Corporal punishment was inflict ed upon a man, by two women, up In Sugar Loaf, some days ago, for the purpose of teaching him that It was not right and proper to get on too much moonshine and make the night hldeoue with his vulgar and profane langnge.

That was a wise act in the Com missioners in closing the Dispensary Saturday, which was greatly appre ciated by the people generally and In consequence we did not see a single person under the influence of whis key.

Provision will be made for fifty free tuition students with board in private fami lies and twenty-live tuition-paying students with board In private ram tiles. Horner School Highly Endorsed. We have received the 54th annual catalogue of the old reliable Horner Military School. It is nicely gotten un and handsomely illustrated and full of valuable information as to the conduct of this widely known Insti tution of learning. We also find in the catalogue leaflets containing Uo recommendations from patrons who speak in the highest terms of tlie school. Hon. Alfred addell, of Wil mington, in speaking of the school says: I apprehend that there is not a well informed man In North Carolina who does not recognize the Horner Military School as one or the veiy best institutions in the State and iu the South. Its reputation has been established for many years, and is steadilv maintained. There is no school in the country that offers greater advantages for a sound phys ical, mental and moral development nf vonth.and I cordially commeuu it as "such to parents who have boys to educate.

J LONG BROS. ST. JOHN'S DAY CELEBRATION. Between 6,000 and 8,000 People in At tendance. The celebration of St. John's Day Is always an event of peculiar Interest to the people both In Granville and and all over the State. The celebra tion this year was held on the 25th Instead of the 24th. Early Saturday morning vasts throngs came pouring In and by 12 o'clock from (,000 to 8,000 people thronged the streets and the Asylum grounds. More than 1500 came In on the morning trains, the Seaboard excursion from Raleigh bringing a happy crowd of about 1,000. Though a little warm the day was almost an Ideal one for the oc casion. Large crowds of young people fine looking young men and beauti ful and well dressed young women were on the grounds and seemed to be having a fine time. We heard several remarks on the fine personel of the crowd, and we hard y remember to have seen before such a good looking, sober, courteous and well behaved gathering as this. After the exercises of the Lodge were over the Masons together with the children marched in order to the large stand in grove prepared for the occasion. Gen. B. S. Royster was master of ceremonies and announced the program and introduced the speakers. Mr. W. H. Harrison, of Ox ford bar, delivered the address of Welcome, which was in part as fol lows: "It Is my pleasure, in behalf of this noble and time-honored Institution and in behalf of Oxford Lodge and the town of Oxford to extend to the hosts here assembled a cordial wel come to this the annual celebration of St. John's Day, and yet to many here assembled, no words of welcome are necessary, for they are among their own. They are here to partici pate in the exercises of their own be loved Institution an institution founded by their mutual labor, love and care. Masonry is the oldest of the fra ternal orders. But "the hoary head is a crown of glory" only "when found in the way of righteousness." So that Its record of service to the world Is Its greatest monument. For many centuries this order has blessed the world with Its ministrations of love. It has sought not to govern the world, but to bless the world to protect the wesk, cheer the friendless and to extend to the fatherless and widow the hand of charity. Had masonry done nothing else except establish this grand and beneficlent Institution, that act alone would entitle the order to the gratitude of the world. Since its establishment It has shed a halo of light and love all over North Carolina and beyond Its borders. From its doors have gone out thousands of boys and girls who have adorned the various walks of life and of whom this institution Is proud. They have left these por taLfflV.JS'ctheatJihjjp pie of masonry and the central truth of the christian religion ' love to God and love to man." The celebration of St. John's Day is a beautiful custom. We cast aside the cares of a busy life and meet here to mingle together in social concourf e to talk of the record of this Institu tion, and to honor and reverse the memory of those who founded It. Again I bid you one and all wel come. The doors oi tnis institution and of the town Oxford are thrown wide open to vou. Come in and take possession." The address of welcome was responded to in a most nappy manner bv Mai. Jno. W. Cotton, of Tarboro. The principal address of the day was delivered by Prof. J. B. Carlyle, of Wake Forest College. Prof. Carlyle sooke for about 40 minutes and charmed his audience. We regret be ing unable to procure his speech for oubltcatlon. for it was one of the best addresses delivered herelnyears His subject was "Masonry" and he handled it In a manner worthy of the theme and the speaker. The sweet voiced children rendered beautiful songs, which were greatly enioved bv the vast throng of people Everything was on the ground for the comfort and convenience of the people. Barbecue and other things to eat were served. There was also plenty of lemonade. Ice cream and Ice water. We learn that about $800 was made from the sale of barbecue, ice cream, etc. Dinner was served in the officer's dining room to a number of the masons and other invited euests. We note with creat pleasure the present splendid condition of the Ox ford Orphan Asylum. Under the wise and efficient management of that grand and lovable man, Col. W. J I I 5cks, the noble institution continues to prosper. He Is surrounded by verv efficient corps of assistants lu every department who are faithful in the discharge of every duty I in provements, both material and in the children and In the school are to be seen on every hand. May Col. Hicks be spared many years to give to this great and noble Institution his wise counsel and able direction.

Mclarland, S. W. Cooper and others returned b riday night from the State convention at Greensboro. Why Did Mr. Glenn Receive the Nomina tion ? The answer Is plain. Because dur ing the past twelve years or more he has left his office and devoted several months In every campaign year, he has preached In power and effective ness the doctrines of Democracy. In every county where he has helped to win votes and increase the enthusi asm of Democrats, many of the pec ple were his staunch supporter-. They remember Mr. Glenn Is person ally known to his stirring appeals, his graphic portrayal of Republican misrule, his terrible excoriation of the men who despoiled North Caro lina. "The country people have long memories and so do many town people. In Robeson, where Mr. Glenn had spoken often In the days of political thralldom, the people were enthusiastic for his nomination. From Cleveland to Currituck, except in counties where the other candi dates were well known or had Influ ential friends, the bulk of the Demo cratic masses rallied to Bob Glenn's standard bearers, as they put It. "The horse that pulls the plow ought to have the rodder." Gratitude for party service alone would not have Riven Mr. Glenn the nomination. That was the chief claim he had upon the people who knew him only as a most effective campaigner, but they would not have given ulin the nomination un less they had believed that he had the ability to make a worthy Chief Magistrate, was devoted to the up Dunaing oi tne tstate, and would en ter the office with obligations only to the whole people. Believing these things, the majority of the Demo crats have nominated Mr. Glenn for Governor, and today every Demo crat In the State Is loyally support lng this warm-hearted, patriotic, lib erty-lovlng North Carolinian. Heretofore he has gone before the people to 6peak for other standard bearers and for Democratic princi ples. He will this year go before the people seeking their support to the great office for which he has been named him wrote the pledges which It makes to the people. If they elect Mr. Glenn and keep the affairs of North Carolina in Democratic hands every pledge In that platform will be fulfilled to the letter. It Is the sail ing chart for Mr. Glenn and every other Democratic nominee. Upon every plank and declaration they will stand and their voices will be raised all over the State In support of that platform. In Mr. Glenn, as the head of the ticket, the Democracy have chosen a man able to defend It against all c jmers. News and Ob server.
