IfEATTlf'S MISFORTUNE. Siruek Ej Freight Train on C. C. and I. Railroad Thursday Leg Broken and Skull Fractured The Horse Killed. Mr, John F Beatty, whose family quite recently moved to Concord and occupies Mr. Corl's house on Bell Avenue travels, selling oils. He has the misfor tune of being very bard at hear ing. On Thursday while cross ing the track of the Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta railroad, three miles below Charlotte, a freight train, which he failed to see or hear, struck him and his turnout. His horse was killed, the buggy torn to pieces and Mr. Beatty had one leg broken and his skull fractured. When taken to the hospital he could speak but could give little account of the accident. Mrs. Beatty went to his bedside today at the Pri vate Hospital. We learn that he is resting fairly well. i Runaway on West Depot Street. As Mrs. Mary E Sprinkle and two children were driving up West Depot street Wednesday afternoon, a small boy was crossing the street with a bunch of peacock feathers in his hand and just as the horse was pass ing him he gave them a shake and frightened the horse which began running. The animal came up Depot street, crossed Union at the Gibson Drug Store, and at the rear of the store turnod into the back lot, striking a telephone pole and throwing all three out. Mrs. Sprinkle fell first and one of the children fell on her, bruising her arm considerablv. The children re ceived only i few slight scratches. The buggy was bad ly damaged, one of the front wheels being smashed aud the shafts broken into splinters. It was a very narrow escape for all three. Rev. Mr. Cox Will Komain.

A Coortsblp Of Tear or More Ends Happily 1b Matrimony the Day After the Couple Meet for the First Time The Bride a Young Lady of Newberry County. A courtship which has been in existence during the cast year or so between a gentleman living in Tennessee ana a young iaay of Newberry county ended hap pily in matrimony the day after they saw each other for the first time at the place selected for their meeting- The courtship and marriage of the couple is most romantic. Four years ago a deep attachment was formed between some classmates of Miss Belle Penland, of White Pine, Tenn., and several other students at Mont Amocna Female Semin ary, Mt. Pleasant, N. C Miss Penland shortly after became the bride of Wm. Taylor Hale, of M orristown Tenn. Her former classmates did not return to the institution at the next session, and some time later her death severed all earthly ties of mutual esteem. With a feeling of re spect and the knowledge of the lAOWJf WVWIM...UU. . . u . u u - isted beween these several young ladies and nis wire, me Dusoano. informed them of her death about three months after it oc curred. Her friends duly ex pressed their condolences and a mutual and friendlv correspond ence from that time forward was maintained between the gentle man and each of the young ladies. This correspondence of a friendly character soon ripened into a deeper auacnmeui in re ward to one of the voung ladies. and .resulted in the celebration of a romantic marriage at the Lutheran parsonage at China Ornva.

Newberry Observer. Got It Done. An intelligent looking boy walked into a-grocer's shop the other day, and, reading from a paper, said: "I want six pounds of sugar at 6i cents a pound." .. V "Yes,"" said the shopman, "that will be 89 cents." "Eleven pounds of rice at six cents a pound." "Hixty six conts," commented the grocer. 1 "Four pounds of tea at 50 cents a pound. , "Two dollars." And so he continued: "Five pounds of coffee at 25 cents, seven tins of milk at ten cents, four .tins of tomatoes at nine cents, eight tins of sardines at 15 cents." The shopman made out the bill and handed it to the lad, saying: "Did your mother send the money or does she want them entered?" "My mother didn't send me at all," said the boy, seizing hold of the bill. "It's my arithmetic lesson, and I had to get it done somehow. "Selected.

