Rev. T. J. Ogburu preached a special sermon on temperance at the Methodist Protestant church at 3:30 o'clock Sunday afternoon, taking for his subject The: Vance County Ox," his remarks being based on the 29th Terse of the 21st chapter of Exodus But if the ox were wont to push with his horn iu time past, and it hath been testified'to his owner, and he hath not kept him iu but that he hath killed a man or a woman the ox shall be stoned, and his 'owner shall be put to death. The house was full, many persons no doubt being attracted through curiosity, knowing 'the positive manner of the man and his hatredof the liquor traffic, expecting him to say many very rough thiugs in his sermon.

But in this they were disappointed. Mr. Ogburn said he had no quarrel with the liquor sellers, but it was the fellows who legalize the making and the selling of; the death-dealing, home-wrecking, soul-destroying stuff, that he was after. He spoke at considerable length and while he shelled the woods and poured hot Shot into the camp of many of his hearers, he said nothing to give offense save in the sense that the truth hurts some times." He read from the writings of distinguished men on the subject of intem perance and the evils of the liquor traffic, quoting from such sources as Dr. Peck, Bishop! Fobter, Col.

Robert G. iDgersoll, aud others. The li Indictment of King Alcohol," pronounced by the last named gentleman in a famous speech made in Chicago some years ago, was one of the most elcL quent and at the same time vivid pictures of the terrible and blasting effects of the liqour curse we have yet. seen or heard, notwithstanding the source from which it came. And to these Mr.

Ogburn added his own testimony and denunciation, showing, if further evidence were needed, his hatred of the whole business of making, selling and drinking liquor. He spoke about the continuance of the traffic in Henderson, which he termed the "Vance County Ox," and gave his unreserved opinion of church members wh5, by their acts, he said, had been the cause of his being turned loose in Henderson to push with his horn again as he had done in time past. Mr. Ogburn said that in his zeal, viewing this terrible thing as he did, he had made I mistakes and possibly may have injured a cause he was trying to help, but he would rather take a wrong stand on the right side than a right stand on the wrong one. A Remarkable Case.

Mr. Walter Wheeler, of the Washington Mills, Lawrence, for two years afflicted with virocose veins, accompanied by a troublesome eruption, was completely cared after taking only eight bottles of Ayer's Sarsaparilla.

The County Commissioners mat in extra session Saturday, in compliance witli the order of Judge Connor made iu the mandamus proceedings argued before him in Raleigh on Tuesday; of last week, to pass upon the question of granting license to sell liquor.

Chairman Dunn who was absent on account of sickness at the regular meeting, the first Monday, was present, but Commissioner Fleming -was still unable to attend. I Counsel for tho saloon men moved for a continuance uutil Mr. Fleming could be present, upon the ground that at least two of the sitting members, judging by their former acts, holding the views they were prejudiced against the case. Mr; T. T.

Hicks, who appeared as counsel on the other side, objected, and some sharp spatting followed between that gentleman and Messrs. Pittman Shaw and Mr. A. C. ZoIlicofTer, attorney for the Board.

It transpired that Mr. Hicks had been employed to fight the case, and for a short while it looked like there was going to be a pretty lively time of it before the end was reached. Iu justice to Commissioners Purefoy and Rogers we slate here that Mr. Hicks had not been employed by them, as might have been understood by his remarks at the' -but by private citizens. In the absence of Mr.

ZoIlicofTer at the previous meeting Mr. Hicks had been esked to advise the Board, but his appearance at this meeting was at the instance of outside persons. Finally the Commissioners retired to a private room for consultation and when they reappeared, Mr. Zollicoffer made a brief talk explaining the position of Mr. Purefoy, saying that while he did not mean to sacrifice any principal in the matter, and as an individual he still held his own views concerning this question, the Judge having ruled that his interpretation of the law was not the correct one, he did not propose to go back on the action of the Boarcf at its previous meeting and yvould stand by the agreement then made, of which the following is the record It is agreed by the Commissioners with Pittman Shaw, attorneys for J.

J. Loughlin, W. W. Reavis, S. S.

Whitten, E. X. Jackson, J. W. Ponton, D.

C. Loughlin and J. B. Powell, that mandamus proceedings be insti tuted iu only one of the applications of the persous above named for retail liquor license and that the decision of the case shall be regarded as in all. It was also agreed between counsel and the Commissioners that no further evidence would be introduced as to these parties, though this was' not made a matter of record.

Trrepplicants having at the first meeting presented evidence as to their moral character, which however, was not regarded under the action of the Commissioners, holding the views they did at the time, motion was made to grant license, which was done. Mr. Hicks offered to introduce further testimony and thought if good cause might be 6hown why one or all of the peutious should not be granted, he oughLo be heard, but the Chairman ruled against him, saying the Board had come to an understanding and that the matter had been settlad by the agreement already made.
