Witt How in Friday night Deputy Sheriff Mona ghan, Deputy Holmes, of Flea Hill township, Deputy United States Mar shal Averitt and 0. F. Qoddard, repre senting U. S. government, arrested Antony Ray in Qaewhiffh township, a very desperate negro, notorious for defying and resisting officers, the lead er of a band of outlaws known as tbe "Blue gang." He has been wanted for the past five years in Cumborland, Robeson and Moore counties. Tbe offioers bad an adventurous night of it tramping through low grounds and swamps for five miles, and carrying along a negro named Campbell to show them Ray's bouse. He lives on Pappy Creek, and the possee were foroed to break his door down to obtain admittance. So low was tbe entranoe that tbey got in by stooping, and found Ray in a corner, with a quilt over bis head, Blits for bis eyes and a double barreled gun in his hand. Tbey were at snob close quar ters that tbe mnjz'e of the gnu was pressed against Officer Monaghan's stomaob. Tbe triggers were pulled, but tbe gun failed to fire from its bad condition. Ray submitted to arrest after a few blows over the head with the butt of a pistol. His wife, Eliza beth, waB also arrested. A Horrlblt Otims, Two or three days ago the Obser VER contained a notice of the assault on Hector McKay by Buck Simpson, both colored, in which McKay was seriously injured. By the way, when Simpson made the assault, he prepar ed himself for a run from the police; but, unfortunately, no officer happen ed to be at the station at the time. Simpson's lawlessness on this occa sion has led to tbe revelation of a re voltlng crime committed by him. Dr, Melchoir, while attending McKay, was told a horrible story by Fannie Simp son, Buck's wife, and this was given in detail In the mayor's court this morning. While the two were living in Bladen county, with Bessie, the daughter of Fannie, not yet 13 years old, Buck brutally beat his wife, and warned her that he Intended to criminally assault his step-daughter, Bessie. This he did, in the presence of the mother, and under circumstances of especial brutal ity. So far, the police have been un able to'tfiect his arrest; but, since the bringing forth of this last serious charge, another ' warrant has been issued, and In a direction which, the authorities have reason to belieye, will reach him. Hector McKay, the Injured colored man, was also in the mayor's court this morning. His head is still ban daged, but hlB eye, which was endan gered, will be saved. ' A Good Liver.

Lack of apace prevented it yester day, but to day the reporter of the Ob SBB.VBR offers to its readera the pleas ure which be hai enjoyed, In reading the following excellent contributions to the enjoyment of the reunion of the McNeill family at ArdluBsa last Thurs day i . louthirn Hospitality. BY M1S8 ELIZABETH 11ROOKB DAVIDSON. When the request came to write something to be read at this gathering at Ardlussa, we wondered "what shall we write r Ponderlnz over subjects, humorous and otherwise, until our brain was in quite a whirl, no theme seemed more fitting this occasion than to make it an opportunity of expressing our ap preciation of the genial, warm-hearted hospitality of the "Old North State," and pre-tmlnently of theBe our friends. What had long been iamillar to us in song and story of the charming grace and dignity of the beautiful wo men; the gallantry and courtesy of the gentry of the sunny South-land, all' became an actual experience in our lives. To-day in this old mansion with its historic memories, under the shade of these noble trees, and listening to the song of the near-by waters as they flow, surrounded by such a host ol congenial spirits, inspirations come to us that shall broaden our lives and teach us lessons that make for nobler living and the doing of those deeds that bring pleasure into the lives of others. This Is a reunion. Yes, that has a significant meaning, not only to the members of this family, but also to us for were we not one of your number a year ago ? How the memory of that happy time has been with us during the days that have passed, for is it not true that ''Tbe memory of happy days Hath power to cheer the heart always!" Many an hour has been spent in liv ing ever again the evintB ot that day. How wejfatheed-in the-parlorof the4 old mansion and were charmed bv the music Irom the skilled touch of one of your number, and were thrilled as