had been punched and the hole fill, d will

1t happened, however, that it was all the
passenger had.
If l take it," sGid the conductor, al
will have to charge you fifteen cents for
that hole"
Charge what you please" answered
the passenger; I'm in hurry, and can
stop to argue about it.
The conductor handed the mar eighty
cents in change. The passenger counted
it over, gazed at the man, then at the
money, and said, softly:
Haven't ye made mistake in the
chapgeP Didn't give ye dolIar?"
Yes, but I had to charge you fifteen
cents fht the hole in it,"
That's all right, I've paid for the

MY NEIGHBoR,
MARIE OLIVER.


Friends NAV call me odd and sober
As journey on through lie,
And perhaps may term me soured
By its dim, unceosng strife.
But I've something left to tell me
That all far things are not dead,
Aud tho'pleasures dreams have vanished.
Fancy's visions have not fled.
So while those about me call me
PAssE, and devoid of glce,
l have something which awakens
Many train of thought in me.
Something, which with erring blindness
They have ever failed to know;
Something which illumines clearly
All the path l yet must go.
IT'S my brown eyed red lirped neighbor,
A most charming, dainty thing,
With voice like a canary
When it tunes its notes to sing.
From my window oft watch her,
Stranger tho she be to me,
n anu nOle lne smiles WhlC1 latter
In their sweet simplicity.
Till the blood which courses slowly
Through each thin and withered vein,
Quickens DER the thoughts which travel
Through the chambers Of my brain.
And sit and dream on slowly,
Like man whose heart once young,
CLOVIS again with fancies tender
Der the songs he once has sung.
Till the fire light flckers softly
Ger the golden tinted wall,
And Pm wakened from my dreaming
BY the silence over all.
Do | love my little neighbor?
nave never told her SO.
And the thoughts which rise within me,
! am sure she does not know.
For only sit and watch her
From my half closed window blind,
And II Pm judge of human nature,
am sure she does not mind.
So the world may term me prosy,
But while of it Pm part,
None will know what hold my neighbor
Had upon an old mans heart

The Pennington Case.

The case against W. P. Penning-
ton came up in police court on Fri
day morning of last week. Esquire
E. X. P. Osborne, acting Mayor,
dismissed the charge of affray upon
which Pennington was arrested and
decided that he had not jurisdiction
in the charge Of resisting officers.
The case goes to the Inferior Court,
and Pennington failing to give bail
went to Jail.
This man now lays in Jail all on
account of a false charge, false ar
rest and brutal conduct of cowardly
policemen. We do not justify Pen
nington nor any one else for resist
ing officers of the law even when
they know they are innocent and
the charges based upon prejudice.
All persons should always quietly
submit to arrest and await trial
for vindication. Pennington denies
resisting the officers. We heard no
charge against his wife, yet there
was warrant for her also. We
shall await the result of the court
in the matter and at the same time
call the attention of the Board of
Aldermen to it. According to the
testimony Of Orr they went upon
the woman, as we suppose, from
tiersmen to surprise band of hos
tile Indians. He says: "She was in
the back yard when we approached
the gate; she rushed to the house
and we rushed in the front door,"
Is that the way to approach per-
son to serve a warrant? We will
wait till the trial comes off in court

A SAD AFFAIR.

1t is with much regret that we
mention the sad affair which oc-
Cured in our city last Thursday
evening.
Miss Laura Lomax, daughter Of
Bishop Lomax, was insultcd and
struck while quietly walking along
the principal street. Mr.. B. Har-
ris, who has been paying some at
tcntion to her, in attempting to have
some explanation from the white
rough who offered the insult, got
into a fight with him. That was
all very well, as all concede the right
to any gentleman to protect lady.
1t seems that some one attacked
this white man, Jones, who, by the
way, is an herb doctor and partner
of DR.. Kiesler, on Thursday night.
He was used pretty roughly, where
upon dozen young men were ar
rested and bound over to the Infe-
rior Court next week. More next
week.

Old Axe Visits Greensboro Meets
Old Friends and Does the Fruit Fair.

CHARLOTTE, N. c., Aug. IL, 'S2.
went to Greensboro last week,
to see the Fruit Fair, held there on
the 9th and 10th, and to see the dis
play Of Democratic gas, that was
advertised to be shot off at that
time by the Democratic solons
present. l found a large crowd
there and it seemed as if the whole
county was out on holiday.
The Fair was formally opened at
II o'clock M. Wednesday the 9th,
in large brick building in the GEN.
ter of the town, by Gov. Jarvis,
who congratulated the farmers of
the country upon the wonderful
progress being made in agriculture
in the State.
After the speech making, the
visitors made a tour of the build
ing, examining the display of fruits,
grapes, wines and other things upon
exhibition. The display was very
fine indeed. The peaches looked
delicious, and the varieties were too
numerous to mention. Grapes of
all kinds were displayed; foreign
and domestic grapes being placed
side by side showing that this coun-
try is equal to any other as a grape
producing State.
Dried fruits were displayed in
cores, apples and peaches dried by
somebody's evaporation were as
white as when cut and looked more
as an ornament than as food.
The display of wines were fine.
The display from the Tokay vine-
yard at Fayetteville was large and
fine indeed. ] did not taste any as
they said it was dry town. The
preserved fruits and jellies, while
not numerous, were put up with a
care which showed that the people
of North Carolina knows something
else besides making turpentine.
After the people got tired of look
ing at the Fair, they repaired to a
grove in the suburbs, where Bennett
and other great Democratic lights
let off great deal of gas. 1 did
not stay long, as the gentleman
who carried me there insisted on
ice-cream, after which we repaired
to Mr.. J. r Nocho's where we were
Hospitality entertained by Mrs,
