Head the ad. of the new Racket toro. Co and see the beautiful -tods that can be purchased at just .simply a price. There will be service in the chapel at "White Hall, next Sunday afternoon, at three o'clock, conducted by Kev. W. G. Campbell. Not many people from the coun trv are coming into town now: every body busy on the farm. Let us wish our farmer friends much success. It has been said that the town horse is quite deaf. This is verified by the fact that Norman Moore .-peaks to him in a very emphatic manner. Neither the voung nor the old j ran escape t lie mumps, a. roil, ha? ; of just recovered from an attack oi the anti-vinegar ami anti- -agar monopoly. No. 10 was well represented in town on Wednesday by the "horny listed" fanners. They reported farm work progressing quite favorably in their immediate section. The series of meetings begun at nie Methodist church last week still i-oniinue and much interest is mani i et ed. Rev. Mr. Bum pass is very popular with his congregation. -On Wednesday the Episcopal ! Sunday-school enjoyeu a pieasanr R. E. Gibson's vard. pio-nie in Mr, 'ake. ice-cream, etc., added conside rably to the pleasure of the young people. Another one gone! William I leiiry Harrison Mason, who recently opened a racket store near the Mor ris house, racketed out to parts un l.nown at the "wee snuv hours" last Tuesday night. We learn from a private letter that the school at China Grove is in a nourishing condition. Prof. Clinc, a-sisted by Miss Maggie Fisher in the music department, is doinjr a goo. I and great work. Our accented type failing to get la-re in time prevents our Volapuk ditor from giving the first lesson in the new universal language in this issue. The lessons will appear reg ularly after this week. There" will be a joint service of the Lutheran and Presbyterian con gregations at the Presbyterian church next Sunday night, conducted by Rev. W. G. Campbell, pastor of St. James Lutheran church, The Concord Cornet Band, of vhieh we are proud, is itself again. The music furnished by this band at the entertainments given last week by the Meyer-Thorne Comedy Com pany M as simply splendid. The article on the third page of our last issue, under the head of ''Cabarrus and Stanly Railroad," by an oversight failed to have the sig nature of a communication. We make this explanation in justice to our correspondent. Even. at this early day a goodly number of our young people are planning trips to mountains, sea shore, mineral springs, commence ments, &.C. It is nothing but the inevitable power and influence of Cnpid that is causing all this fuss. " Where there is a will there is a ft ay " has lost nothing by age. He l ved her, she loved him, but the money for the legal papers was to hunt. The dusky damsel broke the 1 a t rier by assisting her " me darling " in hi schopping-cord-wood-enterprise and Dinah is happy now ! On last Thursday a part of the brick hands who were engaged to go to Charlotte to make brick for the new cotton factories to be erected t here, struck our depot about dinner time, and feeling as if their inner inau needed a little bracing up, went to Hough's machine shop and appro priated to themselves Clarence Gro ncr's dinner. The Mecklenburg Presbytery convened at Sugar Creek church on Wednesday. It is largely attended and the exercises are of a very inter esting nature. This presbytery was organized on October 16th, 1869, with sixteen ministers. Of the num ber present at the organization only two will be present, Revs. Dr, Miller and R. Z. Johnston. Joseph Cook, Esq., of No. 4, although seventy-two years of age, started Tuesday on a visit to his brother in Arkansas. How many families in Cabarrus are not repre sented in some of the Southern and Western States by relatives? No wonder that we occasionally hear good things from that part of the moral vineyard. Railroad ! "The backbone of winter is broken." The days hours Ion sr. are now over twelve "Sol" will please accept thanks for contributions. our What think von of the Cabarru , ! in and Stanly railroad movement ? Now is the golden opportunity. Esquire F. V. Barrier and his brother Davis, of No. 5, each plant ed five acres of cotton on last Tues day week, the 2d. A prettier day could not be de sired than last Sunday. Our churches were attended by unusually large numbers of people. The apple trees present a beau tiful picture. Even the ladies are appropriating the blossoms to the purpose of pleasing their gentlemen friends. The usual spring complaint can now be heard on every side, " I al ways feel bad in spring." This is another name for the evil effect of increasing warmth. Already the average small boy is hobbling along with a big toe bundled up or a nail hole in his heel. Its hard on the feet, but a great sav ing in leather and yarn. Concord Presbytery convened at Franklin, near Salisbury, on the 12th. Concord Presbyterian church was represented by Rev. C. M. Payne