store. Here, according to previous
intention, we go in and find a full
line of jewelry, clocks, watches &c.
artistically displayed. Both Mr..
Bateman and his most excellent
young man, Mr.. Mat Baker, are
busy getting ready to furnish "good
time'' to their friends and patrons.
Mr.. B. has been doing buiness here
for many years and is among the
standard merchants of the city.
Leaving Mr.. Bateman's we go to
Mr.. E. L. Brinkleys one ofour oldest
dry-goods merchants in town and
one of the best dealers it has ever
been our good fortune to know. Here
we find Mr.. Smith, acting salesman,
a most polite and excellent young
gentleman who is always ready to
serve customers and whose attention
to business is subject of universal
remark.
Going up town we accidently stun
BILE over Messrs. Charles Sansbury ,Sr,
and Jr. farther and son. They are old
contractors and the very best mechan-
les this country has ever contained.
They are natives of this State and
county and to rank them among the
foremost mechanics is compliment
not only to them but, the State that
claims them as its own. They built
the bridge at the Norfolk Southern
Depot which, alone sufficiently at
tests their skill. They were both in
good spirits and hopeful as to the
future.
Leaving them or, on their leaving
Us, we 60 up town until we reach Mr..
j. M. SINNERS store, corner of
Queen and Main streets. We find
Mr.. Skinner, that easy. quiet, good
natured man he ever was and stick
ing to business as religiously as in
the earlier days Of his manhood. Mr..
S. is one Of our safe citizens. In
all public as we'll as private exigency
he is relied on with implicit conf
dence by his friends.
Here we are compelled to stop,
our hour being out, and retrace our
steps. We are going up TO Mr., Bur-
tons next week and interview him
on the outlook and when we do the
public shall hear from us-"Aint
you talking !"

MARRIED.

Mr.. ]. 8. Flora and Miss Alice
Albertson, both of E. City, came to
Edenton on the noon train, Monday,
and were married at St. Pauls church
by the Rector, Rev. r. B. Drane.
They were accompanied by Hon. J.
w. Albertson, the brides uncle, and
a small party of friends. Quite num-
Der of Edentonians, hearing of the
intended marriage, were present to
witness the ceremony When we
first heard of the intention of the
contracting parties to come te Eden
ton we thought it might be another
of those little remances in which the
parent was figuring to the extent Of
formidable opposition but, not so.
They came to Edenton because there
was no Episcopal minister either in
E. City or, Hertford, at the time, and
like good church people and good
Carolinians they preferred to be mar
ried by minister of their own faith
and order and according to the laws
of their own State. God bless them,
we like them for it.

Brought Them to Their Senses.

An exchange says the Farmers
Alliance seems to have brought the
jute bagging gently to their senses.
Capt. Alexander SAYS the trust has
offered to sell bagging at 81 cents on
time and pay the farmers two dollars
more per ton for all their cotton seed
than is offered at any Of the oil mills.
This is on condition that the farmers
will return to the use of jute bagging.
1t is very evident from this PROPOSE
ton, what others have before seen.
that the trust has found out that it
was destroying its own business. If
the farmers should accept the pro
position they would again put them
selvs into the power of the jute
dealers and it would not be a long
time before these latter would make
another effort to gouge them. The
farmers will not do such an unwise
act.

DIR. WOOD EEECTED,

DR.. William r. Wood, a native
of Plymouth, now, of Halifax was
elected, by the Board of Directors of
the Insane Asylum, to succeed DR..
Eugene Grissom. The News and
Observer says there were about IS
applicants for the place DR.. Geo.
A. Foote, of Warrenton, was strong.
ly endorsed but, he declinded to be
candidate for the position.
DR.. Wood has been for years
chairman of the State Medical Ex-
amining Board. He was captain of
Company G. of the first North Caro-
lima cavalry in the army, in which
position he was severely wounded,
and being untitled for active service
became an army surgeon in the field.
He is Sc years of age and since the
war he has resided at Scotland Neck
where he has been a regular practic-
ing physician. His first wife was
Miss Mollie Daughtry, of Washing
ton county. His second and present
wife was Miss Anthony, sister Of
Brigadier General Anthony and also
of Maj. Spier Whitaker of this city.
After DR.. Woods election we could
no reasonbly entertain any hope for
our esteemed friend DR.. B. w.
Hathaway, who was prominently
mentioned in connection with the
position of Assistant, especially as
both were from the same section-Dr
Hathaway living in Bertie and DR..
Wood in Halifax. 1t would have
been bad policy to have taken two
men from the same district. If
former Boards had been blessed with
the same mind, DR.. Grissom would
never have been in because, DR.. Full
Ter, already in, and DR.. Grissom were
from the same county, Granville, and
had he never been chosen the State
would have been saved the expense
of much money and great mortifica-
ton.

OUR MAN ABOUT TOWN! !
WHAT HE SEES AND HEARS DURING
THE WEEK.

