It is one which puzzles the ofiicials. Indeed it is a serious matter. I Wiiut to tell you an insident ov the cam pane ov 1900 which shows that Guviuer Charley will doo Jist what iie says he will doo—if not iu wnn way, theu in another. Ther was sum ov them cussed radicles heo kept on sayiu in the amend ment campane that il the amend - nieut went throo it would shut out a lotov pore white trash from vo- tin. Guviner Charley said it wouldn’t do no such a din ned thing. He said this on every stnmphe e.iined. But the radi­ cles kept on sayiu the amendment would shut out pore whites from rotin. At last Guviner Charley got tired ov ha ( in his solum word disputed by the radicles. So one flue nioriii i he sent for a ’squire an made affydavit to the effect that the amendment would not shut enuy white man out from votin, and that settled it theu and tliare. Guvinef Charley is the last stiiitsman, in either anshunt or modern times, to discover that the elieetsov a In inly men till statute conld be determined by afidavst before as<iuire. Au if we diminy- crats discover that thare is anv danger ov our not bein able to Iern all the white mail children to reed by 1908, we’ll jist have Gnviner Clmrlcy to declair em all educa­ ted by affidavit. He did the wuu; an he can doo the other jist as- wel. Biit1 lay deer Willnme, I didn’t intend too go into Hiattei-S iu this letter as I’ve dun.

We want a live coi’respoiulent at I every pusloffice in the comity; I w rite us the news from your sec- baek fur sum time Yon see Willu me, it iz this a-Way, the dimiuycratic party ov this ole stait amended our stait constitution iu 1900 so as to keep the niggers an pore whites from votin iu future elecshuns. The amendment shuts the uiggers out from votin at wunst an it shuts the pore white trash out from votin after 1908. Sowr, what Guviner Charley and the rest of us dimmy- crats have got- to do is to make the pore ignorent whites believe that all ther children will be so well edukated before 1908 that they can read the eoustitushuu in En­ glish. You see ifthese pore whites find out that ther children kant be Inrued to reed the constitushun before 1908 iuaybee they mite turn over and vote with the cussed radi cles au turu us dimmycrats out ol' ollis. An tliare is not a dimmy crat in this hole stait ho does not uo that it .would be a grate kalarni- ty Iur the dimmycrats to be turn ed out of offia. We got all the offt- tes away from the cussed radicles an pops at the begiunin ov this year; and onr legischure went to work an made as many new offisea as they could an put. dimmycrats into ’em. But we did not have time to make as meny new oftises as we want, an we must keep them ciissedradiclesouttillwe ean fin­ ish the work ov savin the ole stait. You can see at a glance that we dimmycrats have tickellish worK till 1908. An so, Guviner Char­ ley is a iisin ov the stump in every part of the stait. makin speeches, in what we call an educshunal eampane, an declarin, in the most einfatic turms, that every white mail cliiid shall be lurned to reed the constitushun before the sun ov hevin rises on the morniu ov Jau- ooary the Iii1St7 190.8. Thar ar a rite smart sprinklin ov peeple iu th e state at ihis time hoo say we cant Iern all the white mail ehil dren to reed by 1908, but they ar mostly radicles who talk thataway.««» _ i•__Xiubtki iu\ what: WA *i p5ii_ SCHOOL REI»ORTS.

SCIENCE, ART, LITERATURE, WAR, Peace, Commerce, tnvention— Note­ worthy Progress In AU Lines in Chronological Order, • L-r . JANUARY. 1 Queen Victoria of England died on the 22d; on the 6th Ignatius Donnelly, famous writer and theorist; on the 21st Professor Elisha Gray, one of the in­ ventors of the telephone, and on the 26th Giuseppe Verdi, famous musical composer. In the realm of science perhaps the most important announcement was that of Professor Pulpln’s system of induc­ tion coils, which may revolutionise cable telephony. FEBRUARY.The centennial anniversary of the installation of Chief Justice Marshall was celebrated at Washington on the 4th, on which date also occurred the funeral pageant of Queen Victoria in London. The discovery of the new star Perseus, later announced as a nebula likely to result in new worlds was dis­covered on the 19th, and a photograph was taken. MARCH.On the 2d of March the pope celebra­ ted his 91st birthday. On the 4th Presi­dent McKinley and Vice President Roosevelt were inaugurated and the Fifty-sixth congress adjourned. On tho Uth there was a million dollar are in New York and another in Richmond. Va, On the 23rd the Filipino chieftain Augiualdo was captured in his moun­ tain retreat by General Fred Funston.A trolley car was produced in Ger­many which, on its first test, made nearly 100 miles an hour. The obituaries include Benjamin Harrison, ex-president of the United States, aged 68, and Charlotta M. Yonge, famous authoress, 78. APRIL. Early in April it was given out that there were prospects of Atlantic linars crossing the ocean in about 100 hours, through the installation in fnst sailing passenger steamers of turbine engines, after the Parsons or Graydon pattern. MAY. Tfie 4th of May was notable for the great Br^ in Jacksonville, Fla., with loss of $15,000,000. The 9th was noto­rious for the Wall street panic. The day is now referred to as “Dirty Thurs­ day.” On the 20th the great Pan-Amer ican exposition at Buffalo was opened.JUNE.The month’s necrology exhibits such famous names as Hoshi Toru, Japanese statesman, assassinated; ex-Governor Hazen S. Pingree of Michigan, 61; Ed­ward Moran, artist, 72; Sir Waiter