Randolph & Co., have treated themselyes to a new dray. Dr. J. G. Hunt, on Saturday, pulled up a beet in his garden that weighed lOi pounds. Higher averages on all grades is the undoubted record of the Ox- ford Tobacco Market. Tobacco, more tpjjacco and better tobacco. Oxford is given up to be the best place to sell it. ' It took 103 checks to pay off the big break of tobacco at the Banner Warehouse on Saturday. Mr. S H. Longuiire has return ed to Oxford, haying decided not ta go in business at Louisburg. Farmers bear the one particular fact iu mind, that Oxford's liberal tobacco buyers now hold orders for 4,000,000 pounds. - The Hump Back Club, of Oxford, is getting ready for business. They will have a bicycle race at Horner Park on the 10th of October. Our new postmaster, Mr. J. S. Hunt, is giving entire satisfaction to our people. It could not be oth erwise as" he is exceedingly accom modating. We regret to chronicle the ill ness of one of Oxford's attractive maidens, Miss May Hundley, but we trust she will rapidly improve, and be restored to health again. Messrs. Edwards & Winston have erected a pair of large scales in the rear of their store. It will be a great convenience to farmers who bring forage to to(vn for sale. The cry now is for another bar ber shop iu Oxford, in order that a man may not have to wait always to get a hair cut and shave. A good opening for the right kind of a bar ber. More tobacco and better tobacco was all the go in Oxford Friday, and high prices reigned supreme. All went as merry as a marriage bell to the jingle of the silver which flowed from our two banks. Mr. C. F. Kingsbury is now the owner of a thoroughbred horse, and "Judge" Clement says he makes the buggy wheels hum just the same as old C. F. K. does prices for tobacco at the Centre Warehouse floor. Tickets of invitation are out for the marriage of MissRoxie, daughter of Mr and Mrs. H. A. Stem, of Stem, and Mr. L. M. Crimes, agent for the Southern at that place, Wed nesday morning, Oct. 2nd, 1895. Mr. C. W. Bryan, of Tar River, is really a hustler on saving primings. He sold 3,490 pounds on our market Saturday, which netted him a fine average. He was highly pleased at the big prices paid on the Oxford Mar ket. There is a flue opening in Ox ford for a good, sober, first-class barber. The people are opposed to monopolies almost of any kind, be sides one barber shop is not suffi cient to supply the demand of the town. We would call special attention to Jackson's advertisement which appears in another eoluuie. He keeps the finest Foreign and Domes tic Fruits and Confectioaeries. He makes a specialty of Tenney's fine candies. There was a very interesting meeting held Sunday afternoon in the Presbyterian church by the good people of Oxford for the purpose of advancing the Sunday School. In teresting talks were made and much interest was manifested by all pres ent. The farmers of Granville, Per son, Vance, Durham, and Mecklen burg, needs only to keep their eyes on the reports of high prices for all grades of tobacco to convince them that Oxford is by long odds the mar ket to reach the goal on high aver ages. We regret to learn of the acci dent to our friend, Mr. Ruffin Fuller, near Carlton, on Friday. While fix ing a pin in the tongue of his wagon, the mules jumped off suddenly, knocking him down and two wheels nassed over his body. He received several bruises and was taken home, where at last accounts, was confined to his bed. "Only a Farmer's Daughter" was played at the Opera House on Saturday night to a good audienee ! The troupe is a good one, and met with a warm reception by the appre ciative audience present. The cos- tumes were elegant and every one of the actors were fine in their re spective roles. We wish them sue ! cess in their tour of the State. OXFORD, N. Ed. H. Osborn now has a hand some new dray pulled by a fine strawberry roan horse. He is buy ing tobacco largely this season. Chief Renn has greatly improv ed the drain across the street at the junction of Hillsboro and College streets by putting down terra cotta pipe, Our friend Alf Hobgood objects to our calling him a drummer for the Oxford tobacco market. We take it-back and say instead, that he is one of the great "spokes" in the hub of the livest tobacco market in'the State. Henry Blount, of Wilson, will lecture at the Opera House, Friday night, September 27. At the same time the choir from the Orphan Asy lum will render their latest and most attractive programme. Pro ceeds will b given to the Asylum. Admission 25 cents. W. A. Adams & Co. handled 1,000,000 pounds alone out of the last crop of tobacco, and will in crease that amount several hundred thousand pounds out of the crop now coming in. This is the kind of buyers we have on the Oxford mar ket, so bring your tobacco on to headquarters and you will reach the shingles" on prices on all grades. Mr. John F. Spencer, only son of Capt. A. F. Spencer, who left Ox ford in 18G8, died in San Jose, CalU fornia, on August 13th, in his 48th year, fie leaves a wire and daugh ter, besides a father and sister in Oxford to mourn his demise. He will be remembered by our older citizens as one of the young men around Oxford directly after the war. On Saturday night a man who had filled up on "corn likker" wan dered into the yard of Mr. A. A. Hicks, and retired to rest for the night: He was discovered .by two gentlemen who got a rug, rolled him on it and then after raising him off the ground proceeded to lower him as if placing him in a grave, at the same time saying "earth