Worn by the cares and labors of
the printing Office, tired Of being in
terrogated by the DEVIL as touching
this. that and the other thing con-
tanned in some MSS. strange to him
and written in hand which seems
intended more q punishment to the

About Town seeks the hustings for
relief and finds it happy diversion.
First at Woodard Bros. store, on
King Street. nearly opposite the
Bank. This establishment is the
largest in town and, though lately
opened, is commanding trade which
outweighs the expectation of it's
founders. Goods are sold here by
wholesale as we'll as retail at salts
factory prices. Mr.. James A. and
Mr.. Earnest Woodard are in charge,
assisted by Mr., Williams. who to-
gather, allow no customer to leave
them dissatisfied. This is an excel
lent establishment and reflects credit
upon the owners and the business of
the town.
From this store we go to the Bank

ployed by all,
Crossing the street, we halt at DR..
w. j. Leary's Drug Store to find the
DR., in his usual flow of spirits. Al.
though the DR.. is old in years, he is
as young in hope, personal activity
and business zeal as any young man Of
the county. His store Is on the
corner of Main and King streets, one
of the best sites for business house
of any kind in Edenton. His dis
pensary is we'll supplied and, being
q physician of long experience, his
time is we'll occupied in consultation
and in compounding.
Leaving the Dr's. we stop at the
Express Office kept by Mr.. M. F,
Bond, one of Edenton's popular clti-
zens, who is always ready to accomo-
date and ever present at his post,
doing most excellent service for his
company. Mr.. Bond is also q tele-
graph operator at this end of the
Edenton and Norfolk line and, as
such, gives most complete satisfac-

Passing up the street from this lat

occupancy of the Bay View. He
will continue his merchantile busi-

keep in his employ Mr.. Robert

hundred pounds each. The potatoes
sold for the top price. and when he re-

and other expenses had consumed the
entire proceeds of sale, leaving the

Geo. Curtis, the farther of William
Henry and Robert Curtis, who are
now confined in the county Jail at
Portsmouth, Va, has handed Justice
Rutter paper with the confession
of his two sons, which admits the
killing Of Mr.. Waller. 1t states
thatls.. Robert knocked him down
while Henry killed him, after which
a man named Travers stuck his head
full of holes with an ice pick. Then
they all three put him between the
beds and set it on fire. The 9th

It is an item in feeding stock to AVOID

CT the keeping of more stock; and, prop

More than twenty counties in Kansas
have each this year raised a larger corn
crop than all the New England States
confined.
Farmers who thought it would not pay
20 raise tomatoes at twenty cents q bushel
delivered at the canning factory. are be-
ginning to change their minds. This has
proved about their best paying crop this
year. They get the money for it, too, at
the time when there is no other crop that
an be profiiably placed in the market
There will probably be a big tomato crop
planted next year in this viclnity.-Osags

FARM NOTES.

The rich black liquid that flows of from
the barn-yard contains the wealth of the
farm. Use absorbent material and save it.
One advantage in stalking your trees
when they are first set out is straighter
growth can thus be obtained, and there is
also less danger of the wind loosening the
roots or blowing the trees down.
All plants that are set out in the fall for
| a permanent patch, such as raspberries,
blackberries, etc, should be cut back to
within six inches of the roots. Canes that
are left on will be of no advantage next
season.
In feeding wheat, corn. oats, buckwhe at
or other cereal grain, throw it down
the litter of the poultry house, cover it
up, and thus make the hens work for thsir
living. The exercise thereby gained is an
important factor to prolific egg produc-
ton.
Instead OF exposing the corn fodder in
the fields it should be stored under cover
as soon as dry enough, and it would be an
advantage to have it in the barn before it
gets wet, which, however, is not always
possible, but the less exposure to rain the
better.
One principal reason why house plants
often do not make a thrifty growth is
that the air is too dry and warm. By
keeping a vessel of water on the stove
this can, in a great measure, be avoided;
and b. airing whenever the weather will
permit better results are possible.
1t is claimed that if a grape vineyard is
plowed to the depth of four or five
inches very late in the fall in a thorough
manner, so as to turn all of the grapes and
leaves that have fallen completely under,
the rot may be prevented the next season,
as the fungus does not live for more than
a year in the berries.
1t would pay to build good roads from a
strictly financial consideration and if done
by taxation would bs good investment
for the citizens of the country in an in
creased value of the country. The in
crease in the value of the property and
real estate would amount very much
more than the cot of the Ioids-Rural
World
Flows and other tools should not be left
out or stored away with no protection tc
the polished parts. a few minutes work
will put a coat of paint or varnsh over
them. and often save hours of work in
getting them in condition in the spring.
There is plenty of time now to do all that
is necessary, while in the spring work is
pressing.
If new garden is to be made, or
change made in the old one, so that new
ground is to be taken in, so far as possible
the work should be done in the fall, so
that plenty of time can be had to get
sufficient amount OF available plant food
incorporated with the soil. The manure
applied must be thoroughly rotted and
fined, and then we'll incorporated with the
soil, SO that the soluble portions can be
reached by the roots of the plants.
