Millinery DBirtat !
Miss Wellman, our mil

As you know, almost any
body with fingers the

cheap frame, a yard or so
of velvet, a ribborn or
two, put them together
, and dub the result a hat.
But the verdict of wo
mankind is that it's better
to let good milliners do
the work, so If you want
an up-to-date hat trim

have to come to head

WILTON CYCLONE SWEPT.
Great Destruction Mr. J. W. Harris Seri
riously Insjured, Etc.
Wii.tox, March 26th, 1901.
, A cyclone parsed over part of Brass
field Township this evening-, about 5
o'clock, doing; great damage to buil
dings and injuring several persons.
Cannot state exact number. It struck
Wilton, unrooling the mill house,
completely demolished the large store
and another store used as a school
house and damaged the dwelling, all
the property of J. W. Harris.
To view the wreck it seems almost
impossible that any person could es
cape death, b lve persons were m
the large store. J. W. Harris was
cut in two places on the head, back
injured, Ulysees, son, arm broken;
Aubry, son, . hurt: Chester, another
son, was uninjured, and J. S. (Jooeh
who escaped with a few scratches on
face. Also two tenent houses blown
down, injuring a colored man, and
another house damaged. Large oaks
uprooted, broken off at the ground,
and tops blown off. The L. of AV. P.
White's was moved. 11. It. Strother
lost every house on his place, but no
one was injured. W. 11. Walters has
only his dwelling and one tenant
left standing, and 5 or G children in
jured in tenants families. J. C. Usry
had 3 houses destroyed. E. Mitchell
lost a pack house. Tom McGhee sta
bles, but did not hurt his horse. P.
A. White had some out houses de
stroyed. One colored man at Mr.
Strother's run out of his house and
has not been seen since.
We visited the wreck at Wilton to-
nignt. Jeopie may reau oi cyciones,
tornadoes, etc., but imagination can
not picture such destruction. Other
buildings within ") yards of the large
store which was 100 feet long, were
uninjured.
Several persons saw the cyclone
approaching and say they saw balls
of fire with the dark cloud.
Mr. Harris' dwelling was consider
bly damaged, stem of chimney off, win
dows blown in, furniture blown and
scattered about the rooms, bricks
Mown between the joist and roof, fal
ling upon the plastering and burst
ing through.
No deaths thus far reported. The
storm came from the southwest go
ing northeast, but to view the scene
of damage no one could tell the di
rection as the large store was thrown
east and the other west, and trees
were pointing east, west and north
east. The stock of goods of Mr.
Harris were scattered in every direc
tion. Have not heard the length of cy
clone nor the amount of damage in
the track. W. P. LYON.

Short Review of Citizens Who Have Earned
Distinction-Men who Make a Town.
MR. J. M. CURRIN.
A business man of wide experience
in the affairs of life, a public spirited
citizen who gives liberal support to
all industries that are worthy, is Mr.
J. M. Currin. By well-directed efforts,
by close application to the details of
business and energy in the pursuit of
the end in view, he has earned dis-
! tinction and reputation as a wise and
careful man of business; bv active
participation in all questions which
involve the interests of thetown,and
co-operation in every good cause, he .
has made himself a valuable citizen. !
Mr. Currin is an exceedingly liberal i
contributor to all worthy objects.
charitable, religious and social. His j
assistance is accorded whenever he is
satisfied that it is needed and that
such need is to be encouraged.
Though not a college-bred man. he
has been trained in mind and in hab
its of thought by experience and con
tact with the world. Experience, it
has been said, is the best teacher and
some have gone so far as to say that
a thing is never really letirned until
it has become part of one's experi
ence. Mr. Currin, by virtue of the re
sponsible position held by him, has
come in contact with some of the
foremost men of the day men who
are noted as organizers and direc
tors of great enterprises. His influ
ence was exceedingly useiul in ef-
establishment of the Ox
ford Cotton Mills.
Socifilly, Mr. Currin is an interest
ing and pleasant companion.
DR. SAM. D. BOOTH.
A stout man of medium statue rid
ing by in somewhat of a hurry, driv
ing a sorrel mare ask any man, wo
man or child in Granville county and
you will be told that this is Dr. Sam
liootn. iis ngure anu name are
well-known on every road in w ell
nigh all the homes of the county. He
has been standing by beds of sickness
for well, let us say, more than a
quarter of a century- A physician of
great skill and learning, he brings to
natural talent for the healing art
powers of study and labor, to which
is added now wide and diversified ex
perience. in diagnosis lie Is unsur
passed in the State and his powers
in this respect have been noticed by
eminent members of his profession in
the great Northern cities, where he
has attended lectures and clinics. Dr.
SamRooth is what every physician
should be sympathetic. One would
naturally suppose' that one who is
the witness of so much of woe and
pain would soon become callous and
unmoved by suffering: not so with
him. He has a large heart full of
kindly impulses, and, whatever may
be said of him, no one can lay the
charge of selfishness at his door.
Dr. Booth is keenly alive to all mat
ters of public concern which engage
the attention of thoughtful men. He
is a close observer of people and
things,and keeps abreast of the times
is a pleasing talker and fond of con
versation. A Confederate veteran
he knows the war from Bethel to Ap
pomattox and is never so happy as
when recounting the bravery and
feats of his eoiimides-in-arms.
REV. A. McCULLEN.
There has been no abler, stronger
more consecrated man m tne JUetiio
dist pulpit in latter years than the
subject of this sketch. One who is
forced by his daily ministrations and
contact with the evil that is in the
world is oftentimes led to take a pes
simistic view of the order of things
and is prone to think more of total
depravity and kindred subjects than
of the bright and more silvery lining
to the cloud of darkness. It is but
human to fall into error of supposing
that, when "beauteous May sleeps in
December's tomb", the Spring is gone
forever and Wintry gloom is come to
remain. Mr. McCullen has the bright,
sunny, genial disposition which keeps
him from falling into this mistaken
conception of man and nature. His
Christianity is of the substantial,
cheerful type, and his sermons, while
pointing out, to a sufficient extent,
the evils of the world and society,
are yet full of hopefulness and breathe
fragrance and promise to man in his
daily life and in his aspirations and
noble ambitions. Mr. McCullen Is
blessed with a keen sense and appre
ciation of humor and has an intelli
gent knowledge of its uses and places.
Bold and aggressive, he knows not
the meaning of fear and is unhesitat
ing in the expressions of his opinions.
MR. E. T. RAWLINS.
When it is said that Mr. E. T. Raw
lins is one of the oldest merchants in
Oxford, it by no means follows that
he is an old man. He would resent
such an imputation and call your at
tention, jn answer thereto, to his
youthful appearance and springy
steps as evidence of his youthfulness.
When you enter the headquarters of
the Rawlins Dry Goods and ShoeCo.,
you are sure to be received with
hearty cheer and courteous treat
ment," whether on business or pleas
ure bent. A cheerful greeting you
will receive from this good man when
ever and wherever you encounter
him. Mr. Rawlins gives the closest
attention to his business, at the same
time that his interest is by no means
a selfish ne, but, like all men of good
judgment, he lends it to whatever
has value and is advantageous to his
neighbors and his town.
MR. PAUL CANNADY KILLED.
Cyclone in Creedmoor section Monday
Afternoon.
We get the followingacCount of the
cyclone which passed over the Creed
moor section from the Durham
Herald, of Tuesday which is a good
report of the disaster:
A cyclone struck Granville county
near Creedmoor, late yesterday after
noon, killing one man, breaking a
girl's arm and destroying consider
able propertjr.
The one killed was Paul Cannady,
a well-to-do and highly respected,
farmer. The little daughter of Med
Jackson, also a well-to-do white
citizen, had her arm broken.
So far as could be learned the cy
clone first struck the home of Mr.
Jackson, about two miles from
Creedmoor, "which entirely demolish
ed, together with all of his out-houses.
While the family was trying
to get. to places of safety a piece
of timber struck the little daughter
breaking her arm. No other member
of the family was hurt.
The next damage reported was at
the home of Mr. Paul Cannady. The
home was unroofed and Mrs. Can
nady carried out in the yard by the
force of the winds. The husband
went to her rescue and just as he
stooped to pick her up he was struck
by a piece of timber an killed. Mrs.
Cannady escaped with but few
bruises.
Mr. Cannady was well known to a
large number of our people. He was
one of the most highly respected
young farmers in that section of the
county and was well-to-do. About
two years ago he wedded Miss Percy
Beasley, of Granville county, and she

