To Eddie Berry, a young farmer of Roundtop, Chatham county, belongs the/credit of having put a stop, tem-porarily, at least, to some of the devil-ment that has been perpetrated here of late by outwitting two negroes who at-tempted to rob him Saturday night. Captain Forsyth Departs. Capt. W. VV. Forsyth, who has had charge of the recruiting stations at Greensboro, Charlotte and Asheville for the past two years, was transferred the first of the month to Fort Keogh, Mont., where he will resume regular duty in a few days. He is succeeded Berry, who is evidently uot quite as by Capt. M. K. Barroll. During Capt. unsophisticated as he looks, came to towu Saturday with a bunch of cattle, and during the day disposed of over fifty dollars' worth to H. S. Hudson, receiving the money for same in the presence of several colored people who frequent the cheap reslaurauts just across the railroad on South Kim. That night when Berry was putting up the Forsyth's service iu North Carolina he enlisted between 400 aud 500 men, who have entered different branches of the army, somegoing to the hospital corps, others to the cavalry, artillery or in-fantry. "And the men.from this pied-mont section," he declared, "make a very line and high-grade soldier." Capt. Forsyth is a native of Georgia rest of his cattle in a vacant lot back of and he received an appointment to I Hudson's store the two colored men j West Point while living iu Atlanta ! mentioned were loitering about and he ! from Congressman VV.

An immense crowd saw Baruum & Bailey's circus here Thursday, the at-tendance at the afternoon performance being fully twelve thousand. The show trains arrived late from Charlotte only to find that the McAdoO meadow, near the old C. F. A V. V. depot was so solt that the wagons could not be hauled over it, but after an hour's de-lay the WbittingtoD lot, on Ashe street, was secured and the tents were put up there. So great was the con-fusion caused by the combination of untoward circuhistanees that no pa-rade could be given, causing disap-pointment to the multitude that had assembled on the streets, but most of the crowd made the best of it and went to the show. All in all it was the best show that has visited Greensboro iu many years, the menagerie as well as the circus performance measuring up to the standard advertised. A per-formance was given at night, but it was cut to some extent so that the show could get away early. Mr. A. J. Kluttz, a clever young gentleman who is known to many Greeusboro people, has purchased an intej-est in Mr. John B. Farias' drug store, opposite the Guilford hotel, hav-ing given up the position of head pre-seriptiouist at K. VV. O'Hanlon's phar-macy in Winston to take advantage of the very attractive business opening here. The new firm will be known as the Fariss-Kluttz Company aud it will soon be incorporated under that name with a capita) stock of $2-3,000. With au established trade, a good location, and every other requisite the new com-pany can reasonably anticipate a very successful business career. ing equipment already decided upon and begin active operations at various points in the county. An engineer will soon be at work establishing grades on the roads to be improved. Alto-gether the outlook is ipiite promising for a realization of one of old Guilford's fondest hopes—a system of modern highways penetrating every section of the county. The Cotton Boll-Worm. Mr. Franklin Sherman, Jr., the state entomologist, has just gottou out a bul-letin ou The Cotton Boll-Worm. This is the second entomologist circular issued by the Department of Agricul-ture. The pest discussed is not the boll-weevil of Texas, which Mr. Sher-man says has uot yet appeared In North Carolina in its true form. The circular gives a complete description of the boll-worm, its habits, etc., and dis-cusses remedies. All inquiries for cir-culars, letters regarding insects, pests, etc., and specimens, should be sent to Franklin Sherman, Jr., Entomologist, Department of Agriculture, Raleigh, N. C. Clay Township Schools. We are requested to state that the public schools of Clay township will open next Monday, Nov. Kith, and patrons of the various schools iu the township are requested to meet at the schoolhouses on the Friday previous to see that everything is in order which may promote the general welfare of educational interests. Best Sale of the Season. Mr. VV. D. Palmer, of Level Cross, sold on the Greensboro market Friday a single load of tobacco for $167. It averaged a fraction under 17 cents per pound. Some of it sold as high as 35 cents per pound, while a good deal of it brought such prices as 29, 20, 18 and 161 cents. The tobacco was sold at the Planters warehouse. We think the condition of the market is more favor-able than it was a short time ago, and would not advise the further holding of leaf, especially Die common grades, KKUXHDI.K, GAMBLE »t Co. Van Ruth, a white man who came here from Randolph some time ago and does not stand very high iu the estima-tion of the police, is in jail charged with pocket-picking and carrying con-cealed weapons on show day. An old colored man named Frank Bowman, from High Point, found Ruth's band iu his pocket and clung to him until an officer was found. The oflicer saw the prisoner take a revolver from his pocket and attempt to drop it in the crowd. Ruth had a confederate who made good his escape.
