" --' The young ladies of Mont 'Amoena Seminary., are devotees faithful and tone of Halloween eusUwaes with all the atcudant witchery and wjerdness This fact was thoroughly emphasised in their annual celebration Saturday night of this famous event. This prov ed to be one of the real events of so cial life In student circles. A iraaber , of invitations were issued to friends in town all of whom enjoyed the novel diversions both appropriate and amus ing that the young ladies had pre pared. Little Miss Mary Beaver entertained a number of her young friends at a -birthday party Saturday evening. Putting yonr ear to the ground amd listening closely you ean hear the dis tant rumblings of the railroad for Mt Pleasant that never comes. There is one gentleman lie re, whose name we - advisedly withhold just now, who is not witlinff to give op and wait, and if a road ever comes to this burg, great and lasting credit must necessarily be given him. Through the efforts of this individual Mt. Pleasant 'a poor and destituted condition ("railroadingly" speaking) haateen presented to some men high iq railroad circles, men who control roads by the thousands of nrilec and eonld build a hundred roads to Mt. Pleasant if they wished, and in due season something may yet torn up. At a recent meeting of the directors of the Kindley Mills it was decided to close out the entire line of dry goods. Tt is not yet known who the successor will be. Owing to the steady rise in the price of cotton the Tusearora Mill ik run ning but five days in the week. At last! Indeed, everything does come to him wbo waits. For lo these many days Eastern Cabarrus has been waiting patiently through democratic and republican sunshine e'nd rain for that day when there would be solid connection between Mt. Pleasant audi Concord on the public road. And now the anouncement comes that the last bridge will be completed this" week. This is too good to be true. It must be the prank of some politician to fool the people. t.-", v The Institute juniors erossed bats with the graded school nine Saturday.

C Rowe, Presiding Elder, of the Balis DIED FROM BOTBIBS v FBOM FOOT BALL. Acting Captain Bryae ef the Amy Foot Bail Team Diss After Being Injured in the Oam of Saturday HU Death Brings Ahoat Talk on the Oam as Played How. , West-Point, N. T, Oct. 31. Be cause of the death of Eugene A Bryne, of Buffalo, N. Y., no more foot ball wiB be played by the West Point eleven' thia year,! This state ment was made by CoL Hugh L. Scott, eufMrintendent of the United States Military Aendemy, late tonight, after a eoasolatioa ariUi tht athletic authorities of the-academy on the death of young Bryne,Jwho expired tbis morning as a result of Injuries sustained in the Harvard game yester day. West Point, N..Y., Oct, 31-Cadet A. Eugene Bryne of Buffalo, N. T. a fourth year man at the United States Military Academy, died in the cadet hospital at 0:30 o'clock this morning, a sacraflce to foot bsll. The army is accustomed to death, but not in this deplorable form; and thi? tragedy of the gridiron lias brought such poigant grief to the ofheers and eadets alike that the end of foot ball lit West Point and Annapolis is pre dieted by many. Young Bryne expired just as the sun was rising over the bills along the Hudson, with his grief-stricken father, John Bryne, a civil war veter an, at 'Ms hedside. Brave aa was the young soldier's fight against death, il was hopeless from the start. Buried beneath a mass of struailing players in the Harvard-Army game yester day, his neck was twisted and broken bv Vhe weight of the crushing pile above him, and he was picked up with every nerve of his body except those of his head and face 'helpless to perform their function. Young Bryne was only 21 years old but was t veteran of the army loot ball team and popular with his class mates and officials. He was acting as captain of the eleven yesterday, and he gave his life, too eagerly perhaps. But as his fattier wiribed it, strug- ling on the field for the honor of the army. Bryne was injured in a mass play on tackle, which had been used sev eral times previous to the accident. Bryne, standing valiantly as left tackle for the army, was forced under the rush of Crimson players and on faling must have had his head twist ed into position where the weight of the men piling up on him was greater than the strong ligaments of the vertebral column at the back could stand. They snapped with the prssure and the fatal lesion resulted. When it became known that Bryne was suffering from paralysis of the entire body below the line of the jw bones, the cadet corps grasped the similarity ibetween Wbis and occur rence of the West Point field and the recent injury to Earl Wilson at An napolis. "If Bryne dies it will kill foot ball for both West Point and Annapolis," was the frequent remark heard on Hie grounds last night and today, with Bryne dead, the felling prevailed that the existence of foot ball as a sport participated in by the government's big school had been suddenly jeopardised. ' ?. ; v -- Bryne waa beloved by all at West Point, not only for his foot ball ability but because f his good fellowship. ' a :: Infant. Burned to Death at Lsnior. vLenlor, N. C, Oct. 30.

"Moonstruck" This artistically colored picture shows a harlequin wending his way to his humble abode after a big night with the iboys. After many difficulties he at last reaches his room, tired and exhausted from the effects of too much wine, falls asleep on his bed. Sudenly there is a great transformation scene; he dreams that be is out in the street, and we see him napping on a bench at the edge of the sidewalk. Waking up he espies the moon and makes up his mind that he ia going to pay the man in the moon a visit, so be starts to climb up the side of a house and eventually finds himself on the roof. After prowling around for a while a big wind storm arises and blows everything away, and Harliquin, realizing his danger, grabs a atove pipe and before long he flies through the air. He passea through the cloud and makes the long trip up through the sky, Anally arriving at his destination, where he alights and lookt. things over. Coming to the month of the moon lie ia curious to know what ia inside, so he dives right in." To his horror, however, he finds himself in s vertiable inferno, where be sees all sorts of strange objects, and funny looking people, who dance around him end endeavor to extend their hospital ity toVfhe odd-looking stranger. Fin ally, after many ordeals, he makes his scape and divas out into space again, and as fas eome i flying head first through the sir, and just as he lauds on terra drina, he wakes up and finds himself kicking on the floor, fio thank ful is he thai it is only a dream that he smashes the wins bottle and swears A man wife is hi. better half,'," remarked the Wise Ouy. In theory only," added the Simple Mug. 'Ia reality he's about one-tnth." f--'.J Lota of men talk big about settling ths affairs of ths nation when they dont even settle with the botcher and the grocer. . - ':' ' WATKINS JURY HUNG UP. Reported That the Twelve Stand Six For Acquittal and Six For Convic tion and That There Will Be No Agreement ia the Case Judge Adams WiU Likely Discharge Them. Asheville, Oct. 31. The indication tonight is that the Wat kins jury is hopelessly tied; that it is evenly divided, six for acquittal and six fof conviction; that there is hardly any chances at all for an agreement and that the rase which occupied all last week in Siierior court will result in a mistrial. It wns learned on well-founded ru mor today (bat the report last aiight Mist on the last ballot the jury stood seven for aequital and five for con viction was an error; that as a matter of fact every ballot taken has been ix for and six against the defendant, stands thoroughly the instructions of the court and the tie-up is not question of furtebr instructions from the court. The jury has spent the day alternately in the jury room, out walking and lounging in the court house yard. Just how long Judge Adams will keep the jury together is not indicated but it is probable that if the men fail to agree by tomorrow, a mistrial will be ordered. The consensus of opin ion here is that the jury will not igree and that the case will have eo Se fought all over again. LASSITER DIES SUDDENLY. Death of Petersburg Representative Is a Surprise.
