Important business meeting of the Y.
M. C. A. to-night. ,
Mr. and Mrs. Jas. Hodges, of Winston,
are here this week visiting relatives.
Last Court furnished several accessions
to the county chain gang, both male and
female,
Mr. J. T, Harrison will put in a stock
of groceries at the stand formerly occu
pied by Mr. Davidson.
Mr. Mangum, of Winston, is fitting up
. a a .. a :.!.. 11.. a.
to putting in a stock of fruits aud gro
ceries.
The many friends of R. M. Payne
(Mai) will be pleased to learn that he
has moved back to Salisbury from Wins
ton. Kluttz A Rendleman have something
to say to the people of Rowan in our
advertising columns. Read aud "profit
by It.
Our merchants say that Christmas goods
are being rapidly disposed of already, and
those who call early will get pick and
choice.
The water furnished by onr water
works, is found to be splendid drinking
water and is excellent for all domestic
purposes.
A large fish (red horse) weighing about
twelve pounds, was exhibited on our
streets last Tuesday. It was caught in
South River.
Dr. Rumple preached a special sermon
to the young men on Sunday night, sub
ject: ''How to build a character." It Was
able, interesting and instructive. .
Robt. L. Ramsay, who has been very
sick with pneumonia for the last week,
and whose life was almost despaired of,
we are happy to state is improving.
Persons wanting to join the clubs of
Rendleman & Rusher aud D. A. Sitford,
are requested to see these geutlem en
and renew with them before the first of
January.
The protracted fair weather has kept
the price of wood within reasonable
bounds, aud many have taken advantage
of a flush market to lay in a full supply
for the winter.
The services at the Y. M. C. A. next
Suuday morning, at 9:30, will be con
ducted by Messrs. Brenizer and Sides.
The subject will be faith. A cordial in
vitation is extended to all.
t Sportsmen from the north are not so
numerous as formerly around this part
of the hunting grounds this season, owing
no doubt, to the fact that all of the laud
is posted as it should be.
The revival meetings in Raleigh, con
ducted by the Rev. Mr. Pearson, are still
going on with unabated interest, and
largo numbers of converts are being
added every'night.
It is with pleasure we note the reten
tion of Rev. Mr. Bobbitt and Rev. Mr.
By rd at their old charges. The sending
them to other fields would have been very
much regretted by the people of this dis
trict. Engineer Moore lately ran his engin e
111 miles on the Western road, making
17 stops, in two hours and thirty min
utes. This is fast time, and could not be
accomplished unless the road was in first
class order.
Attention Is called to the advertise
ment of X. P. Murphy in another column.
He receives new groceries every week,
and is thus enabled to have them fresh
all the time. If you try him once you
wHl go tfiere often.
Alamance has4aken a fall in the last
week or- two among our merchants, it
lias none down by the quarter aud half
cut a yard until it now stauds at 5,
' and the end is not yet. We are making
our arrangements to clean out the town
on the Alamance question when it reaches
1 cent a vard. .
" ' F r
We propose adding a County Jjocal
column to the Watchman and want all
our friends to send us short items of any
thing of interest from their neighborhood
We want to please our country subscrib
ers and we know that they are all inter
estel in what is going on in other part?
f the county.
Big crowds on our streets last Satur
day. Almost any thing a person wanted
could be bought on the public square,
from a horse to a dog and from a bale of
cotton to a pint of chestnuts. A more
quiet and orderly crowd could not be
found in any town of our size from Mur
phy to Smithville.
It would seem as if some artist of hap
py discrimination had used his best
efforts in accumulating the superbly
beautiful stock ot? silverware that is now
on exhibition and for sale at W. II
Reisner's jewelry store. A description of
what is there is next to impossible but to
and see for yourself. He is ul wavs pleas
ed to show his goods and when you hear
the prices you will hardly fail to buy.
A letter from the Rev. Mr. RainsPrd,
of New York, says he is likely to lie in
Salisbury on uext S unlay, and is willing
to preaeh for us if he is here. In case he
comes he will be expected to preach at
the Episcopal Church, both in the morn
ing and at night.
It would pay some of our country
friends who are in the habit- of hauling
large quantities of wood to town every
year, to lease a lot and establish a wood
yard. It could be stocked after crops are
laid by in the summer, and while the
roads are in good condition.
Our esteemed contemporaries, the
Greensboro Patriot and Western Sentinel
arc in a wrangle oyer the tobacco mar
kets of their respective towns, each claim
ing highest prices paid for the leaf. Set
tle the matter, gentlemen, by allowing
Salisbury to act as umpire. Bring your
tobacco to Salisbury if you want big
prices.
It seems that Christmas trees are to be
in vogue here again this year. Some oi
our Sunday schools have already appoint
ed soliciting committees who were can
vassing the town for funds last week. It
is indeed pleasure to the children; but the
decorating that is usually done at such
occasions is damaging to the church
buildings,
least of it.

