a STARTLING DISCOVERY
Made by the LandIady of the
CouPtView House.

Yesterday morning the landlady of
the Courtview house, on Fifth street
south, made the startling discovery that
James Wynn, one of her best-known
Doarders, was a corpse. Not hearing
from him, she went to the room to see
what the matter was, when the body
was found lying on the bed cold in
death. There were no signs OF vio-
lence, and the face bore a calm and
peaceful expression, as though death
came easily. Deceased had been i'll for
some time, and he was heard to say that
he would not live the week out. He
was about forty years of age, and was
employed at the Excelsior mill.
Coroner Spinney decided that death
was due to natural causes, and no in
quest will be held.

tiiiery Mandamus Case.
If the Kentucky & Western Distilling
company wants the city to turn on its
water it must pay up the S3S7.32 back
rent due to the city from the former
tenant of the property. Judge Canty
so decided yesterday morning after
hearing the arguments on the
mandamuS obtained by the diStilling
company to show cause why the water
works department should not turn on
the water. The attorneys for the dis
tillery company claimed that it was not
liable for the water tax owed by
former tenant and that such tax was
not lien against the property, and that
therefore the city was compelled to fur
nish the property with water. Judge
Canty held that the city could withhold
the water supply until the rent due
was paid.

The secretary Of the Warren county
fair writes us that the prospects are
good for an unusually successful exhi-
bition this year. Already active pre-
parations are being made in this direc-
tod and our neighbors. will exert them
selves to make it one best yet held.
And the Warrenton fairs have always
been among the best in the State in
point of excellence of the individual
exhibits, if not as varied and extensive
as some others. The fair this year
will be held October 25th, Goth and
9th. Among other attractions we note
of Oxford, has been engaged to give
an exhibition each day of the marvellous
feats of his wonderful 10 months old
trick colt Black Bess. This remark
able boy and his still more remark
able colt are now in great demand
throughout the State, having engage
ments to attend nearly all the fairs
and stock shows, and they prove a
most pleasing feature. The ladies and
children especially are charmed with
the wonderful intelligence and marve-
lous performances of this little colt.
OF course Vance county will be well
represented by numbers of her citizens
while they are not debarred from
making exhibits Of their farm and
garden products, fine stock, needle
work, art and fancy articles ofall kinds
in competition for the premiums offered.
We hope our people will contribute
largely to the success Of the Warrenton
fair. They are cordially invited to do
so at any rate.

JUDGE JACOB BATTLE.

Judge Henry G. Conner having
rendered his resignation to take effect
on the 10th inst, Gov Carr has ap-
pointed Mr.. Jacob Battle, of Rocky
Mount, to fill the vacancy thus created.
The cause of Judge Connor's resigna-
ton is insufficiency of pay. He can
make more practicing law than he gets
as salary for his services on the bench.
The Raleigh correspondent of the
Charlotte Obserrer says this of Judge
Battle:
1t is an excellent appointment, all
agree. Judge Battle, whose family is
one Of the best known and most
intellectual in the State, is Al years
old. In 1866 he entered the University
and two years later entered the
University of Virginia, where he
graduated in 1872 with the highest
honors, being one of the few North
Carollnians who ever took the full
degree of NJ. A. there. He is an able
lawyer and for years has been the
partner of Congressman Bum. His
only public service was in the last
Senate, when he served as chairman of
the committee on education.
