day. The resignation of Mr, \v\
S. Blakeney as president was accepted,
and Mr. L. L. Parker was
elected to this office. Mr. R. II.

nance committee. The usual 5
per cent semi-annual dividend
was declared, and $500 added to

UNION COUNTY NEWS |
Monroe, Jan. 7.?The State1
Bank of Wingate was entered
Tuesday night by a burglar who
broke the plate glass in the front
door and made an entrance in
that way. A number of matches
were burned before the safe and
At _A. ? ? ? *
ine siuds were leu lying on the
floor. The burglar evidently
took a good look at the safe, but
he did not open it. The cash
drawer was pulled partially open
but 700 pennies in the drawer
were not taken out, and in all
probability the burglar did not
see them, for they were in a
box in the back part of the drawer
and the pennies was the only
money not in the safe. It is not
known what time of nigbt the
bank was entered.
A memorial service will be
held at the Presbyterian Church
on next Sunday evening to the
honor of the late Robert Ney
McNeelv, who recently came to
his death in such a tragic manner.
Short addresses will be
