being tine late DR. Z. W. Young, one Of
the best known physicians OF the
section surrounding Granville county,
and who faithfully served the cause Of
the Confederacy as a surgeon in General
Scales Brigade The mother of our
subject was Miss Cooper, a sister of
the late J. c. Cooper, Sr., of Oxford.
James r. Young was born in Feb
ruary, 1853, in Granville county, and
passed his early life there among the
good people of that section. His early
education was had by faithful attend
ance at Horners famous School at Ok
ford. where he remained until suisse
uliently he entered Hampden-Sidney
College of Virginia.
After leaving that we'll known insh-
tuition of learning he returned to Ok
ford, where he remained until 1875,
when he removed to Henderson and be-
came engaged in the drug business, and
subsequently added the insurance bust
ness.
When Vance county, of which Hen
derson is the county seat, was formed,
Mr. Young took an active part for the
success of the bill, and was largely i'm
strumental in having it passed and rati-
fed by the people
In 1881 he was appointed by Judge
John A. Gilmer as Clerk Of the
Court for the county of Vance, and as
such made hosts of friends who never
failed to remind him of his efficiency in
that office by rejecting him at the fol-
lowing election, and again four years
later. He served in all ten years as
Clerk of the Superior Court Of Vance
county.
After retiring from the office Of Clerk
of the Court he continued i'll the insur
ance and real estate business, and was
soon the leading representative of that
business in that entire section of the
State.
He is a man of a most genial, per-
sonal manner and tact and fine bust
ness qualities, and has endeared him-
self to the people Of Henderson and that
section with whom he holds high and
much esteemed position.
In March, 1899, Mr.. Young was elect
ed by the Legislature as Insurance Conn
missioner for the State of North Caro-
lima, he being the first Insurance Com
missioner the State has ever had, al
though needed many years ago. 1t is
a most important office, as there are
so many fraudulent insurance compa-

BIRTH OF A FASHION PLATE
Modern Art n Libel on Women's Tnste
Which All True Men
Must Resent.

All! for the good old times when ar
fists, real artists, could be persuaded
to design a costume. One of the prin-
cipal items CT expense to lady of old
Italy used to be the retainer" she paid
to a Da Vinci, a Bramante, OF some
other artist of note, to furnish her with
a design for her court and other dresses
OF ceremony, says Self-Culture.
To-day some one who can draw is
given an idea by costumer-that is, by
some one who has made or cut dresses
under some other costuiner's tetelage.
Neither one has studied or cares aught
for art, proportion, harmony, or the
other superfuities; they are cos
tuners; what have they to do with
such details? A wonderful assent blage
of ideas is the result, a confection in
silks, satins, chiffons and laces. These
ideas and materials are beautifully and
painfully drawn upon paper and draped
upon an alleged female figure at least
seven feet tall, with head slightly
turned, auburn hair, sylphlike waist,
stage smile and a background of
palms and ferns.
This drawing being reproduced upon
thousands and thousands of sheets, 10!
a fashion plate is born, with the name
of the great designer in the left-hand
corner, the password, the hall mark!
Every woman, or rather, nearly every
woman, studies it, admires it, and, be
she lean or fat, tall or short, her next
dress must be like that. Pehchance her
dressmaker has not signed her soul
away entirely and protests feebly that
that special style is not adapted to her
patrons particular figure; but for her
effrontery she may lose customer.
That dress has to be made in that way
and in none other.
The DeLamar nugget. [volume] (DeLamar, Idaho) 1891-1900, 1899-10-20

While we were having stormy
weather here, last week, it must have
been fiue in Weiser, for here is the way
Bro. Lockwood sang about it under the
title of "The Man in jail Excepted"
The beauty and serenity Of October
bows to the fat land now in all its
glory of late roses, emerald fields,
luscious fruits and sweet greenery.
The splendor of these soft days of fall
is so serene, and the full maturity of
crops and orchard so delightful that
every heart is full of the sunshine of
Indian summer. The blue sky, sprink-
led with silvery clouds, bends promis-
ingly over Weiser land and lends to the
winding river its blue, its gold and its
beauty. In town and country the
foliage is yet perfect and untouched by
the yellow fingers of approaching
winter, all is exhuberant, and the per-
fume of fruit, flowers and fat harvests
is being waited everywhere. Fat kline,
laughing children, big haystacks and
joyous birds are all around, and every
10 is happy in the October glory
except the man in Jail. Moral: Keep
yoir physical structure, as much as
possible, outside of places where the
gloom gets into your fancies, and where
not breath of fresh wind ever worries
through your whiskers.

Stop Murder by Furnishing Criminals.

Call it any mild name one may,
another murder was added to Owy-
hee's record Thursday night of last
week, when brutal barkeeper shot and
instantly killed man in a saloon ad
joining his own. There is not one pal
liating circumstance or a shadow of
excuse for the crime committed. 1t
was MURDER spelled out in bold
black letters and merits the punish
ment which the law provides for such
crimes.
The man who was murdered was
almost stranger in the town and was
foolishly spending his summers wages
fully or not, accused his slayer of rob-
bing him in making change. This was
the excuse for the murderer following
his victim into another saloon where he
was found sitting in a chair asleep,
wakening the man and after brief
controversy, sending bullet through
his body.
Count the number of such crimes
which, within the last decade, have been
committed in Owyhee county! To be
sure, some of them have been under
circumstances which could make some
showing of extenuation, but were muir
ders or attempts to commit murder all
the same. How many of the perpetra-
tors have escaped punishment or gotten
off with light sentences?
1t is high time to stop this business,
and the way to stop it is to mete out
justice to the criminals. The laws are
all right, but wrong sentiment pre-
walls. A sentimental sympathy is
worked up for criminal to which he is
in no way entitled. Money is con-
tributed for the defense, often to cor
rupt juries, and a criminal gets free,
only to encourage the preparation of
similar crimes by others of his kind.
Stop this sort of business. Carry out
the intent and purpose of very just
laws and make future would-be crimi-
mails know what the consequences of
the p,rpetration of the crime of muir
der will probably be and we may expect
different condition of affairs to exist.
