Now is the season when the an gler exaejerates his net results. It is time to list your taxables. A new assessment is in order this year. As to dying rich, as a matter of tact all represent the same amount of dust in the end. It's admitted, however, that when Peffer cut himself loose from the Populists lately he did not use a razor. The height of brutality has been reached by the man who struck his wife for singing "Because I Love You." Close obseryers have noticed that what is known as the frozen hand is closely connected with the cold shoulder. There's nothing in putting the Keina Mercedes on exhibition. Schley made a show of the whole Spanish lleet at Santiago. The names we receive at bap tism may not be very pretty, but they are much nicer than some we are called later in life. This continually being on his feet will only bring more pain to Aguinaldo, so he might as well acknowledge the corn now. The Jim Crow Car Law goes into effect Thursday. After this date se parate compartments will divide the races on the trains in this State. The daily portraits of the miss ing Clark baby as published by the New York papers Would, if pre served, make a valuable collection of pictures of all the known types of American babyhood. A $10,000,000 ice trast, to con trol the entire market, from Buffalo to Kansas City, of both the natural and artificial product, and with a probable increase of price, is an nounced as a sure thing. Cool, to say the least. One croaker or kicker or ca lamity howler can do untold damage to a town. The citizenship of the progressive town is united in har mony with one purpose in view the upbuilding of the community. Little can be effected without this harmony. The annual alumi address of Dr. E. T. White at Trinity College, will be delivered at 4 o'clock p. m., Tues day, June 6, instead of 11 a. m., as giyen on the program card. This change was made on account of the change of the baccalaureate sermon by Bishop Duncan. The students of the A. and M College, at Raleigh, held a largely attended meeting Saturday evening, and unanimously declared that their choice for the presidency of the in stitution was Dr. Geo. T. Winston, now of the Taxes University. A committee was appSinted to memo ralize the trustees to elect him. It is Dr. Tyreenow. Rev. W .C Tyree, pastor of the First Baptist church in this city, has had the de gree of Doctor of Divinity conferred upon him by Wake Foiest College, at its commencement, which has just ended. It is an honor most worthily bestowed, and will be carried with dignity and grace. Durham Sun. The summer girl of ninety-nine Now bids us to adore her; I wonder where she differs from The maids who went before her? One change of fashion, though, we note, Which doubtless will delight her 'Tis plain, in shady nooks and drives, That arms are growing tighter. Life. We have receiyed an inyitation to the forty-eighth anniversary of the Horner Military School, to be celebrated at the Opera House at Oxford June 1st. The Washington and the Franklin Literary Societies will carry out interesting programs The invitations are engraved through out with illuminated monogram at the head, and are among the neatest and handsomest we have seed this season. The University is just complet ing its 104th session, which has been the most successful of its history, both in regard to the number of students enrolled and the plans taken for enlarging its equipment and the spirit and work of its inner life. The total number of students matric ulated this session has been 044. Of these 149 were registered in the sum mer school, leaving 495 as the en rollment of the regular term. Read the sale of lands under mortgage advertised the first time in this issue. Mr. J. B. Roller is preparing to erect a nice brick office next to Hall's drug store. The 16 year old daughter of John Neal, one of our industrious colored citizens, died suddenly Sun day afternoon of paralysis. On Monday night a severe elece trie storm passed over Oxford and the rain came down in torrents, and now our people are not complaining of dry weather. As we go to press a walking race is on at Horner Park among some of our bankers, business men and warehousemen. The distance of 5 miles in one hour and from $5 to $25 is up for the winners. A baby boy was left at the house of Mr. Albert Eakes, of Oak Hill Township, last Friday night. The ittle thing was taken- in by Mrs. Eakes, and in the basket was a note saying he was 5 weeks old. They will keep the boy. We are under obligations to our friend Mr. Willie Gulick, who is now in Manila, for a copy of the Daily American published in that city. It is eight-pages, but not a very at tractive sheet, as it is poorly gotten up and badly printed. The handesomest invitation that has reached our office this season is that of the Agricultural and Mechan ical College, Raleigh. The com mencement is from June 4th to 7th. Among the graduates is our young townsman Mr. Thos. Smith. The grading of upper Hillsboro street is progressing well under the direction of Mr, Sam Wheeler; when completed it will be a great improve ment. Why cannot the Ton Com missioners do some work on the sidewalks as well as the middle of the streets? Mr. Thos. Turner rather took his Oxford friends by surprise Monday afternoon by taking unto himself a help meet. He was married at the residence of Rev. J. R. Pace to Miss Forester, of Henderson, who was at one time at the Orphan Asylum. We extend congratulations and wish him a prosperons and happy life. We have repeatedly requested some