IN AND ABOUT THE CITY
ASSAILANT OF MRS. SIDES
IS TO DIE IN THE CHAIR
Negro Declared Guilty of Assault on
Former Cabarrus Woman.
Carthage, Aug. 25. —Thomas Ham-|
iltpn, or John McMillan, as he is i
known in some sections, will die inj
the electric chair on Friday, the see- 1
ond day of October, for his brutal I
assault upon Mrs. J. W. Sides, of |
Eagle Springs.
His trial, conviction and sentence
consumed little more than half a day
in Moore Superior Court, and it took
the jury 'hardly more than live min
utes, just enough time to file in and
out of the jury box, to decide his
guilt. ,
The sentence was pronounced by ;
Judge McElroy, who is presiding at
the term, ou the convening of court
after lunch hour. The usual cere-,
inony in such cases was followed, j
Commanded to stand up. the negro
asked if lie had anything to say.
as to why the sentence of deal'll
should not be passed upon him. Ham
ilton. clad in blue overalls, with a
slight ashen color discernible on his
face, muttered incoherently. His ex
act words will probably never be
known, hut lie is understood to have
said, "Yes, sir. I place my trust in
the Lord.” He will die between the
hours of 10 a. m. and 8 p. m. on
the designated day.
It was a clear case against the ne
gro. He was positively identified
as her assailant by Mrs. Sides, who.
with Dr. Wyland Blue, Sheriff K. G.
Frye and Officer I.evitt, were the
only witnesses introduced by the
State. Officer Levitt told of Ham
ilton's admission, while lie was being
brought from Aberdeen to Cartilage
that he wis at the spring where the
assault took place; but his partial
confession, as related by Sheriff Frye,
was stricken from tile records on the
possibility it might have been in
duced by fright, the sheriff having
told Hamilton a big crowd of men
Were looking for him at Eagle
Springs. Dr. Blue told of his ex
amination of Mrs. Sides after the as
sault.
Hamilton is reported to have ad
mitted his guilt to Mr. Burns. "I
have been appointed to defend you.
Mr. Burns is quoted as having said
to the negro, "and 1 would like for
you to tell me the truth. Are you
guilty or innocent?” The negro, hesi
tated. "I guess I had better come
clean.” he is said to have replied, "I
' did it.” This admission, if made, was
■ treated as confidential between at
, torney and client and did not get to
the jury.
(Mrs. Sides is a daughter of An
: thon.v E. Bost. of Concord. —Editor).

THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE
Answer to Yesterday a Fsnfe.
FEDERAL. DRY AGENT HERE
18 STILL ON THE JOB
I). F. Widenhouse Does Not Know
What- Reorganization of Prohibi
tion l'nit Will Mean to Him.
D. F. Widenhouse. local federal
prohibition agent, is working light
on as though no change had been made
iu the prohibition unit. He doesn’t
know what Hen C. Sharpe, the new
prohibition director for this district,
will do with him, but he is willing
to let his record speak for itself, "
Mr. Widenhouse stated this morn
ing that he has heard nothing since
the dry unit was reorganized and for
that reason he has no idea what
changes if any. are to be made in the
work of the federal agents. He has
read iu newspapers that some of the
agents are to be laid off. Mr. Widen
housp said, but of course he does not
know who these agents are.
Local friends of Mr. Widenhouse
are confident that he will be retained
in the service if Director Sharp reads
the records of the agents before dc- 1
cidlng which are to be retained under
the reorganization plan. Agent Will- 1
enhouse lias beeu fine of the most act
ive agents in North Carolina, his cer
vices being so satisfactory that on
several occasions he has been sent out
of the State to carry on special work.
Another evidence of the thorough
ness of his work is seen in the rec
ords of federal courts in which his
prisoners have been tried. Court at
taches declare Mr. Widenhouse al
ways has a strong ease before he
brings a man to court, and when he
goes on the witness stand, say these
court offiffieials. he always makes an
excellent witness because lie knows
what he is talking about.
