11 GHASTLY CRIME-
A Second Bill Sykes Murder in
Greensboro.
SONLY RYAN'S DEED.
Crept Upou his Wife and Shot
Her.
Not in the history of Greenss
boro, N. C , has there ever oo
curred a more brutal or uncalled
for murder than the one that
happened Saturday afternoon in
the southeastern part of the city,
at 7 o'clock.
The murder of Nancy Sykes
by Bill Sykes pales into insig
nificance by the side of this one
The facts are these : Sonly
Ryan, a fugitive from justice,
with thiee warrents out for his
arrest, one for cruely beating
his wife, stole back to the city
Saturday, waited until his
hardworking, faithful partner
for life, had collected twelve
hard earned dollars from her
boarders, then, when she came
out of the house with the money
to go to pay off her weekly ac
count at a grocery store, this
fiend in human guise, stepped
up to her, and, with his hands
. -a
on ner throat, demanded tlie
money.
On being refused, he shot her
three times, once in the head
and in the breast, the third shot
probably going wide:- The
poor woman fell and died al
most instantly. A negro woman
who is in the employ of the
Ryans, saw Sonly when he step
ped up to his wife and asked for
the money, and, when, she saw
him draw the pistol, she ran
screaming into the house, and
told the Ryan children, two
daughters and some boarders,
that the man was trying to shoot
the mother. They got to the
door just la tiue to see the shoot-1
ing. One of the daughters got;
here 111 time to try to prevent
the horrible tragedy, tut Sonly,
after accomplishing the horrid
deed, turned on his daughter
and started to shoot her. On
seeing the men he changed his
purpose and ran down an alley
way and escaped.
As the news was carried up
own to the police headqnarters
officers were - sent in pursuit,
and orders were given to shoot
him on sight if necessary..
Sonly Ryan's whole life has
been a career of crime.
He has been in jail probably
a dozen times for stealing and
beating his wife. A few years
ago he was in jail for theft, and
while there became sick, or pre
tended to be sick, and professed
conversion at a meeting held in
ail by some religious organiza
ion, and a petition was handed
around which effected his re
lease.
It was only a short while un
til he was again at his old tricks
and he was supposed to be some
where in Randolph county,
where the murder was commit
ted. Ryan has eight children, two
of whom were at the house at
the time of the murder, ...
Mrs." Ryan - is spoken of 7 as a
hard working,-1 respectable 1 wo
man by the neighbors, and was
supporting herself and children
by keeping boarders.
This affair has stirred the
town from top to bottom, and
knots of men s and around the
street corners discussing it in
tones of anger.

CROKER ONPARKIIURST.
Says He Has a Vicious Tongue
and Sets Dangerous Example.
At Lakewood Richmond Crok
er paid his respects to the re
turned Ur. Parkhurst, in a con
versation half in the nature of a
public interview. He said:
"There is not a man in New
York whose tongue is more
vicious, whose example is more
dangerous, who has scattered
more that is bad all over the
greater city. He vilifies his fe1
low men, he who poses as a
preacher of the gospel. He
sets up the-example of falsehood
. . t . e
to tlie corrnntion ot the voiincr
and innocent. Is this the lesson
he' wishes the people to Le
brought up under? Are these the
instructions he wants to give to
fellow men, to children? His
attacks are not worth serious
attention, except to call attention
to tlie damage he is doing by
the example he is setting.
"His dabbling in politics re
suited in more corruption of peo
ple previously innocent than any
other thing that has happened
in this country. Pretending to
be a force wording for good, he
developed into a force that work
ed out in overflowing measure
evil and injury to mortality be
yond compiehension. The peo
ple of common sense, of good
lite,' the men who love decency,
who hold truth in full respect,
and who abhor hypocrisy, are
done with men of the Parkhurst
type"
INTELLIGENT FISH.
Sailor Claims That Those of
India Know Their Names.
Third mate Charles Hender
son, of thefoursmasted bark
Australia, now at Eric basin,
tells a story, on the truth of
which he is willing to stake his
honor as a British gentleman's
son, says the New York World.
"Before sailing for India, my
family gave ine a letter to the
Rajah Bun Barahari, of Burd
wan, forty-five miles northwest
of Calcutta," says Mr. Hender
son. ' "The Rajah, as you know,
belong to the highest caste, and
in religious knowledge and prac
tices are co-equal with the priests
although they are not called up
on tQ exercise priestly functions.
The have the same powers of
divination and producing myste
ries as the fakirs and fanatics.
Well, the Rajah received me
kindly, and showed me around
his 'splendid estate. In the
course of our strolling we came
to a large pool, containing gold,
fish, trout, salmon, tench and
many other fine specimens,
some-more than afoot in length.
"The Rajah called to a ser
vant to bring a loaf of bread,
which he crumbed and cast in
to the water, while the fish
flocked to devour the'food.
"Then the Rajah called to the
different fishes by name. As
obediently as a dog or child,
each finny pet, when summoned,
darted. to the steps, flopped out
of water and caught on the fly
its reward from the generous
Rajah:, while those fish that
were hot called stayed in the
background.

