8 HICSGHT FSESS: fPTZMBUE 12, 1353. GOSH! LOOK AT THE NEWS! The Statesville Landmark of 10th Gets all This in Under the Head, "Trouble In David ' ton Townliip. The new brandy season is product ive of wars and bloodshed. At Doo lie, in Davidson township, last Tues day, there was a fight between Mr. A. A. McKay and five negroes. Daring the fight one of the negroes, Lee Da vidson, was struck in the head and severely wounded- McKay had the negroes arrested and they were tried Saturday before Justices Cornelius, Bradley, Black and Alexander. Mr. H. P. Grier, of States ville, appeared f of them. Two of them, Lee David son and Cattr Davidson, were held to court in the sum of $200 each. They gave bond. The negroes then had McKay ar rested and the trial took place before Justice Xewis in Statesville yesterday. Mr. F. 21. Wilson was also included in the warrant with McKay. Messrs. McLaughlin and Grier appeared for the State and Messrs. Long and Arm field for the defendants. Wilson was discharged. McKay was held to court in the sum of $200 and two ne groes, Geo. and Seymour Byers, in gums of $50 each. All gave bond. Growing out of this trouble is a charge of selling whiskey to minors and on Sunday, made against F. M. Wilson and others. This will come up for a hearing before Justice Lewis Monday. CATERP1LLAR5 HATCHING. Discovery Hade in the Woods of Massachu setts. Maldkn, Mass., September 6. Messrs. H. A. Ballou and C. H. Rowe, agent of the State Board of Agricul ture, made a startling discovery today w hile at work in the woods of Woburn. They found eggs of the gypsy moth in process of hatching and the young caterpillars crawling from them. The egg were laid only a few weeks ago and their hatching before the end of the reason verifies the worst fears of entomologists, who have predicted that the gypsy moth might sometime have two broods in one season. If the present warm weather continues through September and there are no early frosts, there seems to be nothing to prevent a second crop of gypsy moths. This means that where the moths are t.hiek, the trees again may be ravaged and that there may be an additional supply of eggs for the gypsy moth hunters to destroy. A 5peculation Case. Some of the lawyers state that in a ruling made by Judge Bryan - in the speculation land case at Morganton just concluded, the Judge has laid himself clearly open for reversal on er ror in ruling. The ruling alluded to is .-about as follows: The case had dosed last Saturday while there was a defect existing in the probate and registration and recording of one of the deeds which is of vital value in the case. The Court, however, grant ed time and held the case Taefore th jury in recess to enable the deed to be recorded. Some of the lawyers say this will be error. That, instead of on the vital point of non-recording of deed, the case should have gone on and if this proved adverse in the case it could on motion been determined whether it was sufficient ground for a new trial, etc. You lawyers know how that is. The Lively Lenoir Topic. The Topic, of Lenoir, makes the an nouncement this week that Mr. W. W. Scott, Jr., has sold his interest in the paper to Mr. John S. Deal, who has associated with him Mr. K. L. Downs, and also the old standby, Mr. R. H. Harstin, as associate editor. Mr. Scott publishes a somewhat pathetic "good- by.'! We wish him success and pros perity. He is at present in one of the Departments in Washington. We ex tend to Messrs. Deal and Downs our hearty good wishes. Mr. Bissell says he has seen i Wash ington at its best and he prefers Buf falo. This is certainly a horse on Washington. Washington Post. The Baptis-ts of Hickory held their postponed lawn party last Monday night at the residences of His Honor Mayor Elliott and his next door neigh bor and cousin, Mr. J. Worth Elliott. Chinese or Japanesejlanterns in profus ion decorated the trees in the yard and many smiling luisses and young ladies decorated the lawn. You scream and ice cream and cake and salads of all varieties were had and the receipts swelled the churches exchequer $21.80. George C.

