TtiE SDSPEWSE IS EKDED. Kr. J. A: Giles to Be Appointed Post master for Durban. ' News comes to Durham that Mr. J A, Giles, assistant district attorney, is to receive the appoint ment as postmaster of Durham, and holds a letter from Mr. Morehead tha he will be recom mended. - v ; . This ends a fight that promised some amusing incidents had any of the several programs proposed Lbeen carried out. Chief of the amusing features would have been the running for county of nee of the candidates for the position of postmaster, as was proposed by Mr. D. C. Mangum Another feature that would wave been amusing was the primary icea of settling the matter. The Durham postoffic pays something over $3,000 a year and the appointment is, of course, lor four years, which makes jt an objecc to be coveted. The present postmaster, Mr. P. J. O'crien, has made an ef ficient officer and it seems ..that there is something wrong with a system that . turns a man out of a position for no other reason than the one that be has held the position for some time. But f uch is the way of politics, and it makes liule m,r the kind of onicer' one happens to be, if the politics of the job de mands a change, he must step H.til'n anil nnt on I nt enm niUar Mhw have th hw fop a gea - " ' Earrlsfllle, Roa!e2 , Too late fjr last iJucJ ' Dear Edit6r wilt yoa altovr nw a little space in the Recorder for these few item?.

Loan Session Ketd JHonday Mfltil U ' ' This Week. The city aldermen met in regu lar monthly meeting last Monday night for the purpose of looking after the regular routine business of the-city and much business came up for their consideration. License was' granted to four people to ; conduct near beer stands, and same being good un til May the first, , Other matters considered by the board were relative to street work and sewer pipe. The healch board were given power to pur chase additional wagons to help haul off trash. , The ordinance relative to pool rooms was amended, making it a penalty for pool rooms to allow minors under 18 years of age to loafer around or go into except on business otjer than playing the game or. watching others play, also prohibiting the owners of pool rooms from putting up obstructions in front of the glass doors or windows. No exception was made regarding the entering and playing of minors in any pool room, and it is supposed that the Y. M. C. A. pool room will come under the new regulation. Frnm Eoxbcro. Eoute Spring seems to have come at last with its green viridity, sink ing birds, croaking frogs and thunder and showers. MrsP. S. Rogers and her son, Roy, attended the burial of Mr. J. C.

Mr. Charley Brooks.of Brooks dale, is in very feeble health and is said to be afflicted with something like yellow jaundice. Hope that he will soon be up ajraia as ne u one pi our most useful men and stands as high as any in this county. The horse which preceded the train sometime ago was shot at the third time on the trestle and Uo shots took effect, one in the left eye and the other above the nose, and one ball has recently ccme to the surface under the horr e's throat and has been re moved and the horse has lost her left eye in which one ball enter ed. It is a wonder to me that the horse did not lose her life, but it is the opinion of some thsst the animal will be in a condition lo work late in the rprirg of the year. March cams this time like a hmb, and we hope that the last will not be a Hon. ' f Samuel Jonts, son of G. II.

We hear of four to five each week, but plant bed burning and cutting frolicks will soon bo athinfcof the passed, and the next thing in rotation will be the turning up of.the clay which is necessary to hold moisture in the land to make a crop and let the roots of the corn go down.
