A Bedford, Ohio, clergyman named Wight is in difficulty with his church, on account of a little failing he had, for hugging the younger members of his flock. Many instan ces were cited where tne minister kissed and hugged the girls. Some of the aggrieved young women tell re markable stories about Wight's con duct. This sort of testimony was tak en before a committee of mature mar ried women belonging to the church. The expositions of these pious old hyp- ocrits are becoming alarmingly fre quent, nowadays. Our ever practical and sensible contemporary, the Charlotte Demo crat in speaking of the gorgeous invi tation cards now being distributed by our educational institutions of North Carolina sounds the key, note by be- claring them to be "unnecessarily, ex pensive" and that "plain cards would draw as well as any." Considerably over two thousand dollars are'sehf out of the State every year to buy these excessively high art invitations which aic uivanauiy emueuisneu wun some classical or hreroglyplric ' What is it ?"s, and.not unfrequently accompan ied by the misspelt name of some as piring commencement representatives. The present unpleasantness ;be- lHtu caPll!U ana iaor resemDies a disagreement between man and wifv I in which the mutual interest of the . twain is unhappily sacrificed vto 1 the selfishness and folly of one or the other, or both, of the parties con cerned.

It is no longer a question, but an absolute certainty that Mr. Blaine is now fairly and squarely a candi date for the Republican nomination In 1888. Heretofore it has been said that he was not a candidate in the true sense, but only made so by his friends. To-day he is fairly and open ly in the race, auJ so far appears to have the effectual calling. It is cer tain that in the recent elections of Chairman asd Secretary of the Re publican Congressional Committee, Mr. Blaine's candidacy wus squarely made an issue, and his friends sue- ceeded in electing two pledged friends, Mr. Goff, of West Virginia, 'and 'Mr. McPherbon, of Pennsylvania both of whom, as well la 'the poaajoriiT At the committee will do all iff-ihelf power to secure not only expressions 01 endorsement of Mr. Blaine, , but they will trj; and so, manage? affairs that friends of Mr. Blaine will be nominated for Congress in the several Congressional Districts. The Charlotte Observer, be it un derstood is a news paper. It AN ILL "WIND THAT MAY BLOUT ? - antra uum..i v; & One of the effects oi therecent not at St. Louis, Chicago and Milwaukee, is to call the attention of the people to the fact that it is high time that the doors to Uncle Sam's domains were shut against the criminals, socialists, communists, nihilists and anarchists of the old world. America has been the dumping ground of Europe for all those, dis turbers of domestic order that she de sired to be rid of, and we have pro claimed broadcast that the land ot the free, and the home of the brave," was broad enough and liberal enough not only to take all these cattle in, "but to give them all a farm." A farm is not what they have wanted ; they want the earth and not being able to secure it they take the opposite horn and propose to raise cain. Just now in all quarters Democrats, Republicans, capitalists and working men are in the humor to send these fellows to Jerico, and then forbid the admission of any others of their kid ney to the privileges of American cit izenship or even to admission on her shores. ' If the present agitation shall result in restriction of emigration to Amer- ica, and the enjoyment of American :f:i,- i i i. xi. Citizenship to only the honest, the up right and the industrious who seek her h because they really love J ivy- liberty, the lives that have been lost, the blood that has been spilled, will not have been in vain. Among the intelligent, industrious j adopted citizens, as well as those to the manor born, there is a growing sentiment in favor of a true American party ; one that will make American citizenship synonimous with peace, law, order and intelligence. , . , In ransacking the. apartments of the communistic paper in Chicago, whose editor, Parsons, has concealed himself from the police, a letter was found which had evidently been used by Parsons in his paper The Alarm and concludes with the excla mation, "Vive la commune." The writer of this letter was a Durham man, who first signed his name Jun ius A. Strickland, but afterwards scratched it out, and substituted. don't publish my name, but sign it Knights of Labor." He requested that his communication1 be published and enclosed 75 cents for ten copies of the Alarm to vbe sent to B. Gold- ger, P. O. Box 277, Durham, N. C, and "as many free copies as- you poss- ibly can for "agitatioDfiftv if p, ossi- I ble.' It is a strange fatality which con- tinually averts or postpones the final ! judgement against Cluverius, . the alleged murderer of Fanny Lillian Madison in Richmond. A 'few weeks ago he was refused a new trial by the G.,n r..- j r , . .. , the information is current that his at- lorney nas mane a motion: lor a rev A 1 1 .

