The Leading Store in Mocljs^ ilie, The Party that Does Things. Every Sign of Progress W as Raised by the Republican Party. ■ That the American people are in for a period of marked changes is beyond qnestion. Apparently it is not yet beyond question to which party the cause of progress shall, be entrusted—to the Republican .or Democratic party, or to some new group called into being to execute a general demand. Political ob servers assume that that matter is still open, and their eyes are turn ed toward the campaign of 1908 for an answer. We think, however, that the political history of the last few years has already foreclosed the stewardship of these great policies. Every milestone in the path along which the people of the country are moving resolutely onward to the task of vindicating the nation’s right to control industrial combi nations has been erected by Repub lican hands. Republicans passed the Inter-State Commerce act. which bears the name of Senator Oullom; the antitrust law, which bears the name of Seantor Elkins; the law creating the department of commerce and labor, for which President McKinley'is primarily responsible, and the railroad rate bill, which bears the name of Con gressman Hepburn. Everyagency the nation has to get at the facts in connection with corporations, to control their inter state transactions to punish their misdeeds, to make them play fair, it owes to the Republicans. Near ly every effective local fight made in the several States against corpo ration aggression's has been made by Ropublicans. It may seem paradoxical in some quarters to speak of the Republi can party as the radical rather than the conservative party. Yet it will not be so to the veterans who re-.' member its appearance on the na tional theatre as the champion/at once of human freedom and of stronger central government. .The Democratic party took then the position, to which it had been com mitted by its history, that the na tion did not have the power to put down slavery in the Slates. Its own logic is driving it into a simi lar position now. If the American people are to be bou ml by “strict construction” and a glorification of “State rights,” at the expense of the national government, they will be baffled in their attempt to curb the great Inter-State corporations which individual States have char tered. Only by turning its back on its own history could the Democratic party, the party demanding a weak central government, qualify itself to do the work which the people j are requiring now. It is an old re proach that the Republican party is “paternal,” and so it is. The abolition of slavery was paternal, the protective tariff is paternal, the intervention of Roosevelt in the anthracite strike of 1802 was pa ternal, the supreme court interpre tations that enlarge the natiou’s power to handle, interstate trans actions are paternal. Nothing but paternalism can meet the present problem. “Paternalism,” as Re publicans translate it, is “mastery” —an effective assertion that the nation is bigger than any of its constituents or any of its creatures. It was the logic of party history that the anti-trust law, as thp Democratic World said in a frank editorial in 1904, was framed and first executed by Republicans, and that when the supreme court de clared it constitutional “the die*. Deuting minority of the court in cluded every Democratic judge of that tribunal.” It was -the logic of party history that the Saratoga platform of 1904, on which the New- York Democrats presented Judge Parker to the nation, declared for •‘the maintenance of Stale Rights and home rule; no centralization.” By this same irrcsistable' logic Bryan himself is driven to the gro tesque necessity of advocating the breaking up of the railroads of the country into as many systems as there are States, aud their taking over by the Status, instead of their control by the nation. Tbe next step in national prog ress is not going to be confined to the paity whose motto is, “You can’t do it.’’—N. Y. Mail, W H O W OULD NO T BE A FARMER.

BHES QOI THERB FIRST.r _____ And Carried the Day By Ordering Salmon. “I say Gaddersby,” said Mr. Smith, as he came into the fishmonger’s with a lot of tackle in his hand.- “I want you to give me some &sh to take home with me. Put them up to look as if they’ve been caught to day, will you?” “Certainly, sir,” said the fish mon ger. ' “How many?” "Oh, you’d better give me three or four barbel. Make It look decent In quantity without appearing to exag gerate, you know.” “Yes, sir. But you’d better take salmon, hadn’t you?” "Why? What makes you think so?” "Oh, nothing except that your wife was down here early this after noon and said if you dropped In with your fishing tackle and a generally woe-begone look, to get yon to take salmon if possible,~as she liked that kind better than any other.” Mr. Smith took salmon.— Punch.

Shortly after little Margaret, aged four, had been taken to see "Peter Pan,” in which Maude Adams plays the title role, her sit-year-old broth- er^ndertook to tell her the story of the creation. . “And then, Margaret,” said he, “after the Lord had made all the rest of the things, He made a man and called him Adam, and by and by Adam got tired of being all alone, and the Lord took one of Adam’s ribs from him when he was asleep and made a wife for him as a surprise, and her name was-—” "Oh, I know! I know!” exclaimed little Margaret, quickly, "her name was Maude Adams." — Harper’s Weekly. The Reason. A teacher in a public school of Boston once Uad great difficulty In Imparting to a boy pupil of ten cer tain elementary principles of gram mar. In class one day the instructor experienced more than" the usual amount of trouble with the lad. In desperation, the teacher : finally blurted out the question: “At least, you can .tell me why we study gram mar?” "Yes, ma’am,” returned the pupil, "we study grammar so that we can laugh at the mistakes of others.”__ Harper’s Weekly. Tip on Politics. The young man who had just been elected to office was boasting of his prowess as a politician. "After the swelling in your head goes down,” observed the home grown philosopher, “you may be able to see that your election didn’t hap pen because the people were anxious to get you in, but because of their anxiety to get the other fellow out.” The Opinion That Counted. They had-a dispute, and agreed to leave It to-the military expert. "W hat bullet,” they asked, "do you consider the deadliest?” For several minutes he remained In a brown study. Then he looked up with the air. of one who had set tled the matter finally and definitely. . "The one that hits,” hej said. • The RECORD 6 months for 25c —one year 50c; SSank of Cooleemee.

