One of our subscribers informs us that five of his neighbors read his copy of the paper every wreek, sending for it sometimes before he has a chauce to read it. If this is not unadultered cheek we do not known what else to call it it beats that of the noted government mule. Made Him Drop the Chickens. Last Thursday night a thief eu tered the pantry of Mr. Li. T. Smith, which on the end of his back porch, and stole a lot of provisions.

Mr. Smith heard him this time and jumped up out of the bed and ran out in the back yard, and was so close behind the thief that he dropped the hens and escaped. The Place to Buy Your Holiday Goods.

He was in charge of the Greensboro circuit and among the oldest ministers in the Methodist Conference. He was a brother of Mr. James H. Webb, of Stem, and a Chaplain in the Confed erate army. Verily a most faithful wTorker in the vineyard of the Lord has passed "Beyond the smiling and the weeping" and joined the "Ever lasting throng in singing praises to the Almighty Father." Remember the Orphans Today. We all love to honor him who was the first great advocate of the or phan cause in North Carolina and one who, for so many years, gave his heart and life in its behalf. We can- not better perpetuate his name than by cherishing that cause for which he lived. The orphanages of the State have increased in numbers within tne j past lew jfttin aiiu cauu uuc 10 ti j 111 to receive more children than in the preceeding year Can we better show our gratitude to God for His many mercies to us than by a liberal dona nation to these, His little ones, on Thanksgiving Day ?

The editor i glad to say that he was in error in stating that his es teemed friend, Mr. Walter S trad ley, had decided to locate in Oklahoma City, and hope he will return to his native town and make it his home and devote his fine talent to upbuild ing of Oxford.

The noted and unfortuate and now famous Gattis-Kilgo suit set for re trial this term of the Court by a de cision of the Supreme Court came up last Thursday, but by agreement of counsel it was postponed until Mon day morning at ll:d0 when It came up'for trial before the able and fear less Judge Shaw. The plaintiff asked that trial be postponed until next term of court as one of the principal witnesses (Mr. Umstead) could not attend, but defendants objected, and finally agreed to admit all the evi dence given by witness Umstead at the former trial, which the plaintiff agreed to and the trial commenced. The following jurors after a few hours wrere chosen to try the case: Herbert Gregory, Erastus Mitchell, William Daniel, J. W. Strother, R. S. Royster, William. ft, Currin, R. M. Riggan. J. R. Renn, Forest Ham me, J . D Williams, Robt D. Royster, and M. D. Crews. Out of the jurors called and rejected 11 expressed them selves in favor of Mr Gattis and four for Kilgo. The jury is composed of 5 Methodists. 4 Baptists and 3 Epis copalians. With the exception of Mr. R. D. Royster, who is one of Oxford's clever merchants, all the jurors are farmers. There are not so many witnesses and visitor In attendance as at the former trial. The attorneys for the plaintiff who are present are, Maj. Wm. A. Guthrie, Judge A. W. Gra ham, Mr. J. Crawford Biggs, Mr. A. A. Hicks and S. M. Gattis. The at torneys for the defendants present are. Judge R. W. Winston, Gen. B- S. Roj'ster, Messrs. F. L. Fuller and T. T. Hicks. Messrs. Cyrus Watson, Gov. Aj-cock, R. O. Burton, and Messrs. Montgomery.and Boone, who were attorneys in the former trial are not here Dr. Kilgo was here Monday, but has left. Mr. Odell and Mr. Duke are both absent. The trial will probably consume about all the week, as it seems to be progressing very slowly. The exam ination of plaintiff Gattis had not been concluded up to Tuesday night. Judge Shaw is presiding with his usual dignity and ability. We believe his rulings in this case are generally commended. DEPUTY SHERIFF BLACKLEY GUILTY. Fined $500 and Cost for Allowing T. S. Rogers to Escape and Removed from Office. The trial on last Friday of Mr. F. M. Blackley, constable from Brass field township, charged with permit ting the escape of Thomas S. Rogers, who was charged with the rape of Miss Myrtle Harris on August 9th, resulted in his conviction. The judg ment of the court was that the de fendant Blackley be fined $300 and be discharged frcm him omee. The evidence against Blackley was very conclusive. The evidence showed that Blackley was ordered by the magistrate's Court to commit Rogers to jail, but instead of doing this he took him into the woods in an oppo site direction, where Rogers' friends soon appeared and rescued him. The evidence to the Court was clear that he connived at and consented to his escape, allowing the prisoner while in his custody to retain a pistol on his person. His Honor ruled that Blackley 's own evidence, if true, con victed him and instructed the jury if they believed him to return a verdict of guilty, which they did in ten min utes after retiring. The result of this trial should be a forcible waknlng to other offi cers of the law and should teach a lesson which some officers all over the country much need. The oath which an officer of the law takes is a very solemn oath, and his trust is a very solemn one. For an officer to aid or connive at theescapeof a pris oner, or negligently allow him to es cape is a very grave crime. Certain ly the judgment of the Court was a just one. Personally we have no criticism to make of Mr. Blackley. We know him and like him, and his father, who is numbered among the best men in the county, is a special friend of ours, and we are sorry of the unfortunate occurrence which happened But as we have said it should be a warning to other officers. The sa cred mandates of the law must be revered and enforced at all costs re gardless of personal feelings. The at tempt of the legislative department ot our government to enact wise law and of the judiciary to contrue them is of no avail if the executive arm of the government is to be weakened by incompetent or unreliable officers Without their -aid the other depart ments of the government are power less. Since Mr. Blackley has gotten into this trouble we take it he will have the financial aid of his friends. We suppose that since he has sacrificed all for them they will stand by him In this particular, however, we ex- press no opinion in the matter. Lecture of the Gifted Henry Blount. A fairly good house greeted the gifted Colonel Henry Blount at his double lecture, "Rip Van Winkle and Solon Shingle," at the Opera House last Friday evening. Colonel Blount spoke for over two hours and a half. The entire audience were charmed with the lecture and were often con vulsed wfth laughter. As a mimic and impersonator Colonel Blount is among the best we have ever heard. or vivid imagery, fine retorical flights, gorgeous descriptions, and eloquent outburts of oratory his On him Mer- equal is nam to nnu curv seems to nave uestowea ner nest gifts. At one moment his audience is moved almost to tears with his deep strains of pathos; at other they are convulsed with laughter. Few. lec turers possesses in a greater degree the dual power of both amusing and moving the feelings of their hearers. The lecture was in every way a signal success. We hope Col. Blount may come to Oxford again. It was a great pleasure to the editor to meet him while in Oxford.

