The front end of thi car was enveloped in a volume of smoke and steam, belch ing up from th-- wrecked engines, and the rear door was jammed tight in the wreck of the car behind. In climbing out of the smoking car several men fell through the rifts into the wreck below, and it is impossible to tell whether they escaped or were burned to death. The west-bound train carried seven or eight coaches, and its passengers included many excursionists, who had been to hear Hon. W. J. Hryan speak at the county fair at Burlingame. Mr. Bryan himself was on the train, but was riding in the rear Pullman. He states that nothing but a t heavy jolt was experienced by the passengers in his coach. Mr. Bryan was one of the foremost in the crowd of rescuers. He helped to carry out the dead and wounded, and gave the gi ea'-'st, atten tion to their care.

Besides contributing liberally to provide granite headstones for the graves of the gallant North -Carolina dead, Mr. Charles Broadway Rouss, the generous New York millionaire, has an nounced his readiness to pay one-half the cost of the proposed monument, whatever that sum may be. Mr. Rouss has also announced his purpose to pay tribute to the North Carolina dead by participating in the ceremonies, though he is now totally blind. Iter. In. James B. Avirett. rector of an Kpiscopar church in Western North Carolina, has accepted the invitation to deliver an address at the corner-stone lwying. Many North Car li uians now residing in Baltimore will steem it both a duty atid a sad pleasure to take part in the ceremonies. Balt'rnore Sun. THE DURHAM AND CH A RL TTR v , ROAD. ' Work is now progressing on a new railroad from Dm ham to Charlotte, which will be a valuable addition to the roads now in operation. It will run through the rounties rf Durham. Chatham. Moore, Montgomery. Stanley. Carbarrus. and Mecklenburg, good counties, all of them, rirh in agricul tural resources, timber, mineral's, quar ries, and water i owers. and for lack of railroad facilities, comparatively un developed. Seventeen mii have been constructed and in operation, with six miles more graded, and work is to be pushed through Chatham county en to Durham. The object se-m to be to make this continuation of the Lynch burg and Durham road, v i h which it will connect at Durhanruwhieh, with connection at Charlotte, gives anoher through line North and So'ath. arid another competing ine with the South ern system. This v as one of the con siderations that fig -ed in the granting of the Charter in 1 s.13; in which it was stipulated that thi road should never he leaded or sold to the Southern, or any of its successors. Running through the tritory it dofs it is an enterprise in which the State is interested. Wil mington Star. TELLS THE INNER LIFE OF ROY ALTY. London court circles are enjoying a sixteen-page booklet, written entirely in cvnher by a minor royal personage in which amusing stories and farts con nected with the inner life of members o$ the royal circles are set out in the most unvarnished manner. Most of the matter in this publication concerns Emperor William of Germany, and , the writer asserts that 6.600 people are lan guishing in the Orman state prison? on charges of les- inajeste. The book let is in great demand. Tt is said to be like pages from "The Pickwick Pa pers." MRS. BLACK HAWK A SUICIDE. Mrs. Black Hawk, wife of the noted Cheyenne Chief Black Hawk, commit ted suicide on Sa'urday by cutting her throat. This is the first fcime in the history of the Ir.dMans that a squaw has committed suicide.. It is said that Black Hawk, who has' more than one wife, had said he was going to discard his squaw and that is the reason for the suicide. GOV. ELLERBEE IN THE STATE. And the "Governor of North Caroli na said to the Governor of South Caro lina that it" had been a long time since he was in this State. Any way Gov. W. H. Ellerbee, of that State, is at the Benbow, arriving last night en route to visit Senator McLaurin at his country home near Mt. Airy. Greensboro Rec ord. . His party is not proud of Governor Russell and claims what every one e'se knows, that he is politically dead. The North Carolina branch of the Re publican party made a grand blunder when they elected Russell to the im portant position of "Governor of North Carolina. He is a" demagogue, a tyrant and a failure. Rocky Mount Argo naut. FOOLED THE LAST TIME.

