There arrived at N. D. Underwood's last week a 'gall baby." And Nath has had a big festival, and has not been able to be out much since. There must be something remarkable about its size, intelligence, color or beauty. Nath would not "cut up1' that way about an ordinary gall baby. M. M. Watson had occasion to use a scythe last week, and could not find one on his place. He sent out word to the neighbors to send or brino- his scythe blade home.

But in the case of the ; Jonesboro man, the switch was in the j other hand. Circumstances were j largely adulterated with the probable j use of a long driving whip, the small I ted end of which looked as though it I was basking in a temperature of about --o I. For once Mr. Watson played second, and at some distance at that. Sam Bows. Harnett. We are having good rains today. Harnett county crops are looking well, but are yet grassy, and if we jhave a wet spell for any length of j time, it wid give the grass a good start on the farmers. There is a great deal of sickness in this neighborhood, but no serious cases. This community has been discussing a bee taking that took place some time I back. John M. Christian found a bee JONESBORO, N. C. WEDNESDAY, JUNE 18. I 890. tree, the 30th day of last August, near his house, and did not say anything about it. - He got one of his neighbors to make agum,intendingtocutitsoon, which led some of his neighbors to be lieve that there was a tree some where, and they made search all day last Sunday week, found the tree, and that night, cut it. Mrs. Christian found it was cut, and commenced looking around, and meeting Saul Cummings, asked him about the tree, and he knew all about it. His tale was that John Cummings, his two sons, Jim and Bob, and Ben Yarbor ough went about midnight, put out pickets around the tree, cut the honey out, put fire to the tree, and went their way rejoicing. Mr. Christian went before S. P. McKay, a J. P., and got a warrant for the robbers, and they, hearing that such steps had been taken, fled, and they were last heard from at, or near, Aberdeen, leaving their families' here. If they like tluit section, the people will try to get their families to them, and feel that we can do without them here. Success to the Leader. ' Cape Fear. Lillington. Mr. Editor: I have seen two or three copies of the Leader, and find that no one has given you any items from this place. It being near your old home, I am sure you will be glad to receive a few points from here, once in a while. Mr. Walter Kivett and wife were in town Monday on a visit to Mr. Kiv ett's mother. The picnic at McArtan's Mill on Friday seemed to excite some of the horses, as much as some of the boys. A horse driven by Messrs. Hugh and Hector McLean -ran away, while they were returning from the picnic. Mr. j Hugh McLean was badly injured, but is improving. Mr. Hector McLean! was sli-htly hurt Lillington is Improving just now.

Harvest time has come, and the seed-ticks and red-bugs are rairir.". The reapers will be compelled to scratch or do worse. We noticed oar friend, Mr. B rown, last Sunday evening, try ing to invent apian to dismount a tick that had been riding one of his finest fatening hogs, till he has become quite lean. Wei earn that the farmers exchange has on hand a full stock of chewing tobacco; having purchased at Lilling ton by wholesale, they will be able to sell to consumers cheap. Catch up. Summerville. I have just returned from a trip to Fayetteville, and am glad to report that crops between here and tha: thriving city are lookiug fine. Silas A. Salmon, of Lillington, whe accom panied me, says they cannot beat the Harnett county crops. He is a mer chant and a farmer, and no doubt kn ows whereof he speaks. Saturday I had the pleasure of hear- ing Col. Wharton J. Green deliver an address to the Alliance at Little River Academy. There were a goodly num ber of the members present, aiso sev eral who did not belong to this noble order. The latter were anxious to hear the distinguished gentleman, so it was made a public affair. Col. Green is an impressive talker, and by his oratorical power manages to secure the rapt attention of his audience. By the way, speaking cf Col. Green reminds me that he is a candidate for Congress from this district, and I hear that Harnett county will be almost solid for him. As long as our county has no candidate in the field, I think Col. Green, inasmuch as he did so much for this district when formerly a Representative in Congress, .should be returned. He is a whole-souled, big brained man, and will watch closelv after our interests. The primaries will be held next Sat urday, June 21, to select delegates to the County Convention which meets at Lillington on Monday, June 23rd. There should be a general turn out of the true and tried Democracy, and let none but good men be chosen as delegates. Let us have no more packed conventions in the interest of any candidate, but instead let us have a fair count at the primaries and in the conventions. More Anon. Cameron. There is something new under the sun. We saw it today. It is weeds and grass. If we did not know better, would take it for at least two years growth. Will give them the usual Jays of grace, when, if not killed out, will advertise and let to the lowest bidder. Wo are all too busy just now to do anything funny or serious.

Hcnsiey, has pone North for a few days, to perfect mat ters for the speedy building cf the Egypt & Osgood railroad. Recent hard dashes of rain have been very bad for brick makers, whi lost all the made for several days. Mercury has Ptoxl several times in the shade at OS degrees, which will d very well for summer, even if it don't get any hotter. 101 FAIR HAVEN. We have had fine rains the pr.t week, and crops are looking finely. We are still receiving the Leader twice a month. Of course.no one i to blame. Mrs. Sankie Jordan of Siler City, is visiting her parents, Mr. and Mr. H. Womble. Mr. Will Phillips, of Harpers X Roads, who has been very sick, is able to be out again, and was visiting rela tives at Fair Haven last Sundav. The funeral of Mrs. Nancy Phillips has been postponed until the fifth Sunday in June. . The last marriago was that of a young fellow who, thinking it would not be agreeable all around, concluded he would just steal the girl; but tho old lady found it out, and locked the girl up, and informed him he would not get her gal "cepin he axed for her." Of course he did so, and went his way rejoicing. ' -' " w I V t 4ft t rM ! . t 1 ..