Besant, novelist, 65.It was announced this month that Thomas A. ,Edison, America's famous Inventor, had at last brought to per­ fection the electric storage battery up­on which he had been .at work for . many years, and its successful applica­tion as a means of rapid and economi­cal transit. JULY.On the 2d of July died Jacob S. Rog­ers, locomotive manufacturer, aged 67, who left a legacy 'Cf $5,609,000 to the Metropolitan Museum of Artj New York city; also Professor John Fisk, lecturer and historian, 69; R. H. Newell (Or­ pheus C. Kerr), an old time humorist, 65; Charles Nordhoff, journalist, 71; Prince Hohenlohe, ex-chancellor oi Germany, 81, and Mrs. Com Paul Krug­er, 65. On the 12th Santos-Dumont me da a luccessful aerial voyage over Paris. On the 24th the Schley court of inquiry was ordered by the secretary of the navy; the 25th President McKinley pro­claimed free trade between the United States and Porto Rico.AUGUST., Thet Dowager Empress Frederick of trih’any, edest daughter of the latesen Victoria, died on the 4th, aged 6J;‘ on the Ilth Signor Crispi, TtiliVw statesman, 82, and onJhg-SDUHSeneral William Ludlow— N. aged 50. Kitchener issued a procla­ mation ol banishment against all Boers found in arms after Sept. 15. One of the most unique of inventions was al­so announced, consisting of electro printing without ink. The greatest electrical discovery up co mat time was tnat ot transmitting electric waves through the ground or the water to any desired point by which it is claimed that an automobile torpedo boat can be operated three miles dis­tant. SEPTEMBER.The most noteworthy as well as most terrible event of this month was the shooting of President McKinley by Leon Czolgosz, an anarchist, at a re­ception at the Pan-American exposi­ tion. Mr. McKinley died on the 14th, on which date Theodore Roosevelt took the bath of office as president of the United States. - On the 28th occurred the massacre Of fifty United States soldiers by Fili­pino bolomen in the island of Samar.OCTOBER. On the 29th the assasin, Czolgosz, was electrocuted at Auburn, N.. Y., for the murder of President McKinley.Aerial navigation by means of the dirigible balloon received an impetus by the notable trip of Santos-Dumont over Paris and.around the Eiffel tov.-er, thereby winning the Deutsch prize of $20,000. Early in October the Pan-American congress met in the City of Mexico, and another fact of international impor­ tance was the negotiation of the Hay- Pauncefote convention, precedent to the treaty for giving to tho United States a free hand In the building of the isthmian canal. NOVEMBER. On the 5th a French fleet seized Turkish ports and drought the sultan to terms; the city of Colon, isthmus of Panama, was captured by Liberal in­ surgents, who were subsequently driv­en out by government troops; a fusion mayor, Seth Low, was elected In Great­er New York. On the 7th Earl Li Hung Chang, the great Chinese statesman, died in Peking, aged 79, and also Katc Greenaway, artist and author. The world’s record for'speed of au­tomobiles was broken by Henri Four­ nier. who made a mile in 61-4-5 seconds. DECEMBER. If the latest information anent wire­less telegraphy proves to be correct, the last month of the year has seen !he greatest achievement in the flashing across the ocean of a “wireless' tele­graph” message from Cornwall, Eng­ land, to Newfoundland, a distance of more than 2,200 miles. - This is said to have been done on Dec. 14, after much preliminary experimenting The first Monday m December wit­nessed the opening of the Fifty-seventh congress with a host of new subjects for legislation. Warfare still continues In South Africa, the Philippines and hde TBE TREASURY’S STRENGTH. The Government Begins the Year With Abundant Cash, Washington, Special.—“The Treas­ ury is in a condition of unexampled strength,” Said Secretary Gage, when naked to briefly review the Treasury situation at the close of the year. “Only a month ago, In my annual re­ port to Congress, I reviewed those, con­ ditions. The figures fee the last month have made but little change.. For the calendar year we show receipts in ex­ cess of the ordinary expenditures amounting roundly to $100,090,000. Such an excesss might have resulted in serious embarrassment had not the Department- been able, by means of this surplus to reduce the public debt in large amounts. Since April I last the Treasury has (redeemed and cancel­led United Slates bonds to the par val­ ue of $58,714,700. which have been ap­plied to the sinking fund and the dis­ bursement resulting therefrom was $212,218,645. Tho available cash on hand is therefore, about $30,090,003 larger than the amount a year ago.“Comparing the situation as it is to­ day with April 1st, 1897, the result is most gratifying. . On the latter day the Treasury held money of all kinds to the amount of $250,873,000, including $100,000,000 as a gold reserve, leaving therefore $150,000,000 as a cash balance Today in money of all kinds the Treas­ury holds $296,659,000, and if we deduct the $150,000,009 now held as a gold re­serve the balance stands at $146,000,009 or $4,000,000 less than it was April I, 1897. It will be seen, therefore, that substantial equilibrium has been main­tained. “There has been a very material in­crease in the money in circulation since March 1,1S97. as well as in the amount per capita. The volume of money on that date, outside the Treasury, was $1,675,694,953, and the amount per capi­ta was $23.14. On the 1st of December last the amount of money outside the Treasury was $2,250,256,230, and the amount per capita was $28.73. The in­crease in amount, therefore, was $374,- 561,277, and the increase per capita was $5.59.” Another B. & L. Failure. Roanoke, Va., Special.