A number of Pitt county attorneys spent yesterday in the city presenting to Judge Fousbee a petition from n number of citizen of their county that a cattle fence law now in force should be abolished. They returned home last night, A report from Pamlico county yes terday stated that there were several cases of smallpox in a section of that county. The authorities there have taken every precaution to prevent the disease from spreading and there is but little probability that it will result in an epidemic. Rain fell all over this section of the State yesterday and the majority of the snow which still remained on the ground from the downfall last Saturday night, was washed away. However, the rain failed to improve the condition of the coun'y roads and traveling over them is about as bad as it was during the first part of the week. Only fourty-four days remains before Easter and already the local millinery establishments have begun to make preperations for this event Each day they are receiving their stock of spring goods from the northern markets and are arranging for their openings which will be held within the next few week". It will be of interest to the husbands of the ladies . to know -thatf the fash ion this season will be for small hats and that the price will be very mod erate. , To get clear conception of just how many unemployed negroes there are in New Bern, one hat only to visit the court house during a term of criminal court. Monday afternoon . the writer counted more than three hundred neg roes standing and sitting in the court room. There is little wonder that there is so much lawlessness going on. These negroes must have something to eat and wear and when they have no income there is but one conclusion left, they must either beg or steal it The Craven County Farmers' Union held its regular monthly session in this city yesterday. The weather was ideal and a large number of the members 'were present This Union is greatly aiding the farmers of Craven county. Late yesterday afternoon the saw filer's room of the J. B. Blades' mill at Bridgeton was almost totally destroyed by fire. But for the fact that the crew of the revenue cutter "Pamlico" ren dered valuable assistance the place would have doubtless been destroyed. As it was the filer's room was gutted by the flames, The hookworm dispensary which was open in this city yesterday was visited by a number of citizens who had read much of this work and who were anx ious to investigate the methods em ployed. Dr. Strosnider and his assist ant fully explained every phase of the work to them. Quite a number of new patients were also given treatment du ring the day. Several of the boys of the graded school are attempting to secure enough money through regular subscription to erect a monument in this city to Baron DeGraffenreid, the founder of Ne Bern. About $75 has already been se cured. However, this is far from be ing a sufficient amount and th y are requesting your aid, Mr. S. M. Brin son is acting as treasurer for the fund. The monument will be erected in some public place in the city. SATUEDAT. Col P. M. Pearsall will leave today for New Orleans, La., where he wil at tend the Mardi Gras. After leaving that p'ace he wili go to Hoston, Texas, where he willsiend several days attend ing to some proftjssi ral buaine s. New Bern will be well represented at the Mardi Gras. Already a number of her citizens have departed for that place and other j wili leave within the next day or two. - 1 - While engaged in operating one of the machines at that plant yesterday Mr. Robert Snellinga, one of the em p'oyes of the New Bern Iron Works, had the misfortune to get hi ; hand caught in the machine and it was badly mangled. A physician was called and rendered medical aid to the young man. His injuries are of such a nature that it is not probable that he will be able to use his hand again for several weeks Next Tuesday the appeal of Burrill and Leona Casey, sentenced to 10 years imprisonment at the October term of Ctaven county Superior Court for I Doisoninir Mr. Joseph Whitty, Leona Casey's former husband, will be heard before; the 8upreme Court . The ap- Deat of Hugh N. Pace, sentenced to 6 years ih the pennitanliary far seducing under promise of marriage Miss Hen rietta Paughterv, will also bo heard at that time. , During the past week or two the re venue officers in; this section of ' the State seem to have ceased their vigil ance against the retailers and distillers. For a wiille these offenders were brought to this city for trial that the commis sioner had little time for anything else There are six Federal prisoners now in the county jail awaiting trial