HORSES. MULES, WAGONS, BUGGIES
AND HARNESS AT AUCTION.

Mr.. Farrior sold last Tuesday every
horse he offered at auction-not horse
was drawn. There was never such bar
gains obtained or load of horses ever
sold in Wilson that give such universal
satisfaction some of them being sold on
the streets for more than twice what they
brought. He will have another sale next
Tuesday, and it is to every ones inter-.
est to attend these sales as they are not
only very interesting but great opportuni-
ties for speculation.
So everybody attend them and they.
will be well paid Mr.. Farrior knows his
business, and while his sale lost money,
he carried out his every promise, and
bore the loss.
1t is the greatest opportunity the pub
lie ever had to buy stock cheap, for Mr..
Farrior is determined to make this
wholesale horse market, and if the pub
lie do what is to their every interest, he
will surely succeed, for the word can't.
or fail is entirely unknown to him. and
the word success is indelibly written upon
his face and stamped upon his brow.
Don't forget the day-every Tuesday
at Wilson, n. c.

THE KENLY SCHOOL
Academy to Throw Open Its
Doors to All.
Supt. J,yner Much Impressed With Kenly and
Her School. Districts 10 Be Con-
solidated There

State Superintendent of Public Instruc-
tion j. Y. Joyner came back yesterday
evening from Kenly. where he made an
educational speech to large crowd.
The trustees of Kenly Academy invi-
ted Prof. Joyner to conference, and
they talked over ways and means as
touching the school.
Speaking of his impressions of Kenly
last night, Prof. Joyner said:
Il was very agreeably surprised at the
evidences of thrift and prosperity. There
is evidently a great deal of business done
there. l saw more cotton there than
have seen this year. There must have
been several hundred bales in and around
the railroad platform.
The people seem to be in fine spirits.
Everybody met me with a smile instead
of long face. They have corn in the
crib, meat in the smoke-house, mC--ssy
in the pocket. They have an ecellent
academy building and library Of /, 500 or
, 1000 volumes connected with the school,
two thriving literary societies, and four
excellent teachers.
"fhey are preparing now to lay off a
district within radius of about two or
three miles. consolidating two or three
little school districts into one, and vote
reasonable local tax, and throw the
doors of their school with all of it's ad-
vantages wide open to all of the children
in this district for eight or ten months
in the year. They find that they will be
able to do this at about the same ex-
penSe that their school is costing them
now. extending the benefits to about 400
children in the surrounding community,
instead of combining it as at present to
about one hundred who are able to pay
tuition.
PROF. w. A. Harper, the principal OF
the academy, is one of the leading spirits
in this movement, notwithstanding he is
making considerably more out of his pri-
vate school than he could hope to get
out of the public school number OF
the leading men and largest taxpayers
in the community are behind the move
ment. 1t will succeed. These people have
the right educational spirit in them, and
l predict that they are going to have
one of the leading communities in East
ern North Carolina
They tell me there that the influence
of the school that they have established
has been widely felt in the surrounding
country, that it has worked great
transformation in the community, anG
that the money put into it has been the
lest investment from a business stand
point that the community has ever made.
They believe that it will be still better
investment to extend the influence of
their school by opening its doors to all
the children through local taxation. They
have the wisdom to see also that the
only way to make the school absolutely
permanent is to place it on the firm basis
of taxation"

Goldsboro, N. c., Oct. 9.-The Republi-
cans, after sending notes and their run
ners around for ten days, succeeded in
getting about a dozen or fifteen of the
Republicans and Populists in Goldsboro
yesterday And after they had walked
and stood around all day until about two
o'clock, they decided not to use the court
room, which had been engaged by them
for their great meeting. but instead went
into the small grand Jury room and
locked the door, and were addressed by
Major Grant, Federal clerk of the Uni
ted States court, who came down from
Raleigh for that purpose. He said he
was not in favor of endorsing any Demo-
crat, "bar-room or slop barrel" Bat the
sense of the meeting was to appoint
committee to see the Independents, il
they could find them, and confer with
them, and if the Independents" would
give the Rep-pops the candidates for the
Legislature and the Senate, they would
let the Independents" have all the other

themselves to vote for Pritchard for

was nothing but an old Democratic
sucker and fraud.
Finally committee was appointed con-
sisting of ]. l. Mozingo, Murray Hollo-

cATARRH OF THE STOMACH.
A Pleasant, Simple, but Safe and Effect
ual Cure for 1t.

Catarrh of the stomach has long been
considered the next thing to incurable.
The usual symptoms are full or bloat
ing sensation after eating, accompanied
sometimes with sour or watery risings,
a formation of gases, causing pressure
on the heart and lungs and difficult
breathing headaches, tickle appetite,
nervousness and a general played out,
languid feeling.
There is often foul taste in the
mouth, coated tongue and if the interior
of the stomach could be seen it would
show Shiny, infiammed condition.
The cure for this common and obsti-
nate trouble is found in a treatment
which causes .he food to be readily,
thoroughly digested before it has time
to ferment and irritate the delicate mu-
cous surfaces of the stomach. To secure
a prompt and healthy digestion is the
one necessary thing to do and when nor
NAL digestion is secured the catarrhal
condition will have disappeared.
According to DIR. Harlanson the safest
and best treatment is to use after each
meal a tablet, composed of Diastase,
Aseptic Pepsin, little Nux, Golden
Seal and fruit acids. These tablets can
now be found at all drug stores under
the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
and not being a patent medicine can be
used with perfect safety and assurance
that healthy appetite and thorough
digestion will follow their regular use
after meals.
Mr.. r. S. Workman, Chicago, Ills,
writes: "Catarrh is local condi-
ton resulting from a neglected cold in
the head, whereby the lining membrane
of the nose becomes infiamed and the
poisonous discharge therefrom passing
backward into the throat reaches the
stomach, this producing catarrh of the
stomach. Medical authorities prescribed
for me for three years for catarrh of
stomach without cure. but today 1 am
the happiest of men. After using only one
box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. can
not find appropriate words to express
my good feeling. l have found flesh,
appetite and sound rest from their
use.''
Stuart's DYSPEPSIA Tablets is the safest
preparation as we'll as the simplest and
most convenient remedy for any form of
indigestion, Catarrh of stomach bilious
ness. sour stomach, heart burn end
bloating after meals.

An Acrobatic Pianist.

A Milan correspondent tells of a
pianist named Bancia, who at Venice
recently set himself to break the rec
ord of piano playing, so far as time
is concerned. Apparently what the
musician had to surpass was a 40
hours sitting at the instrument. This
he undertook to do by hammering the
keys for so consecutive hours, that APP
palling period being only broken by
three short rests of ten minutes each.
This feat was duly accomplished in
the presence of committee of doc
tors and musicians. When the two
days, two nights and two hours had
expired, Bancia played the Italian ma
tional anthem with jubilant flourish,
and left the piano amid the enthusi-
astic cheers of an enormous audience.
The whole of the receipts were given
to the fund in aid of the survivors of
the recent volcanic disasters in the
