Don,t send off to have it done but give us a trial. Our thanks are due and are hereby tendered to Mr. J. IL Kerr, Jr., at torney at law, and Rev. Cyrus Milam, for supplying our file with missing number of The Record, spoken of in last week's issue. Mr. J. B. Ellis also sent us a copy. The Warren and Roanoke Unions will meet together at Roanoke Rapids on the fifth Sunday in this month. The programme is out and is a good one. A good meeting may be looked for if those on the programme will attend and take the part assigned them. A ladv, of Wan-onion, one of the best in the world, sent us a treat in cream and cake one ilay this Week. It was deligtlul, and greatly refreshed . the innerman, and encouraged us to press onward in our labor. We were forbidden to publish her name, under the penalty of not being remembered again if we did so; ergo, mum is the word. Next Tuesday, the 5th inst, there will be a meeting of the Northern set tlers at Southern Pines. We wish we could be there but cannot. The .meet ing promises to be one cf much interest and it properly managed can be made of great good to our section. It is to be hoped that those who are appointed to attend from Warren Co. will do so and bring before the meeting the wonder ful resources and the great abundance of surplus lanus ' l"v- leve for sale, cheap to good men. The R. R. fare has been reduced for this special occasion and our people who can, should attend. It is strange that all the virtue, integrity, honesty, truthfulness anil independence has concentrated in one editor in Warren county. But such is the ease, if we believe the People's Paper in its sling at us last Week. "What has our Ceaser fed on that he has grown so great ?" Experience, observation" and a close study of human nature has taught us that whenever you see a man who thinks he is the smartest and most honest man in his line of business, and that every one else who doesn't think and act like he does is a fool, oi -i trickster, qr a slave to some one else; you may just mark it down that that man is the biggest fool, trickster or slave to other parties in the world. We are beholden to no man or set of men. We have opinions of our own and shall not hesitate to express them. We are no policy folks. Nor are we running a paper for the money that is in it alono. We will never mn a paper just to catch the people, by playing upon their predjudices and misdiiected enthusiasm; the dirty, low down flings of the People's Paper, ac cusing us of being a tool of aristocricy and monopoly, to the contrary notwith standing. A Strange, lioautiful Bird. Daniel Carter reports a most beauti ful strange fowl cought alive by Daniel Hill on a stream of water in River town ship. The fowl was about the size of a large muscovite duck, long bill, color dark green, with diamond figures around the neck, short legs and webbed feet. No one seems to know the species. It is said to be exceedingly beautiful and glossy. The neck and head were preserved and thev now have it stuffed. S3 OUR CITY REPORTER. Capt. N. L, Sha w is . expected back heme to-day.

"They say" there is a wolf aiound town every night. Has he been to your door yet ? Better watch out. Messrs. Ed. Edwards, and Robt Wostre. from Henderson, spent Sunday in town, the guests of John Hiidgins. Lee last Mr. Several of our young ladies and gents went to Fleming's pond fishing last Monday, but they were too tired to give us any particulars. Warrenton was full of colored people last Wednesday, they came to a Pol itical meeting and some of them said they did not get half paid for the day they lost from their crops. Dr. R. S. F. Peete, who has been South several months returned home Monday last. He had a stroke of paralysis some time ago, but stood the trip home very well. A very interesting quarrel occured here the other day between two little ladies, one three years old, the other two, about a doll baby, aud one of them concluded if the other did'nt let her baby alone, she would put her in a big bag, and did send down town for one. The last we saw, was the little Miss of three walking up and down the neighbor's fence holding a crocus bag under her arm, and making such threats as would have amused you, if you coiud nave nearu it. Ssl O O D' S Sarsaparilla has over and over again proved by its cures, when all other preparations failed, that it is the One True BLOOD Purifier. A Supposed Foul Murder in Littleton. Last Sunday morning some one dis covered the dead body of a colored man in Mr. J. D. Shaw's gin well. Dr. B. Ray Browning was appointed special coroner by W. A. White. C. S 1 1 - i -a kj., ana summonsea a jury ana he la an inquest over the body. The testimony 111 1 1 I i . . 1 m - an tenaea to snow that the body was that of a colored man who was seen in Littleton on March 20th. 1896, with the circus which exhibited there that day. From papers found upon his body he was supposed to be Willie Johnson, of Washington, D. O. The examination of the body showed that a severe blow had been dealt upon tne side of the head and face. " The veidict of the jury was, that the said supposed Willie Johnson came to his death from a blow on the left side cf his head delivered at the hand of party or parties unknown to the jury. a Children Cry for Pitcher's Castoria. . A $35.00 Bicycle At Last. Ever since the introduction of the Bicycle, predictions have been freely made that it was only a qu estlon of time when a highgrade wheel could bo purchased at a low price consistant with the actual cost of manufacture. It is a well known fact that the origi nal manufactniers of Bicycles have become enormously rich from the large profits in tho business, and have been able to maintain high prices by constant advertising. High salaried racers paid to win on . their wheels, expensive Bicycle shows, souvenirs given away, and numerous other expedients are resorte d to, to keep the name of the wheel before the public, all of which the user pays for, and gets no better wheel than one undei a less-known name could bo bought for at half price. In another column is shown a cut and full description of the "May wood" a first class, high grade wheel in every respeot, at the low price of $35.00. Tf one will read the specifications carefully he will be readily convinced that this particular wheel has many points of superiority over any other on the market, and as the manufacturers are a responsible well-known firm, and guarentee the wheel in every particulai. ws can unhesitatingly recommend the "May wood". Children Cry for Pitcher's Castoria Death Of Mm, Mary Cole. In Smith Creek township, this county, at the home of her husband, Mr. Robt. B. Cole, Mrs. Mary Cole dep'arted this life Sunday rooming. Mrs. Cole has beeu a great sufferer for a number of years but passed quietly and peacefully away last Sunday morning. She was a good christian woman, for many years a member of Mt. Auburn Church. Her bodj was interred in the Cole family buryiug ground, with a simple burial service, conducted by Mr. Stephen Read. To the bereaved bus. baud, children and relatives the con dolence of The Record is extended. The Town Mas-Meeting. The citizens of town met in mass meeting in the court house last Monday night to nominate town officers for the ensuing year, to be voted for next Monday. Dr. Geo. A. Foote was elected chair man and Mr. W. R. Watson secretary of the meeting. Messrs. H. J. White, H. J. Burweil, W. P. Massenburg, J. Willie White, Aaron Hendrick, Julius W. Harris and James M. Ransom were nominated for commissioners without opposition. Messrs. Tasker Polk and John L, Henderson were both placed in nomi nation for Mayor. Mr. Polk's name was placed before the convention and reaeived a flattering vote whereupon the chair declared him the nominee of the convention. Mr. Henderson's name was never placed before the conve ntion and there fore his f rinds were not allowed to vote for him. Some con f ueion arose just here, Mr. Henderson withdrew his name and would not allow his name to go before the convention after the treatment he had received, whereupon Mr. Polk withdrew his name und desired that both should go before the convention in regular order. Without any further voting upon this question the convention adjourned, and now some claim that Mr. Polk is the nominee and others that there was no nomination for Mavor. "We suppose the matter will be settled at the polls next Monday Children Cry for Pitcher's Castoria. Republican County Convention. The Republicans held their county convention here yesterday. Mr. C. A. Cook was elected permanent Chairman and B. Thornton, seaty. The nom inations were as follows : A. Hendrick and J. H. Wright, del egates to the Congressional convention; C. A.