never before by your enthusiastic sing ing of "Carolina.'' The loyalty of your whole heart surely burst forth in that song. Then out on the lawn un der those mighty trees to tables laden with but here language falls me to describe that gastronomic feast and its picturesque "afteirmth" of the "ne groes at their banquet." Again tbe walk down the glade to the springs ! Was there ever such "agua pura" as we quaffed that day from the ground i Surely we had found what the old Spaniard long ago sought; for as the gray-haired visitants partcok ot the life-plving stream we saw Blgns of re turning bouyancy, and those of less mature years ltfc with a more elastic step But other attractions presented them selves, and rather reluctantly we re traced our steps, leaving the ferns and mosses, to stroll across tne bridge, ex plore the wooded knoll beyond, gath ering flora by the path, until we reach ed a spot where the vista spread out betore us beggars description. We listened to the waters as they met and mmmured one to the other of their meanderings over the pebbly brooks on the hillBlde or through tbe blossoming meadows, or listened to the whispering of the gentle zephyrs in the tops of the beautiful pines the pride of North Carolina. What a ro mantic spot 1 How the imagination leads one to reflect that with all the beauties of nature round about one could while away the hours, Seeking for tbe ehadv nook, With one dear friend or genial book, Dreaming that litest one Bummer's day, That love and youth will laat alway. But from our reverie we return to the present. We are here at Ardlussa again, yet in the midst of all our joy and gladness a minor chord is touch ed and a strain of sadness enters into the harmony, as we look for some of the faces and forms who a year ago greeted us with such a kindly smile and sweet grace of manner. We see them not with these eyes, but may we not with your poet of I?.st year believe they really do form one in our midst, are interested in this festive day, and that the sweet influence of their lives is a ministering spirit to us, inspiring us to a better lite ( We are sure we voice the sentiments ofonr genial host and hostess (Dr MacNeill and his charming wife) when we say: Then take aia token, Of friendflhif) unbroken, Thift prayer that we oiler thee, That life from her treasure, May give only pleainre, When thinking of theee and of me Thi Advantage ot Country Bailing. BY PROP. AR0H JOHNSON. A good deal of sport is made of the green and gawky boy from tbe back woods, who thinks when he goes to town that tbe waterworks' tank is tbe State museum, and who doesn't know what end of a oheroot to light; but, after all, he is the gentleman who, wben he does learn how, will run the town Somehow it seems necessary in tbe acauirement ot common sense that a boy mnst wear copperas breeches and one suspender, as be walks down the blistering corn rows and longs for the sound of the dinner horn. In the man agement of men, the most helpful train ing is an earlier knowledge of the management ot mules. 'Muscle is mighty faotor in the strennous battle of life, and for tbe production of real mnsole a baseball bat or a dumbbell are not in tbe same class with a broad axe or a spade 01 a oross rut saw. All the oity-bred boy can gain in the gym nasium, and more, the oountry boy already possesses, in the exercise of a lite-long struggle against grass una taxes. There is another thing about the oountry boy he woiks in tbe day and sleeps at night, lie goes to tbe sing ing, but by 9 o'olook begins to gape, and when the clook strikes ten the whole party rise in fear and trembling and hasten home to explain why they are so late. He may . pulveriza plug tobaooo, bnt he oannot.handle a cigar ette, and bis bard cider Is innocent of concentrated lye. ills habits are as regular as his pulse, and he goes to church on Sunday to bear what tbe preaoher says and not to kill an hour or two of time. Blessings on the oountry boy I He Is the comma- man. Awkward as he is. and nngainly as be may be, all ot ns lean -on his strong arm and follow bis wise counsel. I am not blaming any body for not having been born in tbe oountry I am only pitying them. They are sadly handicapped in the beginning ot tbe race. We have only one In stanoe of a oity-bred boy ooming to the Presidency, snd that is tbe present In cumbent, whose judgment is as erratie as a whirlwind.

