Big Monday.
The crowd .“here last Monday,
which was Tradss Day, Was not ss
l&rg as usual and there were not
so many people from' a great dis-
tance, although the streets were
well packed and the sidewalks crowd
ed during, the early part of the after
noon. However, considering the
disagreeable weather, the crowd
was much larger than was expected
and our merchants have no cause
to grumble over the business they
got, for sU were busy. There , was
but little street trading, compared
with what JO usually done on
these days, and but few fine horses
were shown.
Kills Large Wolf.
J. W. TaUferro and Will Nor-
man brought to town In their auto-
mobile last Friday night a large
wolf which they "had killed /With
a shot gun at about 8 o'clock that
evening. They were returning trom
Newcastle and were about three
miles this side of that town
when the wolf attempted to oaoes
the road In front of them. Win
Norman who was driving the oar,
reseed hie speed and ran up
within seventy-five feet of the
wolf when Mr. Taliaferro fired
and killed, it. The gup was loaded
with 7 1-2 chilled' shot, which
le very small for large game. The
wolf was a very large one.
