Tuesday was spent in the enttrprising

this county the business growth of the
town has been marvelous.
As many as a dozen three to four story
prize-houses and very near 'as many ware
houses have been erected, and business
men from different parts of the State,
with their money, have come here and
are doing prosperous business. Besides 1
there are a number of nice residences go

The teachers of the county are out

Like many other counties the per capita

success.

road is tbe best in the State for trucking
purposes.

of the Gazette. He met us in Wilming
ton and handed us the cash for a number
of subscribers, of whom he secured their
names and sent in. Why can't others do
like Rev. Kornegay, and in this way help
the Gazette?

Notes From Oxford.
Mr. Editor: We, of the old historic
town of Oxford, rejoice to know that you
have your well won seat in -the General
Assembly of North Carolina. We believe
you to be well worthy of the honor, and
wish you great success and final triumph.
Our schools, taught by Rvs. W A. Pt
tillo and G. C. Shaw and Miss Lilian B.
Crews as principals, are well attended
and in a flourishing condition.
Rev. Pattillo is not leaving a stone un
turned in -raising funds to rebuild the
First Baptist Church of this place that
was blown down last fall. He deserves
aid from the brethren of the Baptist con
gregations of the State.
Rev. Pattillo had th honor of being
invited to deliver the Emancipation Ad
dress, January 1st, in Poittmouih, N. H.
We learn from Northern papers that he
did credit to both himself and the race.
Our public school teachers all have the
blues about now. The Democrats have
enjoined the Board of County Commis
sioners and they can't do any financial
business until the court decides the case.
Wishing you a happy and prosperous
New Year, I am,
Yours truly, J. B. K.

Latta TJnsversity will be closed during
the Christmas holidays for all the session
for the purpose of rebuilding the bu ll
inga that were consumed by tire last May,
and also additional buildings. The Uni
versity is located in the village of O er
lio, N. C, one and one-half miles west of
tbe capitol building in the city. The lo
cation is the very best for a school, being
out of the busy city, but within ea
reach by means of the electric street cars.
It is enough to say, that there has not
been a single case of ceriuus illness since
the establishment of the school. Each
dormitory is heated by stoves and hearths,
bo every necessary comfort is Fecured.
The terms are very reasonable $7 50 per
month. Those desiring to reduce their
expenses by work will be taken at the
lowest possible rates: young men $6 40
per .month ; young women $5.40 per
month; day Btudents $1 per month. A
small incidental fee will be charged.
The school will reopen on the 7th day
of October, 1897. Our purpose is to make
it one of the largest schools in the South
for the race. Law and Medicine will be
added. The institution is wholly non
sectarian in its religious instruction or
influence. Yet earnest attention will he
given to Bible study, -applying its truths
to daily life and conduct, that a thorough
Christian character may be obtained. It
is open to all students of either, sex.
None but competent teachers will be em
ployed. For further information, address the
President, Rev. M. L. Latta, D. p.
I will letve for the North and Europe
the latter part of December or the first
of January, and will return time enough
to have buildings completed by the re
opening of the school. The University
will contain eight buildings.
