She lUcsscutfcv. FRIDAY, APRIL 8, 1898. LOCAL NEWS. Good Friday today. Sunday next will be Easter. "Competition is the life of trade." Should we not have a Union Temperance Band here? The town election occurs the first Monday in May. It. is feared that the cold has done much damage to peaches. Bjrn to Mr. and Mrs. S. II. Yancey on Tuesday morning, a son. ,. il showers arrived on sched ule time. They will produce May flowers. The aldermen on Tuesday niht passed an ordinance against riding bicycles on the side walks. T. Medd, the variety store man, has a new ad this week tell ing of his tempting things at tempt ing prices. We shall be glad to publish any church notices, free. Please let us have them not later than Thursday noon. On last Sabbath morning and for some time since, the tops of Black Mountains were covered with a thin mantle of snow. Mrs KiiiL' Davis, the mother of Mr. Tom Davis, of Old Fort, died on Tuesday night. She was an aged and good woman. McCall & Conley, wide awake merchants, again present to our readers some most interesting trade news in their full and suita ble soring stock. Pay them a visit. Some of our local talent are speaking of acting "Ten Nights in a Barroom" in the near future. There are some good lessons in temperance taught in this drama. Teacher "What little boy can tell me how to divide eight apples equally among thirteen children ?" Willie "Make apple sass of 'em and feed it to the kids with a spoon." Messrs. Will Clay, Charlie Ellis and Stanley Rader rode bicycles up the railroad track to Siloam church to services on las: Sunday. They could ride all the way, except about half a mi!e. A cow accidentlly broke a leg in Prof. Guy's yard last week. She had come into the yard and was being runout by the dog, whsn she accidentally fell breaking a foreleg. She had to be killed. Rev. J. C. Collins writes that it appears that the remainder of the first series of 300 lots at Black Mountain retreat (over 200 having been sold) will be sold within the next 30 days, when the price will advance. On account of the extensive accounts ot war matters, several communications on various sub jects that have been received for this paper, have been laid aside until we can find space for their insertion. Just any old thing may suit some people in printing, but if you want up to date work on good material write to, or call on us, and from our large sample book of styles and prices you can older just what you will get at the price agreed upon. Twoof the Waldensian colon ists, Charley Long and August .lacquemin, have enlisted in the I'nited States army and are now in the training barracks at Fortress Monroe. Both are young men of about eighteen years. Garibaldi found the Piedmontese excellent soldiers, and so, no doubt, will I'ncle Sam. The ladies of Old Fort and vicinity have moved in the right direction in having organized at the Fort, the Union Temperance Band, which now has about 30 members. This is something that should grow and succeed. It is designed for persons from S to 20 years of age, but others are admit ted. They meet weekly. A colored man by the namr of Simmons had been storekecping up the Catawba river above Old Fort. He succeeded a white man, Mr. McKoy, of Macon county, a young lawyer. We are told that some persons about a week ago by some means made the colored man leave. The Republicans might give a colored man a place that he could retain. The lone litigation between creditors of the Linviile River Railroad Company and that cor poration came to an end on Tues day last, at Lenoir, when a com promise was effected by the parties mieresieu ana ail appeals wun drawn. This case involved about 15. coo. Among the interested parties are Mr. Z T. Corpenine and Mr. J. R. Ervin of Morganton, and W. G. Corpening of Bridge- water. The Krister of Tuesday stated that a committee of physicians had unanimously decided that there were 13 cases of smallpox in Col umbia, S. C. The type is a mild one. One white man has the dis ease. The cases are to be quaran tined, and vaccination is urged upon all the people. Smallpox is also said to exist at Arkright Mills, near Spartanburg, and Pelham, in Greenville county, S. C, but there is no cause for anxiety here as none exists in this State so far as known. The Confederate veterans are to meet on the first Mondav in May. County Standard Keeper T. C. Morgan is arranging to have the scales, balances, etc., of the county adjusted. Sunday April 10th