$50,000 Being Invested in Manufactur-1 ing Enterprise in Elizabeth City. Very few people In Elizabeth City, know that a stock com pany has recently been organis zed here with capital to the amount of fifty thousand dollars, to be invested in manufacturing enterprises. But such, we learn, is the fact. A few days ago Mr. E. R. VVixon, of Providence, R. L, came South with several thou sand dollars to invest in South ern enterprises. Having secur ed a through ticket, over the N. & S. Railroad, he gave Eliza abeth City the go-by and went to Edenton and there remained several days. On his return trip Mr. Wixon stopped to take a peep at us, and was in the city scarcely a day before he had become favorably impressed with our town and people. He was met by one of our most progressive citizens, Mr. N. R. Zimmerman, who delighted in showing him our town and country. "Among . the many things pointed out to the visi tor was the little mill on Poin. dexter street known as the Cot ton Mills Supply Company.' Knowing the demand for its product he became interested, purchased stock and organized a company with $50,000 capital. Mr. VVixon is now North pur chasing the latest improved ma chineryfor the mill, and as soon as it arrives and is put in mos tiou everything used in a cotton factory, such as spools, spindles, &c, will be manufactured by this concern. Other enterprises will be started by the Company later. SMOKE The World's Favorite 5c. Cigar. I desire to attest to the merits of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy as one of the most valuable and hfficient preparations on the market. It broke an exceedingly dangerous cough for me in 24 hours, and in gratitude therefor, desire to inform you that I will never be without it, and you should feel proud of the high esteem in which your Remedies are held by people in general. It is the one remedy among ten thousand. Success to it. O. R. Downey, Editor Democrat, Albion, Ind. For sale bv W. W. Griggs & Son. r Manufactured by W. STEVENS A& Co., Elixaletli City.

The reliable "pound net" has amply demonstrated its superi ority over the "gill net," during the past week. Of the great number of fish caught, the bulk came from the pound nets. Mrs. Jno. C Bond returned a few days ago from Baltimore, where she went to undergo a very serious surgical operation. We are pleased to hear she is improving as fast as could be txpected. War With Spain or other powers, would cause trouble for some one. A sewing machine out of repair also causes trouble for the busy seamstress. I can not avert war, but I can repair your sewing machine, (no mat ter how badly out of repair it may be), and put it in first-class condition. My charges will be low and my work guaranteed. Orders left at L. F. Ziegler's furniture store will have my prompt attention. Give me a trial. Respectfully, S. K. IIyman. GL1DEN. The weather is just as fine as can be for farm work.
