Will you attend the temperance meetings here to day. Next Wednesday is Ash Wednesday, the beginning of Lent. Tub person who suffered untold agony should have told somebody.

TllE young lady who expressed her mind should receive it back by "mule." It must have been dark when Adam ate the apple, because it was after Eve. Fishing Creek did her best to break aM former high water records last week. The mads will be weighed nn all the roads in this State commencing the 26th.

Tl was several miles wide on each Ihe Atlantic Cast Line lailmad and ;,i one place it was overflowing. A force of hands was kept there at wui k on it and all (rains were fligged so they cu!d proceed cautiouMy. Yuu hear it aim ost everywhere and read it in the newspapers, that Simmons Liver Regulator is the best liver remedy, and the best spring medicine, and the best blood medicine. "The only medi cine of any consequence that I use is Simmons Liver Regulator." So wrote Mr. K. A. Cobb, of Morgantou, N. C. And W.F. Park, M.l) , of Tracy City, Tenn , writes: "Simmons Liver Regu lator is the best." Temperance People. The second quarterly meeting of the Halifax coun ty Temperance Society begins at Emry's Hall today at l.',0. A pleasing programme has been ar ranged, consisting of music, recitations and interesting addresses. The public generally is most cordially invited to attend. The meeting will be called to order by President Troy promptly at the hour named in the programme. Accounts for His Silence. Old Joe Whitaker, of Enfield, says he has been so busy "wrapping 'em up" that he has not had time to let his friends hear from him. The fact that he is rushing off winter goods at unheard of prices accounts for the rush of customers who crowd his store. He does not believe in circus advertising, "at cost for 30 days" and other humbuggery, but modestly announces bis intention to have a great clearance sale before spring goods come iu. Dr. Wood's Bui Suit. Dr. W. R Wood, of Scotland Neck, has instituted suit to recover half a million dollars damages from the United States Govern ment, for infringing on his patent "or electric light buoys. It seems that Dr. Wood obtained a patent iu 1890, and in 1 8 8 8 the government suddenly adopted his system. Tho case will come up in tho Court of Claims, this Spring. Dr. Wood thinks ho has a good case against the government and it is thought by many that he will win. Birthday Reception. The ladies of the Aid Society of the Methodist Episcopal church at Halifax gave a birthday receplion at Froelich's hall in that town lust night. The invitations were gotten up in a neat and attractive style and accompany ing each card was a little sack, and every one receiving it was requested to bring or send it back with as many cents as years they were old. We acknowledge, with many thanks, the receipt of an invita tion and regret very much wo could not be present. Tobacco Warehouses. The busi ness men of Enfield have wisely decided to build tobacco, warehouses. Enfield is the center of the tobacco belt of the county and there is no reason why it should not become a great tobacco mar ket. The business men there are all energetic aud have entered enthusiast! cally into the project anil its success is assured. By reference to notice else where it will be seen that Mr. R. B. Britt, the secretary of the company in vites bids for the building of two ware bouses. Tauiioro Convocation. The Con vocation of'Tarboro is in session this week at Bmleboro, Rev. W. J. Smiili, of Scotland Neck, dean of the convoca tion, presiding. The convocation embraces the Episco pal churches of Halifax, Edgecombe, Northampton, Warren, Wilson and Nash. Rev. Edward Benedict, rector of Grace Episepal church here, and also rector of the church at Warrenton is in attendance. 1 he convocation will be in session until Friday night. The people of Battleboro are entertaining the visiting clergy and laity in that excellent, hospitable style for which old Edgecombe is noted. Battleboro is a nice little townj situated on the main line of the Wilmington and Weldon railroad, thirty miles below this place. The Puopkr Tl jib When the most bcuelit is to be derived from a good med icine is early in the year. This is the sea son when the tired body, weakened or gans and nervous system yearn for a building medicine liko Hood's Sarsapa rilla. Many wait for tho opening spring weather and, in fuel, deiay giving atten tion to their physical coodilion so long that a long siege of sickuess is inevita ble. To rid tho system of the impurities accumulated during the winter season, to purify the blood and to invigorate tho whole system, there is nothing equal to Hood's Saisaparilla. Don't put it off but take Hood's Sarsaparilla now. It will do you good. Read the testimonials published in behalf of Hood's Sarsapa rilla, all from reliable, grateful people. They tell the story.

