THE FRAN KLIN T I M FS. Friday, - - May, 10, 1889. INDEX TO NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. TAR DROPS. The Hotel Question. " a Merricksr, who run a small factory at Mr;C. C. Harrisl -proprietor: of the 'AT!l willing The newly elected Mayor and town commissioners will be sworn in on Monday next. Mr. B. F. Smith, of Dunns town ship, but formerly of PungoM informs us that he set out tobacco the 4th. Our boys and younjj men are prac ticing nearly every evening at base-ball, and in a few days the two nines formed will liave a match-game. Kaleigh Cattle : Show May 15th Special train will leave Louisburg at 5.15 in the morning and return about 9.30 at night. Let's all go. You can get one free at J. J. . Person's if you will call between this date and to-morrow (Saturday) night. "None given away after that date. ' J. A. Thomas has moved to the house known as the 'lxry place," next to Mr. J. S. Barrow's, and the house near the depot, vacated by Mr. Thomas will be occupied by Mr. E. C. Jones after June 1st. A correspondent, who signs lrim self "Citizen'' and says that he is a Re publican, pays our efficient postmaster, Mr. C- C. Harris, many compliments, and says he hopes that Mr. Harrison win not thins ot appointing any one else to this position. He also speaks in high terms of the very polite manner in which Miss Alice Harris attends to the post-office. The fact that only seven sn.all tracts of land were sold for taxes at the Court House door on Monday last, speaks in high terms of the people of Franklin, and at the same time goes to yrove tliat we have a Sheriff that at tends to the business for which the peo ple have so often elected him. We dare say there is no county in the State that lias a better Sheriff than Franklin. The attention of our farmers who are raising tobacco is called to the ad vertisement of W. II. Snow, of High Point, which will be found in tins Issue. To understand it you must turn to it and read it. Mr. W. E. Johns, a very clever gentleman, is now canvassing Franklin county, in the interest of the Modern Barn Company, and the 4 J feet stick used hi the ordinary barn. His headquarters at present are at Louis burg, and all the farmers who desire to liave him explain the modus operandi of the Modern Barn aed also what the Company terms the "best wired stick in the world" would do well to call and see him, or if they wish he will call at their residence anywhere in the county. You may talk about 'holding on" men, but Mr. W. W. Perry, of Rileya X Roads, this county can '"take the cake." On Monday last a mule hitched to a. buggy was standing in front of J. S. Barrow & Son's, and seated in the bug jry was Mr. Perry's .daughter.- The . mule became frightened and made a break to run up Main street, when Mr. Perry made a spriug for the bridle. Catching the reins near the mule's mouth he swung to him, and never turned loose until the mule had dragged l.im in front of Mayor Ellis' residence." After passing Carlile's store the mule took the side-walk, and the most won derful part of it was he missed all the trees and fences and nobody was hurt. The young huty very sensibly remained seated in the buggy. Had she attempt ed to .jump out no doubt she would have been very badly hurt. Eagle Hotel here is ready and to take stock -m a large, convenient hotel building in Louisburg. like, a great many others he thinks that jthe present location of the Eagle is Ithe proper place for the new building, and the Times thinks so too. Now what say our business men and citizens? What says the Board of Trade ? If it will take hold of the matter, the Times believes it will not be long before some thing is done: Cotinty Commissioners. . The board met on the 6th and 7th, all members present except Chairman Col lie, who was detained at home by sickness. Geo. Winston was elected Chairman pro. tem. Minutes of last meeting were read and approved. The monthly allowance to Henderson Ilarris was reduced from $5 to 3. The bond of. J. R. Johnson, cotton-weigher for Youngsville was received. Henry and Susan Wilder were allowed $1 each as paupers. J. B. Glascow was allowed to "take Allen Foster by paying costs. Bachus Davis and wife were allowed $1 each as outside paupers. Report of Keeper of Poor House was received. Report of grand jury was received and filed..,, Geo. W.Ford was allowed to take Geo. Day out of jail at $7 per month,: provided he pay $7 in advance. Messrs Collie and Young were appoint- combule. - The members, of the trust were selling cotton at 55 cents per doss en; the Merricks, being less known, at 50 cents. :The trust reduced to 47, and Merrick responded by a cot to. 42 3-10, That is wheie the figures . now. stand, but in spite of the losses, which are divided, the trust threatens a further cut . ... . ( At the town election in Franklin ton last Monday B. F, BullockJr., was elect ed Mayor with the following (Jouiuiission ers: B. W. Ballard, N. Y. GiHey, J. S. Joyner, II. W. Fuller, Asbury Fuller. We are pleased t learn that Rev. B.

