April 1st, the Concord Times will advance its subscription price from $1 to $1.50 a year. The advance is because the Times has found that it cannot publish a semi-weekly paper at $1 a year. Near Durham, Monday, Marvin Barbee, eight years old, was hand ling a 22-caliber rifle, when it was discharged and fatally wounded his cousin, the nine-year-old daughter of Mrs. Annie Barbee. The fifteen-year-old son of Dr. and Mrs. J. M.

Aman, a merchant of Clin ton and late sheriff and treasurer of Sampson County, has made an as signment. His liabilities are esti mated at $15,u00 and he is said to be in arrears in the matter of county funds to the extent of $15,000. J. A. Pearce, a white man who is charged as representing himself as an insurance agent and collecting money for which he gave nothing in return, was arrested at Old Fort last week by Deputy Insurance Commis sioner Scott and was taken to jail at Greensboro. In Edgecombe County Saturday John Watson, colored, attacked Jos. Howard, a white man. Howard ran into his house to get his gun. As he came out with the weapon a brother of Watson attempted to take the gun from him. In the struggle the wea pon was discharged and the negro killed. Two of Charlotte's policemen are in trouble on account of sowpaw. Pa trolman Asbury went to Salisbury and got so full that he was locked up. He resigned his job without waiting for an investigation. Ser geant Farrington is also charged with imbibing too freely and he is to have a hearing to-day. The Newton News says that Mr. Jo Sain, ninety years old, who lives with his daughter at Henry, Lincoln County, was robbed of $100 one night recently.

The father of one of the young ladies and a neighbor went after him and he shot at them, but was taken in cus tody. The aggregate sentences ia the police court for his various of fences amounted to ten months on the chaingang and a fine of thirty dollars. He appealed and gave a bond of $750. Justice will fail if Penland does not do time on the roads. FEBRUARY TERM OF COURT.

We often meet subscribers whose subscriptions have expired and who say that they wanted the paper on, didn't want to miss a copy, but neg lected to renew; "didn't come to town," etc. They show their faith by renewing. But they could often avoid missing several issues of the paper by using the U. S. mailswhich were invented for just such purposes.

Title perfect. J. M. POLLARD, Commissioner. J. C. L. HARRIS, Atty of Commissioner. January 3, 1907 30d. TONE The essence of piano quality is tone. The goal of all piano makers should be TONE. That property without which the most elaborately constructed piano is valueless is TONE. Without TONE durability is a mockery. Without TONE a piano is a "thumb box."