The mob spirit which was intensi fied by the political leaders of one of the parties (Democratic) a few years ago, has not died out. It is necessa ry to remove prisoners to distant counties to prevent lynchings, in many instances. Only a few days ago a prisoner already tried, con victed and sentenced to be hung was removed to another county to await the date of execution. AU of which proves that the sowing will be fol lowed by the harvest.—Raleigh En terprise. Yes, it’s being reaped all over North Carolina, and our Democratic friends have the audacity to ‘‘point with pride,” and ‘‘congratulate the people.” There is more lawlessness today in the State than ever before. More foul murders and dastardly crimes, yet they thank goodness, we suppose, because it is all happening under Democratic rule in the State. AFTER PIE. Twenty-one Democrats in Wake county are advertising in the News and Observer for political jobs. No Republican in the county has yet an nounced himself for any of the offices. Now, who are office seekers? Who compose the pie hunting brigade?— Raleigh Caucasian. When'-It-^coiries to working and fighting for offices, Republicans are not in it. The Democratic papers are full of announcements. One man in Forsythe county, who wants to be sheriff, says he has not drank anything in nine months, and that if he is given the office he will resign when he. takes the first drink. Bet ter keep him on probation a little while longer.' Pie! Pie! Democratic pie; any kind of pie for you Demo crats. POINTING W ITH PRIDE. The Iiuane of the State. “ We point with pride to the record of the Democratic party in its care of the unfortuuate classes of our Stateand promise to continue to enlarge our charitable institutions _until all. the indigent insane are cared f«r at the expense of the State.”—Democratic Platform. Those Democrats who point with so much pride to what the State is doing for its insaue should read a part of the Randolph county grand jury’s report found in another col- columu of the Bulletin. Seven crazy people in the county home! The jails aud county homes all over the State are crowded with in sane people and yet a Democratic State convention had the gall to “point with pride” to what the State is doing lor its unfortunate classes. If the Democratic party can get any “pride” out of its rec ord on the care of the insane, it is welcome to it. The people know the whole State is disgraced by the action of the Deimmratic legisla tures in not providing for its un fortunate and helpless classes. The word “shame” should be sub stituted for pride in this plank of the Democratic platform.-Builetiu. It is a remarkable record; Democracy pointing with pridc- . For twenty or more years the Democracy has been bragging on what it was doiug for its unfortun ates, yet there are seven insane people bereft of reason in. the Ran dolph county home, and it’s that way all over the State. The last legislature could increase ealaries and make other unnecessary appro priations, but it failed to make ad equate provision for this poor af flicted class of our fellow citizens. The mills of the gods griud slow but exceedingly fine, aud the grind ing is going on. Democracy is being measured more closely than ever in its history. The people are doing some thinking. A W AW 1ED PLANK. In the Democratic platform adopt ed at Greensboro a few weeks ago we find the following: “ We congratulate the people of the State that under Democratic auspices there has been establish ed throughout Ihe borders of the Stateareign of law and liberty, peace and progress. That our peo ple are no longer employed in guarding their homes and pro tecting their lives, liberty aud property, as they' were under lie publican rule, but safe in the pro tection of law, and enjoying the freedom which comes from security of directing their energies to peace ful pursuits of honest industry.” “There is not a voter in the State who is at all posted on current events but who knows that the above plank in the Democratic platform is untrue from beginning to end. If there should be a doubting Thomas, we in vite him to compare the number of crimes committed under Fusion rule with the number that have been committed since Aycock was inaugu rated Governor in 1901. Crimes of every kind have continued to increase until at present they are becoming alarming. Does the Democratic par ty congratulate the people that J. V. Johnson, a white man, was lynched by a mob in Anson county some, time ago? Does the Democratic party congratulate the people on the mur der of the Lyerly family in Rowan county a few days ago, which was one of the most horrible crimes in the annals of this State? Does the Democratic party congratulate the people that four men have been foully murdered in and near Salis bury within the past few weeks? There are scores and scores of oth er cases too numerous to mention here. The worst crimes that were com mitted in the State during Fusion rule were committed by Democratic heelers in their mad scramble to gain control of the State. When have the Republicans been guilty of shooting men down, breaking into bed-rooms and driving men out of town at the point of pistols in order to secure the offices in this State? And what did they do when they gained control of the affairs of this State? Why, instead of passing a law to protect the liberties of the people, they passed a law protecting the men who had helped to destroy the liberty of the voters of the State by stuffing ballot boxes and intimi dating voters. These politicians should have put -in their platform that they congratu lated themselved for holding the offices in the State, no matter what questionable means were used tp ob tain them.”—Exchange. That crime is on the increase in North Carolina is not a debateable question. Numbers of Democratic judges from the bench have so an nounced, and in our humble opinion much of it can be traced back for its origin to 1900, when Mr. Aycock and the Simmonsmachine organized their red shirt brigade and headed pro cessions with cannons, Winchesters and shot guns, terrorizing the peo ple, and sowing the seeds of lawless ness now being reaped all over the State. Congratulating the people with such a criminal record may fool the ignorant and biased parti- zan, but with others it makes Dom- ocracy a laughing stock and a pitia ble deceiver. Your record, Mr. Democracy, is written in this State in blood and fraud. Report of County Treasurer. Receipt* and D isbursem ents of School Funds. RECEIPTS AND SOURCES. .

It was a boistrous, stormy affair, it took the sargent-at-arms and two or three sheriff? at times to maintain order. Mr. Patterson, the present incumbent, was defeated for a renomination. We know nothing of Mr. Godwin, but we afe sure the convention made no mistake^ in de feating J. A. Brown, of Columbus county. In a speech before the con vention Mr. Brown said he had voted the Democratic ticket ever since he was 19 years old. Any man who vidll take the oath required by law of a voter at the age of 19 or before he is of legal age, is not the man to represent North Carolina anywhere, much less in the halls of congress. Program of Fanners* Institute. Following is the program of the Farmers’ Institute to be held in.the courthouse at Mocksville, Saturday, August 4th. Morning session will open at 10 o’clock sharp, and after noon session at 1:30: • Corn Culture, by T. B. Parker, of Orange county. How shall we use our Com Stover to get the most out of it? by Dr. Tait Butler, State Veterinarian. How to improve our Soils, by R. W. Scott, of Alamance county. Alfalfa, by T. B. Parker. The Objects of Crop Rotation, by Tait Butler. The above program is given to in dicate the nature of the Institute, but it may be changed or added t o , as those present desire. . A question box will also be open, into which all are invited to put such questions as they desire discussed. A large number of intelligent questions mean an interesting Institute, and special attention will be given to this feature. The Farmers’ Institute is held for the benefit of farmers, and none but strictly farming questions will be discussed. It is, therefore, especial ly desired that a large attendance of farmers be secured, and to this end you are urged to be present and to induce your neighbor to do the same. ❖4*4*4* * * *4* 4* ■F <F4* •F 4* 4*4*4*4* .-F -F -F -F -F -F 100 Suits,, one’s and two’s of a kind at Half Price. $15 Suits, $7.50; $18.50 Suits, $9.25, $10 Suits, $5; $12 Suits, $6; Boys’ Suits. $2.00 Suits now... 3.50 Suits now_. 4.00 Suits now... ..$1.60 I 2.80 ..3.20 5.00 Suits now......................4.00 Menss Straw Hats.

Thezoological and botani cal laboratories have been added to and thoroughly equipped. A new professor of pathology and a new professor- of anatomy have been added.

