Another Thief Caught.
Money to the amount of (55 was stolen
Saturday morning last from the drawer of
freight office at the depot. John Hopkins,
a negro boy of about is years of age being.
6usicioned was arrested by Chief-of-Police
JJowdy. Uf the amount 97.7o waa found
upon his person, while $15 had been depos
ited by him in the First National Bank.
Hopkins claims that his "partner" got the
additional amount, aqd has given tha police
various descriptions ot tbe one who aided
him in the theft, but when the descriptive
parties were brought before him, he would
deny their being the proper person. Hop
kins is destined to shovel . dirt on some
railroad for the offence, which was no doubt
done by himself alone. In default of a $100
bond, he is peeping out from behind the
iron bars awaiting a further hearing at the
next term of court.
Of lut erest to the Farmer.
X correspondent writes to the New and
Farm that he is creditably informed by a
farmer in his neighborhood that the crow
is a deadly foe to the chinch bug. The
farmer says that not many days ago, he
had a piece of corn almost literally covered
wit h these pests and he had concluded it
was devoted to utter ruin, but a flock of
crows '"swooped" down upon it, and ad
dressed themselves cheerily to the consump
tion of the multitudinous army of bugs. In
two or three days' time the chinch bugs had
been transported from the crop of corn to
the crop of the crow and now farmer Rober-
son is enthusiastic in his good words for his
sable friends, the crows.

A Creditable Entertalnmeat.- -
The musical and Elocutionary entertain
ment given at the Opera House last Thurs
day night was largely attended by our peo
ple and withal a grand success. Prof. Hous
ton, aa Elocutionist, prove-! himself
master oi bis profession ana received nu
merous comments froi aa attentive and
appreciative audience. The musical part
of the program, which was furnished by the
Salem Orchestra, likewise cam in for its
share of favorable comment,, maintaining
throughout , their reputation as amateur
musicians of the first grade. Our people
feel proud, and justly sc, of the Salem Or
chestra, which never fails to render the
best of music.
A Colored Cemterlaa.
Our neighbor, the Daily, learns of an old
colored man near Sedge Garden, about nine
miles north of Winston, by the name of
Frank Mathews, who is 102 years of age,
and who furthermore can prove by good au
thority that he is the father of 75 children ,
a majority of whom ore still living. He al
so has 150 grandchildren, . and 20 great
grandchildren. . It is said that Frank was
somewhat of a Erighem Your.g before the
war, as there were 1.0 legal marriages recog
nised among the colored people at that time.
Frank remembers seeing Gen. George Wash -ington
when he passed through here and
stopped at the old Salem hotel. Ve would
da that Alex. Gates,' the barber, married
one of the 75 children, with whom he is
WW living. -
The M. P. ttawday School Pie- Nle.
The pic-nic given by the M. P. Sunday
School, of this city, last Thursday was a
most pleasant occasion and by many will be
remembered as one of the pleasantest events
ever given by the school. The scholars turn
ed out in full force and a large representa
tion of teachers and friends of the school
joined them in making the occasion a grand
success, ine pic-nicers drove out ef town a
few minutes after eight o'clock, and reach
ing their destination (Clinard's Stand)
shortly after nine, were soon eojoying the
many festivities and continued them antil
the hour arrived to gather around
a table fifty feet in length, ladened with a
dinner that did honor to the occasion. It
is needless to add that every one present did
justice to tbe many delacacies that were
spread before them. .
Our reporter did not reach the ground
until after the repast was served, bat was in
time to enjoy the cake and lemonade which
flowed In abundance. -
The pic-nic was an enjoyable' one. and so
pronounced by every one present, especially
one couple who sought to enjoy the occasion
alone and judging from appearances, their
days of "single-blessedness" have long ince
been numbered. - - ;
There was nothing to mar the occasion"
until jus, before the hour arrived for the
crowd tfi start for their various homes. It
waa then that a lad of about - eighty or ten
summers was seen to plunge (backward)
into the tab of ice-cold Jemomtde. To say
that he was thoroughly drenched and felt
as if a chilling breeze had passed that way,
would be patting it in plain terms, judging
lrora his countenance when rescued.
: Soon the crowd were enroute for borne,
bearing with them pleasant memories Tf the
pic-nic given by the Methodist Protestant
Sunday School. - -
