backward spring. Cotton and corn are
in fair condition.

The English Sparrow.

Close observation shows, says an ex-
change, that the English sparrOws are
rapidly decreasing in number and that
their utter determination is only a
question of time. Pot hunters, air
guns and other devices to catch and
kill these birds are fast doing their
work of devastation, making it certain
that these pestiferous little birds will
become extinct.
We do not think so. The English
sparrow is the most prolific of all birds,
and instead of becoming extinct they
are fast increasing. We have observed
that they do not confine themselves to
towns as much as formerly, though,
and have now taken to the country in
large numbers. Perhaps that accounts
for their apparent gradual extinction.

Meeting Of the North Carolina
Press Association.

The next meeting of the North Coro-
lima Press Association will be held in
Charlotte Wednesday and Thursday
July 9th and 2Sth. 1t is unnecessary
to add that the entertainment by the
Queen City will be truly royal, and that
she wants every editor in North Caro-
lima to come.
Every editor and publisher in North
Carolina ought to be a member of the
Association. All of us should take
interest and pride in our organization
and attend the annual meetings. The
meetings for the past few years have
been highly successful ones, and are
attended by the leading State editors.
We think the meeting in Charlotte
will be the largest ever held.
am now perfecting arrangements
for an excursion to Washington and
New York, particulars of which will
be announced when the arrangements
are completed. The convention will
be in session two days, and the excur-
sion will be taken Immediately after
its adjournment. 1t may be added
that the privileges of the excursion will
be open only to those editors who
attend the meeting at Charlotte. For
obvious reasons this is imperative.

Corner Stone Laid.

The cOlored Free Masons of the
town laid the corner stone Of their new
Mason Hall last Monday, July 4th.
The ceremonies were witnessed by a
large crowd but there were not as MANY
visitors as had been expected. Oxford
kittrell, Durham and Warrenton were
representeded. After laying the cor.
ner stone the procession repaired to
Burwell Hall to hear the Grafton OF
Prof. w. G.. Pearson, District Deputy
Grand Master, of Durham. His adj
dress we are told was very able
and admirable one, and greatly enjoyed
by those who heard it. At night there
was a large crowd present and the
participants in the affair did credit to
themselves and the cause for which
they were laboring. They realized
$l3l.OO, which speaks we'll for the
management and literally off eur colored
friends. Three grand prizes were
awarded to persons selling the largest
number of tickets. The first prize
was silver watch, the second fine
rocking chair and the third a gold dol
lar. The successful compititors were
Bette Hawkins, Lucy Reavis and
Agnes Burwell.
There's a patent medicine which is rot
a patent neutrality-suspicious. as that
may sound. It's discovery! the golden
discovery of medical science It's the
medicine for you tired, rundown, ex-
hausted, nerve-wasted men and women
for you sufferers from diseases of skin or
scalp, liver or lungs-its chance is with
every one, its season always, because il
aims to purify the fountain of life-the
blood-upon which all such diseases de-
pend. The medicine is DR.. Pierce S Golden
Medical Discovery. The makers of it
have enough confidence in it to sell it on
trial. That is-you can get it from youl
druggist, and if it dOsen't do what it S
claimed to do, you can get your money
back, every cent of it.
That's what its makers call taking the
risk of their words.
Tiny, little, sugar-coated granules, are
what DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are.
