This should be clearly seen from

that lie considered as worthy of

Miss Cora Peeler was married
to Mr. Will Bairie; and her sis-
uer, iviiss Agnes feeler, was
married to Mr. Lawson McCombs
Sunday morning at 9:30 o'clock
by their pastor, Rev. J M L
Lyerly. After the ceremony and
many congratulations, dinner
was announced, and the writer

Lady the Second Time-His First Wife
Found to be living, Hence He Sought
a Divorce from Her.
There is rather a singular case
in our county now somewhat
similar to onle which appeared in
one of the New York papers
quite a while ago, involving a
lady in an adjoining county.
The case of which we speak is
that of Mr. W S Craver, who
lives out at the Balamill. Quite a
number of years ago he married
a lady. They became separated
and after a considerable period
of time, having reasons to think
that his wife 'was dead, he mar

He condemned the conduct not
because he thought those "'"en
gaged' in it were members of
the Knights of Pythias, but be
cause he thought it was worthy
things that had been prepared
for the occasion. There was a
host of friends and relatives
present to witness the occasion.

Aguinaldo Surrounded and His Son
Captured. r
The best news from the Philip
pines is that our. troops have
Aguinaldo surrounded and have
captured his son, who is His sec
retary.
Considerable amounts of pro
visions have been captured.
Our troops are pressing the
enemy vigorously amid much
disadvantage in ' the way of
swampy, bad roads and Gen.
Otis says the enterprise and the
indomitable will displayed by
the officers was never excelled.
. Secretary Root is delighted
with the situation.
There is reasonable hope that
Aguinaldo will be captured.
Much demoralization prevails
as indicated by prisoners and
deserters.

The New Rule in Effect Here.
It was noted in the China
Grove correspondence Monday
that the new system of night j
wox'k had commenced in the Pat- j
terson mill there, whereby the
operatives do not work until al
most midnight on Saturday
night, but end their week's work
early Friday morning, neverthe
less get pay for :six days; - To
some this seems a new rule but
such a one has been effect in the
Cannon and Cabarrus mills for
two weeks. The new plan is
proving satisfactory. ;;
The Central Office Open These Sights.
During these few nights when
it is probable that we will have
the shower of meteors, Mr.
Lester Coltrane has made
arrangements for a person to
stay at the Central office and in
case the shower commences the
bells to the residences will be
rung. So listen -now for your
bell one of these nights.
