Fire Alarm, But No Fire.

Between Z and 7.30 o'clock
Friday evening, while cold rain
and mud made it particularly
disagreeable out of doors and
particularly agreeable beside a
fire indoors, the inevitable alarm
of fire was given. People rush
ed out in the cold and rain and
mud. Some were seen rushing
up Third street and it was said
that the fire was at DR.. ]. D.
Regan's, on Second street. At
ter many had tramped about in
the mud awhile it became pretty
we'll established that there was
no fire at all. DR.. Regan Won
dered if folks had turned out to
lynch him without cause. No one
seems to know who turned in the
alarm or whether it was an alarm
turned in falsely, or a false alarm
turned in innocently.

Murder in Alfordsville- Negro
Kills Son-In-Law.

Furman Wallace, colored, about
% years old, was shot and killed
by his father-in-law, Eli South
erland, near McRimmon's store,
8 miles southwest of Maxton,
Alfordsville township, late Satur-
day afternoon. Sheriff McNeill
and Coroner Rancke went to the
scene Of the murder yesterday
and found that Wallace was shot
through the heart. The Sheriff
did not find Switzerland, but it
is thought that he will surrender.
He is a hard-working negro and
bears a good reputation. WAL
lace was a worthless negro and
Switzerland had warned him
away from his home repeatedly,
it is said.

Lumberton Drug Co. Receives
Order for2OOOunces ofSrych-
nine---Wanted to Poison
Squirrels.

The Lumberton Drug 90. re-
ceived an order the other day
that was a caution. 1t was for
200 ounces Of strychnine!1t came
from the far State of Washing
ton, Ephrater town, through Mr..
]. D. Sledge, a brother of Mr..
R. S. Sledge, manager of the
Lumberton Drug Co., and it is
wanted to poison squirrels that
are playing havoc with wheat.
Some idea of the size of the order
may be gathered from Mr..
Sledge's statement that his drug
store would not sell over half an
ounce of strychnine in the ordi-
nary course of business in two
years, and he doubts if there is
a wholesale house in the South
that carries that much in stock.
Two hundred ounces! That's
some strychine, when you come
to think about it.

ident and all offices were declar-
ed vacant. Mr.. Caldwell had

A. Mclean, in a happy talk,
placed him in nomination for re-
election, and he was unanimous
ly elected, the office being prac-
tically forced upon him again in
such a way that he could not re.
fuse. Col. Mclean was elected
vice president, and Mr.. R. H.
Crinchton was elected secretary
and treasurer to succeed Mr.. A.
P. Caldwell, who resigned, both
being elected by a unanimous
vote. Mr.. Caldwell has devoted
much time and work to the in.
terests of the club since it's or.
ganization, and Col. Mclean
voiced the sentiments Of the en-
tire membership in stating that
he deserved the thanks of the
club for his work, for which he
did not ask or receive compensa'
ton. Five members of the ex
ecutive committee, of which the
president and secretary-treasurel
are members ex officio, were tc
be elected and the following
were nominated in the order ir
which their names appear: H. B
