From Monday's Dally. A young white man, yesterday af ternoon, gave a negro, named Matthew Ferris, a dollar with Vhlch to buy him some whisky,; and as the negro did not return he staggered under the. old Town Hall, and rang the fire alarm bell, ! probably . under the, impression that he would find his man by this method, e 'as-arrested toy the po-; lice and locked up. ; This , act undoubt edly saved his life; The negro Ferris, returning with the whisky, failed to find the young man, and promptly be gan to drink the liquor himself.. Fif teen minutes afterwards he walked Into the dining room of his home, adjoining Peoples' Livery Stable, fell across the table and expired, in the presence of his wile ana cniiaren. ., ; , V , The police are making a vigorous search for the person from whom tho negro obtained the whisky. 'Why it ' is, that people will drink this "blind tiger" poison, in the face of the fact that a number of persons have been killed By it recently Is . beyond our comprehension. This fact alone should put the venders of "white lightning" out of business. ' ., . : .' ,.; 'V TO REFUND MONEY, Of Subscribers of Flood Relief fund. ,' .

In Flea Hill Township. From Monday's Daily. Robinson Elliott was shot esterday at his Home in Flea Hill township by Deputy Sheriff Claud Godwin, and was badly, though not necessarily fatally, wounded. . ' V ' He was brought to Fayettevllle this afternoon, and is now in the hospital. It seems that Mr, Godwin had a war rant for the arrest of Elliott on a charge of disposing ot mortgaged prop erty, and accompanied by Mr. Lon Page, he" went to Elliott's house to serve It. When they laid hands on Elliott, he turned on them and fought them desperately. In the meantime, it is said, Elliott's daughter ran out ot the bouse with a shot gun, and as Elliott reached for It, Mr. Godwin shot him. The ball struck Elliott Just below the thigh, shattering -the big bone to pieces. - Condition Serious. ' The condition of Robinson Elliott, who was shot, while resisting" arrest by deputy Sheriff Claud Godwin, and who Is In the Hlghsmith hospital, is serious, and the chances of his re covery are slight. .' "y:;"-:;-, y"'-" A VALUABLE HISTORICAL FIND. Relic of the Sixteenth Century. Young Horry Wakeland, son ot our townsman, Mr. C. R. Wakeland, in plowing a day or two ago, unearthed spear point, used In the 16th cen tury It is twelve inches long, and from , it branches out a small hook. It Is an exact reproduction ot the pic tures .one sees of the weapon carried by the soldiers ot the sixteenth Cen tury.- "... .; Mr. Wakeland's Theory of the Above. This relic found by my son Is evi dently a very ancient piece ot metal, also workmanship, and is exactly like the ancient hook lance used by the Spaniards and French in the 16th century before gun-powder had come into universal use, especially in (mail firearms. Refer to any good universal history of that period and the engraving will have in it men in armor bearing this weapon. , At this time the armor was "breast armor," and the hook used was to Jerk for ward the enemy, so that a thrust in the back would be possible. How this Instrument of war got here is only a matter of conjecture as there is no in scription on the-blade nor local tra dition to offer light, but it might have found Its way here by one or two ex plorations which took place In this vacinity at an early date. In 1520 a Spaniard, Vasquez de Ayllen, visited this coast in search ot Indians which he captured and carried away to work in the mines ot Hayti as slaves. It is an historical fact that he mado repeated excursions Inland from the Carolina- coasts after this and one or two "of his vessels sank In a storm at sea with all on board lost, though his own vessel escaped serious dam age. He was afterward appointed Gov. ot Chlcora, as South Carolina was then called, by Chas. V of Spain, but the Indians remembered his villianous con duct and murdered his entire colony, and he returned to Spain ,in disgrace. .In 1524 Yerrazzanl, an Italian navi gator, employed by the French, touch ed the shores of North Carolina at Wilmington, but did not land,, he went southward and then returned north ward, part of tbe Journey overland, and as he made a special report of this section, calling it "an earthly Par adise" it Is not at all Improbable that he left this new found relic In this vicinity. Andas and Barlow explored the. Albemarle and Pamlico regions but there is no record of their having been this far south or inland, nor did Englishmen make much use of this Instrument of war.. - " Laudonnlere and Rlbault, French men, and Melendes, a, Spaniard, fought some fierce battles around Fort Caro lina on the SL John River, but there Is no record of their being In this section.- .... t.v... . De Sota in 1638 passed northward through Alabama and his soldiers used this kind of an instrument but none ot the stragglers of his army probably were near here. By the time of the settlements In North Carolina and Soutn - Carolina by the English, this hook lance had become obsollte and so it could hardly be possible- that our ; English fore bears are responsible. ' In my Judg ment the most reasonable theory that either Yerraszanl, the Italian ex plorer, or De Ayllen, the Spanish slave trader, pirate and buccaneer, not only lost this relio but the soldier who carried it, in battle with the In dians. I am not an archaeologist by any means, and of course, do not know, but It any reader per ohance is, or has a better theory I for the sake ot en lightenment would ; be " glad to " hear from him, v " , '! :- S ' AUTRYVILLE ITEMS. Mr. Jim Beard of near Cedar Creek, N. c. while crossing the tree ferry at Fayettevllle, happened to an accident Saturday morning. . The; ferry boat had reached the west side of the river, and Just as he was clearing the boat his mule became frightened, and he was thrown into the water.

