Early Fish Story. Some days ago a young lady lost a valuable ring from her finger while fishing in Roanoke river. Of course she never expected lo see the ring again, yet a remarkable thing has hardened. On Faster Monday a small boy was fishing in the same old place aiid landed a large carp. He was overjoyed and having heard that fish had been known to swal low rings he at once proceeded to cut the fish open with his knife. He was greatly excited when his knife came in contact with a hard substance and the perspiration stood out in beads upon his face. And most wonderful to relate he did not find the ring. "It was a bone," quoth the boy upon the shore, "only this and nothing more." FOR SALE. One-horse Rus sell wagon, good as new, , will be sold at a bargain. Apply to D. R.

THE CHILDREN LIKE, IT KENNEDY'S LAXATIVE COUCH SYRUP ; Bi.ti.d L'p Wli.don. - The ' building of a large ice house here for distributing this necessity, dur ing the summer months, does not mean that we are to play any "freeze out" game. What we i need is to build up Weldon as a j manufacturing and commercial cen ter, and to build it up all the time and every day in the year. In the i lexicon of modern industrial prog- ress there is no such word as sleep for the city that wants to hold its ! own or to beat its rivals. Eternal enterprise is the price of success. Easter Egg Hunts. -Never before in the history of Weldon did the children have such a stren uous day in hunting Easter eggs as they had Monday. They began at 10 o'clock and kept the fun up, going from house to house, all day long, winding up about night. A large number of children enjoyed these hunts and one of the most largely attended was the one held i at tne M. I-.. Church at about 2 o'clock. The children entered en thusiastically into the fun and thor oughly enjoyed each one held at the residences as well as those at the churches. Registration Books Open Saturday. - The registration books will be opened Saturday 17th at Roanoke News' office and remain open up to Saturday night 24th, 9 p. m., for the registration of all qualified voters in the town election, May 4th, who may have become of age since last election, or moved to town since that time, provided your residence has been two years in North Carolina,, six months in Halifax county and four months in the town of Weldon. This is not a new registration, but only for the above-named electors. "Miss Pearl May Bowers and Mr. R, L. Byrd were married at the home of the bride's parents this evening at eight o'clock, Rev. W. A. Piland, of Roanoke Rapids, officiating. The bridal party left for Dunn, N. C, where Mr. Byrd has ac cepted a position. The young couple are followed by the best wishes of their many friends in Rosemaj-y and Roanoke Rapids." j Awful Spring Hats. Rev. Dr. MacArthur in writing of the i new spring hats has this to say: l "The spring hats are the worst ! examples of extravagant fancy gone j mad. They are hideous in design ! and monstrous in execution. They compel the male observer to sigh : for the very big hats of last fall. ! Those seemed then evils scarcely ' endurable, bui fashion has brought us others that we know not of. ! These potlike effects and inverted ; baskets covered with artificial flow ! ers and ptanis that seem to have been derived from the inferno have no beauty at all and make their wearers look like gargoyles." Lei- Litkrary Society. Be- ginning Friday evening, April 16, ! ot an e'epnant, scaring timta uiris the Lee Literary Society will hold ! tians almosI 10 deaih- aild running the first of the preliminary debates i non-Christians away from God to select the debating team for the and the Church- Havin8 a bri8ht commencement week. The ques-1 sunshiny life, as ours, cannot be tion for the debate is "That Coun- j too highly valued, for, are we not trv Life Offers More Advantaees I gladdening hearts all about us? Than Town Life." These pre-j liminary debates will be held until the best four debaters in the So 1 ciety have been selected. Lach ; applicant for the team must debate I both sides of the question. A med ; al will be given the best debater on ' the night of the contest in June. It ' is the plan to make the Literary Society exercises a feature of the close of the school each year. Thf. Rock Fish Hatchery The rock fish hatchery operated by the U. S. Bureau of Fisheries is being put in readiness for anoth er season's work. A special ef fort, we are informed, will be made to collect all the ripe eggs that are taken by fishermen who, under a new plan of work just adopted, will receive more direct benefits than in former seasons, X'e recommend all persons who propose to do any fishing to call on Superintendent Worth and con fer with him on the subject of sav ing the eggs. The continuation of the hatchery after this season is dependent upon the work of this spring. Mr. Worth thinks that many eggs have been lost before that need not be again when the plans of the Bureau are fully un derstood by the fishermen. Mr. Jordan's Money Talked.

