CIRCUS MAM STABBED.
As a Result of Long Standing Feud J
M J Kane U Wounded by
Cuddy Service.
The first tragic occurrence of circus
time occur red yesterday when JMJ
Kane, advertising man for the Fore
paugh and Sella elrcui was stabbed In
the bieait by Cuddy Service, advertising
man for the John Robinson elrcui.
Kane Is not serioMly lnjared,hla wound
however, Is near the heart, the knife
blade striking a rib at a point a little
more than an inch from the heart and
deflecting In an opposite direction fol
lowing the course of the bone. The
wound Is about two Inches long and a
third of an Inch deep. The man will
probably suffer nothing other then the
nervousness and pain which naturally
follows such attacks.
The cause of the assault dates back
two years. The men have not been
friendly and though they have met fre
quently while in the transaction of their
duties they have had but few encoun
ters. It seems, moreover, that the rival
ry of the two circuses enters but little
into the matter, the quarrel being of a
pnrely personal nature.
The attaok occurred at the Coast Line
depot yesterday morning just before the
train left for Wilmington. Kane httd
checked his baggage preparing to leave
for Wilmington and Service bad gone
np there to get a package when they
got together. There waa little said by.
either men before the deed was done and
the weapon used a small pocket knife,
was used before a lick waa atruck. The
first knowledge of any of the byatandera
that Kane had been cot was when he ex.
clsimed "stop that man, be stabbed me."
Service went over a short distance to a
barn where some of his men were mak
ing paste and offioer Bryan arrested him
there He made no resistance.
Service was arraigned i a the police
court )esterday afternoon. Mr W W
Clark appeared foi the State and Mr E
M Oreen was attorney for Service. The
testimony was given by Doctors Caton
and Jones snd was Introduced to deter
mine under what amounts of bonds the
defendant should te placed.
As a result of the examination Mayor
Bills bound him over for trial In Super
lor Court In the sum of $100 which he
gave.
Both Service and Xtae live in Clncln
nasi.
Late last evening Kane swore out a
peace warrant for Servloe before Justice
S R Street, before whom the hearing
will be at 10 o'clock today.
An Answer to Geo S. Wilcox's Card
New Bern, Oct 1st 1904.
Ed Journal.
Dxab Sib: First I wish to correct the
Register of Deeds Information to Mr
Wilcox, that he was recommended by
the RepuDllcan chairman of theBxe
entire oommlttee as a Republican, we
recommended Mr Geo 8. Wllcon to re
present the Republican party as Judge
of election, not because we thought that
he was a Republican, but because we be
lieved him to be an honest man, and
would give all sides justice.
Our reason for that conclusion was be
cause he would not bo driven by the
pSrty lash In 1000 to vote for the consti
tutional amendment against his honest
convictions, and was defeated for Coun
ty Surveyor by the Democratic bosses,
and I believe he stands as an out cast, to
day in the Democratic party beoause of
that Independence, but if we are mis
taken in our conclusion about Mr Wilcox
we are glad that he has publicly Inform
ed as.
He explains at some length his reason
for being a democrat, which Is about the
usual reasons given, that his Daddies
before him were Democrats, Indeed by
looking away down the ages he finds his
great grandfather to be a Democrat, be
fore the Americans ever elected a Presi
dent, and seems to gather great coursge
by relating that bis father once licked a
man because he differed from him In
politics, If he had a little more family
history to relate, I recall he would be
come so enthusiastic, that he would be
like old Dave Crocket, he would declare
himself one half bear, the other half
wild cat, and would be ready to gnaw
great hunks out of any man that would
not vote for Parker.
We do not consider It a very great
calamity for him to decline to accept, or
that his card will have any serious effect
because most everybody takes George as
a kind of novice.
We sincerely hope that George will
read some of Vance's maxims, especially
the one in which he says, that wise men
will change but fools will not.

SUGGESTIONS FOR HEALTH.
School Rooms and Public Buildings
Should be Thoroughly Dis
infected.
Science haa revealed a good many un
pleasant things for the good ot the hu
man race. That is a paradoxical state
ment bnt It it none the less true. To be
plain on the matter we .mean that the
theories advanced by physicians and bac
terlologlstt on the question ot tne sour
ces of disease are baaed on facts.
People can not be too careful In this
season when epidemics of colds, diphthe
rht, typhoid fever and malaria are so
prevalent about how well they keep
their living rooms.
Germs of the deadliest kind are to be
found In the dust arising from sweep
ing. In places where there Is sickness
of any kind there is great need to keop
the room where the patient is scrupu
lously clean and properly disinfected
In order to prevent the spread of the
disorder.
A gentleman told the Journal recently
that boards of health were too derelict
in their duty because they did not re
quire the Boards of health to command
janitors of school houses under their
control to use a disinfectant while
sweeping the tchool room.
This Is a matter which needs attention
as scholars assemble In the school rooms
who come from homes where there is
disease in one form or another and they
unconsciously carry germs with them
unites they use the greatest precaution
themselves.'
There la always need of a thorough
cleansing In a room where pupils of all
conditions are gathered together.
It is Incumbent on the Board of Trus
tees of the New Bern Graded school to
promote and sustain the health of the
school children to order a hygienic
cleaning of the school room every day.
The rule should apply to other public
buildings where audiences gather.
