Wilsop to death in the Hamlet Compress fire in 1902 was concluded to day and the argument bv counsel and the charge to the4 jury will take place tomorrow.

AND SCREAM Baby's Awful SufTerinfffrom Eczema -Could Not Hold Her Tow Face and Arms Almost to Pieces Grateful Mother Says, CUTICURA REMEDIES . SAVED HER LIFE" When my littlegiri was six month ,Old, she had eczema. We had used cold creams and all kinds of remedies, but nothing did her any good ; in fact, he kept getting worse. I used to wrap her hands up, and when I would dress her, I bad to put heron the table, for I could not hold her. She would kick and scream, and when she could, he would tear her face and arm almost to pieces. I nsed four boxes of Cuticnra Ointment, two cakes of Cuti cura Soap, and gave her the Cnticura Resolvent, and she was cured, and I ee no traces of the humour left. I can truthfully ay that they have saved her life, and I should advise any one suffering a she did, to give Cuticura a fair trial. Mrs. G. A. Conrad, Lis bon, N. H., Feb. 7, 1898." FIVE YEARS LATER Mrs. Conrad Writes : "It is with pleasure that I can In form you that the cure has been per. manent. It is now six years since she was cured, and there has been no re turn of the disease since. I have ad vised a lot of friends to use Cuticura in all diseases of the skin." Instant relief and refreshing sleer for skin-tortured babies; and rest for tired, fretted mothers, in warm bath with Cuticura Soap and gentle anoint ing with Cuticura Ointment, the great skin cure.

There were two interestintr liauor cases m the police court yesterday. In teresting because it indicates the futili ty of superficial temperance legislation such as we are suffering now. These laws have done little to prevent the sale of liquor hut they are encouraging per jury splendidly. The first case called was that of Tom Toler who was arrested for selling whiskey to West Boyd, a negro. The man Boyd and John Moore, another colore! man, told the chief on Saturday all about their purchase of whiskey de scribing the man who sold it to them, they gave all the circumstances of the affair. Toler was arrested and appear ed in court. When Bovd was called on to state who he got the liquor of he said he was unable to tell, and could not identify him as the one who sold him the stuff. The case was dismissed for lack of sufficient evidence. The other case was Miles Askew, a white farmer of .'Pamlico county who was found drunk and down in the rear of John Garretts place. He said he did not know where the Iwhiskey was ob tained as he was treated and he drank it without asking any questions. He told a different story to Chief Saturday but disclaimed all knowledge to the mayor except what he had said in open court. He was taxed the costs of the trial' " . ,.: . ' " v ; William Ball was fined live dollars and costs for disorderly conduct SHORT PASSING EVENTS. Truckers in the strawberry belt are bothered by a shortage refrigerator cars in which to transport their goods.

C. shops made a request for an advance in their wages. The company granted the request and there was very little controversy over the matter. There was no endeavor to create any excite ment. It is stated that the increase is from $2.50 to $2.80 per day. Among the cases tried before Justice S. R. Street'e court yesterday, wer two white school boys, charged with an affray. They were fined $2 and costs. Two young negro men were up also for the same offense. They were each fined $2 and costs.