—At the suit af W. W. Gwynn, of Huntington, XV. Va., the Iron Belt Building and Loan Association has been placed in the hands of receivers by a decree entered by Judge Simonton, United States cir­ cuit judge. The bill was filed on De­cember 27th in the United States Court at Lynchburg, and the decree was en­tered by Judge Simonton, sitting In chambers at Charleston, S. C-, on the 28th, appointing E. B. Jacobs aiid James R. Terry receivers. The passing of the January dividend on its full paid stock, because of recent West Vir­ginia decisions, Is the chief ground upon which the suit is based. The asso- dation holds extensive properties in several Southern States and is one of the largest corporations of its kind in the South. Messrs. Jacobs and Terry, the receivers, reside at Roanoke, Schley to Make a Tour. Washington, D. C., Special.—Admi­ ral Schley left here Tuesday afternoon for Baltimore, to pay a long-deferred visit to his sister. He will return on Thursday to act as honorary pall­ bearer at the funeral of the late Rear Admiral Roe. On January 8, Admiral Schley will go to Savannah, Ga., for a ten day's visit to General.Vfiiliam W. Gordon. On the" 25th, 20th and 27th oi January be will be the guest of the Hamilton Club, of Chicago. January 29th and SOth he will visit Louisville as the guest of tho board of trade and the Knights Templar of that city; Feb­ ruary I, 2 and 3 he will be in Nash­ ville as the guest of the board of trade and Knights Templar. He will visit Knoxville on February 5, and 6 as the guest of tho city. The Memphis trip has been arranged finally for the week of April. " itsorship Withdrawn. New York, Special.—The Commer­ cial Cable Company sends out the :ol- lowing notice: “We are advised that the Eastern Telegraph Company makes the announcement that the American Gnvccnment has withdrawn the censor­ship oil messages to Manila, but tne Governmentdaims the right to inspect the messages to which this measure ap­ plies.” A Jeweler Shoots Five Persons. Turner’s Falls, Mass., Special—Louis Bitzer, a jeweler of thi3 place, shot five persons, two of whom—his clerk, Mis3 Ida Columbe and Bitzer’s five- year-old son—are dead. The other vic­ tims were his wife, Christina, and his two daughters, Annie, about 16 years of age, and Carrie, 12 years old. Itfis thought they will recover. There is evi­ dence that it was Bitzer's purpose also to take his own life, but his prompt ar­ rest apparently prevented him from carrying out his purpose. He is about 35- years of age. The Cuban Election. Havana, By Cable.—The indica­ tions are that the entire Palma ticket will be elected, and. that Thomas Es­ trada Palma, the Nationalist candi­ date for the presidency of Cuba, will receive unanimous vote of the -electoral college. The adherents of General Bnrtolome Maso, (the Demo­ cratic candidate who recently with­drew from the campaign) not only withdrew their candidates, but re­fused to go tb the polls. A remark­ ably light vote was polled through­out the island.

HONEY AGGREGATE OF BILLIONS. Of the 2 ,2 0 3 Plants Reported, 174 Were Idle During the Census Year —VaIusble Statistics. Washington SpeciaL-Census statis­ tics made public on industrial combina­ tions show a total authorized capitali­ zation on Jlay 31, 1900, for the 133 cor­ porations .reported 'of$3,607,539,200 and capital stock-issued $3,0-35,200,863. Of this total the authorized capital in­ cludes $270,127,250 in bonds; $2,529,510,- 900 in preferred stoek and $2,077,871,050 common stock. The capital stock is­ sued comprises $210,412,751 in bonds, $1,006,525,963 in preferred stock and $1,802,262,146 in common stock. The total valuo of all the products 0! the combinations reported is $1,661,295,304 and subtracting the value of the pro­ ducts of the hand trades, cir the me­ chanical and neighborhood industries, which amount to $1,216,165,160, the pro­ ducts of the industrial combinations in 1900 are found equivalent to over 20 per cent, of the total gross products of the manufacturing industries of the country as they existed in 1890. Tho 183 corporations employed an average Cf 399,192 wage earners, receiving $191.- 534,715 -in wages. Employment also was given to 24,585 salaried officials, clerks, etc., receiving a total of $32,653,623 in salaries. Miscellaneous expenses of these combinations aggregated $151,- S51,077. The total cost of material used was $1,085,083,828, The gross value of products, less the value of material pur­ chased In partly manufactured form give3 the net of true value of products of these combinations as $1,051,931,536. This represents tho increase in the val-. ue of tho raw materials resulting Irom the various processes of manufacture. The 183 corporations reported control 2,029 plants that were active during the census year and 174 reported as idle during that period. The returns showed an average of 11 active plants te each corporation. Of all these industrial combinations, 63 were organized prior to 1897 and in the year 1897, 1898, 1899 and prior to June 30,1900, there were organized sev­ en, twenty, seventy-nine and thirteen corporations, respectively. Over 50 per cent of the total number of such cor­ porations were chartered during the IS months from January I, 1899, to June 30, 1900, The statistics of industrial combinations exclude all corporations, manufacturing and distributing gas and electric light and power, it being impossible to trace all of the latter, and they do not generally possess the same economic significance. Tho returns show that the iron and steel industry is at the head of the list, with a gross product of $508,626,482, which is more than double the value of the product ol any other group, except food and kin­ dred products, and represents nearly one-third of the total gross value ol products of all the industrial combina­ tions respectively follow: Iron and steel and their products, $341,799,945 and $508,026,482; food and allied products, $246,623,633 and 3232,- 408,031; chemicals t|id allied proto:: s: SHILJOS,S§7-rona.