More Kn Ute Viewed Disinterred Remains of Suicide and Poaititivcly Iden tify Body. Daritaewa Samel CkarlMie otoiw, mk Ia order to set at ree numerous persistent stories to the effect that Hubert Keith Dargan, who commit ted suicide here on July 11th but, shortly after the duawtroua failure of several large corporations of which he was manager, the grave waa opened today aud the reinaius identified by fifty or more well known citizens who knew him in life. Dargan had 40,000 insur ance on his life, f-.'.VHK) the Fi delity Mntual Insurance t'ouipany of Philadelphia and 115,000 in the Equitable. The latter company ac cepted the proofs of death submit ted and, some mouths ago. paid the amount due, but the l'liiladel phia company, by reaxon of the current rumors that Dargan wan not dead, pe runted in the demand that the hotly be disinterred ana tuaite an effort some weeks ago to secure an order from Judge K. ('. Wstts to have this done. The judi.'e de clined to issue the order, but stated that, if the company were sued, it could renew its request without prejudice from his decision. ' On August 5th Mrs. It. K. Dar gan submitted proofs of death aud, in reply, the company wrote her, in part, as follows: "The proofs of death as submitted are not satisfiic-, tory and, nnder all circumMtunces of the cane, we must ask you lo submit further proof of death by allowing the grave to be opened and the body to lie iusiiectea by six residents of Darlington who were personally acnninted with Mr. Dargan in bis life time. In explanation of our requeHt we would say that your affidavit, aa claimant, shows that you have no personal knowledge whatever of the death, not having seen the body at or aft er death; that the undertaker had no part in the preparation of the body for burial; that the physician, whoe affidavit Is furnished, untile only a superficial examiuatiou; that the friend wbnee utlidavlt Is rur nished is a barber who sliaved Sir. Dargan about three hours after his alleged death, and that there is no actual protf whatever that he took the carbolic acid, which be is sup posed to have taken with inteut to commit suicide." The character of the business transacted by Mr. Dargan, by which his friends and relatives lost so many thousands of dollars, coupled with the circum stances attending the alleged death aud burial the following day, have led a number of people In South Carolina to suspect or believe that his death did not actually occur, but that his friends and family have again been imposed upon aud that be is now living in some other locality. Articles to this effect have appeared in several of the South Carolina papers. L tuler date of January nth, the Insurance conipauy received the following letter from K. Keith Dar gan, father of the dead tmin : "1 am iuformed your company is refusing to pay the insurance on the life of my son, Robert Keith Dargan, on account of dislielief in the fact of his death, and that nothing short of disinterment will satisfy you of that fact. The scandalous rumors, on which your position seems to lie founded, have been given Increased cutrenry by your action. As you are aware, I have no personal in terest in the insurance, but, if I h td, no pecuniary iuterest and no suffering which human doubt, or distrust, or even condemnat on, ex uld inflict on me, would induce me to submit to the decration of Ibis grave, but, because these charges inflict mental suffering ou others who are dear to me as rela tives and as friends, who have stood by me ia my troubles, I submit myself to even this distress aud, at my instance, my daugliter-iu-lttw submits to it also. I, therefore, consent that the body be exhnined aod consent and request that you select, by the 15th lust, three phy sicians of the town of Darlington, who knew my son in bis life tune, to be present on such day as they may hereafter agree upon, for such examination by them as they, rep resenting you, may demand. 