Taylor, who lives at Vandaha, three miles south of town, made a special visit to Tut Woffxauif this morning. The paper has been taken in her family regularly tor a nam ber of years, except a few weeks in 1890, and she bears testimony ' to the fact that the paper affords reach enter tainment to herself as well as literary improvement to her children. It is looked for every day and eager ly read by all the members'of the faro fly. It contains just about the amount of matter that she has time to read each day. She can plainly see the im provement it makes in her children. Mrs Taylor says that when our mer chants advertise any ipecicl days, she knows when to come to town to. avr.il herself of the advantage offered. In a word, the experience of Mrs. Taylor is one of the fairest and most just testimonials to the various advan tages of a troth telling: paper in a fami 'y that Thi; Workman has been faror- ed with. Alter hearing her tell of the implicit confidence she placet in the statements made in Thi Work man we are prouder than ever of .our record for adherence to the plainjtruth, as we are able to understand it .

J. W: Gen try, was arrested in Oxford last even. img on a warrant issued by his father- in-law, and brought here fortriaL He claims that a -fellow named Williarcs did marry the girl, but the two witness es at the marriage say he was the same one they saw maihed. , The case was heard before the. Mayor this morning. Owing to the il'ness and severe shock to his first wife, his second ife's sister, the father-in-law withdrew the warrant and Gentry was discharged f-ora custo dy. It is said that both of his wives are at Oxford now, and wife No. ' t is very low. It is a strange proceeding, and, under the laws of our State, there is some work for the grand jury of Durham and IJranv.Me to do at the I next terms of their respective courts. uurnam oun. w , - Drury Howell will continue' to haye fresh fish at 1 is stall in the market. f-stf- ' PERSOHAL- POINTERS.