PRISONER IN A RAT CAGE
Rodents Feasted on an Uncon
scious Man's Body.
Xobert Croak, a farmer, at
1
Sharon Center, Pa., was found
unconscious in the loft of his
granery a few days ago, with a
drove xf rats literally eating him
up. His terrior dead beside
him. Croak's nose was chewed
off, and his face, hands and neck
were a mass of bloody wounds.
The men who found him were
attracted to the granary loft by
the terrible squealing of the rats.
When the granary door was
opened they escaped. Croak
was soon revived sufficiently to
tell his story.
He had arranged a large cage
in the loft ot the granary in
which to catch rats, but after
fixing the trap he had forgotten
it for nearly a week. On going
to inspect it, he found the cage
litterally covered with rats. He
put the terrior inside to battle
mem, out ine dog was soon
overpowered by the half starved
A 1 . . W
rodents and was killed.
Armed with two clubs, Croak
entered the cage himself, for
getting to set the spring lock on
the outside of the door. The
door closed and he was a pris
oner among the rodents. The
rats swarmed over; him and bit
him wherever his body was ex
posed. He closed his eyes and
fought right and left, but the
awful odor in the cage overcame
him and he fell unconscious.
A doctor who examined Croak
says that unless blood-poisoning
follows he will recover. His
head is so swollen that the phy
sician is unable to say whether
his eyesight has been destroyed
or not.
There were twenty dead rats
in the cage. The men who res
cued Croak declare there muit
have been 200 in the pack.

THORN IS SENTENCED.
To be Electiocuted in Week
Beginning January 10th.
Martin Thorn, or Torces
wiskey, convicted last week of
the murder of Win. Gulden
suppe, at New York, was sen
tenced to be electrocuted in the
week beginning Janiary xoth,
1898.
When Thorn was brought
into court in Long Island City
he stepped as briskly, walking
between two officers, as he had
done on the days when he was
on trial. He preserved the
same calm. imDerturbable ex-
pression of countenance that he
had worn at every crisis in the
working out of his fate during
the trial, and when, as a prelim
inary to the passing of the sen
tence of death, Judge Maddox
put the customary questions to
him, he responded promptly, col
lectedly and without outward
evidence of emotion.
Thorn listened to the sen
tence without moving a muscle,
and when the judge had finished
he reclined his head slightly for
ward as it bowing to the court.
The prisoners lawyers then
handed up an affidavit applying
for an appeal. Justice Maddox
took the affidavit and will pass
on it later. Thorn has been re
moved to Sing Sing.

THE OVSTER INDUSTRY.
Annual Catch in North Carolina
Now is Only About 6,000
Bushels.
In a letter to the Labor Com
missioner, Mr. iheophilus
White, Chief oyster inspector
for the State, estimate that there
are three thousand persons or
et
more in tue Mate engaged in
the oyster industry. Between
e
5,000 and 6.000 bushels are
caught annually and sold at
from 1 5 to 80 cents a bushel.
"The supply of oysters in the
sounds and rivers ot North Caro
lina," says Mr. White "is almost
inexhaustable, and all the in
dustry uecds to make a gr&nd
success is a market sufficient to
Induce buyers to come to the
State. And to do that, dredg-
ing must take the place, in part,
of tongs, which is a slow method
of taking oysters. Dredging
will increase the catch and nec
essarily build up a market, and
our prices would be better and
he revenue would pour in to
educate the poor children of the
State.

The Farmer and His Friend.
The dispatches have told that
as the outcome of a meeting of
South Carolina cotton growers
at Columbia during the recent
State Fair, an invitation has
been issued to the farmers of
he South to hold a convention
in Atlanta on the 14th of De
cember to consider the interests
of the cotton-raisers. It is stated
now, that the politicians have
taken right hold of the move
ment, and doubtless by the time
the meeting convenes they will
have all their plans laid for ta
king, it in hand. You can(f. lose
the modern politician. Just say
"farmer," or "tanners' conven
tion" and see him jump. It is
said every time you see a diite
horse you see a red-headed
woman, and it has almost got to
the point where you see a farm
er you see a politician with his
hand on his sleeve. The farmers
never had as many friends in
their.lives.and when they organ
ize a movement ot any kind
theyifind all the help they need
in pushing it along. These po
litical helpers rode the Grange
to death in short order. When
the Alliance was organized it
shut jits door in the faces of the
lawyers ; but though it kept the
lawyers out it shut the politi
cians' in, and they proceed to
farm the farmers in great shape.

It is often a mystery how a cold has
been "caught." The fact is, however,
that when the blood is poor and the
system depressed, one becomes pecu
liarly j liable to diseases. When the
appetite or the strength fails, Ayer's
Sarsaparilla should be taken without
delay.
