The aldermen of Greensboro have adopted an ordinance, to become ef fective February 1st, providing that no hog pen shall be located within 200 feet of any residence, well or spring, or within 100 feet of any street. It is generally regarded as a very wise pro viston, but the enforcement of the law will doubtless meet with considerable opposition from those who care more for the porkers than for the sanitary welfare of the city. Rosenblatt A Ellington, the jewel ers, whose new adv. appears in another column, are opening up an extensive line of new goods, comprising gold and gold filled watches and jewelry, ster ling and silverplated ware of every description, cut glass, etc., and want our readers to inspect their stock.

Monday afternoon revenue officers made a raid on the illicit distillery of J. M. Staley, located near Julian.

Senator-elect Glenn and Represen tatives-elect Roberson and Whitaker held a conference here Saturday with the members of the dispensary board, the manager and the attorney to de cide when the dispensary should be closed, but were unable to reach any definite conclusion. Some contend that the institution should be allowed to continue until the end of the fiscal year July 1st. Were that to be done the present board of aldermen would be absolved from the responsibility of issuing license. In former days "home-made" cloth log was worn by men quite extensive ly, but of late years the practice has fallen Into general disuse. Occasion ally, however, there are exceptions, as in the case of one of the ministers at tending the Methodist conference which has just closed in this city. While here Rev. Dr. W. H. Leith wore a suit of clothes made in Elkin, where he has been stationed. r The wool from which the clothes were made was sheared from the sheep, carded, spun and made up into garments at that place. Through mistake Mr. Emsley Fields, a contractor and builder of this city, shot and wounded a young man by the name of Stevens Friday night. Mr. Fields was watching a house be is building, and from which he had been missing a quantity of material, in the hope of catching the thief. Young Stevens had been sent by his father for some brickbats to be used in walling a well, and through mistake, it is sup posed, he went to the house being guarded, wlh the result that he re ceived the load of shot intended for the thief. He was not seriously wounded. Spread Like Wildfire. When things are "the best" they be come "the best selling." Abraham II a re, a leading druggist, of Belleville, O., writes: "Electric Bitters are the best selling bitters I have haddled in 20 years. You know why? Most dis eases begin in disorders of stomach,! ver kidneys, bowels, blood and nerves. Electric Bitters tones up the stomach, regulates liver, kidneys and bowels, purifies the blood, strengthens the nerves, hence cures multitudes of mala dies. It builds up the entire system. Puts new life and vigor into any weak. sickly, rundown man or woman. Price 50 cents. Sold by C. E. Holton, Druggist. TOBACCO NOTES. Items of Interest to the Grower, the Dealer, and the Manufacturer. Among the well pleased farmers here yesterday was Mr. W. D. Whitesell, of Elon College, who sold a load for $90. Cable Brothers, Guilford county growers, were patrons of the Greens boro market the first two days of this weeks. Mr. Harry Dick, a Guilford farmer, was a well pleased patron of this market a few days ago. He sold 495 pounds for $61.09. Yesterday a quantity of tobacco that had been shipped from South Carolina was sold on this market. It all brought satisfactory prices. Mr. Walter Fleming will go to Stone vllie within a few days to take a posi tion with Mr. W. J. Blackburn, who is buying tobacco on that market. Messrs. I. R. and J. L. Cobb, both of Guilford, who were here last week, were so well pleased that they came back yesterday. Both made good sales W. H, Case, Esq., and Messrs. R. H. Angel, E. H. Price and A. B. Dillon were among the Guilford farmers who patronized the Greensboro market yes terday. Among the tobacco growers from eastern Guilford who made good sales here yesterday were Walker & Story, E. M. Huffines, S. W. Cobb and C. and J. S. Clapp. Washington correspondents express a conviction that no reduction will be given the tobacco interests from the present rate of tax at the coming ses sion of congress. Among the Rockingham farmers we noticed on the warehouse floors yester day were Mr. W. H. Brown and the Messrs. Carter, all of whom are always welcomed on the Greensboro market. Two Stokes county farmers who sold tobacco here a few days ago were Messrs. B. R. Ferguson and W. P. Hicks. The first named sold three grades of wrappers for 13, 26 and 41. Another grower who has been at tracted to the Greensboro market is Mr. J. M. Shaw, of Alamance county. He sold his first load here today, and it is unnecessary to add that he will come again. As an evidence of the satisfactory prices that prevail on the Greensboro market, It may be stated that not a single pound has been "taken in" dur ing the present week. But this is a common occurrence on this market. Sales on the Greensboro market are picking up steadily. This is solely due to the fact that the prices here are equal to what can be obtained on any market, and higher than prevail on many. The breaks here yesterday and today were heavy, and everybody, so far as is known, was pleased. Soon after the sales were over yesterday wagons began rolling in with tobacco for today's sales. The quarterly statements of the American and Continental Tobacco Companies were made public on last week. The net earnings of th6 Amer ican, after deducting all charges and expenses for management, etc., have been as follows: For one quarter end ing Sept. 30, 1900, $1,591,205.57; for quarter ending Sept. 30, 1899, $1,331,942. 79; increase, $239,262.78; for nine months ending Sept. 30, 1900, $4,666, 48416; for nine months ending Sept. 30, 1899, $3,392,961.35; increase, $1, 273,632.81. The net earnings of the Continental Tobacco Co., after deduct ing all charges and expenses for man agement, etc., have been : For quarter ending Sept. 30. 1900, $788 655.92; for six months ending Sept. 30, 1900, $2, 277,645.39; total net earnings for nine months, $3,066,301.31. The following is taken from the Weed, of Louisville, Ky. : Fickle for tune seems strange indeed when we come to look at certain individuals in the tobaoco trade of today and com pare them with other days. It is a case of up and down, and it seems al ways the most worthy do not stay up. In writing of Mr. W. T. Blackwell, founder of the Blackwell' Durham Tobacco Company, the Durham Her ald, of bis home city, has this to say: M01d Man Buck Blackwell was last week elected treasurer of this town, an office that pays something like $25 per month, and we suppose he was glad to get it. If the old man had one-tenth of what is owing him by men who are living easy around this town, he would forever be put beyond want." As his factory and name have been the making of Durham, it seems the town owes him more than this, at least the American Tobacco crowd does, anyway. Do you want a bargain in a buggy?
