If people would manage to have some chickens to sell along at this time of the year, they would get fancy prices for them. Frying size chickens would go like hot cakes in Oxford now. At Aurora, Beaufort county, the other day two children of Richard Sparrow, aged seven and four years, were playing In a log yard at a mill when the logs rolled on them, killing the youngest child and severely If not fatally injuring the other. Mr. and Mrs. Ed Hicks, of New York City, arrived at their pretty country home near town a few days ago, after spending some time at Pinehurst for the benefit of Mr. Hicks who is recovering from a severe at tack of typhoid fever. We hope he will continue to improve and will be himself again. The usual fight on the Southern fast mail appropriation, brought up while the postofnee appropriation bill was under consideration, result ed in the appropriation going through by a vote of SS to 80. Of the North Carolina members Kluttz and Gudger voted for the appropriation, the two Kltchlns, Page, Webb and Thomas against It. Pou, Small and Patterson were not present. Mr. John Paris has a message to our readers in another part of this paper to which we call their atten tion. His stock of spring goods have arrived which is attractive, and you are most cordially invited to call and see them and supply j-our spring and summer wants at the lowest possible prices. If you are a. lover of music be sure aDd take a guess at the number of eylets in the jar in the window as the fortunate guesser will be award ed a handsome music box. Oxford has numerous colored loafers of the male kind who are never known to strike a lies of work ana who are supported by "cat hole grub," at the direct expense of the white housekeepers of Oxford. We heard a colored "Buck" say a few days ago that he was "living 10 days to the week as his woman had stop ped working in tobacco and was now cooking out." And yet the Northern w riters and orators pretend to understand this burden of the South. Our market Is abundantly sup plied with fine shad dally and the "Scaly Trust" allows no cutting of prices this season, hence It is useless to go from one dealer to another to see if you can get them cheaper. You will meet with the same tate as to fresh meats as the Beef Trust Is of long standing. Rev. Sam Slaughter is at the head of both these combina tions but still insists that he is as poor as a church mouse. But-nevertheless he is the healthiest looking colored man In town and wears a broad smile on his face daily.

In flood-swept Indiana and part of Michigan the loss has been great. In Indiana the loss is estimated at $S,000,000. In Indianapolis 1,200 fam ilies were driven from their homes.

The news of the racial troubles in Arkansas county, in the State of Arkansas, is distressing and dis couraging to the friends of law and order.

A criminal term of Person Su perior Court will be heid next week with two capital cases, those of William Adams, colored, who mur dered a negro woman and her child and tried to kill another child, the evidence against him being very clear, the other cage being that of George McNeill, colored, for a horrible felon ious assault upon a colored married woman. The News and Observer in its splendid write up of Richmond and of the North Carolina colony says: Major A. S. Lanier, formerly of Ox ford, is one of the most prominent young attorneys in Virginia.

We congratulate him upon the promotion he has received. A freight train on the Durham & Northern Railroad went through the high trestle near Henderson Tuesday piling a large number of cars on top of each other. The engine had got ten across when the trestle ga ve way. We are glad to learn that no one was killed or seriously injured The Oxford train had to go on through to Durham Tuesday -as passengers and baggage was transferred at the trestle. The accident was caused by the breaking of a wheel. The editor deeply regrets to learn of the death of Dr. W. E. Grlfiith.son of Rev. J. R. Griffith, at his home at Amelia Court House, Va., which oc curred March 17th. Dr. Griffith was partly raised in Oxford and learned the drug business here. He was a progressive citizen of his county and was the Chairman of Democratic Executive Committt e.Superintendent of Public Instruction and a leading druggist, and will be greatly missed by his people. To his devoted father and other members of his family we extend our condolence in the hour of deep sorrow. Capt. Glenn a Candidate. In another column appear resolu tions from the Executive Committee of Forsythe county signed by the chairman, endorsing the candidacy of Capt. R. B. Glenn for Governor and calling upon the Democracy of the State to support him. Capt. Glenn will no doubt make a strong run. He is a man of force and an orator of power and has done good worK for the party to which he belongs. In the coming State Con vention he will have to be reckoned with among the candidates. The claims presented by his friends for him are worthy of consideration. More Riots. Disturbances of strikers are not nearly as grave as an individul disorder of the sys tem.

