The biggest thing in he history of
Henderson as Tobacco Market, will
be the grand opening sale OF Fine Re-
dried Bright Tobaccos at the Storage
Warehouse, July 3lst, 1890.
At least 1000 hogsheads of Fine
Wrappers. Cutters and Smokers will
be sold at public auction, and as much
more will be offered if there shall be
demand for it.
This will be the largest sale of Bright
Tobaccos ever offered to the trade at
one time on any market, and such an
opportunity to purchase direct from
first hands, should not fail to attract
the attention of Manufacturers and
Dealers from every part of the United
States.
These Tobaccos will be sampled by
"a bonded Inspector and every package
will be fully guaranteed.
No Tobacco grown in the known
world surpasses that produced in the
territory of which Henderson is the
chief market. In point of color, text
ure and flavor the Bright Yellow To-
bacco indigenous to the country tribu-
tary to and from which this market
draws its support, is unsurpassed for
cigarettes and smoking purposes, while
as wrappers for the finer grades of
plug it has always been preferable to
any other. Indeed, Henderson has
become famous as the home of the
Finest Tobacco on the globe.
That such sale will draw together
the largest number Of Tobacco men
ever seen anywhere on a similar occa-
sion admits Of no doubt. No such OPP
portunity for manufacturers of plug or
smoking tobacco or cigarettes to get
just what they want right where it is
grown to greatest perfection, has ever
presented itself before.
The Henderson Storage Warehouse
is the only one of the kind in the State,
and this will be the first inspection sale
of Tobacco ever held in North Carolina.
Tobacco men from everywhere are
invited. Come, and we will make it
profitable as well as pleasant to be
with us.
A cordial invitation is extended and
a friendly welcome will be given to all.
Come. # you are interested in To-
bacco in any way ouwill find it great
ly to your interest to be here Thursday.
July 31st, and as long as the sales may
continue.
For sale, a good buggy. In good order,
and will be sold cheap. Apply at this Of

Crops in Wilson.

Mr.. A. G. Finch writes the GOLD LEAF
from Wilson county under date of the
10Th inst, as follows: Notwithstanding
the month of June being very dry, not
enough rain having fallen at one time to
wet a man in his shirt sleeves, we have
the best crops of tobacco l ever saw.
Since the first of July we have had rain
enough to put the crop to what it is.
Many have commenced curing and much
of our tobacco will be ready for market
early this season. Cotton, corn, peas,
&C., are also good and the farmers are
greatly encouraged and in fine spirits
over the promising outlook"

Competitive Drill.

The competitive drill of the Vance
Guards at Burwell Hall last night was
witnessed by large number of specta-
tors. The soldiers were in good form
and they entered the contest with spirit
and earnestness. They were drilled in
squads of four by Lieut.. Moss, Messrs.
George Field and John S. f. Young
acting as judges. One after another
the men were put out on some error
until Messrs. R. E. Dean, Fritz Cheek,
j. S. Poythress, E. w. Harper, Lewis
Gregory and J. S. Dunn were left as
the sole representatives Of their respec-
tive squads. Three Of these were then
taken and two were relieved, leaving
Dunn. Then came the remaining three
and Gregory was the fortunate man who
was not commanded to step aside. The
contest then narrowed down to Dunn
and Gregory and for awhile it was very
close between them. Dunn was de-
clared the winner of the prize, a hand
some gold medal, amidst burst of APP
plause. Gen. w. II. Cheek delivered
the medal in neat and appropriate
little speech and the exercises were at
an end.
The ease, readiness and precision
with which the soldiers went through
the various evolutions of arms showed
the careful training that they have re-
ceived at the hands of their superior
officers, and speaks we'll for the interest
the men indi vidually take in their
duties and the pride they feel in the
welfare and reputation of the company.

A Ten Strike for Henderson.

The Oxford Day copied paragraph
from the last issue of the GOLD LEAF
about the big sale of tobacco to take
place at the Henderson Storage Ware
house July 31st, and took occasion to
commend the wisdom of our business
men in establishing such an enterprise
here. This called forth communica-
ton from some writer in the Day, from
which we make the following extract.
The writer says:
rate this As one of the wisest and
most timely enterprises that has been
made in North Carolina in many a day
certainly in connection with our to-
bacco interests. Undoubtedly it is a
ten strike for Henderson, and she de-
serves praise for taking the lead and
doing this much towards identifying
North Carolina tobacco with Notrh
Carolina markets.
