It ii about time tor th8 Demo
crats to get a little doser together
if they expect to do anything in tho
coming election.
Tho names of both Jcdgo Walter
Clark and ex-Judge Jamea C. Mac
Rao are mentioned in connection
with the nomination for Governor.
Well informed Democrats now
know that tho Republicans and tho
Populists understand each other;
in other words, have agreed to di
vide tho local offices.
As illustrated in the case ot Ken
tucky, nothing is to he gained by
kicking out one of the old parties
and putting another in. The man
who "swears oil" whiskey Bnd then
takes to brandy tor the purpose of
reform is not wise.
While theso btorics about the
drawing of tho color lino are cur
rent it wilt surprise persons to bo
V reminded that the O. A. R. colony
in ueorgia, winch soon expects to
have 50,000 people, has a clause in
its agreement excluding the negro.
An organization of ex-slaves has
been effected at Topeka, Kansas,
tor the purpose of making demand
on Congress for pensions. It is
tho purpose to make it of national
. t&opc. The agod, tho lame and the
Jnxs happy in the belief that
all they will have to do is to write
to Congress to get national relief for
their dint raw.
11. G. Dun & Co. say in their

for tho first week of February were

been 327 in ibTjaiUsd States
agaitBtO'iast year, and G7 in
anada against 51 last year. The
weather 6till hinders business and
continued closeness of money, and
prolonged inaction ot Congress, but
confidence is increasing.
There is quite strong, and, it
may be said, a growing sentiment
in favor of Julian S. Carr as the
Democratic nominee for Governor.
His views as to a straight ticket are
quite generally approved. There
are thousands of Democrats who
resent concessions heretofore made
and who say they prefer infinitely
a straight ticket even if it bo de
feated. But they think that with
such a ticket they can sweep the
State.
Tho conterence of mutual ac
cident insurance companies of the
lTnited States to discuss the bicycle
rider as an accident risk has fiuiuhed
its deliberations. The companies
have unanimously resolved that
bicycling is a hazardous occupation,
which they cannot insure against at
the present rates of premium, and
that in future the cyclists will pay
double for his insurance, or receive
less indemnity, or give up cycling
so far as his accident insurance is
concerned.
I'ostal cards have been sent out
to the banks throughout the country
telling them that the couutrv is
I flooded with counterfeit $2 and $5
bills. Tho bogus f 5 is the same
that has been passing for years, and
the latest bills show that the plate
from which they were mado has

