THE DANVILLE MARKET.
The Registers Review of the Week
Ending Sept. Sth.


For the week ending Saturday even
ing, the transaction in tobacco at the
eleven loose leaf warehouses, were
very good for this season of the year.
While the receipts were not large,
still they were large enough to keep
the warehousemen and buyers en-
gagged up to the noon hour each day.
The offerings consisted mainly of nom
descript and common tobaccos, good
deal of it being funked and damaged,
the whole being interspersed with
few piles of new. There was strong
er tone in the market, with slight
advance on some goods. Wrappers,
good to fine, were active and firm
while the common to medium grades
showed some stiffening. Filters were
steady and active, there was moder-
ate supply of smokers and small sup
ply of cutters. Each Of these grades
showed some stiffening in price.
New tobacco the past week sold
well, particularly good leaf, some of
which sold from 1880 to $40 per hun
dred. The sales at the eleven loose
leaf warehouses for the week amount
ed to 514, 795 pounds. Manufacturers
had tolerably good week, the aggre-
gate shipments of plug and twist
amounting to 118,635 pounds. The
daily sales of revenue stamps aggre-
gated S7,118.13.

quite interesting and afforded a rare
opportunity for spectators in attend

quite number of people away.
a nun Der of the races were close
and created much excitement.
Fitzsimmons, of Greensboro, carried

boys bore off anumber of good prizes
There were only two entries in the
one mile novice-Will Brewer and
Samuel Rights. Brewer won the race
and was awarded tie priZe-a gold

3:05,
The one mile Forsyth county cham
] nionShip race was not run. Charlie
Beck, who now wears that honor, was
not feeling lat his best" and would
not enter with John Dean, the only
one who essayed to contest with him.
The one-half mile (bOys under six
teen) had only two entries Weldon
Hardgrove and Oscar Hege. Hard
grove was the winner, making the
one-half mile in one minute and 33

Fitzsimmons, Temple, McMakin,
Dean and Beck were the contestants
in the one mile open. FitZSi n mons
was the winner of the first prize. He
made the run in minutes and % sec
ondS. Temple and Dean received I'd
and 3rd prizes.
In this race quite serious accident
befell McMakin. His handle bars
broke off and threw him violently to
the ground. Charlie Beck was close
behind, and in order to miss McMakin
and not collide with some other rider,
turned his wheel down the steep en-
bankment. Beck was not hurt but
McMakin sustained quite severe
bruises and was badly skinned up.
Frank Hege was victor in the mar
ried mems local. There were only
two contestants. Frank made the
mile in 3 minutes and % seconds.
The most exciting race of the even
ing was the One-half mile open. The
entries were FitZsimmOnS, Beck and
Temple. Up to within a few feet of the
goal it seemed that Beck would beat
FitZsimmOns: but suddenly "FitZ"
made one of his ''spurtS" and stepped
ahead, beating Beck by not more than
a foot.
The last race was the five mile
handicap. The entries were FItZSlm-
mons, McMakin, Beck, Oyler, Detmar
and Dean. The excessive heat made
the run an unusually difficult one.
Several of the contestants dropped
out Dean and Detmar gave Up on
the 18th round. Beck was in the race
and bid fair to get at least the second
prize but on the 10th round he gave
up and stopped. He was completely
overcome.
McMakIn, Fitzsimmons and Oyler
persevered and respectfully won the
three prizes. McMakin made the run
in Is minutes and 40 seconds.
The racers had group photo taken
just before they entered the tive-mile
race.

The chairman Of Brother Char
ley's" faction held caucus here Sat
urday with several Of the "brethren. T."
The matters of putting outa comfy
ticket, calling d convention, ETC., were
discussed
Reynolds is quoted as saying that
it would not do to nominate Dr..
tremely doubtful about his giving
bOnd-in case of his election.
He also expressed the opinion that
the Republicans would be compelled
to fuse with the POpulistS. though it
would be - uncertain bust
ness-and he didn't like the crowd
that composed the Third party,
anyhow.
All this talk was made ia caucus
with closed doors.
1t was decided by the leaders to use
Eugene Kapp for Sheriff as a reward
for his past valuable services rendered
the Reyn, dds faction.
The County Convention is to be
held on Saturday, the both instant.
The Pops are to hold a committee
meeting next Saturday and TO their
convention for the same day-29th.
Not one of the Wheeler faction at

REVIVAL AT GRACE CHURCH.
Six Professions Monday Night-Rev
Mr.. Bagby's Sermon.