ARRAY OF BEAUTIFUL PRODUCTIONS The Bewitching Art of Making Keadwear for Women, Friday was a lovely spring day and the streets were thronged with the ladies from both town and coun try who were attracted by the milli nery openings. The stores were Ba zaars of Fashion and beauty, and an exquisite display of up-to-date mlill nerv greeted and charmed them. The editor visited the different arrayed departments which were charming to the eye, but paralyzing to the pocket book. The styles, materials and shapes make an interesting study for those feminine minds who have to solve the problem of what to get to wear. At Long Bros, the popular Miss Wellman displayed an elaborate ar ray or pretty crea tions of rare beauty which caught and charmed the eye and won the admiration of the ladies, who could not help buying beautiful Easter hats which add so much to their good looks. Tlw millinery department of Lan dis & Easton, the oldest in Oxford, was another very attractive place and was thronged with the fair ones, and Mis? Willis, the new milliner, was highly pleased with the compli ments of a high order regarding her attractive display, and her sales were numerous. At Miss Mary BHe Gregory's there was another exquisite display of hats for all feminine wearers and all femi nine fancies, from the simplest affair for a child to the most elaborate pro duction for the proudest bride, and were greatly admired which resulted In many sales being made. The new Millinery Parlor of Miss Bettie Smith was another centre of attraction for the ladies. Her open ing was gratifying from Deglnnlng to end, and the popularity of this new place was attested by the large number who attended the opening and enjoyed the display as well as made purchases, as Miss Smith and her attractive milliner, Miss Har wood, know so well how to cater to the wants of the ladles. All did well and the millinery de partments and stores of Oxford are well up with those of much larger places in display and originality. No Easter Exercises. Owing to smallpox in the com mu nity the Easter Exercises at Banks Chapel has been called off. Miss Peajil, Floyd, Miss May Turner, E. T. Huskkth, E. MlTCHEI-V- Committee. A Sermon to the Granville Grays. Rev. John E. Wool, the much be loved pastor of the Presbyterian church, and chaplain of. the Granyllle Grays, preached a special sermon to them on Sunday morning last, the officers and men, together with the Adjutant General and other officers of the State Guard, attending in a body. We are Informed that the ser mon delivered by Mr. Wool was a highly appropriate one and was much enjoyed by the company, as well as by others who heard It. Tobacco Selling Higher. The breaks on the Oxford market continue to hold up well and large quantities were sold Friday and Tuesday. The sales were largely at tended and the sellers were much pleased with the high averages. On Friday there were a number of Per son county farmers on the breaks, and among them was Mr. T. B. Reade, of Mt. Tirzah, who pocketed for a large load the following 'shingle knocker" prices at the John son Warehouse: $20, 30, 37, 35, 48, 45, 50, 30, 20, 11 and 12. Farmers will make no mistake by selling the balance of their crop on the Oxford market as they will be certain to reap the cream of the mar ket on all grades, from the common est to the finest. A Sweet Little Girl Gone up Higher. The shadows fall across a happy home In Oxford, and the light of a lovely existence has been shut out forever, and the spirit of a pure, sweet and lovely little girl has gone back to God who gave It. Alice, the 5 year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John H. Bullock, died on Thursday night after two weeks Illness and closed on efirth her beautiful life, and sent the keen arrow of sorrow Into the hearts of the family and friends. She was a beautiful little girl of love ly character and held the admiration of all who knew her to a remarkable degree, and was the pet of the house hold. To the bereaved parents, who now sigh "for the touch of a dear cherub and the sound of a sweet voice that is still," the editor extends his deepest sympathies. But words are so cold "when the heart bleeds in the yalley of death." The funeral took place Friday after noon at 4 o'clock from the home on Broad street conducted by Rev. F. M. Shamburger in a solemn and pa thetic manner, and largely attended by sorrowing relatives and friends. The interment was in Elmwood Cemetery and the floral offerings were profuse and beautiful, completely covering the mound beneath which sweetly sleeps all that is mortal of a precious gem. "The little bed is empty now, The little clothes laid by; A mother's joy, a father's pride, In death's cold arms doth He, I take these little lambs, said He, And fold them to my breast; Protection they shall find In Me, And be forever blest." It Saved His Leg. P. A. Danforth of LaGrange, Ga,, suffered for sis months with a frightful running sore on his leg; but writes that Bucklens Arnica Salve wholly cured it in five days.

The Durham Herald of the 2Gth says: Superior court, which was a two week's term, came to a sudden and unexpected end yesterday. At least Judge Cooke announced that the court would adjourn with the ending of the day but said that he would be In the court room for a short time this morning In order to sign the minute docket and make such orders as the lawyers wanted. The judge has the smallpox scare. Yesterday morning he noticed that one of the jurors, Mr Geo. E. Booth, had some kind of a breaking out on his forehead and began to enquire after his health at once. Mr, Booth said that he was not feeling well and this caused Judge Cooke to order him from the jury and the room. He then announced that the court would come to an end with the ending of the day. In making the announcement of his decision Judge Cooke said that he would come back here immediately after the Granville court In May and hold a week's term to make up for the loss caused by adjourning now. He said that he did not want to take any chances of coming in contact with the disease that Is so much feared. Tragedy Averted. "Justin the nick of time our little boy was saved" writes Mrs. W. Watkins of Pleasant City, Ohio. 'Pneumonia had play ed sad havoc with him and a terrible cough setfin besides. Doctors treated him, but he grew worse every day. At length we Iried Dr. Kings New Discovery for Con sumption, and our darling was saved. He's now sound and well."

Next Sunday closes the Lenten sea son, and the christian world will again commemorate themostsltrnifi- cant of all the world's events the resurrection of Jesus Christ. We should not forget its Import and its meaning. It should not he n. p arm of gaity and festivity or display but one of joyous thanksgiving and wor ship. To the christian It means much Indeed it means all: for nnnn the resurrection of Christ Is based our only hope of life hereafter; for If Christ was not raised then Is onr preaching and our faith vain. Easter will be celebrated in Oxford with appropriate services. At St. Stephens church the services will be conducted by the able Rector, Rev. Geo. M.
