Sowcare told by Warren. The hay ride Tuesday night, par ticipated in by Misses May Gay Sue n-ivis Minnie Slocumb, Julia Gay, Messrs. C. E. Blouat, R. E. Cope land, S. A. and David Woodard, was up to the standard. Two negro men were arguing the question as to which was the biggest town, Wilson or Goldsboro, last Fri day. ' The argument produced blows and the little negro who cham pioned Wilson licked the Goldsboro advocate. 'Twas ever thus. Tuesday of last week, Halifax boys defeated Wieldon's team in a game ofballbya score of 12 to 4. The Halifax team offered Wilson's little wizard catcher, Earnest Nadal, $5.00 and expenses to catch the game for them. He declined to go. Mr. John Rawls left last week for the Northern markets. While away he will purchase an elegant line of jewelry, silver-ware, etc. All the latest things in his line will be shown. He is doing a mighty good business, and he knows how to suit his patrons. Mrs. Rawls accompanied him. Messrs B. J. Barnes and W. J. Bullock have formed a co-partnership in. the livery business.' They both know how to conduct such a business. Both have the means and the experience. They will succeed. And they have nice turnouts to drive to success' (or anywhere else) in. Rev. Mr. McArn tells a good one on the late Dr. Hodge, one of the Professors of Princeton Theological Seminary. D. Hodge once asked a student for a definition of eternity. The student, after some hesitation, replied that he used to know the definition, .but had fargotten it. "O my, my, my !" exclaimed Dr. Hodge, bringing his hand down forcibly upon the table. "What a calamity ! The only man in the uni verse that ever knew what eternity is has forgotten !" It may prove interesting to Wilson people to know that the New York Journal of Commerce devoted a column and a half editorial to a article by Rev. D. H. Turtle in the Raleigh Christian Advocate on pray ing for the dead. Mr. Turtle took the ground that such prayers were futile and not sanctioned by the Bible. The Tarboro Southerner says : " However one may differ with Mr. Tattle on the snbject, all must conccl' ; hat the extended article in this h.li standing paper retuting his argument is decidedly complimentary to the eray matter in Bro. Turtle's head." Good Selections. The Advance right heartily con gratulates Mr. J. D. Bardin, Wilson's new Superintendent of Public In struction. He is a young man of vim, ability and learning, aftable and 1 1 Ml popular,, and will awaken genuine educational enthusiasm in the county. Dr. Albert Anderson was re-elect ed County Superiatendent of Health. He has made an efficient officer. Vigorous, scientific and enthusiastic, we see that the Boards chose wisely and well in re-electing him. In Tribulation Hall. Ben Whidey, disorderly, fined $5 and costs.

Yes, It Hag. It has been abundantly established that tobacco can by profitably raised in liastern North Carolina. Indeed it seems that it is to be the crop of the future. In a visit to Wilson, not long since, this writer saw the highest grade of tobacco, that was produced in the neighborhood, and stored in the warehouses of that progressive city.

And you saw, also, the livest to bacco town in the State, the best, most hospitable people in the world', and the prettiest town in existence.' And Wilson is also the largest cot ton market in the State. And all these things are noticed every day. Mr. Jake Edwards was in town last week. , m Mrs. W. W. Edwards left Satur day lor her home in Richmond. Mrs. M. A. Parker left Saturday to visit her daughter, ' Mrs. J. L. Home, near Whitakers. Miss Lula Gay is teaching school in Spring Hope.

The News About the Golden Weed, as the Advance Hears it. Capt. Pace returned Saturday from Virginia, where he had been on a drumming trip. Everybody will know we have a big market before the meeting re ceives the benediction. And it will be written that Wilson people are winners. Rev. J. T. Phillips, of Pitt, sold here last week for $75, $50, $25 and $20. He had some good tobac co. He said he would bring it, and he did. He says he has 2,000 pounds like that for which he received $75. A visitor in Wilson, Nash, Edge combe Granville and Vance counties N. C, reports flea bugs and firing on the hill and great damage to tobacco in two weeks past. The crop will not be nearly up to 1889 crop. Richmond Southern Tobcconist. The Wilson Warehouse sold to bacco last week from Pitt, Nash, Greene, Halifax, Wayne, Johnson, Edgecombe, Franklin and Wilson nine counties. Pace and Woodard are hustlers and have a "lead pipe cinch" on 4,000,000 pounds of tobac co for this season. The Planters Warehouse just sold the tobacco last week. Anderson, Jones and Co., are workers. They sold a shipment from South Carolina that pleased the owner. They are up to their ears in the business now, and like Oliver Twist, "still cry for more." But they have ample room for hand ling the tobacco of their patrons, and it is rolling in to them. GRITTY LEAF. There is one objection to South Carolina tobacco, as pretty as it is, independent of the difficulty in or dering it (and yet this latter apparent fault may be turned to good account,) and that is the fine sand that sticks to the gummy leaf, that is difficult and tedious to remove. As long as there is a bit there it will make a grit ty plug, and of all things disagreeable a chewer has to contend with is grit in tobacco. Southern Tobacconist. burn up on the hill. Then all are forced to conclude the crop will be ol a thin, inferior quality, of light weight. Only a comparatively small per cent of good and desirable to bacco will be found in this crop. A large per cent of common smokers and a fair per cent of common to me dium cutters may be made, but desirable plug stock will be scarce.