Six Professions Monday Night-Rev.
Mr.. Bagby's Sermon.
Six professions was the result of the
service at Grace M. e. Church Monday
night. Much interest was manifested.
Rev. Mr.. Bagby, of Greensboro,
preached a practical sermon to largs
congregation, his subject being "The
Rise, Progress and Result of Sin. -
He selected his text from James 1:15:
"Then when lust hath conceived, it
bringeth forth sin; and sin, when it is
finished, bringeth forth death.
"a great many people want to blame
Adam and Eve for their SINS" said
Mr.. Bagby. ''This is wrong. You are
responsible for your sins and if you
are lost you can blame no one but
yourself. Its your own conduct that
condemns you. God says. son give me
thy heart He demands your heart
and service-and he meets you half
way.
The church is making a great
mistake today in letting the children
alone; by not encouraging them to
give their hearts to God. Children
are disposed to love God and we should
lend them every encouragement.
1.-THE first sin is rejecting Christ.
We are only responsible for our
thoughts when we put ourselves in
the way of evil thoughts. If we take
care and guard our thoughts we will
not have much trouble with our
words OF actions
At the close of his discourse Mr..
BaVoy made an earnest exhortation to
those out of Christ to seek Him at
once. Several accepted the invita-
tion.

ters of tho Old North State.

Special Correspondence of the Sentinel
WASHINGTON, Sept. S.-Dr. Stephen
B. Weeks tells me that he is making
good progress on his work relating tC
his sketch of Judge Willie 2. Mangum.
He has received number Of personal
letters expressing the qualification OF
prominent men in the State at his
proposed work There is no doubt a
great deal Of latent feeling Of admira-
tion for the career of Senator ManQum
which is being brought out by this
book. He has had the good fortune
to meet gentleman here who was
the private secretary Of Clay and was
in this way thrown into intimate as
ISOLATION with Mangum, Clay, Critten-
den and others and much material
will be obtained for the social and
private life Of the Senator In Wash
tngton. In the same way some manu-
script material coming into his hands
from the family will throw reliable
light on the social and economic life
OF the State at the beginning of the
present century.
He is also making satisfactory pro-
gress on his book relating to the
Quakers in Virginia, the Carolinas
and Georgia, which will be published
next spring. He has obtained some
new material relating to the meetings
in northern and western Virginia.
He has read more than 20, 600 pages OF
Quaker manuscript, covering the
whole period from 1880 to the present
time. He will be able 60 reproduce
the history Of the North Carolina
meetings almost In full from these
records. There has been nothing
done on this line of our history up to
the present time. The influence of
the Quakers in the development Of
North Carolina has been most marked
and the Immigration from North Caro-
lima in 1900 and 1880 to the West was so
great that II is said one third of the
population Of Indiana was made up of
North Carolinians and their immedi-
ate children in 1850. Indiana is almost
as clearly the daughter of North Caro-
lima as is Tennessee.
He Will soon have published In the
political science quarterly OF New
York history and Status of negro
suffrage in the South.
AT Democratic headquarters here,
the managers are getting campaign
matters in fine shape for hard work.
Investigation shows that in districts
now (DemOcratic) 131 have made nOmi-
nations. OF this number 81 are re-

COTTON FACTORIES PAY.
Winston Needs One or More Of Them
who Will Build

Does anybody want better evidence
that any industry pays than the fact
that those engaged in that industry
are continually adding to their plants?
Read the following from the Charlotte
Observer and see if that does not fur
nish ample inducement for those who
have the means to engage in the bust
ness in Winston:
SAT meeting of the stockholders
of the Gaffney Manufacturing Compa-
ny, held on the ard, it was decided to
build new mill at once, to be known
as Mill No. 2. This new mill will be
equipped with 10000 to %, 900 spindles
and 600 to 800 looms, of the lat
est and most modern machinery in
every department, and will continue
the manufacturing of print cloth, the
same class of goods as now made by
the mill. 1t is expected that the new
mill will be completed and put Ia OPP
Grafton in about eight months. Over
$3.50, 900 was subscribed in Gaffney on
the 3rd, and the total subscriptions
now in view exceeds 1925, 0O0."

