DR.. Frank Boyette, the dentist,
who for s years has been continuously
engaged in the practice of his pro-
fession in this city has leased his
dental Offices to DIR. L. l.. Cameron,
and will devote himself to looking
after his property interests and other
business affairs, that are sufficient to
require his undivided attention, but
he will still remain a citizen Of Colds
boro. DR.. Boyett has established
quite an extensive practice here and
has gained an enviable reputation as
a practitioner of skill, and his retire
ment will be greatly regretted
throughout a wide territory.
Mr.. John R.. Hood, of Grantham
township, an uncle of Mayor Geo.

four children, who survive him, he
leaves three brothers, MI. E. g..
Hood, of Asheville, Mr.. n. B.
Hood, of Dunn, and Robert Hood, of
Georgia. The deceased was an ex-
cellent citizen and his death will be
sincerely mourned in the cOmmun-

manly and Christian virtues we're
known and appreciated. The funer-
al was held on Thursday morning
at II o'clock, conducted by Rev. J.
B. Jackson, of this city, and the in
terment made in the old family
burying ground.
On Friday afternoon of this week
for one hOur-frOm 4 O'Clock to 5
O'Clock, the Woman's Club Library
! will be opened for the first time to
| the public of GoidsbOro for our peO-
pie to avail themselves of its already
Well-stored shelves of readable books.
The event will be without ostenta-
ton, but it is none the less important
as marking a great stride forward in
our city's history-and it is not the
! only progressive feature G%OldsbOrC
/ has taken on since the organization
of the Woman'sC Club, and the ARGUS
| bears cheerful and grateful testimony
! to the incalculable benefit along va
ried lines of industrial development.
as well as in unfailing charity, the
| Woman's Club has been to this com.
munity.
1t is not often that a negro starts in
| to save money and when he does anC
then another negro comes along anC
steals it somebody is going to get in
, TO trouble, as was the case Tuesday
! when Humphrey Hollowell, who
/ works at the livery stables Of Mr.. d
E. Smith, got up and found that sS4
which he had saved III small amounts
! from his meagre earnings, had de
! parted from his pockets. He had the
money when he went to sleep. L
was the last thing he had thought of
There was only n negro whom
Humphrey suspected and he accord
ingly notified the police. After
short search Dock Isler was found il
a store buying "a suit Of clothes, Bel
PearsalI was with him. The police
took them both under arrest and Sc
cured $50 OF the money and turned i
over to Humphrey, who was glat
enough to get it. After they wer'
arrested the two boys began to tel
on each other. 1t seems that the,
:. have been stealing together for SOM
time Dock Isler produced a gol'
watch which ne stole frcn Mr.. Jas
Southeriand some time ago and Be
PeaIsaA produced d suit Of ciothe
which he had stolen from Tar. E. /
Wilson. They tod ABOUT otle
things which ihey had stoarn. Tie.
were given a hearing before JustIc
BroaGhUrst, who seEt them both t
Jail IN default of bail.