and as the capacity of the county boarding house islimited.it would doubtless bo well for the revenue men to wait until just before court before they bring In an other bunch. i Geo. 1L. "Wooten, One of Jurors On Bryan Murder Case, Tanks tTpT ; On Mean Liquor and v ' Meets His Water-" . ' " . - loo. With his face badly beaten up and his clothes in tstters, George M. Wo- otten of Fort Barnwell one of the twe've men who comprised the jury in the Ba ker Bryan murder trial and who brought in a verdict of "not gulty" which was termed by the Solicitor as one of the grossest miscarriages of Justice ever perpetrated in North ' Carolina," was found in the northern part of the city ', early Sunday morning in a thoroughly Intoxicated conditions, In fact he , was so drunk that it was almost imosiible for him to stand lone. " - V. Immediately after be'ng rekasr d from the jury, Wooten evident proceeded ta celebrate the occasion by filling up on a quantity of the "blind tiger" whis key, which can be Secured to essily in New Bern. At several of the places he visited he became such a nuisance that he was told to move on. ; Finally re at tempted to thrash a young man whom he met and in turn was severely beaten. A warrant was sworn out charging him wi h being disorderly within the city limits snd he was cited to appear before the mayor yesterday afternoon. However, as had been prophesied, h failed to show up at the appointed hour and the case was dismissed. . T Adjutant General F, C. Ainsworlb, who was dismissed from his positi n, was yesterday placed on the retired list on his own appl cation, which makes ti e pre posed court martial unnecessary and quashes the charges against him. Opening the' Senatorial carrpaign, Governor "Kitchen, speaking to the Kit chen Democrat Club in Raleigh strong lj arraigned the record of the senior Sen ator frcm North Carolina, invited him to a public discussion of the issues, if desired. ,': ; ' . -" : The Senate Committee on inter-State Commerce was yesterday askrd to push legislation making the railroads re sponsible for bills of lading state ments.

Feb. 22nd, Washington's birthday being a legal holiday there wil be no business transacted by the banks of the city. Owing to the fact that there has been a delay in securing the papers in the ease. It is not' probable that the ap peal in the Casey murder ease will be argued before the Supreme Court this week as had been planned. Iff. W.D. Mclveo the defendant a' lawyer will go to Raleigh today and state the fact of the case to the .court Local theatre goers are awaiting with interest the presentation la this eity on March 11th of the "Lion and the Mouse, ' the play which has created a sensation all over the United State. This season an entire new east will handle the different parts and the scene for the production cost more than 5, 000., Remember the date, March 11th Judging from the large number of esses of idruoknesa in police court in this city, there is not the least d mbt but that whiskey ; can be purchased without the least trouble In New Bern. When ode man receives thirty or forty cases of whiskey each month and then d spenses it out to the bootlegger with out interference, it can easily be seen why sucH a condition exiata, Captaih and Mrs. Way who have bad charge of the local branch of the Sal vation Afmy for the peat few months will leave New Bern within a few days for sometother city.

Whereas, the recommendation of the commission on efficiency and economy to dispense with the revenue cutter ser vice, if adopted, would mean a serious blow to the shipping interests of the country and appears to be prompted by other interests which are inimical to the protection of American shipping; Whereas, the remnant of the once fa mous American ships .and crews need all the protection that can be accorded to them, and particularly that form of pro ec ion guaranteed by the Revenue Cutter service, .and are as, such .enti tled to it as other interest , on shore which are protected by the police, fire departments etc!' and the mailt me interest, of North Carolina need this protection on its dangerous coast, and Whereas, the Revenue Cutter ser vice as now opperated gives efficiency and confidence to the shipping interest dealing along cur coast and adds digni ty and prestige to our country, and-. -Whereas, the commission oa econo my an J efficiency hope to make a sav ing of $1,000,000 a year by the aboli tion of the Revenue Cutter service (which amount is insigoificent when compared with the Value of property and life saved by one cutter during an tqual period), be it'.rs.-p 'tV.vv Resolved, That the Chamber of Com merce of New Bern, N, .