Says North Carolina Is True to the Flag-, Desiring the Greatness and Glory of (he Whole Nation and Justice to All Races No State Meet Demands or the 14th Ameadmeat. . Pending the discussion in the House Friday on the Olm stead resolutions Hon. Theo. F Kluttz adorned the Old North State in these manly words. "Mr. Speaker, coming from the good State of North Caro lina, one loyal, as I believe my self to be, to the flag that hangs behind the Speaker's desk, de siring only the greatness and glory of the whole country and the prosperity of all its people, for one, I resrrfet, with tlm gen tleonn who have pr,cdilbd moon thifc side of this House, that such a firebrand should have been thrown into legislation i. this time. I regret that the opening days of the new century and the era of good feeling between all sections should be marred by this attempt to re-open sectional bitterness for purely partisan effect. "I want to add to what has been so well said by' the gentle man from New Jersey, which is enforced by reciting the cousti tutional requirement in Pennsyl vania, that there is not a single State in this Union, North or South,, East or West, Democratic or Republican, which limits the constitutional requirements for suffrage so as to conform to the language of the fourteenth amendment to the constitution of the United States, to live up to their amendment 'that no male inhabitant shall be deprived of suffrage except for participation ia rebellion or other crime.' The male inhabitant, I take it, is he who has acquired domicile in that State, and the moment that he acquires domicile and is a male he is a male inhabitant of that State and is entitled to suff rage, and vet every State in the Union, without ex cention. has requirement as to residence not only in the State, but in the city, in the county, in the precinct and ward before a voter Is allowed to cast his ballot, and every one of these requirements, as every gentle man on that side must admit, are in direct conflict with, and con travention of, the fourteenth amendment to the constitution of the United States. I find that the States of Maine, Massachu setts, Connecticut, South Caro lina, Mississippi, Luisiana, Colo rado and Wyoming all have an educational qualification in ad dition to the requirement for residence. I find that Rhode Island, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Georgia, Florida, Mississippi, Tennessee and Nevada have a provision require! ng the payment of a tax, and I find the astonishing fact that some of these States, Delaware, Maine, Massachusetts, Missouri, New Hampshire and New Jersey, have qualifications which exclue paupers men upon whom God has laid His hand and who are unable to pay a tax and are compelled to go to homes for the poor; that these men in all those States are excluded from the suffrage. I find that in Rhode Island there is a property qualification. I find that in Del aware no man can vote unless he has paid a registry fee of $1. Mr, Stewart, of New Jersey: 'Will the gentleman yield to me for a moment? I deny for New Jersey that she denies any one the right of suffrage or denies that right to any American cit izen." Mr, Kluttz: "New Jersey bas a qualification as I have stated." Mr. . McDemott: "I desire to correct my colleague from New Jersey. New Jersey does deny the right of any pauper to vote." (Applause on the Democratic side.) Mr. Stewart, of New Jersoy "I deny the proposition and ask the gentleman to produce the proff." Mr. Kluttz: "I decline to yield to the gentleman to make a speech in my time, but I shall insert in my remarks the provis ions of the constitution of New Jersey, kindly handed me by the gentleman from that State, Mr. McDemott. It is as follows: Article 2, section 1 : 'And no pauper, idiot or insane person shall enjoy the right of an elect or.' The gentleman (Mr. Stew art) is, I trust, answered. "Now, sir, I come from the State of North Carolina, where wc are trying in goad faith, in tho fear of God and with tfc-j do- sire to do just ioo to all our poo- pi acd io work out justice to all r ;. s. I Cn i that in Nortn Car olina, in the last election, where we have nine congressional dis tricts, there was an average vote of 82,555 voters in each district, showing that there, was no sup pression of the vote. I find from the report of the Auditor of that State, recently made, that the total revenues of North Carolina for 1899 from all sources were $3,084,460.52, and of this sum $1, 555,000, or more than one- half of it was given to the cause of education and that money was given, pro rata with the whites, to the education of the colored race at our doors, although they contribute but about 10 per cent, of the taxes. (Applause.) I ask the majority to join us in frown ing upon all such legislation as is proposed in this resolution." Count yonZeppelen's Invention Proves to Be a Remarkable Ono Count von Zeppelen gave his airship another trial the other afternoon at Friedrichshafen and achieved a notable success. After rising the airship remained poised at a height of 600 meters for three-quarters of an hour. It then made a series of tacks and performed sundry turning maneuvers, after which it was steered against the wind. It finally headed toward Immen stadt, where the inventor landed after a trip that lasted about an hour. The