rrtber hurriedly, r We found toward tbe
dose that we bad not calculated enough
pace to get in the matter desired, and
Were forced, as the Iastforms wereeloscd,
to cut out some of the rending matter
gitiDg the' bUtoncaf kketctf vtriolr

I advertising.' We werec unable fcpjtur

pit has been two years since tfift- Indus
trial Issue was gotten out.'1 ,; Since'-then
Kinston has grown wonderfully, fulljf 25
f per cent.' and we think an Industrial Issue
: would do our town generally, and ' busk
; ness people especially, much good." y
; .. While we think the other ? Industrial
Jssue was a, very creditable one, In
tend, with the co-operation of, our busi
ness people, to make this even more cred
liable to this community and a means of
; accompJishiDg greater good, to tlie town,;
"We purpose issuing 'n paper of yfortjf
pages, five columns to the page, in some
what of a magazine form. '
It will be printed on a good quality of
j white hook paper.' We have ordered
. new drcsft of type for tbia purpose and
with new rollers and careful press work
" we hope to get the very best print. ' r
It will contain a historical sketch of
. Einston and Lenoir county, illustrations
and write-ups of Kinston's manufactur
ing industries, principal business houses,
tobacco warehouses,' churches,- court
house, city ball, street scenes and leading
public, professional and business men. ' .-
We intend to secure competent assist
ance to aid us in the write-up of our- bus
iness nod professional men. j .
To get out such an Industrial Issue as
we contemplate will necessitate going to
great expense, and we-will only be able
' to do so by the liberal patronage of our
business and professional men. v
1 This will bo an excellent medium to ad
vertiso in, and we have made the' rates
very moderate, r , ; , ,.. a
: We ask ,tbe co-operation of our people
that we may be enabled to get out
paper that will be a creditable one.
CHICAGO'S LEUTGERT NO. 2.
Becker, Who Is Accused of Murdering His
Wife and Boiling Her Body, May Escape
v Through a Faulty Indictment. ; -
' Chicago, June 29. The trial of August
Becker, the sonth-side butcher, charged
'with haviog murdered and then diemem-
bered and boiled the remains of bis wife,
In order to leave him free to marry Ida
Sutterlin, a 17-year-old girl with whom
he .become .infatuated, came to a sudden
end today, when it was found that the
indictment named Mrs. Becker as Eliza
beth when it should have been Theresa
. The court at once nol prossed the in
dictment.: The jury had been sworn in,
and the defease asked for a discharge o
the prisoner on the ground that Becker
had been placed in1 jeopardy and, there
fore, he could not be tt-ied again. .The
court denied the request, however, and a
bench warrant was issued aud Becker re
arrested.,-A new indictment will at once
be drawn up. The , discovery that the
indictment was faulty created somewhat
; of av sensation in the court rbom.
The result may be, however, that Becker
will escape punishment, as the' case is
tnbwin such shape . that the prisoner's
counsel are confident of a reversal by the
supreme court, if a verdict of guilty is re
turned.; The jury had been sworn in and
part of the evidence of ; the first witness
heard, when the attorneys for the defense
moved that the- prisoner be discharged
and the jury Instructed to return a ver
dict of not guiltyas the evidence pro
duced related to the killing jOf j Theresa
JLccer, wnue tne indictment alleged tne
U.lzz of Elizabeth Becker -. ;
i TLa grand jury this afternoon voted
another indictment against Becker. -'The
jzrers chosca to try Becker were kept to-
