On Wednesday OF last week, after
we had gone to press, our loved and
distinguished townsman, Judge Geo
p. Smoote, died suddenly. We took
out other matter and gave account
of his life, was FIRST paper to give the
sad news; he was 62, instead of 81
years of age, as stated. Judge
Smoote was beloved by everybody
always kind and obliging he won the
hearts of all; no one ever heard him
speak evil Of anybody-was always
charitable, modest and self sacrific-
ing. AS mark Of respect, the bus
mess houses and school closed, to
attend the funeral ohsequies, and the
Methodist church would not hold
half the large throng. Rev. II. b.
Scruggs preached the funeral. All
feel the loss OF such good man.

fact that the place to go for anything
to wear, whether for ladies or gentle
men, girls or boys, is d. &. Hicks 4

DIR. G.. A. ROCKET KILLED.

Friday, at O'Clock p. M, Horace
Y. Written shot and killed DR.. g.
A. Rocket, at Bodcaw, in this coun,
ty, Particulars, as we get them,
are about as follows: About two
months ago the two men had fight,
on account of Written running into
and breaking road cart of DR..
Rocket. An old grudge existed
prior to this fight. Friday, Written
walked into l. II, Mack's store with
his shot gun, speaking to the crowd,
in which was Rocket, as he went i'm
laid gun away awhile, then picking
it up, remarked to Rocket, Nov is
a good time to settle that fuss and
shot him in the left side, the whole
load of bucllshot taking effect, pro-
ducing death Immediately. DR..
Rocket was standing III door of the
store. After the shooting Written
backed out of the door, telling the
crowd not to bother him, made his
escape, and has not been seen since.
There are conflicting reports, some
say there was no excuse for the kill
ing and that it was murder, while
others say it was done partially in
self-defense, that DR.. Rocket had
threatened Whtten's life. Both
men had families. DR.. Rocket mar
ried only a short time ago. 1t is a
deplorable affair Let the relatives
on both sides keep quiet, and permit
the law to take its course.

Two Miles a Day by Rail.

Some Illustrations OF modern railway
speed cited before the parliamentary
committee on the cross country railway
bill merit special attention, showing
what can be accomplished when q rail
way company makes an effort. A Bux-
ton coal merchant says that sometimes
the Midland company manages to con
yey coal from Buxton to Chesterfield in
eleven to thirty-four days, and as the
towns are more than twenty miles apart
it will be seen that sometimes the coal
trains dash along the line at the rate of
two miles a day. Once the witness
found q birds nest in a truck which had
been thirty days on the way, and he
reasonably believes that the nest was
built and the eggs laid during the
month. Yet this Buxton merchant is
not happy and desires a change.-En-
cheering.

Begged the Dead Mans Pardon,

a curious scene was witnessed at the
funeral of David Ruben, a prominent
paWnbroker. Ruben started in business
five years ago with \. Kline. Business
falling off last winter the firm dissolved.
\ few weeks later Kline rented quarters
next to the old place and startedin oppo-
sition to Ruben, and went around ask
ing the ~latter's customers for their bust
ress. This SO preyed on Ruben's mind
that he was taken sick and died of ty-
phoid fever, and his funeral took place
from an undertaker's establishment.
When the friends were all assembled, to
the surprise of everybody Kline walked
into the room, and advancing to the cot
fin humbly begged tue pardon of the
dead man for the injury he had done
him. Those present We're deeply affect
ad.-Helena Cor. st. Louis Republic.

Some months ago Samuel Mating, OF
this city, was run down by 4 switch en-
CINE and instantly killed. He had no
relatives here, but had a sister some
where in the west, Of whom nothing had
been heard for years. Yesterday Post
master Jenkinson received a letter from
the sister. who lives near Davenport, Ia,
asking for information as TO her brother,
and stating thai she had dreamed that
her brother had been killed in an acci-
dent and had felt worried over the mat
ter, So she determined to write and learn
if something had happened 10 him. Par
ticulars were sent to her today Of the
death Of her brother"

4 Word About Dress Goods and
what Is to Efe Wcrn.

1t is safe to say that Dress Goods
is & subject that is now agitatlng the
minds OF the trading public in view
Of the approaching autumn season.
Doubtless many = perusing the
leading fashion magazines and &C.
%quainting themselves with the best
information as to what will be worn,
the cost Of the goods, etc, so that
good taste and economy will be hap
PLY blended. Adaptability is one Of
the prerequisites Of dress. Ofcourse
what would suit one lady would not
suit another. This idea has been
fully carried out in the selection Of
our Dress Goods for the fall trade.
Attend our opening on Monday, Sep
TENDER p, and see If the correct
things in Dress Goods will not be
shown IN the way of rich Plalds and
Stripes, and attractive things in
rough effects which are now in vogue
Polka Dots, Camels' Hair, English
Scrges, Bedford Cords, Diagonal8,
Fancy Robes, Broad cloths, Plain
Henricttas, etc. Over 100 dress pat
terms, positively no two alike. With
confidence we believe our stock will
please you and a hearty welcome is
extended to attend our opening.