The Public Ledger deeply deplores
the loss of such a valuable citizen of
Granville as the popular Paul Can
. 1 J ..11 . 1 m
nauy, anu joins an classes oi our
citizens in extending the deepest
sympathy to loved ones. Mr. Can
nady was prominently mentioned as
a candidate for Legislature last year
owing to his sterling integrity and
exemplary traits of character. His
funeral was one of the largest ever
held in that section of the county
showing the high esteem in which he
was held.
Attractions for the Ladies,
The elaborate Spring Millinery dis
play of Long Bros, will be spread out
Saturday, the 30th, foryou to go into
ectacies over. Miss Wellman has dis
played excellent taste in her selec
tions, and the latest fads in high
grade and medium priced hats will
be shown. A most cordial invita
tion is extended the ladies of Oxford
and the county to come and see th
new season's creations.
Combination of Brains and Skill.
Elsewhere in this issue appears
notice of the formation of a copart
nership between two of our skillet
physician, Dr. Benj. K. Hays andDv
Thomas L. Booth, both of Oxfoiu.
for the purpose of doing a joint med
ical practice in Oxford and Granville
county. While it is their purpose to
do a general practice, yet they desire
to make a specialty of Office Prac
tice and to emphasize this branch of
their work more strongly than has
yet.been attempted in this county.
In order to accomplish this they have
leased the office building located on
College street, between the law office
of Mr. John W.Hays and the Epis
copal church, and have equipped the
same with the best appliances known
to modern medical science. They
have a reception room, private office
and consultation room and an ope
rating room. The great modern
force in medicine electricity has not
been overlooked. Besides a hand
battery they have a large cabinet
battery in which can be generated
any kind of current desired, which
can also be regulated and applied
with whatever force in necessary.
Concerning the two men, Dr. Hays
is a graduate of the University Col
lege of Medicine, of Richmond, Va.,
and for two years was associated
with Dr. Hunter McGuire at St. Luke
Hospital, Richmond, Va., as his as
sistant. There he lived in daily con
tact with that surgeon and often per
formed operations under his skilled
guidance. After six years of practice
he again resumed his studies by spen
ding the first 2 months of the present
year in New York, making a specialty
of the eye, oar and throat.
The senior member of this firm, Dr.
T. L. Booth, is so well known in the
county as a successful physician com
ment Is unnecessary. -Suffice it to
say that he is a physician, born of a
physcian,from a family of physicians
and for a number of years has enjoy
ed one of the widest and best prac
tices in the county. He is a clof-e
student and thoroughly abreast of
of the times.
It seems to us that the strong per
sonality of these two gentlemen, their
close friendship and the perfect har
mony in which they work makes this
combination all that could be desired,
and as the editor is a warm friend of
both these gentlemen wishes them
great success in their new relations.
