LYNCHIuRG. August

LYNcHDuRG, August @.
The Whites OF this place went to Eden
ton last Saturday and played the first
nine of that place. 1t was by far the
best game VIC have witnessed this season.
The Whites went with determination
to win, and win they did. The game
opened with Wayne at the bat. The
Whites were blanked. Edenton scored
two unearned runs. In the second the
Whites opened up on the famous Ruys.
ton and scored seven runs. The Eden
tons scored one tally. For the next
three innings both sides were banked
In the sixth the Whites again opened
up and scored three runs. Edenton
scored one. In tho next inning the
Whites failed to connect, as did their
opponents. In tho eighth the Whites
were again hlanked, likewise the Eden
tons, and the ninth was a repetition of
the seventh and eighth, making the score
10 to in favor OF the Whites.

Harrison and Morton Club,

SuGARTREE RIDGE, Aug. 6.
The Republicans of Concord township
met Mt this place last Wednesday night
for the purpose of organizing Harrison
and Morton Club, and notwithstanding
a heavy rain fell, u large crowd was out.
The Glee Club and Drum Corps OF Hills
boro were in attendance and rendered
some OF the best music for the occasion
1t has been ourpleasure to hear for some
time. The meeting then proceeded to
organize, with Z. o. Hethcrington chair
man pro tenn. Mr.. II. d. Davis read the
constitution and bylaws which were
unanimously adopted. DR.. L. NJ. Bog
CESS was elected Chairman and John
Booth Secretary, after which member
ship of thirty-flve names quickly follow
ed, and Concord Is now in line Of battle.
The club consists OF the young men OF
Concord township, and they will at once
proceed to organize glee club, and old
Concord will be heard from before the
campaign is over. Mr.. II. d. Davis de-
livered an address that is worthy oi
special mention, and we would advise
every voter to make it point to hear
him before they cast their ballots. After
music by the Glee Club, Mr.. Geo. Gar.
rett was loudly called for, who respond.
ed with one of his brilliant speeches, and
although it was past ten o'clock, the
crowd was sorry when Mr.. Garrett closed
his speech. II you want to hear spicy,
deep and jolly speech, don't fail to hear
George Garrett. Hillsboro may well be
proud Of her young Republican orators
We hope that every township in High
land county will follow the example Of
Concord, and Immediately organize Har
rison and Morton clubs. The Democrats
OF Concord as rule have not forgotten
the promises made them four years ago
when the cry was, "Give us a change
and we will show you what good timei
we will have" Some OF them have con
cluded that il the present condition o.
things is the result, they want no more
OF 1t, and will cast their votes for Harri
son and Morton. 4.

On last Saturday afternoon this com.
munity was startled by the report that
John Brown had been shot by his
brothcr-in. law, Marion Dritton. The
shooting took place in front of and in
the Parker House. The shooting IL the
result OF family feud, arising from an
engagementof marriage between Brition
and his deceased wife's sister. The
breaking Of this engagement is charged
by Britton to the influence of Brown
over his sister. This led to bad feeling
and bitter quarrel, which resulted in
Brown swearing out charge of lunacy
against Britton. The charge was not
proven when the trial took place before
the Probate Court. This act and its re-
suits only intensified the already bitter
feeling, making II ono of deadly hatred
on the part of both mon. Since that
time both men have been carrying arms
for defence and the result is as above
stated. Britt6n came to lIilsboro last
Saturday on business, sold lot of wool
to Mr.. Henry Head, and transacted
some other business, paying bill which
he owed to 1. A. Feibel. In passing the
Parker House, where Brown was sitting
outside, Britton quietly drew his revolv.
or and without speaking word fred
at Brown, the ball taking effect in the
right side and producing a slight flesh
wound. Brown then jumped to hi, feet
and ran into the Parker House. Britton
followed him and shot the second time,
the ball striking him in the neck, jarring
the spinal column and producing par.
tial paralysis of the whole body. Brown
is still lying at the Parker House in a
very critical condition. Britton was i'm.
mediately arrested and placed in Jail,
where he is still confined. The prclm.
mary trial was set for last Tuesday
morning at nine o'clock. The hearing
did not take place but was continued
until the 18th OF the present month.
We will keep the readers OF the News.
HERALD informed of any important facts
which may take place in the progress OF
the case.

A Thing OF Deanty,

The statue at Harsha's Marble Works
is well worth visit to see. The statue
represents female figure with rose
bud delicately retained in one hand.
The statue is little over four and one
half feet high, nearly life size. The
workmanship is foreign, the sculptur-
ing having been done in Carrara, Italy.
The cost must have been considerably,
when the duty alone was $lG0. The
whole execution is very fine, to the com.
mon observer it is perfect. This valu-
able piece of art is for DR.. B. F. Holmes,
OF our town. Doc. is not recognized as
being connoisseur in the fine arts, but
he has displayed very fine taste in
this selection. The statue Is to be placed
in the Hillsboro cemetery, and it will be
classed among the fine works of art
already placed in our beautiful ceme-
tery.

