THIS fc>Al) 8T0K1 OF A YOUNG MAN WHO UIED A CONVICT, And The Moral to He Drawn From the 8tory oi Bis 8ad Fate. Seldom In every day life does one run aero88 a more tragic 1 ifstory than that of the gentle Kentucky lad wlio died the other day ai High Polut N. C , a road convict with a holr through his body to mark the path of a v?ugc.ful bullet from the guards remorseless Winchester. He is spoken of as ?antie, booauso, though olearlv lacking in high moral purpose, he seems to have been brought up polite1>; and, Ixodes, his dying breath was a plea for better treatment for his fellow convicts on the road lie was considerate of Ms companions in suf fering, and all the recorded utterances of the dying boy stamp him as p a sensing more of the llaer Instincts of his race than some of his fellow-met; who have been lucky enough to sta> off of the chain-gang. Ho was convicted of forgery in a North Carolina court under an assumed name, and sent to the cbalngang. He refused to divulge. Ms real name, saving his parents were well tc do people In Kentucky and that he did not want them to know of his waywardness and disgrace. He wa?n Intelligent, bright young man arid was no doubt, as ? e claimed, reared in a. woll t".r?-H i hnrno A ft n, .. v.. viv uvuiWi i & i UL/l OL" I V l l<y sometime on the chain-gang he made an attempt- to espnpc, and wan allot by one of the guards atld mortally wounded. He was told that he wa* going to die and urged to tell what his real name was and where his folks lived in Kentucky, but he declined. He said he was reared in a gentle Kentucky home by Indulgent parents, out would not reveal the name of ills parents or where they lived. He died and carried his secret with him to the grave. Taking it as true, says the Gaslo nia GrzUt-c, that he was bred In a *eutie Kentucky home, one wonders what Is the secret cf his downfall Was It heredity? Was It lack of a mother's nursing and a mother s prayers? Did this man ain or his parents that he was born to temptation like the r-'st of us and at last died a ocm vict? Perhaps these things will nevei be known until everything else is opened to the ken of man and the an irels, but there Is one seiiteuoe of his last words that may serve to base a guess upon. "1 was reared to everything 1 wanted," ho said, and therein may have been the open door to all the 111 that he could not conquer In his life's little way. There are few of us who do not need thu saving virtues which wima t.n nnr characters from discipline?bard, austere discipline. Endure hardness as a good soldier, was the Apostle's In J motion.

The dead are: B<n jiraln O bbart, Benjamin Kineer, George Hineor, Fr??d R ch, Collins Parker, Pharles Shtll, tViiliam Funk, John B.mtman, an unknown man, two men, unknown, residents of Yorkoounty. All except the last two, lived In the vicinity of the dynamite plant. Five ot-hers were seriously Injured. The accident was one of th ^ must horrible in the history of Lancaster. The victims were literally torn to pieces, not enough remaining of a single body to make identification possible. The cause of the explosion Is not known. Toe two unknown residents of York county who wore killed had just started to drive from the place with a loud of dynamite. They had scarcely gained a distance of 50 feet when the plant blew uu with a detonation that vras Inard 30 miles away. A great cloud of smoak covered the site of the factory and when It had cleared away there was not a vestige of the horses, wagon and men who had left the factory a moment before. The air was tilled with dehrl3, fragments i f human bodies and pieces of tlesh and llmhs were found hanging to a. tree nearly 100 yards from the ic^ne of the disas r.er. People living near the factory rushed out of their homes and began the work of rescue, but there were rew persons who had not boen blown to pieces. The plant consisted of a dozen buildings. All were blown to plrcos except a romott structure In which several girls were at work, none of whom were Injured. The plant was owned by J. R McKee of Pittsburg. It was situ ated half way between Pequea and Manic Ford. W*fe Killer. A dispatch from Charleston says the conviction and sentencing of William Marcus a white man for the muider of his wife, has resulted In an oxamlnation of the records which show that It Is almost almost 50 years sii.ee a white man >.?? hung In Charleston county. Strange to say the last white man huug was executed for wife murder, his name was White and ho also killed his wlfr by stabbing her. lie usrda knife and not an Ice pick as did Marcus. An )ther coincidence connec,ed with the sonvlctlon of Marcos Is that the last white m*u convicted of murder, ai bbough the plea of Insanity secured i corcmulal by the governor, was also 'or wife killing, and the case was irled before Judge A id rich who sat at jho present term of the court. \V*tttH * New Tt ial.
