C., on the V’ilkesboro road. It seems that one, whose name is given as A. B. Burgess, a tenant on the farm of Mr. John Whitaker had some unpleasantness about some supplies with his landloid and sought revenge in a dastardly manner b.v placing Paris Gieeu in the trough where Ins horse and cow feed and from the effects of eating which, both the horse and cow died. Not content with this Burgess also placed the s; me pois on in the spring which was fortun ately discovered by a lady of the family whose suspicions were aroused by the attempt to poison the live stoek- Closer , examina tion revealed a ball of Paris Green carefully wrapped iu cloth, with a rock in the center to make it sink. The cloth in which the poison was wrapped was of the same material as that used to make a dress for the wife (if Bur gess, while another piece looked like the lining of an old coat Bur gess had often been seen wearing. Burgess came from Virginia and is said to have served a term in the peiIiiteuti''vv for homicide. Ad efforts to appvoln ad him imv.? ♦WusTar proven mm vailing. DISASTROUS FIRE ! AT EAST-BEND Two Stores*1>we$lin4 and^other Business wiped out by Flames / Fire Saturday night destr oyed tlie store building and stock of goods ot Davis & Co., the residence of Mr, Bruton ! Davis, the residence of Mrs. J. G. Joyner and the confec tionary store of R. G. Patter son at East Bend. 1 The fire started about 10:45 o’clock in Golden Belt Tabae co Bag agency of which Mr. Zeno Hutchens is manager, but the origin is unknown. Fed by a strong wind the flames spread to* Davis and Company’s store, which was very near, and then caught Mr. Davis’ house. The flames crossed an alley to the Hast Bend Refreshment Co’s store and Mrs. Joyner’s home next caught. Within an hour and a half the buildings were all burned to the ground. It was by strenuous efforts and unceasing work on the part of the large number of volunteer lire fighters and the dense shade along the street that the flames were held on the one side. On the other side of tlie street the houses of Messrs. J. M. Whittington, Jas Smithermur, and Frank lin Williams were in great danger and caught a number of times, but the flames were stopped before they were dam aged to any great extent. The furniture was removed Pom all these buildings. The total damage will prob ably amount to $20,000 *with very little insurance. Mr. Davis was the greatest loser, his stock of goods being worth S10.000 or $12,000 and iusur ed for about one third of its value. All of the other peo ple had some insurance except Mrs. Joyner. Keeper of Donnaha Bridge Fa US Dead Mr. Taylor, au old gentle man, who is toll keeper at tlie bridge over the Yadkin river at Donnaha, clroj pea dead last Thursday about 12 o’clock, while standing in the road be fore the house in which he lives. Mr. Taylor was getting rather old and feeble and it is supposed that his death was caused by heart failure, although very few facts con nected with his death could be learned. He lived in a home built at the end of the biidge au the bank of the river and he was standing before the house when the end came without warning. -*-<• The Wilkesboro Chronicle accuses us of being ‘‘nature fakirs” in connection with our cucumber-squash story of a few weeks ago.

Dunn, near Courtney, has a well develop ed ease of pellagra. The young girl is about 20 years old and has been deaf ^id dumb all her life and it is s.\id her mind is affected to soi\e extent which is a symp tom of the dreadful disease.

Well, they are afloat. It came a bout as a result of a “rumpus” among the stockholders of j the Singing School Co. In the first place the Stock 1 Company Was organized with-1 out the people of Yadkinville i having a chance to j* ^scribe i stock with the exception of a ! few young men who had no; families. The object of the promoters was to get their children through the school \ free of charge and if an3' defie iency occured then all share; alike in making up the neces-j sary funds. j With this object still in view, still keep in. mind they approach none in Yadkinville who had children to send. At; the first meeting of the Stock-1 holders a resolution was pass-: ed allowing children of Stock holders to go free. The good people, after be-' ing slighted in this manner, submitted the Methodist j church to them to hold the j school in, then the}' began to ! talk about the town not fur nishing more students. Next, the}* wanted the Court House! to hold the Concert in, and this \ as granted, then came the worst. Air. S. T. Hin-: shaw, President of the Sing ing School Co., accused the citizens in public, of causing the Normal to be unsuccess ! fill financially. He said Yad 1 kinville contained some of the | worst citizens to be found, j calling them “Low down ; stenciling scoundrels” and : man v other names. 'i his operated as a climax liis and others two weeks abuse and resentment was forth camming from us* Think obit! After being slighted in the first place, then still doing them favors, these ungentle manly remarks came uncalled , for. ! In regard to town taxes, the contention of the town is that it was a scheme for spec ulation, and as for part of the Stockholders it was a scheme for speculation, When this became appear ant to the others, who live here, they imediately exposed the “bunch” and consequent ly the out of town bunch are telling great things about our people which are unjust, as the country people “know that the merchants and all other business men hire treat them well when they come to town ,iu I'm; of pletitv or ip time c»r WE ARE NOW RE0EIVIN 0"i’ spring line of Goods.
