Five Dis pensaries Will be Oper ated, Several moths ago the Craven Coun ty Board of Commissioners decided to secure the services of the Hookworm Commission to give those af diced in this county free of charge. According- the sum of $350 was set aside for tbla purpose. The Commission offered to send their pbysic'ana and assistants here for $50 per week, the sum which was donated by the Board would secure their services for five weeks. Yesterday morning Dr. Strosuider of the S:at9 Board of Health and the Hookworm Commission, appeared be fore the Commissioners and informed them that he was ready to make prep eratlons for the establishment of the dispensaries in this county. After con sidering the matter the Board of Com missioner and the county physicians decided that the five dispensaries would be located as follows, one at each place; New Rem, Vanreboro, Cove City, Have- lock, Riverriale and Dover. Dr. Stros nider stated thst the work at these dis pemiarisa would be carried on in the following manner. On one day in the week; say for instance Monday, that treatment would be given at New Bern on the following day at Cove City and so on until each of the places designated had been visited. Then on the follow ing Monday treatment would again be received at New Bern, patients receiving this treatment absolutely free of charge. The points designated for the dispen sariet are easily accessible and every one who takes the treatment will have but little trouble in reaehing the dis pensary nearest tn them. During the winter months the hospital tents are not in use, the dispensary he will lo cated either in the schoolhouse or in the rear of some store. Dr. Strcsnider stated that he would begin the preliminary work such as ad vertising and have everything in read ineas, within a few days and would open up the dispensaries the first week after Christmas, New Bern, Take Notice.

This was the last the Inn people heard of him until the next day, when his lifeless body was found lying in the mud in a small creek that follows into North river, six milea from here. The rest of the story is as follows. Thursday afterneon two colored boys met the Washington man, whi asked the direction to North river.

Complaiuts Made by Tax Payers. Election of Officers. The Craveo County Board of Com- nvssioi.ers held their regular monthly session at the court house in this city yesterday. The session started off in a tranquil manner, but within a short wnite the scene was rather a stormy one. During tbe past few meetings of the Board there has been a number of complaints made by tax payers who claimed that they had been charged exhorbitant taxes. Yesterday, howev er, a number of persons appeared be fore the board and stated that they had been compelled to pay charges that they were nut entitled to pay. Chief among the complainants was Mr. J. Leon Williams, Mr. Williams aaked the board to relieve him of a tix of $150 placed on the carnival company which exhibited here during the Agri cultural and Stock Exhibit. Mr. Wil liams went into details in regads to the bringing of this attraction to New Bern in order to draw a crowd to attend the exhibits. He staled that he had not made a single penny from this car nival and that he did not think that the board should make him pay this tax. Attorney E. M. Green read a section of one of the Sta'e laws in which it is ata ted that an attraction of this kind can be taxed when the receipts go to an in dividual. Several prominent men made short talks before the board and urged that this tax be taken from Mr. Wil liams. MrJ Green stated that as attor ney for the board he would oot err from hie duty in as much as to consenting to this section. However, he finally con aented to feferring tbe matter to the Attorney General and being guided by what he said was the proper thing to do. The general opinion of those fa miliar with the case is that if the At torney General is familiarized with the existing circcmstancea he will relieve Mr. Williams of this tax. Mr. John W. Stewart next appeared and asked the board to relif ve-him from paying the county attorney's fee of $10 and the court fee of $6 on a tract of land which had been sold and which be longed him. Mr. Stewart stated that when he purchased the tract of land in question, he was not aware that the county had any taxes charged against ir, and that not until notice of the sale with the coats attached had been served on him was he aware'of the existing circumstances. Mr. Green stated thai he had been compelled to look over a nuTiber of old records in this cane and that his services were worth $10 and that he had charged that amount on the bill. Mr. Stewart then stated tlisA he was more than willing to pay the txes no the land, but. that he did not feel that he should be taxed with this other cost. The board took the matter up among thrmselvea and Anally deri ded that Mr. Stewart would have to pay both the taxes and the costs placed on the bill by the county sttnrnoy. The board authorised the issuance of 16,000 eoikniy bonds and $10,000 No 1 I township bonds to be used In the erec tion of the Craven County Farm Life School. Theae bonds arevto draw 5 per cent interest. At the opening of the session tbe county officers were elected and the bonds of each were examined and varl fled. The same officers were elected. Practically the entirety of the af Ur noon session. was spent in looking over and passing upon the bills, Just Received 1 solid carload of Brass and Iron Bede, we-can give you good strong Iron Beds ss low as $2 60 each, 2 Inch post for $8.00 that bests anything you ever SSW for the P'rice. , J.