and F. A. McNinch. We have never seen brighter prospects for an abundant grain crop. The whole county joins in this ver dict, lhe eleventh hour, however, often witnesses a sad change, but Ave hope this year will be an exception. A. G. Lentz received from E. D. Lentz and Mrs. R. A. Barrier, of No. 8 township, someaiice young beef cattle this week. No. 8 is fully up to the idea of raising the necessi ties of life in preference to a big cotton crop. Dr. Archey, Messrs. R. A. Brown and William Propst have been ap pointed an executive and building committee of the parsonage to lie built tor the pastor or the Laihteran church. They will commence work at once on the parsonage. . Sheriff Propst tells us that there are now only four prisoners in jail, all colored. "All are able-bodied men, and the services of such fellows, under the superintendence of a good and energetic guard, are sadly needed on our public roads. Is it practicable ? Quite an interest is being mani fested in the organization of a class for the study of Volapuk, the uni versal language, as the name im- j plies. It is being propagated in every known country. lruiy it is tne greatest wonder of the nineteenth centurv. The wife of Mr. J. F. Miseuhi mer, of No. 5, was seriously burton Tuesday by the attack of a vicious cow. The lady was unexpectedly knocked to the ground and pawed, butted and otherwise injured to such an extent as to render her uncon scious. Though badly bruised, her injuries are not fatal. Barn Bitrnlnsr. We learn through parties from that section that some time ago a barn located near Gold Hill, and be- longing to Dr. Rufus Shimpoch, was set on fire. It is saifl to have been a most excellent building of its kind, and being filled with roughings, corn, &c, together with reapers, mowers and other farm machinery, the loss is a considerable one. A few days afterwards Henry Glover, a white man fifty years old, and his son, aged twenty-one, were talking with a man whom they thought a bitter enemy to the owner, and among other things said : " We give it to his old barn the other night." This lead to their being suspected of hav ing burned the barn. They are now in jail. They Got lft. On Monday Messrs. Luther Brown and Len Erwin, our enterprising livery men, had quite a sudden in troduction to the solidity of mother earth. While driving a " new " horse one line broke, with no result other than to warrant an increased speed. Holding on to the remaining line, the horse ran on to a bank, giv ing the buggy a rather inclined road, all of which amounted to a con glomerated spill of our friends. Er win escaped with a slight bruise on the face, while Brown being caught between Erwin and the earth suf fered a minute or two for the want of breath, &c. All is quiet along the Potomac! A Hen That is a lien. Yon Bet ! The mission of a hen is quite ob vious. To lay eggs should be her " specialty," and the better she fol lows this the greater the glory to cluster around her henship. That the hen lay no golden eggs nor gives to her owner more than one per day, all in these days are ready to admit ; but there are exceptions to all rules. Mr. P. M. Faggart keeps chickens, but none of your one-horse kind. They neither go on a " strike " nor require driving up hill. A further description cannot be given here, but to prove that they are everlasting layers we need but to cite you to the record of one hen : In four days she returned, for her feed, eight " large eggs. This is as true as truth itself, as Mr. F. is ready to testify to the statement. Concord in Arms. Concord is by no means contented. The many improvements, enterprises, institutions and organizations for good which she now enjoys fall far short of satisfying the restless and active spirit that is peculiarly char acteristic of her people. In pursuance of a call published The Standard last week a goodly number of young men met in the court-house Tuesday night for the purpose of organizing a military company. Rev. W. G. Campbell was elected temporary chairman, and Jas. P. Cook secretary and treasurer, after which the above officers were made permanent.

Everything passed off agreeably, all entering earnestly into the business ot the The company ad journed to meet in j the court-house Monday night at 8 1 o'clock, sharp. !

Mr. Albert Gillon, who was com pelled to discontinue his studies at Davidson College some time since on account of some trouble with his eyes, returned Tuesday from Balti more, where he had them treated, much benefited. A Clone Call. John Palmer, colored, who makes well-cleaning a specialty, has reason to congratulate himself, inasmuch as he very luckily escaped being buried alive. Getting to the bottom of a thirty-foot well, near the factory, he discovered a loose place in the wall. John became uneasy, and asked to be drawn out. Just as he reached the top the whole wall, as with an earthquake jar, caved in. Township Primaries.

