Several youDg men of the town went out to the Catawba river last Friday on a fishing expedition, but when they ar rived at the river the water was too high to fish with any success. The cut worms in some sections of the town are very troublesome. Cabbage un l tomato plants and other garden truck are being destroyed in great quan tities by these troublesome pests. Mr. I'. A. Hoyle has been able to get up street several times lately after har ing been confined to his house for about three months. He last week spent sever al diys with his mother near Plateau. f tide Simon I lass, the oldest inmate of the County Home, passed through Newton Wednesday from his old home in the lower part of the county. He was on his way back to the County Home. Miss Caroline Wilson had the misfor tune u few days ago to lose a fine milch cow. The cow was eating the young branches from a tree when she slipped Win-mi bet ween a fork and hung herself.

One day last week Will Abernethy "aw making war on the English sparrows w'i" n small floberfc rifle, when he acci 'l' ntly shot himself in the leg. Dr. Camp bell cut out the ball which had ranged down the leg a few inches just under the "kin. A little soreness and a little lame ness is ull the "pester" it has given him. A subscription list is being circulated "round the county this week for the aid of Mr. Matthew Wilson of Bandy's, who on April the 19th was so uufortunate as to los.. everything in the world he pos sessed by fire. He is entirely dependant Upon the Contribution rif nthara more fortunate to keep his family going Cltlf.il 41... 4. , .. .? -- lUv in.-Al( crop can ue gatnerea in. Mr. W. A. Self has been nominated by the "wets" for Mayor of Hickory. A slight change was made this week in the schedule on the C. & L. R. R. The passenger train that used to arrive at 11:25 a. m., now arrives at 11:55 a. m., a id the freight that arrived at 9:40 a. m., now arrives at 9:00 a. m, Several parties were before Squire Shuford this week. All wereacquited but one George Motz, a colored boy who works at the livery stable, he was bound over to court on account of using" a dead ly weapon in the affray. The extra sent out by the Charlotte Observer, Monday morning is further evidence that it is one, of the best and brightest morning papers in the South. It gives the news when news is news re gardless of anything. Mr. A. A. Shuford has been appointed the Marshall from this County at the un veiling of the Confederate Monument at Raleigh, May 20th. A good man for the place and the honor could not have been more worthily bestowed. Mr. J. L. Wood will leave Thursday for Connelly Springs, where he goes to recuperate his health. Joe has great faith in the Connelly Spring water and well he may for it makes a new man out of him whenever he uses it. One day last week two boys, Albert Beard and Noah Poovy, were fishing on Clark's creek. They engaged in a scuttle when Beard became angry and cut Poovy witti his knife in the arm. As to the nature of the wound we were unable to learn. Mr. Charles O. Frier of Walton, New York is at the Summerrow House. He is looking for a farm in North Carolina and came especially to take a look at the lands of Catawba and Chatham Counties. We hope he will decide to buy in Catawba. At its recent meeting in Morganton, Concord Presbytery sent up an overture to the General Assembly of the Southern Presbyterian church, which meets at Dal las Texas May 16th, not to entertain any propersition looking to organic union with the Northern Presbyterian church. Rev. J. Alston Ramsey accepted the call from the Presbyterian church of Newton for one-fourth of his time, and Presbytery at Morp-anton. appointed Wm. W. Pharr, D. D. and Rev. W. R. McClelland to install him Pastor of New ton Presbyterian church on the second Sabbath in June. While Dr. Little and Mr. J. P. Yount were trying their markmanship, a few days ago at a mark on the court yard fence, a glance shot penetrated one of the windows in the Register's office. Both denied doing the shooting, but we believe they did decide that it was the same gun that shot Will Abernethy. The following marshalls have been selected by the two Literary Societies to act during the coming Commecement at Catawba College. Chief Marshall H. C. Coulter. Athena?n Society J. D. With- erspoon, P. F. Hedrick, H. S. T. Peeler. Philomathean Society W. W. Glenn, J. . Price, R. T. Cecil. Revs. J. C. Clapp, J. A. Foil and A. H. Smith with II. A. Forney Treasurer of Classes, left Tuesday evening to attend the Annual Classes of the Reformed church which meets at Calvary church near Thomasville," N. C. Maj. S. M. Finger, the delegate from this charge, who has been in Charlotte for several days will join them at Salisbury. Mrs. Ann Summerrow is at the sick bed of her mother-in-law, Mrs. Lewis Keener of Lincoln county. Mrs. Keener was 90 years old in February and is the only living grandchild of the pioneer Henry Widener. Owing to her extreme old age she is declining very fast and the hopes of her recovery are very slen der. The following parties from this county were tried at the Federal court, in Statesville : Noah Setzer. distilling ; f 2o fine. D. S. Helderaiau, distilling : f 100 fine. John and Wm. Johnson distilling; $75 fine. F. P. Little, making plans to defraud ; defendant to pay all costs. A. J. Drum, distilling ; fined f 75. Sylvanus Killian, defrauding taxes ; $100 fine. The Willing Helpers Circle of the King's Daughters will give an Indigo Social in the old Reformed church on Saturday night. They have prepared a very pleasant entertainment which will be free to all. Refreshments will be for sale ot the same time and all who are charitably disposed will find many good things offered them whfch will please the inner man. The entertainment will be gin punctually at 7:30 P. M. so that the social may close at a reasonable hour. We heard a church member remark to a delegate, who had been expatiating upon the kindness, hospitality and gump tious fare he had while in attendance re cently at a church court: ' I guess you had plenty of yaller legged spring chick ens 7" Imagine the brother's chagrin (who was a Methodist,) when the dele gate said. "No, there was a Methodist Conference just ahead of our Church meeting, that had cleaned up the crop, but we made out pretty well on turkey, shad, steak, old ham and such like." The Methodist brother had nothing more to say. To the Farmer We are requested to ask the officers and all others interested in the "Farmer's Mutual Fire In surance Company" of Catawba county to meet in Newton, May, Gth, 1895. The last Legislature amended the law, and it is neces sary that we meet. M. O. SlIEKRlLL.

Will the courts never g?t through with this scoundrel? We clip from a special sent to the Charlotte Observer the follow in0" It is thought that Hoke Se crest will be tried at this term. His leading counsel, D. A. Cov ington, has not yet arrived, and no day has been set for the trial. If the case is tried on its merits it is predicted that it will take a week or more. A large number of witnesses from a distance are here for this case, and the costs will be enormous. This man has almost broken up Burke county besides giving a great deal of worrv and trouble. What a pity that jus tice could not be meted out to such a man as this with more dispatch. Just such actions by courts, counsels and others is the reason Judge Lynch dwells about the public highways and cross-roads. It is admitted that this man is guilty of one of the most heineous crimes ever com mitted in this part of the State, then why cannot justice have its course, iet this man be punish ed as he deserves. Holland In J .11 After the officers had spent five days of unsuccessful search for J. R. Holland, the defaulting Char lotte bank cashier, he at eight o'clock last Sunday night sent a message to his brother-in law, Mr. W. E. Shaw to come to him at his hiding place. He and Mr. Shaw then went to Dr. McAden's, the president of the bank, and announced Holland's intention to surrender. With Dr. McAden they went to U. S. Commissioner Maxwell's who went with them to jail and placed Holland in charge of the jailer. Holland did not tell where he had been hiding but said he had never left the city bnt read the papers every day and knew every thing that had been done or said about him. He said he had onlv been hiding to give himself time to think over the matter and rest and that he had made uphis mind that he would rather go to the penitentiary than to become a wanderer for life in a foreign country. Holland was brought before U. S. Commissioner Max well on Tuesday and his bond fixed at 15,000. He readily gave this, and the aggregate amount ol the bond, volunteered by his admirers was $91,000. He was released at once and is now with his family in Charlotte. He will be tried at the June term of the TJ. S. Court. BlMkbarn tetter. For The Newton Enterprise. Blackbues, N. C , April 26, 1895 I hope you will give me epace in your valuable paper for a few items from this section of the county. There is new a good deal of ex citement throughout" this land of ours, end no one seems to know what the cause is unless it is the way our last election went : It seems that it has changed the people toward each other very differently to what they used to be. From my observation they have changed their religions life as well as their political life. This third party is the greatest curse to our land that we have ever witnessed. It ie breaking the claims of friendship between neigh' bom. It has demoralized our coun ty instead of reforming it. It has caused the fireside conversation to be unpleasant. It has even caused brothers to become angry with each other. I don't think it is right according to the teachings of our Savior and according to the commands of God, because they teach us that we must love our neighbor as- ourselves. Now bow can a man love one of these foolish third party men a him self ? - It is a strange thing that men will turn from a good thing and join hearts and bands with such an or. ganization as the third parly. If they would only stop for a moment and think they would Lever turn away from the Democratic party. A party that h- s protected us and made laws for our benefit. The party that has lowered taxes from year to year instead of raisicg them. - There are men to-day that are sorry they ever voted for such men as composed our last Legislature and are ashamed of the vote they cast, but they won't own it. There are some men in this world who har den their hearts and stiffen their necks against