The County Commissioners yesterday increased the county's appropriation to the iund for macadamizing a portion of Neuse road from 9250 to $500. a good move which shows that the commissioners are in sympathy with the movement.

Church this afternoon at half past four o'clock. Mr, Styron was a native of Portsmouth, N. C. He went into the Confederate army when the war broke out and rerved until its close, then made New Berne his home and married Miss Laura Cutler, sister of Mr. L. H. Cutler, who, with four children, two sons and two daughters, survive him. Mr. Styron's health has been broken for two years; he has been confined to his room for three months with a complica tion of diseases, the immediate cause of death was a parly sis which attacked him last week. Mr. Slyron was at one time in business for himself in partnership with Mr. S. R. Bali, but the greater part of his time was spent as a salesman for others. Being popular his services were much sought after and he commanded very lucrative salaries. A Burglary. Mrs. A. T. Baxters residence was bro ken into Saturday night, but only a small amount was stolen, the only things d are a rubber coat and an umbrella. In the early part ot the night the dining room was vacated for a few minutes and wnen u was re-entered it was iouau umi some rolls which had been wrapped up on the table had been taken out into the vard. but'the removal could not be ac counted for. :' That night Mrs. Baxter awakened after midnight and hearing something, started to investigate! she found both doors and windows open, and found the lock of her trunk in her room had been picked and this trunk opened, put nothing taken from it. Lying by the trunk was a earving knife which had been . taken from the kitchen. Whether the thief became fright ened and left hnrridely or what was the m that he stole no more ot course can not be told, at was barely a week pre vious that Messrs. Kunn & McSorley's store was broken into. Those disposed to violate the law in this manner should remember that they not only run the risk of beinir killed while at their- nefarious work but that it is a crime for which they would be hung if caught. .,' What Can be Done la North Corollna. ; The following notice from the' Balti more News is short but it is a very good and truthful mention of this State.
