Of course, the same the meeting last was one of politics, and it appears to have tow well handled. We do not believe that the formerly passed refusing to pool rooms could have been n pealed had the other three members of the board been on hand to cast their ballot in the matter, and are sorry that the four members present favoring pool rooms saw their duty to lake the that they did. One member the board remarked this morning that he would do all in his power to repeal the en last night, and that the very first time his supporters were present at the meeting of the board, he would call the matter again, and demand that some action he taken.

At tho bottom of the checks of the firm are printed the names Joyner and Sugg, with a blank line for the nature of the person the check. It was on this blank line that Gray wrote Mr. name, and proceed- ed to offer It at Its face value.

Laugh- In for the possession of a tract of land in the southern section of county. It Is not true as stated that at November term, 1910, it was de- that I could make no claim on the land. The truth is no decision made at that or any other term of court which affected my right to the land. The simple facts are these Mr. R. T. Wilson, my father, claim- ed to own the parcel of land known M the Mill Pond and for years he occupied it and used it as his Ir. 1899 he conveyed it with a lot of other land to me, and I have occupied it and used it as my own. Some years ago Capt. ho then owned the Avon farm, cut some timber In the Mill Pond and I sued him for trespass. At November term of Pitt superior court the case lame on for trial and after I had in- my testimony and the judge had intimated that I had not out a case I took a non-suit. It Is therefore absolutely true that was decided in that case. I have continued to work upon the land and last week the present own- of the Avon farm took out a criminal warrant against me which was heard by Mr. C. D. Rountree. a Justice of the Peace. The Justice found me guilty and I have appealed to the superior court, where the case will be heard in November, and then we will see who Is sustained. J. P. WILSON. Greenville, Sept. What is believed to be careless handling of a pistol resulted last Saturday afternoon in the death of a boy teen years old, living In the section of the county. While it la not known exactly whether the boy was a suicide or if he came to his death by accident, It Is believed that the latter course is the more prob- able. With another boy, went out about o'clock Saturday morn- to look for cows in a pasture, and both of the boys had guns. They hunted for cows and roamed the woods for the greater portion of the I morning and far into the afternoon, lit was about o'clock in the after- noon when mounted a log and began looking for a tick which he had crawled on him. Theron Daniel, the other boy who was with him, stated that when he himself j stepped from the log, he heard the gun fire. Looking around he saw Hardison fall, and heard him e- I claim. He struggled about two or three minutes and died, I Daniel ran to the house and told the boy's father. To the coroner's Jury the father of the dead boy said that the young low was found lying with bis head and his hands in mud. and that it was in this position that the coroner's jury found him. Coroner J. C. Green held the In- quest yesterday morning, and found that came to his death at the hands of a pistol in his own hands. MYSTERY UNSOLVED.

Seven hundred thousand pounds of tobacco Is the most that has been on this market during the present season, and yesterday's was one of the only three that have been blocked this year, thought It was much the larger of tho number. Two ware- houses In all failed to dispose of all the weed on their during the day, and their sales continued until this morning. of the first sale today beginning with the houses scheduled, the two selling forces went to the houses that failed to get through yesterday.
