The semi annual convention of the Sjuuilay Sellout workers of Brinkleyville township was held at Ringwood the 23rd. The day was beautiful and the attendance was large fur a work day Thursday. It is comforting and encouraging to see the Lord's people clinging to Him and doing their best at all times to gloii fy Him. I will say that Warreu and Nash counties were represented in the convention, members of the medical pro fession, lawyers, merchants, farmers, preachers, and Sunday school superin tendents, men, women and children were there. Seven out of the eight churches iu tho Sunday school convention of the township were represented, all sending contributions. Four preachers of differ ent denominations were present and gave help and encouragement. Dinner in abundance was served in a large and beautiful oak grove. The next conven tion goes to Central Cross M. K. church, Knlield township tho largest in the county is to hold its convention nt Uawsons X Roads' Baptist church the lib Sunday in June. Littleton township is getting ready for its convention at Littleton and I do sincerely trust that each towuehip president in Halifax coun ty will hold a convention before the mid dle of July, as the convention comes off at Halifax a little later on.

A Forfeited Game Harrison's aggregation crossed bats with the Insti tute fur the third gamu of the series at Base Ball Park Monday, aud as both sides claim the game, we think it best that they play it again.

The third re sulted iu placing the Institute boys ahead by a score of G to 5. After this the In stitute pulled further ahead by making the figures read 13 to 9.

The free coinage of silver II! to 1, fusion, nor the single standard were the issues discussed. The one, all overshad owing question was "llow shall we secure husbands?" Prior to the meeting of the conven tion the famous Peak sisters, of Alaska, appeared upon the rostrum and delighted the large audience present with their lit tle song of iuquiry about a certain "Muffin Man," and other selections. The convention was then called to order, after one of the ladies had been "rocked to sleep," the president, Angelina Elcctriifina Hypnostria Clark, (Miss Annie Travis) presiding. The secretary July Polly Flipps, (Miss Jessie Gregory) then read the minutes of the last meeting and called the roll. The following dele gates answeied to their names: Elvira Skiddle iue-faddle (Miss Kate Prescott); Jemima Buuip (Miss Elbe Sater); Sami'utha Whoop em-up, (Mrs. Calhoun); Glory Ann July Nebby Ciu derelly Annabclla Green (Miss Elizabeth Gregory); Edith May Pinkie Peachie Rosy Lissy Brown (Miss MeNauiura); Hannah Susanna Sugarham (Miss Mb Malum); Belinda Bluegrass (Miss Fannie Sater; Tryphcnia Tryphonia Fling (Miss Hill); Sallie Skecters (Miss Cooper); Tilda Smoots, (Miss Susie Hill); Marian Francis Rose Beauty Spot Temptation Touch me not, (.Miss Helen Daniel); Celeslia Paulina Carolina Louisa Miffkins (Miss Nelson.) Each of the delegates gave their ex perience in the cllorls they bad made to capture husbands. The audience was fa Tored with a "duct" by Miss Elvira Skid-dle-nie fuddle' and a quartet! by "three" old maids. The business of the conventiou being over, the rejuvenating machine, which was warranted by the inveutor to giind up old maids and turn out young "iris iu their stead, was introduced by the inven tor and to prove its merits she exhibited two lovely specimens, who had foimerly been old maids of no uncertain age. The old maids then entered the machine one by one and pretty soon bright, happy little girls began to roll out, to the aston ishment of all, and this wound up the convention. The Halifax people have great talent for unique eutertainments and the Old Maids' Convention will be remembered as one of their most pleas ing performances. Refreshments wcie served the visitors in the hall by the ladies of Weldon after the convention was over. The cntertaiument was for the benefit of the Episcopal church here and the ladies and gentlemen of Halifax have the thanks of this town for the delightful entertainment afforded, as well as for the pecuniary benefits received.