-#l'$2,39i,74i;' metals -Wifcl metal products other than steei and iron, $118,519,401 and $180,154,703 liquors and beverages, $11S,4S4,184 and $93.43-2,274; vehicles for land transpor­tation, $S5,965,5S3 and' $85,985,533; to baceo, $16,191,818 and $74,063,029; tex­tile, $92,468,606 and $71888,202: leather and its finished products', $82,734.01.1 and $45,684,829; paper and Printing, $59,271,691 and $44,418:417; clay, glass and stone products, $46,878,923 and ?23 • 25S.1S2; lumber and its re-manufac­tures. $24,479,231 and $20,373,315; mis cei’.ane'ous industries, $45,408,809 and $48,605,073.________________ Heavy Rains In Tennessee, Chattanooga, Tenn., Special.—-Heavy rains over the entire upper basin.of tie Tennessee river will produce a flooi, tide.

A Report of GreatVaIueto tbe Peo­ ple ot the State. Agricultural statistics will form one of the most interesting'features of the forthcoming annual report ot the Commissioner of Labor and Printing, Mr. H. B. Varner. Advance sheets, prepared by Chief Clerk W. E. Faison, give a great deal of in­ teresting information-relating to the farming classes." The following' average tables are compiled from blanks filled out by representative farmers from every county in the State. The farmers al­ ways respond promptly. In this chap­ ter is also published letters showing the .needs and condition of farm la­ bor. The returns were received during the period from June 15 to October I, 1901, which explains the difference in the selling, price °f cotton and oth­ er products shown in table No. 5. Table No. I shows an increase of 12 1-3 per cent, in value of land in twenty-one counties. Seventy-six' counties report no change. Eighty- two counties report fertility of land maintained, and fifteen report , fer­ tility not maintained. Forty-seven counties report tendency to have smaller farms, nine larger and twen­ ty-one no change. Table No: 2 shows that the mode of living in ninety counties is improved. Sixty-three counties report the cost of living increased. Ninety-six counties report negro labor unreliable, and one reports no negro labor. Thirty- nine counties report employment regular. Table No. 3 shows the highest wages sf men $15.62, and the lowest $9.65. Tne highest wages of women is $9.78, and the lowest $6.36. The wages of children is $5.39. Forty-six coun­ ties report an increase in wages and fifty-one report no change. These figures show, an average increase of nearly 20 pm. .cent over 1900. Table No'. 4 shows that sixty-seven counties produce cotton at a cost of $26.80 per 500-pound bale. Eighty-six counties produce wheat at a cost of 61 cents per bushel. Ninety-six coun­ ties produce com at a cost of 43 cents per bushel. Ninety-four counties pro­duce oats at a cost of 31 cents per bushel. Fifty-four counties produce to- duce tobaccp at a cost of $5.49 per 100 pounds. Table No. 5 shows the market price of cotton S cents per pound, wheat SO cents per bushel, corn 71 cents per bushel, oats 43 cents per bushel, to­bacco $8.30 per hundred. These prices make the profit on products $3.20 per bale for • cotton, 19c. per bushel for wheat, 29 cents per bushel tor corn, 11 cents per bushel for oats, and $1.81 per hundred for tobacco. Table No. 6 indicates that the edu­cational condition is good in three counties, fair in forty-one, poor in fifty-three. The moral condition is good in twenty-one cpunties, fair in seventy-three, and poor in three. The financial condition is good in one, fair In forty-three, and poor In fifty- three. The question, “Do you favor a compulsory school law?" was an svzered by S3 per cent, “Yes,” and by 19 per cent, “No.” increased Valuations. The Corporation Commission ' has prepared a statement shewing the in­ creased assessment, to be $30,32,234. The increase in real and personal property is placed at $21,622,438, which is in accordance with the official fig­ ures from the State Auditor’s office published in the News and Observer Christmas day..... a--- - r'- ...The--figures of the Corporation Commission are based on complete re­ turns from 91 counties, and estimated figures based on partial returns from five counties. Only one county is not included. The News and Observer's figures from 90 counties showed that the increase In real and personal prop­ erty over last year, is $20,181,078. The Corporation Commission”s figures from 96 counties show an increase of $21,622,438. . ;The toal valuations from all sources are $339,425,593 as compared with $309,097,359 last year and $2S7,339.2S8 in 1899. This gives and increase of $29,- 32S.234. One of the largest sources of the increase, aside from the real and personal property is tho corporate ex­ cess tax, which is $5,867,000. This is the tax the corporations pay on capi­ tal stock. The Department, of Insurance makes a good showing, the increase in the amount of revenue paid nets the. treas­ ury last year by that department, be­ ing $34,471.45.

