The prisonfr is si ill suffering from his wounds aud may not be out of dinger. Mr White is getting along nicely, in fact has not beeu off of duty since tbe fracas, ihongh he has had a very sorehead. It was a nnrrow escape f r both, and the wonder is that under the cir cumstances Mr. White did not eontiune to shoot until the negro was dead.

Teachers Meeting Tomorrow. Teachers and pupilsof the Graded School have teen busy this week preparing for the teachers meeting to be held here tomorrow. We asked the question yesterdav as to whether Hon. Thos. W. Blount's picture were among the fixed decora tions of the building, and were an swered in the negative. This sur prised us somewhat, and calls for the assertion that it should be there", and occupy a position not even second to thatoftiie lamented Dr. Melvcr. Dr. Alclver was a power for educa tion in the State, but considering his education and opportunities, Mr. Blount has done more for tlte chil dren in Eastern North Carolina, and especially in Washington county, than even he, and we should not wait until he is dead to teach our children to appreciate his worth.

" ' 'The facta as jeporfed to us are: Mr. E. 11. iUGIawliorn, a contractor had started to enter the Episcopal church where Bishop Strange wus conducting services, when "at the gate someone arose from behind the tence and shot him three times in rapid successien, tun rapid that all the bullets entered the breast at the same idaee. People in the church. attracted by the shooting, rushed out and found the man lying in the gate, lie was taken to his home and tin io he died at G o'clock Tuesday morning. How he was shot w&s told by the wounded man before' he died," and while the moon was shining yet he said hf did not know who did the shooting, hence no clue 'is left that may lead to the arrest of the guilty party. COMING to PLYMOUTH. Hernstreet the Hypnotist a Marvel. The biggest laugh Macon has let loose for a long time was heard at the opera house last night when four hundred people roared at thehvpnot ic performance of Prof, lleiu.treet. He had a number of our best citi zens on the stage and had them thoroughly hypnotized, and the funny things he had them do were convulsing to the audience. It is impossible to particularize, suffici ent it is to say, that it wts as funny as a dozen comedians with a circus thrown in. Many who saw the de monstration last night laughed so much -they are almost sick today. The time has gone by when intelli gent people cry fake over such pow er as he possesses 'and his entertain ment allords a v pleasing variation from the general run of theatrical performances and one can attend them and enjoy a hearty laugh. The Professor wU give his last perfor mance tonight aud those who were not present last night should not miss a wonderful exhibition as some of our best people have promised to be hypnotized and the audience is sure to get its monay's worth. Macon, Ua , Times. Prof. Hemstreet will be at the Plymouth opera house Friday night, February 2ist, and two ladies or one lady aud one gentleman will be ad mitted on one paid ticket if at the opera house before 8:15 p. m.