HiBBELL An old-fashioned burgh was Glmp- town, full of old-fashioned people, not one of whom pretended to deny that Mellie Rose was the prettiest, liveliest girl In the place. - Yhus It happened that while other girls were “spoke for" as soon as they became of age, sweet MelUe Rose wasted her' sweetness upon transient lovers. Joshua Jones, the most apprecia tive of these, had remarked to his mother,— "Naow, mammy, I. don't believe there’s a thing wrong with Mellie. I like her mighty well,” “Graeious, Josh!”, said she, hold ing up her hands In horror. "If. you’re a-gittin’ struck on that gal, you had just better git over It, as quick as.possible. My grief! A whis- tlln’ gal In the Jones family! Ugh!” "I can't see why Mell can't be like other gals,” said her Aunt Dorothy, who didn’t believe In old maids. "Can’t you stop this pesky whistling, Mellie?” she asked her one day. "Got a new minister. They say he’s a young man— right smart too. j Guess I’ll Invite him In. No tellln’ he ■ might— but no, of course not! Well, I’ll invite him, anyhow,” said Aunt Dorothy. A week or two after this, she was busying herself making the little parlor look “spry,” when a knock sounded on the door. She ushered In a fine looking young man with a de cided clerical air, but pleasant and kindly withal. "I’ll call Mellie as soon as she fin ishes her chores,” Aunt Dorothy was saying, when horrors! there aro'se in that young lady’s clear, plcolo-llke whistle,- the familiar notes of "Old Hundred.” Aunt Dorothy turned red and then white; fidgeted about, and finally, when 'the assortment of noises stopped, went Into the kitchen, say ing as she went,— “Excuse me, Mr. Haviland, and I1Il tell Mellie to come In.” “The new minister’s In here. Come in and be introduced.” Mellie followed the irate lady. “Mr. Haviland, my niece, Miss Rose.” When Mr. Haviland said, in an amused tone, “Your brother is'a fine whistler.” “I— I have no brother,” she re plied honestly; so the evidently pain ful subject was dropped. So the fleeting summer days found the reverend Haviland often at Aunt Dorothy’s house,..or, In Mellie’s com pany,. wandering upon the rocky banks of Little River. Glmptown In general, said It was almost scandalous that so . fine a young man should be “took In” by a pretty face, when every one knew that that face was disfigured by a whistling mouth. Miss Smith, whose age was an un known quantity between- twenty and forty, and who had set her cap so often that that article was. badly frayed around. Its figurative .edges, said, — "No, he sha’n’t be bamboozled, not if I have to warn him myself!’' And it is on record that she did warn the daring man. One bright September day he walked over to Aunt Dorothy’s little cottage, intending to invite .^felJte to 4 4* 4 4* 4* 4 4* 4 4 4 4 4 4 4* 4 44 4 «4 4* 44 4 4 44 4 4 4 44 4 44 44 4 2b 4 v .LACE & SONS, Mboleeale (Soobs anb !Rottnos.

As he reached the gate he stopped a moment. The fr.ont door was wide open. Mellie, dressed in pink calico, with a cap of the same material only partly concealing her fluffy brown liair, was busily engaged with broom and dust brush in the hall. There was a happy look upon her innocent face. When, as if, bird- like, she could not restrain her joy, the ruby lips puckered bewltchingly, and the notes of a hymn trilled forth with startling clearness and truth. Suddenly -JfcS, - unconscious war bler was electrified into silence by the sharp words,— “Perfeckly shockin’ ain’t it?” Glancing up, she saw Aunt Doro thy standing with watering-can in hand... She was staring at Mr. Havi land, who leaned upon the gate with a puzzling expression upon his face. Not waiting to hear his answer Mellie fled to her own room, where she Indulged In ■ that which seldom spoiled her happy face—a good “cry.” For she doubted not that she had forfeited her place In the min ister’s esteem. But Mellie was surprised when her aunt handed her a note from Mr. Haviland. containing his request to accompany him to the house of some poor people, who lived several miles away. “Shall I go?” she asked her aunt. “Of course! No use makin’ mat ters worse than they be by refusin’.” So Mellie said she would accom pany the minister, though her sen sitive nature rebelled against the trial. "W hat is the matter with you to day?” asked the minister, as they trundled through the green fields. MeIlle trembled at his kindly tones: but she could not be drawn nto con versation until-— But there, no matter! What right have we to intrude? Suffice it to say that the next day Mr. Haviland asked Aunt Dorothy for Mellie’s hand. That worthy dame, though “tickled to death” could not help saying,— “But, Mr. Haviland, she is a whis- tlln’ gal; an’ you know—-” A Comeback. Her—I wouldn’t marry you if you were the only man In the world. Him—If I had any such cinch as that you’d never get the chance.— Cleveland Leader. John and His Medicine. A certain minister, while passing down. the. street of a Scotch village, observed one of his parishioners seat ed at his cottage door sipping his broth. This appearing an unusual pro ceeding, he stopped and asked him what was the matter. “Oh,” replied John, “ the Chiinles is reeking a bit, so I cam’ outside to sup ma broth! Ye had better gang In and gie the missus a bit of advice aboot it.” The minister had scarcely opened the door when a female voice exclaim ed,— "Is that you again, you auld rascal?” and the minister’s hat was crushed ov er his eyes with a stool. Without uttering a word the, minis ter closed the door and, stepping up to where John sat, said solemnly,— "John, our chimney at home smokes sometimes, top!”_____ u n iv e r s it y !THE DR.V.O.

Adams, Chair man Eepublican State Executive Committiee, issues the following stateineut: To t h e E epublxoans of N orth CA ROWK A: The unfortunate dissensions that of late existed iu the party ranks are now a thing of the past. The party is today united and the events of the past should be for gotten iu the light of the tasks that now confront us. That the Bepublican party in North Carolina is at the present time more than ever before a living, vital force'is conclusively proven by the interest shown in our re cent State convention. It is equal ly apparent from the recent Demo cratic convention that, the party is- dying of dry rot. The numbers at its convention were few and Iheii interest, outside of a few politi cians, Was uoticeably absent. Today we are faciug the future, not the past. We are face to fact with the task before us, and lhost tasks should engage our eutire at tention. As Shite Chairman I am th< servant., uot the master, of the par ty, and my whole effort will be di rected towards carrying out t.bf will of the party aud doing all in our power toward electing every Elepublicau i orninee throughout the State. . In this task, however, I will be powerless unless every man in the party gives to the organization his loyal and earnest support. The great principles upon which our party is founded are well aud favoi - ably known to the entire coantrv. Cnder the wise and able admiuis- tration of President Eoosevelt oui party lias become, more than any other political party in the history of the country, the party of:tle people. The people of our Stall- are beginning to see aud know tbai the Eepubiican party.is respouM- ble for much of the prosperity th» is appareut on every band, am knowing this, they are tiirnin; from the dead issues of the pa o the living issues of the present am the glorious hopes ol the futu e. Our State platform has beei written, our ticket nominated am we are now entering upon a cam paign that means much to our par ty and our State. The issues are plain, the linre are drawn and the fight is upu. us. •But, however unassailable on party principles, however com mendable our iiominees, we cauuoi hope to succeed without, organiza tion and heaity co-operation on the part of the rank and file of the party. _ I have no disposition to assume the attitude of a dictator on auy party matter, but I most earnest , ly'urgethat every precinct, every I county, effect the best possible or- j ganization. j Each county shou’d put si full I ticket into the field and work for j the ,election of that ticket, just as heartily as if tbe fate of the entire party hung upon the result in that, county. With principles that command universal commendation aud re sped, with a ticket that is above criticism, aud with a thorough and active organization, we have every prospect of success. - I again repeat that we should have thorough organization in evety county, and that these local organizations keep in close touch with the State organization. I need not assure the Eepublicaus of every community that I will at all times be glad to hear from them and to give to them every assist ance within my power. !■ P3N01: R B.

