CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH ITEMS.

The ladies of the Aid society wish to
thank their absent friends who sent so
many articles for their evergreen sale,
thereby helping materially to make
the affair a most decided financial
success. Generous contributions were
received from Mrs E. M. Beardsley of
Monroe, Mrs Smith Robinson of
Bridgeport and Mr. and Mrs Paul
Rehnberg and Miss Grace Pulford of
Old Point Comfort, Va. A handsome
rug, the work of Mrs George Knight,
was bought by the ladies of the society
and presented to Mrs Pangburn as a
small token of their appreciation of
her untiring efforts in behalf Of the sale.
The Christmas eve exercises in the COngre-
gational church passed off delightfully."-. After
speaking and other exercises by the smaller
classes, Santa Claus, unprecedented by George
Northrop distributed gifts to each member Of
the school, at :the same time creating great
merriment by his antics. Then he found that
his pack still contained a box of candy for
each member of the school and home depart
ment, whether:present or absent. After these
exercises Il supper was served in the parlOrS
to which about $50 sat down, all members of
the Sunday school, and an enjoyable social

opportunity for the Home Department and

Z the Case Tried In State Court.

ciaL)-In the United States Court to-day
the case Of Thomas L. Felts, who killed
a man named Vaughan in Wythe county,
was called. Hon. William "A. Anderson,
Acknowledgement of the State, appeared
and offered motion that the case be re-
manded to the court at Wytheville He
claimed that that court had original ju-
risdiction, and that the case never should
have been removed to the Federal court,
as Felts was not, at the time of the kill
ing of Vaughan, engaged in the discharge
of any duty as an officer of the United
States.
Mr.. Felts claims he acted strictly in
self-defence when he killed Vaughan; that
he was a. deputy United States marshal,
and was acting in the discharge of his
duty when the trouble occurred; that the
conduct of Vaughan and Afford had hin-
dered the discharge Of his duty as such
officer; that Vaughan and Afford had irl-
tended to kill him, and that he is en-
titled to trial in the United States Court
for these reasons.
Judge Mcdowell took time to consider
and set the case for September 18Th.

THROWN INTO PRISON
FOR SMOKING CIGARETTES.
Editor Saunders, OF Elizabeth City,
N. c., Proposes to Test Town
Ordinance.

ELIZABETH CITY, N. c., September
9-(Special. EDITOR Saunders, Of the
Elizabeth City Tarheel, was this morn
ing arrested and thrown into prison for
smoking q cigarette within the corporate
limits Of Elizabeth City. Recently the
Board of Aldermen of this city passed an
ordinance making it an offence, subject
to a fine, for any minor to smoke cigar
cites upon the streets of Elizabeth City.
This morning Mr.. w. 0. Saunders
violated that law and was arrested. He
plead guilty. Mayor Wilson imposed the
stipulated fine.
Young Saunders refused to pay the fine
or to give bond. He said: THE law is
unconstitutional, arbitrary for a free
born American people"
Saunders is in the lookup and refuses
all offers Of many friends to go on his
bond.
The result of this unique case promises
to be interesting.
