The demand for 'knockers" in some circles is so large that the supply which, fortunately for humanity, is small, is quite exhaus ted. Some papers in this State could n't get along without an occasional kick at something and they seem to fail to realize that "every knock is a boost." .We- would advise . them to throw away their little hammer and get a horn. War has been declared against the flies in New Bern and a host of these pesky little critters are each day slain. No mercy should be shown them, in fact every citizen should get his am munition together and start in to bat tle without any further delay and kill a few thousand just for the fun of the thing.

Smith, chief of police of Farmville, began this morning. This is the case in which Smith was killed in Pollard's store on Saturday night, January 17th, last. Until some time before the men had been warm friends, but some mat ter caused them to fail out. They had some trouble and Pollard had forbid den Smith to enter 'his place of busi- j ness, or told him to stay out. Feeling was high between them. On the fatal night Smith entered Pollard's place and was ordered out. Very few words passed between hem when shooting j began, Smith being fatally shot. How ever, he was hurried- to Dr. Tayloe's hospital at Washington, where he died the next morning. Pollard fired first and before Smith could fire he was caught by bystanders. As they caught him he fired backward over his shoul der at Pollard but missed. Pollard made no effort to escape but surren dered, was brought hereand lodged in jail where he has since been. Smith had a reputation for being handy with his gun and had two killings to his cradit, and was considered rather a dangerous man. Pollard kept adrug store, selling soft drinks and patent medicines. The case will be a hard fought one, there being a big array of lawyers both for the prosecution and the defense. For the prosecution assisting Solicitor Abernethy will be Harding and Pierce Albion Dunn and W. F. Evans, of this city, and H. S. Ward, of Washington; lor trie deNnse will be Harry Skinner, T. I. larvis. -rF. M. - Wooten. : Tubus Brown, F. G. this city", and W. W. Kit- chin, of .Raleigh, James & Son, and Moore & Long, of Raleigh. Pollard wasiarraigned at the Jan uary term of court and the case con tinued, the expectation being mat' an extra term would b; called for the case. . ii Dr. Morrill Testifies. The jury was completed at 4 o'clock this afternoon... Dr. D. S. Morrill, the first witness for the State, was exam ined. He Kesftfied that he attanded Smith after the shooting, examined the wound and told him that without an operation he would die Smith de "DROPPING Wm$?-t!&&r. . us navy .

He was taken to the hospital however and died without an operation. The witness said that Smith told him that he went into. Pollard's store and that the latter said, ''Smith, get out of here. He asked what for and Pollard fired. The doctor admitted 'he had contributed a small amount to the prosecution fund. He testified that the ball entered the , left side, went through the body and lodged under the skin of the right hip. - - After the., adjournment the judge heard aj-gument no a motion to allow Pollard bail in the sum of $10,000. Alter much argument the judge took the matter under advisement, asking that precedents be cited. An immense crowd was present today and great interest is shown in the case. Postmaster Whichard is 1 notified that free city . delivery of mail will begin June 20th. MISSION TO BE HELD Rev. J. R. Mathews Will Be In Charge fciirijiLv Rev. John R.