Since the American occupation of the Philip-- pines rat catching has become a big industry. It has- thrived so much un der a paternal form of government that 150,000 of the animals were caught in Manila during the last year. Incidentally, that meant 150,000 deaths in the rat colony, for the only good rats in Manila are dead rats. This wholesale slaughter of rats is carried out under the direction of the Philippine Board of Health. It is one of the means used to prevent tbe much dreaded Asiatic plague. “Although it is an established fact that rats are carriers of the infec tion of the dreaded Asiatic plague, yet comparatively few Americans in Ma nila are alive to the importance which the Board of Health authorities at tach to the trapping of rodents, or are aware that the city has an organiz ed corps of seventy-five rat catchers, and that they trap about a hundred and fifty thousand rats a year,” said the doctor. “Such is the case, never theless, and, were it not for this rat brigade, it would be difficult to say where the.,pest.. would stop. "The corps of rat catchers'is divided into seven sections, one being assign ed to each of the health stations Each man, who in turn hires small boys to do the actual work, receives a monthly salary of 10 pesos, which is $5, and, in addition, three centavos (1% cents) for every rat he catches. This bounty amounts to about Si* pesos a month—an average Manila clerk’s salary. A rat catcher must be industrious. He is hired by Ihe dis trict medical inspector, and if he Ea IIf to corral a certain number of animals he is promptly succeeded by a new aspirant "This Oriental professional resorts to many, ingenious waj's in attempting to fool the officials and incidentally, increase bis revenue. When the trap ping was started the officials were none too strict, and it was soon no ticed that some of the trappers were making quite an amount of money. Investigation revealed the fact that oftentimes one rat was made to do duty several times, being lcept on tile grounds earning bounty for its captor until decomposition set in. To remedy this the Inspectors now make each trapper bring his rats to the station every morning, and. there the 'right front foot is chopped off and ,the rat is labelled with the street and the number of the house from which it came. AU rats are then taken to the crematory. “But the clever native found a new means of evading the law. He con ceived the idea of starting a rat farm, and before the authorities were aware of it the business of breeding rodents, in order to collect the bounty, assumed goodly proportions.' “Once a month an auditing is made, at which time all the traps which are furnished by the authorities muEt be accounted for by the catchers. “One of the principal acts in this rat drama, is enacted at the water front, where every precaution is tak en to prevent rats from coming ashore from ships arriving from plague infect ed ports of Asia. Cargoes are closely watched, and while they are being dis charged tin funnels are placed oh the hawsers to prevent the rodents from reaching the wharf.”—Buffalo Express. . now to Cure Him. In the schools of a Connecticut town measures were recently taken to tesl the children's eyesight. As the doctor Anished each school he' gave the prin cipal a list of the pupils whose eyes needed attention and requested him to notify the children’s parents to that effect One boy brought home to his father this note from the principal: “Mr. — Dear Sir: It becomes my duty to inform you that your son shows decided indications of astigmatism and his case is one that should be attended to without delay.” -The next day the father sent the following answer: “Dear Sir: Whip it out of him."—N.

