SHORT-STOPS IN THE LOCAL LINE Gathered and Condensed for the Eye of the Reader. Dr. Graham Hunt has had his front porch newly covered. Mr. Pete Bullock has made some improvements to his home near Ox ford. Mr. J. M. Currin has had the rooms of his commodious residence repapered. There were about 20 loads of to bacco on our market Tuesday and fetched good prices. A man may be in the wroncr a thousand times, but he seldom, if eyer, savs "forgive me." Col. W. B. Ballou, our large export buyer, shipped on Monday IS car loads of tobacco to Japan. -The Oxford & Coast Line Rail road continues its long sleep, while the earth slips away from its bed. Mr. J. I) Brooks stands head as an early gardener, as he had peas and Irish potatoes for dinner Monday. Mr. Liouis de Lacroix is proving a very successful farmer. He has another fine wheat crop this year. Mr. Nat Marks has moyed his family to Watkins, and gone in the mercantile business at that place. Our Warehousemen are now in the throws of the trash season, and have a large quantity to dispose of. Time heals all wounds, but some of us are not permitted to remain on earth long enough to see the com plete cure. Mr. Len Pitchford has bought the house and lot of his brother, Mr. Lee Pitchford, and will take posses sion the first of June. Mr. F. C. Spencer wishes to thank the Odd Fellows and friends for the kindness which was shown him during his sickness. Field day at Horner Military School Friday, and the boys will no doubt acquit themselves well in field sports. The program is a good one. Owing to the commencement ex ercises ot ihe Oxford Seminary at the Baptist Church Sunday, there will be no services in the Methodist Church. Mr. H. H. Eatman, the expert painter, has made Mrs. Mary C, Cannady's residence on College Street, one of the handsomest in Oxford. In one day last week the Atlan tic Coast Line hauled 1,120,000 quarts of strawberries valued at $100,000. Twenty years ago it haul ed 1,120 quarts. The second nine of the Horner Military School crossed bats with the Graded School nine of Durham Saturday. The score stood 15 to 12 in favor of the Horner boys. Why should not our people take steps to have a public library in Ox ford? It would be of lasting bene fit to our community, and we hope steps will be taken to establish one. . The Episcopal Convention is in session at Tarboro, and Revs. R. B. Owens, and Francis Hilliard, and Misses Mary Horner and Margaret Hilliard, and Messrs. Sidney Hunt and Frank Gregory are in attend ance. The editor warmly thanks Mrs. Kate Hays Fleming, the accomplish ed music teacher, for a handsome invitation to attend the commence ment exercises of the Oakland High School at the wide-awake town of Gastonia, May 24-27th. Mr. Parkerson, of the Standard Oil Company, was here Monday, met our merchants and the oil matter was adjusted satisfactorily. We are pleased to know that Mr. J. F. White, our clever wholesale grocer will con tinue to sell the oil in Oxford. Mr. James Rodgers, the fathor of Mrs. H. H. Harper, died at the home of his daughter in Lynchburg Sunday afternoon, and the remains were brought to Henderson for in terment. We extend our sympathies to her in her sudden bereavement. Monday afternoon Gid Thorp, colored, stopped in front of Terry's barber shop with a small rifle in his hand when the hammer struck the steps and went off putting a ball in Tank Daniel leg. The wound is not a serious one, and Tank will be all right in a few days. It is said that local managers, at the convention of United Confed erate Veterans, in Charleston snub bed General Joe Wheeler. They would not permit him to ride in the procession, and the cause was that they were afraid he would over shadow the other notables. OXFORD, Oxford's five saloon men closed up Wednesday and all went fishing, and Oxford was a try town for one day. The editor thanks John Young for a basket of the finest strawber ries we have seen thisseason. Also the first beet of the season. If you want to enjoy good music be sure and go out Thursday night and hear the First North Carolina Regiment Band at the Opera House. That Sunday assemblage of 27, 000 persons to see a base ball game in Chicago must have been orderly, because only eighteen men were put out. As the hot weather is upon us everybody should thoroughly cleanse their lots and sprinkle lime. The brick warehouse on College street should receive the attention of the Health officer. The Kinston Free Press speaks in terms of praise of the memorial address of Col. A. C. Davis. He spoke eighteen minutes. What a relief from the old time hour and a half addresses! Now we must beware of the patent headache powder. It is said to have just killed its fifth victim in Pittsburg, in the person of Mrs Celia Butler, who died twenty minutes after taking one. It may be the coat that makes the man, but it is undoubtedly the hat that makes the woman happy or otherwise according to its kin ship to what she has pictured in her mind as her ideal. The editor thanks Miss Linda Lyon for a very neat invitation to attend the seventh annual commence ment of the State Normal School at Greensboro, Tuesday and Wednes day, May 23-24th. At Severn, N. C, May 12th, Rev. J. W. Hoggard, for forty years pastor of Patecasi and Meherren Baptist churches, died, aged SO years. He was a man of great learn ing and was beloved by all. The Sunday School Children of the Episcopal Church will have a lawn party in the yard of Mrs. Kate White, on Friday evening for the benefit of the school. Ice cream and cake and strawberries will be served. The Horner Cadets marched down town Tuesday afternoon in command of Major Shirley, and pre sented a handsome appearance. They were in full uniform with white duck pants. This is the first time