Mr. Fred Becton, from Wilson, has been visiting his brother, Mr. Geo. Becton, this week. Miss Bettie Howell spent Sat urday night and Sunday at "Oak Glen," where she is always a wel come visitor. Mr. and Mrs. Fred Howell, and daughter, Miss Sudie, of your city, spent last Tuesday with Mr. and Mrs. Joe Rose. We are glad to lern that Mr. Rufe Rcse is improving from his recent sickness, and hope he may soon be rt stored to health. Miss Lizzie Becton returned to Louitburg College Tuesday, after a two weeks visit to her parents, Mr, ard Mrs. Geo. Becton. Miss Morton, of Morehead City, spent Monday night with her schoolmate Mies Lizzie Bea ten, on her return to Louisburg College. Mr. Geo. Yelvtrton has put in a stock of goods in his store at Walter, and he and Willie are ready to wait on anyone who may want anything in their line. Mr. Geo. Becton has moved, his storehouse, which was occupied by Mr. Montague, up near his dwelling, and we learn contem plates putting in a stock of goods. "We go forward," too, aud the first thing you know we will is sue bonds for a city hall, lights, and water works. Mr, and Mrs. J. C. Montague, who have been residents here for the past year, where Mr. Monta gue has been conducting, very successfully, a general mercantile business, have moved to Prince ton, to the regret of their best of friends. They made many friends here who wish them success in their new home. The friends of Mr. Willie Thompson, learned with deep re gret of his tragic death in a land slide on the C. & O. Railroan last week. He was a cousin of Mr , J. C. and Misses Mary and Ger trude ThompeoD, and was a fre quent visitor here in days past, where he made many friends. He was Express Messenger on the ill fated train. There is very little sickness in our community at present, but there are numerous cases of dis turbed innervation's ovf r the ques tion of vaccination. We fail to see the consistency in requiring all school children ta be vaccinat ed, and letting every one else go free. Smallpox being a highly contagious malady, two things are essential in controlling it, name ly, universal vaccination and strict quarantine. Bat is this necessary, as long as it requires an expert to diagnose a true case of stnallpax? We do not see any redemption for this section, to tide us over March, and into "garden sass" time, but to get Bob Pipkin to furnish our farmers potatoes to plant on shares again. If we can git him to do this, we are safe, otherwise, we will be compelled to go way back and sit -down. Every thing is out, and unites Bob comes to onr assistance, we will have a receiver appointed at once. Later: Bob says we have his sympathy in our dire distress, but won't get any of his potatoes. He is too busy waiting to get his pro fit out of those furnished two years ago. Killickinick. "Oak Glenn", Walter, N. C, Jan. 7, 1902. Woodland Crumbs. Mrs. Josephine Mendenhall, of Randolph county, who has been visiting her sister, Mrs. J. S. Moore, returned home last week. Mrs. Avice C.

The news that the brigands holding Miss Stone captive are being1 hustled by the inhabitants of the Turkish territory, where they are said to be in hiding, has created considerable of a sensa tion here. A deadly feud is said to exist between the leaders of the hostile bands, some of whom are reported to have deserted and as attempting to re-enter Bulgaria. Much anxiety is felt here with reeard to the outcome of these developmpnts. The American legation has not yet received nes from M. Garbiuto, dragoa man of the legation, who left Salonica for the interior the lat ter part of last month with the purpose of meeting Miss Stone's captors.