TWENTY PEOPLE ARE KILLED AccidentOccurredin The Waters ol The Pacific O c e a n —Mast Have Re­ sulted From Carelessness. Work Being , fall San Francisco, SpeciaL-A collision- at sea, early Thursday morning, be­ tween the steamship Walla Walla and an unknown sailing vessel, resulted in the sinking of the steamship and Uie probable loss of at least 20 lives. The Walla Walla, owned by the Pacific Coast Steamship Company, sailed from San Francisco, January I, for Puget Sound ports. She carried 36 first-elass passengers,- 28' second-class and a crew of 80 men. -When off Cape Mendoc.no, on the California coast, at 4:10 o’clock, Thursday morning, an iron bark, be­ lieved to be French, loomed up In tho haze and crashed into the Walla Wal­ la’s bow. Then the sailing vessel slid off into the darkness and was seen no more. All the passengers and crew of the Walla Walla, except the few cn watch, were asleep, but were aroused by the crash. The steerage quarters were In the bow and it is believed that some of the steerage passengers and crew were crushed to death. A big hole was made in the steamer's bow and she sank in 35 minutes. The officers and crew maintained strict discipline and boats and life rafts were lowered. AU who were not killed in the col-, lission got on the -boat except Cap­ tain Hall. He was picked up later un­ injured. A choppy sea was running and the small boats oould not make a land: ing on the shore, a few miles distance. They drifted about all day, and final­ ly 65 people ,were picked up by the steamer Dispatch, which took them to Eureka. Another boat under command of Engineer Brown, and containing 13 persons, attempted to land at.TYinidad and -was swamped. John Wilkinson, quartermaster; Wm. Martiel, fireman; L. Drube, passenger, and three un-. known men, were drowned. Those in the boat who were saved were En­gineer Brown, Fireman McClellan, Coal-Passer Wm. Shinn; Sailor O’Lea­ ry, Chief Cook Marshall and Passen­ gers Wm. B. Smith and Wm. Moore- house. When the Dispatch reached Eu­reka this morning with the survivors, tugs were immediately sent out for missing boats. The tug Ranger picked up one containing Xl passengers and three of the crew. The Walla Walla was valued at about $250,000. She was formerly used as a collier and about ten years ago was converted into a passenger vessel at a c-03t of $175,000. The vessel was insured for abut $200,000. George Reise of San Francisco, a member of the crew, gave the following account of tho disaster: “It was 4:19 when the French vessel hit the Walla Walla In the bow. AU were asleep. The weather was clear, the sea was rolling high. AU were panic-stricken. The passengers rushed out of their state rooms and tho fleck was crowded. Captain Hall went down Into the steerage and found a family of seven fastened in a room by tlie force of the shock jamming the door. Two boys were pinoned beneath fallen timbers. The girls were released and the family assisted out of their berths. The captain said the vessel would sink and all hurriedly prepared to leave. Life ..boatsrand* Tatts-rWefb "Towered; - life preservers were put on and passen­ gers lowered to the boats. The collision happened at 4:10 and the vessel did net sink until 4:45, giving tbe' crew and passengers 35 minutes to leave the steamer. Sixty-three were lowered into the life-saving boats then being filled. Panic reigned among the re­ maining passengers; women screamed and men and boys hurriedly jumped Oevrboard. Several did not leave until the vessel began to sink. The officers were cool and collected, doing every­ thing possible to save the passengers. No one knows exactly how and when the collision occurred, excepting the second officer and he is missing. Im­ mediately after tbe collision, the French vessel withdrew and appar­ ently made no effort to render assist­ ance. Parker’s Man Located. Elizabeth City, N.

