A small party of excursionists, this writer among the number, paid the nice little town of Carthage a visit on Thursday the 16th. - WTe were well looked after en route by the pleasant Land accommodating manager of the Carthage Railroad, Mr. W. C. Petty, On arriving at Carthage our party di vided and roamed around over the town to view the sights. We came very near saying went astray, but it is to be hoped that no one did. We can not speak for any1 except those with whom we were in company most of the day, and so far as butwardtappearan- jces go that number kepj in the true i and onward way that eventually led to j a good dinner at the hotel of Mr. Campbell. The dinner was well cook j ed, well served not in the usual order j of a regular hotel but more' after the fashion of a good old-time social feast, where the food was placed on in such i quantities that the table "groaned be neath its burdeny' and we can assure you that it was faithfully attended to j by those who pat around it. It seems there was a misunderstanding some way, for mine host tells me he prepar ed by an order sent in previous, to ae- j commodate thirty guests, and only ! five of us dined there. I will not un dertake to give the menu of the din ner but will say that it was complete throughout, sufficiently so to satisfy the taste of the most fastidious. I j suppose the other visitors were well j entertained. Any one in visiting Car- j thage would do well to give Mr. Camp bell a call. The court house is quite a nice build ing; we were all through it. There is a fine view to be had of the surrouod ing country from the top of it, but as the atmosphere was not very clear we could not see a great way off. What interested us most was the j buggy shops of Messrs. Tyson & Jones; j we could have spent the entire day I looking at the different mechanical! j operations. The men employed were j alert and active at their posts. We saw some, very fine vehicles already fipished awaiting transportation, and the gentleman who showed us through told us that their orders were far ahead of the capacity to tarn them out. We also visited the shop that turns out hacks ready for use; these are used for chipping pine trees. They are of superior quality and are in great 1 demand. We arc informed that the shop U owned and operated by a col ored man. The dry goods store kept by Tyson & J ones is well worthy, of patronage. No where have we been able to pro cure goods at so reasonable a price and of so good a quality as these. The millinery st6re kept by Mrs. Bryan and Miss Christie Shaw would do credit to a much larger town, their goods are stylish, of nice quality and as great variety as you will find in any first-class store of the kind. The ladies in charge are very pleasant and attentive to customers and should be liberally patronized. We had a fine drive from the Shaw hotel to the northwestern limits of the town. The road over which we travel ed was almost as good as macadamiz ed roads. We passed the principal schools, the Methodist church, and several nice villa residences; returning we made our way to the station, arriv ing in time to catch our train and to save our heads from a shower of rain that began to pour down as we moved out of town. None of the party left behind, all on board cheerf ul and hap py. Arriving at Cameron train on R. & A. A. L. Railroad behind time, but the delay was not tedious as we had agreeable company. Train came promptly at the end of forty minutes, and soon landed us at Southern Pines with no limbs lost, no heads smashed, and we trust no "hearts broken." We hope the crowd enjoyed the day. Every one seemed to be pleased with the trip. It was made up entirely of northern people', and you may put us down as one also, but tee Inoic that we are of the "South southy." Skram E. Cila.
