JOYNER. “The first new tobacco sold on the up country tobacco markets was sold in Winaton last week at 5 cents a pound average. | Mr. T. J. Gentry, of Roxooro, N. C., came in Tucsday evening. He expects to deal in the weed on this market the cuinlug season. Kinston expects to have its first sale Thursday, 15th. The open- ing break will continue throagh Friday and Saturday, pruvided they get tobacco enough to keep them at it that long. Tarboro will open the tobacco market there azain Sept. 4th. We understand that the warehouses have been rented by gvod men and they expect to do considera ble business there the coming year. We were shown a letter last Satu-day by Mr. G. M. Tucker from J. O. W. Gravely, of Rocky Mount, in whichthe writer savs that Mr. Chauncy, the owaer of the loop pav’ent, was in Rocky Mount a few days ago and expect. ed to come to Greenville, but ow ing to circumstauces was prevent ed. He says further that ,,he, Graveiy, at one time expecte take the agency for the loop in Bistern Carolina, ba: since he has found that he would be antago- nizing the interest of oar good farners he has abandoned that to idea. Good! We are informed that Mr. Bill Wilkinson. from near Farmville, has thes agency for Pitt county. Mr. Gravely says that Mr. Chaancy will hardly vis- it Greenville during the coming year. Yesterday Mr. A. L. Blow told the writer that right now there was inquiry being made about our town and county from three western men. One in Nebraska, one in California and one in Ken- tucky. Tbe Californian wanted to exchange a $10,000 farm for a Pitt county farm. He did not say what business the cther two wan‘. ed to enguge in, but said they were making inquiries about the country through the Greenville board of trade, letters directed to the bcard of trade. Tianere ts no better man to call the citizens to gether and organize a board of trade than Mr. Blow. He sees the necessity of it and kuows what ef- fect it will have toward develop- ing the town. We call on Mr. ‘| Blow to start the ball to rolling. GENERAL NEWS. In Baltimore a mother and three children, all girls, were ter- ribly burned by a gasolene ex- plosion.

He failed and nis wifs continues to keep Hawthorne stirred np. At last the extreme limit in the apparel of the New Woman seems tohave beea reached. Accord- ing to a Detroit newspaper, sev- ral bicycling girls of Coldwater, Michigan, have already outgrown the bloomer stage, and now ride on the streets and sutarbs of that great city clad in complete mas— culine costumes—knickerbockers, golf stockings and short jackets. 4 Going North in a Pew No. 205° to select my Fall goods.

The depot here is too small for the immense quantity of freight that is handled, and often the wareroom is so full there is no room for more. The _ tobacco men are getting up a petition to the railroad authorities to enlarge the warerouse sufficient to meet the requirements. . Cleaning Up. Today the Chief of Police has been issuing orders to the people of the town generally to havetheir premises cleaned aud limed with- in 24 hours. This is a step in the right direction and there has been a hustling around on the part of the people to comply with tne order.

RAaGsDALE, : Principa: | = CHANGED THEIR MINDS. Supreme Court Justices Overruled by Their Wives. It was a matter of some surprise that Justice Shiras, of the United States supreme court, should have changed his mind some time ago upon a matter of law, but it is not many months since the whole court changed their mind on such a mat- ter, and that in the course of a few davs, says the New York Sun. The case before the court was one arising out of a customs decision at this port, and the counsel arguing against the decision of the custom- house was a New York lawyer, then for the first time before the supreme court. The case turned mainly upon the question whether an article of importation should or should not be -lassed as a sauce. The custom house had called it a sauce, and taxed it accordingly. ment maintained this contention, and, of course, the New York law: yer sought to show that the article should not be classed as a sauce. When the supreme court came to consuit upon the case their unani- mous opinion was favorable to the contention of the government, and one of the justices was instructed tc prepare a decision in favor of the custom house. The justice, on re- turning home, told his wife of the case, and indicated the ground of the decision; whereupon the lady told him in pluin words that the justices of the supreme court did not know what they were talking about, and had agreed upon an unjust decision. The lady was entirely clear that the article in dispute could not properly be called a sauce and openly ridi- culed the court. The perplexed justice, instead of preparing the decision in accordance with the instructions of his breth- ren, did nothing in the matter, but at the next opportunity unfolded to the other justices his Bwife’s view’ of the matter and asked them to seek domestic counsel on the case and report at the next consultation of the court. When that consultation came round the justices, having taken feminine counsel. all reported against their original view that the article in- volved in the case should be classed as @ sauce, and accordingly the jus- tice originally charged with the task of preparing a decision in favor of the government was now instruct- ed to prepare one in favor of the New York lawyer’s client. It thus happened that the lawyer won his first case before the supreme court because the wives of the justices knew more than the court itself. Hotel Keepers of the Country.