Tlie National Reciprocity Convention Uas come and gone. Called under tlis auspices of tlie National Association of M anufacturei1S with tlie avowed ob­ ject of promoting the scheme of trade agreements embodied in uiiat are known as the Kassbn treaties, and its management lodged in the hands of men thoroughly committed to what Charle3 EEeuer Clark so aptly charac­ terized as “the policy of industrial as­ sassination,” the convention prior to assembling, and up to a certain point In its proceedings, seemed to stand aligned for wido open reciprocity. Its permanent Chairman, Mr. Theodore C. Search, executed a neat straddle In his opening address. The delivery of the first address on the subject of reciprocity was assigned to an avowed free trader, Mr. A. E. Farquliar, of Yori;, Penn., a manufac­ turer of agricultural implements so completely guarded by patents and royalties as to render foreign compe­ tition impossible. Eeing himself In no need of protection—or, at an rate, hold­ ing that view and apparently oblivious to the fact that upon the general pros­ perity produced by protection he must depend for by far the ledger portion of sales in the home market—Mr. Far- quliar easily arrived at the conclusion that no other industry should have protection. TVhat he wants to do is to sell implements to foreigners, no matter what becomes of the general industries of his own country. He is, In short, a typical reclprocator. Charles Heber Clarli’s definition or reciprocity fits Farquhar like a glove: "But of late we have heard a de­ mand for reciprocity of quite another kind, and this new variety of reci­ procity, unsanctioned by any of the great champions of American industry in ti:e past, has found advocates in this convention, and has even been for­ mulated in treaties by representatives of tli2 Government of the United States. It is not easy to put into a single phrase the theory Cf this new kind of reciprocity; but t\!e purpose of the authors may be expiessed /f we shall imagine them saying, for exam­ ple, to France: “ If you will let us knife, some of your industries, we will let you stab some of ours.’ In short, we find eer- .tain American' manufacturers who have grown to greatness under the protective system, willing to sanction partial repudiation of that system so that they may make gains for them­ selves in foreign marked. Like the famous humorist whs was willing to have all his wife’s relatives go to the war, they will agres to the injury or the destruction of a few little Amer­ ican industries If then can thus ob­ tain a chance to sell more of their fabrics.” Mr. Farquhar’s address was distinct­ ly along these lines—a cold blooded, selfish proposition that any and all in­ dustries may sink provided his own in­ dustry is thereby enabled to swim more profitably. Then came the sr-eat spesch of the convention, the turning point of its de­ liberations, the event which more than any other one thing, and perhaps more than all other things combined, saved the day for protection and fair play, for the kind of reciprocity that builds np and does not tear down; that cher­ ishes and does not assassinate domes­ tic industries; the reciprocity of Blaine, McKinley, Roosevelt and Dingley; the reciprocity of the Eepublican platform of 1000, which the American people j have indorsed at the polls and which by that indorsement stands as the un­ written law of the land. By some for­ tunate chance—for it is hard to be­ lieve that the convention managers re­ alized in advance what a mighty weapon was to be turned against them —ths duty of delivering the second of the general papers devolved upon Mr. Charles Heber Clark, a delegate from the Manufacturers’ Club of Philadel­ phia. Evidently the level headed Quak­ ers knew their man much better than the convention managers knew him. Their selection was a marvelously good one. Mr. Clark did more than answer Mr. Farquhar. He annihilated him. He made that marble hearted Cobden- Ke look very much less than “thirty cents.” ■ He carried the convention by storm with Iiis massing of facts, sta­ tistics and logic, his gift of direct, state­ ment, his offiiand, colloquail manner of oratory, his touches of humor anl his keen shafts of sarcasm. Rehears­ ing the tremendous growth of our for- c>sa trad® under the Dingiey law as contrasted with the Wilson tariff, Mr. Clark would pause a moment and then ask: “Do yon see anything in this to justify the banging of a hole in the Dingley tariff?’ Sir. Clark was a power which the wide open reciprocators bad not reck­ oned with. He stormed tlieir citadel k.v sheer force of truth, Justice, pa­ triotism and brains. When he had ffcncd the battle was *’on for pro- ti'e.iyii, for equity, for sound-common In the formation of the Committee on Resolutions the outlook for protec­ tion was not at first glance encourag­ ing, but the obvious temper of the con­ tention os a whole had its effect upon the committee’s deliberations, with the result of producing a report which stands for the maintenance of the prin­ ciple of protection for the home mar­ ket, and for only such modifications of the tariff as can be made, “without in­ jury to any of our home Interests of mannfaeturing, commerce or farming." Sound Republican and protection doc­trine, terseiy and plainly stated! The resolutions also recommend the crea­ tion by Congress of a reciprocity com­ mission and for the establishment of i> Department of Commerce. Tbe Cnly Safe Anclior. The protective tariff has been the solid foundation upon which the Amer­ ican manufacturers have builded their unequaled prosperity, and It Is the only safe anchor for the labor and business of the American people. If the tarift is excessive beyond the necessities of American labor it may be good policy to reduce it, but it can be safely said that the people of this country are op­ posed to any reduction'that will reduce the wages or the labor of the working­ men of tlie United States. Tinkering with tariffs unsettles business, causes doubt and hesitation, and the laboring men and their families are the first, last and worst sufferers by the changes made. That fact is again illustrated by (be business depression in Germany at the present time—a depression whol­ ly caused by the efforts of the agrar­ ians of that country to prevent the im­ portation of farm products of the Unit­ ed States. It is possible that they will succeed, but it will be well for the statesmen and the agrarians of that country, and tlia people of all other na­ tions, to remember the prediction of !Signor Luzatti, one of the political leaders of Italy, as quoted by the Kew York Tribune, that “the adoption of the proposed new German tarift would mean, first, reprisals by other nations against German industry; next, ruin to tierman industries and heavy losses to German agriculture; then, the export of less merchandise and more men, and, finally, the decaj of Gerilan com­ merce and the fatal decline of German political influence.”—De3 Moines Reg­ ister. The fir s t Need. An increase in our shipping facilities would probably be of greater benefit to us than reciprocity treaties. Mr. Samuel B. Sacks, a leading Cincinnati shoe manufacturer, who was a dele­ gate at the Washington convention, stated the case well in these words: “South Amorica wants our shoes, but we cannot get them to her without ships. Reciprocity Is all right, but what is the use of it unless we have the means to deliver the goods?” That is the truth of the matter. The great­ est field for reciprocity to-day is in South America, but as long as we have to ship goods to that part of the world by way of Europe we cannot do much in the way of improving trade in South America by means of reciprocity treat­ ies or otherwise.