Life of Gibsonville Man Crushed Out
by Southern Freight Train.
Thomas Stout, of Gibsonville. met
a horrible death about 6 o'clock Mon-day
evening, when he was run over
and killed by a Southern freight train
at a point about a mile and a half
west of Elon College. Stout was in
Elon College during the- afternoon
and is said to have been drinking,
lie was seen by Messrs. M. R. Cook,
lake Patton and Hilary Shepherd
walking along the railroad in the di-rection
of Gibsonville a short time
before he was killed. It Is believed
that he sat down on a crosstie and
went to sleep. A curve in the track
prevented the engineer and fireman
from seeing him until It ' was too
late to stop the train and avret the
tragedy.
The body was horribly mangled,
the head being crushed into a jelly

his deadly onslaught -' lv numerous
compromises, until the flower among
the beautiful virgins had been stcii-ficed.
The successful taiethod found
wus whan St. Oeorge. in^ the name
of the cross, struck him in his only
vulnerable point, his mouth, and kill-
>d him. So with the liquor traffic.
She traced the history of all attempts
from generation to generation, urging
all not to cease to agitato the ques-tion.
She answered in an effective
way the various objections against
prohibition and gave statirtic: to
show that much gocd was being done
by the steps which had been teken.
The address was one of the finest
that has been civet- in this city. It
was replete with classical allusions:
her diction was perfect, her wit keen.

bag of gold and silver were given
away. Miss Zenobia Vaughn, of
Stokesdale, was the winner of the

Grsensboro Tobacco Market Hum-ming.
The Graansoo.0 tobacco mrrket
continues to enjoy a liberal patron
age from the growers in the terri-tory
tributary to this city. The sales
have been unusually hecvy fcr th?

prices are holding up remarkahly
well. Comparatively speaking, the
commoner grades are bringing better
prices than the finer grades, but all
the patrons of the market appear to
be well pleased with the results of
their sales. In a number of cases
