r1r. Hicks Resigns.

Mr.. 7. 7. Hicks, attorney to the
Board of County Commissioners. ten
dered his resignation Monday. While
the Board was in session Mr.. Hicks
was sent for to ask his opinion about
matter but instead of appearing in per-
son he sent his resignation in writing.
In the note conveying his resignation
Mr.. Hicks gave as a reason for his ac-
ton the fact that he had advised them
before in a material matter-the right
of the two Democrats to act with them
and for that he did not consider the
Board as at present constituted law
full BODY. and therefore did not propose
to be responsible for their actions.

No Wheels in His Head, but His Legs
Got Mixed up in Good Many.

Col. Roger O. Gregory, of Oxford,
was a Henderson visitor Tuesday. He
was limping slightly from the effects
of an accident which happened to him
recently. In explaining the whole
matter the Colonel said he ran away
with horse and buggy and had some
trouble about getting rid of them when
they had to part company. There is
fifth Wheel to every buggy but this
one seemed to have great many more
than that number, he thought, and he
got tangled up in every one of them,
with the result that he was consider

Sad Dispens atiOn of Providence.

On last Friday, the Bird OF September,
1897, as the day was drawing to aclOses
u telegram was handed in. 1t contained
but few words, "Oscis and John died
to-day" But those few words We're suffi-
Gent to tell of sorrow and sadness, OF
a home bereft of all it's brightness, of
torn and bleeding hearts, OF 'Rachel
weeping for her children, and would not
be comforted, because they are not"
Thus after few days of sickness, with
intease suffering, these two dear little
boys, sons of John and Mary Emma
King, of Windsor, Va, were taken in one
dau. Gentle and loving in devotion, and
beautiful in form and feature, they were
the 10y and hope of the parents.
In my imagination, | go back Il few
short weeks, and behold them, the pride
of the home; they were the nucleus around
which every thought or plan for the fu-
ture conferred.

this is IL time for weeping.' All ad

Did George Brodie Think He Would
be Hung?

There can be no doubt in the minds
of those who saw George Brodie as he
assembled the scaffold, and studied his
looks and demeanor at the time, that
he believed he would not be hung.
He evidently expected that the Gov
ernor or somebody else would in
terfere in his behalf, or that he
would be rescued after being taken
from the Jail before the gallows
was reached. His written statement
made three days previous, his denial of
guilt to his colored spiritual adviser in
the cell ten minutes before the death
warrant was read, and his conduct and
conversation throughout all 60 to show
that he did not believe he would be
hung, or else he was the most callous
and depraved wretch that ever met a
like fate. 1t was not until the top oil
the scatfold was reached and the imple-
ments of death stared him in the face
| that he seemed to realize that there
was no hope for him, no way of escape
| from the sentence that had been pro.
nounced by the Court in return for the
awful crime he had committed. VI
to this time he must have thought his
denials would help him, that his stor J
would be believed and his neck would
be spared. There are number OF cir
| cumstances and surroundings connected
with the case that go to bear us out II
these conclusions.
But when he saw he was mistaken
and stood face to face with death he
broke down and confessed his guilt
saying it was right sentance aud HI
ought to be hung.

The Latest and Best,

What to wear and where to get it
and have it made to order in the best

That matter has been settled for the
gentlemen of Henderson and surround

beautiful, durable and right up to the

order and one that will fit and wear
we'll call on him and you can get what
you want and be pleased. The best
feature about Whites work is that it
is aUright-and so are his prices. Try