MIHERMAH EXECUTED.
THE WIFE MURDERER MAKES A CONFESSION-FIFTEEN
HUNDRED
PEOPLE PRESENT.
Hilliville Timet.
To-day, Feb. 14th, on a gallows
erected in the rear of the old coun
ty jail, John S. Weatherman was
launched into eternity for murder
ing bis wife on the lflth day of No
vember, 1891.
Dnring his last hours on earth,
tho doomed man wrote a confession
of his crime, which, taken with the
history of the same, will excite some
feeling of sympathy for the poor
wretch. If the men would speak
whose names wo have left out of
the confession, who knows but the
burden on that weak brain as more
thau ho cou M beat !
John S. Weatherman, the son of
M. C. Weatherman, was bom near
Longtown, Yadkin county, N. C,
in 1S50, and at tho age of 18, mar
ried Malinda Rorer, of the samo
county Hnd State. His mother,
now quite old, is living at Long
town, N. C. Weatherman had seven
children, five of whom are still liv
ing. It was repotted that he killed
one of his children, which, upon in
vestigation, has proved to be f ilsc.
The hrst child, Arthur, died near
Walton Furnace, Wytho county,
and wtis attended in his last illnesa
by Dr. Richard Sandeis. Rogers,
the one cla ined to have been mur
dered, died at Ivan'ioc, Wythe conn
ty, Sept. 187, with flux, and was
4i tended in his last 6ickness by Dr.
Wm. Pierce.
On Nov. 19th,-1891. John Weath
erman and his wife, Malitida, with
their five children, were living at
Chestnut Yards, a small railroad
town in this county. Weatherman
was emploped at railroad work near
by, came home ' k, and his bottle
of liquor, which iie had not yet
emptied, he hid in tho grass near
tho house, lie went into tho house,
afked his wife for hie pistol, saying
"lie wanted to go and shoot a man
who had murdered an engineer on
the road by the name of l'lakey.
His wife would not get him his pis
tol, so ho threatened her with an old
bowiekrii'e, which was kept up
stairs. Si s got the knife lirst and
hid it. Vi,Ht'lerlnan then went to
the wt)rjj pile, picked up his sxe,
a,udTcanio on back to the house,
sharpening it with a small stone.
His wife had just come down from
up stairs where she had been hiding
the bowie knife. Some of the
smaller children were in the room.
His wife was standing by the ta
ble; Weatherman walked up be
hind her, and buried the blade ol
the axe in her brain. Weatherman
then walked out to tho depot, which
was only a few hundred yards away,
and told the people he had killed
his wife and wan'ed to give him
self up.
Ho 6aid "he had no money and
couldn't get away, and that he whs
afraid ot being lynched."
Weutherman was indicted Dec.
2Ur, 1S91, and elected to be tried
in the Circuit Court, and was tried
at the April term, 192. The court
assigned him Mr. W. 1). Tompkins,
one of the ablest attorneys at the
Ilillsville bar, for his defense. He
entered the plea of insanity and de
fended him with zeal and ability,
but the jury returned a verdict of
murder in tho first degree. Coun
sel obtained a writ of error and ar
gued tho case lief ore the Supreme
Court of Appeulo in June, 1893,
but the court affirmed the judg
ment of the Circuit Court. A re
hearing was granted September,
1894, and was again argued before
the Court of Appeals in June, 1895,
tho court a second time aflirming
the judgment of, the Circuit Court.
At the November term of the
Circuit Court, 1895, Weatherman
was resentenced to be Lung on the
31st day ot January, 1890. A pe
tition was then circulated, a large
number ot signers obtained and
sent to Governor O'Ferrall asking
him to commute his death sentence
to lile imprisonment, but the Gov
ernor refined to interfere. Coun
sel then applied to the County
Court for a wi it of habeas corpus,
on the ground that since his irial
Weatherman had become insane,
but tho court refused the writ. Ap
plication was then made to the Cir
cuit Court, then to Court of Ap
peals, both courts refusing the writ.
The doomed man again appealed
to his counsel, who mad') a final
and succeosful tflort and Governor
O'Ferrall ordered a comiuission-of
lunacy to examine Weatherman.
The Governor granted a stay of
execution till Feb. 14, and sent I)rs.
Preston, J 'lack ford and Moiieurc,
from the three State -liiririe Asy
lums, who, after making an examt
nation, repotted that it "was feign
ed insanity,' then the Governor
telegraphed to the Sheriff that the
execution should proceed on the
1 -1 tl. Weatherman, knowing there
was no csnLly hopes for him, at
the last hour gave out the following:
II IS CONFK'M-ION.
'I am condemned to dm and
know that 1 have not had justice.
I have never had a fair trial. I da
teel like and believe that if my
counsel, W. D. Tompkii.s, had had
any showing at the i-e he could
have changed it from what it is. I
do think it is wrng to hang me. I
cannot sea anythir.g I hav done to