king and queen of Wur tomburg witnessed the trial from the deck of a steamer. The airship carried four per sons besides Count Zeppolen. When it rose the wind was from the northeast, blowing at a ve locity of Si yards per second. When the airship had attained a height of 400 yards it described a circle, aud then drove with the wind in a generally circular di rection for about six miles. It then again described a circle, after which it made headway against the wind, which was then blowing with increased velocity. Eventually the airship descended with great ease and steadiness into the lake and was towed to a shed. The experiment was success ful. Its stability, equilibrium and steering powers were excel lent. It is generally agreed that considerable progress has been made since its first ascent. Greensboro Telegram. The Salisbury Truth-Index of the 3rd says: "Victor Shankle, a lGyoar-old negro boy, who lived about two miles below Nor wood, wis accidentally killed Tuesday night; we are informed by parties who came up on the Yadkin train last night. Shan kle ran in between two dogs that were fighting intending to sepa rate them, when another colored boy standing near by shot at the dogs. Instead of bitting them, however, Shankle . became the victim and was killed almost in stantly. The shooting was proved to be purely accidental and the boy who did the shoot ing was released. Revenge is a kind of wild jus tice which the more man's na ture runs to the more ought law to weed it out. Francis Bacon. Wireless Telephoning. Mr. C E Egan, the Manager of the Durham Telephone Com pany, has pertected and fitted up, on the third floor of the building, a system of wireless telephoning that works like a charm It is impossible to tell just how it works, for few peo pie know the theory or can ex plain it. On a table at either end of the building are the in struments and the receiver. By olectrical appliances sheets of tin, about two feet square, are placed opposite each other, on the wall, at either end; a distance of a hundred and fifty feet. This tin is charged with the instru uiwnU ri.v, otlf Thfl snund is thrown i , in one of these an p'aiMS and it, is received by the o her ami heard through tho i e tcver, wiacii is used, more i no wire from one plate to the other, and it is claimed that th electricity generated by the in struments at either end works upon the electricity in air waves, and transmits the sound from one given point to another. It is a wonderful piece of mechan ism, and shows that Mr. Egan io an expert in electrical matters It works well, and the writer heard songs from a phonograph that were transmitted over thi. wiroless system that were pro duced with wonderful etlect. lr. Egan expects, iu the near futuro, to make a more practical test of his invention, by estab lishing one station in Durham and one at Chapol Hill, and try that ditance. This test will be looked forward to with great in terest, and we hope it will prove satisfactory. Mr. Egan has been working ou the scheme for a' number of years. As far back as 1883 he made experiments along this line, on the Pennsylvania rail road, and was so much encour aged that in 188G he made ap plication for letters patent upon his idea. We hope he will make a good thing out of it, for it is certainly a wonderful, thing, which cannot be explained in words. Durham Sun. The Rebuilding of (jalveston. "Shipping knows absoluely no sentiment," observed Mr. Uliar les T Alexander, a vigorous, stal wart representative of Texas manhood, at the Metropolitan "My home is in Waco, but I was in Galveston the other day, and the city is going up again like magic. Thousands of houses are being built, but they are not so large or pretentious as their predecessors. The value of ex ports from Galveston during No vember last was i),uuu,uuu, which is $1,000,000 more than the value of exports from Gal veston during November of 1899. Galveston is the ocean outlet for the vast trade of Kansas, Indian Territory and Texas. Congress has long recognized this, and ap propriated generously for th.' harbor; "The agricultural products of Texas last year" continued Mr. Alexander, who is a native of North Carolina, and received his education in New York, "yield ed about $300,000,000. Her peo ple were never iu better condi tion. Immigration into the Stat, which has fallou off somewhat during the last four or five years, is now starting again.

The time is just here for me to settle tho school taxes for the year 1900 and in order to do this I will have to get money not by tho hundreds but by the thous ands for the next few weeks. It seems that people have learned that the law limits the sheriff till tho first of May to sell real estate for taxes, and so a great many put off paying until just before time to advertise and then they come in. Now suppose every tax-payer in the county would do that, please tell me where the money would come from to bear the expenses of tho county up to that time, besides paying the appropriations for public schools, which amounts this 3'oar to about $12,000. Now I don't want to sell property for any one, but those payments must bo met and this is my last call, and I g've spoohl notice to ovcyo'iij who owe-j mo a tax thai unless you come in at oiM:eI will certainly have to resort to some other means to get it.
