Raxbioh, March 14. George R. Gay,
the white man charged with the murder,
or rather the assassination of Aysock la
WUaon county, and who was put la the
penitentiary to ssts him from threat
ened lynching, has been taken to Wilson
for trial, The sheriff and a deputy took
him. It is the first oase in which a pris
oner under charges was placed in the
penitentiary.
JoseDh Blake, the surveyor of this
county, died In a hospital herrlast night
of congestion of the lungs. His age
was 63. He was in the rain several
hours last Saturday in Johnston county
and did not change his clothing. He
was a member of one of the most prom
inent families in the county and was
greatly esteemed.
It is decided that Col. W. B. Rodman
of Washington, N. C , shall be the agent
of the State board of education for all
the lands In its control, known as
"swamplands." The position does not
carry with it any salsry or expense to
the State.
There Is a good deal of criticism of
the exercise of the pardoning power by
Governor Aycock. There is this to be
said In this connection, that the number
of pardons he granted daring the Drst
twelve months of his administration
was the same as the number granted by
Gov. Vance daring his first year and
only 4 more than the number granted by
Gov. Jarvla daring the first year of his
regular term.
There will no doubt : be critlolsm of
(he commutation of the death sentence
of Andrew Sherman Jackson, the white
man convicted of burglary in Lincoln
county. It Is assorted that public opln
Ion was la favor of execution. It Is
also alleged that Jackson's family Is
revengeful and that the house of a wit
ness against him was burned. But the
Governor is confident that he took the
right course, with new evidence, in
shape of affidavits, before him. It Is
stated Jackson was sure he would be
hanged and that his mind was so
wrought up that when he was placed In
the penitentiary the sheriff who brought
him told the officials be would be worth
less so far as any work was concerned.

John Smith, a colored train hand, was
landing on the front part of the shanty
car when the Jar occurred. He was
thrown forward against the car Just
ahead 'and would have fallen on the
rails bat for the fact that the bumpers
were stove up and the two cars too close
together to permit him falling between
them. As it was, the brakeman was In
jared right badly. The exact extent of
his injuries could not b elearned, but It
is feared that he is injured Internally.
He was taken to his home In New Bern
this morning. ,
The bumpers on several of the freight
oars were broken and it took the force
of train hands all night to pull the cars
with chains Into the city and place them
on the sidetracks. The work was done,
however, without any delay to traffic
and the morning trains left on time this
morning ss usual.
