A serious riot oc curred Saturday at Castlcden colliery near Hartlepool. The trouble grew out of the employment of n non-unionist named Stockdale. The union men at tacked him Saturday evening as he was leaving his work and would no doubt have seriously injured bim had it not been for the interference of the police. The rioters then turned their attention to the latter and hurled a shower of stones at them. A number of policemen were struck by the missiles and badly njurcd. Stockdale took to his heels ami ran to his home. The mob was in strong force and finding that Stockdale had tempora rily escaped them, rushed to the colliery and smashed the engine house to pieces. Then procuring bags and baskets they maden descent upon piles ot coal and every man lugged off as much fuel as he could carry. Again and again they re turned and it is said that they managed to steal a hundred tons of coal. It was impossible for the mine officials or police to prevent them from doing just about is ihey pleased. l'liinally some one in the crowd sug gested they attack Stockdalc's house. 1 Ins suggestion met with instant Ap proval, and howling and veiling, the mob rushed to the house and in a very short time it was totally wrecked. The occupants, however, had been warned in time and made their escape before tin rioters rushed through. Another house in which an official ol the mine resided was set on fire and then. sntislicd fur the time being with the des truction, they withdrew. icstcrday, however, the mob gnthcred again and threatened t wreck all the upper works of thecollicrv. The mine ofh- cials parleyed with the mob and finally, by promising the discharge of Stockdale. in duced the miners to suspend hostilities JUDICIAL CONVENTION. That la the Age of col. Alien T.

Today he ' in full possession of his physical and men tal strength, nnd promises to live long, and uscfullv. May his shadow never grow less! As a lawyer, a legislator nnd as a cit izen, Col. Allen T. Davidson has been known, not only to his personal friends in the western part of the stale, but to the people of North Carolina for more than two generations, and he bids fair to add almost another. Whether at the bar. in the halls of legislation, or as a private citizen. Col. Davidson has nl wavs been true to Ins manhood, and a loyal son of the Old North State. As n lawyer he held a prominent place in that coterie of legal lights composed of N. W. Woodhn, Marcus lvrwm, David Cole man and others. As a member ol the Confederate con gress he displayed powers of thought, and self control (during a period when it meant much) that made his counsels heard nnd his influence felt. As a man he hag always In en honest, true to his section, state and people, nnd his per sonal friendships have been nnd arc numerous and fervid, Lie is proud of Morth Carolina, her traditions, and her achievements. He is genial and whole souled, and like all men of vigorous mind and warm temperament, rcminis cent and fond of a good story. There is a broad streak of original humor runnine through the man, which makes him a boon companion. His name and characteristics of mind nnd disposition have been largely transmit ted to two sons, one the present able attornev ecneral of North Carolina, the other one of the most prominent lawyers in the state ol lexas.

In the senate today Mr. Frye, from the committee on commerce, reported back the house bill to encourage American shipbuilding. He said the report was unanimous and that he had been instructed to move its pres ent consideration. He made that mo tion and it was agreed to. The bill hav ing been rend in full Mr. Frye stated that although it was general in its pro visions two ships only were to be ad mitted to American registry. They were to be excluded from coast-wise trade and might lie used by the government (by char ter or purchase I in case of war. That, he jnnl, was the full extent ot the hill. The two ships to be admitted were the City of New York and the City of Paris, the two largest ships in the world, since the Great Eastern was broken up, the two stnunchest ships in the world, and he might say the two Instcst, except that the Majestic had crossed the ocean in eighteen minutes less time. After some discussion an amendment offered by Mr. Mills to strike out of the bill certain words that might allow the two ships to avail themselves of the pos tal subsidy was rejected without divis ion aud the bill just as it came from the house giving Amcriean registry to the City ol New York and the City of Paris was passed, yens 40, nays 10.