This movement will touch p. cord in every heart that gladly responds in sweetest sympathy to every vibration of human -misfortune, and it will awake those strains of charity whi-jh flow out so sweetly and so musically for, the healing of the wounds inthe bosoms of the poor, the. needy and distressed." And in contributing to this fund we otter no alms, but tribute. Yes, tribute of re cognition ot" valorous services rendered amid the .booming of cannon, the rattle of musketry and the clashing of sabres when death breathed in every ale. and io a nis siory m a f-oiaiei s wan. i es, let us pay tribute for such services, and let us give them a home, and make their closing scenes calm, serene and peace ful yea, like the tranquil closing of a beautiful da v. when the whole heavens are aglow with the radiant promises of a bright to morrow. Wilson Mirror. OUR BXCELLENT GOVERNOR. Daniel G. Fowle would be a man-of mark anywhere. He is a delightful ora tor, a very pleasant conversationalist, of great geniality, and his benevolent countenance and kindly manner wins all hearts. lie is sometimes called a vain man by those who spy out the little crevices of character, but vanity is the least of all faults, indeed, it is the pre servative virtue, as it is the desire of approbation from the wise and virtuous. Governor Fowle is in full sympathy with every movement for the benefit of North Carolina, and when he retires from the foremost office in the State he will deserve to be, and will be ranked as one of our most useful and most popu lar Governors. Elizabeth City Economist. TO SCHOOL COMMITTEEMEN AND TEACHERS OF POBLIC SCHOOLS. At A regular meeting of the State Board of Education on April 2d the following text-books were adopted and ordered to be used in all public schools of the State: Holmes' New Readers, Holmes' History of the United States, Maury's Revised Geographies, SanfonTs Arithmetics, Worcester's Dictionaries, Harvey's Grammars, McGuftey's Re vised Primer, Stephen.'s History of the United States, Goodrich's American Child's History of the United States, Swinton's Language Primer, Harring ton's Spelling Book, Steeds Abridged Physiology, Moore's School History of North Carolina, North Carolina Writing Books, North Carolina Speaker, Eclee tic Copy Books and James Southern Selections. The Board also recom mended teachers and com;mite33 lo purchase Cobb's New School Map "of North Carolina to be used in connec tion with geography and hfstory teach ing. It should be borne in mind that the law compels the selected books to be used in public schools, whereas here tofore their use has been simph' recom mended. The Board further urges that a North Caroliua Depository for the public school books be made with Alfred Williams & Co., at Raleigh, so that all the books on the list can be obtained bv dealers or teachers on the same terms as are given bv the New York Depositor'. Order sheets for all the books on the list may be obtained from Alfred Williams & Co. I also call atten tion to the fact that Rekl & Kellogg's Grammars have been dropped by the State Board from the list, and Harvey's substituted in their place. The attention of teachers is called to the following section of the School j w: Skctiox-41. That in ad dition to the requirements of obtaining a tirst-class certiiicate. as now provided by Section 25GG of the Code, as amended by lLvs of 18S5, the applicant must, from and after one year from the ratifi cation ot this act, stand a satisfactory examination upon some Yooks on school economy and theory and practice of teaching, to be selected by the State Superintendent of Public Instruction. In compliance with the above section the State Superintendent lias selected Page's Theory and Practice of Teach ing. I most earnestly urge upon Com mitteemen and teachers to bear in mind that the above laws must be obeyed. - Very Respectfully, John N. Harris, County Superintendent. leath of Mrs. K. W. Funnan.
