Mr.. j. R. Moore, of Granville

raising the largest hog on record in
North Carolina, is here with Jumbo
and has him on exhibition on the va
cant lot next to the Brodie building.
Many persons have seen him and all
are unanimous in pronouncing it the
biggest thing OF the kind ever seen
in these parts. Jumbo is about nine
ieet long and is larger around the
body than his length. He is 80
months old and weighs about 100
pounds. This hog is SO fat that his
eyes are closed up and he is practical
~ blind. He is sight worth seeing
and no one regrets paying the small
admission price of 10 cents charged.

the routine business had been dis
posed OF two admirable papers were
read, one by DR.. G. A. Coggeshall en-
titled "a Sketch from a Short Ram

Science in Religion in the Present

ally high order of excellence, inter-
esting. edifying and informing, and
showed fine thought and careful prep
;fration.
The next meeting will be held with
Mr.. F. c. Toepleman April 3rd. The
programme as arranged for the first

A name has not yet been decided
upon for the club and the committee
appointed for this purpose was con-
tinued. Several names we're suggest
ed but a decision was not made.
But whether named or not the club
is destined to do good work. One
bright woman being told of the d.
lemma in which the club found itself
about selecting name asked what
the object and nature of the club
was. When informed that it was
scientific and literary, she said it was
named-S. A. L. But the
point was made that this was a mems
club whereas that was a woman's
name, and it was not "railroaded"
through.

Rojestvensky feet are known to have

The Japanese losses, as reported
from Toxic, are only three torpedo
boats sunk, three officers killed and
about 200 men killed or wounded.
Not one Of the big fighting ships Of
Japan was lost.

were never found, the evidence pres

that the court ruled the producing of
the bodies wa, not necessary to prove
their death.
The case has excited wide attention
because of its remarkable features.
Williams is said to have married Miss
Nesbitt secretly shortly before the
crime was committed.
The shrewdest detectives in the
West have worked on the case, but
have only found few wisps of grey
hair and part of woman's dress to
prove the murder.
