Its Lands are Finding a Wide Market A Regular Rush to Secure Building Lots Homes forthe People inaGlo. rious Locality. The Oxford boom is known and talk ed about now all over this country. It has long since been known as a salubrious place as a place of culture and refinement, and as one of the best places to live in that could be found in many dajs journey. But this knowledge was confined to those whoso good fort une it had been to visit the place. The visitors ever spoke of its delights and pleasant influences, but they never par- tnculanzed much, and the consequence was that a full knowledge of the lovely place was only held by those who lived there or had visited there. Generation after generation has lived there, enjoying the advantages of the locality and greatly appreciating them; but the people were modest, and it nev er occurred to them for along, long time to talk cf their pleasant and attractive surroundings to the outside world. Not long aince a number of gentlemen awoke to the fact that this was too fa vored a locality on God's earth to be en joyed by a few of the many people in it. They knew that if it were well known, that many people would choose it as a place of residence in preference to any spot on earth. They then and there de termined that tho world at large should know of Oxford, and set to work to tell of its advantages to tho people every where. They expected that as soon as the place became known, that many people would seek hemes there. They then de termined that a provision should be made in favor of all who should desire to go there. They organized a land and i uprovement company,secured control of several hundred acres of land, and divided it into pretty and convenient lots. Then they announced to the world what Ox ford was, and let it be known that there were opportunities for securing homes, or of securing lots on which to build homes on very reasonable terms. The result of this action was aston ishing. People began to go to Oxford from many places, and people from all over the country began to make in- quines aoout it. inere was almost a wild rush to get stock in the land im provement company, and it is learned that many shares have been purchased by people m Richmond, Baltimore, Philadelphia and other cities north and w st. Statements of v hat the place is and what its prospects are have reached almost every where. Eye witnesses have spread and verified the statements and people are seeking to purchase skiok and lots in Oxford without making personal examinations. Every mail bringa to the managers of the land company numerous inquiries, as well as numerous applications for stock accompanied by 3pot cash. They seem to fear that if they delay, they will be thut out altogether from the oppor tunities to purchase, and perbapsin this supposition they are right. At the present rate of applications and pnrchases all the stock will b3 soon taken. Raleigh has already taken a large number of shares, and Raleigh share holders are being added to the list every day. This eager rush to get stock in Oxford is not the result of airy speculations or exaggerated statement. Nothing but plain facts have been circulated, but these facts are sufficiently tempting and attractive to make people-wish that they owned homes there; "and it is on these statements alone, (the truth of which is known by everybody who has been to the place) that the unprecedented boom which Oxford is now having, was estab lished. There are behind the movement such men as inspire confidence when their names are mentioned: Mr. W. E. Owen, Dr. H. C. Herndon, Maj. N. A. Gregory, Mr. W. C. Reed, Mr. W. A. Davis, Mr. R. T. Gray, Mr. C. M. Hawkins, Mr. A. H. A. Williams, Mr. J. B. Booth and Mr. R. R. Roberts. i hey are men who are interested in the town, and who are deeply interested in its development and progress. They deiire that its advantages shall be made the most of and enjoyed by a good ele ment of people. They offer such people the opportunity of going to Oxford on the easiest and most favorable terms, and when they go they will find a cordial and warm welcome, and ' will have the encouragement and support of the peo pie in all their enterprises. Oxford is in the centre of the section which grows the finest yellow tobacco in the world, and it is destined to become a great metropolis for this article o commerce. The climate of Oxford is generous and salubrious. In ten years there has been no death from consumption. Pulmon ary diseases are very rare, and epidem ics never occur. Mineral springs abound near the town. The celebrated Rock Brook Springs are in a few minutes' ride, and near hear are the famous Buffalo Lithia Springs and the head agency for the Panacea Springs. Oxford draw3 from many counties in Virginia and South Carolina a3 well as North Carolina, and is a market for Granville, parts of Durham, Orange, Vance, Franklin, Nash, Wilson and Pitt counties in North Carolina, and for Hal ifax, Mecklenburg, Lunenburg and other counties in Virginia. The land company will continue to set forth the advantages of the place through agents and publications. A young man who can furnish good references can now secure a connection with the company by application or correspondence. PRICE 5 CENTS. CITY CHURCI1ES 10-DAY.

A Pleasant Incident in Manteo Loif'i I. O. O. F. There was a very interesting and pleasant incident in Manteo Lodge I. O. O. F. last night. Some time ago Mr. C. H. Lewellen, was elected captain of the degree team. This office is a responsible and exacting one, and demands much work and at tention. Mr. Lewellen has given both to his work, and is consequently at tho head of one of the most efficient team in the country. The Lodge greatly ap preciates his work and at the last meet ing they showed it. Mr. Lewellen was summoned to stand forth. At first he thought he was about to be arraigned for something, and be gan to think of what he had or had not done. A moment more changed his reflec tions, for he was presented with a hand some chain, and a beautiful emblematic medal of the order, which he is now wearing with just pride. He responded very pleasantly and ap preciatively to the presentation, which was a genuine surprise to him. A Raleigh Boy s High Stand, Some time ago Mr. Arthur Johnson, son of Mr. D. T. Johnson, of this city, went to Eastman Business college at Poughkeepsie,N. Y. He is one of the most successful of all the many students.there, and ha3 taken a very high stand. Re ports have been received here stating that he scored one hundred on bis ex aminations. Thi3 is the pebfkct mark, and is very rarely attained. The Chronicle takes takes pleasure in noting this success of a Raleigh boy. It offers its hearty congratulations to Mr. Johnson, and also congratulates Ral eigh on it3 bright representative there.
