y - DELIBERATE MURDERER. Bird Hunter Sboofs at Passenger Tram and Kills Baggage Master 3lged Id Jail . Ajaotherdeath by reckless hun ters in Perquimans County oc cured on "Christmas day John White of that county, aged 17 -Years, was out hunting with four ; companions, and came to the Nor t: folk and Southern railroad" brack just as the passenger train was passing in, full speed, and, to save his flog from being run over the young Mr. White held him till the train was nearly passed, 'when he let him loose, and grab ing his gun, discharged it in full v blast af the open door of the bag- oracre car which was on the rear end of the train, and the full load struck the baggage master, Mr Augustus B. Stephens, who was efflndW in the door, directly in in the mouth, causing almost in fi ttant death. All five of the hun- ? tjers fled to the woods, and "the train was immediately stopped. Sr Searching parties were formed, ' and so complete were the search - ingartdes'organized that in a ' short time the hunters were sur rounded in a woods and the " young man White surrenderd to an officer, Mr. Hobbs, who at once placed him in jail at Hert- ford, the County seat' No mo tive has been given by the pris oner for the shooting, and he says fie did not aim to harm Ste phens. The victim of this tra'ge . dy was a youth of good charact- er, 18 years of age, who before he left" his ' home in Suffolk Christmas morning seemed to have had some premonition of the ' dreadful occurrence, and tried to get off for the day, but was tre- vailed nnon to take the triD.

In one of our local churches. last Sunday, "Oh, that I: had wings like a dove." was sun by the soprano, and "Oh, that I had wings," sang the contralto, and even the tenor and bass joined in the longing- for "wings likp a dove." The music was finely rendered, but while listening to it, and afterwards to the "words of the pastor, as he prayed that he might be borne on the pini ons of faith," the writer could not help thinking, irreveiently prehaps,but relevantly neverthe less, of the countless variety of birds' wings and feathers worn by members of the congregation that; morning in church. And not only were wings and feathers used, but even birds themselves. Poor birds! They looked as if they would like to "fly away and be at rest!" Celia Thaxter, with her intense love' for birds, wrote, God gave us these exquisite crea tures for delight and solace, and we suffer them to he slain hv thousands for our adornment. A bit of ribbon , or a bunch of flowers, or any of the endless variely of materials used by the milliner, would answer everv purpose of decoration, without involving the sacrifice of bright and beautiful lives." Westfield Times and News Letter. When a man 1 is willing to be "knocker" he ought to have nerve enough to take the "come back" without flinching.

Our firm is compos ed of men who know their business and propose to leave no stone 'unturned to give you a first class tobacco market at your door. ; ..- -; t -" WITH A LIFETIME EXPERIENCE in the business an after close contact of observation, we say that there is not a section in North " Carolina better adapted to the culture of tobacco than yours. Also knowing the demands of the i tobacco trade we feel safe to sav that we can advise .you to increase your; tobacco crop with - .' strong indication of paying prices. We are firmly convinced that it will be your best money crop. , Since the old belt for several easons cannot produce the quantity they did, places your opportu nity in a much stronger position. - ' 4 i";.V: fBaHHaCaBalBHiSBBBBSBflDSBSaSsESBBBSrEBB The Culture of TOBACCO is not any MYSTERY : and takes but little instruction for any sensible man to make it a success.
