LIGHTNING Rods.

w. K. Carter & Sons having obtain
ed license to sell and erect lightning
rods IN this town and county, and with
sufficient experience and conveniences
are now prepared to do this kind of
work at short notice. All work guar
anteed to be done scientifically and
up to date. We furnish the very best
and latest improved galvanized steel
rods, with fine copper points anu glass
1nsulators, which is very essential to
the safety of the building. We notice
number of rods put up around here
which has no insulators;we believe this
to be dreadful mistake, as glass is
positively non conductor oflightring
1t IS very necessary that we should
have good glass insulators on our
lightning rods.
Any person having a lightning rod
on their house, out of order, will do
well to apply to us at once and have
the same put in order as the house is in
more danger than if it had none. ANY
person wishing to have a new light
ming rod put up only notify us, we will
serve you in short notice. All work
done at reasonable pr ces. an.

There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable
For great many years doctors pro-
nOunCed 1t local disease, and pres
cribed local remedies, and by constant
ly failing to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it inCurabls. Science has
proven Catarrh to be a constitutional
disease, and therefore requires consti-
tutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney
4 Co Toledo, Ohio, is the only constr
tutional cure on the market. 1t is tax
en- internally in doses from 10 drops to
teaspoonful. 1t acts directly on the
blood and mucous surfaces Of the sys-
tenn. They offer one hundred dollars
for any case it fails to cure. Send Tor

The Fourth of July.

independence Day in Eliza
beth City passed off very pleas
ant1y. The weather was charm.
ing. with a slight shower Of
rain at noon, and enough breeze
to make it thoroughly enjoy able
People came from al, quarters
and there were several thousand
of them.
There was no regular Fourth
of July celebration, but at the
Park there was much amuse>
ment. The Pasquotank Trotting
Club had prepared a very inter
esting program of races and field
amusenents, which was carried
out as advertised; and to this
Club and its managers the
thanks of the people are certain
ly due.
At II o'clock, the fun began
with a bicycle race for country
boys, which was quite exciting
and won by Ben Bray, of this
county; time 2:45.
The mule race came off at I
o'clock and created much fun,
and was won by Mr.. Nat Nor
ris' mule; time 3:I5.
The bicycle race for town
boys who had never won a race,
was very exciting and was won
by Sam Wh1tson; time 2:42.
In the trotting race the horse
owned by Henry Raper won
three straight heats; time 2:31.
Purse $500. c. w. Overman's
horse won second money.
Following the trotting race,
Willis Gregory and Ben Bray
made a half-mile bicycle dash,
Bray winning the race.
c. c. Thompson gave several
exhi bition heats with his fast
trotting horse Bay Line, with
running mate.
The greasy pig was turned
loose but the crowd was so dense
he failed to give the spectators
much fun:
Good order prevailed and the
day passed off gloriously, and
everybody present expressed
themselves as being perfectly
satisfied, and left happy.
At night fire works were dis
played in the city. Thus ended
a happy and enjoyable FOURTH
a day to be pleasantly remem ber-
ed and, We hope, to be repeated.

it is quite probable that this point will
