A DOCTOR FOB PINK
HILL HAD AT LAST.
Pink Hill town, which has had dif
culty in keeping a resident doctor,
probably by reason of the dearth of
disease, now points with pride to C,
E. Dayton, M. I)., a young New York
physician who has just located there,
The new doctor has nut in a stock of
drugs and is regarded in the com
rounity as a fixture, rink mil is
now boastful of a real live doctor,
nnd is looking about for some one for
him to practice on. The rural patron
age of southern Lenoir and northern
Duplin county, it is expected, will
contribute to keep him "going."

CONTRACT LET FOE
RESERVOIR SCREEN.
The Special committee appointed
fcy Council to attend to that work has
awarded the contract to a Greensboro
' concern for screening the reservoir
at the main pumping station. The
cover will be of corrugated iron. The
exact figure fa not yet known at the
City Hall, but It is said the Greens
boro contractors bid several hundred
dollars tinder their nearest competi
tor.
A. D. Matthews, traveling auditor,
nd W. A. Powell claim adjuster of
the Norfolk Southern Railroad, have
been in the city during the past two
days.
In Superior Court at Charlotte this
week a case of local interest is being
tried in which the Norfolk Southern
is the defendant. The Masons, big
cotton men of the Queen City, are
suing the railroad for the alleged loss
of two bales of cotton out of a ship
rrent to a local cotton mill. It
claimed that 50 hales were shipped,
and that nly 48 arrived. The Norfolk
Southern contends that he seal on the
cur was not broken, and that the car
was just as it was received from the
connecting carrier when delivered
h jre. The cost of the litigation to the
nil road is much more than the sum
involved, and it is striving to uphold
a principle, it seems.

TROUBLE AMONG NEGROES
" IN SOUTH KINSTON1.
. The police late Monday night ar
rested rthee negro men in connection
with excitement around a hall in
South Kinston, where festivities par
ticipated in by colored people were in
progress. Two of them were after
ward released, but Joe Moye, who had
a knife out and was parading about
evidently in search of trouble, was I
detained,
EXPECT WORD FROM
BOND BUYERS DAILY.
City Clerk Coleman says it is about
t!me for the city to hear from the
New York purchasers of the $100,000
paving, lighting and sewerage bonds
irsue, which was Beveral weeks ago
sokl at a premium through a Spar
tanburg, S. C, bank. The prelimin
ariea have been completed, and as
soon as the buyers affix the final sig
natures the money will be immediate
ly available. It is reasonable to pre
sjme that the actual work on the im
provements can be commenced before
the end of the year, the engineer hav
ing made most of his plans prepara
tory to beginning. Clerk Coleman
daily expects announcement of the
acceptance of the bonds. The time
elapsing since the initial negotiations
is not unprecedentedly long.
STATE SENATORS HELP OUT
LOCAL CAMPAIGN FUND.
MEAT AND MILK INSPECTOR
HA8 NOT BEEN APPOINTED.
Although the voluminous new laws
become' effective the first of next
month, the Aldermen have not yet i
lected the officer who will have charge
of the meat and milk inspection in the
city. A competent veterinarian is
under consideration, and it is proba
ble that this man, a resident, will be
appointed. However, members of the
Council decline to be hasty in the
matter, arguing that they cannot be
too careful in choosing person for
such important work.
ALLEGED SLANDERER OF
, GIRL TAKEN TO NEW BERN
Guy Wctherington, charged by his
stepsister, Miss Myrtle B. Price of
New Bern, with slander, was Mon-
oay mgni taken to that city by a
deputy sheriff to stand trial. Miss
Price lives with her father, from
whom Wellington's mother, resid
ing on Chestnut street East Kinaton,
! separated. Before a magistrate
she will deny allegations of inconti
nence she accuses young Wethering
ton, who is employed in the knitting
mills here, of having made.
A, D. Ward and Frank Thompson,
the recently-elected State Senators
from this district, have been advised
by County Democratic Chairman
Cowper that they would not be de
terred from contributing to the coun
ty campaign fund if they so desired.
The fund was not frightfully large,
and the chairman would have had no
difficulty in raising the needed funds
to complete it here, but considered
that the New Bern and Jacksonville
men should have the opportunity of
doing their share if they likedl The
letters to both stated very courteous
ly that they were to use their own
judgment. At least one of the sena
tors has forwarded his check, and the
other, of course, will remit immediately.