to earth, ashes to ashes." At this juncture he roused up and said : "I wish I could learn you all to be christians," and then staggered away to parts unknown. A Nice Dinner. A few days ago we found ourself in the company of Dr. J. G. Hunt, B. I. Breedlove and S. J. Currin guests at the hospitable board of Mr. M. A. Gregory. Although an old bachelor it is here that hospitality prevails in the most approved style and our friend loads his table with the best of viands in great profusion and prepared with the skill of an ex pert, and he is a host whose fame is well known for. entertaining his friends with a lavish hand. It is a good place for a hungry editor to hang up his hat every now and then. Plea of a Suffering People. Oh ! thou mighty hog pen that sways and holds in the hollow of thy trough and on thy floor the destiny and health of as good peoole as ever the hot sun shone on, who live with in the corporate limits of any town, we beseech thee to waft such an in tense odor that it will strike the del icate smeller of one who reigns su preme over what kind of air the peo ple shall breathe, and we further be seech thee to stay thy awful, bony hand that carries such a deadly shudder over our dear people if it be possible until the Health Officer can be coaxed to enter a plea in behalf of a suffering people who are forced to breathe the splendiferous odors, we beg in the name of a suffering and afflicted people to stay thy hand until thou hast warned the Health Officer of the impending danger that awaits the people unless he should splice his backbone and force every body to clean up their back lots and hog pens. Now thou great and mighty pig pen that has caused many a good soul to languish on a bed and be tossed about with intense fever, desist thy awful poisonous sceptre until the pleadings of an af flicted people can prevail upon the stony heart of the great head of the Hog Pens to haye them cleaned up and the poisonous odors removed, all of which we ask in the name of the law and justiee. When Baby was sick, we gave her Castoria. When she was a Child, she cried for Castoria. When she became Miss, she clung to Castoria. When she had Children, she gave them Castoria.

DEATH OF ERNEST AHIS. A Former Oxford Young Man Passes Peacefully Away. It is to us a matter of deep regret to record the death of the worthy and noble young man whose name heads this article, which occurred at the home of his sister, Mrs. J. A. Fishburne, in Waynesboro, Va., on Monday morning. He was the only son of Col. J. S. Amis. Under the kind, judicious and religious train ing of pious parents who taught both by precept and example he fulfilled after reaching manhood the fruition of their hopes. He was a bright, amiable, manly boy. He had a smile and kind word for all with whom he came in contact. His conscientious, upright conduct, his sweetness of disposition, his consecration to duty and his frank, pleasant face made him a general favorite. He had an unselfish disposition and a readiness to discharge every duty that de volved upon him. Of pacific dispo sition and modest nature he possess ed great moral and physical courage. He not only was superior to the temptations which so often tempt the young to do, but he set an exam ple to his youthful associates which was manifestly salutary and refining. He was e.qually beloyed by those who were thrown intimately with him in early boyhood and by those who knew him after he had attained unto man's estate. The subject of this sketch was born in Granville eouuty in Septem ber, A. D., 1868. He attended the celebrated Horner School at Oxford and always took a high stand in his studies, and won the respect and af fection of his preceptors. Not long after leaving school he obtained a position as traveling salesman for the sale of lactopeptine. In this ca pacity he served his employers' so well that his salary was advanced and bis employers desired to retain his services, but he determined to go into the real estate business, and as Winston, N. C, was a progressive and enterprising place, in which he saw the road to success, h. located there and although still quite young soon did a prosperous business. The people there soon appreciated him as a valuable acquisition in their community and thence forward his career was marked by success. He was strongly permeated by the teach ings that fond parents had so faiths fully and sedulously impressed on his receptive heart and mind and consequently it was natural that he should have attached himself to the Presbyterian church the church the portals of whose door he entered as a Sunday school scholar almost in his infancy. After locating at Winston he was united in marriage to one of its love ly and accomplished daughters one who was possessed of all of the love ly and lovable requirements to make the lives of the devoted couple re plete with ail the joys of wedded life ever youchsafed to mortals in their earthly pilgrimage. When they vis ited Oxford his friends whose name is legion greeted her with a warmth of regard that was genuine and un affected. Many were the blessings inyoked upon the heads of the bride and groom. Alas that consumption, so relentless when it puts its fatal clasp on human life, should have marked as its victim him m whose memory this hurried tribute is writ ten. How our heart and that of the community goes out in sympathy with his truly bereaved parents. To his widowed wife we only regret that we can say naught to soothe her lac erated feelings. Only God who rules can afford assuagement to