From passengers coming down the Western railroad the Salisbury World learns that It snowed at Old Fort and other points up the Wes tern Sunday night. Snow in August is something unusual in this cli mate but that snow fell thick and fast seems to be no donbt. After all, this does not seem to be so very remarkable when it is ie membered that there is a certain lo cality in this county where frost occurs each month in the year. IT SNOWED Shot Twice. The Observer eays Ed Lucky, colored, was shot twice late Satur day night by Will Neely, also color, ed. One ball entered his side, the other his face, j ast .below the eye. The wounds are not necessarily fatal. Neely, when informed that the police were after him, drew two pistols in a defiant manner but let prudence get the better of his valor and skipped.

In a group of Southern merchants at the Carrollton Hotel the other night was Mr. John R Norris, of Goldsboro, N. 0. He was just as merry as a sehool boy over the ad vancing prosperity, and he was bubn bhng over with information when a representative of the American sounded him on the condition of trade. He ea:d ; I haye jjs fin iahed a tour of nearly all sections of North and South Carolina, and I can speak advisedly on the condition of affairs there. Everything is progs pering there and I attribute it all to the fine crops of this year. Tie crops of this year have been wonder- folly remunerative. Baltimore mer chants haye made a careful study of the wants of the Southern mer chants and our people can do better here than elsewhere. Many people labor under the impression that this is the beat season for the fall trade. The truth of the matter is that nearly all of the fall stock was sold by drummers during May and June. There are some things that the merchants want to buy in person, and that is the reason for their appearance here at this time. Then there is a general feeling of alarm among the Baltimore houses over the fact that a number of the Southern buyers do not stop here but go direct to New York. Every one of these people return -to Balti more, and the truth of the matter is that a better portion of their goods are bought here. The Southern trade is of a rural t nature, and by careful; study the Baltimore houses have secured-the proper staples in supplying the wants of these people. there is no need of cheap excursions in getting Southern buyers here. They would come anyhow' Balti more American. - . , PERSONAL POINTERS. ' Miss Rath Caldwell is visiting her sister, Mrs. Fred W Glass'. Mr. and Mrs. J B Sherrill re turned from Asheville last night.
