V gang of thieves has been oper- -srJng in the Mooresboro section Kr several weeks and the stealing of meat from farmers and goods of various kinds from the mer chants of that section have been of so common occurrence as to cause the people no little an noyance and considerable loss. However their -thefts have not amounttd to a great deal until last Thursday night when they entered the store of Messrs. D. B. McBrayer & Son and stole sever al suits of clothes, shoes, hats, and all other necessary articles to make their wardrobes complete, besides a good supply of sardines and other canned goods.

Lenoir Topic, Mar. 13th. The sale of Lenoir Inn is to take phace April 2nd and 3d. Mr. J.H. Hoffman, of Burke, was in town Saturday and Sun day. The glory of the dressmaker's life hath come, for behold Easter draweth nigh. Spring weather will bring out the buds, candidates for cilice and poets, so let us await in peace. At the Commissioner's sale of lands of Pickuey Deal, deceased, Mr. W. C rsewland became the purchaser for the sum of $2,475. Mrs. W. C. Newland left last Wednesday to go to the bedside of her uncle, Mr. Colville, who lives in Eastman, Georgia, but arrived too late to see the end. Mr. Colville had spent some time in Lenoir and made many friends, who will sorrow at the tidings of his death. Mrs. Jennie Lippard, mother of Mrs. M. N. Horton, died Mon day evening in the Hospital at Morganton, where she had been for many years. Her bo ly was brought to Lenoir and was in terred in the town cemetery from the residence of Mrs. Hortun, funeral servi2es conducted bv Rev. H. H. Phelps. Although for many years she had been a patient sufferer with a nervous disease and had not mingled with society, vet she leaves many friends and relatives who remem ber her and will sorrow that she hath been called to abetter land. Mrs. Lou Anna, wife of Mr. R. M. Tuttle, died at her home in Lenoir Saturday evening after a very brief illness. She lea res eight children, the youngest of them being of the tender age of two years, which renders the loss doubly sad. It is useless to eu logize, the life of this gopd wo man is written in the lives of those who knew her, among whom in gentle simplicity she walked, and who could'fail to be impressed by her Christian char acter? Being a member of a large family numbering some of Caldwell's best people the tiding wilLbe read with sadness. Mrs. Tuttle was buried Monday even- ngfrom the Methodist church, Rev. R. N. Richardson couduct- ing the funeral services. Other Caldwell Items. Lenoir News. Mar. 14th. Miss Emma Corpening, who was called home from Baltimore by the death of her sister, Mrs. Tuttle, reports her nephew whom he took to Baltimore for medi cal treatment as being about well. He will come home in a short time. Mr. Lee Horton, of the Valley, died at his home nearBlackstone last Sunday and was buried Mon day at the Horton family burying ground. Mr. Horton was a man of high standing in his commun ity and has many relatives in this part of the State. He was an uncle of Hon. W. H. Bower, of this place. The progressive citizens of Lower Creek township are mov ing tor better roads, lney are going to tax themselves 15 cents on the hundred dollars valuation of their property and 45 cents on the poll for reads. This in addi tiou to the regular road duty will doubtless lead to better things in tne future. DANGER OF COLDS AND LA GRIPPE. The greatest danger from la grippe and colds is their result ing in pneumonia. It reason able care is used, however, and Chamberlain's Cough Remedy taken, all danger will be avoid ed. Among the tens of. thou sands who have used this rem edy for these diseases, we have yet to learn of a single case having resulted in pneumonia, which shows conclusively that it is a certain preventive of that dangerous malady. It will cure a cold or an attack of la grippe in less time than any other treatment. It is pleasant and safe to take. For sale by W. A. Leslie, druggist.