We generally believe in joint discus sions when they are conducted along right lines, but Mr. Blackburn well knows Dick Hackett, and that the people are not interested in the kind of campaign he wants. A joint dis cussion along a high plane of. the is sues would be desirable, but who could expect any such discussion with Mr. Hackett. His speech of acceptance shows the drift of his mind, and Mr. Blackbnrn acted wise ly in not meeting him. If Mr. Hackett wants to keep it up, leave him to himself. FOUR MURDERS IN TW O DAYS IN NORTH CAROLINA. “Four uuirders in two days is a record which shows that the homi cidal mania is existaut iu North Carolina as well as elsewhere. The number of such crimes committed seems to be on (he increase. It constitutes a problem that is de serving of serious consideration” — Wiustori Seutiuel, Aug. 2nd. The above is copied from a Democratic paper, and we want Io call the attention of the people to this clause iu the Democratic plat form: “ We congratulate the peo pie of the State that nnder Demo criitic auspices there has,been es tablished throughout the borders of the State a reign ot law and lib erty, peace and progress.” Yes, progress iu crime, progress in kill ing, progress iu trampling under foot, liberty, progress iu driviug peace from our borders, killing the people at the rate of two a day, and then have the cheek to congratu late them on the good order you have given. It is equal to your enforcement, of the Watts bill. Tlie people may be deceived by such “stuff” as you are dishing out, but we will wait and see. A Colored M an Speaks of the Lyerly M urder. M r. E d it o r : While I am a colored man, after hearing, reading and thinking of the murder of Mr. Isaac Lyerly and ATTEM PTED OUTRAGE. “Last Friday evening as the two young daughters of a Mr. Cbappel, aged respectively 11 and 13 years, were returning from Kurfee’s store to their father’s home on the Pass farm, west of Bear creek, they were assaulted by a uegro boy named Goe Holman, age 20 years, where the public, road runs through a piece of thick pines near . James Bowles’ residence. The brute stopped the horse, and caught one of the girls and dragged her from the buggy, she clutching the rail of the buggy until the skin, was torn from her hands. The screams ol the girls were heard bv neigh- cors at a considerable distance. It is supposed that the screams of the girls frightened the uegro as he released the girl ami fled. He was seen shortly afterward by Mr. J. G. Bowles running iu the direction ol' Moeksville. Mr. Bowles noticed that be kept look ing back up the road ahdhebailed him and asked him what was the matterand he replied, “nothing, he was trying to reach Moeksville as it was nearly night.” AUthe while he was talking to Mr. Bowles he kept looking up the road as if expecting some one. It is said that this is not this devil’s first at tempt at a thing of this kind, that he assaulted a negro girl about one year ago. The father of the girls was In town Monday aud sworeout a war- raut for. the boy’s arrest, but as yet no arrest- has beeu made. Now this is a serious matter and that negro ought to be arrested and dealt with if it takes every man in Davieconnty to enforce the law, and the idea of allowing live days to pass aud that brute still at large. Buch uuexcusable inaction on the part ot officials is what causes lynchi ngs. Davie county has never had that dark blot on her fair name, her people have ever been lovers of peace, but they will not stand for such as this. It makes no differ ence how poor these people may be, they stand before the law the equals ot auy, and the strong arm of every man in Davie county should be raised in defense of the virtue of our women. Let us have peace and obey ihe law, but in the name of God give ns protection or we will protect ourselves. Mocks- ville Courier, Aug. 2. This is another attempt on the part of the editor of the Courier to make it appear that the sheriff has not done bis duty. Now let’s see if it is true. This attempted as sault occurred in the middle of the afternoon, Friday, July 27th, and the father of the young girls did not swear out a warrant until Mon day, July 30tb, and it was placed iu the sheriff’s bands about 12 o’clock the same day. He spent, that eveuing and Tuesday hunting the criminal and deputizing ten or twelve men iu the locality to ar rest Coe Holman, the criminal. Editors generally hear such news soon after it bappeus, but we never heard of this assault until Mouday. The strangest thing to us is that (be father of these yoting girls would wait until Monday be- I fore swearing out a wariarit for hir arrest. The editor of the R e c o r d stands for enforcing the law, and the pniiishineut of all criminals, but he does not believe in trying to riiake it appear that he is the MOB LYNCHES THREE AVENGES MDROER OF LYERLYS family. I voice the sentiment of the inteligence of my race when I say only man trying to do his duty. Neaae and John Gillespie and Jack Dil lingham Hanged. A crowd of over two thousand men attacked Rowan county jail Monday night and removed Nease and John Gillespie and Jack Dillingr ham, leaving the three others impli cated in the Lyerly murder in jail. The negroes, were marched to the base ball field near Col . John Hender son’s home and hanged Co a giant oak, then the dangling bodies were riddled with bullets. John Gillespie maintained his innocence to the last, but Nease Gillespie and Jack Dilling ham declined to either confess or de ny the crime. Mr. Ed Barber, a relative of the Lyerly family, appeal ed to the infuriated mob but with out avail. Senator Overman, Mayor Boyden and Judge Long addressed the crowd, holding them at bay until nearly midnight. In the melee Fire man McLendan and a negro dray man was struck by stray bullets. Regarding the affair the Charlotte Observer says: At Salisbury last night another stigma was put upon the name of the Statein the lynching of three ne groes suspected of the Lyerly atroci ty. It was unexpected until yester day afternoon, the fear of this crime being added to that at Barber Junc tion having passed away more than two weeks ago. It was utterly inex cusable, since the suspects were actu ally on trial for their lives at the time, before a just and able judge in a court of law convened for the purpose of determining their inno cence or guilt. And there goes with the reprobation which must attend such an event in the hearts of all right-minded men, . the , horrible thought in this, that all of these creatures may not have been guilty. There are wise men who have follow ed every step in the progress of this case and weighed every word of the State's evidence thus far adduced, who entertain the most serious doubt of the guilt of all, but who believed, that there are facts and circumstan ces, not yet brought out, bearing up on the case, which would be devel oped in its trial and put a different face upon it. But however this may be, our annals are stained with the story of another lynching, this the most unjustifiable of all, this unpre cedented in the history of similar crimes in North Carolina because in open defiance of the court and under circumstances in which the defend ants, if found guilty, would have met speedy death at the hands of the law.Who may say what favorable in fluence the recent easy escape of the Anson county lynchers had in for warding the tragedy at Salisbury last night? ' Another blot on North Carolina’s name. To say that it was inexcusa ble but half expresses it. Court in session, time bills found and every thing ready for a fair trial and a legal execution of the guilty. The authorities should be prepared for such outbreaks. Mobism has got to be put down or anarchy will ulti mately rule in this country. The next legislature should spend some time in framing a law to reach the case, aind it should be.so simple and plain that we should be spared such farces as were enacted at the trial of the Anson lynchers. No man’s life will be safe in this country much longer if these mobs are not checked and punished. *4 4 4 * 4 4 4 r f t f t -ft' -ft -ft f Every day numerous customers come and buy bountifully of the many bargains ^ I we are offering.

Some seem to think it was the hardest rain since the flood, but Observer cannot see or remember that far back, and there fore will not. say. The typhoid fever seems to be ebbing in this section. Nearly all the old cases are better, and no re cent new ones. Harvy Lyerly has been at the point of death for near ly a week, but is thought to be a little better this morning. - He has been better of the fever for some time, but took pneumonia, and grew worse all the time while treated with cold water. The cold water treatment has been an entire failure in this section, while every case treated otherwise is better. We cannot understand where a benefit is to be realized from cold water applied to the side in case of pneumonia; or a gallon of cold water applied internally in case of fever, This is a progressive age, we know, but Observer thinks we should never get ahead of good common sence. Rev. W. L. Brown anil wife are thinking of going to Faith and vi cinity next week to do the jewelry repairing needed. There are many things in this life that give us more or less trou ble, and Borne of the troubles can not be avoided, but we think love and kindness hare a soothing balm in every instance, thcrefere a few lines on that subject will follow: Love and kindness Deget many friends But arrogance scatters them to the ends, Be loveij, affectionate and kind, It will be a help to a weary mind. Let love rule in the family circle, Then joy like a wheel will twirtle, It will roll round aDd round, And give us no uncertain'sound. Kindness begets the kindness of oth ers, Out of foes it can make us brothers; The unkind will become kind and love, And make this world be like to th at above. The husband should love the wife, In all this world of care and strife; The woman should honir her dear man,. And trust him as her own right hand. Children should know their duty well, So every word will something tell; The parents should give them pleas ure,too, And interest them in something new. . Be kind to the grandchild my iriend, And that child wiil love you to the end;" Then happy will be the child and grandma, And a source of Comfort as well to grandpa. That daughter, and as well that son, Who discards what papa and mama have done, And trea t them with undue respect, Do not their own sinfulness detect. . Then let love and kindness he whirled Intoall thelabors and duties of this world, Then the bumps and troubles of 'this life W illbe endured with pleasure, and not strife. greatest thing out of FRIGHTFULLY BURNED.

It-requiresabout one-half as much grain, to produce a hundred pounds of . gain on calves as on two-year- olds.-The work of the Missouri Agri cultural College has definitely dem onstrated- that the most profitable age to fatten cattle is wlille they are »till young. The- older the animal the more.food is required to produce a given gain. Other stations have also investigated this question and have arrived at the same result.

