Forbes, of Pitt county, is one of the most successful tobacco farmers in North Carol inn. Upon eighteen acres last year he made a crop of the weed which he sold for $3,500. Upon seven acres of this he netted $2,100. He sold 1,800 pounds at an average of forty cents a pound. Two vears ago he sold a small quantity at $3.05 per pound. Mr. Forbes is one" of the pioneers of tobacco culture in Pitt county, having planted the first there six years ago. At that time not a single pound had ever been grown there, while last year the crop sold brought to the county $100,000. Greensboro Record: From talks with fruit-growers in the city this week, we regret to learn that the most 'of the plums and peaches were killed by the cold weather of Saturday, Sunday and Monday. Greensboro is forging ahead. By the extension of the city limits yesterday her population was more than doubled, and the city given a fresh impetus on the road to prosperity and development. It may not he generally known to the outsHe world, but Greensboro has within its corporate limits, on Spring Garden street, one of the finest mineral springs in the State. The owner. Rev. R. R. Moore, allows any of our citizens to get warer free, and hundreds of gallons are consumed by our town folks every week. Greenville Reflector: Most hor rible developments in connection with the shooting of young Will Moore have come to light since the account of the affair published in the last issue of the Rey'ector, His own brother, John R. Moore, is charged with the bloody crime. The shooting occurred on Fri day night and some slight clues which close observers detected the next day caused suspicion to rest on him. Each succeeding day brouget out develop ments that made the clue stronger, until on Tuesday he was charged with mak ing a second attempt to kill his now al most dead brother. Dr. Bagwell, who was attending the wounded man, left six doses of morphine with the family with explicit instructions for ad minister ing it. The family knew nothing of the suspicion that rested upon John, and for awhile left him alone in the room. While alone he gave his brother the whole of the morphine at one time. The physi cian happened to go by the house not long after this and stopped in to see the wounded man. Noticing a pecu liar change in his condition he investi gated and discovered what had occurred. It was only through his skill and by quick work that the physician arrested the deadly effects of the poison. When the circumstances became known and were talked outside much-feeling was aroused against him and this went so high that on Wednesday morning he ran away. Jealousy is said to be the cause of his rash act. The last fnforma tion from the wounded man reports his condition more favorable and there is hope that he will recover. Mr. Shade Wooten died at his home near Centrevilie, Pitt county, Tuesday March 24th, in the 84th year of his age. He had been quite ill for several months and his death was not altogether unex pected. OUR STATE CONTEMPORARIES. We admire the man who has manful ly to contend for what he believes to be right.

Raleigh News-Observer. The Hungarians are giving trouble in Pennsylvania. The Italians and Poles there seem to be on their side also. The difficulty is not about wages, but as to whether the working men are to be shot down at midnight and whether riot shall rule or not. At Morewood several Hungarians were killed, and more trou ble expected. This is another example of the fruits of free and unrestricted im migration to America. Greenville Re flector. Now Try This.
