Concord Ulan Robbed in Salisbury. - - - Tuesday's Salisbury' World tells of a Concord man (who is he?) being robbed in Salisbury, or at least of pne who says In was robbed, "as follows: : A white man hailing from Concord, but whose jiame could not be learned, , applied to Officers Huff and Murphy yesterday,; afternoon for the arrest of two negroes who, : he claimed , robbed him last Thursday ; night His f tale is that the darkies were showing him the way to the depot when they took him on the cotton platform. One held him and the other - relieved himj of a gold watchj a purse and $48 in cash. : He said nothing about , it at the time1 to anyone but yesterday he recognized one of the darkies at the depot and came for the officers. But when they returned the negro had skipped, lie has recovered his watch and purse, which! were found in the waiting room at the depot, but his cash is still with the missing. By some the man's tale is . regarded as rather "fishy" but we give it for what it i3 worth. " - ! j The man referred to above is Mr. M. L. Shernll, the writing school teacher. We saw Mr. Sherrill this morning, and he gave the following account of the affair: : . - . jv : . - On Wednesday evening of last week he came down from Statesville to Salis bury on his way- to . Concord. Whde waiting at the depot for- the Concord train, he asked some negroeis, he says standing by where he could! get a cup of coffee. ; One of them preposed to get him a cup, to which Mr. Sherrill agreed,' Mr. Sherrill drank the coffee when ' brought,- and that is all he remembered until the next morning when'he awoke land found himself in Concord. He says, he suppose some one put him on the train. The coffee, he j Bays, was drugged. When he came to his senses he found his watch, 'spectacles and $47 in cash missing. He' went back to Salisbury last Mon day to look after his missing : property. He recovered his watch $,nd empty purse. He got sight of ne of the negroes on the street, and had him ar rested and put in jail. The negro stoutly dehies having any connection with the case. Mr. Sherrill is still minus his spectacles and cash. . ' Later : Word was received here about an hour ago that the negro has been liberated, he having produced sat isfactory evidence that-he lis not the proper' party. Married "Under Difficulties. ' Tuesday Mr. Ira B. Treiler and Miss Fannie S. Bostian, ' of Howan county, -came down to Concord to get married. They had tried to get thetoselves tied together in Salisbury, but hjad failed, it is said, on account of objections on the part of Trexler's mother ' that he was not of sufficient mental soundness. Register Weddington would not issue the license until some one waspresent to testify as to Trexler's age. jThe bride's father and sister was present consenting to the union, 0 that there was no trou ble on, that sjjile. Mr. Trexlr hunted up everybody in towji who knew him, and for some time failed to jsecure any one. Finally, however, hejaiighted on Mr. John L. Miller at Cjannonville, whose testimony satisfied Mr. Wedding ton, and tbfe license was duly issued. The next' thing was ! to ; get a magis trate. Mr. C. A. Pitts was secured, but such a curious crowd had collected that Esq. Pitts would not perform -the cere mony at first. Finally, however, the knot was tied by himJ and the couple, after the groonn had deposited & half dollar in the magistrate's hand, " went on their way rejoicing, Accident at the lUeachery. Will Moore, a young married man, while cleaning some oil from the steam cans or the dryer at the Dieachery, about 5 o'clock Monday evening, got his right hand caught between a wooden roller and a cog wheel, mangling the hand so badly . that the three middle ringers may possibly have to be ampu tated. The flesh wa3 torn from the back of the hand from the wrist joint to the knuckles leaving sqir.e of the bones exposed. It was several minutes before the man could be extricated from the machine. Quite a number of peo ple gathered at the bleachery to see the wounded man, smonsr them ;Mr. frank Edwards, wrho had been unwell for sev eral days. The sight of the lacerated hand made him so sick that several hata had to be kept in motion to save him from swooning awavl After a little while he was able to go home: Drs.

Tuesday's Charlotte Observer contains the following fish story, the scene of wrhich is laid in Cabarrus: , Duke Vanderberg, of Cabarrus coun ty, is a religious man in his way. He kept last Ascension Day, eo he says, a day not generally observed by Cabarrus county farmers. He went fismng on that day ! instead of going to work as usual. His religious zeal was rewarded by the capture of an ; immense carp. about the biggest carp ever 'caught ,in the Rocky river. By means of an old scoop nej: be got the fish onto the bank, when tiiis extraordinary thing hap pened, Recording to Duke, and any man who keeps Ascension Day will tell the truth : When Duke stooped over and took the fish by the i gills he says: "hit-hit-bit r-r-riz on hit's tail-end an' th-th-th-throwed me on m-m-my b-b-backian' got away. An' hit m-m- m-made mesod-d-d -m m-m-m-mad that I jrj-jest went b-back home and w-w-worked 1-1-like h-h-h-h 1 all day." The Hos i'ens Again. We leatn that some of our people say that the continued publications in the town papers about, the hog pens will 'hurt the town," and they think it ought to j be stopped. We respectfully submit that tbe best way to stop it is to clean out the hogr pens. Talking about the filthy! condition of the town will not hurt it half as much as an epidemic of typhoid fever would. It is . a news- paper s ciuty tq cry out against tne stinking hog pens as long as there is pne in town, and we, for one, propose to do it jN6 one is more "jealous of the town's every interest than we, an'd that is the very reason we are now entering our protest against hog pens. 1- Rev.

I. persisted in this treatment, until the sore was en tirely healed, j Since' then, I use Ayer's Sarsaparilla occasionally a3 a twid a.nd hlood-purifier, and, In died, it seems, as tfcdugh 1 could not keep house witbaut it."
