The Jonesboro Leader. PxMUhsA every Wedntzday at JONESBORO, MOORE Co., X. C. Attempt at Murder. A dastardly assault and attempt to murder was made last Fridav evening i at Hamlet, on Capt. T. F. Kirkland, conductor of the passenger train on j j tbe Seaboard Air-Line that arrived at jthat place from Raleigh at 7:20 that EnterM at tb Port Office at Jonesboro, N. C, . . . T . 1 There had been some misunder R. M.

" or had invited him to take the coach called for by his ticket. When the tiain stopped at Hamlet, tho conduct or stepped out on the platform at the station, when he was immediately ap proached by Martin Meeks who after applying to him a most offensive epi thet, and before he could be stopped, drew a pistol and shot Capt. Kirkland twice, inflicting severe wounds in his left hip near the groin, and three inch es apart. Meeks then held the crowd back with his pistol until he gained the shelter of a large swamp into which he made his escape. Neither the con ductor nor any of the bystanders were armed, but tho conductor showed great courage and closed upon the drunken miscreant even after he had been so badly wounded. Capt. Kirkland was removed to Ral eigh for treatment. While his wounds are severe, it is thought he will soon recover. Wilmington Star. Col.

There is a bit of incongru ity hero that isn't altogether compli mentary to somebody V idea of the fit ness of things. We I sometimes think that the newspa per reporter has a little more to con tend with than almost any other man iu business,. Take the commercial drummer, for instance. He goes into a town to sell goods. If he finds his man out of sorts all he has to do is to move on to another town and try another, or ho can wait for his custom er to get m the proper mood. If the deal between two speculators is of any moment tho man who is engineering the deal can manoeuvre it according to circumstances. He may wait until he gets his man down "to a dinner where the wine is flowing freely. But the newspaper reporter must tackle his man wherever he can find him. The man may have had some terrible misfortane, troulle, or a death in his family, or he may have just had an allfired poor dinner. But that is none of the reporter's business. He goes at the man with questions. He must tackle him where he finds him. If the man has had a smooth day of itall right and well. But if ho has not the reporter must get at him some ALT r-OfSLioad Jss J uwveu uy u.M.veri Dalrymple, Jonesboro.
