As a religious man there was no brighter exemplar of the character the Christian faith is presumed to develop. He was humble, patient, sincere, con sistent, earnest; and privately and pub licly was a shining light in the Methodist Episcopal church, to which he attached himself in early lite. lie was prominent in the State and general councils of the church, and since 18S3 had been secre tary of the North Carolina annual con ference, and was twice in 1880 and 1890 a representative at the general conference. Of his personal life, his personal rela tions to family and friends, no more need be said than that they were such as might be expected from one in whom the captious scrutiny ol an exacting public had never been able to detect a Haw. Perfect at home, perfect abroad, such a man will not fall short of the rewards of the pure, useful life he led. lie was born in Kalcigli Aprils, 181, the son of Thomas Bain, like himself, a good man, and also like him, closely as sociated with the Masonic fraternity. His education was secured at Lovcjoy's Academy at Rah'igh. He leaves a wife, the daughter of Dr. W. O.

On account of the death of the State Treasurer and Chief Justice Mcrrimon the Democratic jubilee has been indefinitely postponed A BAD MAN. CLEVELAND TO TAMMANY PLAIN, BRAVE WORDS SAID BEFORE ELECTION. lie Ih KcKponalble For Several Hnrdem, there were frequently such marked alter nations as to give hope that bis strong will and hopeful nature would in the end triumph, and that he would eveutuatly come out conqueror over disease and death. Hut while his will and his hope fulness were strong, his constitution was feeble, and in the end he yielded to those forces more powerful than his resistance, and the State is agaiu culled, almost before the sod has settled upon the grave of the late Chief Justice Mcrrimon, to mourn the loss of another public officer; and society, his church, his family and bis friends to lament the departure of one whose place with some can never be filled; with all will leave a gap that time can only slowly lill. Donald W, Bain has been a familiar figure in the place of bis residence since early boyhood, even then looked upon as one destined to fill a conspicuous place in the public eve. And in fact that anticipation was very early realized; for since early niannoou lie had ncen asso ciated with the financial affairs of North Carolina in one or other relation, culmi nating ir that long service in the Treas ury Department for which ins industry, his sagacity, his intelligence ana ins in tegrity gave him peculiar aptitude. An illustration of the value attached to his characteristics is given when a Republi can administration succeeded that of Gov. Worth, under whom Mr. Bain was chief clerk in the Treasury office. Mr. D. A. cnkins had been elected treas urer, and there was loud imme- late clamor for the removal of all Democratic subordinates from the places they held in the several de partments. 1 lie duel clerkship in tnc 1 rcasury Department was a much cov eted prize, and Mr. Jenkins was pcrsis- rentlv beset to remove Mr. Uain, both as a proper party measure and as a fit ting subject of political reward. Mr. Icnkins was a man of sense as well as a man of integrity. He realized the importance of having associated with him in his very responsible position one whose qualities bad been thoroughly tested; one in whose integrity lie could trust; in whose judgment he could confide; upon whose information he could rely; on whose industry he could depend. He was unwilling to risk hisown reputation upon the unproved, uncertain aid of par tisan assistants; and Mr. Bain was re tained; and unbroken harmony, and tin- weakened confidence, and cordial good understanding were maintained between the chief and the subordinate until the close of Mr. Jenkins' term of service, by which time Mr. Ham hud so commenJcd himself to the people of North Carolina for his remarkable business qualities, and his admirable personal characters, that in the Demo cratic nominations for State officers in the campaign of 1884, the public and party eve was intintivcly fixed upon Donald W. Itam as the man imperative! demanded for the position in which financial intelligence, official skill, com prehensive information, personal urban ity and unimpeachable integrity were united to meet all the requirements oi public needs and expectations. Mr. Ham was elected; and never afterwards was their serious proposal of displacing him, as, quadrennially, new tickets were promoted for party consideration. Term after term he had been called upon to retain his seat, with continued fresh de velopcmcnt of his value and abilities. In his relation with the legislature during its sittings, his value was especially con spicuous. A call on him tor informa tion was so promptly and corectly re sponded to, that furtherapplication was rarely made. He was an infallible ency clopedia, with statutory knowledge, financial details and the bases upon which his responses, reports and sug gestions wereconveyed;and was so wise and so accurate that they were accepted always without qualification or discus- sion. He seemed presented as a social creation to which therecould be noequal nor parallel, so promptly, so spontane ously , so accurately, and , withal, so pleas antly wcte the results of his thoughts and the stores of his information dis played for the use and good of the State and the people. Air. nam entered