Mr. W.B.Thompson died at his home at Biackstock of paralysis. He suffered | the first stroke in Match, 1591, and since that time has had several and has been confined to his home for months, until death relieved him of his snffer ingMr. Thompson was an old Confederate soldier and foaght nnder Genera! Wheeler. The funeral services were held ou Sunday at the Blackstock Presbyterion Church, Rev. Mr. Kirkpatrlck officiating, and the body was ioterred in the graveyard of Catholic Presbyterian Church. IT SHOULD BE STOPPED. The siioirshot fiend is a^ain at work. We notice that two panes of glass in the rose-window in the front of the I Episcopal Church have been broken and one of the side windows has also been brokeo, It is very evident that these windows were broken by a slingshot, and while we believe that it was done through thoughtlessness and not maliciously, stili such reckless shooting should be stopped before other property in town is injured. Complaint3 are often heard of the reckless shooting of slingshots and I air gun? by boys around town, and | we hope that in the future they will be more careful in the use of them. We believe that if their attention is called to it they will have more regard for other peoples property and we irusr. inai a en^gesuon win na suificient. ATTEMPTED BURGLARY. About one o'clock on Wednesday night John Russell heard a noise and thought that some one had entered his store andsot npto investigate, and he and his wife looked all about but saw no one. John then raise-d the | window and looked around bat saw no one. He knew nothing firther uutil next morning. It was clisccrered on Thursday morning that som j one had taken an aagur and bored a hole in the back door of Mr. A. B. Cath cart's store.