DeWITT'S CARB0L1IE0 WITCH HAZEL &ALVE For Pllo, Bum Sor Easter Sunday Easter day was bright and cold and the sum mer girl in light attire looked out of season. The sharp north wind, however, did not prevent large at tendance at church, and in the M. E. Church there was special Easier music which was well rendered and much enjoyed by the large congregation. At the evening service the Bright Jewels rendered a delightful pro gramme of songs, recitations, etc., all the children taking their parts admirably and reflecting great credit upon those who had the i training of the children in hand. The Easier offerings at the va rious churches amounted to quite a considerable sum. For Street Improvements. The town board of commissioners met in special session Monday to hear report of street committee on side walk improvement. All mem- bers of the board were present as follows: Messrs. Cohen, Daniel, Scott, Stainback, Bishop, Shaw, Wiggins. Mayor J. T. Gooch, presided. Street Commissioner Wiggins submitted the bids re ceived for laying of the proposed granolithic side walks, and the bid of the Emporia Concrete Company was accepted at $ 1 .20 per square yard. The board, on motion of Mr.Daniel seconded by Mr.Cohen, empowered the Committee on Streets to proceed at once to make contract for paving side walks on both sides o f Washington av enue between First and Third Streets, and such other streets as may be later agreed upon by the town and property owners. The committee will proceed at once to make the contracts and work on the new side walks will begin with in a few days. HALIFAX LETTER. Items of Interest Gathered by Our Regular Correspondent. (Cor. to the Koasokr Nkms.) Halifax, N. C, April 13. Many of our folks, and some of other people's folks, enjoyed Eas ter Monday. At St. Mark's Sun day morning, the Sunday School enjoyed an Easter egg hunt. On Sunday afternoon at the residence of Mrs. H. W. Gowan, all the smaller children of the town were assembled, and such hunting.peep ing and seeking you never saw, for eggs. The day was one of rare pleasure for them, and, of course, there was pleasure in the hearts of those who made this pleasure pos sible for the little ones, for, argue the matter you will, we only get real pleasure out of this life, by seeking to give to others; then it returns to us with compound inter est. I he Christian s lite should consist of those characteristics, then, that lend happiness, give cheer, comfort, that seeks by various means to reflect the Son's life and light, and 'tis so easy to do, when we accustom ourse'ves to it; it be comes a habit, grows to be a virtue and ceases to be a "cross," that so many of us enlarge to the size One smile is two smiles, when re flected in another face. Rev. J . E. Hutson who has been do ing excellent preaching while here, at the Baptist church, will probably close the meeting on Wednesday evening. The two sermons on Sunday were so expressive of God's love to us-ward, if space were ours, some comments would not seem out of place. Rev. J. E. Holdendid not preach ' Sunday morning, but carried his flock to the Baptist Church to wor ship there. And now we pen the comings and goings of some of our friends since last week. Miss Mary Norman was in Wel don Friday, for an Easter bonnet. J. H. F.ley, of Tunis, spent Sun day and Monday here with friends. Miss Nettie Gilliam came down from Rosemary to spend the holi day with her mother. Mrs. J. H. Bans and children went down to Whitakers Friday, coming buck Sunday on 80. Mrs. Arthur Fountain and chil dren, of Tarboro, left Friday for home after a visit to Mrs. J. h. Fleming. F", H. Westphall was here Sun day to see his family. He left on 80 for Blueficld, W. Va., accompanied by Charles Froelich. There was a marriage at Hotel i Roanoke Monday, the couple com ing from Virginia, Rev. D. E. Vip- permafl ofliciating. 1 he partic ipants being Mr. Fowler and Miss l'attie E .Wells. There was a pic-nic at "Griz zard's mill" Monday, many of our folks going, the smaller aggrega tion being very largely represent ed. Some one said there was no pickle and cake left, and few fish, judging by the tackle that was car ried out of town. W. F. C. State Farm Inspection. Last Thursday Messrs. Norwood, Daughton and Holderness, of the new prison board, visited and in spected the Caledonia Stale farms, near Tillery. There are 7,200 acres on this farm, with over 180 mules and about 300 convicts. It is said to be the best conducted and most thoroughly equipped farm in North Carolina. The new prison board reduced the salaries of the superintendent and clerk because of the fact that the earnings of the penitentiary hereafter cannot be as large as they have been during the past two administrations. The reason assigned for this is that the coun ties are using more convicts on their own roads than ever before, and that the number sentenced to the Stale's Prison is growing small er every year. Superintendent J. J. Laughing house's salary reduced from $3,000 per annum to $2,500. Prison Clerk T. W. Fenner, salary reduced from $2,000 to $1,500.
