Saturday night between eleven and one o'clock the fine new res- of Mr. M. 0- Blount, on corner of Railroad and James one of the handsomest homes in the town was burned to the ground The fire was caused by the accidental overthrowing of an oil stove, and it made Rich rapid headway that though Mr. his son Marvin, and Mr. J. D Bryan labored strenuously to extinguish the flames, it was apparent that the house doomed Practically could saved from the second floor where the fire The lack of water prevented any checking of the fire. It oily owing to the united ard efforts of neighbors that the fire did not spread to the buildings. At one time the Blount hotel, feet away, caught fire. The heavy rains of Friday night and Saturday were fortunate for the town, for without them no power could have prevented the rapid spread of the flames and the probable destruction of the town the rain of sparks and cinders blown upon the roofs by the high wind. Mr. Blount had just completed his home and but for a recent having blown down his wind mill would have had water in his house sufficient to have saved it. His loss is about insurance Mr- J. D. Bryan. Mr. sales- man, and Miss Jones, of the milliner for Blount Bro., who were inmates of home, lost all their The management of the graded school are happy to announce that Senator Lee Overman, of North Carolina, will deliver the before the graduating class on Wednesday, May the, eighth. The patrons of the school consider themselves more than fortunate in having this to hear the State's most graceful, ornate and forceful speaker; and hope that every one that car., will come to hear this great leader of the people and true friend of education he graduating exercises will cur immediately after the ad- dress; the certificates will be presented the five by Senator Overman. The school children and the of the school enjoyed a rare treat on Friday night, March 29th, in the lecture of Hon. Blount, of Wilson It was truly a feast of reason and flow of soul. It was a succession of word pictures, of humorous and witty sketches and anecdotes and burn- eloquence Any one who has not heard Mr Blount has a treat in store for him. We hope to have him in Bethel again- Hon.

The people of Pitt county should therefore well understand that it is now or never. They can secure the school if they but they do it this year, not next, in fact they must make their decision on the 14th of May, 1907. If on that day they vote for bonds they will record them- selves in favor of securing the school. If they vote against bonds they will by that act say they do not want the school es- in their county We cannot believe that any of our people will so vote.

Sufficient proof has been secured to establish the fact that certain brands are infringements and in of the trade mark laws, yet the trade will continue to be imposed upon these until the suit already entered and now pending to protect Schnapps is decided. A great of these imitations are to be as as Schnapps, but there is only one gen- Schnapps. Be sure the letters on the tag, and stamped on the plug under the tag spell S-C-H-N-A-P-P-S and then have most wholesome tobacco produced, with just enough sweetening to preserve the mild, juicy, stimulating quality of the leaf tobacco. Expert tests prove that this flue cured tobacco, grown in the famous Piedmont region, re- quires and takes less sweetening than any other and has a wholesome, stimulating, satisfying effect on chewers. If the tobacco you are chewing don't satisfy you more than the mere habit of expectorating, stop fooling yourself and chew Schnapps tobacco.

It will, therefore, make this county stand first, educationally, in the State, because as is the teacher so is the school- Holding this position will increase the value of every piece of property in the county. It is an indisputable that wherever is in the forefront there property has the best values. II. It is now a contest between a number of counties as to where this school shall be located.

Whether we wish it this school be established some- where in Eastern Carolina. Wherever it is located we will have to pay the same amount taxes for it that we would if we had the school.

You can run no risk in voting this bond issue because ii the is not located here no bonds can be issued even after we have voted to authorize it. This would be what he would pay with valuation of property. As the valuation of the property increases his payments would decrease. The citizens on the 7th day May, vote on a proposition to authorize the Alderman of that town to issue interest hearing bonds. It is certain that the vote on tins proposition will be in of issuing bonds to be used by the Board of Alderman as far as may be necessary in locating the school in the coon of Pitt. The citizens Greenville in addition to paying the awl on the town bonds will be taxed also their share of the Interest on the county bonds so that this is clearly a case where the in- of the town and county are the same and one in which they ought t work harmoniously to-g-ether to accomplish this great result which will I be alike beneficial to Those who have made such a stubborn and gloriously success- Might in getting the bill through the did so with full faith that our people would stand by us when it comes to locating this school.
