SCHOOL CLOSING. V Large Crowd and a" Gay Time-A ' Friend Write it all Last Thursday, March 7th, was a glorious day for the pupils of Dis trict No. 40. Although tteenndid not peep through the clouds which oyershadowed it, and kies mother earth; yet quite a large crowd as sembled at the Moo?e school. house to witness the exercises under the management of their eicelient teacher, Mr. T H Ridenhbur. The exerciees did not consist of speeches, dialogues, eps-iye, orations etc, but the examination of the pupils in the following branches : Grammar, geography, arithmetic, spelling, reading, tooi-keeping i nd, familiar science. The pupils cer tainly showed their skill in this ex aminatioi?, especiaJy m arithmetic. Sixty examples were given to the higher class and noc a one missed But, lo ! while the last example was being finished, the sounding of hoofs and the rattling of wheels were heard at no great distance from the house.. Suddenly there sppeareri a wagon loaded with luscious fruits and dainty candies. It seemed as if the wagon was just lrom Florida. The pupils were at-tonished. They could not realize that their teacher had made such a sacrifice in order to satisfy their wants. Yet it pleas, ed them to think that they were so kindly remembered by cse whom they took as their superior. Before the presents were given the prizes were awarded to those who came out victors in the classe3. There were three who won, viz. Master John Foil and Mi3es Matlie Selle and Lottie Cline. "Now for the preat nts,'' said the teacher! Many a heart was made glad. ThoM whom the teacher smote during school felt as if they could turn the other cheek. The presents were distributed. As he made his pupils hearts beat with much rapidity by presenting them with gif '6, so bis pulse was quicken ed when he received a nice box of cigars from his pupil bovs. But a3 th sun wu3 about to reach its nocturnal resting place, the teacher gave quite a nice tjlk and dismissed his pupils. Soenda another successful term cf school. Amicus. Kefnsen to Speak to her Father. The Charlotte Observer soma months ago had a story about a yoang girl, the daughter of Mr John F Bel k, of Union county, who, al though 13 years of age, had never spoken to her father yet. That pa per says that Mr Belk, with several other Union county men, was in Charlotte Thursday. The girl was inquired about. She still main tains ber silent attitude towards her father. She speaks piainly and pleasantly enough to any one else, but will never open her mouth to him. If her mrher sends her out in the field to ' her father for any thing, the wi'.-y always take one of her bjothers or sisters along. The case excites a great deal of interest in the neighborhood where the fa- mily lives- The Jfew Magistrates. The Standard has made an effort to secure the names of tbe new mag istraies-for Cabarrus.

A ttitf Find Of Gold Coin In Stanly -. Orover Cleveland Can inane Nome Bonds in Htauly County. Four thousand and eight huns drei dollars in gold coin found. It makes one's head swim and feel like it had wheels in it. George Sides, "the son of Purity Sides and a brother of Possum Sides, all of whom live just beyond the Cabarrus and Stanly line, was up to the latter part of last week an awfully poor boy. Ee!s got 4,800 in gold coin now. Here's the way it all happened. Last week he went down to the sec lion near New London (Bilesville) on the Yadkin railway, and began to prospect. There is no trouble to pick up a good day 'a work at pros pecting either in Cabarrus or Stanly coanty. George Sides saw a reck that seemed to haye been placod there by hand. He turned it over. Beneath it was another rock. Digging around it, he turned it oyer only to find another rock. After much trouble (and about this time he be came very much interested) he re moved the third rock. Here was a wooden box, decayed, which crum bled from touch. Here In one pile was $4,800 in gold coin. This is a treasure doubtless hidi den there by some one during the war ; and death probably took awaj the banker and no one knew the whereabouts of the treasure, or maybe the banker himself forgot and could not again locate his treas ure. We are not at liberty to tell any more about this big find. 'ery Clad or A German Peddler, who has been here for several years, has his son with him now from the Jatherland. He was delayed and, he talks very gratefully in Dutch. The young man wanted passage on the Elbe, the unfortunate ship that went down in the 'North Sea, but could not get it as no more could be accommodated.

But when the new8 came next day of the awful fate of Efbe and most ot its passengers, the young man used another kind of sentences. He's here and quite a handsome ellow. He came on another boat, of course. The Stanly Sews Changes Hands.

Quite a num ber of the boys patronize it and re port themselves well pleased. The children ot the place had a candy-pulling at the residence of Mrs. Welsh on Saturday night. If fuss is any sign, (and we think it is) they certainly enjoyed it. On Sun day night a total eclipse of the moon followed. According to some scien tists the former exerted a powerful influence over the latter.

