The Beatd:—Those who shave do well, but those who do not shave do better. If nature intended for men to shave, she would not have been so lavish in providing them with beards, and it is best for men not-to shave at all, for nothing adds to the beauty of man so much as a full flowing beard. * I J.

We regreat to announce the death of little Florence, the 5 year old daughter of I. H. Pollock, of near Trenton. She had been sick with fever for some tme, and God in His wisdom, saw fit to transplant this little bud from earth to Heaven, where sickness and suffering are un known. We extend our sympathy to the bereaved family, and com mend them to the all wise one, who alone can heal the broken heart We made a flying trip to More head City last Friday afternoon to visit ouj daughter, Miss Lottie Whitaker, who is teaching in the Atlantic Institute, a school so ably presided over by Prof. Bums, as Principal. We were glad to hear from the Professor, that the school was meeting with much success, having on the roll about 90 students. We spent the night at the hospita ble home of Mrs. Washburn, a Jones county lady, who is keeping a boarding house. This good lady deserves a liberal patronage and we hope every Jones county person who may have occasions to visit More head City will stop with her. Her charges are reasonable. While in Kinston Monday we vis ited the mammoth store of Oet tinger Bros., and we were astonished at their magnitude, and the immense stock of goods they carry. Their main building is 130x32 feet, two stories high. The first floor is oc cupied by dry goods, notions, cloth ing, &c., and the second, floor with furniture, carpets, mattings, trunks, and many other goods. In the rear of this building is an annex, con nected by walk way, 75x25 feet, two stories, the second story is filled with mattresses, bedsteads, chairs, Ac. The first floor of this annex is where the heavy groceries are kept. This progressive Arm does a large wholesale as well as retail business. We noticed an immense pile of goods ready for shipping, enough to stock a small store, and this is but an every day occurrence by this house. A large number of polite clerks are employed, always ready to show and sell you whatever you desire. We especially ask you to give to Oettinger Bros., a libera] share of your patronage, for they will supply all your wants with the very best goods. Read their ad. in the News. he Raiirotd It Coming. [ We met our genial and far seeing friend, Ex-Sheriff S. E. Koonce on the street a day ot two ago and he remarked that there was no doubt but the railroad is comming to Tren ton. “You seem to speak knowingly Sheriff, what do you base your state- 1 ment upon?” “Upon this, I know the managers of a great railroad corporation like the Coast Line is composed of men of intellegence and are far seeing, and I take it they know of the line fanning and timber section the road would pass through from Maysville or PoUokaville by way of Trenton; then when you con rider the further fact, that by so do ing they connect tie W. & N. road with the Greenville branch at Kins ton thus giving them, a through route from Norfolk to Wilmington, paralleling the W. ft W. road. This would make them masters of situa- 1 tion in the East . ' ————— _John B. Koonce went Richlands 1 Tuesday. Wc had the pleasure of meeting in our office last Saturday Mr. Wooten of the law firm of Wooten and Shaw, of Kinston. He informed ts that they would open a branch office in Trenton, and we moat heartily ] commend them to any one needing their services.
