FIRE IN TIE COUNTRY.
Large Residence Destroyed In the
Northern Part OF Country.


Wednesday there was quite a
destructive fire in the northern
part of the county, a few miles
from the city and as a conse-
quence the large two story dwell
ing house belonging to Mrs.
Sarah McCown was completely
destroyed. 1t is not known how
the fire originated, as the build
ing bad not been occupied for
some time, but it is the general
belief that the blaze was caused
by fire bugs, las all indications
point to the fact that the house
was set on fire. We are told
that the house was insured for
81, 10000, and that its valuation
was in the neighborhood of ST.
10000. Mrs. McCown resides in
this city now and she did not
know of her loss until late We'd

From The Trinity Chronicle.

Augusta, ia, 10 Speak.
From The Trinity Chronicle.
An institute will be held at
Trinity College this summer for
the benefit of Durham and Person
county teachers especially, and all
other teachers who may desire to
attend. The institute will be
two weeks in length and will be-
gin June 20. The members of
the faculty of Trinity College
have been assisting Superintend-
ent c. w. Massey during the past
year in his teachers meetings, and
the original plan of the institute
was to continue this work at the
college with all institute. Supe;-
intendent Massey interested the
Board of Education of Person
county in the plan for an iusti-
tutc, and these two counties have
organized for the purpose OF con-
Quoting very strong two weeks
school in June.
Superintendent Lawton i. Ev-
aus, Of Augusta, Ga, who is both
city and county superintendent,
and who is well known through
out the United States, having lee.
tured several summers at Knox
vile, and whose reputation as a
school man is we'll known will be
one oil the principal teachers in
this institute. Superintendent
w. D. Carmichael, of the Dur.
ham city schools, and a part Of
the faculty Of Trinity College will
assist. The institute will be held
in the Duke building, and will be
under the direction Of Superin-
tendent {. w. Massey. There
will be about one hundred and
twenty-five teachers to attend
from these two counties, and
there will be in all probability
Others from adjoining counties.

Judge WinbOrne for Attorney General.

Mr.. Editor-I take great pleas
ure in writing a word in behalf
of Judge B., B. Winborne, of
Hartford county. who is a cam
didate for the Democratic nomi-
nation for attorney general.
/ was raised in the eastern
part of North Carolina. Judge
Winborne is personally known
throughout that section and is
regarded as an able and pro-
found lawyer. He has served
many years as chairman of the
county executive committee from
the first district. He has always
been known as an active work
ing democrat. He served in the
general assembly of 1895, 1906
and 1907. He is a man in the
prime of life, and has had TWEEN
ty-fve years experience at the
bar.
Iwould not apparse the claims
of any one. but it does seem tc
me that the Office of attorney
general requires a lawyer Of
knowledge and experience which
Judge Winborne has.
! am informed that a majority
of the members of the Durham
bar are in favor .of Judge Win
borne, and | sincerely hope thai
the democrats of Durham coun
ty will give him a good majority
at the coming primary.

became closely identified with the
work of one Of the city churches,

choir. Besides giving Trinity's

at all times, not only to those wlIo
