funding
for $30 200. These gentlemen were
called to the Board by the Republicans
themselves who had got everything Into
such a perfect snarl and waste tint they
could neitner d'sentangle nor rconc
miza. Messrs Worth and Gra inger sue
ceeded in reducing the expenses of tbe
county Borne $10,000 during the first
year they were on the Board and during
the second year they reduced them $5,000
more. In 1878, it was increied about
$500 over 1877. In 1879, when tth
present Board went into office, that being
the first year of the full DemocraticBoard,
the expensypf. the county were still
further reduced $9,500 and this year the
same Board have brought them down
still further and to the extent of $7,000.
But this is not all. Not only have the
expenses of the couity been redu'sd by a
wholesale process but the present Board
have paid $30,500 of thd $35,000 debt
contracted in 1871.
The tax levy this year, jt is estimated,
will be but 63 cents 24 cents less than
that of last year, and of th:i 63 cents 10
per cent is to be set aside for a sinking
fund to be created to pay ofi; the balance
of the bonded debt, which will mature
in 1887.
We are indebted to Col. Jno. D. Tay
lor, Clerk of the Board of Commissicners,
for these figures, and it is with peculiar
pleasure that we give them publication.
We doubt if there is j a county
in j me state wmcn can maae
as good a sho.'ig ; Jfyaere is, we would
rke to hear from it. This is Democratic
work, and it is a pract'eal and cheerful
instance wherein the promts to the per
pie have been fuelled. All honor j to
Mr. Worth, and to the memory of the
lamented papt. Grainger, and to the
pre "int Chairman and Board, for this
nagni5cent demonstration of what hon-'
esty, capacity rnd integrity in office an
accompiisn ior me Denent oi me peopie.
