Walker last night to «x>me ■ ito her home to "calm" her hus. 'band, the officer met a rather rough reception. He found the husband and Harry Mabe "Dlshrag," both intoxicated, according to the officer's evidence at the trial at IJanbury t.»_! day before Justice N. A. Martin.' Asked what the trouble was Walter -Mabe -ta;d "nothing." The officer then went into the house and found somo gallons of home brew. which he | pouivd out. At this time Mabe got bin shot gun anu attempted to s'.Kct th" officer. 1 h.V wjt* taken awnv from Mabe by the officer and J. s. Wall, who was assisting h'ni. Ma.i? then ran and as the officers came up! on him be drew his knife btij. was again subdued and handcuffed.

J jnlssloners, held at the court here Monday, Jurors were dr»wn to nerve at the fall terms of criminal I and civil courts for Stokes. The i criminal term of one week convenes I Oct. 17 with the civil term be&in. i nlngr the following Monday. Oct. 24th. Judge W. F. Harding Is scheduled to preside over both | terms, with Solicitor H. L.. Koontz representing the State during the «rlminal term. It will be recalled that the regular two week's summer term of Stoki-s Superior court was not held an.l hence the docket for the coming terms are unusually large. W-hlla jailor J. H. Flinchum reports only 12 or 15 prisoners in the county Jail, there are a great many dantri out on bond, and it is likely that the court will not be able to dispose of all the criminal cases J during the one.weel; criminal term. • The jurors for the criminal term,' McADOO INVENTS GOLD DUST DEVICE NT. -PETEKKBI'RG.