1)0 Lung for. It wan a lot of racals
that took my wife from me. She
would keep company with them in
spite of me ; they ruined my daugh
ter ; they destroyed my rnind. 1
loved my wife letter than anything
I ever saw on earth. She did not
hke me, if she hnd, she .would not
Lave doin Jio she did. Shu told me
she would keep cimptny with them
when she p!ea-ed. Hie sent mo to
jil so she could keep them there
t tin her. liny stayed tne'e nil
the time I wu in jul. My heart
Las been melted io my ImmmW) with
love for my wife. The vore he
treated me, the harder I loved tier
'till my brain would turn and boil
in my head. .
My tears have dried in a solid ball
of lire for my wife and cliildien.
God blessed us with several sw!Ot
children, which was the pleasure of
my life, but a lot of wolves got
among them and scattered them till
I don't know where any ot Ihem
are. I hope tho Good Shepherd
will gather us all aiwirid hie white
throne in Heaven, some of these
days where wo will be separated no
more.
I do pray that Dan , Chas.
, bam. and several
others will repent of tli? way fliey
have treated infc r.'id the Lord may
torgive them. 1 have forgiven them
and hope the Lord may, though
they are the men thai destroyed our
lives and seduced my wife and
daughter. Our blood will burn in
their hearts as long as they live.
What hss the world got ngainet me
anyway J
"Nothing but because I con
tended for my own my wife and
children; they weio mine. God
gave them tome. Then the rascals
destroyed our peace. I do know
that we have a just God and that
he will repay them for all they have
dono to me. It is more pleasure Io
me to die than it was to live the life
I havo lived tor several years. I
can't bear the thoughts of keeping
a housoof ill famo with my wife and
daughtei. It is too bad ! The way
I have been imposed upon death is
a pleasure to me. I do trust to get
to Heaven, for it seems to me I
line been in hell n long time here
on earth. I want Mr. J. to
know that I know some things he
didn't think I did, and you all that
would eonio to see my wile, will
never see any peace over it ; you
have killed us both and yon lrnoto
die soon niiil give in an account of
it before you car. see any rent. God
is a jiict God. He will give you
men your jii4 dues. We are both
gone ; you can't take her from mo
now. You say ulie is dead ; I don't
know whether she is or in it. It sho
is I hope hhe is at ret-t. I can't tell
that either, I only have hopes foi
her. The 13 chapter of Hebrews
says: uniiriago is honorable in all
its relations and the.
I leave it all to God, and am
satisfied that ho will give me justice
when 1 meet him. The world may
curse me and hang me, but they
can't hurt my soul. 1 do believe,
and lisve faith in the Lord that he
will pardon my sins, eo they can
kill my body but they can't
touch my soul. I ho ill my ene
mies may repent tied come to Christ
when they die. I forgive all this
world for the way I've been treated.
1 owe a debt to my counsel w hich
I can ne ver pay this side tho throne
of God. I do hope to meet him
there some day and I do hope the
Lord will amok reward him. He
c ntended for my rights but was
ovei powered, so I will havo to go.
Set me an a seal upon thine arm,
fur love is itrong as death and
jealousy is cruel tis the grave, the
coals therefore, coais ot tire which
has a most vehement flame. Many
waters cannot quench love, neither
can the floods drown it. If a man
would give all the substance of his
house for his love it would be utter
ly condemned.
John S. Weatiikbman."
At 11:25 Weatherman was led
down out of the jail and up on the
scaffold. His hands and feet were
then securely fastened, the black
cap was drawu' over hu face. At
11:4-1 the rope whs cut. The body
bounded down with a heavy thud,
and in 15 minu'es the physicians
pronounced life extinct.

A CURABLE DISEASE,

There aic an almost countless

chronic catarrh. The most of these
are of no use whatever, and many

harmful. A few are enceefsfnl in
a small number of case those
which are very slight and eauily
curable cases which might almost
get well by simply taking care not
to catch cold again, l.tlt of all this
vant multitude of medicines it can
not be said that there are more than
two or three which are actually
specifier, and without doubt the
ni'si reliable iri I'e-ru-na. It al
ways cnreH when it is faithfully and
coniic:entionnly used. It not only
curcfe catarrh of the head and throat,
hutcutarih of the stomach, liver,
boweln, lungs), bronchial tubes, kid

of the human body. It is indeed
a drcudlul case of catairh, wherever
located, that IV ru tin can tn.t cine,
or at h-Mst greatly help. It may be
procured at all the drug stores, and
it should be given a faithful trial by
those who have tried in vain else
