A cloud burst struck the bus lness part of Oxford In the vicinity of the water tower Wednesday after- ternoon about 4 o'clock and flooded the town pond In rear ot Public Led fler office and the boys are afraid all the cats and eels went out on the flood time to the branch.

May the Great Ruler comfort and sustain the grlef-strlcken ones In the trying hour. Started Early. Politics has started up a little early In Granville as the several can didates for Register of Deeds are ac tively feeling the pulse of the ''dear people." As to the Legislature we have heard the names of Mr. A. A. Hicks mentioned for the Senate from Granville and Person and Gen. B. S. Royster for the H ouse from Granville. In case these most worthy gentlemen would consent to run no county in the grand old State of North Caroli na would be more ably and faithfully represented in the Legislature than old Granville. Two Story Hen's Nest. The doctor's have named a new disease among women as "millinery hystera," and we have seen a new style of hat this season that Is liable to bring on the disease. The Balti more Herald describes this hat as fol lows: "The Sprlngstyleof headgear for women Is out. We saw it on the street this morning. It consists of a sort of two-story hen's nest, with an owl's eyebrow on one side, the caudal appendage of a few festooned per slmmonsformlng aplctureeque back ground." . " Nearly 2,000 Rural Routes.

The aggregate of month ly salaries paid In the state to car riers through the Raleigh postoflice Is $64,000. Remarkable Experience Dr. R. P. Floyd called In to see the editor one day this week, and during the conversation Informed us of quite a remarkable experience in his prac tice during the past several months At Mr. Erastus Haewood's he had attended seven cases of typhoid fever, three of the persons taking a relapse, but all have or will recover. Nearly all of them were down at the same time, and Mrs. Hagwood says that even thecatsand hoga took the fever. They too, recovered, but the old lam llv clock must have taken it too, as It refuses to work. Frankllu Tlmee Two Veteran Pencil Pushers. The Durham Sun, ably and bril liantly edited by our old Iriend James A. Robinson, entered upon Its 18th year Tuesday, and It Is a pleasure to us to extend congratulation to the trenlal editor who has done so much to make Durham what it Is today the most progressive-wide-awake City in our great old State. The Sun destryes a far greater patronsge at the hands of the Bull City people than It is receiving on account of its valu able services In many ways. Brother Dolly Thomas.of the Louis burg Times, has grown ball but not gray In pushing the pencil In the great work of building up Loulsburg and Franklin county, and well deserves most liberal patronage at the hands of the good people he has bo faithful ly represented for many years. We say to them, remember the motto of the beloved Vance: "The horse that pulls the plow deserves the fodder,' as he has stood like a stone wall against the enemies of good govern ment in county and State.

News and Observer. Three little rules we all should keop, To make life happy and bright. Smile in the morning, smile at noon. Take Rocky Mountain Tea at night. J. G. Hall. Subscribe to Public imager. SNAP SHOTS. Items of Interest Picked up Here and ' There. A bachelor lawyer Isn't necessarily a failure In court cases. Once and awhile the greatest truth Is told by the biggest liar. Gov. Johnson, of Minnesota, says any man ought to be able to live on $10,000 a year. We are willing to try It for a while. It appears that the senior class at Annapolis has voluntarily abandon ed bjtztng. The Interestlrg thing now Is what will take the place of that practice? Chicago's financiers are asking, "What's the use of haying a. bank If you cannot go to it whenever you wanT to and get money on the hired girl's name?" Declaring that he was Innocent, praying for those who hanged him, and saylng"good-bye," J ohann H ock was executed Friday at Chicago, for wife murder. In-lthe House of Representatives Friday the Tillman resolution to in vestigate the coal and oil Industries as affected by railroads was passed witfeaut opposition. Kansas has a well that shoots up hot air, another that Bends forth great blasts of gas. and a third that throws out mud? Could anything be mnrt characteristic of Kansas?

Former Governor John Gray Evans of South Carolina, says "the chief cauof the unpopularity of the dis pensary will be removed by theenact menfc.of a measure which will abso lutely ,'ellmlnate every chance of graff," By a vote of 8 to 5, the Senate Com m!'re on Inter-State. Commerce, 'reed to report the Hepburn Kan way rate bill without amendment the members of the committee reserv ing the right to offer amendments In he Senate; the usual honor of report- ng the bill was placed upon Senator Tillman. Uncle Bob Lane, a well known col ored man about Goldsboro, boasts of the fact that he Is one hundred and twelve years old, and has the court records to prove his claim. Uncle Bob was bought by Mr. W.K. Lane from Mr. Jernlgan In 1848, and his age was recorded at that time as nity four years. The old darkey Is still en- oylng very good health, and goes about the streets as he pleases. He Is a very polite and industrous. Chief Douglas, of Rhode Island, will visit Raleigh Friday to return the flag borne by Confederate troops and taken at the fall of Fort Monroe in 1S62 by company E, from Rhode Is land. Chief Justice Walter Clark, of North Carolina, will receive the flng from Justice Douglas for the state, and Lieutenant John L. Saunders, the ranking surviving officer of Com pany It, of Beaufort, N. C. will receive It for the Confederate veterans. Senator Tillman's resolution re garding the railroad trusts In West Virginia Is a Btep in the right direc tion, and created quite a stir in the Senate. .The Senator Is rough, rug ged, fearless and honest, and when in action reminds one forcibly or a twenty ton steam hammer at work Senators Bailey and Carmack are equally alert In their efforts to look out for the Interests of the people but follow different lines. Bailey goes after them with a baseball bat, while Carmack takes their hide off with a razor. The effect Is the same. If you dont believe it ask Senator Patterson He knows. Letter to H. H. Eatman, Oxford N. C. Dear sir: Here s something every painter and builder ought to know; Mr J. J. Hall. ShefhYld, Pa, painted two houses, 5 years ago, lead -and -oil took 40 gallons. Last year he painted Devoe; bought 40 gallons; had 10 left. He Is one of thousands. The knowl edge is getting about pretty generally that Devoe goes father than anything else. Have you found it out In your own experience? How much further? Suppose a Job amounts to 10,000 square feet; how much less could you buy? Is it easy to paint? Does it cost any more or less to put-on by the gallon than anything else? how much? If It costs no more to put-on Devoe by thegallon.lt costs less by the foot, you know; for the gallon does more feet. How much less, do you find It, for wages? Lasts, say. twice as long; that is the owner's gain; but perhaps you reckon It yours; some do. The time. when that comes-ln.Is whenhe gives out the next job. Who gets It? Yours truly F. W.

See ing your advertisements I wrote you tor advice. I used Peruna constantly untii last November, when the symp toms disappeared entirely." J. Louis Pfau, Jr. Hon. James Lewis, Surveyor General of Louisiana, says : "I have used Peruna for a short time and can cheerfully recommend it as being all you represent and wish every man wno is suffering with catarrh could know of its great value." James Lewis. Wherever the catarrh is, there is sure to be a waste o mucus. The mucus is as precious as blood. It is blood, in fact. It is blood plasma blood with th cor puscles removed. To stop this waste, you must stop this catarrh. A course of treatment with Peruna never fails to do this. Hon. W, E. Schneider, proprietor of the Baltic Hotel, of Washington, D. C. speaks of Peruna as follows: "I desire to say that I have found Peruna a most wonderful remedy. I have only used one bottle and am thoroughly satisfied as to its merits. I cannot find words to express my gratification for the results obtained." Send for free catarrh book. Address The Peruna Medicine Company, Colum bus. Ohio. BUSINESS GETTERS.