being Eas ter day, there will be service in the Episcopal church both morn ing and evening. Mrs James Dillingham was buried last week, at Pallistir.e church, about C miles north of here. Her husband was a brother of the late Dallis Dillingham. The lady left a young child. Not very much is being done as to the new municipal officers to be elected soon. Perhaps there is time enough. Whether young or old officials are named, we most of all need progressive men to have in charge the interest of our grow in town. The work of the county com missioners Monday was routine in character, except the order to have two meridian posts put up near the court house. This is for the purpose of testing the correctness of surveyor's compasses, etc. The United States Government, by the county paying $25, will have the posts properly placed as a true scientific test of such instruments. TKKSONAL I'AIiAOIlArilH. Rev. J. C. Brown is up from Chambers, Burke county, this week. Mr. Sam White came over from Asheville this week on a visit home. Messrs. G. B. Thompson and J. S. Bradley, of Old Fort, were down Tuesday on business. This week Mr. A. E. Puckridjre left for Woodstock, Ontario, Can., to reside with an uncle. Mr. Cooper, of Cooper & Wood bury, Murphy, N. C, lumber deal ers, was over on business Monday. Messrs. Ed. Crawford and Will McCanless, of Old Fort, left a few days since to join the United States Navy. Si iikIh of Siiinl.iy's S minus. Mkthodist Church Text: Psa. xlii, 5. ''Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou dis quieted in me? hope thou in God ; for I shall yet praise him for the helpot his countenance." The re ligious experiences of the Psalmist were varied. Sometimes he was joyous; sometimes depressed. So has it been with most of us. u e have had seasons of religious joy, but this joy has not been continu ous, uninterrupted. We have to contend with many things that are calculated to depress our spirits, but we should have such strong faith in the promises and provi dences of God as to enable us to rejoice within regardless of our outward circumstances. David re bukes his soul for being depressed. Baptist Church II Cor., viii, 7 See that ye abound in this grace also. 1. This is ad dressed to Christians. (1) It is the duty of all Christians to abound in the grace of liber alty I Cor., xvi, 2. (2) I f we do not, we forfeit our right to fellow ship and rob God Mai. iii, S. 2. hy should we abound in tue grace of giving? (1) It proves the sincerity of our love. (2) Because of the love of Christ, which should constrain us to be liberal. 3. How may we abound in grace? (1) By constant giving. (2) By giving in the proper spirit and from the proper motives II C r., ix, 7; Pr ov. xi, 25. (3) By giving systematically, as God has pro posed Gen. xxvni, 22; Lev. xxvn, 30; Mai. iii, 10; Luke vi, 3S. Clout f rubllc Schools. Thr school taught by Mr. J. C. Melton, of Buncombe county, at Siloam, came to a close last Fri day night with a very interesting program rendered by the pupils. For the three months' term 34 had been enrolled, with an average at tendance of 28. A part of the Swannanoa string band was over, giving most stirring, good music. More people were present than on any similar occasion since 1S80 The order and progress of pupils were most excellent. Mr. Melton's school has received many favor able comments, verified by the statement that he is desired to teach another school there to be gin in August. Mr. J. W. Bradley closed a very excellent public school near Mr. Lee W. William's a few days since. He reports the deportment and advancement of the pupils as of the very best. It was one of his most satisfactory terms, the pupils starting and finishing, in most cases, with credit to themselves. We are pleased to hear of these beneficial results. Hie Kiitrrtiilimif-iit. Notwithstanding the excessive rains, the entertainment under the direction of Miss Ada Yosbere: was considered a success, the pro ceeds amounting to nearly :o Miss Addie Hall having left an excellent part of the programme wag necessarily omitted. The cantata was very pretty indeed. The singing of Mrs. Gorman and the Misses Neal was excellent. Miss Yosberg presented all the proceeds from the sale of tickets, except actual expenses, to the church. She thus gave her time and work, which is much appre ciated. to cn:u a coi n in o.nk day TuWe Lasative Bromo Quinine Tal.Uts. All KrugKists refund the money if it fails to Cure 25 cents.