March 19th, 1888, Death of Major Miller. We regret to learn of the death of Maj. John Miller at his home in Jefferson, S. C, which occurred a few days since. Major Miller was well known in Eastern Cabarrus, where he had many warm friends who will regret to learn of his death, lie was one of the most prominent citizens of his county, and though a man of- many summers, he was ac tive and zealous in every interest, whether public or private.

Beginning tonight, aud every Friday night hereafter, the band will give a free concert at Reed's Park (pond.) A grand stand has been constructed in the centre of the pond for the band. You see, many of the mem bers are yet without an helpmeet, and the others flatter themselves that I they still possess charms, in view of which they desired to place them selves beyond any of leap year's dan gers. Let us all pick up and go! Meeting; of St. John's Fair Association The Association met on last Sat urday, the President, H. C. McAllis ter in the chair. The minutes of last meeting weie read.

Ludwig, Sec'y. OBITl'ARY. Mrs. Fannie T. Swerengan was born August 7, 1831, and died April 6, 18S8, aged 2G years, seven months and twenty-nine days. The deceas ed attended a thorough course of catechetical instruction under Rev. R. W. Pt trea; and in October 1879, was confirmed in St. John's Evan gelical Lutheran church, Cabarrus county. Some time afterwards she, with her husband, moved her mem bership to Cold Water, where she continued to live a christian life, and I in Ler dying moments expressed a poaceful hopa in the doctrine of he Saviour. She leaves bereaved pa- rents, a brother, a sorrowing hus band, three small children, and a lai ge number of relatives and friends, all to mourn their irreparable loss. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. S. L. Keller. Died in Concord, N. C, April 2d, 18S8, James Johnston, infant son of Mr. and Mrs. John C. Wadsworth, aged 10 months and 25 days. This preciouslittle darling was just loaned awhile to earth. The loving Saviour has taken him into his own loving arms and it is well worth the child. May the Comforter bind up the bro ken hearts and bles3 this great sor row to the sadly bereaved. "It is well ! nor would we the babe recall, And soothing and sweet are the t ears that fall, But a few brief months on his moth er's breast, And we lay him down, in his holy rest, Ere the world its snares around him threw, Or its sins and its cares he ever knew." Pastor. Accidental Shooting. On last Monday morning, while Mr. Hiram Cowan, near Verble P. O., this county, was ploughing, he heard the report of a gun, and at the same time felt the stinging sensations of shot entering his body. Medical attendance was at once summon ed and thay found over twenty No. 6 bird shot in his body, three of which had penetrated his lung. The physicians say that if nothing seri ous occurs Mr. Cowan will live. Twelve shot struck the horse. Ac cording to Mr. Cowan's statement his oldest son was in some brush near where Hiram was ploughing, and the gun went off accidentally. There was no bad feeling between father and son and the son was very much prostrated by grief and sorrow over the unfortunate occurrence. Mr. Cowan is 40 years old, and has four children; the son is 18 years old, and Tuesday evening, overcome by fear and sorrow, left home and has not been heard from since. Salisbury Herald. m a Sad Death of a Young Lady. Miss Katie Hudson having been converted last Wednesday night at the meeting now being carried on by Rev. Mr. Pearson at Wilmington, went home complaining of a pain in her finger. It was not long until she had a violent case of meningitis, from which she died three days af terwards. It is a sad death of a popular young lady, who was just blooming into sweet womanhood. FROM THE DIFFERENT TOWNSHIPS St. John's Items. The beautiful Easter service, "Portals of Glory," was most hap pily rendered by the Sabbath school at St. John's on the 8th iust. before a large and interested audience.

