At the picnic in Salem last Saturday
we heard considerable talk OF the new
county scheme, and from wha, we heard
and could gather, the reascA for the de-
sired change is because OF the good
roads promised them by the promoters
OF the new county. II those good peo-
pie will be 3 little more patient with
our supervisor and give him . chance
10 complete some work that Is neces-
sary be is going 70 put the gang 10 that
section and work those roads completely.
Mr.. NcFa6din has told US thatic his de-
sire 10 get over in,o Salem as soon IS

a. ". Phelps pleaded guilty yesterday
TO the charge OF bisamy in the cs'::rt At
Kines:ree, but on account Of his attic
sion Judge Memminser suspended the
sentence. Were it not for the mans con-
dition the judge would have sent him

swenty-one years Phelps will be
taken 70 his home in Greenboro, y. C..
This is oce OF the most pititul cases %
record IN this State, and !: should Serve
as warning 70 girls 70 oe more care
full how they make friends with ssrans-
ers. No womac should take the risk
o. marrying a man until she knows
him we'll. IN this case, q stranger blight
ed the life OF young girl, aHd crushed
the heart Of wife living 10 another
State, and yet true 70 her VOWS. when
the man who had crushed her and
blasted the future OF al innocent but
foolish girl, became afflicted in a
strange land among strangers, she
bound Up her wound, and went 70 her
husband TO nurse him 10 bis illness,
and perhaps when be is taken home
this same wronged wife will have 70
provide the living for him. His afhic-
,ion looks as If visitation from above.