the best or greatest things for their benefit on earth. Men of this kind can't have an easy conscience. Why should people be so wild over a party that has done them harm instead of good, if it is for policy it is a very peculiar kind There were men who were led astray on the 6tb of last November that knew better, but "those that know bis master's will and dooth it not shall be beaten with many stripes." They all had masters and they did the master s wuL I appeal to the Democrats to stand firm and be un movable aoJ the prodigal eons will come borne. I love to belong to a part? thai is friendly, sociable and kind to each other not like the Pops for they will quarrel and fight among them-' selves upon the least of provocation and yet they parade the whole country and cry reform, reform. These poor deceived people put me in mind cf a man running all over the country crying buttermiik for sale acd not a cow in the State. I can tell a third party man as far as I can see him; he has a peculiar look aod his ways are strange. Readers have you noticed it ? If you have not the next time you go to church or any other place just notice bow they talk. They seem to forget tbt-1 they have a sool to save or a hell to shun. Oaly a few sab baths ago a great crowd of young people met at a neighbor's house to sing a few sacred songs and all seemed to be enjoying theriiselves until just before the singing began, there was a Pop that don't hardly know tue war is over, raised up aid began talking politics and abusing the Democratic parly and created hard feelings. Is that way to reform the country breaking up social and religious meetings with such talk as comes from-one of these little Pops? God forbid that our people should put up with much of Buch conduct aod may these badly deceived people turn from their wicked way before it s ever to late. W. T. Tjler tern Letter. For The Newton Enterprise. Tyler Texas, April 23, 1895 Po9iby a few lines from tbia country may be read with interest by souse of year many readers. After the extremely cold winter and Ute spriDg, we are beginning to have some nice warm weather, tho quite dry here until cne week ego we had a good rain and yesterday another, and things are brightening ap, early vegetables and strawberries are gettirg plentiful. The proepects for fruit are fine aod we propose to have a Fruit Palace here thia sum mer, the contract for buildings will be Jet out this week, so Mr. Editor come out arid se9 what East Texas can do in the way cf raising a living st homt. some of our fruit acd truck men get from $50 to $100 per acre every year. A Catawba raised boy 1'viDg with me (Charley Powell) after paving for eeed-i t-tc, in 1893 made SG00 on about 7 acres and last year not quite so well, this year the start ia as good or better, so you see if we put our time and brain to work right there is no use for crying hard times, in this part cf the world at least. The fusion Legislature at Ilaleigb did not stop hard limes and raise the price cf cctton to 10 cents, but they did show their iocompe eacy to man age tne affairs of the State in a wise and statesman like manner, I reckon they find it easier to find fai.lta, thtfn to correct them, yet their papers all howl at the Democrats because they did not banish hard times in a ft w montLs, when they all admit that the vicious Legislation by Kepublicaos for 30 years was the primary cause of bard times, yet when they Bee a chaBce to get a few offices; they join in with the Republicans and divide the pie with them, even supporting a negro against a one legged soldier. Now Mr. Editor dont you think the best thing tome of the leaders could do, would be to crawl in a hole and pull the hole in after them? Enough of politic?, it makes me tired to think how some of my old friends there have acted. The boys tried fusion with Reps especially negroes here in our county, but we set down on the combine, having tried the Heps here several years ago and know Low they always manage to run things in debt and increase taxes, and knowing they the Reps Lad the brains and would control the Popp, we went to work to beat them and we did it from 500 to 800 majority, so we have gocd and care ful Democratic county officers (also State.) I am fearful that the dam age done to the old North State by one fusion administration will set her back for years (for of course you all don't intend that tbey shall ever get into power again.) Say ! if ali the Pep magistrates qualify yon Dems Lad better look ou', if they all get a case around, there wont many of you escape and what is the use ia being a Justice if you cant try somebody. Are any Catawba boys coming to Houston in May? You come Mr. Eiitor and see the greatest State in the Union. Yours for the right. J. W. S. Grant Wheeler, who held up the train on the Southern Pacific road at Wilcox Arizona, tome time ago has committed suicide rather than be captured aa the officers were on his trail and be saw but little hopes of escape. A repetition of the terrible Johns town flood occurred in France on Saturday. A dam broke thus flood ing a whole territory with water and 110 persons are known ta have been drowned. Several Tillages were entirely wiped out of existence CUremoat letter. I For The Newton Enterprise. I Glafemont, April 3D, 1805.