Correspondence of The News-Herald. Raleigh, C, March 17 On t his '''Saint Patrick's day in the inoroiug" I xvonM like to ask you if .you intend to vote in the State election in November and, if so, whether you have taken the nec ess try initial step to do so. This is the year our new fran chise law, under the provisions of the Constitutional Amendment adopted two years ago, goes into effect and one of the flrst require merits to qualify you to become an elector is the payment of your poll lax ou or before May 1st. Uu less you can show your poll tax re ceipt you will not be legally en titled to vote, no matter how white you are. li has been aunounced tha. this is one of the "questions" the Dem ouratic State and Central Com mittees will take up when they meet in joint session here a week hence. Bat theie really seems to be no interrogatiou point attached to it. It is not a question but a fact the law and the law most be obeyed. So, see your tax col lector at once There will be more negroes qualified to vote, so far as t-he ed ucational qnalifiVanou affects them than most people are countiug ou. This will be found to be true es pecially with the city and towu negroes, who so generally take ad vantage of the good school facili ties afforded them. Indeed, a very sensible aud ob servant and widely travelled man declared to me to-day that "it ie a great deal easier for negro youths to secure an education, even a higher education, in North Caro lina today thau the poor class of white bovh, especially in the towns aud cities, and a larger proportion of them are obtaining it thau most white people are aware.' When ous takes into considera tion the well equipped public aud graded schools for blacks, aud es pecially the colleges (like Shaw University at Raleigh, Livingstone University at Salisbury and the number of other colleges at Char lotte, Greensboro, aud other places, open to them aliuott without cost, on account of the liberality ot Northern p.itioiis), and the means of e. uuing their board at the oc cn;iatious open to darkles aud cfosed to white boys, the ob.serva tion does not sound so improbable. Apropos ot all this, we are now hearing much of the possible alien atiouofthe uegro vot- from the Republican party, aud a confer- it ft i f.ullfil t i iniiAt. Viti& trt one of the dt dared purposes of which is to ahgu the negro vote with the Democratic party or at least to pretty equally distribute it heteaiter between the two po litical parties. And it is a little interesting, too, to note that some of the leading white supremacy uewspapers of the last campaign are "featuring" this purpose, and apparently wel coming it iu their columns. What if the great buik of the uero vote should come over bodily to the Democratic partji Are we pre pared to welcome it! I have itsked a number of our 'leaders" the above question. Some say yes, while others object very stoutly. But even the latter admit that they would hnd it as difficult to keep them out as they would to prevent the white vote from splitting at the same time, and very much for the same rea son. The boast of some of the Kepub lican leaders that their party is uow strougetst in the white coun ties is also causing oar politicians to look -into the "whyness" and ''whereforeness" of that statement it true. On the whole, the po litical developments of 1902 prom ise to be luteresi ing and something out of the usual order, possibly if the present current continues to flow uninterruptedly on. Post trial evidence Iias induced Governor Avcock to save auot ler condemned bnrglar from the gtl lows, and Audrow Jackson, white. of Lincoln county has had his sen teuce commuted to lite imprison merit. The newly produced evi dence casts a doubt upon the guilt of the prisoner, and as there is no law providing lor a new trial in such cases (and the Governor thinks thre ought to be), and his excellencv leans to the side of mercy and gives tbe prisoner the benetit of the doubt to the extent stated. If not guilty he ought to fn n,.i, cases ought to be provided by our laws It is almost as wrong to lock an innocent man iu prison for life as it would be io baug him But criticism should be directed to the defect in our criminal statu- terv laws rather than to the Gov- ernor. It's up to the Legislature to provide the remedy.

A gentlemen from Lumberton tells me that in a few days Phila delphia companies will acquire the Cape tear & Raleigh Railroad and will extend it via Fayetteville to Lumbertcn, where it will form part of the Carolina & Northern Railway, which is going to Charleston. No matter which syndicate gets the road this will be the result, it appears, and Ral eigh will get a direct line to to Charleston.

Baptized in the Eiver Jordan. New York Dispatch. According to advices received here from the Orient, Cornelias Van Ness, an octogenarian-millionaire, has been .baptized in the River Jordan, near the spot where Christ received His baptism at the bands of St. John. Mr. Van Ness sailed on the Celtic laBtmonth for this purpose. Millionaire Van Ness, who "for years owned and occupied a pa latial residence on the Hudson and has extensive real estate interests in New York, two years ago cre ated a sensation by marrying Miss Alice Wood, an attractive youDg woman of Port Jarvis, upon whom he bestowed his wealth with great liberality. This led to proceedings in the Superior Court by nieces of his former wife to restrain Mr. Van Ness from the further distribution of his estate. He settled tbe case by transferring to his nieces prop erty worth more than $100,000. Among the 1,200 passengers who sailed ou the Celtic were Mr. and Mrs. Van Ness. It now transpires that for years Mr. Van Ness had cherished a desire to be baptized iu the Jordan, and that the journey was undertaken for no other pur pose. According to reports re ceived trora the Celtic, Mr. Van Ness was baptized by Rev. Dr. William K. Hall, pastor of the First Presbyteriau church, of New burg, one of the passengers, and an intimate friend of the aged millionaire.