A blind horse, a drunken man and a sleeping girl were the elements of a tragedy which occurred on the turnpike Wednesday night. The man is a white man named J. L. Brock and the girl, now dead, was named Rosanna McDaniel. It seems that Brock, who resides at Greenville Sound, had been into the city during the day with fish, and Rosanna McDaniel, the deceased, aged 13, and her sister, Mary Jane, aged 18, residents of Wrigtsville, had been'here to sell oysters. At about 7 o'clock they met Brock in a cart at the corner at Market and Fourth streets and he offered to car ry them home. They got into the cart and soon fell asleep. At a point a short distance beyond the first mile post on the turnpike, the girls were rudely awakened by the cap sizing of the cart. The blind horse left to his own guidance, had gone into the ditch at the side of the road, in which there was about two feet of water, Mary Jane alighted on the bank and Rosanna on her head in the ditch and when she was pulled out she was dead by drowning. Wilmington Review. Maj. Clement Dowd has just been appointed receiver of the late State National Bank, of Raleigh. 4'oUon Mills In the South. The New England cotton mill own ers must keep their weather eye open and watch a new movement in the Southwest. The people down yonder are begin ning to reason arnoug themselves. They say, in substauce, We grow the cotton and send it up North to be made into cloth, and after that we have to bay the cloth. Then ther put their thinking caps on and ask, Why can't we build mills of our own and pocket the profits of manufact ure ourselves? The answer came in the shape of two well-equipped establishments in New Orleans. It was an experiment, of course, and the dollars went into the speculation with some timidity. But the spirit of competition was vigorous and the love of an honest penny honestly earned prevailed. Then a big building was put in Wes son, Miss., for the same purpose. Well, the venture was an admirable success m bctn instances. Tne Wesson company is going to put up another mill because the demand for its product Las greatly increased, and the New Orleans people will soon follow suit. During the next twenty or thirty years the South will give us a pretty lively shaking up. Before the war, you know, they never dreamed of stripping for the l'ace, and we had it all our own way. But the times have changed, and the men of the South have changed with them. Now, what with their iron mines, and their coal mines, and their new methods of agriculture, and their shrewd entei prise, and their com mercial daring, we shall have to draw our belts a little tighter and strike a livelier gait, or well, what of it? This is a free country, and a bi? and rich country, and there is room enough for generous rivalry to get a good deal of exercise and make a good deal of money. New York Herald. A 81,600,000 Striker. Shamokin, Penn., April 8. James Bailey of this city has fallen heir to $1,600,000, left him by his uncle, William C. Munsou, of Newport, Eng. Bailey has a wife and seven children, and for the past four months has missed many a meal to appease the hunger of the little ones. He went on strike with the rest of the Philadelphia & Reading men in January, and did not secure his place when the strike was de clared off. He was compelled to ask aid from the poor district. This morning he received a letter from anattornej' in England inform ing him of his lucky windfall. Bai ley, 20 years ago, was his deceased uncle's private secretary in Eng land. Falling in love with a comely young sewing girl, he married her, despite his uncle's earnest protest and threats of disinheritance. After the marriage he and the bride bade adieu to England, sailed for the United States and came to the coal regions, whei-e he has since lived. When Bailey was apprised of his uncle's legacy, he simply remarked : '"Well, this morning we had bread and water for breakfast, and for dinner we'll eat chicken for the first time in many months." Next week the ex-coal digger will sail with his family for England to take posses sion of his riches. He is an intelli gent man, 58 years old, and enjoys good health. Xo Bail. No bail has yet beeD given for Messrs. White and Cross and they still remain in custody. Further ru mors were circulated here yester day that friends of Mr. Cross in Gates county had agreed to go upon his bond, but there was apparently no foundatien for the report. Many seem to think that Mr. Wliite's bond will be made up by his friends here, but it has not been done. Col. Tate held a consultation with the prison ers in the jail yesterday. Col. Tate informed our reporter yesterday that he now felt sure that depositors would be paid as much as seventy five cents on the dollar. News and Observer. ytr. Pearson In Wilmington. Mr. Pearson's sermon on Sunday night was on faith. It was a great effort, and many think it the best of all. It- was intensely interesting, full of instruction, replete with com mon sense, very strong intellectually, and as clear as light. It was great preaching. A vast congregation heard it. The sermon last night on the Prodigal Son was very tender, mellow, pathetic and convincing. It won many souls to Christ, we may believe. There was forty- tbree pro fessions. On Sunday night there were forty-one professions and nine re clamations. Up to last night there had been in all 692 professions and 217 backsliders reclaimed total 900. WTlmington Star.
