Sledge, who will teach the 2nd grade in our school next session, is taking a thorough course of primary methods which will no doubt prove helpful to her as a teacher and the children of her grade. She is thoroughly enthused with the school of methods as taught at the University of Virginia which has become a power in the educational world of Virginia and many adjoining States. There are 1186 teachers registered for this session, more than have ever attended before.

"All sorts of courses of study are open. Thirty subjects are divided into many courses and are taught by experts from the University and elsewhere.

SENTENCE OF THIRTY YEARS. End of Powell Case -Defendant Sent to State's Prison for 30 Years- This Means for LifePowell Talks of the Crime- -The Submission to Murder In the Second Degree Satisfactory to Both Sides. The Powell murder trial ended abrubtly in Warren Superior court Wednesday, June 29th, counsel for both the prosecution and defense agreeing to a verdict of murder in the second degree, It became apparent when court convened that there would be a mistrial unless some agreement could be reached by counsel, as Juror Hicks continued in serious condition. After a conference between the two sides a verdict of second degree murder was accepted and the court gave its approval and sentenced the prisoner to the maximum term of 30 years in the State's prison. After the agreement had been reached ex-Governor Aycock, addressing the court, said: "Your honor, after consultation with attorneys and relatives, we have tendered a plea of murder in the second degree." Solicitor Kerr, arising for the State said: "The State accepts the plea and prays the judgment of the court." Immediately thereafter Judge Ward said: "The court approves the course taken by the prosecution and the defense.

I have no idea that the jury after hearing all the evidence would take to the plea of insanity and acquit the defendant. I have had considerable experience with criminal cases in the courthouse, six years as solicitor and six years on the bench. While there is some evidence of premeditation and deliberation, I do not believe there would be sufficient under the decisions our courts to sanction a verdict murder in of the first degree. I have no doubt that if the case had gone to the jury it would have reached the same verdict as is now entered." PRISONER TALKS OF CRIME. After the prisoner had been removed from the court house to his cell in Warren jail he made a statement to a newspaper rsporter.

"I heard them say on the he began, "that I cussed out the courts and threatened to kill Charlie Dunn. I never said a word against Charlie Dunn in my life. know, too, that no man ever cursed Charlie Dunn without getting knocked down. Mr. Powell told of various things that came out in the trial.

He remembered them accurately and said that while he recalled his daughter's story of his action the afternoon of the shooting, he had not a memory of it. hope God will throw me out of the window if I ever knew that I shot those men. Why, they were my friends. I like Paul Kitchin as well as I ever did. I always voted with him.

I wanted to speak him during the trial, but was afraid he was mad with me. I felt that way about lots of the witnesses who came up from Halifax. haven't anything against them. "The man I loved best of all was Charley Dunn, and next to him loved the dog that he gave me. And when I found myself i in jail on the charge of shooting my best friend, I never did believe it.

can't understand if I shot three times why I didn't shoot five. If I ever shot at Richard Kitchin or he at me, I didn't know it." Mr. Powell has been delivered to the penitentiary authorities at Tillery and begins his imprisonment of 30 years, hopeful that he may live long enough to get out and spend the remainder of his days at his home in Scotland Neck. And thus the curtain drops upon the last act in a tragedy which has turned more than one home into houses of mourning. There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable.

For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market It is taken internally in doses from drops to a teaspoonful.

E. CARTER, Ticket Agent. COUNTY DEMOCRATS, Convention in New Court House Saturday. COUNTY WELL REPRESENTED. Delegates to State, Judicial and Congressional Conventions.

The splendid Democracy of the county of Halifax was well represented at the county convention in the new court house Saturday. Every precinct was represented when the roll was called and speech making was deemed unnecessary. At 12, noon, Dr. I. E.

Green, acting chairman of the Halifax County Democratic Executive Committee, called the convention to order, and Albion Dunn, of Scotland Neck, was requested to act as temporary chairman and the representatives of the Democratic press were appointed temporary secretaries. On motion of W. E. Daniel the temporary organization was made permanent. Mr.

Daniel moved that each township be allowed one delegate to the State convention and that the three townships having the largest vote be allowed the three delegates at large, Weldon, Enfield and Scotland Neck. Motion was adopted and delegates to the State convention were then elected as follows, the first named being the delegate and the last the alternate: Butterwood -A. E. Carter, S.T. Thorne.

C. Dunn, of Enfield, any good Democrat from Halifax county to the Congressional convention, at Rocky Mount, will be entitled to a seat in the convention as a delegate. The vote for the various candidates in the State covention was then taken and resulted as follows: Walter Clark, for chief justice; Platt D. Walker, for associate justice; Brown, for Corporation Commissioner; no opposition and given the full vote of the county in the State convention, 15 each. R.

Manning, of Durham, for Associate Justice Supreme Court. The vote of the county convention was as follows: Allen 54 19-22. Manning 26 3-22. Roanoke Rapids uninstructed. This gives in the State convention a little over ten votes for Allen, and 4 and 1 a fraction for Manning.

Lee and Judge Graham were then placed in nomination for Corporation Commissioner. The result was Lee Graham 423, with Roanoke Rapids not voting. The next business was the election of a Democratic County Executive Committee. The following gentlemen compose this committee: Butterwood-A. E.
