Salisbury is considering the pro position for an eight-story fire proof building, the upper floor of whioh is to be occupied by the Old Hickory Club, and above that a roof garden and theatre.

Crawford O. Gillon, whose se rious illness we noted in our last issue, died Wednesday afternoon at the Stokes sanitorium at Salis bury, where he had been taken several days before to have an operation for appendicitis per formed. He was in a precarious condition when taken there and his case was considered hopeless from the first. Mr. Gillon was 48 years of age and leaveB a family. He was one of the most successful and up-to-date farmers in the county. He was a most consis tent member of the Presbyterian church and a man-of the highest character.

Of course the eowns worn Preparations for Dixon's New Play. The costuming of any play al ways requires much care and thought and in some cases when the scenes are laid in the far past weeks of research must sometimes be made before absolute accuraoy is attained in design, cloth and colorings. The theatre-goer who has not made a study of this sub ject would naturally suppose, however, that for a play like "The Traitor" by Chauniug Pollock and Thomas Dixon, -Jr., it would be comparatively er.9y to provide the proper costumes. This is not the case, utten it is more dimcult to correctly garb characters who lived in 1872, the period of this play, than those who lived hun dreds of years ago. In the cage Holt, J. S. Carr, H.

The minister refused it, telling Lamance that he didn't want to read the papers and didn't want them left at his house. Lamance stopped to ar gue, and in the course of his talk intimated more or less directly that the preacher's viracity was questionable. Then the preacher passed the socialist one with his fist.
