Mr. K. Smithwick, of Warren; has taken a position with the Lonisbarg' Sboe Store. -The im Crow" car of Hayes Fuller is quite popular for pic-nics and house parties. When an estate is divided according to law it means that the heirs get what is left after the lawyers get through.

Appearances would indicate that heaven sometimes helps those who have already succeeded in helping themselves Who says that Louiaburg is not a "city?" Our Bank and Postoffice observe national holidaya jdst like other big towns. Those who have giyen him work say that Louiaburg's new jeweler, Mr. P. well, certainly "knows how." See His advertisement. Our friend, Dick Griffin, of Wake-SiM, who was in our office one day this week, informs u4hat the crops'are very good in his section, and that the rain was welcomed by the farmers.

We learn that W. H. Mann. who. is building the residence of B.

F. Hawkins, by contract, will also build' a dwelling for Cooke, on Main street, near J. Barrow's residence. The old Presbyterian church is being torn down, the same having been bought by W. T.

Hughes, and the Presbyterians are taking steps to erect a new church, ihe Times hopes that they will succeed The celebration of the "glorious fourth" in Louisburg was prevented by rain. On the following day, however, there was some merry making by a number of the young people. A number of bicyclists bedecked their wheels with 'the national coigps. Kin well Tant, aged 86 ied at hia home in Harris' township.this county, oa last Saturday. Mr.

Tant passed thnueh Louisburg on his way home frour the war in 1865, and has never been in any town since remaining on his farm and attending to his own business His wife and several of his children survive him. Some ofof friends in the neighborhood between Moulton pest office and Mills tell -us that quite a heavy wind storm passed over that sec tion on Tuesday evening. Trees were uprooted and tops were twisted from their trunks, and a number of roofs were blown from out-houses, barns, In some places tobacco and corn ws uprooted aniT blown quite a distance. At Patrick Bledsoe's the wind was quite severe. The "House Party" folks who left town about two weeks' ago to spend some time rusticatingat the "Williams place," near Centerville, returned last Saturday and came home highly pleased with their stay in that delightful neighboi-hood.

They all speak in the highest terms of the many courtesies extended them by the good people of good old Gold Mine. Some of the best and most hospitable people jn the world reside in that township. -An Iowa editor decided, in a dream, to get out a paper that would be entirely satisfactory, and in which nothing would be printed that would offend any one. Consequently every item written was submitted to the different houses of the town and when an objection was made the item was "killed." The paper came out at the usual time, and when unfolded, was found to be nothing but a blank sheet. The editor had performed a miracle.

He had, in his dream, issued a paper to which no one could take offense. And it is the only way it could have been done. v-: Our "Old" friend BobLeonard. of Gold Mine township, came to town one day this week, by way of the "new road," whieji' comes into the Nashville road near Mr. Frank Ballard's and he makes heavy conplaint against the road overseers on account of the bad condition of the road between Ballard's and Lonisbarg.

He says that if something is notr done to fill up the great number of holes in that road pretty soon he will take it upon himself to walk to town and have' somebody indicted at the next term of court. Now we hope that no one will have to be indicted, and publish this in order that parties interested may take notice and govern themselves 'If A 1 y-j i i WHITE FRONT, 1 mi Bold one- rain Fifteen' I Wis 2 JX6 wer-THdn little monejr will Ko a Ion waja thing you want anJ will Iwglivl to uj EGERTON'S For this hot weather wo havo Coolers, Lcmou Squeezers and ICE CREAM We have the best HOT Get Rid LOUISBURG, N.

Harry Waitt being made one of the managers, and the failure of the Board to do 'so occasioned much disappointment and dissatisfaction. It was generally understood that a majority of the Board were favorable to his election just previous to the meeting, but owing to pres sure being brought to bear on them by those to wh oin they were indebted for their posi tions they-were forced to yield their wishes in the matter.

Cutting: A flair. There was a big negro pic-nic at Jack son 8 mill, sii miles east of Louisburg on the 4th. A large crowd was" present, and in addition to the many amusements which are had on such occasions, the psual "wind np" of negro being cut with a "razor" took place. Bud Hill, negro boy who was in Franklin county, against the orders of the Judre. was aft the pic nic, and like a good many others, imDibed too freely of "Dispensary" or "Branch" consequently the "usual" row occurred, and Bud came out second best.

He was very badly cut aoout the face and head by another ne- ro by the name of Dunston. Hill was brought to town in a vry bloody con dition, and the gashes had to be sewed by Dr. Bart.
