Care of tho Wardrobe.

The lone dreas and wear it" plan, though
in some respects good one, is not by any
means the most truly economical. For in
stance, there is no saving in wearing ones
street gown during the hours at home. It is
better after the visit or shopping expedi-
tion. both for comfort and economy. to ex-
change the toilet that Is dusty for clean
robe. 1t Is scarcely possible to come in
from an excursion Of any kind in dainty
order, SO in the interest Of her personal
charms a woman should get rid of her
street costume as soon rs may be after she
arrives at home. The garment should be
thoroughly busted, shaken, pressed and
hung upon hook in a closet. Occasionally
touch the soiled spots with benzine and ex-
anime the seams for broken stitches. Never
wear n woolen gown In the kitchen. 1t re-
tains odors and smoke and soon becomes
offensive as well as shabby. 1t Is saving
in the end to have fair and inclement
weather costumes straight through. Even

1t is the same with shoes. It's pity TO

Glass Curtains.

Glass curtains are novelty in art indus
Try for house furnishings, according to an
English paper. They are shown in Paris
and have the effect Of stained glass when
hung. They are made up OF little squares
of colored glass, each set in small frame
of zinc. the squares joined to each other at
the four corners by small hooks. This
hinging of the pieces gives them a certain
pliability, in effect at least. and they have
the virtue Of easy cleansing and simple ad-
justment to various sizes of windows by
increasing or decreasing the number Of
squares.

SERIOUS CUTTING SCRAPE
Prominent Citizens of Henry County,
Va, in Difficulty.

Particulars of serious difficulty in
Martinsyille, Va, on the 14th inst,
have been received here. The row
was between John Burgess and his
son, Foster Burgess, on the one hand,
and John Price on the other.
1t appears that Price has been rent
ing land from the elder Burgess and
some trouble in regard to the future
disposition Of the land sprung up be-
tween them. They both attended
court Monday, and late in the after
noon they were discussing the land
business, which discussion led to
fight. Foster Burgess, seeing his
father in a fight, ran to his assistance,
whereupon Price stabbed him in the
abdomen, inf1lcting a serious and pos
sibly fatal wound. He also cut John
Burgess in the breast, driving the
knife to the bone, but this wound is
not considered serious.
After doing the cutting Price fled,
but was quickly caught aud lodged in
jail.
All the men are well-known citizens
Of Henry county, and John Burgess
was for a number of years a mem Der
of the board of supervisors and was al
so member of the board of school
trustees.

DAVIS SCHOOL CADETS
To Take a Free Trip to the National
Capital.

Travellers say the most beautiful
city in the world is Washington City
the capital of the United States.
Perhaps at no other city in the new
world is there SO much of interest to
be seen. The magnificent Capitol,
the White HOuse-the home Of the
President, the Patent Office, Treasury
Department, the renowned Smith
sOniOn Institute, the great Art Gal
lery, the lofty Washington Monu-
ment, the Navy Yard, and the various
departments of the government.
Some time ago the cadets of Davis
Military School attended the great
State Exposition at Richmond, Va.
Among the pleasant events of the
visit was the Review of the Cadet
Battalion by Gen. Fitzhugh Lee Gov
ernor of Virginia. The review took
place on the famous grounds surround
ing the Capital of the Old Dominion.
The entire visit was full of enjoyment
for the soldier boys. During the com
ing session of the Davis Military
School the cadets will visit Washing
ton City, where they will spend a few
days. Congress will be in session at
the time of the visit. This will be
not only an occasion of great enjoy
ment for the cadets, but one of great
profit The cadets will go on spe-
cial train from Winston to Washing
ton City. The entire expenses will be
paid by the Davis Military School.
The cadets will be at no expense
whatever. The next session of Davis
Military School will begin Sept. eth.
Register containing full particulars
will be mailed on application. Adj

SERIOUS CUTTING SCRAPE
4 Davie Farmers Throat cut frora
Ear to Ear.

A citizen of Davie county was in
Winston Friday and told of a serious
cutting scrape that occurred near
Callahan few days ago.
1t appears that Mr.. Calvin Kesler,
who lives near the county line, settled
with his hired man, one Bates. After
the settlement kesler asked Bates to
go with him to his bottom land to
look at his corn and meadow. A few
hours afteTward Kesler appeared at
the house of Mr.. NJ. Goodby, neigh
Dor, with his throat cut and his cloth
ing wet. He was unable to speak but
made signs for writing materials and
wrote out statement to the effect
that Bates had hit him on the head,
cut his throat and thrown him into
the creek. His throat was cut from
one ear to the other. DR.. John An
dersOn was SummJned and admins
tered to the wounded man. He sew
ed up the large cash, but yesterday
morning the wound was swollen so
that the threads had to be cut.
When questioned closely Kesler was
not positive that it was Bates who
assaulted him, but he believes it was
Bates. Bates was arrested and de-
MED the whole business. However,
he was sent to jail at Mocksville to
await the result of Keslers injuries.
There is considerable mystery
about the matter. Kesler's family
says he and Bates had no disturbance
before leaving the house and that the
settlement between them was salts
factory and passed off pleasantly.
keSler can give no account of the
trouble except that he charges Bates
with assaulting him, as stated, and
thus the matter stands.

boys return back to see the swarm of

quit and not do that this other boy
came to my house and told me that he
had found a swan of bees hanging on
a linn not very far from Gold hill and
/ went and hive the bees and after
the bees being hive the neighbor boys
came up also to hive the bees claim
ing that they had found them first
and after servel months had passed |

should be one of the neighbor boys
sayes to me that he did throw rocks
at the linn that the bees was on and
he told me that he thought it was a

LACK OF CURRENCY
Causes the Peoples Bank to Suspend
Temporarily.

The Peoples National Bank sus-
pended payment temporarily Friday
morning owing to the impossibility of
getting currency to transact the days
business. There were balances due
the bank at Richmond and other
cities, but the currency could not be
obtained from the bank there.
The announcement took our people
somewhat by surprise, as the bank
was known to be in good condition;
besides, it has been carefully manag-
ed, and every remittance and every
collection is paid up to date. The
trouble is like that of merchant who
has not on hand the goods ordered
of him.
