COUNTY NEWh.
Stem Stcmmings.
Quite a number of our people at
tended the State Fair one day last
week.
The public raods through t his sec
tion are a disgrace to any communi
ty and the County Commissioners,
Itoad Supervisors and overseers seem
to be content.
It is reported that quite a number
of our young people, both white and
colored, will soon exchange "single
blessedness" for "double cussedness."
Peace to their ashes.
We cannot recall the year when
tobacco was so nearly all sold at
this time 01 year as it is now. Guess
the tobacco men begin to realize the
situation and prices remain high in
the mean time let's make our sup
plies, cultivate fewer acres in tobacco
and then we can continue to get sat
isfactory prices.
One of the correspondents suggest
that we take up the subject of love
for discussion. We suppose that is a
very interesting subject, yet men and
women in all ages have failed to give
a satisfactory definition of love.
Some one has said that it is "an in
ward inexpressibility, and an out
ward alloverishness", and you know
a thing of that sort is hard to com
prehend. We would like to hear
from some one else as at present we
will remain silent.
LACK LAND.

Our mail is promptly delivered
every day by Terry Callis, who is
very efficient.
Mr. John P. Cannady has been real
sick with malarial fever, but are glad
say is now improving.
Mr. John Oakley, who was seri
ously hurt in Oxford some time ago,
improves very slowly. He was able
to be out doors Sunday for the first
time.
Rev. J. E. Wool filled his regular
appointment at Geneva the ;rd Sun
day. There was a good congrega
tion and his sermon on the "Good
Samaritan" received marked atten
tion by a quiet, orderly congrega
tion. We noticed the conspicuous
absence from the bench of elders of
the venerable John H. Webb and A.
G. Clement, both of whom were sick.
The following parties from Ox
ford attended the services: Messrs.
Joe and Sam Webb and Mayor S. W
Minor, Mesdames T. D. Clement, E.
K. Howard and J. H. Meadows.

Mr. J. S. Coleman visited Kinston
last week on business.
No one could desire prettier weath
er than we are having now.
Madam rumor says that a widow
er will soon claim one of our lovely
maidens.
Quite a number of our young peo
ple took in the State Fair Thursday
and had a grand time.
Mr. Lee Cash, a fine young farmer,
has taken charge of the farm owned
by his aunt, Mrs. M. A. Denney.
Corn shuckings. candy stews and
parties are numerous now and our
young people are having a gay time.
Misses Evie Sherman and Daisy
Fdgleman, of Foster, visited Miss
Zela Coleman last Saturday and Sun
day and some of our young men were
quite happy.
Miss Julia Howard, of Mt. Tirztih,
who was with us last year, has re
turned to the delight of her many
friends and opened the school at Mo-
riah Academy.
The protracted meeting at Bethany
recently conducted by Rev. J. A.

was a success in manyrespects a nd
feel that much good hasbeen.done.

We are pleased to say that there is
no sickness in this community just
now.
The pretty Miss Sue Daniel and
the pleasant Miss Cole, of Satter-
white, were welcome visitors a few
days ago. .
Miss Belle Thorp is at home from
an extended visit to Oxford, Buffalo
Exposition and Washington. She is
an exceedingly pleasant young lady
and her many friends are glad to see
her back.
Mr. Pete Thorp and nephew are
great fox-hunters as well as for deer.
They have caught a number already
this season. One day last week they
killed a 117 pound buck and sent him
to Oxford to sell.
Well, Mr. Editor, we are proud to
say that we are now located at the
well-known village of Oak Hill, and '
much pleased with our new home as
it is a very healthy place and among
the cleverest people in the county.
We find the people pleasant to deal
with and we are enjoying a good '
trade. It is pleasant to dwell among
such good people.
HAMMER. I

Died of consumption Mrs. Ella T.
Franklin, of Granville county, Oct. '
5th, 1901. Sister Franklin had been
a great sufferer for several years, but
bore her afflictions with christian
fortitude. She was about 53 years
of age, and had b -en for many years
a devoted member of the Methodist
Church. Her membership was at
Herbron, a mission chapel ,on Mt
Tirza.li circuit. She was a woman
of strong will force and hnd decided
convictions and defended earnestly
to support the right or condemn the
wrong:. She read well, loved srood
books and read them intelligently,
but she loved the bible best of all and
her greatest grief in the last weeks
of her life was because she was so
wTeak she could not read her bible.
In her maiden womanhood much
of her time was spent in homes of
suffering. She was a good nurse and
as such was much sought after and
highby esteemed where there was af-,
fliction. She took dellarht in minis
tering to suffering ones, and would
frequently go to relieve the sick when
scarcely able to set up herself.
She leaves an only daughter, hut
band, one sister and many friends to
mourn their loss, but "sorrow not as
those who have no hope."
Only a few weeks before her death,
conscious that the end was near, she
gave directions concerning her burial
and said she had no fears of death
was confident that she was saved.
Mentioned the scripture lesson and
the songs she wanted used at her fu
neral. "I go to prepare a place for
you, and if I go and prepare a place
for you I will come again and receive
you unto myself, that where I am
there ye may be also," "Blessed are
the dead which die iu the Lord from
henceforth; yea saith the spirit, that
they may rest from their labors, and
their wrorks do follow them."

IS
WHAT ONE WOMAN THINKS.
The best proof of a man's taste
the kind of wife he picked out.
Love is like china, the finer it
the more readily is it broken.
. A woman never knows how much
she really cares for a man until he is
too sick to work.
It's a wise girl who doesn't think
she is an ansrel just because some
man has told her so.
It takes sometimes but a single
flash from the searchlight of a great
sorrow to lay bare the soul.
There was once a girl, they say,
who kept a secret, but in a fortnight
or two she pined away died.
What the world needs for its pro
gressive development is not broad
mindness so much as brood-hearted-
ness.
J nat critical moment comes in
more than one woman's life when she
stands a silent witness to theslaugh
ter of the one little ewe lamb of her
own happiness.
You don't have to be very pious to
act sweet to the man you love; but
to sit up and look pleasant to the
woman that you can't bear that's
where religion comes in.
We have all met the man with such
exquisitely refined artistic sensibili
ties that he could almost detect a
false note in the trill of a bird or a
tint gone wrong in the colors of a
sunset.
II you meet a girl who looks as
though some secret sorrow were
gnawing at her heart, the chances
are tnere isn t it s probable sue is
engaged to two boys and cannot de
cide which one is in earnest.

"What do you think of her as a
singer?"
"Well I've heard many a bella
donna, but she beats the bunch."
"Why has the mule never become a
racer?"
"Perhaps its because he depends
on his hind feet, while the racer has
to trust to its four feet."
She "Do you think it is safe for me
to out on the lake alone with you?"
He "Why not?"
She "Well, the last time I went

"Why, John," she said in astonish
ment, hearing his language, "I cant

"How should you?" he growled.
"Only yesterday I trimmed a scrub

"It is sad to see this mercenary
spirit so flagrantly manifested in

"Yes," answered Senator Sorghum.
"I have fought against it all I could,
but its no use. I can't get the people

"Say, pa, if ma was captured by
