Killed Yesterday
by Seaboaid Tiain
Nancy Samples, Aged Colored
Woman Hit and Instantly
Killed by Seaboard Freight
Train Near Sardis Yesterday
Morning.
Nancy Samples, an old colored wom
an, who lived in the 200 block of
North Alexander street and who had
wandered out to the Seaboard rail
road tracks to Sardis station, was
struck and instantly killed by a spec
ial freight train near that place yes
terday morning at 11:10. She was
struck about the waist by the wooden
beam of the engine’s pilot.
The woman was walking toward Sar
dis station and the train was coming
toward the city. When she was first
seen by Engineer Barrett she was
about 100 yards distant from the train,
walking on the south side of the track.
He pulled the whistle and watcher her
cross over to the other side of the
track, but clear of it by a good mar
gin. She, however, strayed close to the
track again and the engineer at once
applied the brakes, bringing the train
to a stop within half its length, but
not before she was struck by the
beam on the engine’s pilot.
The body was brought on to Char
lotte to the undertaking establish
ment of J. M. Har;:y & Co., and Coro
ner Z. A. Hovis summoned a jury and
held an inquest. It was thought then
that she was a white woman. Coroner
Hovis gave his opinion that the body
was that of a mulatto woman and in
quiry substantiated the coronei' s opin
ion.
The body was then turned over to
Coles & Smith, the colored undertak
ers, for burial. The old woman had
wandered away from the home of a
colored relative, on Alexander street,
Saturday morning and search had been
made for her in vain. She was said
to be 82 years of age.
The coroner’s jury was composed of
Messrs. G. H. McGinn, William John
ston, R. E. Cochrane, W. E. Long, W.
M. Wallace and J. O. Thomas Their
verdict was that tlie woman came to
her death as a result of her own negli
gence. •

This Special Prize Has no
^Connection With the Final
Result oj the Contest But is
For This Week's Woik Only.
After today there is exactly one
month until the close of >Tlie News’
Pony Contest. One month more and it
will all be history and some girl or
boy will be the new owner of the
beautiful Shetland Pony and Outfit
and the Two Bicycles offered by The
News as prizes.
In one month many things can hap
pen. Those who are now aliead in the
contest may be ever so much more
ahead. Some one who is now ^n • an
obscure place in the list may have
taken the lead with a walk away. You
can never tell just what the end will
bring forth.
.There is one thing certain, however,
and that is that some one will win
the Pony and Other Prizes and that
that some one is going to have to
work hard every day from now on
until the close of the Contest. Peo
ple are already asking, “Who do you
think will witi?” That is a question
that many would like to know the ans
wer to, but is one of those things that
will remain a mystery unui the 20th
of July.
The only way to be certain of your
standing is to work each day for sub
scriptions. Don’t leave a single stone
unturned in the hunt. Go after every
one you know. And keep-everlastingi
ly at^ it. -