It is rumored here that many agents
in the State are redoubling their ef
forts now since it is hinted that offi
cers with the best records are to be
retained by Director Sharp. So far
as is known Agent Widenhouse is go
ing about the even tenor of his way,
confident that his record will stuck
I up with the best in the district over
which Mr. Siiarp will have control,
i Director Sharp takes charge of the
district composed of the Caroliuas and
Georgia on September first, aud it is
believed somerannouncement as to the
■ fate' of the . federal agents in the
' tflrestates will be made by him
“ within the. next few days.
SAME TEAM TO BE
WITH GIBSON AGAIN
Both Nines Preparing for the Con
cord-Kannapolis •• World’s Series”
Beginning Thursday.
With a very few exceptions, tlie
same Gibson Mill team which has
beeu playing all season and which
lias proved such a hard nut for Kan
napolis to crack in the previous con
tests will be on band for the "world's
series" Thursday. Friday and Satur
day at Cabarrus Park iu Kannapolis
where the big bout is to be staged.
The two teams, uow in a tie. are
planning to put everything they have
into these three games which will
mean the amateur championship of
North Carolina.
Gibson's batteries will consist of
Simmons. Gates and Ferguson. Hole
liouser. Sherrill and Culp' are report
ed as being the Kannapolis lmrlers.
In addition to these pitchers. Gib
son lias the same old squad back with i
tile exception of Haynes, former s'mrt
stop, who lias been taken by Kan
napolis. The local management, how
ever, guarantees that in Jackson, a
Budin star who has been playing with
the Carolina League, they have a man
in every way the equal of Haynes.
Clemmer. the very best catcher out
side the big leagues, is "sick in bed"
and so he will not be able to partici
pate in the contests. However, a
wire has beeu bent to Casey Morris,
former University star, and the local
management is confident that he will
be here for the contest.
Casey is a wonder as a catcher.
He fields perfectly and in addition is
a homerun slugger of note. With
Casey at the bat. Clemmer will prob
ably not be missed.
In order to stir up interest in the
games, l’arks-Belk Co., is offering a
pair of B. F. Reynolds $lO shoes to
the man on each team who makes the
best batting average in the series.
Sluggers on each team are expected
to put their best foot foremost in an
effort to secure the boots.
Felix Haymanc Hornet owner, lias
declared that he will be at hand to
1 look over some of the material on
■ the two teams which he is considering
> signing up.
At first base, Harrill, State Col
-1 lege star, will be ready for anything
-in this vicinity. Harrill has through-
I out the season done brilUan work at
this bag and has recently improved his
) hitting so that he was batting second
• for Gibson.
Bid Basinger will appear at second
: base. Sid was unable to play in the
: last series with Kannapolis on ac
• count of a sprained ankle but he is
' all primed to do his stuff in this
■ series.
t Fritz Beik will play at third, Jack
• spn at second and in the outfield will
be Gates, Baumgartner and Hatley.
i Kannapolis, for its. part, .will re
tain the same i combination * 'whkfe
» proved so disastrous to the Fayette
t ville Highlanders last week. The
b teum is a heavy hitting buneli and
will give almost any ordinary hurler
trouble.

A horse ballet is one of the new
presentations with Christy Bros, btg
.five ring trained wild animal show.
Three -q uadrons of high-stepping
horses are gracefully put through in
tricate figures of dance with rhyth
mic action without the assistance of '
riders. No stage favorite could con
vey a keener regard for time and pic
ture effect than these equine dancers.
The animals are beautiful specimens
pi grist icratie breeding, amazingly
gduateil. and go through picturesque
movements with a daintiness and pre
cision. of step that is thrililngly eu
josabic This feature iu its varying
entirety is one of (he most fascinating
equine offerings ever presented under
a tent.
'then the new jumping horses are)
quite a new addition. A trio of high
ly bicd. blueblooded equines have
been taught to make high jumps over
obstacle- that are really amazing.
These Steeds are champions ip their
claw and the feats of leaping over the
hurdles and other interferences is
really astonisbiug to those who have
seen feeble attempts to perfortnui sim
ilar feats.
Silt.‘on high-school horses are also
brought forward and they demonstrate
in no mean manner how the equine is
quite a factor in dancing and fancy
stepping. They do all kinds of new
stunts and one of the members of
the troupe does a one-step that is a
revelation in horse training.
The equine features will all be pre
sented by Christy Bros, when they
appear in Concord on Friday, Sep
tember 18th.