ToMM1E SETTLES OPPONENT.
Col. Amis Issues His Address What
He Saws

ne says
Col. Rufus Amis is out in his adj
| dress to the voters of the Fifth dis
trict. After detailing at length how
the convention was manipulated in
the interest of Settle, he goes on to
say:
Buckingham county Republicans,
in 1892, had to forego the privilege of
putting up and voting for d county
ticket, of their own, in order that
their votes might be serviceable to
Mr.. Settle, as an article of merchan-
disc, in exchange for Democratic
votes in his support. Il is the design,
this year, to extend this policy as far
as may be thought prudent to other
counties in the district by inducing
Republicans not to put up legislative
tickets, but to vote for Populist can
didateS, in order to secure POpuliSt
votes for Mr.. Settle.
The colored Republican voters of
this district are now confronted, as
never before, with the plain and
square proposition to make merchan-
disc of their political franchise: and
the choice is presented to them, of a
complete and abject surrender to the
revenue ring, or manly stand for
their equal political rights in the
party.

A MILF. OF TIsA CK RIPPED UP
Ten Cars Mashed t. Pieces -Dodson
Happened to be Near.

From the Charlotte News.
The biggest shake-up in the way of
a wreck the Southern has had since it
began business, occurred Saturday
night at Holtsburg, d station just
north of the Yadkin river bridge. a
Charlotte bound freight train was
torn all to pieces, and the track was
ripped up for the distance of one mile.
The accident was caused by the drop
ping out of a pin of IL Janney coupler.
The pin bounded and lodged on the
rail, wheel struck it, and then the
racket began. Ten box cars went
tearing along the ground, sO-2e on one
side, some on the other side of the
track and were mashed to pieces.
The track was unbOlted or unSpiked
for mile. OF the ten cars, Fortunate
ly for the company, six were empty
The other four were loaded with lum-
Der.
Capt. John. A. Dodson, the road
master for the Southern system, was
at Greensboro at the time, and was
very quickly at the scene. Gathering
his Wrecking forces together he found
that he lad mile of track to relay
move, all by tOrchlight. The north
bound vestibule was at Salisbury and
the south bound local was at Green's
bOro, waiting to resume their respec-
tive trips. Capt. DodSon and his men
set to work without delay, and in five
hours had the track repaired and the
road clear. 1t was quick piece of
work, but there was a boss man at the
head of the lob.

A VALUABLE RELIC.
British Gold Coin Found at the Root
ofaTobacco Stalk.


Mr.. S. d. Cromer, who lives near
Walnut Cove, while working in his
tobacco a few days since, found at the
root of a tobacco stalk, something in
the shape of ten dollar gold piece
Searching further he found other sim
liar pieces and three pieces of silver,
which upon examination proved to be
British gold coin of the value of about
So. The latest date on any of the
coins was 1877. How did it get there :?
The Danbury ReporterP says
there is an old tradition that during
the American Revolution troops cut
through the forests d road which led
directly past the field in which the
coins were found. Another tradition
is that it was CORVALLIS troops who
cut this road on their march from the
Guilford Battle Ground and crossed
Dan River not far distant from Hair
ston's ford. The superstition is that
some soldier in one or the other COM
mands either lost or hid the money.
Be that as it may, Mr.. Cromor says
that after he gets the tobacco off he
| will give the field thorough search
| and see if he can find some more just
| like it.

At two O'Clock Monday Senator Jar

at from 800 and 1000, at Goldsboro.
A good many Third partyites were
present. Ex-Governor Jarvis spoke
for over two hours on the platform on

and the very, best of attention was
given him; no enthusiastic applause
or demonstrations, but the crowd
created the impression that they
came to listen and to learn. The
speaker was presented by Mr.. B. f..
