O HalL IMMENSE SALE OF TOBACCO. 480,000 Pounds of Tobacco Sold in Oxford Last week, 160,000 of Which was on Friday. There were the largest breaks of tobacco in Oxford last week than for several years and sold at highest av eraged prices, and instead of falling off advanced some at end of the week as several farmers Informed us. Upon the whole ;here were few "kicks" during the big week, which proves tnat Oxford is the Test all round market in this territory or the State for that matter. The sales commenced Monday and the weed rolled In every day and the town was full of the honorable tillers of the soli. Up to Saturday afternoon 480, 000 pounds had been sold on the mar ket, but Friday was the chamrlon day of the week with our splendid warehouses as I60.OOO pounds was sold that day. These big sales represented a large amount of money paid out by our splendid banks, First National and Bank of Granville, and distributed among the tobacco farmers of this and adjoining counties. Our warehousemen and liberal set of buyers generally are doing what they can to satisfy the farmers who bring the weed here and the fact that people living from 25 to 30 mtles from Oxford are selling on this mar speaks more for the market tban any thing we might say.

Death of a Little Girl. Died at the home of her grandpa, W. T. Allen, on September 12th 1905. little Tempe Terry, daughter of J. H. and Nannie Allen Terry, she was ust two and a half years old, but she had so endeared herself to the household by her brightness, polite ness and loveliness that she was al most Idolized by all who knew her. She was burled In the family eemetiry by Rev. J E. Wool In the presence of a large number of friends. While we do so deeply sympathise with the parents In their sorrow in losing their only child we can say "Itis well with the child." Thieves Enter Home of Mr. J. C. Davis. Some time during Monday after noon thieves entered the home of Mr. J. C. Davis, near town, and stole a great deal of clothing, jewelry, mon ey and many small articles. It seems that they left the house without be ng detected. Mr. and Mrs. Davis and son left home about 11 o'clock and come to town to see the circus parade and did not return home until late n the afternoon and found every thing scattered over the floor drawers ransacked, c;;thlBg, money and jew elry mlpslng. It seems that the thieves needed bags to put the things In and emptied some wheat stored In the bouse on the floor. Up to this wrltlDg no clue has been discovered as to who the thieves were, but It is to be hoped that they will be discovered. Jumped out of Window and Broke His Leg. Policeman Smith Monday morning saw several negro men go up stairs In one of the buildings on Wall street and come to the conclusion that a game of crap was on. After watting awhile he slipped up the stairway and heard what was going on In the room. As he entered the room three of the boys lit out of the window to the street below, while he captured the fourth one. When he got down stairs he found that one of the boys. Baldy Davis, had broken his leg as struck the ground, and with assist ance took him to the guard house, and from there to his home where one of our excellent doctors set his leg. It was a costly game for Davis, as he was badly bruised up beside, breaking one of his legs. We learn he is doing well, and will be well enough by court to stand trial for indulging In a game of crap. Letter to Long, Blalock & Haskins. Oxford, N. C Dear Sirs: Clothing Is just like paint.

Investigating Illegal Whiskey Traffic. Complalut being made frequently by citizens of Creedmoor section that whiskey is being made and sold the authorities began an investigation, which resulted In biding over to the next term of court several persons.