More than six feet in height, straight as an Indian with piercing brown eyes, a Gre cian nose and a wealth of jet black hair and mustache, he is by many counted very handsone, but there in does not lie his element of strength and attractiveness as a candidate for a seat in the sixtieth congress. He is intelligent, broad-minded, genial and personally popular with the people—especially with those who know him best; and though a Republican from childhood of the straightest type, he is singularly popular with a large circle of Dem ocratic acquaintences in the vicini ty of his present home, as well as in other sections where he has lived, labored and taught school. He is in every essential a self- made man, having forged his way against obstacles which would have discouraged one of the less stalwart mould an inflexible purpose, as evidence of which the following brief summary will show: About thirty-two years ago, at the home of his father on a small farm about five miles north-east of Troy in Montgomery county, the future farm laborer, turpentine worker, school teacher, lawyer and pros peetive congressman, first looked out upon nature and her inviting prospects from au abode not of ab ject poverty nor yet of indolent affluence, but one in which the father and mother, following fclie example of their ancestors had, by dilligent labor on a small farm, with Ijre aid of most rigid eeohbhiy/ managed to keep-the wolf at bay and defy the world to assail their integrity and good standing hi the community.

He took a course at Gbapel Hill and was for a time principal at Mt. Olivet Academy. He studied law with the well-known law firm of SeaweIl &.Burnjf at Carthage, and took the summer law course at Wake Forest College.

Tt has, in fact, been observed that in many respects lie TH E MOCKING-BIRD AND PISTOL. “Lawlessness walks the State like a pestilence, crime stalks abroad at noonday, sleep lays down with alarm, aud the sound of the pistol is more frequent than the song of the mocking-bird.” The following is from the San- j ford Express (Democratic): “ ‘There i-eetus to beau epineinic of homicides aud crime in this State.

(Democratic Platform .) “We congratulate the people of the State that under Democratic auspices there has been established throughout the borders of the State a reign of law and liberty, peace and progress.” NEITHER SIDE SINCERE. The thick aud thin partisan, the person tvho feels called upon to swear by everything his own party does and at everything doi e by the other, eucounters some embarrass ments as he journeys through the wilderness of this world. The Domocratic party of North Caro lina has made much of the lawless ness which was rampant wlieu the Fnsionists were governing the State and Governor Aycoek had said that in those days the erack of the revolver was heard more frequent ly than the song of the mocking- • bird. In the last Democratic State platform it was said that “we con gratulate the people of the State that under Democratic auspices there has been established through out the borders of the State a reign of law aud liberty, peace and pro gress,” and now the Republicans are having their inning. There have beeu three lynchiugs in Gov. Glenu’s nineteen mouths of administration and no small amount of crime and disorder of various kinds—just about, the usual amount perhaps. This has been uo fault of his. uo fault of the Democratic legislature aud is not due to the fact that four-fifths of the counties are under Democrrtic control. No body believes it is. Nor was the lawlessness which ran riot from 1895 to 1899 dtie to the fact that Gov. Rnssell, a Republican, occu pied the Executive office at Raleigh or that twTo Fusion legislatures sat in the capitol at that time. The annual crime recoid averaged up about as usual. Everybody knows this. The Raleigh Times and Statesville Landmark have recent ly discussed this subject, their con clusions being about the same as those arrived at above. It is incomparably better for every reasou that the administra tion of the State and county gov ernments of North Carolina should; be in the hands of the Democratic party control should remain where it now is; but it is nonsense to say that law was wantonly trodden un der foot in the days of Fnsiouism and that there was iio security iu the StaIp for life, liberty or prop erty, or that since the restoration ol the Democratic party the reign of Iawr has been absolute, that per fect peace has beeu enthroned and that, life in all the borders of Tar Heeldom has been aud is one grand sweet song. If wre can’t he candid and sensi ble let us be as candid and sensible as wre possibly can.—Charlotte Ob server. ‘‘ The above from the Charlotte Observer is respectfully referred to the little two-by-four varieties of the Dfcuioc.ratic press. If every paper in the State would advocate the right, uphold law and order, there-would be less crime, and wre would see a great change for the better all over our Stale and country. As the Observer says, “let’s be as candid and reas onable as we possibly can.” EFFECTS O F NON-EDUCATION. Editor D avie Record : If ignorance be the mother of vice and the public schools is the efficient foe of ignorance, the last fifty years should have seen in all these respects an improvement so great that admir ing nations would applaud and hum bly hope to imitate. But who needs to be told that iti all these respects we have deteriorated? Itisnot Harace’s praiser of the days when he was a boy that tells us this. It is a matter of public record. It is known to every observant man who has lived more than thirty years. Our large towns swarm with idle, vicious lads and young • men, who have no visible means of support Our rural districts are infected with tramps—a creature unknown to our fathers and even to us in our youth. The board of inspectors of ihe State penitentiary of Tennessee say: One out of every twenty-five of the entire population of Great Britain is a juvenile delinquent; a destitute vagabond, abandoned, and, in many cases, a law-breaking child before the age of 17. Whilethe sameprc portion of such a class can not be supposed to exist in North Carolina, still the number is very large, and augmented daily with our increasing population. While no section of the State is entirely free from their presence our larger cities swarm with them. They are found at every comer and in every alley; at orr depots, here their faces greet you with features pinched by their ne cessities into expression of premature shrewdness, bordering on villainy, totally foreign to the faces of well cared for childhood. From the teaming crop of ignor ant, neglected and criminal children is produced the large majority, if not all, of the Susie Hannons, thieves, counterfeiters, forgers, burglars, robbers and murderers who fill our penitentiaries; as also those subjects for seduction, and consequent pros titution, who fill the brothels of our cities. Here is society preparing the crime which the criminal commits. Here is the negative preparation of non education, and the positive one of temptation. B.

Indications are that a large crowd-will attend from here. Very low excursion rates will be in effect on all railroads. Tlie show, under the management of John Robinson, is now enjoying its 83rd year of prosperity, and is the foremost amusement attractions of America, if not of the world. It numbers among its arenic favor ites some of the most expensive and best acts that money can procure. The Capt. Thomson troupe of Ameri can cavalrymen, in expert feats of daring and original horsemanship; Dare-Devil DeBurry, who sets at de fiance all the fixed laws of nature when he dashes down a dizzy incline, and with the speed of a hurricane loops the gap on a bicycle; the mar velous educated group of seals, un der the master hand of Capt. Win ston; Edna, acknowledged Princess of the realm of horsewomanship, the world’s only lady sumersault rider, and twenty equestrian associates; forty joyous subjects of King-Momus in a gleeful sufficiency, and more than a hundred other foreign and American features in three rings and an elevated stage, and introducing as an added feature King Solomon, His Temple and the Queen of Sheba, requiring a cast of a thousand men, women, children and horses, 100 bal let girls reproducing the dances of the day of the king of a thousand wives. The Robinson - show has always been famed for its managerie, and this season finds the zoological annex the most complete ever carried by. a tented show, comprising costly and rare animals from every section of the globe. This splendid array of animal talent will be in the big daily street parade, pronounced by all as the most gorgeous and elaborate pageant of modem times, compris ing more than a mile of gold encased wagons, chariots and 500 of the fin est American horses. This is the only big show that is not irr the circus trust and no advance in the prices will be' made. At Winston-Salem, Monday, Sept. 3rd. Notice Of Sale Under Deed Of Trust.