Dr. Furr, Stanly's champion fisherman,
was in town last Friday, and reported the
red horse fishing in the Yadkin, near
Hock h ol e, as excellent. Thursday morn
ing he went to a hole that he has baited
and in six bites caught five red horse and
one sucker, the smallest red horse weigh
ing over four pounds and the largest ten
pounds. This is not meant for a fish
stow but the pure unadulterated truth
Guilford county has taken the initia
tive among the old counties, in the way
01 remodeling her Court House, to con
form to the surrounding of the thrifty
town of Greensboro, her county site
Such improvements on public buildings
are an index to acuunty'a prosperity ,and
is calculated to im ureas favorably that
i -
class of people who are just new travel
ing over the State on the look Olu for
homes and suitable locations to engage
iu business. We are not grumbling but
suggest that Rowan keep pace with her
neighbors.
There is a remarkable lot of business
going on just now in Salisbury, in a
visit to some of the stores, last Saturday,
we found that KIuttz& Reudleinan's was
crowded, and it taxed to the utmost nine
busy clerks to wait upon the customers.
The same could be said of the Racket
Store, with equally as many if not more
clerks. On the other side of the street
the clerks at VanWyck & Schultz were
as busy as bees, aud it was the same way
at Meroney's, and the same at Julian &
Watson's aud Young & Bjstain's. Our
count ry friends must have been blessed
with good crops judging by the money
spcut here.
President's Message.
We send out as a supplement this week
the President's Message in full. We do
this kuowing that our patrons will ap
preciate it.
Musical Entertainment.
The parlors of Mrs. Neave was filled
to overflowing, last Friday night, by Che
parents and friends of her pupils. It was
the occasion of a rehearsal given by the
pupils of the Neave Music School, and
was a very enjoyable affair. The chil
dren acquitted themselves handsomely,
and a great deal of praise was bestowed
both on the performers aud their able
teacher.
Apron Bazar and Art Gallery.
me King's JJaugiiters will give an
apron bazar at the lioyden House to
morrow uight, where refreshments of all
kinds will be served. There will be an
art gallery in connection with it where
will be shown some very high works of
art. We have had the pleasure of seeing
a few of these and they are truly mcrito
rious. The entertain mcut is to be given
for the benefit of the Presbyterian church
The young ladies should be encouraged
iu this effort by your attendance. Ad

I shall be with you, and I'm glad of it." and an

The deceased was in several respects a re
markable person, but in nothing more so than
the clearness and power of her memory, which
seemed to grasp aud hold iucidents and ereats
n relation to families, persons, and things in
both the town and the surrounding country, to
uegree most wonderful. Hue really seemed
never to have forgotten anything worth remem
bering, whether of her personal knowledge or
gathered -from others ; and for years it was the
nabit of citizens who desired information not
of record, to go to her for it. and they rarely
tailed to obtain it. W bile writing the History
of Rowan County Dr. Kumple had frequent oc
casions to consult this highly esteemed relict
of the early times for hints and facts important

with her ends forever the knowledge of many
things of the past of which she alone had a
clear recollection. Though in feeble health for
many years, she retained her mental faculties,
and to the last her conversation was pleasing;
and interesting.

Alis Heard was descended from an ancient

family consisted of six sons and four daughters.
The sons were John Lewis, Charles, Horace,
Adrian, William, and Marcus. The daughters:
Elanore, Christina, Mary, and Julia. The hist

