Adcock, of Oak Hill, laid on our table Wednesday a head of cab bage weighing 12 pounds. He struck us in the nick of time as our pocket Dook presented an empty appearance, In fact it only contained a button with four hole In it, and we were thinking whether or not we should have to take up a collection to keep us until we sold our lean 'possum dog.

Mr. and Mrs. Alex Feild returned from a pleasant visit to Western North Carolina on Tuesday. They were in Statesville at the time of the awful rail road wreck. Mr. Feild visited the fatal spot and wonders how anybody escaped death on the fatal train. In speaking of the weather Judge Walter Clement says "there is nothing like it after 37ou once get use to it. I am not stuck on it by any means, but if it continues I expect to see a majority of the people In Oxford stuck in the mud knee deep unless Col. R. Crusher comes steaming to their relief." Another heavy railroad wreck on the L. E. & St. Louis road near Evansville, Ind., Sept 1, The train went down an embankment 20 feet. Five, the engineer, fireman and breakmen were scalled to death. Thirty passenger injured, some of whom will die. The train caught on fire and burned. Nice and Beautiful. For several days we have seen wagon load after wagon load of various kinds of Furniture being unloaded at the store of A. Land is & Sons, and we concluded we would see what they had gotten in. We ventured in and was met by the afia ble Will Landis, and we asked him what he intended to do with so much wood put up in so many beautiful and attaactive designs. His reply was "to sell to the people in order that they may live com fortably as well as make their homes neat and attractive." We agree with the sen timent expressed and can tell the people that if they need anything in the shape of house furnishings A. Landis & Sons is the place to get them. In onr ramble through the various departments we saw exquisite parlor suits from $35 to $100, chamber suits from $15 to $125, hat racks, dining tables, wardrobes and lounges. As to chairs we saw an endless variety as to style and sizes In plush and reed goods. A large assortment of pretty tables are in stock as well as mattreses, wire, hair and shuck. As to cheap grades of furniture the stock is very large and well assorted. We ask you to go and see for yourself as the stock Is complete and very large and will be sold at bottom round figures and no mistake. The only radical cure for rheumatism is to eliminate from the blood the acid that causes the disease. This is thorough ly effected by the persevering use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. Persist until cured. The process may be slow, but the result is sure. FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 1891. UVi H WORK OF FIENDS. A TRAIN DASHED DOWN TO DESTRUC TION KILLING 22 PtOPLE. A Fast Passenger Train oh the W. If. C. Railroad Thrown from 3rd Creek Bridge 75 feet Below-Fiends caused the Awful Iisaster bI!ilaclns the Rails. The horrible disaster, says the Land mark of Aug. 27th, in the history of rail roading in North Carolina occurred at 2 o clock this morning at Bostian's bridge, over Third creek, two miles west of States ville. At that hour west-bound passenger train No. 9, which had passed Statesville on time at 1 :52 a.m., was hurled from the top of the bridge, a distance of 60 to 75 feet, the engine, tender, baggage and 2nd class car, the first-class car "Saluda" and the private car of Supt. Bridgers, all go ing overboard. The bridge was swept clear of iron from end to end. George Bowley, of Atlanta, and one or two other passengers, who made their way from the cars alive, came on foot to town and gave the news of the accident. In a little while the town was aroused. Citi zens in vehicles began hastening to the scene and the work of rescue began.Some of the passengers had crawled from the cars and were perched, dazed, on their tops. Axes were put to work and the cars cut open and as many of the passengers as could he found were dragged out. Some dead, some alive. By dawn great crowds of people were on the ground and noth ing was left undone. The dead and the wounded were brought to town, wounded disposed of at hotels and private houses the dead laid side by side on the floor of the Farmers Tobacco Warehouse and the bodies tagged. The train fell ;from the north side of the bridge. The engine lies partly up the embankment on the west side of creek. The first-class coach lies on top of the 2d class, and Supt. Bridger's car partly cov ers the sleeper. Engineer West was found pinioned under his cab. Within arms reach of him were the bodies of two of the female passengers. How the bodies got from the first-class coach to the en gine will never be known. Miss Luellen Pool held the head of her mother out of the water until her strength was exhaus ted, when the head dropped and she drowned. The Superintendent's car was empty. The dead are Wm. West, engineer, of Salisbury ; Warren Fry, fireman, of Salis bury; H. K. Leinster, baggage master, of Statesville; Wm. Houston, of Greensboro; Perry Barnett, of Asheville; Samuel Gor man, of Asheville; Charles Bennett, of Hendersonville; W. J. Fisher, Campo bello, S. C: W. E.

