Gallaway's Grand Opening. Our reciter had tho pleasure of dropping in Fiiday afternoon at the grand spring opening at R. J. (tallaway's hai'dsomo and well ar ranged store, which, touk place on Thursday and Fiiday of last week. It was by f ir the handsomest dis play ol dry-t'oods and millinery ever made iu this place. The large show windows were beautifully decora ted, one in delicate colored silks, bordered with elegant broad silk lace, the oilier with dark, rich col ored rugs relieved with !x?gonias and Hyacinths; in the background were slylish spring dress patterns and lovely rich trimmings, tasteful ly arranged, all ot which would in dicate Dick's usual taci in the selec tion ot stylish goods for his large number ot tasteful customers. We then entered the millinery department proper, which is under the supervision ot Miss Kate Noble, a young lady from Dal i i more, who cornea well recommended as a mil liner of superior taste and ability. The arrangement iu this depart ment alone is sullicieiit guarantee that Miss Noble is familiar with the work iu her line and will please the most fastidious. We might add that Mrs. Irvin, who has been with Mr. Guliaway tor some time, and w ho is juite pop ular as a saleslady, deserves special mention in making this grand dis ply such a decided success. Mt. Airy, Winston and Greensboro R. R. Tiie Southern Railway has made an offer of $1,G','2.h1) for the Cape Fear it Yadkin Valley Railroad, and it looks jiist now like the oiler will be accepted. Thk News is in formed that if the road passes into the hands of tne Southern, the plan now is to run the trains from Mt. Airy to Greensboro via. Wius'on, and cut oil that part of the C. F. cV V.

Distressing Affair at Elkin. News reached ua Saturday of an unusual and heart-rending occur rence in our sister town of Elkin. The story as published in the Char lotte Observe, of the 2Slh, is, wo suppose, correct. Tho following are tho facts : "For the past three weeks one of our most highly respected and prom inent citizens, Dr. J, W. King, has been very Bick. He would-get bet ter and worse by torus and no one seemed to know tha cause of his sickness. More than a week ago several members of his family were taken sick in tho eame manner, Then it was that one of tho best in tho State, Dr. II. T, 5ah:ison. of Salem, was sent for He came and pronounced that the doctor and his faanly were poison ed and the only tiling that saved their lives was an overdose of tho poison, which was arsenic. Suspi cion rested on a member of tlio family, tho eldest son, a lad about 10 years old, as being the perpetra- . r . I . 1-1 :. l. . c tor oi uie crime, mo weo oi en curnstantial evidence began to w ind around him so tightly that yester day morning he broke down and confessed that ho hud been trying to poison his father and that ho had attempted it as many as six or seven times. He said he was net trying to poison any of tlio rest of the family his father was the only one. He gave as his reason for bc doing that hU father would not let him travel around us much as ho wished to and that lie was too strict with him. This is no reason whatever, as thero is not a more loving and indulgent father toward his children iu this whole section. Oil account of the prominence of the family and tho ago of the boy and the hu miliation and disgrace attending it, it was thought best not to prose cute the boy, but send him out of the State; so yesterday evening he boarded the train tor the far West, where it is to be hoped he will re form. Northing has ever occurred in this section that has so shocked the people and I hope I will never have to choniclo the like again.' Tho sympathy of the town and commu nity is extended to the tamily in their trouble. The ac-ount ot this sad alfair would never havo been written but for tho conflicting, false and misleading reports which would have been ciiciilated. the above are the true facts in the case and it was thought liest to present them to the people of the State in their true light. I am firm in the belief that the unfortunate boy is insane and that he should have been placed in the asvliim or a reformatory for young criminals instead of being sent W est. The poisoned family are doing as well as could be expected and I hope will Boon be well arain." An Old Pensioner, Mr. Alt Dean savs that tho old pensioners are not all dead jet. In conversation with him the other dav we obtained this item : 'William Cloud was in the Rev ilntionarv war and drew a pension up to his death, about 1842. It has been nearly 12') years since the de claration of independence. He was bom in Carroll county, Va., mar ried the second time and raised a large family. His last wife was Nancy Vanghan. Two children were born to him by his second wife, one boy and one girl. His son Washington Cloud, familial ly known as "Wash," who is now a prominent lawyer in Missouri, was born when his father was 100 years old, the fattier living but a short time after Wash's birth. The widow is still living and drawing a tension of f 12 a month. She lives within eight miles of Mount Airy, on Lovell's creek." The Republican voters of the old original Mt. Airy township are re quested to assemble in mass meeting at their voting places in each w ard or precinct on the 4th of April and elect three committeemen of their number, and these three should se lect one of the three ss chairman, so each township or ward will be in proper shape to call a convention to transact any business necessary.