They have fool ed the people their last time. Danbury Reporter. KILLED HIS OWN WIFE. A Horrible Crime Perpetrated by a Rockingham Farmer. The Greensboro Telegram tells of a shocking- crime that occurred in Rock- ingham county: I Geo. Craig, a farmer living on what is known as the Cornelius Williams place, walked into the room where his wife lay on a bed of sickness Thurs day afternoon, picked up a revolver and shot her as deliberately as if she had been a beef. She was lying (W the bed with her face turned toward the door and spoke to her husband as he entered the room. His reply was a ball from the revolver held in his hand. The woman died in a few hours. THE DIFFERENCE IN MANNERS. A recent writer deplores the bad manners of the dancing people of to day. The gentleman of the old style asks: "May I have the exquisite de light of being your ladyship's cavalier in the coming country dance?" "Oh, sir. you are vastly polite, and I am overwhelmed by your request," says the lad v. "Then I do not make too bold?" "Oh. sir. I would not have you misconstrue my words." "I then reck on upon your treading the measure with your devoted servant?" "I may not say you nay. sir," courtesying. "Madam. you are loo er-naescenning . i win uoi fail to claim your hand." retiring with courteus humility. The gentleman of the new style says: Ah. Lady Florence, got an entry left. I or is: vour book full? "Well, there s a onadnlle running loose." says the lady looking at her card. "Oh. hang quad rilled. I'm not out for walking exer cise Not on the square: twiggey- vous?" says the gentleman. "You funny old cripple! Here's a polka I'm not sure about." "A polka! That's niv form. Well, fire right in to the brown of 'em. and have a glass of tht? bov afterwards, eh?" "It's a bet." says the lfldv. -'Done. So long." says the centleman. tie strolls tiff, humming a popular air. THE AFTERNOON Nj EWSPAPER. Newspaper men are recognizing the growing importance o journal, and it is not the evening lneonimon for those who make up moriling papers, the editors and reporters, to ihev ran condense fron tell how' much the evening papers for the next dafc- edition. The exchanges a morning paper refers to or reads are the journals of the pre centric evenmK- Take the leading 'evening papers of anv prominent American uy, reau them, and then consider how much es- i i j : I c . V- senna I news you nae him nom me latter. We say this because people are apt to le non-critical, ana to call their attention to the lact that the world s business is done in daytime not at night. This is so often overlooked that men read tomorrow w nat is in ine e erring paper and give the latter no credit. In the matter of reading critically the lewspapers one is reminded of the fa mous saying of m. James m noiy writ: He is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass. I-or he be h'oldeth himself and goeth his way. and itraisrhtwa- fnveetteth what manner- of nan he was."

"We are ..n the -e?-ge of a leat min ing era." remarked Clarence King, for merly chief of the United States geo logical survey. "'The time is pot fat distant when a man can start out of Denver and travel to Klondike, stop ping every night at a mining camp. Already two American stamp nulls are pounding away on the binders of the Straits of Magellan, and the day is ap proaching when a chain of mining camps will extend from Cape Horn to St. Michaels. I believe we are about to enter upon a century which will open up vast resources, and will be the grandest the earth has ever known. Before the end of the 20th century the traveler will enter a sleeping car at Chicago bound via Bering straits for St.. Petersburg, and the dream of Gov ernor Gilpin will be realized." GOOD OUTLOOK FOR COTTON. Secretary Hester, of the New Orleans Cotton exchange, recognized as the best authority on the cotton business in the South, tells us that the number of mills nd the number of spindles in this sec tion have increased, that the visible supply of the staple is less this year than last and that the home consump tion is likely to be greater. This, coup led with the drought in India cutting off the crop there, and the prosperity of the western wheat producers enlarg ing the demand here, ought to give our producers a good price for their crop even if it proves a phenomenally large one. as now seems probable. Atlanta Journal. TH E BOY MURDERER MARRIED. Avery Butler, who was pardoned Sat urday and reached home Sunday, is said to have been married in Kentucky some three years ago, while at large, after escaping from the penitentiary. He will probably go to Kentucky soon o see his wife. At present he is with his mother here. His relatives are all delighted to have him free and with them again. Sampson Democrat. "MILLIONS IN IT." As is well known, the Republican party could not possibly dispose of all the money which the trusts poured in to its strong box last fall. About a million and a half dollar's was left over, and of this sum Mark Hanna is the custodian. He proposes to use it in such a manner as to best promote the interest of the Republican party. Manchester Union MOULDS OF A CHARLOTTE MELON Excellent progress is being made in making, changes of exhibits in various departments of the State Museum.

