Thursday Evening, Oct. 22, 1903 There I quite a decided movement in tobacco from this city now. Fifteen car loadi were shipped over the A. & N. C. Railroad today In one train. Mr. Jim WhittleJu, who lives on north Queen street, has developed a bona tide case of diphtheria and the residence ha been disinfected and quarantined.

Today is the lat day of registration and if this should meot the eye of one who has not registered, they can do so until sun down today, at T. V. Mew born & (Vs. store. Reduced rates will be given by the railroad to the North Carolina ( hris- tlan Missionary Convention at Green ville. Tickets will be sold October 2ith, good to return October Mst. Kinstou is pretty well helped up with pool tables now, there being: three public pool rooms, besides the F.Iks club tables. The colored "sports' have them a table on lower Queen St for which license was issued yester day. The services at the Methodist church by the ladies, in the interest of thedis pensary continue, and will until elec tion day when a continuous service will be held from sunrise to sunset and the church bell rung every hour. The daily service is at 3 p. m. Probably one of longest freight trains that ever passed this station was the east bound local freight this morning. There were 42 sars attached to engine No. 19 and the throbbing efforts of the big steam horse attested the strain under which it labored. The train waa about a third of a mile In length. An oyster supper Is to be given at Rhodes' school by the Caswell Liter ary Society on Friday evening of the 23rd, beginning at 7:30. Proceeds to be used for furnishing society hall. Every effort will be made to make the evening enjoyable. A prize will be awarded the most popular young lady. A cordial invitation is extended to the public. Mr. John Rouse, who lives on the Dick Sutton place in Falling Creek township, lost his dwelling, most of the furniture and contents and some out houses yesterday morning by 9 re. The origin of the fire is unknown, but happening when ft did, at 3 a. m makes It appear as if it were incen diary. The loss is over $1,000, with no Insurance. The Chrysanthemum Show. The annual flower show soon to be held in this city under the auspices of the United Daughters of the Confed eracy, it la said, will be of surpassing beauty and the list of prizes will be greater than ever offered before in connection with the show. v, The chrysanthemums this year are undoubtedly larger and more beautiful than ever produced in this city hereto fore and and the degree of perfection reached in the cultivation of the "win ter rose" here would compare favor ably with the flowersj grown by the best florists of the oountry. The date has not not been arranged yet, but will probably be during the first days of November. An Exciting: Runaway. An exciting runaway occurred yes terday afternoon late which began at the Central warehouse. The team be longing to Needham Grant, of Greene county, was being hitched up when the horse became frightened at something and ran around the warehouse. At the southwest corner la turning, the wheels were torn from the car and the horse took down the sidewalk dragging the shafts and body, ' The upper sidewalk of North street is lined with small stores and in front of the stores were goods on display, but the horse did not touch any of these except a peanut parcher belong ing to Mr. Walter Fields. The dam age done to the parcher was said to be about 159. ' ' Continuing up North street to Bond's market the runaway crossed over said went into the alley back of Dixon & Hooker's and into . the back door of Mr. S. H. Bright's feed store, where he was caught. He broke the cart body loose In eater ing the door. The wild dash down the sidewalk caused a small panic among the peo ple on the street and some climbed trees and others jumped over counters In their haste to get out of the way. THS COTTON MARKET.

THE LIGHT FINGERED GENTRY "Touch" Some of Kington's Citizens at the State Fair Yesterday. Those returning from the State fair last night report a number of robber ies by pickpockets there yesterday, among the number "touched" being Mr. Clem Bailey, of this city, and Messrs. Joe Darden and F. R. Hodges, of this county. Mr. Bailey lost $7, taken from his hip pocket on the fair grounds, and Mr. Darden was also relieved on the fair grounds of his pocket book, which had his ticket in it but very little money. While in the act of putting his sis ter on the train Mr. Hodges noticed two men crowding him closely, who he told to stand back. He thinks then was when his pants pocket was re' lieved of his purse containing $25 in bills. The light fingered gentry are in evi dence in larger numbers this year than ever before, at the fairs in the State, and they were exceedingly bold and aggressive yesterday in Raleigh. One tried his hand on Mr. N. B. Brough ton, but waa discovered and a lively time occurred for awhile in which it is said a female accomplice waa in the melee and fought like a tigress. The police landed one of them and he was put in jail in default of $1,000 bond. : A Beautiful Window. Strangers frequently remark that the artistio display in the show win' dow of our up-to-date merchants would do credit to a large city. This, of course, is pleasant to a patriotic Kinstonian, as indeed any merited compliment of our city, by an outsi der, should be. But what the writer started out to say is this; that the meritorious ar rangement of "Dorothy Dodd" shoes in the show window of Einstein Bros, store form a striking display that Mug gests genius. From a background of red cloth curtain of fine texture, and bordered tastily in white, the nickle and plate mirrored glass device on which this beautiful shoe is shown a pretty effect is drawn that is worth a second look by the passerby. It is indeed a credit to the city. CAPUDINE CUKbO Tnnhn Nmum. dim- ALL HEADACHES Sn.H Act oa brin r bm . loo, S3e ndMe bottl. tiasvia.) - SPECIAL NOTICES.
