Mr. Robert Gliaton, aged 24 years, remarkably bright young man and a son of Mr. and Mrs. David Glisson, of Point Caswell, N.

E. Glenn. .Dr. W. J. H. Bellamy and Dr. Jos. Akerman performed an operation early in the aiternoon but It was seen than that the young man's life, was only a ques tion of a few hours. The skull was horribly crushed and there were other bruises on other parte of the body. Gliison with about a dosen other men was engaged in putting one of the massive trusses In place upon which to rest the rafters of the heavy roof. In some way the derrick In use gave way or were was a slip and the big beam of timber, containing nearly a thousand feet, fell fourteen feet, striking the young man on the shoulder and jamming his head against a heavy post and later throwing him to the thick floor with terrific force. ,The other workmen about the timber grasped the situation and ran out of the way. Glisson was conscious at the hospital and talked some with his brother, Mr. D. Glisson, who keeps a grocery atore at 507 Taylor street, but no hope for his recover u vn then entertained. Mr. Glisson had lived in Wilming ton aiz or seven years and was highly esteemed by all who knew him. His father and mother came yesterday in response to a telegram in time to see their son before he died. The deceased leaves four brothers, one of whom is Mr. D. Glisson, of Wilmington, and five sisters. Mrs. W. McD. Evans and Mrs. A. M. Pate, of this city, are aunts of the deceased. The remains will be taken on the A. & Y. train this morning to Atkin son, N.

The fact that all three of the gentle men who were voted for in the pri maries of 1901 are again asking the suffrages of their fellow-citizens is in teresting in Itself ; but the added fact that there are' two other candidates in the field makes the situation doubly Interesting to the political prognosti cated i It may be accepted as a certainty that neither of the five candidates will receive a majority in the primary of next Tuesday, and that the real "tug of war" will come in a second primary to be held next Thursday, when there will be only two candidates to be voted for.

The Warrant from Greensboro to Follow. Superior Court Notes. There was no session of the Superior Court yesterday. It was expected that the grand jury would report and be discharged at 6 o'clock In the evening, but Judge Peebles notified Foreman Qaelch that he would hold the jury together until to-day, when a few more indictments are to be made. The jury completed its Inspection or the various county institutions yesterday morning and had Its report ready for the afternoon. This morning court, will meet at 9 :30 o'clock and the trial for perjury of young Harrison Martin, who claims to be an organizer for the Order of Select Knights, will be entered upon. Hehaa previously been convicted of assault with a deadly weapon and carrying a concealed weapon. His troubles were still further multiplied yesterday when Chief of Police Fur long received a telegram from Mr. a M. Alldredge, of Greensboro, State organizer for the.Select Knights, ask ing him to hold "C. L. Martin" until a warrant could follow. It is pre sumed that the two names are those of the same parson.

In his Shiloh speech Senator Bev eridge quoted "vox populi, vox Dei t est" and said if that wasn't true pop ular government is a failure. We believe some in vox populi ourself, but we don't think Mr. Beveridge would try it in the Philippine. He is one of the hold-your-grips, never-pnll-down-the-flag fellows. The population of Europe has nearly doubled in the past twenty j ear 8, and the increase in America has been three and a half fold. In that time the population of the earth has nearly doubled. At this rate of increase good farming lands will come high after a while. As an illustration of the value and good work done by the life Saving Service, last year there were only 335 lives lest out of 25,567 lives imperilled, while in 1875-76 out of 13,487 endangered 501 lives were lost. And yet there is no branch of the public service less appreciated by our national law makers or less paid than these men, who are constantly hazarding their own lives to save others. The New York Sun calls atten tion to the fact that when Roawell P. Flower was Governor of New York he went to the World's Fair at Chicago and took a lot of Boldiers with him at a cost of $13,000, while Governor Odell will spend $50,000 on his junket. Bnt Flower was a Democratic Governor, and didn't care about putting on so much style at the expense of the taxpayers of the State. A telegram from New York last evening stated that Miss Mary Nash's condition was somewhat im proved. Another received in the morning also contained hopeful news. Fayetteville Otserver: "Rev. J. B.

" The berry season In Florida is near ing an end and the North Carolina product will now open up on the Northern markets. The Jacksonville (Fla.) Times-Union of yesterday has the following to say : Information waa received yesterday that North Carolina had shipped her first ear-load of strawberries, and the growers of Lawtey and Starke appre ciate the fact that It is all off so far as they are concerned. Their berries may mug m paying price for a few dE know j"t as soon as North Carolina comes in the com mission merchants refuse to pay the old price for the Florida crop, and have to turn the Florida berries down just because they will not bring the price.
