Sandlin, who was arrested at the Goshen Grove crate factory, near here, Friday and was brought here and placed in the guard-house for safe keeping until the next morning. He was arrested on a warrant charging him with assault and bat tery with a deadly weapon a few weeks ago in a difficulty with Mr. L. G. Atkinson, the railroad agent at Verona, on the Wilmington and Newborn Railroad. Sandlin cut Mr. Atkinson across the throat with a knife and came dangerously near killing him. Mr. Atkinson was laid up quite awhile, and he is just get ting able to be out agaiu. After making the murderous as sault on Mr. Atkinson, Sandlin made his escape and has been working at the crate factory until his arrest. A Woman Causes Murder. James Hutchins, a constable of Norfolk county, Va., is a prisoner in the county jail at Portsmouth upon the charge of murder. Robert J. Shaw, a clerk in the Seaboard Air Line Railroad offices, is his alleged victim. Particulars of the shooting are meagre. It is understood that Hutchins, returning home unexpect edly Sunday afternoon, found Shaw there and shot him twice, one bullet entering the heart, while the other penetrated the brain. Immediately after the shooting Hutchins surren dered to a justice of the peace and was locked up in jail. Shaw, who is 27 years old, is a native of Littleton, X. C, and leaves a wife and five children. Deceased was a son of Mr. Jesse Shaw, the proprietor of Shaw Springs, near Littleton. The shoot ing is said to have been caused by Shaw's visits to Mrs. Hutchins. Hard on Tobacco I'inhookers. A ruling has just been made by the Commissioner of Internal Revenue that has created consterna tion in the loose tobacco markets everywhere. His decision holds that a dealer, after receiving tobacco from a farmer is required to pack it in hogsheads, cases or bales before offering it for sale to another person. A large number of dealers in North Carolina and Virginia markets buy exclusively from farmers at their barns, haul it to market, and sell it on warehouse floors. Oftener they buy after the tobacco is unloaded at the warehouse and resell without moving or rehandling the piles. Many thousands of pounds change hands this way daily, and the custom which has been in vogue for thirty years was stopped Monday by agents of the revenue department as illegal. It works great hardship, and Congres sional representatives are being called upon to secure at least a modification of the harsh ruling, which is all in favor of the American Tobacco Company, for whose benefit, we suppose, it was passed. Spring 'ews From Billville. Miss Mollie Jinkins lost her snow shoes and blizzard muffler at the picnic yesterday. Some of our boys who were in the Third Georgia have returned home in the fourth blizzard. We learn that Rufe Williams, of the Forks, who has been Marching in our midst, will also April with us. Our venerable pastor's ears were frozen while he was mixing spring lemonade at the picnic, yesterday. It was impossible to keep the meet ing house warm last Sunday even with two stoves and a good sermon on "Hell" This winter is very severe on the peach crop; but we may confidently expect watermelons after the com ing June blizzard and a possible July snow. Our people in this settlement have very little sympathy for the Filipi nos. They ate up three fat mission aries that we sent to them in good faith. We have lined and padded our linen duster with three army blank ets, and we are going to insist that it is spring if we freeze in the at tempt. This is the coldest weather since the day we received $2 on subscrip tion and an earthquake swallowed our office whole, and saved us the trouble of paying rent. The ice is breaking in the river in cracks that are big enough to accom modate a number of corks. We un derstand that Col. Williams landed three catfish and two box-cooters Tuesday. Bishop O. P. Fitzgerald will preach the annual sermon at the approach ing commencement of Littleton Fe male College. Rev. T. N. Ivey will deliver the literary address and Rev. J. S. Williams will preach the ser mon before the Young Ladies Mis sionary Society. Weekly Crop Bulletin. During the week ending Monday, April 17, the first spring-like weath er of the season occurred. The con ditions were extremely favorable for farm work and the growth of crops and bright skies and better prospects encouraged active work everywhere. Tuesday (11th) was rather cool with frost, which, however, did but little damage, but the temperature then rose rapidly, culminating on Friday in maximum readings over 80 de grees, while the mean for the week averaged about 4 degrees above the normal. Dry weather prevailed un til Saturday night, when light show ers fell which were not injurious. Frost occured again Monday morn ing (17th), chiefly in the central west section; the damage, if any, cannot be reported until next week. The amount of sunshine was abundant, and under its influence vegetation made rapid progress. Forests, how ever, still show the unusual lateness of the season. Although very much behind in their work, farmers accomplished a great deal this week. The soil has dried out and is generally in good condition except on lowlands where it is too wet. Plowing is progressing rapidly and gardens are being prepared and plan ed in all sectious. Planting corn is proceeding actively, especially in southern and eastern sections, and early planted is coming up nicely. Preparations for cotton are under way, but no cotton has been planted except a few patches in Richmond county. Tobacco-plant beds have improved, and while the plants are small they are abundant and are now growing nicely. Wheat and oats have improved somewhat and appear to be branching well, but evidently have a poor stand generally. Spring oats are coming up; sowing contin ues in the west. Truck crops in the east look more thrifty; potatoes are doing well; beans are up; asparagus is being shipped. Pastures are late but clover is growing rapidly. Some rice has been planted in northern coast counties. Fruit undoubtedly has been seriously damaged, peaches are not all killed; apple and cherry trees are in full bloom now, and also strawberries. Small shipments of strawberries began this week from the east.

The first partnership bankruptcy case in tms judicial district was argued at Raleigh Saturday for Stevenson & King, of Smithfield. On it the Court made the following rulings, which are of general import ance: rirst, mat in an matters affecting personal property exemp tions the State law, as construed by the State Supreme Court, must govern; second, tnat in partner ships, consent of each partner is necessary before personal property exemption can be set opart to the individual partners out of partner ship assets.

He will answer, 4 4 Cod-liver oil." Nine out of ten will answer the same way. Yet when persons have consumption they loathe all fatty foods, yet fat is neces sary for their recovery and they cannot take plain cod liver oil. The plain oil dis turbs the stomach and takes away the appetite. The dis agreeable fishy odor and taste make it almost unen durable. V hat is to be done ? This question was ans wered when we first made EMULSION of Cod-Liver Oil with Hypo phosphites. Although that was nearly twenty-five years ago, yet it stands alone to day the one great remedy for all affections of the throat and lungs. The bad taste and odor have been taken away, the oil itself has been partly digested, and the most sen sitive stomach objects to it rarely. Not one in ten can take and digest the plain oil. Nine out of ten can take SCOTTS EMULSION and di gest it That's why it cures so many cases of early consumption. Even in advanced cases it brings comfort and greatly prolongs life.
