full Of energy and enterprise seasoned
with good judgment, all crowned
with absolute. honesty and fair dealing
with every man, success has come to

and has in hand the management of
the two large cotton mills of the Bor-

and to promote their happiness and
prosperity.

COTTON CROP
Will Break Record. Reports Re
ceiVed at Census Bureau In
dictate that 1903 Returns
Will be Exceeded.

Washington, Aug. 17.-Reports
received at the census bureau indi-
cate that the cotton crop for the pres
ent year will be the largest in the
history of the United States, exceed :
inf the returns for 1902, when more
thrn 100000 bales were produced.
This unofficial estimate of an unus-
ually big cotton crop is based upon
reports already made, which show
that there has been an increase of
nearly ten per cent. in the acreage.
Great care will he exercised by Cen
sus Director North in making pub
. lie this years statistics of the GIN
|. ming of cotton in the South. Hereto
charges have been made that inter-
ested persons had frequently obtain
ed advance information which they
used to their advantage. This year
at least five monthly reports will be
made, beginning the 3lst instant.
About October l daily reports con-
taing the returns from the smallest
sub divisions will be given to the
public. This will not interfere with
the monthly reports, which will give
the total for the thirty day period.
The officials expect to make the pub
Hshed reports more acurate this year
than ever before. Mr.. Roper, the
cotton expert of the bureau, has been
in the south several months instruct
ing field agents with a view to get
ting reports more uniform in their
character than has been the case in
the past.

Mondays Daily Argus.
The alarm Of fire turned in from
box 81, this afternoon at 1:15 O'Clock
was occasioned by the burning of
four small wooden buildings about
one block north of the Felt Mattress
factory.
The fire originated in a house be-
longing to Jeff Hawkins, black
smith, who works for Mr.. Don Scott.
How it caught is not known, but it
is said that one of Hawkins children
split some kerosene oil on the floor
which became ignited. It had been
burning some time before discovered
and had gained such headway that
it was almost impossible to do any
thing with it.
mated the houses are very thick, and
soon another caught fire.
By this time the heat from the
burning buildings, together with the
scorching rays of the sun, was some
thing awful, and it was almost i'm
possible to stand anywhere in fight
ing distance of the fire. Notwith-
standing the intensity of the heat
our brave firemen and number of
citizens rushed in and fought the
flames to the best of their ability,
with the perspiration strea aiming from.

owing to the distance, and weak
water pressure. The only thing left
for them to do was to prevent the
flames from spreading, which they
succeeded in doing.
1t vas a terrible fire and at one
time it looked as if the whole block
would be completely wiped out, but
the fact that it was unusually calm
at that time was all that prevented a
heavy loss.
The first house burned, as stated
above, belonged to Jeff Hawkins,
and was completely destroyed to-
gether with all his furniture and
house fixtures.
The next house to catch on fire be-
longed to Isaac McLamb and this
was completely destroyed with all
its contents.
Both of the above houses we, 6
owned by negroes, and<they had no
insurance.
The next two houses burned be-
longed to Mr.. Fred Parker and were
occupied by John Carson and Wiley
Clark, coFored, and were insured for
about two thirds of their value.
These two families also lost nearly
everything they had.
Each of the above families had

Besides other damage done, not
reported, nice field of cotton be-
longing to Mr.. Andrew MoOring,
near where the fire originated was
badly damaged by being scorched by
the fire and trampled under foot.
The entire loss will amount to
about $4,000.
There IS no questioning the fact
that Goldsboro has the best citizens
and the bravest fire companies in the
State. While this fire occurred out

 The High-schcols were badly hand:- capped yesterday in several different ways. They were much lighter than their opponents and worse yet, they were short two cf the.r best players and the ones on whom they counted the most. Marshall was unable to take part hl the game on account of an injury received in his last game. How ard for some cause or ether was not in the game and the High school was seriously weakened by their loss.
