The Central Falls Manufacturing Company was reorganized here week before last as the Central Manufactur ing Company. J. H. Ferree was elected President, C. P. Frazier, vice- President, and Col. A. C. McAlister, Secretary and Treasurer. T. H. Full er, A. H. Johnson. John Dorsett and Jesse Frazier were elected directors. The officers of the company were au thorized to lease the property. The physicians were hastily sum moned on Friday last to attend a fam ily named Riddle, at Roberdel mills, every member of which, six persons, had been attacked with violent sick ness, the symptoms being the same as would follow an immoderate dose of tartar emetic. Some of them, exhaust ed by the attack, were delirious, and all of them seemed critically ill on arrival of the doctors. Prompt treatment was beneficial in each case and as yet none have died. The family had dined on peas ofthe variety known as the “lady pea,” but to determine the positive cause has puzzled the doctors.—Pocket. Our sanctum is now adorned with one of Prof. Johnson’s new maps. It is handsomely gotten up and remark ably accurate. Not only is it inde- spensable to the stranger who wishes to know any thing about the county but it is full of information for those who have lived here all their lives Prof. Johnson has succeeded in exe cuting a work for which he deserves the thanks of every citizen in the county and we are glad to learn that his map is meeting with ready sales. It takes well because no family can afford to be without it. In a very short time he has sold about a hund red in one township and he proposes to publish what township buys the most. The sad intelligence of the death of Mrs. J. H. Millis of High Point will be received with sincere regret by her many friends in this county. She passed away quietly at her home on the 7th of May after a short illness. Pneumonia, the dread disease, that has proved so fatal this year, began its deadly work on the 29th of March and was too powerful for the physi cian’s skill. And on the 15th, just eight days after the death of Mrs. Millis, her mother, Mrs. N. W. Walker, widow of the late Jesse Walker, died at the same place and from the same disease. Both were buried in the Methodist cemetery at Randleman, where a large concourse of sympathizing friends gathered to pay a last tribute to the dead. These estimable ladies were alike exemplary in all the relations of life and their death is mourned by a wide circle of relatives and friends in this and other counties. THE STATE NORMAL SCHOOL to be held at Winston this year will open on the 23rd of June and close 16th of July. Prof. J. L.

The Normall will he held in the new Graded School Buildings, recently erected at a cost of $26,000, and considered the hand somest and best appointed in the State. Winston-Salem is full of both his toric and present interest. Her nu merous and varied manufacturing and industrial enterprises will be both in teresting and instructive to all who may visit them. This, together with the well known reputation of Mr. Tomlinson as an organizer and con ductor of Normal Schools, will doubt less insure a large attendance of teachers.