Boat Hani. MiMtn(. Sunday morning about 2 o'clock, during the run of the steamer City of Fayetteville from Wilmington to this place, Rob Webb, a colored hand, was missed, and is supposed to have fallen overboard and been drowned. Webb was the son of Dolly Webb, and his father was once a pilot on the Cape Fear. He has been working In Georgia, and came here only about a month ago. Loaf of Bread Worth Something. Sunday's Wilmington Messenger, in an interesting reminiscent article of the bombardment and fall of Fort Fisher, quotes from the old Wilming ton Journal, just a few days before the capture of tbe fort, that "flour was selling at $600 a barrel in Fayette ville" The thoughtful Observer reader will find something significant in this quotation of tbe prioe ot the "staff ot life" in Fayetteville. Tbe good town had even than passed tbe heyday of its prominenee as the great entrepotof inland and up-country trade, but it was still regarded as tbe flour market of the State; and not nntil some years afterwards had the Person street flour warehouse, under the euooessive man agementot tbe late lamented Messrs. Henry Sedberryand Philemon Taylor, outlived its Dsefo.lo.e88, and found its "ooonpation gone." Money Not Accepted. While' Dr.' H.

The first shipload to arrive at any South Atlantio port for more than twenty years came into Charleston, S. C, recently. The importation of it is controlled by Messrs.

Mr. Oliver Smith, of Wilmington, is sole State agent. Tht Bains and Cotton and Pit Vina Hay. Tbe rains ot tbe past week or two have worked great injury to crops in this seotion, cotton and pea-vine hay suffering terribly. We heard a prom inent farmer eay this morning that his entire crop of bay was ruined, and his cotton was off badly. The government report, issued Tuesday night, says: Cotton has made rapid growth throoghout tbe cotton belt and in por tion) ot the central find western dis tricts, and in eastern North Carolina, too, rapid growth is quite general, rust and shedding being also reported in the central and eastern districts, while heavy rains bave caused icjury in. por tions of North Carolina, Alabama, Louisiana and Arkansas, Early cotton Is now opening, a first" bale having been ginned In South Carolina on the nth, four days later than tbe average. Cooler weather has affected tobacco unfavorably In Kentucky, Pennsyl vania and New England, and drought is causing further injury in Ohio. Elsewhere the crop has made satisfac tory progress. Cutting has begun in Maryland, Ohio, Kentucky, Wiscon sin and New England. There Is a very general absence of reports c flu- jury by worms. Farmeri' Central Proticllvt Association. Correspondence of the Observer. Tarboro. N. C, August 14th. 1903. Mr. Editor : There will be a meeting of the North Carolina Farmers' Protective Associa tion of tbe State, at Rocky Moont, N. C. on Friday, tbe 21st day of August, 1903, for tbe purpose of considering the present deplorable situation of tbe to bacco interest ot tbe State. In this matter every backer and merchant and land owner, as well as tobaooo grower, is interested. The sit uation is threatening and requires in stant attention. Unless immediate aution is taken tbe result will be to saorifioe tbe entire tobaooo crop of the State. Will you not give one day of your time towards relieving this situation 1 If so, we beg that you will attend the meeting at Rocky Mount on tbe 21st iast. At this time we hope to submit tor consideration praotioable and business-like measures to meet the present conditions. We need and ask your interest and eo operation, and feel that we have the right to expeot it of you. We bave invited the bankers and merchants of the tobaooo growing section of the State to meet the farmers at Rooky Mount for conference, and have the assurance of s large gather ing. Please advise me if we may expeot you to attend. Very truly, J. W. B. Battle, President. Monday night a desperate "crook" fought a pistol battle with six police men on the roof of a residence on 43rd street, New York. He was finally brought down by a wound in the leg, surrendering with two revolvers, an electric lantern and a rope-ladder. Suicide Prevented.