Mrs. Byard Grady fell in the fire Monday, September 2, and was burned to death. Mr. Byard Grady, a re spectable citizen, lives near Hickory Grove, three miles from town. Mon day afternoon he and his wife were at work in their garden. Mr. Grady left for his fields and his wife went into the house. This is all Mr. Grady knew of the accident, till a little girl, daughter of one of the neighbors, came running to him with the sad news that his wife was dead. The little girl for some reason had visited the house and there found the burnt and charred remains of the unfortunate woman. Mrs. Grady had on a big fire in a big old-fashioned fireplace, and was doing some cooking. She probably leaned too far over, lost her balance and fell in the fire. She was old and intirm, and the shock probably caused insen sibility, and before she regained con sciousness was burned to death. She was burn-ad and blackened beyond recognition from her hair down to her shoes. What was left of her clothes was picked off in little pieces, and oft en brought blistered skin with it. Mrs. Grady was between sixty-five and seventy years old. The funeral took place at Hopewell Tuesdav afternoon. Morganton Her ald. " ' A. T. Stewart's Body Pound. A Binghampton, N. Y. special says: A. T. Stewart's body has been found. The body had been buried in a grave near here in 1878. One of the ghouls, J. McCarty, a farmhand who recently died here, told the story on his dying bed. The body was shipped out of New York in a barrel of pickle, labeled fish, to a town near Binghanpton, whence it was conveyed to the farm where it was hidden. McCarty, in his confession, said that ten people were interested in the stealing of the famous New York merchant's body from St. Mark's church yard, seven teen years ago. The thieves never dared to deliver up the body, notwith standing the reward of $50,000 which had been offered. It has long been believed that Judge Hilton, executor and legatee of A. T. Stewart, had re covered the body and that it had been interred in a vault in the magnificent ; cathedral at Garden City, L. 1., which ! had been built as a tomb to the dead i merchant prince. According to the deathbead confession, five of the ten men are still li ing. Cut in;The- LATEST THREE BUTTON 8 m3XUJfl E "iJuLE E LATEST -THREE BUTTON FR0CK(ck: '.

The Cotton States and International Exposition is in receipt ofa letter from Senator John B. Gordon, Commander-in-Chief of the United Confederate Veterans, infbrming them that he has instructed the Adjutant General to issue general orders from headquarters of the Uni ted Confederate Veterans, announcing Blue and Gray Day at the Exposition on September 21. Atlanta is prepar ing to take care of the biggest crowd of visitors on that day which has ris ked the city since Gen. Sherman visit ed it with his army in 1864. Malvern Hill Palme. State Bank Examiner Malvern Hill Palmer, of Warrenton, N. C, died in Ashe ville last Wednesday of fever. Mr. Palmer went to Asheville about a month ago on an official business trip, and was then feeling, unwell. He made examinations of banks in Ashe ville, Henderson ville and Waynes vine, from which latter he returned to Ashe ville and soon was compelled to take his bed. His attack was a very severe one, but as late as the day before his death it was thought he was a little better. Death came to him almost without a minute's warniug. Mr. Palmer was born the day that the battle of Malvern Hill was fought, and was named for that memorable conflict. He was, therefore, about 33 years old. He was graduated from the University of Korth Carolina in 1888, and was appointed state bank exami ner by the last legislature. His first work was on the Koxboro bank case. Mr. Palmer married Miss Jessie Ar rington, daughter of S. P. Arrington, of Richmond, Va., the founder of the jreat Roanoke River Construction Co. in North Carolina. His family, with his brothers, N. M. Palmer, treasurer of Warren county, and Dr. J. R. Pai nter, of Warrenton, and Mrs. S. P. Ar rington, of Richmond, were with him during his illness. The remains were taken to Warren ton, accompauied by the members of the family who were with the deceased. The pall bearers who accompanied the remains to the depot were Locke Craig, C. A. Webb. L. P. McLoud, Alex Webb, F R. Darby, of Asheville, and Mr. McGhee. of Warrenton. Bridge Needed at Bridj?ewater. In its report of the proceedings of the County Commissioners we find the following in the Morganton Herald: "Another important question before the Board, was a high bridge over John's river. The county agrees to give $300 toward the erection of a bridge at this point, provided the town and the citizens in the neighbor hood of the bridge will give enough more to put up a first-class bridge. This is a matter of vital importance, both to our town and the people who use the bridge, and we sincerely hope the bridge will be built. We do wish they could find a way to build a bridge across the Catawba river at Hridgewater. It will bring more business to Burke county than any thing else. Caldwell and Northern Railroad. The first shipment from CoIIettsville over the Caldwell and Northern Rail road was made by W. C. Moore & Co., and consisted of lumber. The ship ment was made one day last week. Le noir Topic.

The American Mining Convention has been called to assemble in Atlanta during the Exposition, on the first week in October. The call was signed by Mr. John Wilkes, of the Mecklen burg Iron Works, of North Carolina; Mr. T. H. Martin, manager of Dixie, and other gentlemen interested in the development of the mining industries of the South. It is proposed to give a practical turn to this meeting, to the end that the unparalleled resources of this region, H'hich will be displayed at this Exposition, as never before exhib ited anywhere, may reap the full ben efit of tliis display by the attraction of profitable investments of capital.
