A Convict Killed.

Willie Smith, colored, one of the
prisoners on the chain gang, now
working the roads in this section,
was shot and killed instantly near
the camp Saturday morning, while
attempting to make his escape.
Smith broke to run in thick cluster
Of bushes. Three shots were fired
by the guards, but only one took eff
feet, that enc entering under the
right shoulder blade and PASSED out
through his left breast, no doubt
penetrating his heart, for he fell
dead.
Smith was brought to the roads
from Northampton county about
three weeks previous and was SEN
fenced two years for horse stealing.
His people live at jackson.
This makes the third man that has
been killed since Superintendent A.
T. Dickens has been in charge Of the
chain gang, and it has been about
three years since the one before this
one was killed, and that was while
the convict came was located near
Weldon.

A BUSINESS GOVERNOR.

The Charlotte Chronicle of recent
date says:
ct was predicted and hoped that
Hon. Locke Craig would be known
because of his works as "Tne Good
Roads Governor. The term is en-
tirely too narrow. Mr.. Craig is pam
ming out to be not only good roads
Governor, but genuinely practical
business Governor. Regardless of
his encouragement of the good roads
movement, if Mr.. Craig succeeds in
bringing the railroads to terms on
the freight rate question-and there
seems to be no doubt of this-and
get the constitution revised with es-
pecial reference to the matter of tax
alton, he will have accomplished
greater things than any Governor
since Aycock. Mr.. Aycock's work
for education in North Carolina will
never be surpassed in Importance by
anything that may be accomplished
by''any Tar Heel Governor, and it will
be long time before another Gov
ernor has an opportunity to do so
much as Mr.. Craig has undertaken. !"

Stockholders Of Scotland Neck Bank
Held Annual MeeiiDg-EleCt Oil
GERS and Plan for New Building.

The annual meeting Of the stock
holders of the Scotland Neck Bank
was held in the office of the bank
Thursday, April Oath. 1t was a
pretty full meeting, practically all
the stock being present or represent
ed. The officers of the bank made
their reports which showed the bank
to be in fine condition. The earn
ings for the year were about Is per
cent which, after deducting- 8 per
cent dividend, leaves neat sum to
be carried to the surplus account,
that is now $13, 800.
Mr.. Archibald Mcdowell. who has
served the bank as president for
more than twenty years, was re-
elected; as was also P. C. Gregory,
vice-president; J. Harper Alexander,
Jr., cashier; and Hugh Johnson. as
sistant cashier. The following di-
rectors were elected: N. B. Josey,
G.. Hoffman, P. C. Gregory, Mamie
Hoffman. r. E. Robertson, R. M.
Johnson, F. P. Shields, A. Mellow.
ell, Hugh Johnson, P. L. Salisbury
and j. Harper Alexander, Jr.
The stockholders further discuss
ed the plan CT the bank owning its
own home, and to this end COM
mittee was appointed, consisting of
Messrs. G. Hoffman, N. B. Josey, R.
M. johnson and Frank P. Shields, to
secure the lot, plans, specifications,
etc., and report to a meeting Of the
directors to be called by the cashier,
for authority to proceed. We I'M
derstand that the lot on the corner
of Main and 10th streets, with SO
feet front and running book 100
feet has already been purchased and
that it is an assured fact now that
these old wooden buildings will be
removed and a modern two story
brick building, to cost about $4,000,
erected before the close of this year.
The corner room will be occupied as
the home of the bank and the room
next to it will be a very nice location
for the post Office, provided better
quarters are not found before this
building is completed.
This new bank building is now an
assured fact and we know it will add
much to the appearance Of this sec
ton of the town. We say let this
kind of good work reach out to
other sections Of the town and con-

to see the position given to Mr.. Boy

anti-prohibitionist and to put a man
with such views in this position
would do the cause no good.

Why Use l.. & M. Semi
Mixed Real Paint.

Because it's economical. Because
it is pure White, Lead, Zinc, and
Linseed Oil. Because it's the high
est grade quality paint that can be
made. Because when the user adds
3 quarts of Oil to each l gallon of
the l.. & NJ. Semi Mixed Real Paint.
it makes II gallons of pure paint at a
cost of about 81 go per gallon. This
saves the user about 60 cents a gal
Ion on all the paint used. The L. &
N. is and always has been the high
est grade and most perfect paint
produced.

Insured Famous Hymn.

"Jesus, Lover CT My Soul" is 8
hymn around which many tradttions

story connected with its origin may
be legendary, but it is no less beauti
ful. Its author. Charles Wesley, was
sitting ct his desk by an open win
dow when bird pursued by hawk

hawk feared to follow it. The Incl
cent inspired Wesley to write his
famous lines.

Editor Joe King, of the Durham
Herald, puts it this way:
Good roads cost money and a
county that wants a system of good
roads may have to increase the tax
rate, but in this event the people
would be getting something for the
money paid out, which is not always
the case in tax matters"

lot of bur clover growing, and great
fields of red clover. 1t has only been
q few years ago when it was said
that bur clover would not grow in
this section, but our farmers are
finding it different now. This clover
is said to be the very finest kind Of
