The Rocky Mount Improvement Com
pany Is in 1t.
In calling attention to the ADVERTISE
ment of the Rocky Mount Improvement
company we wish to say that Rocky
Mount is now about to enter on a career
of substantial progress. Most extensive
railroad shops are to be at once erected
there, and that town is to become a most
important point. 1t will be the meeting
point of the northern and southern di.
visions of the Coast Line. There will be
two miles of switch yards, and some fifty
tracks on which will be shifted the cars
for their respective destinations. \
large accession to the population will at
once take place when these works are
put in operation.
Besides the resources of the Rocky
Mount section are yearly becoming more
important. All that region is much
more prosperous than formerly the in
PRODUCTION of tobacco and trucking has
changed the face of the country.
The Rocky Mount Cotton Mills are
among the most successful in the South.
And the progress of the town is substan-
tial. There is no boom" in it, but yer.
liable progress. The Rocky Mount I'm.
provement company will furnish infor.
nation to all who desire it.

Loss by Fire.

The large barD on the farm of MOTIFS
Dunbar situated about two miles from
Elkton on the Newark road was totally
destroyed by fire together with its con-
tents on Friday afternoon. At the out
break of the fire about H.. 80 the only
person present was Nellie Simmons a
young girl who noticed dense volume
of smoke issuing from the building.
She ran and liberated horse. By this
time help had arrived but they only
succeeded in saving few farming
IMPLEMENTS. A hay rack near by was
also consumed.
TIE barn contained 40 tons of hay, 225
bushels of wheat. 800 bushels of oats,
corn, and other provender, and also a
reaper, wagons, etc. The loss is roughly
estimated at $4,000, partially covered BY
a policy IN the Farmers & Mechanics
Mutual of Cecil.
The burned buildings were situated to
the east of the house and fortunately the
wind was blowing from the west, other
wise the loss would have been still more
serious.

McClenahan & Bro, having received
permission from the county commiss

purpose of laying large pipe to drain
the quarry which is now twenty FIVE feet

They have build bridge over the cut
and travel was rot delayed in the least.
The above firm has been SO busy that
they ara running the crushers at night
in order to supply the demand for ballast

demand for cut stone as this and are
employing a very large number Of
granite cutters.

remember that big fire in Hotel Row, one
freezing night, when fifteen people were
pulled out of their burning rooms and
came down the ladder in their night clothes;
and how Dick Greene brought down two
kids at once-one in his arms, the other
slung to his back? Poor 'Dick'l He got
the catarrh dreadfully, from SO much ex'
posture, and suffered from it five years or
more. We thought once he was 90 ing
in consumption, sure. But, finally, lie
heard of DIR. Sage's Catarrh Remedy, and
tried it, and it cured him up as sound as a