Special Bargains In Bankrupt Goods.

The almighty dollar. The many have

have not been named or qnoted in this
or any other market. Hence, we will
continue to buy every class OF merchan-
disc that we can hay at less than its true
value, and for CASH ONLY, we will
throw out among the masses these
matchless goods and matchless prices,
to check the insane and criminal prac.
tice OF wasting money for the paltry con-
sideration OF little credit.
Big prices will not do in these days Of
panic and hard times, when even the
wealthy cannot afford to waste their
money and the poor require double duty
OF every dollar and every penny. As
our prices may change with every pur.
chase, 1t will be impossible to give quo-
tations, but it will be our aim to namo
figures that will compel you, in self.de-
Tense, to buy of US. We deal in good
goods, and not in trash, and will believe
the masses will patronize that house
that sells the best goods for tho least

The Methodist ladies' of the southwest
quarter of town gave social in their
church last Friday evening. Despite
the threatening clouds and the thermom.
eter in the "nincties," there was good
attendance. A choice programme occu-
pied about thirty minutes, and from the
first number, executed in sprightly
manner by Miss l,ockhold, to the lovely
Echo Song by Mrs. Sloane, all was ex.
cellent. Mr.. Thompson and his flute
never discoursed sweeter music. The
support of Miss Kennedy's exquisite &C.
compartments on the piano was surely
an inspiration to the soloists, as we'll as
delight to all. The recitations of Miss
es Hiestand and Perrin were of n pleas
ing, popular character and elected hearty
applause. The programme was followed
by n general discussion of cake, cream,
candies and ices. Every contributor
"had good luck with her cake" The
homemade ices disappeared as snow be-
forc the sun. The French candies were
especially enjoyed by the Juveniles. We
opine the French of the candies was due
to Mrs. L. allowing only that language
spoken over the simmering sweets.
Everybody was happy and liberal. The
children were numerous, happy and
wcll.behaved. The roistering element
that in some places mars the enjoyment
of such occasions was conspicuously alb.
sent. The management are to be con.
graduated, especially as the expenses
consumed but little over onc.sevcnth OF

Close Of Summer Institute.

Ihe teachers OF this county have long
felt the need of Summer Normal, but
the result of such an experiment was so
doubtful that no one felt equal TO the
task, consequently not until this sum-
mer was the establishment OF such
school attempted
The management was under the con.
troll of the originator of the school, Mr..
Il. L. Richards, to whose spirit and de.
termination the teachers of this county
are indebted, and the success OF the ex-
pertinent is now no longer doubt, but
reality. In regard to the wealth sup.
posed to have been amassed by the
President OF the school, it is not so fabu.
lous as one might imagine, but the step
upward toward the higher education,
and the energy and enthusiasm dis.
played by ever teacher and student in
the school proclaims it, cmphatioally, a
success.
Friday, July 9th, was the last day OF
jolly, hard, six weeks session. No
one realized that the last day had dawned,
SO fully employed had been the time,
until the afternoon rolled around.
AT the request of the students the
evening recitations were not heard and
the time was spent socially.
"Every sweet hath its bitter" but we
failed to discover how this could refer to
the watermclons and peaches served on
the Conservatory porch. "Nothing in
this world can last" is just rs true of re.
Treatments as it is OF any other pleasure,
for when the time came to return to the
chapel we were "too full for utterance."
After short, but earnest addresses
from Profs. Blair, Ferguson, Richards
and Detwiler, the following resolutions
were read and unanimously adopted;
WHEREAS, In the establishment OF a
Normal School in Hillshoro, the teachers
OF Highland county feel that there has
been taken step in advance in regard
to the educational interests of said
county, and that they should show their
appreciation OF 1t in tho following reso.
lutions:
Resoired, That we, the students of the
Normal Institute, extend to Mr.. 4. f.
Richards, the originator OF tho school
our hearticst thanks for the interest
manifested in our behalf by placing
within our reach an Institute OF sucll
superior advantage.
1
Resolred, Thatto tho faculty, collective,
ly and separately, we show slight token
OF our regard, by extending to them our
heartfelt thanks for the past, and oul
best wishes for the future.
Reselred, That to the gentlemen who
favored us with lectures we owe oul
grateful regards for their entertaining
instructions.
Lastly, That a copy OF these resolu
tions be sent to the county papers fol
publication.
