Mr. Frank D. Drown, of the Depart
ment of Commerce of the United
States, is at Kinston. collecting data
of the resources, etc., of Lenoir county
and the town of Kinstou, for a statis
tical report by the department to snow
the wealth of the United States.
The Ivy Telephone Company, of
Mars Hili. is contemplating the build
ing of a line from Mars Hill to Mar
shall, touching Grapevine, Halewood
and other places. This company has a
line to Asheville with connections east
of there, nnd they also cover the Ivy
section and will build on into Yanrey
county. The extension to Marshall
would be a considerable convenience
and would soon prove a good investment.
At a meeting of the board of direc
tors of the Citizens' Savings Bank, of
Kinston, it was decided to recommend
to the stockholders meeting, to be held
in July, to increase the capital stock
to $50,000. just double what it is now.
The bank has had a very prosperous
year and besides paying a good divi
dend will add a goodly sum to the
surplus.
A deal has been effected by which
there will be a change in the manage
ment of the Fountain Mills at Tarboro.
The controlling interest in these mills
has been acquired within the pasi few
days by John F. Shackelford. G. M. T.
Fountain and a few others. Mr.
Shackelford and his party obtained
control by purchasing outright all the
Baltimore holdings of the Fosteis,

Mr. R. E. Lee, supervising master of
floating property for the Norfolk and
Southern Railroad, passed through
Elizabeth City this week. To a,Ta
Heel man he said: "The work of
dredging out the mouth of Scupper
nong river is about completed. There
is now a depth of nine, feet at even
tide with a channel ninety feet wide.
This enables us to take the Garrett to
Columbia. With this facility it may
reasonably be expected that the rail
road now making to Gum Neck in the
lower part of Tyrrell county, will be
made into a standard gauge and con
tinued to the fertile fields of Hyde
county, with a terminus at Englehard,
where a good harbor can be obtained,
and which place is the most feasible
point for the establishment of oyster
packing houses, and other industries."
The Southern Railway is making
surveys, preparatory to constructing
additional shifting yards at Pomona,
three miles from the present yars

Greensboro
A gentleman of Greensboro who has
recently been visiting what is known
as the Fisher Hill Mine, eight miles
south of Greensboro, now being work
ed, is impressed with the idea that it
is a good place from which to secure
an additional water supply for Greens
boro. He says it is as clear and pure
as can be, and that with the aid of
pumps bringing up 1,600 gallons a
minute, the mines cannot be kept clear

Hail-stones Fell For Ten
Crops Are Damaged.
Mr. J. W. Smith, of the Hickoiy
Grbve section, was in the city today
pnd gave The News an account of the
big hail storm that visited that neigh
borhood yesterday.
The storm started about 12:3C
o'clock and lasted almott ten minutes.
During this short time an immense
amount of damage was dene the growl
ing crops.
The path of the storm was from a
quarter to a mile in width. The worst
. damage dore was in a narrow path
j about one-fourth of a mile wide. Cot
jton was to:n to shreds, corn was beat
i cn down and in fact all the growing
crops were more or less damaged.
Mr. SmiUi states that he had a field
of eight acres in cotton. This was
completely riddled and he is afraid he
will have to plough the entire field up.
The young plant was stripped of its
leaves and in many instances the stalk
was mowed down as completely as if
j it had been done with a scythe.

Varicocele Cured Without

Every man should know about my original method of curing
these diseases painlessly. I have proven conclusively that there is
no necessity of surgical operations, which seem to be a fad amon
most doctors, and that better results can be obtained by my per
fected plan of treatment, at the same time saving the patient un
told pain and suffering. I have treated these diseases twenty years,
and there is no case, no matter how obstinate, that does not readily
y;eld to my treatment.
I can cure you with

these diseases is

On the farms of Mrs. N. E. Smith
rand Mr. Z. W. Taylor the storm did
i equally as much damage as at Hickory
Ul U V c.
The hail was not very large, the
stones varying from the size of a
buckshot to a robin's egg. It fell so
last and so thick that vegetation was
i completely beaten to death.
' From the Hickory Grove section the
storm passed out by Robinson's
church. The damage in that section
was equally as much as at Hickoiy
Grove.
It will be recalled by News readers
that this section of the county was
, visited by a severe hail storm last
year. Many cf the farmers of that sec
tion lost their all.
i Mr. Smith, in speaking of the Rob
inson church section, informed The

just as oaa a pngnt as tney were last