About four years ago I bought the place where I am now living. There were a number of old log houses ou it, and the largest number of rats I ever beard of having at one time kiil ed with my hired hand 240. There waa an old house fo densely popula ted with them that I concluded to and did stick fire to it, and I shot and killed 40 as a result. This waa three years ago. We didn't however get them thinned very much, but for the last six months I have noticed a regular decrease. My hands having told me they hadn't seen a rat about the b9rn, or the effects of one in four months, I believed something was destroying them, hence I began to investigate. Oae day I discovered that a den of something was in a pile of fodder of 5000 bundles in the back end cf my barn, I discovered them by the noise. The front end waa full of hay, so much so that noihing could be done toward destroying or capturing the varments, so about a week ago 1 found a ben killed and pulled to a crack near some straw, I called in mv hands, moved the straw and killed a large mink. Liter, I foun3 another hen at a crack that led to the fodder, an 1 every indication led me to bl eva there was a general den of minks in my fodder. So I got about fifteen men and moved the h9y and fod ler, and in doing so we killed six more minks. Hence we are minus all our rats, eight minks and three hens. Rspt , Robt. L Abernethy. It teems to be Epidemic Salisbury Herald. Last Monday morning it was as certain d that the Farmers' Bank, of Roxboro, had been entered after the elope of business on the Sitnrday before and the safe robbed of $2,- 804 A special bank examiner ar rived on the scene Thursday morning and soon after beginning investiga tions found the books out of balance aod discovered a shortage. Soon after the discovery by the examiner Mr. W. T. Jones, cashier of the bank, surrendered to the sheriff, acknow ledging that he was short $2,300, which be had loaned without author-. ity of the directors. He has made a deed cf fruet securing that amount. After the robbery Jones, who pre viously bore an excellent character, talked so much that suspicion was aroused, and the belief is expressed that he stole the money. This he strenuously denies. He waa placed in jail to await trial. The bank has closed its doors. The real shortage is not knewn and may reach $5,000. This, with the amount stolen, will take nearly half of -the $18,000 capital stock paid in. The depositors it is said will not b losers. The defalcation and robbery will have to be borne by the stock holders. The State bad $1,000 deposited in the bank. The water in the city of Raleigh has become so impregnated with the sulphuric acid from the Caraleigh phosphate works that it will kill Ub as -soon 'as tbey are put into it. This fact was discovered by a gen tleman who made himself a small aquarium and filled with fish in the morning and at night they were all dead. Some time ago the phosphate works were burned and large quan. titles of the acid spil!ej. This bad soaked into the ground and into the tile pipes conveying the water through to the city.

TUTT'S Liver PILLS ABSOLUTELY CURE. Til ne We Weed. In our issue last week we mentiond a few things that we need in our town to make it in viting. We want now to enlarge somewhat on the same subject. We have a climate right here that can't be beat in the world. We heard an instance of this only a few days ago. A promi nent physician, a short time ago wrote an article in one of the leading medical journals of the North, stating the relief persons suffering from pulmonary troub les, received when they came here and in less than ten days this same physician received several enquiries from some of the lead ing doctors in the North upon the same subject. What is the reason for such a quick enquiry ? It is because the eyes of the Northern doctors are upon us and they want to send their patients where they can re.f ceive the most good. We want to encite an interest in the people toward im proveing and beautifying our townso it will be attractive and inviting. We have a mineral spring right here at our door that is second to none in the State and by forming a small stock company it can be brought into the town. Can't this be done. As we said last week we need the square nicely fixed up, a tele phone or, telegraphic line, and better lights. Can't these things be done? What is the use of our sitting still, keeping quiet. We will never make any improve ment at this poor dying rate. Think about these things; talk about them; write about them; arouse yourselves and arouse others. If every one would do a little we would soon have strangers among us; to visit us; to live with us; to leave their money with us and they would be bene fited and we would be benefited. Merchants make all sorts of excuses tor not advertising. Their various explanation re mind us of the young man who left his home in the east to go out west and fight "Injuns." He had not been heard from for several months, and the local papers went on to explain why. The various reasons assigned were that 1st he was so far from a postoffiee; 2nd it was so difficult in a frontier country to get sta tionery. The last and principal reason was he was dead. You may make your own application.
