Observer. Eiirtliqunke JInil:iy. Monday- about two o'clock in the afternoon several of our citizens felt a distinct earthquake shock which lasted for a few seconds. It was very slight here and shook only a few" houses perceptibly. It seems that the shock was nearly all over the country, east of the Mississippi river, from the telegraphic reports in yes terday's papers," and that it was moving from the south-east to "lOVlUg llOIIl 111 north-west. At no place was but little damage done. At Knoxville, Tennessee, two chim- neys are reported to have been thrown to the ground and the city pretty badly shaken. The shock was perceptibly felt al through the States of Georgia, South Carolina, Ten- nessee, Kentucky, Ohio, Indi- iri:..: tr: ana, vv est v ngiuiu, v ligiiiici, North Carolina and in some sec tions of nearly all the States east of the Mississippi. At no point wras it severe but in some places the inhabtants wrere bad ly frightened. At Raleigh it is reported that it was severe enough to shake brick from jbhe top of chimneys. At some places it was accom panied by a roaring sound which lasted for about a min ute. Many places report a sec ond shock which was percepti bly felt by many. In Dunn it was so slight that very few took any cognizance of it and only thought about it when 'others commenced to talk of it. Watches, Clocks, Jewelry and Spectacles repaired by Gainey & Jordan.

Un last Thursday morning at 9 o'clock quite a number o oundav . school workers and scholars of the different Sun day schools of the town, left on an excursion trip for Rhodes Mill, a most pleasant resort and there spent the day. I was a day appropriate for the occasion one of the lovelies of the season. By 11 6'clock a, good crowd had gathered be neath the shade near the pond All arrived safe and sound though some of the more for tunate ones claimed that they came through on second-class tickets. After promenading and boat-riding for two . hours, which seemed to be greatly en loyed dinner was announced and after prayer by Rev. E. C bell, all leasted. tor nan an hour on the danties spread be fore them prepared by the good ladies. After all were fully satisfied several basketsful re mained. rienty lor an and some left. At 2 o'clock all were seated beneath the majestic oaks that furinshed such de lightful shade, to hear the speaking. The orators chosen for the occasion were Rev. E. C. Sell, Messrs D. H. McLean and J. C Clifford, all of whom delivered excellent speeches for the Sunday school cause. In deed it was an intellectual feast. After the speaking was over few attempts were made to catch fish but were unsucessful, it being just for that particular da"y a time for fishing on land. Whether the latter was success ful or not time only can tell. When the shades of the even ing, were falling the tired and happy pic-nicers turned their faces homeward fondly dream ing of the delightful day spent on the banks of Rhodes Mill. Health and happiuess are relative condition?; at any rate, there can be little happiceps without health. To 2nve the bodv its full measure of strength and energy, the blood should be kept pure atd vigrou by the use of Ayer's Sarsaparil la. Died. William Edgus, the little son of Mr. and Mrs. E. T. Byrd, of Bunnlevel, N. G.y was born April 18th,' 1895 and died May 18th, 1897. God seeing where the little baby could glorify him more perfectly in heaven than on earth called him home to forever live with him. The child was the idol of all who knew him. His little -place will be hard to fill. He was the brightest child the writer ever saw and was devoted to his parents although so young. God bless this dispensation of his providence to the good of the family. "Mother, father, do not weep I have onlj gone to sleep;. If you'll trust God and be brave We will meet beyond the grave." S.
