It is eggs-actly the shape of a gourd, only where the stem leaves the main body it tapers down and then bulges out again. Many of our people have examined it, and pronounce it a strange freak of nature. The list of new magistrates lias been received at last, as wiil be seen in another column. It will be a relief to the people of North Wilkesboro township to learn that the I)ouglassite3 made no provision for it at all, and it af fords us a great deal of pleasure to omit it in publishing the list.

He had been in feeble health for some time and his death was not unexpected. Had he lived until August he would have been 83 years old. He was a consistent member of the Methodist church and had been for many years; and was one of the oldest Masbijs in this section. He leaves nine children to mourn their loss, be sides a host of relatives' and friends. The funeral, services were conducted from the.Pxesby- erian church Sunday morning at 11 o'clock by Presiding Elder Barnctt and Rev. P. L. lerrell, after which the Masons took charge of the remains and they were interred under the auspices of their impressive ceremony. Although a very inclement lay, yet a large crowd 01 sorrowing friends were out to pay the last sad tribute of respect to one who they held m the highest esteem. Alexander-afeCilNinerr. On Sunday morning of : last week Mr. James A. Alexander, of this place, and Miss Fanrye McGlamery, daughter of Mr. Jes se McGlamery of Lewis Furk township, were united iu mar riage at the home of Esq. Will Fletcher, by that gentleman.' It was a Gretna Green affair, and Mr. Alexander succeeded iu steal ing his blushing young bride "the night before, much to the chagrin of the "old folks."

PETAIJOTG TO EOAD MATTERS. Whnt Countv CnmmlMioner Did In Regard to Some of tne Roitdn. The petition of R. W.

The report of W. H. Edmin ston, overseer on the Mt. Zion road from Atkins shop to Lewis Fork creek, was received and the supervisors of Lewis Fork were ordered to appoint overseer with hands to work said road. Changed Ills Mind. Frank Page, a white man who works in McLean's harness 6hop, made a mild attempt to commit suicide Monday. He went to the home of Mr. C. L. Upchurch and said he wanted to lay down. He claimed that he had taken four bottles of laudanum, but later said that Lc had not taken but About 0 o'clock that night le beg?,? to get cick and come to the conclusion that he did not want to "shutlle on this mortal coil" iust yet, :'.ud called far physician. Dr. Horton soon ar rived on the scene and at once discovered that it was not lauda- nunPthat rjis making him sick, but some 01 the "aforesaid regu- ator" that was. getting in its woik. He is about 35 years old and is lrom Winston, at which place he has a family. ervou People nd tho-;c who are all tired out. ana have that tired leeling or sicic headache can be relieved 01 all these pvmptoms bv taking r Hood s Sarsaparilla, which gives nerve, mental and bodily strength and thoroughly purifies the blood. It also creates a good appotite, cures indigestion, heartburn and dyspepsia. Hood's Pills are ensy to take, easy in action ana sure in enect. 25c. It will be an cgreable surprise to persoirs subject to attacks of bilious colic to le.irn lout prompt relief may be had by taking Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera ar.d Diarrhoea Remedy. Iu many in stances the attack may be pre- vented by taking this remedy as soon as the first symptoms of the disease appear. 25 and 50 cent bottles lor 6ale by Dr. Geo. Doughton, Druggist. To get out of debt I am going to close out my entire 6tock of hardware, and just as quick as I can, too. JNow is your time to get goods cheap. I want to sat isfy those I owe, and I need your money to do it with. N. M. Al len. The fact that Hood's Sarsapa rilla, once fairly tried, becomes the favorite spring medicine, speaks volumes for its excellence and merit. Compliments are healthful when taken in moderation. Those who never read tho ad vertisements in' their newspapers miss more than they presttmc. Jonathan Kenison, of Bolan, Worth county,; Iowa, yhb'; had been troubled with rheumatism in his back, arms, and shoulders, read an item in .his paper About how a prominent German citizen of Ft. Madison had' been1 cured. He procured the same medicine, and to use his. own words: "It cured me right up." He also says: A neighbor.. and his wife were both sick in bed with rheu matism. Their boy was over to my house and' said they were so bad that he had to do the cook ing. I told him -of Chamberlain's Pain Balm and how it had cured me, he procured a bottle . of it and it cured thepj up in a week. 50 cent bottles for t- ilo by Dr. Geo. Doughttnj Druggist.
