chnm is setci'ig to be a great
,',n for courts. There are annually
reeks of Tegular terms of feu-
fourteen w
....rior Court
and eighs of Federal
,,jrt, to saying nothing of llie special
turns' of both State and Federal courts
that are held every year. Some kind
cf cour: -is in session over iiolf the
' ' The two weeks' term of .October Fed
eral court adjourned Friday, and this
nomine the regular two weeks' term of
October Superior Court convened, Judge
Shaw presiding. The first week is for
ti'e trial of criminal cases and the
recond for civil .business. There are
ab..tit 100 cases on the criminal docket,
clrcli is expected to be disposed of by
the' .end of th- week. Ex-Sheriff John
y Cook is foreman of the grand jury,
Tvh;ch is composed of men of a high
order of intelligence and integrity,
livlze Shaw's f harge to the grand jury
"was" listened to with the closest atten
tion, and was easily one of the ablest
nnd clearest charges ever heard in the
Guilford county court house. He went
fully intoithe duties and responsibilities
of a grand juror and explained clearly
the different phases of the law with,
wlnA the jury has to deal.
Tbe residence of Mr. Marcellus Jef
freys, in lower south Ashe street, just
bprond the city limits, was campletely
destroyed by fire last night. The mem
bers of the family barely had time to
make their escape from the burning
building and nothing whatever was
saved from the flames. An alarm was
turned in and two companies of the fire,
ricpfrtment responded, but it was impos
sible to render any assistance, as'tihe
dwelling was beyond the reach off a
water plug. The origin of the fire is
unknown.
The special sent from here to The
Tost Friday concerning the arrest Of
Jnhn Terry, in which it was stated
that 'the Ilaleigh officials declined to
pay the expenses incurred by tfhe offi
cers here, was inaccurate. The Post
correspondent: -wrote "the message upon
v.hat was considered good authority,
rnd without going to the sheriffs office
to make an investigation, as he should
h;m done. As is so often the case with
second-hand news, it was distorted.
Esquire J. A. PriMhett was called on
it Lis home early; yesterday morning

I'nenian and Miss Lula Devinney, of
ih' city. '
Judge Boyd and Marshal Millikan