A washout on the Weldon and Kiuston branch of the Atlantic Coast Line, be tween Tillery and Scotland Nck caused. wreck of tho southbound freight train last Thursday which left here at 7 a. m. The wreck occurred where there a fill of the track and the washout could not bo seen by the engineer. The engine nd some of the freight cars passed safe- over, and then the track gave way and several cars wcro derailed and piled up, No mail train passed over the road during that day and it was late Friday morning before the wreck was cleared and the track made secure enough for tho re sumption of traffic over the line. Cap i -lIFT . t tain w, ji. jones was conductor in charge. No one was hurt and blame attaches to any of tho crow. It was an accident unavoiderable. A young man in Lowell, Mass , trou' bled for years with a constant succession of boils on his neck, was completely cured by taking only three bottles of Aycr's Sarsaparilla. Another result of the treatment was greatly improved digestion with increased avoirdupois Correct Styles.

Old man Solomon Wythe, one morning walked into the court house at Jackson, N. C, and his conversation being loud and bois terous to disturb the court, the Jud;e said: "Mr. Clerk enter a fine of fifty dollars upon that loud talking man over there." After court adjourned, the Sheriff applied to old man Solomon for the fifty dollars, who, just a t this time, observed the Judge passing by, went up to him and said: "Look here, Mr. Judge, how in the h II did you and this hero d d Sheriff make it so much? Can't you afford to take a little less? I'll go to jail beforo I'll pay that much." Solomon's face showed he uieut na disrespect, though terribly iu earnest. The Judgo replied: Well, then, old man, how much can you pa)? ' Well," snid Solomon, "I'll pay twenty- live, or go to jail." Then said the Judge: You go to the Cleik and pay him twen ty-five dollars, and then go home, and don't you come to Jackson again while I am holding court." Solomon ubeyed, but the Judge, beforo ho left, released the fine and directed the Clerk to return him the twenty-five dollars. John R. Drake, the nitty and sensi ble Clerk of Northampton Court, in ante helium days, was afflicted with two voices coarso and fine ho would start course and end fine. His desk was right under where the Judge sat, A witness was pre sented, and the Judge said: "Mr. Clerk swear that witness." Drake started off in his coarso voice and ended with his fine. When he got through, the Judge Btraightencd up, and looking over the railing said: "Mr. Clerk, does it take two Clerks to swear one witness in this court?1 Will Build a Vault. By refer ence to notice in another column it will be seen that the county commissioners have wisely decided to build a firo proof vault for the preservation of the county's valuable records, We think it a wise step and one that will meet with tho approval of the major lty of the citizens ot Halilax county. The vault is to be built upon the plans submitted by the St. Louis Art Metal Company. We have examined these plans and specifications and urge upon the com missioners the importance of holding every bidder strictly to the murk In no case should inferior materials be used. mere are numbers ot people who can build what they call fire proof buildi ngs. but will they be dry and keep the records as they should be kept? Now that the vault is to be built it would be the poor est sort of economy to accept bids below what first class material and work would cost, lite vault is to be constructed on scieniiGc principles and it requires skill und experience in such matters. We learn that tho work can be done and that the payments can be made in fivo years, divided into five equal installments, and that tho vault will be guaranteed to come up in every way to the requirements or not a dollar will be exacted. We do not dictate to the commissioners, of cour.-e, as to who shall havo the contract, nor is this an advertisement for any one. We write it simply in the interest of the tax payers of the county. If you intend to spend their money in a vault, then, we say, by all means give the contract to some one who has ihe capital, experience and skill to construct such work We have learned of several vaults constructed by underbiddors which fail to give satisfac tion Do not take any substitute for the plans and specifications submitted by the 8t Louis Art and Metal Co.