—Philadelphia Press. TFliat K ind of Farmers? Farmers are getting pretty good prices for their products. But they are paying good prices for their ne­ cessities. Many of them think the bal­ ance of prosperity is against them.— Defiance Crescent. The Crescent must have in mind either mighty poor farms or mighty poor farmers. Probably they are what is known as “porch” farmers. As a matter of fact every one knows there is not a particle of ground for such a remark as the above. The Crescent Is falling into its old habits contracted in the days when it was yelling for free silver and Bryan.—Bryan (Ohio) Press. Unearned Praise. From the votes in the Reciprocity Convention, so-called, it would seem that a lot of journalistic shouters for reciprocity as a handmaiden—or “hand­ out”—to free trade had misappre- heuded tlie views of many manufac­ turers. The latter were floridly an­ nounced as having changed their minds on the tariff and as being now ready to depart from protection. It is sad to thick that the praise showered up­ on these gentlemen for their sensible and patriotic change of view was wasted, but it looks that way. Tho “K eystone State.*' - Pennsylvania. is called the “Key­ stone .State.” Two explanations have been given, of this name. According to the first, the Declaration of Inde­ pendence was trembling in the bal­ ance, six colonies having voted for and six against it, the vote of Pennsyl­ vania was cast in favor of the declara­ tion, and thus a majority was secured. According to the other explanation the name was purely an accident. When tie Rock crook bridge was constructed, near Washington, the stones of. the great arch were inscribed with the names of the states, and when it was' finished the discovery waa made that the name of Pennsylvania was on the keystone of the arch, and tHus w»- plied afierwarfi to tfie ctata, - Growioe Interest in B etter Hlglrcraj-B. T J~y HERE has been a larger ex- S 1 pendlture of public money I for the improvement of . public highways in tbe past season than in any previ­ ous five years of our history. The aggregate of money appropriated for the betterment of highways will mount into the millions of dollars. Public sentiment In favor of better highways has developed so rapidly that it has been difficult to keep track of the various international. National and State conventions that have been called to promote the cause. This in­ terest has been manifested not only by farmers, good roads enthusiasts and public officials, but also by sever­ al of the great trunk line railways. If every State in the Union had an advocate of good roads with half the spirit and energy of State Senator Earle, of Detroit, Mich., the work oi the next decade would bring marvel­ lous changes in the public highways of the United States. If the same methods that he has brought into use in his own State should be employed elsewhere It would be difficult to find iu the more thickly populated dis­ tricts, at least, an impassable piece of road at the end of ten years. Senator Earle is by no means a nov­ ice in this field, for he has spsnt sev­ eral years of active service as one of the expert instructors in good road building sent out under the auspices of the Department of Public Road In­ quiries of Washington. He might be called the apostle of good roads. A year ago he was elected a mem­ ber of the State Senate of Michigan from Detroit. At that time there was no organization in the State which had for its object the improvement of the highways. Immediately upon the assembling of the State Legislature last winter he began to agitate the good roads ques­ tion. It was through his efforts that the Michigan Highway Association ■was organized and began its work. He was placed at the head of the Com­ mittee of Public Highways and be­ came the leader in this field. He now has a project for the or­ ganization, equipment and adminis­ tration of a State Engineers’ Depart­ ment requiring the appointment of a competent engineer who shall have charge of the State work for the im­ provement of highways. He expects to procure an appropriation which wiE keep such a department busy dur­ ing the next twelve months. In the meantime he has not been idle. Through his efforts fully a score of counties and cities have made ap­ propriations for work within their bor­ ders aggregating nearly a half million dollars, which will be expended with­ in tha next twelve months. He expects to start out next spring as soon as the season will permit with a good roads train drawn by a trac­ tion engine, which will make a tour of the central part of the State, travel­ ing about 500 miles. Before the start, central points will be selected where the train will stop and build a sample mile of good road. This train will consists of a traction engine especially made for the work and fitted with automatic attachments so that it can be used as a road roller. There will be an excavator, stone spreader, stone crusher and several ordinary small cars used for the pur­ pose of carrying fuel and also for drawing stone to the point wliere the sample road is to be built. The part of the State through which Osr train r/ill pass happens to have an abundant supply of what are called out West round heads, which have been used for stone fences In some lo­ calities along the road. From this source will be obtained an adequate supply of crushed stoie, which will form the wearing part of the road con­ structed and the Senator wiil see that macadam road is built.—Xew Xork Sou. Talne of Good Hoads. It has been urged by some that farmers living near the city are bene­ fited by bad roads In the more distant districts because they can manage to get to town and realize a higher price for their products, while those living further away are unable to reach the market. With a similar fallacy it has been stated that the country mer­ chants are benefited by . bad roads be­ cause the neighboring farmers are compelled to sell to them and take their goods in exchange. The increased value that good roads bring to a farmer’s-estate will more than recompense him for what he con­ siders a loss In the price of bis pro­ duce, and in addition he reaps the ad­ vantage oi' purchasing his necessities ai a lower price. It is the complete BEd free interchange of commodities vrfthin aur. own borders which brings the greatest good to the greatest num­ ber.—G. D. V. Kollo. at Cheboygan (Mich.) Institute. - A Practical D em onstration. A practical demonstration In good road making will do more to Inspire an interest in the improvement of the public highways than any number of lectures on the subject. As. a result of the recent Good Roads Convention at Buffalo a special train of twelve cars, with all the appliances'for mak­ ing good roads, will be sent from Washington to the Southern States under charge of the Department Ot Agriculture. Experts will give dem­ onstrations of the art of building en­ during roadways at the least expense at various places In the South. If the experiment shall awaken the expected interest it will be repeated in other sections of the country. ■ Wellington G. Singhi, of Rockland, He., has in his possession a photo­ graph of Abraham .