The lynching at Salisbury has aroused the people of North Caro lina to the danger of mob violence and to the necessity of punishing those who “take the law into their own hands” and mete out summary punishment to persons accused of crime. The press of the State de nounced the outrage in unmistake- able terms, and it was suggested by more than one newspaper that the failure to punish the lynchers of Anson county doubtless had much to do with the bad outbreak at Salis bury. The Governor and the presid ing judge also spoke their minds freely, and arrests were made as promptly as possible. One of the ringleaders, an ex-convict, was tried on Friday last and in a few hours convicted and sentenced to a lor g term in prison. There was no doubt of his guilt. It was proven by many eye-witnesses, and there was no es cape. Other 'arrests have, been made, and there will doubtless be more convictions.

BECKETT She was seated In the garden of the hotel, a mass of chiffon, auburn hair, flowing draperies, open-worked stockings, and brown, high-heeled shoes. On her knees lay a sketch of the snow-capped mountains as seen from the distance. Drawing was the chief accomplishment in which she excelled. "I feel beautiful, Spot.,” said she, addresing her faithful fox terrier, who wagged his tail Intelligently in response ' to her remarks. "I feel beautiful, and also pleased, for am I not gowned for table d'hoie? No more dressing to-day, my dear Spot- tie. How do you like my frock? 'Tis not my only— I hare better still, And what you see is but my desha bille. "It is a pity, isn’t it, Spot, that there’s no one to see me but you, the mountains, the .lake and the buzzing flies?” The sun had just touched the lux uriant red brown hair with a deeper, richer tint when Miss Amos became conscious that two tourists, Anglais decidely, were coming across the gravel path. "Col. Ashmore, by all that I’m worth,” she murmured to herself. “And another; I wonder who he is. Col. Ashmore! W hat shall I do? Tt’s the first time I’ve seen him since I refused him. Down, Spot, down! Don’t add to my discomfiture by making that horrible row.” Yes, it was the gallant D. S. O Evelyn Amos had of late questioned herself very frequently as to the san ity or insanity of rejecting such a desirable offer—distinguished, rich, and, moreover, a most agreeable man-. She could never satisfactorily answer herself. W hat was the good of marrying a man with whom all the rest of the women were in love? Why should she follow the common, senseless herd? She, a beauty and an heiress! Barbara Montgomery, Evelyn’s particular friend, had judiciously pointed out the' advantages and dis advantages of such a matrimonial venture, and in her summing up the former considerably outbalanced the latter. Evelyn thought Barbara's suggestion vulgar when she quoted the hackneyed saying that "There are as good fish in the sea as ever came out of it.” This did not seem to her pertinent as applied to her self and Col. Ashmore. The idea that perhaps he would console himself in a richer and more beautiful direc tion Evelyn repudiated with dis dain. > "More beautiful!” She was vain enough to think that with auburn liair undyed, fair complexion non massaged, perfect figure, feet and hands, she could carry the world be fore her; in fact, she was proud of anything and everything that be longed to that marvelous vision of beauty, Evelyn Amos. And who was Barbara to preach that. Eustace Ashmore would soon fly to some one move appreciative and congenial? Barbara, a common place little creature, who could scarcely string together a couple of sentences grammatically. Had. not she, Evelyn, been the belle of every place she had honored with her pres ence? Fly from her, indeed! What nonsense; and here was a proof. So on this glorious June day when Col.’ Ashmore stood beside her she felt no sort of surprise whatever. W hat more natural than that this man, who a season and a half ago had been her veriest slave, should now have returned to his allegiance? Here he was on the very first avail able opportunity hurrying to meet her again. Gratified vanity made her eyes sparkle, although she flattered herself that she looked as if she saw no one for whom she felt the slight est interest. "I am delighted to meet you, Miss Amos,” said Col. Ashmore. He was not In the least nervous, but then men don't carry their hearts on their coat sleeves—this was Evelyn's com forting reflection. "I heard you were coming to Eausanne.'' he continued, extending his hand. Evelyn condescendingly offered hers and at the same time wondered why she had never real ized before the charm of this man’s personality. Many of the sterner sex look well In their silk hats, frock coats and smart dress suits; this man in whatever clothes he wore seemed exactly suited to the place nnd the hour. "No need, Miss Amos, to ask how yon are?” Evelyn smiled most graciously, fully aware that the accommodating sun was still lighting with its gold en hue her oceans of chestnut hair. “This is my cousin Norton,” he continued. “Mr. Herman Norton is like yourself, a painter, and you two ought to become great friends.” But Evelyn could only think of the tall, upright man before her. Had he ever asked her to marry him? Had she dared refuse him? Burely she must have dreamed this episode of her career—it could not be true. Could he ever forgive her bad taste and the harm it must have done him? After all it had only been bravado. Now—well, it would have been a brave person who would have dared to have said any thing In his depreciation In her pres ence. Barbara Montgomery's words oc curred to her. "Eustace Ashmore is is good as he is handsome, as true as he is tall, a man absolutely de void of swagger and conceit.”_____ She agreed with' Barbara and thought so, too. Absence often works wonders In making us remember as well as for get, and Evelyn had of late remem bered a great deal, and now Eus tace was beside her once again—of his own accord. She had been abroad with her maiden aunt, Miss Milman, and they had been traveling inces santly for a year and three months —their last stay was in Sicily. They had heard little of their friends and their affairs, as both Evelyn and her aunt had tabooed all correspond ence, so for the space of fifteen months they had been practically out of the world that finds its bound aries In London life. Now they were both en route home and beginning to hear the echoes of the park. Her heart was full, for she realized that she was hear the man of all others she most desired to . "Eustace the Rejected," as Barbara laughingly had christened him, was at her side to bid her wel come back. Because I was a fool once,” she thought, there is no reason why I should be a fool again, and, thank goodness, it is easy to say yes or no. Everything comes to him or her— which is it?—who waits.” Pleasantly conscious that her mind was fully made up she turned to respond to Herman Norton’s brainy tittle-tattle on art and books, thinking to herself that he was a good civilian copy of his military cousin. Presently the boom of the dinner gong sounded across the sward. Col. Ashmore shook his limbs as he got up from his seat, remarking: "How well you draw, Miss Amos; that's a capital castle.” "That’s hot a castle, you duffer,” laughed Herman, as he offered to re lieve Col. Ashmore of Evelyn's Rketch. “That’s the large hotel on the hill at Evian Ies Bains over yon der.” "Oh, I thought, it was the castle of Chillon. I wondered at. it having raised Itself to such an exalted posi tion so many miles above the level of the lake or sea.” Laughingly they made their way toward the Beau Rivage, mutually pleased with one another and more than pleased with their individual selves. Herman Norton . wondered how it was that Eustace had not. spo ken much in praise of this hand some and clever girl. He was him self quite In a fair way to succumb to her fascinations. Evelyn was tell ing herself that it was natural that Eustace should wish her to be en rapport with his relatives; never In her life had she felt so happy and so much at peace. As they entered the hotel and mounted the parapet they were joined by some one else. A vision In a white frock, blue sash, curly black liair, a nez retrousse, and laughing brown eyes. “You truants, you will be dreadfully late for dinner. Oh, you’ve found Evelyn, have you?” The brown-eyed girl made a dart at her blue-eyed friend and demonstra tively embraced her. "Barbara!” Miss Amos was genuinely sur prised. "Who ever expected to see you here of all people In the world? Is it really Barbara, or her astral body?” "I am no astral body, Evelyn, bul very much alive. Are you not sur prised to see Eustace?” "Indeed I was.” Col. Ashmore had descended the steps. Evelyn turned away to hide her tell-tale countenance, which she feared might reveal to Barbara the joy she felt In meeting her old ad mirer again. L'araonr ne se commande pas. "Of course, he has told you?” and Barbara scampered down the stairs, following In the wake of the admired Colonel. "Told me what?” and Evelyn looked toward Herman Norton in quiringly. “I suppose she meant my cousin’s marriage, but, of course, you knew he was married a year ago?” "Married! Married!” "And whom has he married?" "Barbara.” THE RITE OF IMMERSION. Paderewski Not Lucky Poker Player One of Boston’s foremost musi cians was speaking: "Baderewskl is a great pianist, but he is also a great poker player— a fact that very few people seem to be aware of. He’s a great poker player, that In the sense that he is immensely enthusiastic, for he certainly has no great luck at the game, though be calls it the best sport in the world and never misses a chance to play, In spite of the experience which must have taught him by this time that he al most invariably loses. “I’ve played at the same table with him just once, but I never shall forget that evening. A Beacon Street millionaire had given a mu sicals at his home and Paderewski had presided at the piano for some thing like an hour; we were all of us wondering wha't he had been paid, I remember. Now the host is an enthusiast In ’the great Ameri can game,’ and somehow Pederewski heard this. Wherefore he proposed a game, and when he was told that American gentlemen never play for money with their guests, he was so keenly cut up, as well as so insist ent, that in the end a table was formed, and somewhere along about I o'clock we began play. We stopped about daybreak, with Paderewski more than five thousand dollars less than he began with. "But then it was a cheap game for the musician, as our host told me later that he had received $4,000 for playing the piano.” Handed Down From Early. Times— Once Most Elaborate Ceremony. No one knows when immersion as a religious act was adopted. It is said that the old Egyptian priests' and some early Hindoos practiced it. The Jews for ages baptized prose lytes. Immersion was a rite of the Ro man Catholic Church up to the four teenth century, when sprinkling was authorized. The great baptisteries at Pisa, Florence, Padua, Parma, etc., were fitted up with tanks for this purpose. The boy who would be baptized in the Roman Catholic Church in those days found it an ex perience to be remembered all his lifetime. He was called a catechu men, a name which probably puzzled him a great.deal to pronounce and to understand. When he became one of the catechumens he was obliged to submit to a long and elaborate course of instruction, which, like his title, was probably all Greek to him. After he was fittingly prepared he was “re ceived” in the baptistery. Then his Christian name was bestowed upon him. He was directed to face the west, where were supposed to abide all the powers of darkness, and to renounce the devil and all his works. The priest then exorcised the evil spirits that they come out of the boy by laying his hands upon him and breathing into his face. This was to symbolize the departure of the evil spirits and the inbreathing of the Holy Spirit. Then the priest put his fingers to his lips, and moisten ing them with his own spittle touched the nostrils and ears of the boy with his moistened finger tips. This act, suggested by that of Jesus when he opened the ears and set free the tongue of the deaf and dumb man, signified that, the boy’s ears were al ways to be open to truth and himself to the sweet odors of truth and vir tue. Then the lad disrobed, and his body was anointed with oil, as the ancient, wrestlers were for the fray. This typified his preparation for the fight against the powers of sin. At the direction of the priest he opened his mouth for the pinch of salt, sig nifying the wisdom and taste for heavenly things proper for a Chris tian. He also ate of milk and honey, representing the food of spiritual youth. The boy was quite apt to be tired at the end . of the preliminary ceremonies, and the actual baptism was postponed to the next day. Fol lowing the immersion, which early was a triple dip, the children put. on white robes, signifying the innocence which their souls were supposed to have acquired by baptism. There were a. number, of immer sions in the early history of the Ro man Catholic Church, according to history and legend. The patron saint of Ireland is said to have performed the fatiguing feat of immersing sev en Irish kings and 11,000 of their subjects in one day. This, perhaps, may be taken-with a grain of salt. Austin, a monk, according to some. Immersed 10,000 in the River Swale, In England. On Christmas Day, 496, two years earlier, the strange specta- tacle was witnessed of a Frankish king, Clovis I., and 3,000 of his sol diers filing into a Continental river to be Immersedrin payment of a vow. The Baptist and Greek Catholic churches are the best known denom inations practicing immersion. The Seventh Day Baptists, the Dunkards, the Disciples and other denomina tions also practice it. Over 4,500,- 000 persons in the United States have been immersed.—New York Tribune.

