Death Of an Old Citizen,

Ohio Van Poole, who has been
in feeble health for some time,
died Sunday at his home in Prov
idence township. The deceased
was the son of Joseph Van Poole,
a former we'll known citizen of the
Dutch Second Greek neighborhood.
He was married at "a years of age
to Miss Lucretia Lentz, who was
a daughter of Abraham Dentz, of
this county. He was a veteran of
the civil war, and served in the
Fifth North Carolina Cavalry, in
the company of Capt. Irwin, of
Statesville. Mr.. Poole was a good
man and a good citizen in all re-
spects, and was most highly es-
teemed by those who knew him.
The deceased was 50 years of age.
The funeral was held Monday
morning from St. Matthew's
church, Revs. Strlckler, N. D.

After Grant Greek.

At a meeting of the Board Of
County Commissioners Monday, a
committee was appointed to ex-
anime Grant creek and to select a
place at which a canal shall be
dug, for the purpose Of drainage
The idea is to straighten and drain
the creek from Rock bridge to the
Yadkin river. The physicians of
the city have recommended this
work, as in their opinion much of
the malaria here and at Spencer,
is due to the poisons arising from
the creek and from the stagnant
pools near it. The committee
consists of County Surveyor Mill
Ell, J. M Maupin, A, W, Wine.
coff and D. J.. Gaskill, and they
will decide upon all matters con.
nected with the work.

The Site for the Public Building,

Last Wednesday night a meet
ing was held in the opera house
for the purpose of obtaining an
expression Of opinion, from the
citizens of Salisbury, as to where
they desire the government build
ing to be located. G. D. Ellis
worth, of the Treasury Depart
ment, was here, and 1t was partly
his suggestion that this meeting
was held. L. Ed. Heilig presided
as chairman of the meeting. Mr..
Ellsworth made a brief address
on the matter of the building, the
site, etc., and requested the citiz,
ems to give their views as to the
most suitable site offered.
Burton Craige, Esq, made q
motion that the proposed govern
ment building be placed within
one block Of the centre of the
city, the centre being the inter
section of Main and Inniss streets,
The motion was carried uuani-
mously.
Mr. Ellsworth has returned to
Washington and has no doubt
made his report ere this, but
nothing has yet been received
from the department to Indicate
it's decision as to the site It is
expected, however, that the de-
cision will be made known in a
few days.

Gambling and Shooting.

Sheriff Julian sent out q posse
Friday to gather in a gambling
gang. Before the officers reached
the scene of action, Chas. Kidd
shot Jim Walker in the hip, both