they have marched down this session. There will be a regular meeting of the Oxford Chapter of Royal Arch Masons on Monday night next, and all companions are earnestly request ed to be present as the election of officers for the ensueing term will take place. J. J. Medforp, Sec. The man who says there is no music in Dixie has no music in his soul says the Durham Sun. If there is light in a sunbeam, aroma from flowers, beauty in a star, freshness in morning, grace in woman and ad miration for true heroism, just so surely is there music, genuine music, in Dixie. Among the most noted of the distinguished North Carolinian's at the Reunion at Charleston was J. S. Carr who spent his money freely in behalf of many of the old soldiers from this State who attended the Reunion. He was unanimously elect ed Major General of North Carolina Veterans. The question arises what has be come of the financial exhibit of the town of Oxford? The law requires that one shall be posted each year in order that the people may know what the money has been paidout for. It was a duty incumbent upon the retiring Board of Commissioners and should be made out by the clerk. News and Observer says: The papers state that the child whom Hose brutally knocked across the room because it cried, has died and the wife and mother has lost her mind. In denouncing lynch law, let no one lose sight of the fact that Hose deserved all he got. The pro test against lynch law must be for the good of the community. The brute deserves more punishment than could be meted out to him. A wise man says: "Boys who walk the streets with their hats on the back of their heads and long hair hanging oyer their foreheads, with cigarettes and vulgarity in their mouths, are cheaper stuff than old shoes; nobody wants them at any price. Men will not employ them; sensible girls will not marry them; they are not worth the keeping, and they will neyer be able to keep themselves." Exchange. N. C, THURSDAY, MAY 18, L899. Read the admintrators notice of A. W. Jones. Prof. Humes lectured before the Shakespeare Club Monday evening at the Francis Hilliard School. The many friends of Mr. Thomas J. Anderson, formerly general pas senger agent of the Seaboard Air Line, will be delighted to hear that he has been called to a very respon sible and lucrative position with one of the leading railway and steam- j ship lines entering at New York. The old veterans from Granville to Charleston were Messrs. John A. Williams, Sid Daniel, J. P. Cannady, Ben Thorp, J. K. Wilkerson, Leroy Elliott, L. Elliott, John Currin, Spencer O'Brien and J. T. Murray. They returned on Saturday delight ed with their trip, and full of praise for Col. J. S. Carr. We learn that we made a mis take in saying that the large num ber of accounts allowed last week by the Board of Town Commissioners were only for one month. Some of the items were of several months standing. That of $293, especially was for two months street work as quite a number of our streets have been but in good order. We are also pleased to learn that the last ad ministration was an economical one and left the finances of the town in good shape. We learn that when our veterans on their way to Charleston in passing through Greensboro were furnished with an elegant lunch through the kindness of several of Greensboro's fairest and most loyely daughters. The delegation of ladies was headed by Mrs. Dalton. Among the most graceful and efficient in serving the old vets were Mrs. Col. W. H. Osborn and her mother Mrs. Cunningham. To the good ladies of Greensboro who thus comforted the inner man the old veterans gave three rousing cheers. WHEN NATURK Needs assistance It may be best to render it prouiply, but one should remember to use even the most perfect remedies only wlien needed. The bebt and most simple and gentle remedy is the Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California Fig oyrup (Jo. The Klondike sells a gauze vest at 10 cents. ) cent ladies mayll. IN THE HOLY TEMPLE. Fine Services at Methodist Church The dear Children. Sunday was indeed a beautiful day and our people turned out en masse to worship the Lord in the beauty of holliness. The services at the Methodist Church in the morning were of an interesting character, and was crowded with an intelligent and refined cougiegation. The very able and popular pastor, Rev. M. H. Tuttle, discussed Mis sions in a forcible and attractive manner and hit those opposed to Foreign missions some heavy blows. One of the interesting features of the services was the superior singing by the singing class at the Orphan Asylum, which was evidently en joyed. The highly accomplished musician, Miss Eva Minor, presided at the organ. Rev. J. R. Pace as sisted in the services, The children of the Sunday School had their annual exercises at night, and so popular are these exercises that the church was inadequate to afford sitting room to the large crowd who were eager to enjoy the evening's entertainment. The pul pit and altar were handsomely decor ated with flowers and twining vines, and at the back of the pulpit were those glorious words, "Suffer little children to come unto me." The children excited uni versal admiration, and showed plain ly the intelligent instruction they had received under the skillful train ing of Miss Lela Routon. Miss Daisy Minor presided at the organ and rendered the hymns in a highly pleasing and touching manner. The exercises throughout were so intel ligently and beautifully executed throughout the whole of the judic iously arranged program, and each one of the children did so exceed ingly well that the Public Ledger would only be too glad to mention the names of several who charmed all present by the yery superior ex cellence they exhibited.