Just as tbe sun was setting this evening the most fearful tragedy, that ever was enacted ia this county took place en Fayette street. " , , ,.- -,, . : .The shrill whistle froni the steam engine of Spencer Brothers' factory rang out on the clear and balmy eve ning air, and ere its sound had died away fti 'the distant hills," Fayette street was alive with "rollicking factory hands and employes. There had been some slight uspicion that a disturb ance would occur between the Messrs. Terry and Spencer. Among the surg ing mass of the gaily enchanting em ployes were seen 'going in the direc tion of. Spencer Brothers factory Messrs; Ben. Jake, and W. K. Terry. Coming in the opposite direction meet ing the Terrys, ,-were Colonel P. D,. J. D. and G. O. Spencer. They met about half way betweea the Mountain View Hotel and the said factory a distance of about 200 yards. Colonel P. D. Spencer was called into the mid dle of the street by W. K. Terry, and was asked to apologize for an insulting circular issued yesterday reflecting on Mr. W. K. Terry. At this juncture all the Terrys and Spencers had gather ed in a group; together with several other lneuds of the parties. J, D. Spencer insisted that that was no place to settle the matter, and asked that a time and place should be designated, where thj trouble could be settled without jeopardizing the lives of oth era. Several police officers appeared on the scene and tried to effect the ar rest of all the parties. The difficulty seemed almost certain to be amicably settled for the time being, when some indiscreet person fired a pistol. V. A TERRIBLE FU8ILADE. . Thereupon followed a regular fusil ade. At least a dozen revolvers flash ed in the air. The death-dealing mis- ! siles flew thick and fast, rarely missing meir' prey, n.ve'-y man stood nis ground with nerve and grit that would do honor to the Romans. In the space of two or three minutes nine men bit the earth. All fell in a radius of ten feet. At least three dozen shots were fired. Jake Terry was shot in the side and killed. The wounded are : Col. P. D. Spencer was shot in the right side, the ball striking a rib and following it around and coming out at the back. . T. F. Brown, shot painfully in the thigh and seriously in the shoulder. . W. K. Terry, shot in left shoulder near the spinal column. The ball is supposed to have passed into his lung. His wounds arc very serious. Ben Terry, shot in the bowels and neck." Wounds very serious. - " B. 'Jones, ".painfully wounded in the thigh.X y '- Hugh Dyer, shot in the thigh. ;! Both of the Gregorys were shot in the back accidentally, Sandy 'Martin, colored, was shot in the thigh. - The wouuds of the Terry's and T. F. Brown, are of the most dangerous character. All the parties are being carea ior, ana ineir every want is grat ified. . bow the rnotTBte bsgas . i The trouble b-gau Friday night. A circular letter was gotten up then and circulated the following day, headed "Martinsville Tax Bill?'; There were some rough allusions in this article to the mayor and some of "the council. Mr. "W. K. Terry was thought to have had soniethiug to do "with it. " Sunday morning a circular was issued, in which Mr. W. K. Terry's name was not used, yet the inference was strong and tbe language was very insulting. This morning W. K. Terry posted a card denouncing the author as a con temptible scoundrel. The noon train brought up his brothers Ben and Jake, and the three demanded of our news paper man the names of the parties. This was given with the above results. This affair is deeply deplored. The Terrys are among the best peo ple , in Virginia;-' They: are high- minded honest and inoffensive citi zens. The Spencers are also of the best families. They are splendid busi ness men and highly esteemed, honor able citizens. All this woe grew out of a little rough fun or joke. Our town is bowed down with grief at this most terrible sequel to a little fued. A corout-r's inquest will be held to-morrow, and warrants will be is sued for outsiders who took part in the shooting. t-i ADDITIONAL PARTICULARS. Danvillk, May 15. Additional particulars from Alartinsville of last night's tragedy show that it was oue of the bloodiest encounters that ever took place in the South. The cause of the aiftay was the posting, by Col. P. D. Spencer, a business man and a member of the Town Board, of an an onymous circular reflecting on W. K. Terry and his fatiier, the late William Terry. It is learned this morning that William Terry and Tarleton Brown are mortally wounded. Spencer and the other parties will probably recover All the business houses in Martinsville are closed to day. Forty shots were fired. W. K. Terry was shot in the rear. mv.D&U entering near tne spinG and lougiug in Uie right breast. Jake Terry was shot through the abdoman sHOfDoint-nmnc and, fell dead.

Notwithstand ing this nas been a very dull year, The Sentinel is to be congratulated upon the promptness with which its patrons have come forward and paid their subscriptions. There are still a few who have neglected this impor tant duty either from force of circum stances in some cases, and others from force of habit.

It is our desire that all our subscribers stand on the same footing, and to bring a'oout this resnlt, we make the following offer : We will peesent one of our hand some lithograph crayons of Governor Scales to every subscrilier who be tween now and the 1st of July pays up to January 1st, 1887.

By tins adherance to. business method, we will be relieved of the unpleasant task of reminding our readers of their ai rears, and it will allow us to expend more time and money and energy in improving The Sentinkl, and mak ing it even a more popular newspaper than its present increase in circulation would justify us in believing it to be.
