Smoot, of the firm of Rogers Clothing Company here, and who has been In Texas ' several years, has bought oat Rev. B. 8. MoKenzie's interest in the Rogers Clothing Store. He will make Salisbury his home and assist in the management of the busi ness. Considerable complaint is made by the 'cyclists here of the recent ordi nance passed by the cty council pro hibiting ridine on the sidewalks. The Kowan Rifles, recently organized here, at a meeting last night appointed a committee to solicit contributions from the citizens to buy fatigue uni forms for the company. The moonlight picnic last night at South River, complimentary to visiting young ladies, was a most delightful affair. Lunch was served at 10:30. Dancing and rowing on the river were features of the evening. The party re turned about 12:30 this morning. Wilson Williams, the negro brake- man who was hurt in the freight wreck near Glen Alpine Wednesday morning. died from his injuries, and his body was brought to Salisbury to-night, for burial. Mr. Theo. Klutlz left last for Raleigh. Miss Lai Hill, of Concord, is visit ing in the city. Mr. Walter Peacock was practicing on a trapeze last night and fell break ing his collar bone. One of the colored men belonging to the bridge force of the Southern Rail road, while assisting at some work on the turn-table at the railroad shops, yes terday afternoon:, had his jaw bone broken. Quite a crowd of Salisburians will at tend the centennial celebration at Lower Stone church to-morrow. Rev. N. S. Jones leaves to-morrow for Connelly's Springs to begin a series of meetings. THIS CARSON MURDERS. Page Turns State's Kvidence and Tells of the Crime A Lynching Entirely Possible. Special to the Observer. Spartaubcrg, S. C, Aug. 5. Mrs. J. O. Carson, Ed Green and J. B. Page have been arrested for the murder of J. O. Carson, and if Judge Lynch does not take a hand in the case, Judge Bennett will perhaps be called upon to sit ujon the most horrible cold-blooded murder case that has ever been tried in this State. After the killing Green fled into North Carolina, but on Sunday night was captured and brought back getting off the train at Landrum's. There they were met by a mob of about 150 who were eager to lynch Green on the spot, and it was with the greatest difficulty that the officers prevented it. An investigation is being held to-day at Fingerville. There is an enormous and excited crowd present. The feel- ing is most intense. Threats of lynch ing are heard on all sides and the situa tion is serious. Page has turned States evidence and has told the story of the killing. He says that on that fatal -night he slept at Green's house and that Green and Mrs. Carson went over to Carson's house, and on Green's return he said, "Me and Mrs. Carson have killed Carson and if anything ever comes from it I will give you $100 to swear that I slept with you all night." Page's story in the main in true, yet t is thought that he took a hand in the killing, as some of his clothes, all be- smered with blood, were found at his house. The prisoners will be brought to jail here to-night if they can escape the hands of the mob. Sherritf Dean and a posse have just left here for New prospect, the scene of the killing to Protect, if possible, the prisoners from the hands of an excited mob of COO. A FATAL RAILROAD WRECK. Fireman Killed Many Wounded The Last of the Elliott Brothers Killed. Whitk Plains, N. Y., Aug. 3. A fa tal accident caused by a misplaced switch, or broken rail, occurred near Chatham, on the Harlem Railroad, at noon to-day.

Another brother was also killed on Saturday only a few miles dis tant from where Fireman Elliott met his death to-day. The death of Myron makes the third son killed on the Har lem.

It Ban Between Mew Orleans and Baa .- Francisco bbortens Time from .Hew ' York to Los Angeles. : Washington, Aug. 5. The Southern PacLfio Railway will, commencing Oo tober 1st, run a semi-weekly ,4sunset limited" between New Orleans and San Francisco, connecting with Southern Railway trains between New York and new Orleans. But one fast train ' a week, known as the "sunset limited," is now beiog run between New Orleans and the Pacific coast. Officials of the two systems are satisfied that the in- creased business between , the Pacific slope and the East will justify the ad ditional train and tbey also express the belief that during the holding- of the exposition at Atlanta the passenger traffic between Mexico and.Texas will be largely augmented. Under the new arrangement passengers leaving New York on Tuesday and Saturday even ings of each week will make a close connection at New Orleans on Thurs day and Monday mornings for San r rancisco. Under the present sched ule the travel between New York and Los Angeles over the Southern and by the "sunset limited" is seventeen hours shorter than by the northerly routes. When the additional "limited" is es tablished the time will be shortened three hours. The Southern Railway managers have decided, in view of the increasing busi ness over their road from the Pacific coast, that they will appoint a Califor nia agent with headquarters at Ban Francisco on September 1st. Hereto fore the road has had no direct repre sentative on the coast. A 1,000,000 F1RK. The Town ef Spragne, Wash , Visited With an Awful Calamity. Spokane, Wash., Aug. 4 Yesterday's fire at Sprague, which caused a loss of about $1,000,000, started in Milton's liv ery stable, on the corner of First and C streets, on the south side of the North ern Pacific tracks. The wind was blow ing a hurricane at the time. From the stable the flames jumped across the tracks to the station and grain elevator and from there the fire was communi cated to the railroad company's ice and storage houses and soon the handsome headquarters buildintr was in flames. The fire continued to lick up the build ings on the north side, including the Pacific Hotel, until only a few scatter ing dwellings were left standing. All the time the devastation was eo- ing on on the south side of the tracks another arm of the fire was fast making for the main business portion of the town. Starting from where the fire broke out, the flames in -a twinkling licked up two blocks of frame buildings facing the track, and then a dreaded event took place the immense carshops caugnt nre. The nre at that point was terrific. The flames soon communicated" to the immense oil tanks in the rear of the shops, and with a loud explosion they burst, scattering the burning oil in every direction. It was fortunate that the intense heat had driven everybody back out of danger from the explosion. 1 he oil spread the fire in all direc tions and then it was that all hope of saving the city was given up.; A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. A Scaffold Falls at Davidson and Injures Several Persons Badly. rtpeoial to the Observer. Davidson, Aug. 5. Mr. Thomas Gudger is building the smokestack at the Linden Cotton Mill. He and several other men were on the scaffold, about 30 feet from the ground, this morning at 9 o'clock, when a part of the scaffold gave way, precipitating Mr. Holland Helper, Mr. William Potts (son of Mr. Thomas Potts), and Pat Sloan, colored, to the ground. The latter is seriously in jured and the former badly bruised. Mr. Helper has a number of ugly cuts on his head, one two inches long, en tirely through the scalp, to the bone. Although three doctors reside here, they were all away at the time of the accident, and it was sometime before any of them arrived. They examined the wounded men and report no bones broken. Pat Sloan had a large splinter through his wrist that had to be cut out. WANT TO REMOVE THE CASE. The Trial of Arthur Tnttle Begins In Winston Death of a Tobacconist. Special to the Observer Winston, Aug. 5. The grand jury returned a true bill against Arthur Tut tle for the murder of Policeman Vick ers in Winston, on May 18th. This afternoon counsel for defendant read a lengthy paper asking Judge Brown to remove the case to another county, claiming that public sentiment in For syth was so strong against his client a fair trial could not be had here.
