A turn table has been put in at the depot for turning theengines of the Carolina and iorth-"Yest-ern road. The Lutheran picinie at Hick ory last Thursday was a great success. There was a large crowd in attendance anu the speaking was very much enjoyed. The union of the different branch es of Lutherans in the South was advised by most of the speakers. The county sujienntendent auctioned off to the lowest bid ders Monday contracts for build ing eleven new school houses. The lowest contract was $240 and the hicrhest $485.

S'tacey and son, Master Ben, of Nebo, were shop ping in town Tuesday. Mrs. Stacey reports the members of her family, who have recently had typhoid fever, as improving. Another death is charged to the account of the steam shovel operators.

Messrs. Laughridge, Lum Lytic and Will Morris were their escorts. The celebrated hog case be tween Messrs. Sinclair and Buffa lo was decided in favor of Col. Sinclair Tuesday. The animal in question is an extra fine Berk shire sow, valued at about $40. It seems that Col. Sinclair and Mr. Buffalo each had a sow of the same stock and very much alike, and one of them "came up the meeting. Broad guage cars were put on the Carolina and North Western railroad Monday from Newton to Lenoir. The narrow gauge trains will still be used south o! Newton for several weeks.

A Good Meeting at Warlick's Chapel, in Burke Almost a Fire Small Criminal Docket. Lenoir News. Aug. 15th. Murrell. the three vear old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. L. L. Munday, died at their home in this place last Friday. The wailing of the little nar row gauge locomotives, as they left Lenoir last Saturday for the last time, were pathetic. Caldwell Superior Court for the trial of criminal cases only, will convene September 15. The poeple are to be congratulated that the docket is small, and the business will probably be dis posed of in two or three day. - Some ashes placed in a wooden bucket by Mrs. P. M.

Well, of, conrse I bad to split up some kiud ling and bring iu some stove wood, but I am gettiug along fair ly well and my wife thinks the exercise is doing me good. L ist night she hinted that the veranda was badly tracked op since the rain and needed a good washing.

We let her sleep until breakfast is ready, for she cleans np her room and make8.np two beds and theu sews all day lor the grandchildren. But I want that colored house party to break np as soon as pos i sible. for I dou't hanker after this it caused tronble and shame in the family, and so it has done ever since whenever a white person mates with a negro. What a monstrous falsehood to say that tbe Southern negro is de humanized. Right here In our town every negro mechanic is em ployed at good wages. Black smiths, carpeuters, masons, dray men, painters are all busy. Cooks, nurses and washerwomen find con stant employment and they are not only contented, bnt sometimes dare to be merry and langh. Where did Sledd get all that rot about kicking and cursiug and beating the negro! We never hear of such treatment in this region. Mr. Milam, a truthful gentleman, whose business keeps him on the street, told me the other day that he bad heard but one oath uttered by anybody with in a year, aud that was by a north ern man to a negro who asked him a civil question. Dehumanized, indeed. Ask Tribble and Brown who give their shops the most pat ronage. What ridiculous folly to demand seats in our churches for the negroes. They have churches of their own that were built main ly by the charity of the white folks. Thev dou't want seats in oar churches. They have schools of their own that we support, and they have excursions and baseball aud watermelons and funerals and Daughters of Zion. Ob, tor shame on Sledd! I pity 'his family and his kindred. He thinks he has found a mare's nest, and for lack of something fresh has raked up Sam Hose again. He laments the lynch ings, but not the outrages, and he proposes a remedy. Mr. Sledd can set this down that the lynch- ings will not stop until the out rages do. Wheu a negro dehu mauizes himself and becomes a beast he ought to be lynched, whether it is Sunday or Monday. Let the lynching go on. This is tbe sentimeut of oar people, and let Boston and tbe Atlantic Month ly and Sledd howl. We are used to that. Not long ago we had a lynching in Rome that was to my notiou. The beast was strung np iu Broad street in tbe daytime and shot to pieces and nobody was dis guised. The judge lived there and the sheriff and town marshal and pohcerneu and a military company and the governor wasn't far away, but not a sonl said nay. That suits me exactly. For 0er SUty Tears.
