He was at the W. M. Tyndal mllli three miles from Dover, standing near some oxen when one of them flirted hit head around, his horn striking Mr. Tucker in the throat and piercing deeply into his throat. Mr. Tucker was badly injured about a year ago in the explosion of a boiler at Mr. F. N. Hawkins' mill near Dover. The court house Dump, we are glad to say, has been repaired and a tin cover put over it to prevent the leakage flowing back into the well, thereby making the water bad. The well was pumped out a few days ago and the accumulated trash removed and the "court house pump" will soon be reinstated in Its pristine glory as the famous spring from which the thrlsty having drunk will return once again to partake of itssweet,sparkling fluid, though he travel for away. Long may the sweetness of its cooling draught remain with us and wider the range of its fame extend. In a discussion on the streets today concerning life insurance it was dis covered that the six men discussing the matter were paying annually a total of $1,000 for premlnum on insuranee. None of these were the big policy holders of Kinston either, but are supposed to be about what the average 'good liver" In the town pays for in surance yearly,. It was said that some people in the city pay $2,000 a year insurance on their lives. And it was further estimated by a conservative man that $100,000 a year is approximately what is paid out in the county annually on lite insurance. - Teachers' Institute Begins Monday. .'