1 truet I may ask that you will not insist upon the additional distress and humiliation of further uoto riety." In reply to this request the com pany designated Dr. O. 11 Kd wanls, Dr. A. T. Baird, Kdward C Dennis, P. P. Chambers and F. H. Calkins, all residents of Dar lington, save the latter, who is an official of the company from J'lnla delphia, and they saw the body ex hunied this morning aud expressed satisfaction, and Attorney Calkins stated that payment would liume- diatelv be made. The ooflln was so securely laid in cement that about three hours work with picks and crow bars was reaaired to get it oat. It was then taken inside an enclosure around a cemetery lot, about which some cot ton nagging had been hung as a shield from tne street, me nu en tirely removed and representatives named by the insurance company allowed to view the remains. This examination concluded, the fifty or more citizens, including newspaper men, who had been admitted to the cemetery to witness the disinter ment, were invited to inspect the remains, which were in a bail state as a result of being in the ground for more than six months. There was nothing about the face Alone; The Way. Tt ludsrd nine, the routourof thesknll, color of hair aud sixe of body furnished ready means of identification to those who had known Khert Keith Dargan. As those who looked at the body filed out of the gate their names were taken and each was asked his opinion. The replies ouly varied iu the degrees of positive ness with which it wan declared that the remaius were those of Dar gaa. In connection with the proofs of death submitted to the insurance company, it was stated by W. F. Dargan, Ksq., a cousin of the dead man's father, that be had been iu formed that Insurance ( oiumission er Young hod passed ou the affida vits and threatened the Fidelity Mutual with a revocation of their charter iu North Carolina if the) persisted in resisting payment ol the policy of K. K. Durgau. Thi was denied by Mr. Culkius, the company's representative. Friends of the family assured me that the Darguus had beeu vert unjustly treated in the matter, and they censure the insurance com pany for giving color, as the) claim, to the IiumOos rumors thai Darguu did not take his life. The) say the failure of the company to pay, however, had nothing to di with the decision trotieu the grave. This was done to put an end to tin stories iu circulation. There are, on the other hand, citizens win think the body should have beei exhumed as nxm as the stories wen started. The latter they regard at only natural outcomes of the inci dents connected with the suicide. l'egrain Dargan, brother of tin man whose grave was opeued to day, who is said to have admitted that he secured the pobon for ho brother, and remained with him until he died, has been presented by the grand jury for the act ami the rase is exscted to come up ii March if Dargau appears, lie b suid to lie out of the 81 ate now. Tho suicide occurred a few Atiy after the disastrous failure of t lit oil companies managed by Dargau. The total liabilities are said to 1m something like 100,000, with the proMtiect of creditors getting alsmt. '.'5 per cent, when the business i finally settled. Today's event doubtless closi one of the most interesting cose on record in Hotith Carolina. The uniiiuo circumstances involved at tracted attet.tion from various parts of the country and the deatl of Dargan would, in all probabil ity, have been always regarded at- a mystery had the family iiersisted in the determination not to allow the grave to be oened. When thi matter was undertaken, however. every facility was offered forathor otigh examination of the remains.

"I did not know you had been in the hospi tal." "Oh, yes, I was there for eight weeks, aud my nurse was one of the dearest women I ever knew. I thought she would appreciate a nice home-made rake for herself and hex friends when they have their aueruoon teas. "I'm sure they will," I said, "and also your kiudneas in making one." "What false ideas there are now adays among the young people," she continued. "I have just been thiuking of tbem since a young lady next door coming in on an er rand while I was makuigtbis cake, made some strange remarks. 'Why didu't you go to the Woman's ex change and buy a cake!' she said. Then I replied, t)h, a home-made ake, if a good one, is even better, .tnd doe not cost half as much.'