Since our last Issue court proceed ings have continued uninterruptedly. A great many criminal cases ha ve been disposed of, none of them, how ever, being of very special importance with the exception of the Blackley case. Granville county owes Judge Shaw a debtof gratitude for his work in bringing criminals to justice. If he could come to our county several times more it would be of great ben efit to the county and would rid the county of so much criminality. If all the Judges were as careful as he in this respect, there would be fewer criminals in our county. Solicitor Brooks Is also an enemv to evil doers. In him Judge Shaw has had an excellent help-mate in bringing to justice violators of the law. Few districts can boast of so good a Solicitor as Mr. Brooks. He knows neither friend nor foe, nor is he influenced by fear or favor in dis charge of his professional duties. The following is the disposition of the criminal cases on docket this ses sion: State vs. John Allen, enticing ser vant, guilty; fined $25 and cost. State vs B. Vandergrif, enticing hand; not guilty. State vs Lafayette Cash, retailing liquor without license, plead guilty; fined $ 57.50 and cost. State vs S. C. Lyon, failure to re turn capital stock, plead guilty; judgement suspended on payment of cost. State vs John Taylor, a. w. d. w. guilty, judgment suspended on pay ment of cost $38.75. State vs. Frank Maddra, a. w. d. w. plead guilty; fined $40 and cost. State vs Archer Sneed, larceny, guilty; judgment suspended on pay ment of cost. If cost not paid goes to the road. State vs Wm. Roberson, larceny, guilty; 6 months on roads in Durham county. State vs Hughly Cozart and Alex Stovall, a. w. d. w. guilty; as to Stovall judgment suspended. State vs Martha Lassiter laceny guilty, judgement suspended. State vs Theodore Parker, a. w d. w. submits, fined $20 and cost.

Moral Obligation to Observe It. Today is Thanksgiving and it is well for us to remember that we have a moral obligation to perform. Of late years the day has been turned into one of ordinary feasting, with no other meaning than that of joy and merriment. To a certain limit that is right, but it will be well for the people of this country to follow the lead of the churches in organizing special services and encourage them by your attend ance u pon t he services. The setting aside of one day out of the year as a time for the giving of thanks for special mercies granted by the Creator is an example set the na tions by the youngest of them all. The Editor Kindly Remembered. We take this method of expressing our thanks to some of our leading warehousemen, who being friends to the editor, and feeling appreciative of his efforts to build up Oxford to bacco market (as well as every other interest wrhich pertains to Oxford's welfare) have seen fit to give sub stantial expression to the same by sending us a large, fat turkey for 1 hanksgiving. Such an expression is always better than simply kind thoughts about the editor while the friend is sleeping in his bed-chamber; indeed it is even better than empty words spoken to the editor which are agreeable, but "not with-standing they give not the things needful to the body." "Be thou warmed and filled"can never meet the actual needs of human life; and the editor still claims to be human. We especially appreciate this be cause our friends do not so often re member us as formerly. They seem to have imagined that this custom has gone out of style. We would re mind them that this kind of "ware" is staple and never out of style. The Children's Friend. You'll have a cold this winter. Maybe you have one now. Your children wdl suffer too.
