CHILDREN KILLED BY TRAIN.
Sad Accident Near Thomasvilie Sun
day Morning.
Thomasvilie, Aug. 14. This morn
ing about 8.30, Vada Cook and Hazel
Myers, two little girls between 8 and
10 years old, were killed about five
miles north of this place by north
bound passenger train No. 44. The
two girls, accompanied by their
mothers, had gotten off of train No.
11, from High Point, at Lake, and
were coming up the railroad track to
a Mr. Freedles, a relative of theirs,
who lives a mile north of Lake. As
they were coming up the track they
met a freight train going south and
getting out of tha way of the freight
train got in the way of train No. 44
going north. The two little girls
were struck in the back of the head
and their skulls were crushed, kill
ing them instantly, the mothers bare
ly escaping death by being only a
little further away from the track.
The remains of the two children were
carried to High Point for burial. The
inquest will be continued on account
of the lack of witnesses until Wed
nesday morning. Cononer Dr. J. W.
Peacock started the inquest at the
scene this morning.
Dr. Clarence Pickens Kills Two
Brothers Near AsheviUe.
Asheville, Aug. 13. As the result
of a dispute over office rental, Dr.
Clarence Pickens a dentist of Weav
erville ten miles from here, to-night
shot and instantly killed two brothers,-Rome
and Furman Capps. Dr.
Pickens claims that he had to shoot
in self defense. He is now in the
custody of officers. As best the facts
can be obtained at this time, it seems
that some days ago Dr. Pickens, who
rents an office from the father of the
Capps boys, had a dispute as to the,
rent. To-night this dispute was re
newed, Pickens claiming that he
had paid the rent in advance. Then
he claims that the Capps boys jump
ed upon him, cutting his coat in sev
eral places and making several flesh
wounds, when he was compelled to
shoot in self defense. Weaverville is
all wrought up about the affair.
This makes three of the Capps boys
that have been shot to death. It was
last fall that the first was killed by
young Ben Morris, Jr., near the Mor
ris home on the road to Weaverville.
After being clearedby the coroner's
jury on the grounds of self defense,
young Morris was re-arrested and
tried, and is now serving a year in
the penitentiary at Raleigh.
