LET THERE BE LIGHT.
Few Remarks about street IIIumjna-
ton in Winston.

ton in winston.
The papers throughout the State are
laughing over the item recently published
in THE SENTINEL, about the stealing of our
street lamps. One exchange wanted to
know where our policemen were; another
paper drew the conclusion that the lamps
must be few and far between, and that they
emitted such dismal light" that thieves
were enabled to purloin them, and another
paper is inquisitive enough to ask what
could the rogues want with the lamps If
they didn't give forth any better light.
Many and various have been these para
graphs and it is needless to say they have
not left a fattering impression Of Winston,
upon the minds of the readers. The same
sort of an impression will be thrown out to
the prospecting stranger who visits our city,
and has occasion to be upon our streets af-
ter dark. He will doubtless conclude that
our people are too busy making money to
bother about SO little thing as street lights.
Will not such conclusion be stab at our
local pride and ought it net to goad us up
to the importance of taking steps looking to
better illumination, or of demanding of our
City Fathers that the present arrangement
be attended to in more satisfactory man
ner. The complaint ON this subject seems
to be almost universal among our citizens
and THE SENTINEL would like exceedingly
to be able to report progress regarding the
gas company which we were led to suppose
would begin operation about this time.
We would rather however, be able to re-
port the organization of an electric light
company, and we think better light can
be furnished at equally as small cost as or
binary gas. Durham, Wilmington and
Raleigh have electric lights which are CIV
ing general satisfaction. Why is lit Winston
cannot display an equal amount of enter
prise

The Feast Of Purim.

Our Hebrew friends celebrate the Feast
of Purim this year beginning on the even
ing of the 10th of March. This Feast de-
rives its origin from the story of Esther,
SO beautifully told in the Old Testiment,
and is commemorative of the deliverance
of the Jews through her fundamentally
from the hatred of Hannah. The date OF
this event is set down in the Jewish chron
ology as b. C. 353. The feast is proceeded
blythe feast of Esther, when the orthodox
Jews abstain from food and drink from
sunset to sunset in celebration of the three
days feast of Esther before she presented
herself before Ahasurerus to defeat the
plot Of Hannah. Services are held in the
synagogues, and the Gillath is read with
appropriate prayers.

Mr.. y. G. Hege's poultry farm about two
miles North of Winston, is quite curiosity
to visitor. He now has $40 fowls which
are divided into families of twenty, with
small houses or coops some fifty yards apart,
and SENTINEL reporter was told that each
family knew their. homes. Brown Game,
Black Leghorn, Langshang and Plymouth
Rock are the principal breeds, though he
has number of the common stock.
Mr.. Hege's son said that it required a
bushel of corn, with oats, chop and several
other ingredients mixed and boiled in slop
to feed them day. They have been re-
ceiying from five to six dozen eggs per day
during the winter. We learn Mr.. Hege
will run a truck farm and an apiary in con-
nection with the poultry business.
We think were Mr.. 81. to divide the diff
ferent breeds it would be far better paying
investment than the present way in which
he has them arranged.