one to give us the news from Creedmoor, as we have no regular correspondent from this thriving place. There is certainly no lack of talent there and the enterprising people are always hustling and moy- ing things. Cannot Messrs. Sam Lyon, and Early Fleming or Prof. Buchanan secure us a correspondent and thereby help push Creedmoor along? Mr. Charley Turner, our most excellent jailor and who is one of the expert manipulators of wood at the Large Baggy Factory of Taylor & Cannady, had the misfortune on Thursday to get his right hand caught in one of the machines', severely cut ting his thumb and two fingers. Glad to note that his wounds are curing up nicely. This makes the fourth one that has been lacerated by the machines. We learn from the Orphans' Friend that Secretary of the United States Senate, Gen, W. R. Cox, has accepted the invitation to deliver the address at the Grand Lodge 24th of June, (St. John's Day) Celebration here next month. Gen. Cox is a prom inent Mason and a fine speaker and we may expect a fine address from him. The John H. Mills Memorial Services will also be held here at the same time, consequently many other prominent speakers are expected to be present. We can all prate of experience being the only teacher as well as the costliest, yet we go on indulging in unnecessary expense in that line when we could just as well as not save ourselves lots of trouble by prof iting by the lessons of others. But we won't learnwe are so all-wise in our own conceit, we blunder along, listening to the tale of others' experience and thinking in our own superior fashion that such a thing could neyer happen to us. The Southern Railway Company propose to run a special train to Durham on next Tuesday, June Gth, leaving Oxford at 7 A. M., returning leaves Durham at G P. M., proyided as many as fifty tickets be sold. This will giye our citizens an opportunity of attending Trinity Commencement and of hearing the address of our townsman Dr. E. T. White, and also the sermon of Bishop Duncan. Fair for round trip $140. Those who ex pect to attend will please register their names at once at Hancock's drug store. Owing to the severe storm that prevailed Monday night the closing exercises of Mrs. A. A. Hick's school was postponed until Saturday night. If you wish to be entertained by a bright set of children go to the Opera House. The Commencement exercises of the Horner Military School will com mence with the drill of the two com panies for the Drill Medal today, June 1st, at 4 p. m.f at Horner School Park. The closing exercises will be at the Opera House at 8:30 p m. Music by Baltimore Italian string band. The public is most cordially invited to attend. The gift ed Dr. E. T. White will present the medal. A few days ago a crop lien was filed for registration in the Register of Deeds office, in which a mortgage on an old rooster and hen was in cluded. We never heard of such a thing before, and the mortgagee must have cleaned up the deck to make sure of his loan. This leads to say that more Crop liens have been giyen this year than for many years past which shows that our farmers are hard up. We are indeed sorry to learn from the Henderson Gold Leaf of the death of our old time friend, Mr. W. H. Wade, of Vance, which occur red at his home in Vance one day last week. He was 82 years old and was numbered among the prominent and successful farmers of that county and greatly esteemed by all who knew nim. He was a steadfast friend, kind and generous neighbor, and a faithful christian. He left a laige family and a wide circle of friends to mourn his departure. May he rest in peace. Some people talk about newspa pers receiying complimentary tickets to shows, entertainments, etc. The people are certainly not posted. The newspapers pay more for tickets than any other class of people, and there is absolutely no such thing as a complimentary ticket ever giyen a printing office. Pay cash for your advertising and the paper could buy the tickets and have money left. If the merchant should eriye a dollar's worth of sugar lor a fifty cent ticket to a show, you would call him a fool. The newspaper columns are just as valuable to the editor as the sugar is to the merchant. Durham Sun. The closing exercises of the school of the Colored Orphan Asy lum took place at the Opera House Tuesday night, and largely attended by our colored citizens. The enter tainment was very creditable indeed, and showed that the children were receiving the best of training under Superintendent Shepard, and his painstaking corps of teachers. This is one of the most creditable institu tions in the Old North State, and deserves well at the hands of the people. The children acquitted them selves well, and were neatly attired, showing that they were well cared for. United we go forward divided we fall by the wayside in the grand march of improvements that have taken hold of many towns in the state. Hence it is of great import ance that every citizen of Oxford should unite as one man to further the interest of any enterprise that in the least tends to benefit Oxford. Come off at once, and don't stand around on the streets and growl be cause things are not going to suit you, but rather go to work and aid those in a substantial way, who are doing their best to advance the pros perty of the town. Yes go down in your pockets, put up money to help out the town. THE MODREK BEAUTY Thrives on good food and sunshine, with plenty of exercise in the open air. Her rorm glows with health and her face blooms with its beauty.

