I Finds Snake in Shoe One da}' last week Mr. John Brannon who lives just south of town, felt something in his shoe and looking saw the tail of a snake sticking out. It is useless to say he got his shoe off double quick and the snake taken out meas ured 2 feet long. The snake had evidently been in the shoe for some little time, as it was mashed and al most dead.. Mr. Brannon says there was no grass grew under his feet, md no bull-dogs interfered with his business while getting the serpent out of his shoe. Master Apple Tree W e thought we had heard every conceiveable story that could iminate from the pen of a Wilkes County editor, but the Patriot comes along with still another, here it is: Messers. J* B. and H. W. Horton discovered an apple tree some days ago, on the Newton Gentry farm in Trap hill township, which they be lieve to be the largest apple tree in the world. The tree, at its base, is 16 feet and 5 in ches in circumference. Kiglit feet above the ground, at the first limbs, the tree is 12 feet and 5 inches in circumference. This would make it, at the base, something over five feet in diameter. At one time the limbs extended for 30 feet on all tsides, but a heav}^ sleet brok them off some years ago and now it has a growth of new and vigorous limbs. Spec ulation can only guess at the age of the tree, though it is known to be more than 100 years old; The tree bears, ev ery year, a large crop of splen didly flavored, good, keeping apples. A single crop has frequently been estimated at near 50 bushels. Pay As You Goo. In one of her newspaper articles, Virginia Harlan ad vises: “Pay as you go.” Good advice. If people would pay as thoy go they would stop going wrong. When they find out they are getting ‘busted’ by going wrong they would begin to economize and and put their money in a savings bank which pays 4 per cent interest compounded every three months.-Wilming ton Star. —A lot of $3.00 to $5.00 solid gold rings, lieavv, wide, only $2.50 ■ to rinse.

Shooting in Wilkes Revenue officers, Holland, Shepherd, Harkins and Grant went to the Basin creek section of Wilkes count}' the latter part of last week to make some arrests. They were making a searcn at the home of Joe Billings when two of Billings’ sous, Relley and Zeke, and Samuel Watson, approached the house and grappled with the officers. In the liiixup Kelley Billings drew a gun and fired at close range at Mr. Harkins. He fired two or, three shots and so close was he that Mr. Harkins Was pow-! der burnt in tlie face, though j fortunately he was not hit by i the balls fired from the gun. Billings was fired on by the | officers and he was seriously shot in the groin. The gun used by the officers being a liigh pressure gun, the ball bored \ts way through the bone without fracturing it. The wound, though serious is not considered necessarily fatal unless complications should set up. The officers called a physician, who gave the injur ed man necessary medical attention. Oil Sunday he was moved to a Mr. Alexander’s where he is under gaurd. As soon as he is able to make the trip he will be taken to Wilk esboro for a hearing before ! United States Commissioner, Railroad May be Sold Raleigh, May 20—The sec ond conference of Governor ' Kitchen and the eouncel of 1 state with the officers of the Elkin & Alleghany Railroad Company and President John A. Mills of the Raleigh and 1 Southport to-day as to the sale of the Elkin Road, resulted in a counter proposition by the councel of state, which neces sitates further investigation as to the possibility of financing the enterprise under the pro posed new conditions. Conse quently Mr. Mills and Mr. H. G. Chatam, president of the Elkin road, will go to New York at once to finally adjust matters to confirm with the new conditions. All are confident that the transfes of the property will be made, assuring the immed iate completion and operation of the road from Elkin to Sparta and Jefferson. Said Mountain Again Bald Mountain in Hender son county is cutting np again, and people in those parts are seriously frightened. The rum blings, and tremblings of the earth have been heard and felt /or many miles around, and it is even reported that smoke has been seen ascending from unknown depths. It has been more than tliiity years—in 1878 according to newspaper reports, that the people of the region round about Bald Moun tain were greatly excited on account of the supposed antics of the mountain. They think a slumbering volcano is doing all this and some of them ex pect eruption that will utterly destroy the entire region at any time. --t » Ladies Must Not Read "pttilj .lOlj 110 pUU|8 OJ pl!l[ 91JSJI ‘a\wi|ouios ji ps jorf p eijs a\ou>j pio.j Apno.ip; svi{ oi[s luooil 8iij p ftuiqpiiij is oj Kjiwo uo) .n>7iisav [^oaa .uox AVOIJS V JO p 111 >| JS1S0[ Ol|J 8|o3 OI[S || v'oipMUos jno II puij p oqs noA’ pi}] a\ou>i oj jou jijrnodip xjuh|jouios s j| UVUIOA\ If S0I.I.IOAI /?llll(JAUI.