To push the efforts already made Mr. Coulter will address a mass meeting of the men the old men the middle aged men the young men in fact all sorts of men who are desirous ol seeing the work for the young men advanced and strengthened. .The mass meeting will be in the associa tion parlors, 8 o clock, Friday mght. Consider this a personal invitation to you, to be present. Don't keep the invitation to your self but spread the news ; tell your fathers, your sons and all your male friends about it, and then come your self. - 1 . This is The Stun. Now is the season, in fact, all the year round is the proper way to do it but now is the peculiar season for the business man to resort to his local newspaper to draw cash customers for his Fall stock of goods. An advertisement in the local newspaper is the most effective and judicious mode o advertising, ihere it is seen and read by the best people in the community and at a time when they are free from the business cares of the day. The circular letter, hand bill or card receives scarcely a pas sing 'notice, and if read at all is for gotten the next moment ; because the people are unusually busy when such advertising matter is forced upon them. Fence and dead-wall advertis ing teaches a certain class of people, it is true, but like the circular and hand-bill mode, it is forced into the hands of passers-bye, who have al ready made up their minds where they are going to trade from having read the advertising columns of their reputable home paper.

THE WAY THEY COME. Tuesday's Durham Sun says: We know our readers will agree with us when we say a mighty good citizen will leave us to-morrow in the person of J. G. Roney, who will go to Wilson, to make that his home for some tame. He goes to represent the American Tobacco Company on that market. His family will remain here however. Mr. Roney is one of our town commissioners and will send in his resignation at the next meeting. While we regret to see him leave us, still he has our best wishes for all that pertains to prosperity." Wilson is a magnet that draws 'em all. We hear that Mr. Roney is a popular, whole souled young man, and he is gladly welcomed to Wilson . OUR HOME MARKET. The Advance is sure it cannot say too much for it. The fact is that Wilson is a success. Repetition is un necessary, but it is so pleasing to us, and to the many men who sell their crop here, that we can t help it. Miss Wilson is a young and blooming lassie, but she is a winner with large and golden yellow wings. Her to bacco men are the stuff. People who come here know it. There were big breaks every day last week. This week starts out likewise. The to bacco is poor in quality, 'tis true, lor not much good is yet ready for the market. The men who sell their poor stuff here feel like they ought to come with their best. They will do it. And big prices will be paid for it. ABOUT THE CROP. Mr. S. P. Carr says that Creed Bird and other prominent tobacco raisers of West Virginia say that the West Virginia crop is also turning out very thin and poor, with the ex ceptions to the contrary. There will be a super abundance of green tobac cos. Of course stemmers will then predominate, as not much of the West Virginia crop is useful for fillers. Good, substantial, sweet, nutmeg colored fillers are already scarce and sell well, but they will be still higher, as the '91 crop, as it . now appears, will not afford them. Mr. D. Y. Cooper, of Henderson, says the 1 89 1 crop of tobacco will show common smokers and cutters and English stemming, with few good fillers or wrappers. The flea-bug is bad and August worm is t also depredating freely now. There is a plenty tobac co lor all, such as it is; and Rich mond should sell her share loose. The 1890 crop made 500 pounds to the barn, the 1891 crop will average about 350 pounds to the barn. The crop of 1 89 1 will be 25 per cent less in weight than 1890, which was 25 per cent, in weight above average, if not the same in area. Richmond Southern Tobacconist. AN EXPERT'S OPINION. Our Advertisers, Read the advertisement of ander, Morgan & Co., cotton com mission merchants, Norfolk, Va. Mr. Ed. Barnes lost his pocket book yesterday and offers to pay a liberal reward for its return. See adv. Heilbroner says he knows how to buy goods, and that assures their quick sales. His store is just chock -'o-block, and he wants to see you before you buy. Perhaps it will interest you to read what the Cash Racket man has to say. If you are a buyer it certainly will and we are all buyers. II reading facts in the cold type don't stir you, we know a visit to the Cash Racket will. "How to Manage Husbands" is the question with some wives. J. & D. Oettinger believe they can tell you and their way is a good one. How to manage to get a wife is the question disturbing the masculine mind. They may tell that, too. See adv. We feel sure every reader of the Advance will see the big advertise ment of Pace & Woodard of the Wilson Warehouse. They are no strangers to our readers. Watch the Advance next week and we will tell you something about this Ware house. L. Edwards, who claims to be the "Father of Low Prices," is right back here. He tells you that he is here to sell his immense stock for not a cent ol profit. He is doing this to advertise himself. Is he not right in calling it a "happy time" for the people of this section? Mr. Jake Cohen is head salesman, and he is assisted by Messrs Tohn Lee, Collin McNair and Dave Goulvee, who will be happy to sell you what you need or desire. Give him a call.

A large crop of tobacco was planted this year, and at one time the indica tions were that a large crop would be produced, but the excessive rains have completely blasted all hopes of a good crop throughout the country, where such heavy and continued rains have fallen. The crop, to a great extent, has become diseased and the most of it hcpeslessly so. The rain has caused the root of the plarjt to become so much diseased that the plant is showing it in various ways. Where it is not completely drowned and rotting off, the effects of the weather may be seen over large piles by the burnt leaves, and other fields have what is sometimes called frog-eye, black-rot, and some localities are ruined by frenching. We hear some persons argue that the tobacco plant is very recuperative and will recover irom almost any disaster that may befall it ; but allow us here to state that tobacco once seriously injured by wet weather never recovers from it, and tnis posi tion will be sustained by all the best informed men who have had large experience in the cultivation of to bacco. Then, if this be so, what can we expect from the 1891 crop ? The crop will be forced to be cut green or That Your Hair may retain its youthful color, fullness, and beauty, dress it daily with Ayer's Hair Vigor It cleanses the scalp, cures humors, and stimulates a new growth of hair Dr. J.
