Twenty Quarts of Liquor. Wilson ? B. J. Joynes. of the Wll bsnks section, not long since went tg.

Ho was arrested by Police Chief Far-! mer for having in his possession more liquor than is allowed by law, according to the chief'a way of thinking. He was bound over to Wilson Superior conrt and his caso was heard Monday before Judge Lane. The defendant admitted the fact that the whiskey was for him; that he bought it for his personal use snd not to sell it for gsln. The judge snd defendant's counsel made It so plain that the mere having of whiskey in any quantity not suffi cient to cnvict, and that prima facie evidence must be supported by other evidence before a man can be con victed of retailing: Immediately af ter the Jury retired a poll was taken, and they stood one for conviction, and eleven for adqulttal. After re maining out twelve hours they still i disagreed, a Juror was withdrawn I and a mistrial ordered. | GOLDSBORO is eager FOR A BALL LEAGUE The following article regarding | he formation of an Eastern Carolina ?jail league, appeared in a recent -dHion of th* Goldsboro Argus: (By Emmett R.
