A Millionaire's Advice to Young Men.
A" well known millionaim, with a national reputation for conservatism, said in
conversation the other day: "It I were a young man aaxtous for independence, I
would invest mv savihes in a small piece of rood real estate. When I had It Mid
for I would put the deed away and forget
on anotner."
Doubtless every man has felt at some time
That he would like to have a little piece ot this earth of this great country that
he could call his own. This is a worthy sentiment, bat to seleot his piece of land
in the heart of a amnions community where the mere pressure of population is
there to increase tho value of his holding, perhaps many fold this is sentiment
combined with business.
It unquestionably strengthens a man's character to own property Increases his
responsibility. If he can tie himself up, and is obliged to make regular payments
he is sure to save. 1 he trouble is he allows the chance to pass. He is going to
begin next month. Rich men talk ot the importance of a man's first Thousand
Dollars. Why not his-drst Hundred or his first Tenf The saving of your first $10
may be your first step to independence. THB TIM TO DO IT Id NOW.

Repoit ot Grand Jury April Teim of
Court:
New Bern, Craven County, North Caro
lina, April 10th, 1903.
To Bis Honor, G. S. Ferguson, Judge
presiding: We, The Grand Jury for this
term, respectfully beg to submit to the
Court the following report of the servi
ces performed, by us. We have endeavor
ed to faithfully follow Instructions. Our
duties have been executed to the best of
our knowledge and ability.
Out of 57 bill indictmentB we find 88
true bills, 11 not true bills, 8 continued
over tor Jack of fitnesses. We made 14
presentments.
We'vlslted the county jill and Inspec
ted building and yard, found premises
clean and In order. We find 8 windows
In south end of building entirely closed
by solid Iron shutters, we would sdylst
that those solid shutters be removed and
in place of same use Iron grating so as
to allow free circulation of air In . sum
mer and sunlight In tho winter. The
old wooden floor In building should be
replaced by a now one as tho present
one Is In a bad condition. We also find
that a crack In division wall between
main jail and outer rooms Is unsafe and
should be repaired. We would suggest
the addition of 4 new Iron cages as they
are needed for the safe kecplnf of prison
ers.
In the office of Register of Deeds we
found every thing In order. We would
recommend that the register be allowed
to have an old volume of Records, Book
No. 6 transcribed, as It is very old and
the paper Is rotten and discolored. A
new copy would be the means of pre
serving the records.
We found the Clerk's office In order
and well kept.
We Inspected the office of Bherlff and
found everything In order.
Noose river bridge was examined and
It wss found that 10 or 13 new planks
are needed hfBoor of bridge, to replace
those that are badly worn or rotten, one
of ahtch Is so rotten as to be unsafe, the
rest ot bridge Is In good condition.
We found on Inspection of Trent river
bridge that the south end ot draw gale
Is not sate, as It cannot be locked. Found
30 rotten or badly worn planks In floor
of bridge which we advise replacing
with new ones. Railing In bad condi
tion ia some places, the platform loading
from bridge to keepers' house Is In a
dangerous condition. '
The county Home wss visited and
upon examination wss found to be in
first-class condition, clean and well-kept
the keeper doing all in ber power for the
comfort of the inmates, all of whom say
they aro well eared tot and well-fed. We
find they are badly crowded, four and
Ave persons occupying the same room,
the diseased inmatea hava to occupy the
same room with those In health. An 8
room building should bo provided at
once to meet the needs of the Home-and
to replace the 9 buildings recently de
stroyed by fire, we would also suggest
that a tores pomp and hoes be added for
ase la case of firs. ' 0 ; ' ' ,
-We find Courr HotuTbulldlng snd
grounds weir kept and In first-lass
order. Vl t. Q. Mitchell,
