It is to be doubted if a better team
can ba found in the South. The
only essential lacking is team work
and that Salisbury did not have

This wts Jus ia a great measure,
however, to tho tact that many of

HIS LIFE GROUND OUT.
Lloyd Staftord Mangled by Wheels Un
der Which He Falls.
Asbeviile, N. C, June 30. A
fatal accident occurred on the yards
of the Southern Railway this morn
ing shortly after 8 o'clock, when
Floyd Stafford, a white boy, 15 or
16 years old, of the Reems Creek
section of the county, in attempt
ing to swing up on a freight car
of a westbound train was thrown
beneath the wheels and crushed to
death. ,
The fearful accu'ent was wit
nessed by several parties, who im
mediately went to the unfortunate
boy's assistance. It was found that
the right leg was crashed and
mangled; the kf t leg broken and
an ugly gash on the head ml that
he was also crushed about the mid
dle of the body and injured inter-
naliy.
When the boy wts picked up he
was still anve and exhibited a
wonderful amount cf nerve. He
told those about him that his name
was Floyd Stafford; that he lived
Reems Creek townbhin and that
he was making his way to Tennes
see. He looked at his mangled
limbs and took considerable inter
est in his hurt. He lived about
ah hour, when death relieved him
of his suffering.

Passaic, N. J, June 30. When
Mail Clerk Samuel Bailey of the
Passaic postoffiee opened the mail
bag, containing a number of let
ters from Philadelphia and New
York this morning, a cat, much
the worse for travel, crawled out
and fell exhausted on the floor.
A torn tag was tied about the
cat's neck. After examning the
tag with a magnifying glass and
pitting the pieces together, the
e'erks found that the cat had been
shippad from Pailadelphia.
After being fed a good meal of
milk and bread, the cat picked up,
and this afternoon was running
around the postoffiee as lively as if
it had never traveled in a mail
bag. Several of the letters in the
bag were torn by the cat.