survivors of this large family which, 60 years

NOW. .
As th ere is a tide in the affairs of men, which
taken at its flood leads on to fortune," so may
it as truthfully be said that communities have
opportunities which, if availed of, will lead to
creneral prosperity : and there are occasions
when there arc strong tides towards moral and
relicrious advancement. Such a tide we might
almost say a tidal wave has recently visited
San 'Miry. It has permeated every quarter, and
all have rU it influence, and the religious
sentiment has ?irrei the community to its pro
foundest depths. --.
It is too often the case u:it.ncli revivals nave
hie a followed by reactions, anu the ben.rr-Uil
effects of the flood tide have been borne aw.iv
by the ebb. Is this to be our experience ? One
great benefit that has come to us on the flood,
is the increase in membership of the loung M.
Christian Association, and 4lie earnest religious
sentiment that pervades it. How shall this be
best fostered for all future time ? is the ques
tiou that needs most serious consideration, both
tor the Association and the general community
which is so seriously affected by the moral sta
tus of the young men who are now beginning
to have a voice in shaping its affairs, and who
must soon assume the direction of them. So,
what affects them must affect the whole town'
of Salisbury, to some extent now, and to a
greater extent in the near future. Iherefore to
keep the Association alive, and render substan
tial aid in every effort to firmly establish it,
should be considered a privilege, as it is cer
tainly the duty, of every citizen who has at
heart the future moral improvement of the com
munity. Especially is it so to every parent who
would elect to have his son surrounded rather
by the moral atmosphere of the Young Men's
Christian Association than the association of a
bar room. The Y. M. C. A. .has in contempla
tion the- purchase of a site, to build a home of
its own, where access can be had to literature
that will be improving, intellectually and mor
ally ; a gymnasium for physical training, and
appliances for healthful recreation, and all sur
rounded by moral iutiuencies ; and it is their
intention to call upon the citizens to assist them
in this enterprise. This is an opportunity for
every citizen to show, by substantial evidence
his estimate of the value of the moral senti
ment now pervading the community, of his de
sire to have it fostered and extended, and of
appreciation of the efforts of the young men
towards the establishment of a moral status
that shall last for all the future.

Dan itiver Coal Surrey.
Under the auspices of the Board of
Agriculture investigations are being
made of the coal deposit in this district.
The citizens of the vicinity have great
faith in the final success of the undertak
ing and have raised about 100 dollars to
add to a like sum supplied by the Board
of Agriculture. This amount is deemed
sufficient for the purpose and an experi
enced mining engineer and coal expert,
Mr. H. B. Kobson. of London. Em;., has
been placed in charge of the examination.
He is not a stranger- in this country but
has been engaged for a number of years
in doing just this kiud of work for some
of the large railroad corporations, and be
is considered a very reliable authority on
the subject of coal formations. In his
first report to the Board of Agriculture
he says: "The vein called No. 1 has been
followed 120 feet horizontally into the
hill and carries steadily a thickness of 5J
feet of soft bright coal, but very friable
and almost devoid of bitumen, but as it
has uot reached a greater depth than 22
to 25 feet below the grouud surface I ex
pect to find it harder and improved when
lower depths and more cover is reached ;
ana to tnat cud l nave nanus quarrving
out downward a cross entry to meet the
same vein at 50 or more feet greater
depth. Vein No. 2 one mile south-west
of the above has been carried similarly
90 feet uuder. Rock cover has been
much disturbed by rock intrusions but
presents about 3 to ? feet of somewhat
harder coal of tne same general character
as No. 1. On the opposite slope of the
same valley after several failures opened
a vein of the soft coal which for 20 feet
into the hill has carried steadily the
extraordinary thickness of 8 J to 9 feet
almost clear of slaty matter or other iu-
terlaminations. Our continued opera
tions thereon will bring us under a heavy
hill cover and I hope to fiud it improving
as we get ou though the thickness may
diminish. I have had men out one mile
further southwest from the above and
after much delving among the rocks that
so often fall down over and conceal coal
outcrops, I have just received a specimen
of hard coal with cubical grain and
promising appearance and it seems to
promise an early outlook for a vein of
good Quality of hard coal when we gtt
fairly thrOVgh the debris and fairly iuto
it. I have had much troublesome re
search on a hill near Stokcsburg, where
a thick vein of soft coal shows about 7 to
1 feet and about 40 feet below which we
have pursued a thin vein of hard coal
which has been squeezed down from 2
feet in thickness to a few inches by over-
tying rocks and by upthrows, but I am
continuing my pursuit as the coal is good
and may enlarge when we get further in
to the hill, which has been much disturb
ed and is changeable in dip, &c. Alto
gether I am confident that, although we
mve no useable coal at present before us,
we shall be able by further research and
following up our present attainments, to
give a good account of the 'Dan Coal'
within a few months of further opera
tions. "