tnc service ol the State in the office of the Comptroller under Governor urogden in 1857, re maining in that capacity until appointed as chief clerk of the Treasury in 1865, which he retained until election as Treas urer in 1884. In January 1885 he was qualified ns Treasurer, and was re-elected at the last general election. In another capacity he has been almost as long, as well, and as favorably known as in that oi Public Treasurer. Since February, 1869, he had been Grand Sec retary of the Grand Lodge of North Car olina, giving another and very conclusive evidence ol the esteem in which he was held, personally and officially; for as in one office, so in the other, with all the mutations ot events, parties and men, Donald W. Bain was so firmly entrenched in the affections, reliance and confidence MiKDEN, I,a., Nov. 17. lerror reigns in Ward one of Webster parish, which borders on South Arkansas. In the northern part ot the parish Sheriff Regan has 150 armed men searching for a des perado, Link Waggoner, and bis confed erates. Waggoner's gang went to Wil liam Holland's last Saturday and fatally shot him while he was holding his baby in his arms. Holland staggered back into another room. Waggoner lins committed numerous criminal acts. Some time time ago he went to Naeadochen, Texas, and, it is said, stabbed a man there and was com pclled to nv for bis life. He has been in this locality but a short time, and has caused much terror among peaceful citi zens. Two cold blooded murders have been committed in the past few days, but no arrests have been made. Hie indica tions point to Waggoner as a perpetra tor of these crimes. POST ELECTION TRAGEDIES1 The President-Elect Would Slake No Pledget to Any Men on Any Subject and WasVerv Emphatic About It. Niiv Yokk, Nov. 17 The Brooklyn Hagle in an editorial strongly denies the published statement that ata dinner at the Victoria hotel at which Mr. Cleve land met Tammany leaders he made promises and stipulations to them in return for their support at his election. The editorial says these politicians learned that Mr. Cleveland would make no promises or any thing of the sort to any of them; that he con sidered the ticket iu this slate a matter of much more importance to them than to him; that he repelled the idea that his Democracy was questionable by them or doubted by any one, and that he would go to the election or to defeat equally free and absolutely uncommitted. Last night at a dinner given by the Manhattan Single Tax club Tbos. G. Shearman, of Brooklyn said that at the now historical dinner there were present Messrs. Cleveland, Whitney, Kdward Murphy.jr., and Richard Croker and Lieutenant Governor Shechan. "Mr. Cleveland has not told me any thing about the pledees he made," said Mr. Shearman, "bi t there hap.iened to be a telephone in the room v. here that din ner was held which has conveyed to me what happened." Mr. Sherman then pictured Lieut. Gov. Shcehan as addressing Mr. Cleveland on the subject of pledges, and said that Mr. Cleveland replied to Sheehan: "Mr. Sheehan, I have listened with ut most attention to what you have said. I have followed you very carefully and I think I understand you perfectly, and what 1 have to say in reply, Mr. Shec lian, is that I will be damned before I'll pledge myself to any man on any subject, whatever, and I'll be doubly damned be fore I give to you those particular pledges for which you have asked at this particular time." GO SLOWLY. That Advice From Far Away Mas be Good. London, Nov. 17. The Times com menting on the speeches of Depew and Rcid, at the New York Chamber of Com merce banquet on Thursday night says: "The eagerness of the defeated party to abrogate the McKinlcy law is itself suffi cient to irspirc the victors with caution. Mr. Cleveland has other and better rea sons for delay. The McKinlcy tariff en list the support of a powerful body of capitalists and a number of working men, and although their forces were van quished by overpowering movement of public opinion it is not desirable to make their defeat too painful and ruinous. A absur- Icy ism to something like endurable tariff will be slow and tenta tive; but it cannot be long postponed, nor can it be restricted bounds.1 within narrow Three Persona Killed mid Fifteen Injured.

QUARANTINE Rl'LES. A StcamHlilp prevented From Landing Her PaaHciiKcra. I'niLAiiiii.PHiA, Pa., Nov. 17. The steamship Indiana which arrived here from Liverpool yesterday, was prevented from landing her passengers, including ll'O imigrnnts and twenty-eight occu pants of the cabin, by the Treasury of ficials. The vessel had satisfactorily passed examination at both the Federal and the State quarantine, although it is claimed 1-y the Board ot Health that the release by the later station was made without authority. When slic arrived at her dock the custom officers took charge of her, and refused to allow her to make entry in the custom house. Their refusal was based upon the fact that the vessel had not observed the twenty day quarantine proclamation is sued by President Harrison on Septem ber 1st. MOV. FLOWER'S AXE.

Jef ferson, eldest son of Joseph Jefferson, the great comedian, was n visitor on Sunday nt Mr. Cleveland's New Y'ork city home. He says the President elect talks little of politics or the election to his intimate friends. 'Mr. Cleveland has been recently re ceiving between 300 and 400 letters a day," continued Mr. Jefferson.