Sikes, Clarksville, Tenn; Dock Wells, colored porter; Miss Ophelia Moore . Helena, Ark ; Mrs. White, Mem phis, Tenn ; C. G. Weber, Pittsburg, Pa. The Injured are George Bowley, slight ly; Conductor Spaugh, will recover; Con ductor H. C. Clepper, will recover; Por ter will recover; O. W. Lawson, of Louis ville, Ky; Miss L. Pool, Williamston, will recover; Mrs. R, C. Moore, Helena, Ark; B. M. Estes, Jr., Flagman Shoaf, of Lex ington ; John Gaze, of Asheville, will re cover; Geo. W. Saunderlin, not serious; R. E.

Bailey, of Danville, Va., seriously; Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Sink, of Lexington, who were on their trip were dangerously hu t and graves hopes are entertained for their recovery. Colonel Benehan Cameron was on the train and extricating himself went to work like a hero and succeeded In saving several lives, among which was Auditor Sanderlin. He went to a farm house close by without shoes and outclothing, secured conveyance and rode to Statesville to give the alarm. The people of this town and Col. A. B.Andrews, with other railroad officials, did everything in their power to relieve the wounded as well as properly care for the dead. The coroner's jury after several days investigation returned the following ver dict on Monday: "The jury find from the evidence and our own personal examination that the above named (naming the killed) persons came to their death by the wrecking of the train on the Western North Carolina railway bridge over Third Creek in Ire dell county, N. C, Thursday morning, Aug. 27, 1891 ; the said wrecking of the train being caused by a loose rail, the bolts and spikes of the same having been taken out by some person or persons un knownto the jury with tools or implements belonging to the said railway company, which said tools or Implements were by gross negligence on the part of said rail way company left in an open shed, acces sible to every passer by. We also find that several of the cross-ties at and near the break in said railway track where the said loose rail was displaced was unsound fiSQIPW and should have been replaced, and that the superstructure on the bridge was in part defective and unsafe. Further, that the high rate of speed maintained in running trains over this bridge deserves and has the censure of this jury. P- C. Carlton, foreman; Geo. F. Sheph ard, J. Stephany, J. U. Lambrecht, M. C. Williams, J. 8. Ramsey, jury; G. W. Clegg, coroner. WAREHOUSE CHANGES. Oxford Tobacco Market will be Man ned by a Strong Team. It is a fact, it is an undeniable fact, that Oxford is one of the best tobacco markets in the State. She has more warehouses than any other market In North Carolina. There are important changes in the man agement of these warehouses which we hope will enure both to the benefit of the market and the farmers who sell here. To begin with the Johnson warehouse has been rented to Mr. W. I. Wilkerson, who has had experience in the warehouse business and is noted for his fair dealing and close attention to the Interest of the farmers. He always pays the highest prices. He is polite, atten tive and obliging. No warehouseman has ever done busiress in the State who has had less trouble with his customers than W. I. Wilkerson, Esq. We know he is all right and we are willing to com mend him as every inch a gentleman. The Minor warehouse will be run as we learn under tne management ot tne proprietor. He has ample room for han dling large quantities of tobacco. The Meadows warehouse is so well lo cated that it has always been a popular place for the sale of the farmer's tobacco. We congratulate the farmers that two of Granville county's worthy young men who understand all about tobacco, Messrs. W. J. Stem and H. T. Beasley, have rent ed this house where they propose to pay the highest prices for all grades of to bacco from the cheapest to the finest. They will strive to please and are deter mined to do so as they think they can compete with any warehouse in the State for getting good prices. The old reliable firm of Bullock & Mitchell are now prepared in the most approved style to sell large quantities of tobacco. They have a record In the past that is no where to be excelled. There are no warehousemen anywhere in this country more favorably known than the gentlemen who run the Banner warehouse. The Alliance warehouse at Oxford is a monument to the liberality and enter prise of that organization in Granville county. Heretofore it has been under the management of that sterling handler of tobacco Mr. R. F. Knott. Mr. Knott having declined to run this warehouse for another year Dr. J. G. Hunt succeeds him and will have charge of this popular warehouse. The name of Dr. Hunt is a guarantee that it v ill be run on a scale of great success. His experience in the business has qualified him to carry on the business with practical ability and his in fluence with the farmers will have no lit tle weight in adding to the sales of the Alliance warehouse. While it is not absolutely certain who will take charge of the Center wareiiouse the rumor has obtained currency that two liberal and enterprising young gentle men Messrs. D. C Hunt and E. O. Brans- ford have rented it for another year. These gentlemen if they do take it in charge will push the business with an en ergy and efficiency that will be a guaran tee of success. We would suggest to all the parties in the afore mentioned warehouses that the Public Ledger is quite a popular sheet among the farmers of Granville and goes to the fireside or more iamnies tnan any paper ever published in the county. We believe it would pay our warehousemen to use the columns of the Public Ledger freely as an advertising medium. We have again and again done gratuitous work in endeavoring to build up the Ox ford tobacco market, and we expect to continue to work on this same line if those who have control of the warehouses here will co-operate with us any spirit of liberality. We learn that the corps of tobacco buy- . . . m f . J 1 A.

