The Massechusetts minister has i>een indicted for murder in first pgr^ and jtrial set for January. Great sen^tion will cluster a- wund the hearing. The Manager of the Arcade picture theatre of Durham who showed the Bin ford pictures was fined only one dollar. Seems that the legal side of the situa- ■Mon was not so opposed to the pictures as was thought.

The re mainder of the ci>mpound was sent to a city chemist. The incident haw pointed to a new possibility of the method by whick Mrs-Vermilya worked up on her alleged victims. Representatives of the coroner brought to Chicago fonight parts of the remains of Conductor R. T. Smith who died; of stomach disorder not clearly defined while a roomer at the Vermilya home.

Chicago, Nov. 4.—Mrs. Louise Vermilya, who yesterday was named in a warrant charging murder as a sequel to the deaths of Policeman Arthur Biasonette and eight other persons who in the last eighteen years lived un der her roof, was watched close ly tonight by physicians who feared her death at any time. An incident in her dining today which the police and physicians declare was an attempt by her to commit suicide, by means of poi son mixed with peper, was the cause. When eiggs were served to the woman by the police, nurses who were watching her pending her recovery from an illness, she ob> iectBd jt^: tBe.i)laLck peppier with which the^ were to be seasoned. ‘In the pantry there is some Tobacco Growers: We know that Warehousemen on the small markets promise you “high£St prices.” They mean, their markets; but they do not, ar?,d cannot mean “highest prices,” because they know and we know, and we want you to know, that without keen competitioii, “highest prices” cannot be obtained. The more people there are wanting a thing, the more that that thing will be in bemand. » Now, our buyers want tobacco, they want it because the other fellow wants it, and wants it bad. Our market is not limited to the buyers of the Big Companies^ we have from five to ten times as many Independent Buyers as any other market, and they buy several million pounds annually. To do this, they BID HIGHER than the Big Buyer, and in the meantime they are making the Big Buyer bid up to the “top notch,” on their purchases. That, is the effect of competi tion, and that is why Danville stands pre-eminent as the “Leading Loose Leaf Tobacco MarKet.” Now, don’t take any changes on doing “as well” on some other market, but sell in Danville, and KNOW that you are doing the BEST. The Danville Co-Operative Warehouse Company is the best agency in the Imsiness today for the sale of “Loose Leaf Tobacco.” ' Operatipg six large warehouses, known as Acree’s, Ban ner, Central, Holland’s, Planters and Union, which ar^ un excelled as to location, lights, floor space, and accommoda tions, and conducted by the ablest corps of men ever engag ed in the business, with ample capital, and every known fa cility, we offer you not only “highest market prices, but a CERTAINTY of ‘ Itigber prices” than can be obtained else- vvhere at any time. Every assistance, courtesy and accommodation is personal ly extended to our patroas and friends, both at selling time and crop growing time. We solicit your patronage on these grouuds, and can, and will verify our claims. Your friends truly. Corn, Oats, Meal, feedstuff and cotton seed produGts.
