There are five inmates of the Soldiers Home in Raleigh and seven applications n file. The very neat and attractive cottage nf yr. W. Z. Mitchell on Broad street is nearl3' completed. A movement will be made to secure State aid for the Soldiers' Home in Ral eigh. Tt is thought the Legislature will iirant it. It is true that Mrs. Simpkins had a heavy fall last week at the Opera House, but that is nothing to compare with the fall in the price of Overton's. Some one got very dry Saturday night and broke into the Beer Bottling House and drank all the' wanted, and no doubt stored some away for Sunday. Senator John B. Gordon joined the Farmers' Alliance last Tuesday, and the ceremonies attendant upon his initiation were conducted in a solemn form. Roy, the youngest son of Mr. Lester Wright, while riding his velocipede a few days ago tumbled and fell on his right arm breaking it just above the elbow. The only case where it can be tolera ted is where the young man having gone to see her several nights in the week in sists on holding an extra session Sunday afternoon. The Business Agency of the State Farmers' Alliance during the first year of its existence did a business of $324,700, and expects to double this amount the second year. The dwelling house occupied by a Mr. Latta, on the plantation of Mr. Z. W. Hampton near Flat River, was consumed by fire on Sunday last. Loss ft, 000. In sured for i$ r.oo. Julian lngJe, son of Rev. Mr. Ingle, of Henderson, who is attending the cele brated Horner School had the misfortune to badly sprain one of ankles on Friday while playing. "Hints for Christmas" is a leading topic of the day. As the season draws near the average head of a numerous family will receive "hints" of a much im pressive nature. Near Henrietta Mills, in" Rutherford count-, Holloway Wall shot and. killed his wife, dangerously wounding her brother and then put an end to his own life on Tuesday. The annual meeting of stockholders of Oxford iV. Olarksville Road took place in Oxford Wednesday. Colonel A. B. Andrews, the distinguished railroad man of North Carolina, was preseut. Mr. J. M. Howeil, a highly esteemed oil gentleman of Fishing Creek township, died at his home on Saturday. He was 84 years of age, and was the grandfather f .Mr J. Walter Howell. The water work question is being discussed before our worthy town com missi. mers by different Northern compa nies. We trust the- w ill move cautiously in the matter and we believe they will. Granville Superior Court added two more to the force of the Penitentiary last week One was a woman frr infanticide and the other for larceny. Sheriff Rogers took them to their new home on Friday. Rittenhouse, the private secretary of Colonel Polk, has played an underhand ed game wLi h has t aused a great deal of friction in the order He has been ex posed and will have to step down and out. A wedding took pi ice in Pennsboro, W. Va., a few days ago, the combined ages of the bride and groom being 171 years. The bride Mrs. Martha Dickin son aged 80, and the groom Norman Cal houn was 91. The ladies of the Methodist Church assisted by others who are not members of the congregation presented Mrs. W. L. Cunninggin with a handsome quilt artis tically made out of velvet and silk as a token of their high esteem. Overton, the Grocer, says his large and well selected stock must be sold, and we advise our readers to give him a call. Mi. Overton as well s,sthe polite Mr. Neal will wait on you with that urbanity char acteristic with all true Virginians. J. H. Carlisle has a cow that furnish ed his family of 0 with all tne milk and butter he used for Ihe year and Mrs. Car lisle sold $78 worth of milk besides; and killed on Friday a pig 13 months old that weighed 400 pounds even. Rev. Baylus Cade, who has just taken mPCDOOD charge of the Progressive Farmer says sure and give W. D. Lynch a call as he that paper "will not urge Alliance men haa a beautiful assortment of gold and who are pledged to Vance to vote against silver watches, clocks, bracelets, silver him, and that ary man who would thus ' ware, and all the novelties in plain and violate pledges would prove himself ut- set rings, which will be sold at the very terly unworthy of the confidence of his lowest possible price. Read his adver-fellow-cit'zen?." tlsement elsewhere. OXFORD, N. C, O3 On The large addition to the Drus store j of Mr. J. G.

Capt.W.A. Bobbitt is rapidly catching on to his duties as Clerk, and we predict he will make as eflicieht officer as Gran ville has had for years. Oxford's two policemen, Messrs.Renn and Leach, are now clothed in regular city uniform, but they have not caught on to the art of slinging the "billy." We welcome Mr. Z. W. Lyon and family to Oxford. What is Berea's loss is Oxford's gain. Mr. Lyon will join his brother, Mr. W.T. Lyon, in the leaf trade. Mr. J. A. Roberts has been very suc cessful in selling stock in the large Cot ton Factory to be erected on the property of the Oxford Land Improvement Co. The residence of Capt. R. P. Hughes was the scene of a most enjoyable affair last Friday night. The Misses Hughes entertained their friends in a handsome manner. If you want to make any friend a present of a fine pocket knife or razor Owen, Barbour & Smith is the place to get them, Gregory says these goods are gilt edge. The excellent managers of the Opera House have booked for December 26th, the Madame Fry Conceit Company of Boston. It is said to be a fine musical organization. The county has published its finan cial statement, but at last accounts noth ing had been heard from that of the town. It is about time it made its appearance as it has had seven months rest in a pigeon hole. Capt. W. II. Snow, Supt. of Modern Barn Company, has patented a new tor bacco granulator. This Company will re move from High Point to Oxford first of the year and occupy the mammoth build ing in South Oxford. Brassfield's is coming to the front early with big hogs.

Can any other neighborhood in Granville beat this? Capt. W. A. Bobbitt and Lieut. B. S Royster attended the election of officers of the 3rd Regiment State Guard at Greensboro last week. All the old offi ces were re-elected. We congratulate Majoi Lanier upon his re-election as we believe he ranks among the best officers in the State. Everybody should be at the Opera House Friday night to see the charming story of " Little Lord Fauntleroy" render ed by the Harry Lindley Company. Mr. Lindley Is a splendid comedian and is ably supported by Miss Allia Halfordand a good company. Now is the time to buy your reserved seats at J. G. Hall's Drug Store.
