The Grating club is. on hand
The cry. crate. is heard. and is
repeated from different directions.
Big Andy hears the cry and is on
the lookout. The rowdies hunt for
their horses and if any one OF
them remains Big Andy. a large
and powerful man, crates him,

opposite Divers Academy, near
where the Jail now stands. and
turns him into it.
The North Carolina wagons are
around, dispensing tobacco and ap-
pies. Old lady Anderson and others
are there with ginger cakes and CT

veniles. Four or more Yankee ped
dlers. with spanking horses and
briSht-painted Jersey wagons. all
gayly decorated with brilliant col
ors. come dashing down Main
street. They spread out their wares
in attractive style. to the annoyance
OF the merchants. But the legisla-

All! salesday in those old times
was capital day, with much
amusement and enjoyment. How
is it now?
Carwile gives nice description
of the old court house and court
room. Opposite the bench was the
prisoners box. guarded by a tip
staff. and there was one tip-Statt at
the entrance to each jury box. The
old court house. was very substan-
tial. but the people. desiring new
one, exhibited some cracks to good
old Judge Richardson. and he, be-
lieving it was dangerous. gave his
influence for new one.
COURT DAY IN OLD NEWBERRi.
1t is court day. and the officers
and lawyers are on the alert. Now
comes r. R. Nance, sheriff, with
a drawn sword and cooked hat,
escorting the Judge with a gown
under his arm to the court house.

Yes replied the judge.
Mr.. Pettigrew proceeds:
well, the law says the sheriff
shall wear a cooked hat and sword.
Must the sword be cooked as well
as the hat?'
Mr.. Pettigrew went on with his
argument.
Sam Slick thus ridicules the
gowns:

Europe, but they don't convene to

THE WAR SITUATION
IN THE FAR EAST.
PORT ARTHUR AGAIN BOMBARDED BY
THE JAPANESE.
Improbable Stories to the Effect that Port
Arthur Has Fallen, Which Are
Denied.

Except for the bombar(lrnent of
Port Arthur By the Japanese fleet
and Tor the vague stories of Port
.ArtllurS fall there has not been
very much news from the Russo
lapanes. war during the past Sew
c:-al days.
\ dispatch to Reuters Telegram
Company from St. Petersburg
SAYS:
Japanese torpedo boats appeared
of Port Arthur at midnight Of the
night of March 2I-o2 and the shore
batteries and. guard ships shelled
them for twenty minutes.
The Japanese rereated. but re-
appeared four hours later. when
they met with same reception,
when they retired again.
AT 6 a. NJ. Japanese squadron
of two divisions. composed OF four
and eleven ships and accompanied
by eight torpedo boats. appeared
and the Russian squadron sailed
out from the outer roadstead to
meet them.
No further details regarding the
action are available.
AT 9 a. m. the Japanese battle
ships. having fired several shots
at Liaotisllin and sheltered behind
the promontory, commenced bonl-
bardment OF Port Arthur. r.
Toxic. March ga special
dispatch from AIoji Opposite
Shironoselii. Japan) says the Jap
arese fleet made another attack on
Port Arthur on March IS. bon-'
barded the city and its defences and
fought a furious engagement with
the Japanese feet outside the har-
Dor. dstroying one Russian battle
ship. Seven fapanse casualties are
reported. There is no information
concerning the japanese fleets con-
dition.
This is the first announcement Of
an engagement off Port Arthur on
March IS. Special dispatches re-
ceived in London this afternoon
contain the same details OF all en-
gagement being given as March 22,
which probably is correct.
The Associated Press dispatches
from St. Petersburg last night gave
full details of the fight at Port Ar
thur March 22.
St. Petersburg. March "a, 2.34 a.
m.-.As no further dispatches. Of
hcial or otherwise. have arrived
here from Port Arthur up to this
morning the officials have come to
the conclusion that the lombard
ment BY the Japanese fleet on the
night of March 81 ard the morning
of March 22 failed TO cause any
damage considered worthy to be
reported to the emperor. In con-
sequence considerable satisfaction
at the continued fruitlessness OF the
Japanese assaults on Port Arthur
prevails in high circles.

on to the market house, a small
square building with the only bell
in the village, except the Fernandez
hotel bell. The market house bell
called the people TO meat and to
meeting at the court house. for at
this time there was no church in the
village. Nerebv was a square.

enclosing a debtors room. the
black flower OF barbarism. 1t was
a two-Story building. with dwelling

taller was that iraScible old timer,
Frank Price. There were two
rows OF cells. with prisoners look
ing longingly out OF the grated
windows. The last ones | knew to
have been taken to the whipping
post were two white men convicted
of theft. Capt. James Bonds. the
sheriff. invited me to see the whip

OF the whipping post was good
thing. save that a wife whlpper
should be tied to it.
SALESDAY OF THE PAST.
Going to the front of the court
house. we find it is salesday, day
that mirrors the life and spirit of
the times. \ surging crowd Of
rural folks are there. Around the
court house are friendly groups OF
good-looking. prosperous. cheerful
citizens. indulging in cordial, hear
tv conversation, and with quiet
laughter intercllanging kindly
greetings. Under the old locust
groups OF intelligent and refined
citizens are discussing the political
ard material issues OF the day. How
many happy memories centre
around that old tree! In front of
old Gil's, where the ticklers are re-
filed, is remarkably atheletic,
well-formed young man, James
Buzhardt, who has at three jumps
covered thirty-six feet, and young
men are trying to beat it; but, no
go! 1t is a time for horse-swap-
ping. You see Jim benson, good
Judge of horses, afterwards killed
at Cherubusco in the Mexican war,
coming along with his arm crook
ed at the elbow. Seeing a good
horse. with his favorite expression,
he says, stranger, will YOU trade