I wish to thank the people through out the entire community for their many acts of kindness during the sad affliction through which we have been caused to pass. It is sad, Oh! so sad to part with our loved ones, but we thank God witn gratitude in our very soul, that we live in a com munity, among a people whose lives are made up of noble acts and kind ly deeds. Do we live among angels in human form? it almost seems so. How grateful we feel again dear neighbors and let us thank you all. J. Ed. Duncan, May 29th, 1899. Stem, N. C.

Death of a Greatly Beloved Young Lady near Stem. Miss Exie Duncan, who had reach ed her 20th year, died at the home of her father, Mr. Woodson Duncan, near Stem, Saturday after a short illness of pneumonia. The sad news as it was told from neighbor to neighbor called forth expressions of profound sorrow and heartfelt sym pathy for the almost suddenly be reaved family. Miss Exie was the youngest of 13 children, and the first one called to go up higher and rest in the shadows of the Great White Throne. She loved home better than society, and it was in the home circle that she shone best. She possessed a happy disposition, and was always amiable, kind and sweet tempered and was the idol of a loving household. She loved truth and honor, and was con scientious in ail that she said and did. She was a zealous member of the Tally Ho Baptist Church, and was rarely ever absent from her place in the sanctuary. Her funeral took place at the church Sunday af ternoon conducted by Dr. R. H. Marsh, of Oxford, in the presence of a large concourse of sorrowing neighbors and friends. Her death leaves an aching void in the home where she was the idol ized darling. The darkness of night has settled down on this once happy household, but through it all comes the voice of the great Comforter, saying: "Here bring your wounded heart; Here tell your anguish; Earth has no sorrow That Heaven cannot heal." Don't Miss tbe 83.68'g. Not a man in town who won't feel bet ter with himself for making such a pants purchase. Sold only by E. H. Crenshaw Uo., Oxford, JS. U. Closing Exercises of Francis Milliard School. The closing exercises of this fine institution of learning took place Tuesday night in the chapel and the attendance was so large that it could not begin to accommodate the large number who sought admission, and manv returned to their homes. The - mf program was an admirably arranged one and was participated in by the following girls and boys who acquit ted themselves with great credit Misses Fannie Webb, Laura Wil hams, Alma Jones, Mary Shotwell, Mamie Lyon, May White, Mildred Taylor, Kate Horner, Lalage Rice, Lucy Webb, Lillie Wilkinson and Julia Usry, and Masters John Brown and James White. Miss Lizzie Hilliard, the music teacher, took part in the program and entertained the large and appre ciative audience with fine instru mental and yocal music. Each one of the participants show ed the excellent training they had received at the hands of the able and efficient faculty of the Francis Hilr- liard School. One of the most delightful features of the evenings's entertainment was the graduating essay of Miss Fannie Webb, of Oxford. Her subject was "Atalanta's Race" and her treatment of it was interesting and instructive, and her delivery pleasing and grace ful. Miss Webb finished the course of the school and graduated with dis tinction. Her appearance indicated the thorough training that she had received in this school and her in structors nave every reason to con gratulate themselves upon sending out such a well equipped young woman as a representative of their work. Miss Webb is a daughter of our townsman Mr. Joseph A. Webb and she enters upon the duties of life with the loving good wishes of a host of relatives and friends. We predict for her a most useful career. Her diploma was presented by Rev. Francis W. Hilliard in a most appro priate and pleasing manner. Ramon Beats Them all Henry Blssell, Hatton, Arkansas, says : I cannot find words to explain the worth of Ramon's Liver Pills and Ramon's Re lief also.

Ramon's beats them all. I have sold and used Ramon's for ten years with always the greatest' satisfaction.
