said before he got through with all

Our Mayor as a Detective.
Mayor Williams has. rare gif u as a
detective. Yesterday a colored man
who says bis name is Henry Boskins
appeared at Stewart's stablee with a
set of harness which he offered to sell at
$3.50. Mayor Williams was present
and feigned to urge Mr. Stewart to buy
them. But Mr. Stewart, believing tbat
all was not right with the harness, re
fused to buy, whereupon Hoekine
walked off. Mayor Williams jumped
into 'a buggy after Hoekina had gone
some distance and overtaking him re
marked, "Bring your harness here and
get up in the buggy and go with me to
get the money, I will buy them." Hoe
kins at once took a seat in the buggy
and in less than two minutes he was at
the police station in rare of the marshal
and police. The.harness, it is said, be
longs toWhltty fc Gates. A bearing
will be had Monday morning.
A Mistake.
The Durham Tobacco Plant of July
10th has a splendid photograph of Ed
ward A. Oldham and a sketch of bis
oareer as a journalist. In the brilliant
description of journalistic life we find
this paragraph:
In the winter of 1881 he accepted the
position of managing editor of the
Daiiy.Gommerotal News of New Berne
N. 0.4 afterward merged into the uaily
JOURNAL, WhlOh Still exists. ,
This is a mistake. . Neither the Daily
Commercial 'News nor any othe'r paper
was ever merged into the Dailt Joub
nal. J. W. Harper bought th outfit
of the Commercial News Company and
formed a copartnership with the owners
of the Kinston Jdurnal, H. S. Nunn &

Charlotte News: l urmors in town
today report that ihey have about

having their own way. All report line
prospects for large crops.
Goldsboro Argus: One of our mer
chants was made happy on yesterday by
a gentleman coming in and settling an
account tbat had been standing since
1874. He was an honest man.
La Grange Spectator: It pains us to
announce the death of Miss Ada Kinsey
which occurred last Tuesday, ohe was
19 years of , age, a daughter of Mr.
Joseph Kinsey, and an excellent chris
tian lady.
Wilmington Advertiser: ihe grape
crop of North Carolina, and especially
in this immediate vicinity, promises to
be very good, although the fruit will
not be ready for market as early by a
few days it was last year.
Wilmington Messenger: Fishing at
the black fish grounds near Southport
is good now. A party ou Monday last
oftught about four hundred in less than
two hours.' Rav. F. D. Swindell, who
was one of the party, caught fifty-five.
Goldsboro Banner: The damage to
low ground crops is great. Most of the
fanners, near the mer and swamns
resort a portion or all their corn was
destroyed while many also have lost
cotton, The prospects for many are
gloomy. ! v'S
Leaksville Uazettet ihe corn crop on
many farms in thie section is badly in

large to plow. The wheat crop was
considerably Injured in the shock by
wet weather. Much of it was still in

were ween with Sprouts.

of last week did a great deal of dam
age to efpps and. lands in: this county,
especially along the water courses and
in the hilly sections. But we hope it is
not so bad as many of the farmers say.
Such calamities ate usually exagger
ated.
Charlotte Democrat: Mr. Sanders of
this city calls attention to a disadvant

8tatesville Landmark; The last rain
fell lasti Thursday night. Friday was
fair and the, days hava been growing
warmer1 ever since. The farmers have
got their wheat up- (and it is not much
damaged) and the cotton and corn are
being . rapidly Cleared or -: grass. A
gentleman who; has lately traveled
from Greensboro to Asheville, (topping
at intermediate points, s renortS" the
cursing among the .Patriots on account
of the recent Federal appointments in
this district, as being both loud and
deep. .The latest?; talk . among the Re
publicans is that Eavesl confirmation
must be aeteated.-'- am l.- H. Htrad
ley. of .this vicinity returned a few
Bunoombe and brought , back with him
a tool chest which has a history.
His father, James Stradley, was an
Englishman and a soldier and wss
with the Duke of Wellington in
the great war which involved so muoh
of Europe and which ended with the
downfall of Napoleon. . This old obest
was at the battles of Leipeio and Wa
terloo and all the other battles of that
great war. and was brought afterwards
by its owner to America. He landed
at Charleston and after a short stay
there sought the mountains of North
Carolina and died at Asheville three
years ago aged 93 years. His son, Mr.
I. H. Stradley. has inherited the old
chest with its tools and drove through
town with it Monday morning.
LA GRAftttE ITEMS.
Officer Vincent is doing our "city"
streets up nioely.
Why is it that our town has so few of
the F. A. meetings?
Mr. J. D. Johnston came up from
Morohead for a few days.
Mr. Frank McCoy left on Wedn?fday
as agent for some publishing house.
Rev. W. E. Swain, formerly pastor of
the M. P. Church here, was visiting in
our town last week.
The fair and flower-like Miss Florence
Love of Raleigh, who has been visiting
friends here, returned to her home on
Tuesday last.
The poem, "A Reply," in your last
week's Journal, was truly ahead of the
average impromptu effort. The writer
appears to have caught on to the clever
knack and the proper tone at the offset.
How consolingly beautiful, how
touching it is, to behold the crown of
Christian glory upon the fair brow of
youth the royal robe of religion with
its ermine of innocence upon their
young shoulders, their tender feet safe
shod in the sandals of sanotity, readj
for that swift, sweet, solemn journey
from mortality into the immortality of
angels, where God promises us no more
parting, no more pain. In the death of
Miss Ada Kinsey, eldest daughter of
Mr. Joseph Kinsey of our town, which
sad event occurred on the 7th inst-, this
earnest preparation of the young and
happy for the coming of the "Angel
men call Death," was solemnly exem-
plilled. Religious services were con
ducted by Rev. J. J. Harper, many
friends and relatives attending. While
we lament the loss of this young Chris
tian, it is not for even this pen of sym
pathy to touch upon the anguish of the
stricken family. God only can comfort
them in their sorrow.
An Important Question.
"What shall we do with our boys'.-"
This is a question that many parents are
asking themselves. And a very impor
tant question it Ib. By all means the
boys should be educated. Then arises
the question, "Which is the best school
to send them tor" The school should
be first-class in every particular, and
the charges reasonable. The Davis
Sohool meets these requirements. It is
first-class in every particular. There is
a large faculty of able professors. The
best instruction is given in every de
partment. Young men can oomplete
their education at Davis School, or be
prepared for the highest classes of any
College or University. There is also a
full course in Ciyil Engineering, a full
Commercial Course, and a thorough
preparatory Medical Course. There is
no extra oharge for any of these studies.
Fuel, washing and lights are furnished
free of charge. In another column will
be found some particulars concerning
Davis School.
