Schools Open Well.

1t is gratifying to THE COMMON
WEALTH to note the fine opening OF
our schools this session.
Vine Hill Female Academy opened
tuesday with an enrolment of 81
pupils. This Is so per cent. increase
over the opening year ago. Prof.
Bagley may we'll feel encouraged at the
fine opening and the good prospects.
His teachers were all in place and the
work of the session starts off we'll.
Vine Hill Male Academy also opened
we'll Tuesday with more than so pupils.
Prof. T. J. Creekmore has been in the
community only little more than two
weeks, and the fire opening speaks we'll
for. the good work he has done since
he came. In his work he is assisted
by Mrs. CIeekmore, and it looks now
like he may have to employ more help
He has reasons to feel greatly gratifed
at his aattering opening.
Also Cottage Home School, with
Mics Lena Smith principal, opened
well few days ago. She has Miss
Bechtel as teacher again and also N iss
Lower from Maryland.
1t seems, after all, that the spirit 0!
education is stirring somewhat anew in
Scotland Neck. We trust it may grow
stronger and stronger until it touches
every home.

Successful colored Farmer.

Nike Hardy, colored man who
lives three miles from Scotland Neck,
has set an example of successful farm
operations, which may well he followed
by any and all of both races.
Some days ago the editor of The
COMMONWEALTH bought some nice
peaches frem Mike, and knowing some
thing OF his thrift we asked him how
he IL getting along. He said that he
is doing very we'll, and upon further
questions and his ready answers we
agreed with him.
In 1872 Mike bought 50 acres OF
land near Smiths mill, and built a
nice home. Hundreds and hundreds
of people pass his home every year and
it is almost always subject of COM
ment.
In 1873 Mike purchased $40 acres
Of river land. From this he realized
good profits. In 1880 he purchased
375 acres more of river land, and in
1897 he purchased still 1876 acres
more. He thus owns 800 acres OF
land which he rightly regards as a
good possession and of which he is
justly proud. When asked If his lands
are worth ten dollars per acre Mike
said he thought they are worth more.
He said he thought his entire posses
sions worth about ten thousand dollars
He said he will finish paying off all
his indebtedness this fall, he thin ks.
He rents out his lands and said his
annual income Is about thousand
dollars. He has reared family OF
four children, all grown now, and has
given them fairly good education.
He sent one girl to Richmond to
school and one boy to Raleigh. The
other boy aud girl he did not send
away from home but says they have
secured a reasonably good ed ucatlon at
home.
The COMMONWEALTH submits that
Mike Hardys example as faithful
toiler for his own success is worthy the
emulation of any and all persons.
One remarkable thing about his career
is his disregard of politics. He says
he has paid little or no attention to
such things farther than to vote at
every election.

Nine Elrado Until Tuesday.

Mime Leila Eirado, who has been in
the town several days has been visited
by some of our best citizens.
She says that her work is no nys-
terry, that any one can study palmistry
who will. But it does seem mystic
rious when she tells you things that
YOU think no ono knows.
She will be here only until next
Tuesday. Her readings are private
and confidential. She is not hum
bug or fake, and the recommendations
that she carries are not to be doubted
State Treasurer B. r. Lacy writes
her that he has received the chart Of
his hand which she cent him, and on
the whole he regards 1t as very correct.
A number of the lest people In
Scotland Neck say that Nine. Elrado
Is we'll verssd in palmistry and express
great confidence in her work.
A prominent man of the town who
recently returned from Buffalo, n. Y.
says that Nine Elrado told him here
exactly what a famous palmist told him
there.

Two Interesting Suits.

