ford claims were the result of pecu
liar circumManceaj The old hoard of
commissioners who went into office
in January, .'.s;7, were Democratic
in politit-s; as is well kno-jvu, two
Tactions exist in that party in this
-county, the one headed by Dr. D,
M. Crawford, and the'other led by
Dr. Lucieu Banks. In a contest
let ween these two doctors, the lead
ers of their respectie factions for
the position of jail physician, the
vonlest lecanie so hot that the com
missioners could not make a choice
and to relieve themselves they in
vited from these two leaders, com
petitive bids. In the bidding that
followed. Dr. Crawford came off
victor, he having agreed to do the
work and furnish the nei'essary
medical supplies for the annual
salary of nothing. A contract was
--'--xecuted to this effect, except that
the consideration to le received by
Dr. Crawford was to 1e one dollar
per annum instead of nothing, for
the reason that to make a valid
contract there must be a considera
tion moving from the jmrfy receiv
ing the work to the party doing the
work. For two years this contract
was scrupulously fulfilled, but last
year the commissioners with the
consent of Dr. Crawford reconsid
ered the resolution accepting'con
traet of ft per annum for medical
services and resolved to pay the
said Dr. ffiO for services for year
1809. They also purchased from
M. P. Crawford, drug supplies,
it is alleged, siich a were contract -ed
to lie furnished by Dr. Crawford
tinder his i-ontract.
The Auditors having refused to
allow the County Commissioners
credit for the sums stated above,
the Commissioners owe it to tbera
arlvers and their friends to act
promptly, and ither appeal from
the . finding of the Auditors and !
have the matter determined by the
Court or settle the matter at once
by making payment to the proper
authorities of the Hums they are
Fiircharaed with. The future of
these men will not justify them in
entering dilatory pleas, etc. As it

A MUM Alt BUTCHER 11UHC
On the 3rd day of January a
young human 'jbntcher aged 20
years, Edward Cressinger was
hung in the jail yard at Sunbury,
Northumberland county for the
mnnler of Miss Daisy Smith aged
lit years. The murder was com
mitted, in one of her father's fields,
X.-toler 10. 1.S9S She had leen
sent to the field to gather feru to
use iu the making ot medicine for
a sick horse. The young liend who
lived on an adjoining farm tells
how he committed the butchery in
a confession thus:
"I, Ed. Cressinger, do voluntar
ily make this, my statement and
confession, and have not leen
promised any favors, having mad
the same voluntarily, as my con
nection with the murder of Daisy
Smith on the 10th day of October,
l.s'JS. After 1 came back from the
stoie about 10 or 11 o'clock a. in.,
I got my gun and two loaded shells.
Then I went up in the woods. 1
had my dog with me; he was hunt
ing around for rabbits. Then I
shot to call my dog; then Daisy
Smith came there. She told me I
would get arrested for hunting
rabbits there. 1 went right tip to j
where she was and told her I was
iift hunting for rabbits there. I

Then I got to quarreling with her
and she slapped me. Then I just
held np my gun and shot her, le
ing away about thirty yanls. She
hollered, then I killed her; I cut
her throat, she wobbled around a
couple of steps, and fell over. Then
I went home.
RESCUED FROM FILIPINOS
There is rejoicibg at Manila among
the Americans over the recovery nf
Lieutenant J. C. Gillmore of the
United States erunboat Yorktown.
Last April the Lieutenant, and 19
men while ashore were eapfcnred bv
the Filipinos and carried inland.
Durin? many days it was thonght
they had been killed but thePi'ipino
did not kill them. They kept them
as prisoners and at Inst when hard

We had

down the stream along a roucrh trail,
guarded by a company of Filipinos
That night we were separated from
this guard and another Company,
armed with Mausers, was put in
charge of us. I suspected some
thing and questioned the lieutenant '
in command. He said: 'I have or- ;
ders from General Tino to shoot you
all, but my conscience" forbids. 1

"I begged him for two rifles to
protect us from savages, adding that
I would give him letters to th
Americans, who would piy him woll
and keep him from all harm. H
refused this, however, saying that he
would not darn to comply. Soon af
terward he left with his company.
"We had seen some savages in war
paint around us, and we prepared to
fight them with cobblestones, the on- j
lv weapons that were available to us.
Tbe next, morning we followed the
trail of the Filipino soldier?, feeling
that it was better to stick to them
than to be murdered by savages, but.

Then I ordered the men to build
rafts in the hope of floating down tbe
river. It was a forelorn hope, but I
knew the river must enter into the
sea "Somewhere. I was so weak my-.
self that I did not expect to get out,
bnt I thought some of the men could. ;
MOo the morning of December 18,
while we were working on th rafts,
the Americans came towards us yell-;
ing. One of my men shouted: 'They I
are on up!' He was lashing a raft of :
bamboos. L however, knew it was
not the yell of savages, bnt the yell
of Americans. Tbe rescning troops
thought wo had Filipino guards and
callnd to us in English to lie down
so that they could shoot the Filipi
nos. That was tbe finest body of of
ficers and men I ever saw."
Lieutenant Gillmore could not
speak enthusiastically enough about
the 140 picked men who had rescued
him and his party.
