Mr. 'Groundhog- is making good; witness the weather we're having: "The following from Tne Concord Tribune of Friday will be; of interest to many Gasto uians, this being Mr. Carroll's home town: "At the meeting o the atockholdera of the Glenn & Carroll Grocery Company yes terdajr, Mr. M. IV. v. Buchanan was elected president with Mr, R. H. Carroll, secretary and treasurer The report of last year's business was very satisfac tory to tne stockholders.", . , , -ro relating tne incidents jn last Tuesday's Gazette, pertain mg to the obstruction of the main line of the Southern Rail way's track opposite the Trenton Mill last Sunday by thirteen boys, who ran two or three box cars past the "clear" post on the mill siding, the fact that Mr R. W White flagged No. 12 and on the engine was not noted. Mr. White says as soon as be saw the situation: knowing the train was about due, he burned down the track and stopped the train. If all the patrons of all " the rural routes would use "return" envelopes when ! writing letters the local ostoffice and Uncle Sam's clerks in the dead letter office would be saved -an im mense amount of labor and the writers would , also be saved no little worry and inconvenience. Envelopes with printed return corners can be had just about as cheap as plain envelopes and are very much more satisfactory. Patrons of rural routes would help-their carriers by heeding this advice. "This is the time of year." said a gentleman who keeps up with things in general to The Gazette reporter, ? when calves, horses and ' others animals eet lousy. There are several rem edies for this but farmers should beware of using kerosene and fire as Mr. B , in a neighboring town, did, Mr. B. poured kero sene on a calf and then, in order to burn some superfluous hair from the calf legs, applied a match. The affrighted animal ran through the barn and it was merely an ' accident that the barn and its contents were not destroyed by fire." Messrs. Joho F. Davis & ton, tne liverymen; lost a very valuable horse, one of the best m i tneir stables, yesterday morning, it was struck by a wild box carat the crossing on the Dallas pike at the piaster mill. The horse was bitched to a wagon and was being driven by one of the stable drivers. The vehicle was damaged very little and the driver escaped without injury: Tne car started from a point near the Old Mill and because of the heavy down-grade bad attained quite a speed by the time the crossing was reached.

Jane Voodard, ' Aged Negro Woman ol Mount Holly, Second Victim Oeorge . Eoss and Wile Placed in House ol Detentlon-County Physician ... Urges Vaccination. Another case of smallpox has broken out in the county, "the viotira ' being an aged negro wom an , Jane Wood ard, who lives just outside . the corporate limits of Mohnt Holly and about four miles from Farror Brothers' store, where Mr. Jack Farror is suffering from the same disease; as reported in Friday's Gazette, The disease J is j not of a very malevolent typef however Fri day afternoon George Ross and wife, white, of 7 Mount Holly were brought to the house of de tention near Gastonia and are now under strict guard. They were ' exposed to the disease Refusing, to come, 'warrants were issued for them and they were placed in the detention camp by officers of the law. " About forty persons in all have been- exposed to the disease in and around Mount Holly and Mountain Island but the majority of these have been vaccinated. So far, there are. only these two cases Should any considerable number of new cases develop in this section ot the cotinty, com pulsory vaccination will likely be ordered. County Physician L N Glenn, who is in charge of the situation, advises that all ! persons who are likely to be ex posed in any way to the disease be vaccinated.-There is no ex citement over the matter and it is not believed that anything? like a general . prevalence of smallpox in the county is probable. ssistaot Postmaster Victim o! , Distressioft Accident Will be Confined to His Hom for Some Time. . , Assistant Postmaster George RN&awlings is confined to his bed as the result of a distressing accident which befell him Sat urday morning in which be suf fered the fracture of the bone in oue of his legs,' Mr. Rawlings was in the act of taking down the mail sack which bad been placed on the crane at the depot for vestibule train No. 37 when he supped and fell to the ground The steps were probably slip pery from the recent sleet, this a . a m a i Deing responsiDie ior tne ian. Friends" ' went to his assistance and be was removed to bis home. While suffering intensely from the wound, it is not believed that Mr, ' Rawlings will sustain any permanent injury there from. He will probably be laid up for a month or more, ' how ever. His work at the post office is being done by the other members of the force. i ck " wis jt ir T rr iatta O o o o 20 There is nothing more dainty for a picnic or luncheon, than Argo Red Salmon sandwiches orwlad.

Mr. George - W, member ot tne committee ap pointed by the recent mass meeting to draw up the bill to be introduced in the General Assembly providing for a bond issue and for improvements of t h e sidewalks, gutters and streets, informs The Gazette that the bill has been passed by the House, having been amended td the extent that the provision that the board; of aldermen be empowered to require property owners to foot one-fort h the cost of macadamizing or paving the streets touching their prop erty was striken out. As ' the bill stands it provides that prop erty owners bear the cost of con structing sidewalks, if so ordered by the council, but no part of the cost of constructing gutters or streets falls on them. The bill, it is understood, will pass the Senate without opposition. Argo Red Salmon is cleaned and packed entirely by machine. and not touched by the human hand. After trying it you will use no other. At all grocers. In the Police Court. Wardell Wilson, a negro be lieved to be mentally unbalanced. was tried before Mayor Dixon Saturday on a charge of break ing into the residence of Mr.. P. M. Gardner Friday. In default of a $50 bond he was committed to jail to await trail at the present term of Superior Court. Wilson's actions Friday would indicate that he is crazy. He put on a wig ana went to a number ... of . houses at the Avon and Trenton Mills seeking board, asserting that he had secured work as an operative in the Avon. When hi came to Mr. Gardner's house there was no body at home and he went in. Nothing was taken. Another case disposed of by the mayor Saturday was that of Meek Lindsay, a negro, who was fined $1 and cost, amounting to $3.50 for firing a gun within the cor porate limits of the town. Candidates for Mayor Will Prob ably Make Last Appearance on Stamp for the Campaign at Modena Mill To-Night-Large Crowd Expected. Probablv the last public speak ing by the candidates for mayor will take place at the school house at the Modena Mil this evening at 7;30 o'clock. There will be speeches by Mr. bepark, Mr. Aimstrong and Mr. Glenn. This meeting is for the especial benefit of the operatives of the Modena and Old Mills and the candidates desire that as large a number as possible come out to bear them. All who come will no doubt be well repaid for their trouble. As this is probably the last public appearance of the candidates on the stump before the primary it is not improbable that it will be the most interest ing of the series pf gatherings of voters. Last Friday night the can-i didates spoke at the Ozark and were heard by a good-sized and interested crowd. No unusual incidents marked the occasion but there was fun and interest for all. Let all the voters at the Mo dena and Old Mills come out to night. It's a good old world after all; If you have no friends or money In the river you can fall; Marriages are quite common and, More people there would be, Provided you take Rocky Moun tain Tea.