The most interesting suits in Hall
fax Superior Court last week were two
libel suits.
One was G. W. Garrett & Co., against
Paul Garrett and the other was Thos.
n. Harrison against Paul Garrett.
The first case grew out OF a circular
letter issued by G. W. Garrett & Co..
sometime in the spring OF 1898, In re-
ply to which Paul Garrett sent letter
to one of his statesmen which G. w.
Garrett & Co. claimed was ilbelOus
and defa,natory. This case was nom
suited but was appealed to the Supreme
Court.
The second case grew out OF the fact
that Thos N. Harrison endorsed the
Circular Of &. w. Garrett & Co., rs
chairman Of the board Of commissioners
OF Halifax county, aud claimed that
Paul CARROTS letter WAS fibelOus In lts
reference to him.
This case went to the jury and was
ably argued for the plaintiff by Mess.
W. II. Day, David Bell and for the
The defendant by Mess. e. l.. 3 Travis.
Claude Kltchin and w. E. Daniel.
The verdict was In favor Of the defend
ant, but was Appealed to tbs Supreme
court.

A Word to Del.nquents.

Our first word Is one Of good cheer
to every one. We feel sort of per-
sonal interest in every one OF our sub
scribers, and take pains to say in the
outset that we hope to have our pleas
ant relations continue with every one
OF you.
But as the time is coming on when
farmers and others begin to realize
something ON their years toll in the
sale of tobacco now and cotton little
later, we beg to say that some of our
subscribers are considerably in arrears
and we must make collections this fall.
We desire to be polite about it, but
we must be positive and say that we
expect every one OF our subscribers to
settle up with Us by the end of the
year. Now, don't read this and say
you will settle with us after you have
rounded up everything else.
The mana cement Of this paper looks
fist, last and all the time to giving its
readers dollars worth OF service every
year and it is almost invariably done
promptly.
Let the paper be remen, bered this
once amorg the first to be settled with.

Mr.. Eugene Medford Commits Suicide.

This morning "wednesday the town
was startled at an early hour to learn
that Mr.. Eugene Medfori had COM
mitted suicide. At about 8 O'Clock he
shot himself In the right temple with
a 32-callber pistol and about 8 O'Clock
he gasped his last breath and died.
He was about Is years old and Tor
three years or more had been manager
Of the central Office of the Scotland
Neck telephone exchange. He was
quite competent in his work, but tor
some time it had been known that he
was drinking heavily at times.
1t is reported that he was out late
last night, coming in about 2 o'clock
this morning. Master Horace Pitt
man was sleeping in the bed with him
IN the next room to the telephone .ex-
change and pistol shot near him
awoke him and he sprang up to find
upon investigation that Mr.. Medford
had shot himself. Physicians were
hastily summoned but from the first
it was evident that he must die from
the wound. Friends could do nothing
more than stand by and see him gasp,
and gasp, and die.
Crazed by drink was the cause gen.
orally assigned for the rash act.
He was quite efficient in his work
at the telephone exchange and was in
good favor with the managers OF the
company here. Recently he bad beer
offered position in Richmond, but
bis salary had been raised here thi.
week rather than lose him from the
service.
The affair has shocked the town, as
no such occurrence has been known
here before.
No particulars are known at this
writing as to the burial.

Good Crops In Halifax.

Mess. w. A. Dunn and Claude
Kitchln have been in Raleigh this week
attending Supreme Court. The News
and Observer OF Tuesday said:
Mr.. w. A. Dunn, OF Halifax, says
the crops in his section were never
better, but between there and Raleigh,
they are very poor"
The Morning Post gives the follow
ing interview with Mr.. Kitchin:
Congressman Claude Kitchin arrfv-
ed In the city yesterday from Scotland
Neck to attend the Supreme Court.
Mr.. Kitchin brings cheerful news, dif-
feyent in character from that which
has reached Raleigh all summer long.
The crops in Halifax, Congressna an
Kitchin declares, are the best Halifax
has had in years. The rains Of the past
fifteen days may break the force OF this
statement to some extent, the Con-
gresham declares, but the fact re-
mains that Halifax has great crop,
while the balance of the State is suffer-
ing to some extent.
"Mr. Kitchin says he knows farmer
Who is banking on making two bales
Of cotton to the acre, and he says ne
will do so, unless the recent rains have
bad effect. Mr.. Kltchin has land
himself that will yield more than q
hale of cotton to the acre. ,..;..
"The CONGRESSMAN says good crops
in Halifax this year are not confined 70
the river lands, but that all LANDS IN
the county will yield bountifully."
