WILL MOVE TO NEWBERN.
Mr.. Frank Hege and His. Poultry and
Pet Animal Farm.

Mr.. Frank E. Hege, of Salem, the
noted breeder CT fancy poultry and
pet animals, tells THE SENTINEL
that he has decided to move his little
farm to Newbern. He will not leave
here, however, before the first of next
November Mr.. William Dunn, of
Newbern, has purchased half inter
est in the business The ohrm name
will be f. e. Hege s. Co.
The Journal says that Mr.. Hege
will reside and have his interesting
little farm on a portion of the truck
farm owned eby Mr.. Dunn, on the
banks of Neuse river, just beyond the
city limits. The Journal adds; GA
cottage will be erected for Mr.. Hege's
residence, near where the buildings
now on the farm stand, and six acres
adjacent win be divided by wire cloth
into breeding pens 25x15O feet. The
greater number of these pens will run
outward $50 feet on each side OF CEN
trail avenue but some will be upon
cross avenue and lie at right angles
with the others. The arrangement
is very tasty one. Everything will
be constructed in the very best man
ner possible and in the very best style
"Mr. Bege has, in the past, had
quite a full and varied stock of the
choicest varieties of poultry, pheas-
ants, ETC., useful breeds of dogs and
pet ones; rabbits in great variety, and
other pets. He and Mr.. Dunn intend
to keep, not only all that Mr.. Hege
has bred heretofore, but to add others
so as to make their business well
nigh a complete one in its line.
"The location of the farm is one of
the best for the business. Mr. Dunn
is sound, sensible business man who
has always made success of what he
has undertaken and Mr.. Hege is a
breeder of large experience, good
business man and clever gentleman.
We look for naught but great success
to the farm"

Lumber Placed There by the Senate
Senator Sherman Speaks.

WAsHINGToN, June 1.-The lumber
schedule was completed yesterday,
lumber being placed on the free list.
The sugar schedule was then taken up
Mr.. Sherman speaking against the
bill with special reference to this
schedule. 1t has been understood for
week that the Republicans would
form coalition with dissatisfied Dem
ocrats and fight the sugar schedule OF
the proposed tariff bill more strongly
than any portion of the bill. The al.
lege0zeonferences between members
ttile Huance committee and repre-
scnGatfxes of the sugar trust have di
rected especial attention to this por
ti0n of the tariff.

STANDING BY GROVER.
Senator WalthalI Urges the Unity of
Democrats.

MEMPHIS, May 30.-The Commercial
publishes an open letter from Senator
E. g. Walthall, of Mississippi, in
which he urges the Democrats to
stand together in the support of the
Cleveland administration. Although
he is in favor of the free coinage of
silver, Senator Walthall, says he be-
lieves it is suicidal for Democrats to
fall out and fight over the financial
question when there are so many 9th
er questions of equal Importance
the tariff, for instance, now to be act
ed upon.
In closing his letter he makes a
strong plea for party unity. The con-
tinued supremacy of the Democratic
party in the Southern States is of par
amount Importance, he says, and
Democrats should bury side issues and
support the President.

CHAFIN's DIsTILLERY BURNED
About 1900 Gallons of Whislkey De-
stroyed-No Insurance.

6trOySU-NO insurance.
The large Government distlllery,
owned and operated just East of Win
ston, by Mr.. George Chain, was COM
pletely destroyed by fire last week
The fire was first discovered about
eleven O'Clock but it had gained such
headway that all efforts to save the
property from destruction were at
once seen to be futile.
AS soon as the blaze struck the
whiskey storage room it naturally
burned rapidly.
Alarms were turned in from both
Winston and Salem but as soon as the
fire was located it was decided that
the companies could accomplish moth
ing by going to the scene. The large
blaze, however, attracted a number of
people who claim that the burning of
the ardent spirits as they ran down
the branch was quite an attraction.
Mr.. Chain is Of the opinion that
the fire originated in the engine
house. He had not cent of inSur-
ance on either building, fixtures or the
| whiskey (about 200 gallons) destroy
ed. His loss is several thousand.
Several darkieS who were in attend
| ance did not get left. While the
burning whiskey was running down
| the stream they managed to dip up
| some OF it with two gallon SlOp keg.
After tanning out the blaze with
their old hats they went off and

said it was tgood, pure and unadulter'
