A one week's term of Superior court
for the trial, of criminal cases came
to an end this morning. Judsre W. M
Bond, of fidentdn, has been presiding
and has made a yery dgoo impression
by the manner in wHich he expedites
business. A number of important
cases were concluded during 'the
week and the county's good " road
forces increased, by a substan
tial number. One of the hardest
fought cases of the week was that of
three negroes, charged with breaking
into some stores at Rowland. Blood
hound evidence played a big part in
th prosecution.- All were acquitted.
The county auditor reports that per
sons who have never listed taxes be
fore have been coming in. - This is a
result, of several having Deen fined
in court this week for failure to list.