" ' EyrrinfvEiTE, Nettie Smith. R. T. Sides, Committee. IS MEnOKIADI. At her heme in Idaho, on tho 15th of February. Mrs. Louise A White, the beloved wife of Mr. A P White fell asleep in Jesus. Tbe sad intelligence of the death of this most !estimable lady was a great shock to her many friends -in "The Old North State," where she was born and reared and where she lived so long before she went to her far away home in Idaho. From her girlhood she was a con sistent member of Rocky River church. Shejwaa the daughter of Mr A C and Mrs. Mary Alexander For several years previous to her marriage to Mr. A P White, she taught school in her native county and while doing this she not only proved herself a faithful and effi cient teacher, perf oi ming her duties with that conscientious faithfulness that always characterized her Chris tian life, ' but i she made many friends and won the love and re spect of her jnany patrons and pu pil?. She was a woman of sterling worth and a great deal of person1 ulity, and made lasting impressions for good upon many who were her pupils- The writer was for some time one of her pupils, and will never forget the impressions made upon his mind by her earnest Chris- tion life, and her instructive teach ing both by precept and example; he loved and respected her, and des lilghts to have the opportunity of paving this tribute to her memory. She, with her husband and chil dren, went to the State of Idaho in the spring of 1892, where they have since resided until her death,which occurred on the 15th of February, leaving a husband an I five children to mourn her loss; but their loss, we leel sure, is ner tten ai gain. She was a faithful, consicrated Christian, "abounding always in the work of the Lora." SShe possessed a stro g, clear mind, aud a soul which, iu tho wisdom of God, was led along through paths of Buffering and sacrifice until it a was, by His almighty grace, made a "fit temple for the indwelling of His Hc-ly Ghost," and which fatted her to adorn any position- ehe mijht be called upon to :ill. and to perform any duties devolving upon her to her credit and to the honor of her Master. She was a ae voted wile, a loving mother, a faithful and un wavering friend. We mourn ter 1ob, yet we bow with cheerful sub mission to the will ot Him "who doeth all things well," and sing from the depths of our hearts; 'AsletD in Jesus, blessed Bleep, - Prom which none ever wakes to weep. A calm and.undiaturbed repose, Unbroken by the last or roes." , v A Feiestd, THEY KEPT THEIR SECRET. The Romantic Marriage of Two Popu Jar Yonnjr People of Salisbury. Cnpid U not always held in cen ventionai bond, for "love laughs at locksmiths." An unusually pretty young lady who is well know and very popular in Raleigh is the heroine of quite a romance. She was educated at Peace Institute, and while there mad i. many frieLds in the capital city. J ust a week ago she was visiting her friend, Mrs. T K Bruner, and no one suspected that she was al ready a Madam. And for that mat ter the folks at home didn't know the secret. Her father was here during the time of her vieit, but he didn't dream of the situation. Miss Ruth Kluttz became Mrs. W Henderson Crawford, February 18tb.in Fort Mill, South Carolina, where Mis Kluttz was quietly mar ned to Mr. Crawford. She is the daughter of Col. Theo. F Kluttz. one of Salisbury's best known citi zens. The groom is a bright young attorney who has just begun the practice of the law. Nobody in Salisbury seems to have known anything about it until Fri day, when the eecret leaked out, and the young lady's parents were told of the romantic affair. Mrs, Crawford is not quite eighteen, and Mr. Crawford was a student at the University last year. Kaleigh Observer. TRUE BILL FOR MURDEli. A Special Term Will Be Recommended for the Trial of Baxter Shemwell Lexington, N. C, March 9. L, ist Thursday the grand jury returned a true bill for murder against Bax ter Shemwell for the recent killing of Dr. R L Payne, Sr. The prisoner was arraigned, and plead not guilty. Counsel -for de fendant argued that on account of some family connection it would not be wise for Judge Brown to hear the case, in which view the Judge ac qaiesced and continued the case. The State asked for a special term and the Judge said he would recommend it. Kia honor having been advised by the county officials that it would be safer if the prisoner were removed to another county, today ordered that Shemwell be at once removed to the jail of Mecklenburg to await his trial in this county. He will be carried to Charlotte tonight. Piople hereabouts don't believe Ahere was a particle of danger of lynching, baoa &-tfling would Jiot anu could not be done.J A RARE BIRD. It Caused Much Interest and the Bird Had a Xnmber orcallers. , When this scribe came to this office Monday afternoon he found hitched to tne inside office door a bird, that looked owlish and yet it is not our own kind. Mr. James R Motley, of No. 2 caught the bird in a steel trap. Its color is lighter than the com-, mon owl; its size is about the size of one of Will Bingham's game roosters, but its wings measure a yard from tip to tip. Mr. Motley has caught forty or more in tbe past few years, but he says this one is unlike all otnero and is a stranger to him. They came in by 2's, 4's and 6's to see the new deyil in this print shop. It was amusing to hear tbe novel questions and remarks. We regard ourselves peculiarly fortunate in not being attacked by Jesse Hamilton's desk-questioner. Eev. J C Davis, calling on busi ness, noticed our newly employed attache cf the office, and in a mo ment he classified the owl. "It is a monkey-faced owl," said he, "and it is the second one that I have seen in my life; they are rare; my 6on has the other one," The bird's face is a perfect pic ture of a monkey; and were all of it hidden from view save the face, you would believe that you. were facing a monkey. Among the many interested call ers was Esq. Puryear. When told that is was called a "monkey-faced owl," and just at this moment the bird making a lond noise, Mr. Pur year exclaimed, "there, that's iust the way a moukey goes," and there was a strong resemblance in the noise. Inasmuch as this owl is both owl and monkey in appearance,' some one suggested it uinst be a "Fusion" a kind of Fusion Legislator. That may be so, or it m .y BOt; at any rate, we know it has too much sense and love for the honor and good name of its native soil to re solute and weep oyer the death of Mulatto Fred Douglass, as did""" other Fusion Statesnvn. A Little eirl Rum Ay.