A NOTORIOUS CRIMINAL. nan Who Robbed Andrew Carne gie's Butler Sentenced to the Roads for Ten Years. Wadnburu MeMn.r ana I a I. II A very interesting rase was dis poned of at Korkingham last week, in which Flowers Cameron and aain Lindsey, hot a colored, were tried for highway robbery. The prosecuting witness io the case is the butler of Andrew Carnegie, the multi millionaire philanthropist, Joaeph Monroe by name. It seems that about two months ago Mr. Carnegie, who was then iu r lorida, sent Monroe ou ahead of him to ew iork. Soon after pass ing Columbia, 8. C, Monroe, who is a bright mulatto aud who was dressed iu the height of fashion. Ii nd iug that he would have to spend the night in Hamlet, asked the con ductor if there was a restiectable boarding house in that town for colored people, Cameron aud Lind sey, who were on the train and who beard the question asked by Mouroe, hasteued to inform hiui that they were from Hamlet and would take pleasure in showing him to a splendid boarding house. Wheu the train reached Hamlet Cameron disapeared and Lindsey took Mouroe iu charge aud led him to a point some distance from the inhabited portion of the town. When a very secluded spot was reached, and Monroe had com menced to complain at the distant to the boarding house, Cameron suddeuly reappeared and sticking a big pistol iu Monroe s face com manded him to throw up his hands. Monroe at first protested at the treatment he was receiving, but soon seeing that the two negroes meant business, hastened to comply with their demand, after which he was relieved of ! in money, two gold watches and suit case contain ing three or four suits or clothes. Cameron aud Lindsey were ar rested shortly after the robbery aud, as stated aliove, were tried aud convicted at Kockiughain lost week and sentenced to terms of 10 and 7 years, respectively, ou the roads of Wadesboro township. Saturday olticers representing the chain gang of this township went to Rockingham to bring tamerou aud Lindsey and a number of other couvicts to Wadesboro. The con victs were all tied together, but Lindsey, while waiting lor the train, managed to slip the ro)e over his hands, which enabled him to make his escape as they were getting on the train. The remainder of the prisoners were brought on to Wades boro aud safely landed at the chain gang stockade, ou the White Store road. Cameron aud Lindsey are both notorious criminals. The former recently escaped from the State prison, where he was serving a term for highway robbery, since which time many crimes have been committed by the two men.

Church-Qoers Vainly Try to Rescue Victim from Infuriated Stallion. Srw York ltu-li, will. Shut in a box stall with an in furiated stallion, Michael Ilauan made a fruitless tight for his life last uight, while au excited crowd battered at the barred doors of the stable iu response to bis frantic cries for help. Hefore the mad horse had been conquered Hanau was trampled to death and Daniel Marshall, owuer of the stable and Hanau's employer, was seriously injured. The stable is at No. 1.10 South Eighth street, Williamsburg. Sev eral hundred persons were ou their way to church wheu there came cries for help from the Marshall stable. The U-atiug ol steel shod hoofs was hoard. A crowd quickly gathered iu front of the stable. Through a window they could see the horse In utiug dowu his victim. llanan s ci tea grew weaker as be made a lcseiate fight to escape from I lie M.tll. Half a hundred meu battered vainly at the stable doors u their efforts to reach hi in. A heavy tinilicr from a truck was used as a ram, but even this failed to break the heavy oak doors. The noise was heard at the Clymer street police st-dion aud Policemen rergusoii and ilson tried iu vaiu to break the locks on the doors. Marshall, the owner, ran up and unlocked the doors aud, followed by the policemen aud many volun teers from among the church-goers, grablied a pitchfork aud weut to Hanau s rescue. The moment Marshall entered the stall the mad stallion left his first victim and plunged at him. Marshall fought desperately with his shurp-tiiied weapon, but even that was not suftirient to save him from the steel shod hoofs. Once he was struck a glancing blow ou the head that rut oiK-n the scalp, and another broke his left arm. Then the two policemen went at the horse with their clulw, and at lost one of them knocked him down with a well directed blow, llanan was dead.

The Italeigb Progressive Farmer sounds a note of warning to the far mers of the Bouth about what it calls the stock food swindle. It says that one of the most outrag eous frauds now being perpetrated upon the American farmer is that of prepared Block foods common meal, bran, etc., with a little cheap sulphur, salt, Epsom salts, pepper, saltpeter, etc., added to change the taste, and the mixture (hardly more valuable than ordinary ship stuff) put up iu darning packages, advertised iu big illustrated ads iu farm papers, and sold to gullible farmers at from fi!50 to .',500 a ton. The Progressive Farmer says further, that some time ago, the chief Southern contributor of one of the farm pajiers most largely cir culated iu North Carolina aud ad joining Htates, wrote au exposure of the whole miserable fraud and sent it to his paper. The reply came back : "The lilank Stock Food Company pays us f'1,000 a year for advertising, aud we would lose it if we were to print your letter. Please dou't insist," It is quite proper that while the patent medi cine nostrums are getting a drub bing, the stock food humbugs should be exposed, aud thia the Progressive rariuer proposes to do. If the frauds are of the nature com plained of, we hope the exposure will be of a nature as to protect the farmers against them.
