BELATED AND OTHERWISE.

As we went to press last week a
Mr.. Frazier and Miss Milan, who
came up from Eckman, were regis
tered at the Central, and soon it de-
voloped that they were in search of
license and preacher. Mr.. George,
however, in the absence of other
proof could not accept their united
testimony as to the young lady's age,
and they went away sorrowful, but
determined to find a place where
the knot could be tied, if it required
trip to the Philippines. We trust
that they are now Mr.. and Mrs. Fra
zier, and that they will live happily
ever after.
Rector Buckner came up from
Pocahoutas Monday in a decidedly
material frame Of mind. He left be-
hind him there eighty daring and
patriotic spirits, who have volunteer
ed for active duty at the front, and
who clamor to be led to victory or
death, Victory perfered.) We don't
know place where there Is better
war material than Focal outas and il
SEE ms almost pity to predict an
early emil g of the conflict, which
may deprive the allant oys of II
chance to show their mettle.
Our local chess players will be in
terested In a tournament pulled of
at the Bluefeld Inn last Saturd AZ
night. G. w. Scott, of the late firm
of Scott and Noble, Lynchburg,
seems to have developed into a
''chess sharp" as we'll as a lawyer,
and he played five Bluefeld experts
simultaneously and easily beat the
whole combination. The game is
being compared to Bluefields rece,
municipal election.
There is no doubt of the existence
OF mall pox to serious extent in
the coal fields of Elkhorn. The vel
low flags remind one of Autumn
trees, about Lick Branch and Bur
lows. The type, however, is so mild
that the disease is robbed of half its
terrors, and people seem to care lit
tie about it. There are, perhaps,
twenty cases in the neighborhood.

his friend had just been bitten by a

some medicine at a nearby drug store.
but was unable to do SO as the proprietor
Of the store could not make the correct
change.
With true simplicity, exemplifying his

out a money bag and commeced to count
out the necessary change, which as fast
as counted in quarters, dimes, etc. Were

about $4.W when the alleged hurt man

The other man followed out to look

Railway officials were in conference
with the military officers today regard
ing the transportation of troops, and it
is said they promised special trains and
quick service whenever called on.

Illicit stills.
Judge Purnell has returned from
Statesville court, where he sentenced
eight prisoners to the p~enitentiary. He
goes to New Bern tomorrow to hold
court.
Adjutant General Cowles said tonight:
Il believe a call for troops will be made
tomorrow. I am enthusiastically for war
and believe the honor of the state
should be maintained
1t cannot be positively said that The
troops will be ordered here Tuesday. 1t
seems that this will depend entirely upon
the wording of the presidents call on
the governor and also whether the gov
pays all expenses from date of
its call for volunteers, as the state au-
thorities are not willing to expend any
money whatever for this purpose; so,
therefore, all depends upon Instructions
or statements which the pres
ident's call. One of the state officers
makes this declaration.
General Cowles says it is his opinion
that the call by the war department will
cover all the expenses as to troops and
the state will be at no expense what
ever; that if the auditor issues a war
rant on the treasury that provision will
be made for reimbursement and that I'M
der these circumstances the governor and
auditor would advance the money.
