From this time en two and three

received by those who are in society
and before the White H >use Cotillion

lieutenants and the heavy dancing ?

ample tixcu-.it for the protracted summer
leaves of absence. A novel t

Cropsey's dead body was found Friday
in Pasquotank river. After
thirty-seven days of anxiety and fake
reports and the lavish expenditure of
money to solve the mystery of Ella 1
Maude Cropsey's disappearance, Pas- 1
quotnnk river gave up its dead at 10 1
o'clock this morning.
Nellie's body was located on the
river bottom by J. D. Stillman, a
fisherman, who hurried word to S. 1
W. Turner, a member of the citizen's
committee of five. The n?*ws of the
find spread like a prarie fire, and
soon a great crowd of exoited people 1
had collected. Justice \V H. Crop 1
sey, the girl's father, was summoned.
Almost overcome with emotion he
pushed through the crowd and stood '
beside the corpse, where it had been
tenderly laid near the bank. There-, I
was a hush as he looked upon his
daughter's form, but only for a
minute istice Cr??psey soon pro
nounced the b>dy bef re him the remains
of hi* missing Nellie. Word

seemingly suff'-red most, to the sisters

There were weeping and cries of
grief and they would not be consoled.
The corpse was found out in the
river nearly opposite the Croptey
home. Later. Coroner Fearing was
notified and be had summoned a jury
who viewed the retn-tius iu a small
house on the Cropsoy premises. Wituea?ee
told how the find was wade,
and there was evidence to show con
clusively that the body was Nellie
Croppy's.
A careful examination w.ts made
by physicians. The body its lf,

state of preservation.

. THE ANTI-PISTOL LAW.
Merchants Said to he Paying no
Attention to It.
vuiuu'ut special to Newt and
Courier:?It seems that attention it
again being attraced to the Concealed
Weapon Act, which was passed at
the last session of the General Assembly.
Dealers aeeui to have lost
sight of the legislation and do not
appear to be at all concerned about
the coming embargo against ordinary
Eistols, or the sales must be very
eavy and supplies that are now
ordered can he readily disposed of.
The Aot in question provide# that
(Vom and after the 1st of July, 1902,
it shall be unlawful to carry, whether
concealed or not, any pistol less than
twenty inches long and three pounds
in weignt.
Again the Act says it shall he un*?
lawful to ofh-r lor sale or transport
for sale or use into this Stare any
piscol of leas length or weight.
It is quite Uk ly that the Aot will
be attacked iu the Courts and that
the first onslaught will be on the
"personal use" line, the same as in
the dispensary contests.
The dispensary law has had a long
and a stumpy road to travel in the
courts, but it seems to have come out
{irettv well in the end, so far as the
cgal contest is concerned, and some
folks say the fight against the Concealed
Weapon Act, which may look
revolutionary, is likely to end the
same way, and that the Courts may
even refuse to sustain the "personal

There is no mistake about the
Ma?ute being revolunouary in its
effects.
As yet there is no concert of action
to fight the matter in the courts as it
is entirely too soon to do so.
