Last Friday evening the skaters chased a "piney woods rooter" for about fifteen or twenty minutes. The one who caught the hog and held him up by the tail for fifteen steps was to be the owner thereof. The hog was literally covered with lard and was apparently as slippery as an eel just out of water, as he slipped out of the grasp of the chasing multitude of skaters. They grabbed, clawed and pawed for hini, though he did not run as was expected, and every one who made a grab at him got greasy—hands, clothes and everything and more over took heavy falls. The women stood on the benches as the performance began, lest th«-y get their dresses soiled by the swine rubbing up against them. The contestants did not *seem tc mind the grease, they were after swine's tail. Burrous Critcher having taken some beautiful falls and greasing himself as a result of many ati un successful grab, at length got the death-grip on the pig's "ultima tum" and bore him in safety the required distance. The judges very quickly rendered their de cision in favor of Burrous as the outsiders who ran up to hear yelled, "Hands off me I" A Birthday Party. On Tuesday, May little Miss Mittie C.

The Stock of Furniture 01 Mr. E. R. Jackson Completely Destroyed. At about 3 o'clock last Saturday morning the town was aroused by the tap of the fire bell to find that the furniture store of Mr. E. R. Jackson, next to Thk Kntkrpkisk office, was puffing dense clouds of smoke. The firemen were on the scene in short order with the en gine and hose, and after working untireingly for an hour and a half had the situation under complete control, the fire going no further than the store of its origin. Noth ing was saved out of the store. It looked like the flames would uever be subdued at first—the fire could not l>e reached with the hose, there being a huge mass of mat resses in the way, but Mr. Man ning with the "tnnck rake" dug the mass of ui a tresses out and the stream of the hose was applied to advantage, and after persisting with varied effotts they had the flames under complete control and the women ceased trembling. Kador, Terry, Grover, "Scog," John Cook, Mr. Manning and oth ers worked with great force -a fine aggregation of firemen. Will Rob erson was conspicuously alwent. The origin of the fire is not known —rats we suppose. The stock of goods amounted t053, 500, insurance $2,000. The insurance on the store was $i ,000. The grocery store of Mess. J. A. Mizell & Co. was converted into a smoke-house. Frank Fagan saved his skates and Warren lliggs his Coca Cola stand. Bradley-Joyner*-A Runaway. Mr. Ed. Bradley and Miss Maude Joyner, of Rocky Mount, were married Tuesday evening at about 8:30 o'clock at Blount's Hotel by Rev. Preston L,. Kirton. There was quite a crowd gather ed to witness the marriage—in overalls, in shirt sleeves, with smiles, bachelors, prospective brides, bachelor girls, the ancient ly married and even old maids. All classes of people are in sym pathy with the young lover who resolves upon the marriage state in spite of the threats and unwilling ness of the parents. We are ro mantic, poetic, to that event, and we would go out of our way to help a girl-steal, that was accord ing to law and with a "friendly connivance" we would bid them Ood-speed. We trust, like the Brownings, their lives will be n great and con tinuously flowing stream of joy—a life of love. Perrv-Peel Mr. B. K. Perry, of Everetts, ind Miss Sarah Peele, of Beat >;rass, were married last Sunday morning at the bride's home at to o'clock. They lift Monday for their home in Everetts. Mr. Per ry is'employed by the firm of Bal lard iXt Hu*nfu);hs, of Everetts. Tiik Kntkrihisb wishes that they may have a long, happy and prosperous life. Bell Taps to Indicate Fire District. There is always very much con fusion as to the locality of a fire, and we would therefore suggest that the watchman have a certain tap lor a certain district and thus remedy our present system, which does not tell u* anything but that there is a fire somewhere in town. This bell-tap system prevails in other towns and we think it would l>e expedient for our fire depart ment to adopt it.
