Important Notice.

With the big advance in the
cost of paper and printing ma.
terials of all kinds and the in
crease in the cost of living and
. heavieroffice force expensethan
ever bef ore, the only plan by
whichwe can see our way clear Q
keeping the subscription price
of the CoURIR down to ST a year
is to require all subscribers to
pay in advance and to assist US
in every way they can to enlarge
our sub scription list. If they will
all do this we can still manage
to get along and make buckle
and tongue meet, but can only
do so on a cash. in. advance
basis, and those who do not pay
in advance must pay S125 a
year for the COURIER.
This rule begins from May 10,
1907, and will be rlgidly enforc.
ed without fear or favor. So if
your subscription has expired it
is important that you pay it by
that date if you want to, have
the advantage Of the old price
Of ST year.
Please don't neglect this mat.
ter and then blame us because
you become a victim of the ST. .2t

Shooting Aifray Near Salisbury.

Shooting ARRAY Near Salisbury.
| Chas. E. Standley of Sails
bury is under bond of S., 200,
with j. F. Adams as security, to
appear at the May term of cir.
cult court, which convenes at
Keytesville next Monday, May
6, to answer the charge of felon.
ious assault on Bud Jones, a
farmer of near Salisbury.
Standley and Jones' father are
close neighbors in Salisbury, and
trouble was precipitated between
the heads of the senior Jones and
Standley families growing out of
the depredations of the formers
chickens on Standley's prem
lises.
1t is said that Standley used
some pretty rough language to
the elder Jones, and when Bud
Jones ran across Standley in
Salisbury Saturday afternoon he
took Standley to task for abusing
his (Jones') father, and B I'D
Jones, it is also reported, made
some threats as to what he in.
tended to do to Standley. No
blows were passed at the time,
however, and it was supposed
that the trouble was at an end,
but Standley. filled with resent.
ment and malice over Bud Jones'
threats, went to Fabion Ginther's,
about two miles from Salisbury,
and got q shotgun and waylaid
Bud Jones when he started home
in surrey in company with his
six-year.old son and H. j. Nay

At point in front of the
country home of James Callison,
one mile northeast of Salisbury.
Standley stepped out when he
saw Jones coming in the surrey
and halted him and asked what
he meant by talking to him like
he did in Salisbury. Jon
scarcely had time to reply before
Standley raised the shotgun and
fired. In attempting to dodge
the charge of shot Jones fell from

ing through his hat. The wound
is serious, but is not considered
dangerous by DR.. T. J. Banning,
the ply sician who was called to
dress it.
After firing the shot, Stsndley
started on foot to Keytesville,
and when he reached the home
of Jas. E. Rice, near Scribner

Prairie Hill Academy Com
mencement.

fr8lrle Hill Is CnrlVlng VII.
lage, located on a beautiful
prairie, seven miles north and
three miles east of Salisbury,
and has all the lines of merchan-
dising represented by wide.
awake ousine ess men.
1t also has a Lank, and the
village is surrounded by pros.
porous, well-to-do farmers, who
live in attractive and commodi-
GUS country homes.
One of Prairie Hills institu-
tions that is doing a splendid
work in the community is the
Prairie Hill academy, conducted
by two brothers, E. R. and G. G.
Ca1lstead. Here is afforded an
opportunity for intellectual ele.
walton and education that is in.
valuable and that deserves the
most liberal Support, as was
amply proven by the commence
ment exercises held at the M. E.
church, South, in Prairie Hill
Thursday night OF last week.
There were five graduates
from the academy this year viz:
Messrs. Robt. E. Smith, George
Herbert Sears, J. Marvin Mo.
Adam, Anthony Sufferer and
Miss Mamie Z. Eagan, who
were assisted in rendering an
excellent musical and literary
program by the under pupils of
the school.
The first feature was the entire
| march which was followed by an
instrumental duet, IA Reverie, -
on the piano and cornet by Miss
Zulah Chrane and R. E. Smith.
Then came the invocation by
Rev. r. M. Dameron.
The next was chorus, "The
Merry Party" after which Rus
sell Palmer rendered a solo,
"Evaline.'
"The Making of a Gentleman
was the title of the essay read by
George Herbert Sears.
"Westward, Ho!"was the sub.
ject of the Grafton delivered by
Anthony Sufferer.
Miss Edith Brockman favored
the audience with the solo, ''La
Golondrina."
Expectation and Realization"
was the topic of Miss Mamie
c. Egan's essay.
A vocal trio, "The School
Master" was sung by Messrs.
Smith, Chrane and Sears.
"The Fate of Cladius and
Cynthia" was a select reading
by j. Marvin McAdam.
Drifting Leaves was the
title of the solo by Miss Myrtle
Young.
"The Value of Music'' was
enthusiastically expatiated up
on by r. E. Smith in his essay
A solo, 'Impromptu Muzzur.
ka," was interpreted on the
piano by Miss Zulah Chrane.
The address and presentation
of diplomas to the graduates was
by Prof. j. L. House, a mem.
ber of the faculty of Central
college of Fayette, whose re.
marks were replete with deep
thought in showing the wonderful
advancement that had been made
by mankind since the foundation
of the world, and the spea ker
held out the idea that nothing
now seemed impossible to those
whose energies and talents are
exerted in the right direction.
Following Prof. House's able
address, came q vocal octet,
"Sweet Hour of Prayer"
The closing address was de-.
ivered by Prof. E.. r. Carlstead,
president Of Prai RE Hill acad.

HAPPENED AT BAD TIME.
Minister'S Fall Significant In View OF
Previous Words.

In a small church in one of the min
ing towns of Pennsylvania was a pull.
pit both antique and unique. II was
about the size and shape Of a -four
barrel, was elevated from the floor
about four feet and was fastened to
the wall. The ascent was by narrow
winding steps.
A minister from a neighboring town,
q man Of great vigor and vehemence,
preached there one Sunday. While
preaching he bent forward and shout
ed out with great force the words OF
his text:
1.-THE righteous shall stand, but the
wicked shall fall"
Just as these words escaped from
his lips. the pulpit broke from its
fastening, and he fell out and rolled
over on the floor before his congre-
cation. In an instant he was on his
feet again and said:
Brethren, am not hurt, and ]
don't mind the fall much, but dc
hate the connection"
