Merit cannot be hid, however mod
cstIy it may appear, and although the
space occupied in our Christmas cut by
Pryce L. Jones, Henderson's artistic
and progressive job printer, is not as
large as some others. it tells its story
no less etfectualy for all that. But
however loud or eloquently the adver-
tisement may speak it is not so forcible
as Mr.. Jones work speaks for itself.
An experienced workman, with taste
and skill to properly employ the facil-
tiles at his command his work is equal

EDWIN STEPHENS.
Verify old Santa Claus has made
his headquarters at the Henderson Book

years eclipses them all. The stock is
larger, the assortment more varied, the
quality better, the prices lower. And
Mr.. Stephens is almost giving away
goods he says. Indeed, SO low are
his prices, so extensive is the variety
and so high the value of his stock that
persons from Raleigh have bought their
Christmas goods from him, saying they
could do better at Stephens'-eet what
they want and at lower prices-than
they could at home. There are
toys of every description, wheel
goods in great variety, fancy articles,

around the waist threw him into the
lake. While he was in Yellow's grasp
Johnson had time to beg him not to
throw him into the lake and made piteous
appeals to him, but Yellow was relentless
and hurled him headlong into the water.
George Frost, of Saltwater, and one or
two other little fellows aided by yell

going down for the last time, but were
unable to do so.
When Yellow saw an officer approach

Gus grounds, grabbed his coat and dug
out across the country. He has not yet

circus negro who is out after him,