her in this sad hour of her darkness and gloom. We forbear to say more at present Some friend of the deceased we doubt not will yet write an appropriate eu logy of him. The remains were taken to Win ston for interment. One advantage of taking 'Ayer's Sarsa Darilla to purify the blood is that you need not infringe upon your hours of labor nor deny yourseli any food that agrees with you. In a word, you are not compelled to starve or laf, while taking it. These are recommendations worth considering. John G. M auger, editor of the Sun beam. Seligman, Mo., who named Grove Cleveland for the Presidency in Nov., 1882, while he was Mayor of .Buffalo, JN Y., Is enthusiastic in his praise of Cham berlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. He says: "I have used it for the past five years and consider it the best preparation of she. kind in the market It ia as staple as sugar and coffee in this section. It is an article of merit and should be used in every household. For sale by J. G. Hall, druggist. S. F. Yinger, Dewart, Fa,, writes: Mr. Haring of this place has u ed your rem edy for the piles and recommends it very highly. He gave uae your address. I would like to know on what terms and price you sell to dealers. Let me hear from you and oblige. J. G. Hall, drug gist. . AS USUAL, OXFORD AHEAD ! Our Market. "Gets There" Always With Both Feet. Tremendous sales of Tobacco last Friday ! Oxford is always in the front ! That Oxford is one of the best To bacco markets to be found goes with out saying. The farmers far and neaj haye found this out, and they are quick to perceive the best markets. We are proud that Oxford is now leading. It is but natural that she should. We have got the location have got 6 warehouses all being run by live, active, clever, liberal and enterprising warehousemen. They are amply supplied with large aincuts of money. The buyers on this market are live and wide-awake and energetic "freeze ou" toallthe tobacco that comes to our market, and it is constantly pouring into this market in large volumes. On last Friday the redoubtab'e C. F. Kingsbury, who on that day open ed the Center warehouse, made things whoop and don't you forget it. He has a way of doing that way. After his sale was over then the selling continued unceasingly during the day and you could hear the music of the auctioneer ring out until the close of the sales and still it was absolutely impossible to get through so immense was the supply of leaf tobacco on the market. As a consequence the sales were contin ued until Saturday 2 o'clock. Our warehousemen all vied with each other in sending joy to the hearts of the farmers. It was a gala time for our old town, and the very air seem ed to be laden with the odor of the golden colored leaf. We could write several columns on each and every warehouseman in Oxford and still not do justice to the subject. - Hurrrah ! Three cheers for the Oxford market ! It has come on time and has come to stay. A REiTARKABLE ACCIDENT. The Wonder is How She Ever Es caped. Alive. There lives in the Southern part of Brassfield township, in Granyille county, at the residence of the late Jerry Estes, Mrs. Caroline Grissom. The dwelling is a two stary frame house with a dining room attached with a well under or at the edge of the dining room porch. On Friday night, Sept. 6, about one o'clock Mrs. Grissom says she had a dream that she was going to visit a neighbor and dressed herself, went out of the house, locked the door behind her and started by way of the dining room and well, and she thought that on her way to the neighbor's she had a fence to get over. When she reached the well she says thinking it the fence she climbed the curb and fell 15 or 20 feet to the water when she awoke. The well is about 30 feet 10 or more in water. She pull ed herself up to the top of the water and gave the alarm, and called her brother, who with his family live with her in the same house. Her brother heard her cries and after some little time he asked her where was she, and was told in the well and to go at once and get the neighbors to help get her out. She was so calm and collected that she gave all direc tions how and in what manner to get her out. She kept herself above water with her back and feet against the wall. After she was taken out it was found that she was not hurt or bruised in any way. Mrs. Grissom has been an invalid for a great many years, besides she is quite old. She has been getting on as well as usual since the accident. About Italy. A musical and literary entertain ment will be giyen at the . Opera House Friday night, September 27. The choir of the Orphan Asylum will render an attractive program, and Mr. Henry Blount, of Wilson, will give his celebrated lecture, "Beyond the Alps Lies Italy." Go and learn about Italy, or the Alps, or whatever the lecturer speaks of. At the same time you will aid the Asylum, for whose benefit the lecture is given. Twenty-five cents. While in Chicago, Mr. Charles L. Kah er, a prominent shoe merchant of Des Moines, Iowa, had quite a serious time of it. lie took such a severe cold that he could hardly talk or navigate, but the prompt use of Chamberlain's Cough Rem edy cured him of his cold so quickly that others at the hotel who had bad colds fol lowed his example and bf-ft dozen per sons ordered it from the nearest drug store. They were profuse in their thanks to Mr Kahler for telling them how to cure a bad cold so quickly. For sale by J. G. Hall, druggist. GOING TO AND FRO. Folks You Know and I Know, Who flove Aronnd.