Speaking of the mixed condition of North Carolina politics, an exchange says there are. eight distinct political factions in the State gold Democrats and silver Democrats, railroad Demo crats and anti-railroad Democrats. Russell Republicans and Pritchard Re publicans, Butler Populists and Skinner Populists. SHE COULD DO IT.

SOUTHERN'S Hit? NEW- LOCOMO TIVES. The Southern railway has under con struction at the Richmond Locomotive Works the three largest and strongest passenger locomotives in the world, and in a month or so they will be pull ing the Washington vestibule over the mountains. The Southern railway proposes to make a schedule of sixty miles an hour, with heavy trains of sleepers, and it is for this purpose that these leviathans of the rail ar being built. The railway has a contract with the United States government for a last mail service over this line, and every time an hour is lost there is a tine of $500. Trie officials of the line propose to make the schedule, winter or sum mer, whether trains are extra heavy ot not, and the addition ot a tew sleepers will not count for much with a locomo tive which can pull on a straight level track thirty-three sleepers, weighing forty tons each.

CAR FAMINE IX'THK SOUTH. The remarkable boom in business has created a car famine on the Southern railroads. E. C. Spalding is general manager of several large equipment companies which own more than 12,000 freight cars, leased to railroads east of the Mississippi river, covering almost the entire territory from New England to the gulf. Every car which his con cern controls is now in active service and he is not only running two shops in Atlanta to put old cars in good con dition. Every road in the Southern States is short of cars. Mr. Spalding says that the present demand for cart is greater than it has been for any pe riod in the pnst five years, and is in creasing daily. RETURNS TO CHARLOTTE. The Salisbury World says: "As for merly noted in the World, Mr. Springs Steele has been transferred from tht Spencer offices to Capt. W. B. Ryder's otfic in Charlotte. Owing to this change there has been a number of other changes in the unices. Air. Steele is succeeded by Mr. W. H.

The sheriff of Wake county an nounces he has the tax books in hand and will soon begin business, we sup pose. The putting of men in jail foi debt will probably begin at Raleigh, where the barbaric ' law was enacted. When the jails are full the sheriff might use the State capitol for pris oners, beginning with the Governor's office. Wilmington Messenger. FOR PENSIONS $140,477,637.76.

They hael been sitting there for some time, she toying with a parasol and he- talking about art anel other Uninteresting things. It was evident that she was provoked and he- well, he was just thoughtless. Finally she spoke. "In view of the length ef time we have been here." said. "I should think you would have a little sand." In truth, what is the advantage of sitting half an hour on the beach in the gloaming if one is not permitted to give a gentle- hint when nee-essary? i 'hicago Post. DROVE OFT THE NEGRO. The Bakersville correspondent of Asheville Register writes: the "Along- the border ef Mitchell coun ty, near the Tennessee and North Car olina line, is the precinct of Big Rock rn'k. with prebably 250 voters in it. As good citizens as live in this hos pitable county are within its borders, but there are L'5 or 50 men, desperate, characters, who have given this part of the county a very bad name. Not withstanding it is strongly Republican in politics, a negro is not allowed to live within its precincts." IS NOT A GOVERNOR. A man atter ne reacnes years or ma turity is supposed to be able to govern himself, to have control over his ac tions, and not be swayed by emotions. In fact ought to be governor of himself in every way. North Carolina has to day a chief executive who is mistaken ly called governor, but only by the vote of last November is he any way en- .itled to be so designated, for neither I over his people, nor himself has he shown that he was a governor.