WHAT HAS TAKEN PLACE WITHIN HER BORDERS. A General Epitome or Recent Occur. rences Ar.oind and About Us, From the Mountains to Ihe Kea, as Culled from onr Male Papers. Next year there will be a great gather ing of Baptists at Raleigh. It will be at the celecration of the foreign mission board of North Carolina. The Baptist State mission board has decided to change the place of meeting of the next State convention of that Church from Raleigh to Goldsboro. Col. Bennehan Cameron has been ap pointed by the Governor as the represen tative of the North Carolina National Guard at the World's Exposition at Chicago. Aaron Jenkins, of Gaston county, died several days since at the age of ninety four. He was the father of the late D. II . Jenkins, ex-Treasurer of the State. Mr. Jenkins lived to see his descendants to the fifth generation. The pardoning power is still being applied by the present Governor as it was by his several predecessors in office. Courts are at a discount under the exer cise of this one-man prerogative. A general amnesty would be a great labor saving operation. Two more criminals turned loose. A serious case ot poisoning occurred near Charlotte a few days ago. J. L. Dea ton ana wile, wen Known citizens, are critically ill from the effects of rough on rats administered by a colored cook. Both the victims were taken suddenly 111 short ly after breakfast and an investigation re vealed the fact as stated. Allianceman at Milton, Caswell county, with others from Person and Halifax county, Va., recently passed reso lutions to the effect that they will not co. operate with any party nor vote for any man for any political office who does not adopt the measures they approve. They demand reform In the administration of the government and approve the Ocala platform. One of the best, truest, noblest of North Carolinians Is lying at the point of death, without any prospect of recovery, at his home at Greensboro. Tens of thousands of North Carolinians who revere high character and noble manhood will be pro foundly regretful to know that Alfred M Scales is very near the end of his mortal pilgrimage.

Farmers Let Granville be Well Rep resen ted by Getting up a Full Ex liibit of Our Resources. The Southern Inter-State Exposition presents to the people of Granville as well as those of every county in North Carolina, free of cost, an opportunity never before offered to advertise to the world their resources. This fact should awaken a universal in terest and stimulate each county to show what thev are caPitble of prod uc.in:, and thus compete to excel. Granville county is behimL-no State In the State in variety and value of natural resources. It will require individual in terest and effort to make a creditable ex hibit and we appeal to one and all the ladies especially, to begin at once and aid in placing our grand old county where she belongs at the head of all competi tors in the roll for a superior exhibit. We have the means to make it so and If we fall it will simply be for want of general interest. The time is upon us when this work must begin. There are agents in each township appointed to urge the impor tance of this matter. Articles delivered to them or if advised as to their collec tion, will be sent to the Exposition free of cost. The railroads have agreed to furnish free transportation. It is earnestly asked that the work of collecting exhibits be begun at once. Don't put it off for the last day or the last week before the Exposition begins, (Oct. 1st). Look around at once and see what you can find. Report early to your township agent what you have for exhibition and he will see that it is forwarded free of charge. J. B. Hunter, Manager Granville Co. Exhibit. Now Try This.