Nearly All From Tuesday's Dally. It was three o'clock this morning when the representatives of the six teams in tbe Eastern Carolina League, who had been in ssslon In the In dustrial Club, since eight o'clock last night, adjourned, having completed a schedule of .the games to be played and adopted a set ot by-laws. . The meelng was presided over by President T. M. Washington, of Wilson, with Secretary It. T. Gowan, of Ral eigh, at his post. .The following were the representatives of the six teams present: R. L. Gwaltney, Wilming ton; Mr. Alcocks Rocky Mount; J. C. Eagles, Wilson; H. E. King, Golds- boro; J. C. Eagles, proxy for Raleigh; their representative being delayed by tbe Raleigh and Southport train run ning off the track at Lllllngton; F. H. Cotton, Fayettevllle. ,.- , : ' ," C. D. White, representing Spauldlng and Company was present, to submit contracts for uniforms, balls, bats and other baseball paraphenalia, ; i ... ' ' It was decided to play 90 games, 45 at each home town, Each team will play in white uniform while on the home ground, in such colored uniforms as they may adopt while, playing abroad.' A set ot by-laws, materially the same as those of last season was adopted. After lengthy discussion, and much giving and taking, a schedule submitted by Mr. R. L. Farmer, ot Wil son, was adopted, at 3 o'clock and then the weary representatives adjourned. During the evening, the - visitors were entertained by the local repre sentatives at a -light luncheon. In another column will, be found the full schedule. As will be seen by the schedule, published elsewhere, Fayettevllle bar gins the season, at Wilson, May 17, 18, 19; and ends it at Fayettevllle, with Wilson, August 23rd, 24th, and 25th. . 8EVEN DEMOCRATIC TRAITORS. - Help to Continue Cannon Czar. Mr. Thos. J. Pence, Washington cop respondent of the Raleigh News and Observer, says in today's paper: This was the most eventful day in the House of Representatives In a quarter of a century. The Democrats had a chance to change the one man rules that prevail in that body and to once more make the House a delib erative body, but they failed, of this opportunity by reason of the desertion of members of their own ranks. "The Republicans have openly boast ed that they would be able to get a sufficient number ot Democratic votes to prevent a change of the rules. They spoke with certain knowledge. The Democratic votes they needed they re ceived. It was a sad day tor a brave and militant fighter like Champ Clark, whose leadership Is the most courageous Democrats have known in recent times. The insurgents put up a strong front Twenty-nine of them stood with the Democracy for the strangulation of Cannonism. At one time It ap peared that these - insurgent Republi cans and Democrats would be able to change the rules, but their victory was short-lived. They won out by a majority of four on the question of turning down the old rules. This .vote which was a preliminary one, threw consternation In the ranks of organ ized Republicans and they decided to put through the amendments to the rules offered by Fltsgerald, of Brook lyn, New York! Democrat. The Flts gerald amendments, which amount to nothing, were supported by the Can- nonites and the bolting Democrats and were opposed by the Democratic organization. '" ".""' The Insurgent, Fitzgerald,' deserted his party to pull chesnuts out of the fire for the Republican -organisation. It is said here that he has been prom- 1 a position on the rules commit tee by Speaker Cannon. ' His very appearance on the floor of the House to-day evoked the enthusiastic ap plause of old-time Republicans, while his Democratic colleagues greeted him with Jeers. : - The Democrats I who gave backbone to the Republicans and brought about the defeat in the effort to change the rules were, Moon, ot Tennessee; Goldtogle, who left a sick bed to vote; Gordon and Conroy, of New York; Broussard and Estopinal, of Loulsana, and O'Connel, of Massa chusetts. They are being condemned by their party colleagues while Re publicans refer to them In a way not altogether complimentary." SplveyTo Hang. The Wilmington Star of today says: "Judge W. J. Adams, ot Carthage, was lr-the-cltyyesterday and Solici tor N. A. Slnclar7--ot-Fayettevllle, was here Sunday on , their way to Southport where they will hold Bruns wick Superior Court this Week. They had Just completed the term oi uia- den Superior Court at Ellxabethtown with' the conviction of the negro Hen ry Spjvey ot the murder ot his father-in-law, Frank Shaw, a respectable and well-to-do colored citizen living near Abbottsburg. Judge Adams sentenced th Befendant to hang on May 11th, At" first It was thought that Spivey would have to be sentenced to' electro cution at Raleigh as provided' in the new law Just , passed by, the Legis lature but inquiry of the Attorney Gen eral developed the fact that the new law does not apply, where crimes were committed prior to the ratification of the act." "V-.,;- Sheriff Ellington Again Honored. At the caucus of the House Demo crats in Washington -yesterday,- ex- Sheriff J. T, Ellington, of Johnston county, father of our -townsman, Mr. J. O.

O 12 3 9 1 9 12 Improving the Quality, Increasing the Quantity of Tobacco Crops The ambition of every tobacco planter is to secure the largest possible crop of the best possible quality and this is most surely, easily, and quickly accomplished by the use of Virginia-Carolina Fertilizers As a rule the more liberal the amount of these fertilizers used per acre, the better the results. Mr. John F. Cunningham of Cunningham, N. C, probably one of the largest tobacco growers in the world, says : I have been using your fertilizer for twenty years. I have sold tobacco made by this fertilizer as high as 00c a lb. VirginiaaCarolina Fertiliier is used by the best tobacco farmers in the Tobacco States. It stands upon its merits. There is no better fertilizer made or used in the United States. I take great pleasure in recommending it not only to the farmers of Virginia and North and South Carolina, but to all the tobacco growers in the Union." The beat rttulta art invariably obtained with the use of Virginia-Carolina Fertilizer. Over one million tone were eold latt near. Be sure and get the 1900 Virginia-Carolina Farmers' Year Book from your fertiliier dealer, or write our nearest sales office and a copy will be sent free. Virginia-Carolina Chemical Co.
