I believed that the teachers of the two counties would have a greater love their pro- that they would be better equipped for their that they would have a for other after having ming- led and worked together for four weeks. While I expected much from the institute, I had no idea that it would be so great a success as it was. I had the pleasure of pres- at the organization of the North Carolina Assembly. I have most its since. I have also attended two sessions of the Alabama Association, i have never seen greater interest and more work than at Winterville. a number of teachers had been looking forward to the anything but pleasant anticipations.

Mr. Editor, before close let Mr. M.

We respectfully submit five reasons for earn- soliciting a liberal share of your patronage. 1st. Because we are independent, and refusal to hare anything to do with the Warehouse Combination. 2nd. We are conducting strictly a warehouse business, and are not trying to buy cheap tobacco, but use all means in our power to sell tobacco as high as possible, as our interest and the farmers are one and the same. 3rd. Because Greenville with her fourteen prise steam drying and stemming establishments, has ample ties and capital to handle the entire crop of the surrounding section. Her buyers have and contracts from every to- manufacturing country on the Globe. 4th. our relations with these order and contract buyers are of the most friendly and cordial nature, and we have ample means at our command to push every sale to the full limit of its value. Because, with all the bright tobacco manufacturing concerns of the world, domestic and export speculators, attend- every sale at the old Greenville Warehouse, with our de- termination and the hearty co-operation of every man con- with us, to use every effort in his power in the interest of our patrons, and the hearty support of the buyers, we are in position to sell tobacco as high as the highest.

Some Interesting Facts Worthy N. C, Aug. For many Pitt county has been the scene of much crime, and it is not uncommon when away from the comity to be by strangers, there been another minder, or burglary in Pitt this week This has been com. talk. If any one will care- fully inquire the facts, it will be found that during the last months of 1900 there were sixteen burglaries, live and many petty thefts and smaller crimes committed Pitt county. Since January 1st, 1901, there has no homicide and but one burglary committed, to at Grifton, and by the use of blood from my kennels these panics were caught, convicted and are now serving sentence in the State prison. There were no blood hounds in Pitt county last year except three small puppies owned by me, and they were too young for service. There can be no dispute but what the fact having these dogs easy reach where can be soon placed on the trail of the lawless has had a splendidly effect on that class of criminals who have upon the lives and property of the people of Pitt county. This comparison is worthy of all who are interested in the main- of law order. I have splendid stock of can blood hounds on bind ready to do service when the occasion re. quires. In my opinion the kennel of dogs I have today are a great j protection against lawlessness. These dogs are full blood are in the Rational of blood and it has been long established that American dogs arc superior trail- to the or other dogs. I am prepared to supply dogs of the very best quality to those ranting them. The following letter sufficiently explains H. . July 1901. it may is to certify that I bought blood of Mr. W. C. Hines, Greenville, N. which gave en tire satisfaction. Having, with these dogs, run down secured the conviction seven criminals in the space of six mouths and the wannest trail that I had was a hour trail. Very respectfully, Policeman N.
