The Goldsboro correspondent of the Raleigh Post Says of Prof. Miller now in this city : “Prof. Otis A. Miller has left our city for New Bern, where he ha* opened a “Black and White Studio.” While here he taught a large class, all of whom are high in their praise of Prof. Miller as an artist. I have critically examined some of the work turned out by his pu pils and it is remarkable, their proficien cy in so short a time.” The kidneys are small but important organs. They need help occasionally. Prickly Ash Bitters is a successful kidney tonic and system regulator. Dr. E. E. Dixon & Co. WILL VISIT NEW ORLEANS.

The pastimes and games that from time immemorial have been asso ciated with All Hallowe’en were indulged in on this occasion. Roasting chestnuts, bobbing for apples, etc. caused much merri ment. Fortunes were told, which proved very fascinating, and the evening was one of thorough en joyment.

Will Evans was pardoned yes terday by Governor Terrell, and was released from the Chattahoo chee brick camps at once. He reached home last night on the Belle train, and today has been warmly greeted by his friends. The pardon was recommended by the pardon board. The recommendation for pardon was signed by Judge John S, Can dler, who tried him, and by, if our information is correct, every member of the jury except one. His good behavior in camp was a great help to him in being par doned. Will Evans shot and killed Ed Merck in the summer of 1900. He was tried at an adjourned term of Hall superior court in November following, was convicted of volun tary manslaughter and sentenced to serve seven years in the peni tentiary. Captain Rowan, the man who “carried the message to Garcia,” is so sick of the subject that he is sorry he ever carried it.
