the drama was enacted more than for
ty-five years ago. Some have, fallen
by the way and our column has been
robbed of some that always met U3 in
our annual gatherings. But as" at
all periods and vicissitudes in our sol-
dier life (except in the very din of

Monroe Cor. Observer, 10th.
Will and Winfred Belk, the two
young wmte men, wanted lor tne
murder of Ben Hunter and the wound
ing of Walter Stack, Monday, came
into town today and surrendered to
he sheriff. They were at once com
mitted to the county jail. Their
statement of the affair was that they
were going along a road in Buford
township when, the came upon Stack
and Hunter in another buggy. Stack
and Hunter jumped out of their bug
gy and opened fire. The Belks re
turned the fire and dashed off without
knowing the result of their shots.
Walter Stack stated that he and

His stomach was pierced by several
shots and two bullet holes, were en
tirely through the head. It is charg

The Bill Board Ordinance.
Mayor Wagoner is to be congrat

victory in passing the bill board
ordinance. The mayor was the au
thor of this ordinance it was first
introduced, when it required that all
posters should be torn down in 24
hours after the performance was pre
sented that they represented. The or
dinance was modified Tuesday night so
as to require that all head lines and
date lines be erased in that length of
time. The mayor would never have
agiired to a compromise except for
the fact that the first ordinance
might be a little severe on the bil
posters. The laavor, ii ;i good many
of 'cur ?: ns, is tire J. of gazing up
on posters representing Paul Gilmore

Tuesday afternoon while Col. Tate
and son and Mr. Hardee, of Tennes-

see, were out in Capt. Charlie JtJen-
nett's boat at Morehead City, trolling
for mackerel, a large whale arose
! -2LS?t A??.!? J.
two mil4 from Morehead City. Capt.
Bennett savs the whale was the fish-
ing species known as fishing whale,
and wai probably following a school
of mackerel. From what the party
could see of the whale the monster
was ' fill v 30 feet long. They think
the boat had just passed over the
whale before it came to the surface,
The whale coming up so near the boat
gave the occupants some fright, but
after it wa3 over they were glad to
have had the unusual experience of
seeing the monster.