Well dressed and well mannered peo ple in other respects are for the most part not only awkward in the man ner in which they place their pedal extremities, but vulgar. I have seen fashionably gowned women in the Bwellest cafes and eating houses in Paris and London, and in New York, as well, display the soles of their boots at the sides of their chairs by leaving the heels at an angle that was too conspicuous to be overlook ed. To see such a sight neutralizes any effect that dainty lingerie might otherwise produce. “Men are worse in this display than women. As soon as the average man takes his seat at a table he in voluntarily tries to get his boots to gether by twisting his legs around be hind his chair. In all the matter I have read about how to be graceful I have never yet seen a rule suggested for the proper way to rest the feet while sitting in public. “Look about you whenever you go out. Even in street cars, surface, subway or elevated, 3'ou will see well gowned women and men, who in oth er respects appear to know how to hold themselves together, displaying their footgear In the most slovenly manner. Men and women of the bet ter class are particular about having good fits In boots and in having the same kept properly cleaned, but they seem to forget that, no matter how well shod they may be, it is neces sary to know how to place , their feet in order to appear to good ad vantage. “Ask the cobbler who keeps the footwear of the best people in repair, and he will tell you-that most per sons wear off shoe leather on the toes before other parts are affected. -This comes of sitting with the toes of the shoe turned against the floor.” .Vom Ex-Gov.
