It fell so fast, however, that much of it ran off without giving the parched earth such a soaking as its condition deserved. It is not thought that the crops are injured by the recent dry weather. On the contrary, the absence of wet spells, so common with us at this sea son, has given the farmers an opportu nity to kill the grass as it came up. E3T The old Rock . Island Factory building, corner Fifth and A streets, is for sale. Let some enterprising compa ny buy it and fill it up with cotton mill machinery. It could be worked up in to a bonanza.

"Well," continued the old man, "I want you to watch my 'tater-patch to-night;- a rogue got in it last night and jest naturally ruined it" It is not known whether the "guard" watched or not. A Charlotte cigar store man called yesterday to see a Morganton paper, with the hope of finding the name of some man in Morganton from whom he might purchase some Sally Mical pipes, which are known to be a "standard" article in Burke. The paper was found but it contained no Mor gantn advertisements, except a couple of lawyere' cards. Moral; Live men advertise. Killed at Winston.

Martin ; the Major General, Mr. Arthur Bacon ; tne sergeant or .roiice, Mr. P. S. McLauchlin ; Ruth, Mrs. Geo. Bason, and Mabel, Miss Mamie Lyon. The latter received an enthusiasticn core.