S. Royster, who has attained to high distinction in the Masonic Fraternity, is at Wilming ton today, Wednesday, assisting in the imposing ceremonies of laying the corner stone of the Masonic Temple in that city. ELEGANT ENTERTAINflENT. "Midnight Fire" Finely Rendered at Opera House Friday Night. The Opera House Friday night presented a handsome scene as it was crowded with as intelligent and refined audience as ever assembled in any town to witness the rendition of Bertram & Willard's "Midnight Fire," ably assisted by some of Ox ford's fine talent. It was for the benefit of the Presbyterian church, and as these gentlemen had success fully played "Capt. Dick" here last year everybody knew they would present something good, and they succeeded admirably as the "Mid night Fire" proved a charming suc cess, and rounds of applause greeted each act. The play is a realistic comedy drama, full of pure sentiment, and moral in tone, and gives a fine op portunity for meritorious acting, which our Oxford amateurs took ad vantage of. "Jack .Clark," although a poor but honest fireman, showed conclu sively that he was a man of charac ter and brain, with a big heart beat ing in his manly bosom, and was deeply in love with the charming "Helen Merrill," Col. Jrank Hob good as "Jack Clark" was a success in eyery particular, and did some cleyer acting. He is quite a fine looking young gentleman and re ceived many compliments. The vi vacious Miss Nellie Currin took the part of "Helen" which she portrayed with ease and grace, to the great pleasure of the audience, as she is one of Oxford's favorites and of course made an ideal "Helen." The charming Miss Grace Clement as "Roxey" won the praise of all, and the graceful Miss Rosa Crews as "Jessie Clark" was an ideal friend and a faithful sister, and Miss Lucy Williams as "Mrs. Jeremiah Potts" in costume and acting could not have been improved on. Her side partner, Prof. J. M. Oldham, as "Fritz Poppenheimer" in make-up was a gem of a character, and made a hit, receiying rounds of applause. Mr. A. D. Hobgood as "Geo. Baker" was layish with his affections and money, and acted his part well. Mr. W. A. Devin took the part of "John Merrill" and was quite a handsome looking old gentleman. "Pat Mc Phin," a jolly, all-round policeman, who laid Chief Day in the shade, was taken by Judge Walter Clement and was a success as spokesman for the picnic and felt at home as a po-. liceman. The best imitation of a tramp we ever saw was Capt. S. W. Minor as "The Stranger" and he was also good in the character he as sumed afterwards. Cleve Holloway certainly filled the bill as "Bobby Potts" and always had his "dad" in trouble. "Abo" and "Dinah" in the persons of Messrs. Phil Holt and James Osborn contributed their share to the enjoyment of the even ing, and were good imitations of the negro. It goes without saying that Bertram and Wiliard are fine actors and cleyer gentlemen and have again placed the Oxford people under obligations for another splendid en tertainment, and whenever they come again they will receive a warm welcome. From beginning to end the "Mid night Fire" was a success, and too much praise cannot be accorded the young ladies and gentlemen who took part in the play for the benefit of the Presbyterian church, and we congratulate each and every one upon the great success achieved. They have the thanks of the com munity for the enjoyable hours spent Friday night. Death of Green A. Reams. Durham Sun of May 11 says, Mr. Green A. Reams died Wednesday evening at the Watts Hospital where he had been for treatment for the past three or four weeks. The cause of his death was softening of the brain and spinal affection. Death came to him in a gradual and peaceful manner. Mr. Reams was a native of Fish ing Creek township, Granville coun ty, was 68 years of age. and had been a resident of Durham for many years. He was familiarly and high ly esteemed by his friends, and he counted them by the scores. It is with sorrow they heard the news of his death, and the passing away of his familial form and genial ways. In the fall of the year of 52 Mr. Reams married Miss Isabella Turner, of Granville, who died in the summer of 1806. WANTED. A good renter for the"Bellevue Farm," on Grassy creek, in North Granville.

Lawson Powell, colored, who is an exhorter in his church has come to grief because he laid violent hands on the word of his Maker. As cheap as bibles are he allowed one or more to stick to his fingers. He has been the trusted janitor at the Barracks of the Horner School for years, but lately the Cadets have been miss ing a great many things and Powell was suspicioned, and on Monday his house was searched and quite a number of things were found; among them a nice bible. Powell was arrested by Chief Day and tried before Mayor Minor and bound over to court. He failed to giye bond and is now a boarder at Hotel de Turner and will have time to meditate upon the fate of an exhorter who actually stole the word of God that he was trying to teachiiis people to rever ence.
