Camp Cuba Libre and Panama Park are among the prominent camp grounds of Unole Sam, and they are not without their illua- trious patriots Gen. Fitzhugh Lee and Col. William Jennings Bryan, Last night a grand ovation and pub- lie demonstration took place in front of the Windsor Hotel, when Lee re- ceived Bryan and miewed the "Sil- ver Third," or Nebraska troops. A general introduction of Bryan and staff to Lee and Btaff, the military ordeal and the band concert com- prised the ceremonies, and - despite the great clamor for Bryan to speak, the famous Nebraskan was heedless. aay . lieutenant (Rev.)

He is threatened with fever, but was granted a furlough. The regimental canteens continue to do immense business, catching the odd nickels of the soldiers. The eanction of the United States gov- ernment for. the conducting of such a nuisance among the camps of its subjects is a black eye to civilization and a step backward. The evil results are keenly felt throughout the division. A division of the profits, however, has provided us with a comfortable mess tent and an Occasional Change Of food.

There seems to be no doubt but the buildiner was set on fire. Par- ties living near the building heard aome noige which seemed sua picion3.. Besides, the lamp which waa atationed on a corner near there was found near the building, There is no known clue as to the parties. The building was insured for $4,000 and the furniture for $500.

This young man Oprey was drunk and very disorderly on the streets here one Sunday after noon, ana rather than .have him lie in jail until rurt the latter three went onhis bond for appearance at court. But Oprey did not stay un til ourt and lefc his bondsmen holding tbe bag. The case of the State vs Mary Moore and Eh Kennedy, for an affray, was dismissed. State vs Dan Moore. The case was continued on account of the absence of the prosecuting witness. Continued on the recognizance of the defendant. State vs Lon Morton, larceny. Continued on motion of defendant Mrs. C A Thomason vs W J Thomason, action for a divorce Divorce granted the plaintiff. Father of Twenty-Two Children. Quite a number of people will be surprised and will doubt the state ment, when we say that there is a maa in our town who is the father of 22 children, but that man is now living at Forest Hill and will in a few weeks move to Albemarle, where his family will be employed in the new mills there. The gentle man referred to is Mr. Wm. E Furr, He has been married twice. The first time he married a Miss Furr, of Stanly county, who was distantly related to him. He became the father of 13 children by his first wife. She afterwards died, and he then married Miss Elizabeth Dunn, of Union county. By his second wife he became the father of 9 more children, which made his total number of children 22. The young est one of his children is now six years old. Mr. Furr has reached the age of 66 years, while his wife is 49 years old. Seventeen of his children only are now living one in Texas, two in Arkansas, and the remaining number, he says, are scattered over Cabarrus and- Stanly counties. Mr. Furr, we think, can boast of being the father of the largest family in Cabarrus county. IVINTKTII IN1 -v A Na w w --- w w y- -w-lPClTn ONE LOT of Lawn worth 10 to goat 5 cents.