Hal! Cains fi? a ltKey./ Mr. Hall Caine, I observe, by 453 votes to 191 , has become a “Key.” It is not quite so easy to determine why the. twenty-four who form the executive branch 0 fthe Legjslature>of the Isle o! Man are called “Keys.” The-term*is old. It appears in the Latin form of clavis, in 1418 . Four years later there are English “Keys.” But the Manx statutes did not recog­ nize ‘‘Keys” till long afterward, in 1585 . From that year to 1734 there were the “twenty-four Keys.” But Gov. Hornet who must be taken to have known how to address that assembly, did act, in 1715 » address it as “Keys” but as “Gen­ tlemen of the Twenty-four Keys.” I turn to our friend Phillips of the “New World of Words,” 1716 . Mr. Phillips opines that these twenty-tour chief' commoners, “being, as# it were, keepers of the • liberties of the people, are called ‘Keys’ of the island.” . Your “as it were” definition is necessarily somewhat fanciful. . However, Mr. Hall Caine is a “Key”- pf sorts.. Once upon a tome his fel­ low “Keys” would have been his elect­ ors. But in 1S66 “Keys” consented to submit to the popular vote. Then the act of 1SS0 abolished a property quali­ fication for “Keys/* granted household suffrage in town and a £4 owner and £6 'tenant franchise i ntho country. Fur­ ther, it seems,* it admitted women to vote. I should not wonder if this lat­ ter circumstance had a good deal to do with Mr. Hall Caine’s eleztion.—Pall Mall Gazette. Bathrooms in Public Schools. It has been decided that the public schools of Boston shall be provided with well-appointed bathrooms. This movement was begun two years ago, cvhen the Paul Revere School was bu’lt, and in future all schools are to liave ruch conveniences. When a child pre­ sents himself for admission to a school and gives evidence that he has not been is well groomed at home as a proper regard for its health and the comfort Df'its class'room associates demands, t is the duty, of an instructor to Ieai iim tc a bathroom ana give him a les­ son in the hygiene of the person. Not ■hitil he has passed a satisfactory in­ spection is he permitted to take his place in the class to which he is as­ signed.

The scholars come to school much cleaner than formerly, and the work for both tcachers and pupils is better than form­ erly—probably because the - classroom atmasphere is less depressing.

Always complaining. AV U e i your crowd had a chance at the tariff you like to have ruined the country. All the leading papers iu the country say that, great pros­ perity exists, and tt,e figures show that the Republican Administra­ tion at AVashington has collected a sufficient revenue to run the gov­ ernment, pay all the extra cost of maintaining the Army and Navy, besides have reduced the public debt by purchas ing nearly one-hundred Mil­ lion Dollars worth of interest bear­ ing bonds, aud have about $100,- 000,000 surplus in the Treasury. Compare this with Air. Cleveland's record of issuing about $262,000,- 000 in times of profound peace. Fhe treasury bank rupt as it were, borrowing money, and labor idle and begging for work, and thousa .ds.fei in soup houses. To­ day prosperity ail over the coun­ try, laborweil fed and paid, soup houses abolished, new enterprises going up on every hand, a greater per cipita circulation ofj current coin than in 25 years. All these things, aud yet yon can’t say a good word for the party that has brought- it u b o u t.

A u d while you are criticising the tariff which has placed this money in the National Treasury, be sure and tell your folks not to ask for $250,- UOO to celebrate on, at Roanoke Iiland, &c&c. from the Journal, is this, if they would use descent aud nice lan­ guage, aud keep sueh stuff out of their elegaut paper, the people would sleep better, and the Bauk- anptcy question might subside.

Hay or and Chief of Police of Elizabeth City Each Sue the Citi- ; ZSQSf Committee, Suffolk, Special.—Mayor J. B. Wil­ son and Police Chief W. C. Dawson, of Elizabeth City, N. C., have entered suits in $10,000 each against tho Crop- sey citizens’ committee. This was the climax of six weeks’ of alleged friction and an attitude of rivalry and antagon­ ism which is said to have existed all along, but which for reasons suggested by prudence was concealed from the public. The brand which touched off the volcano of unrest and hostility was applied in the form of a signed state- snent from four committeemen, which In substance charged the mayor and police chief not only with supineness in solving the Nell Cropsey mystery, hut, to use the committee’s words, “They have at all times seriously, handicapped om* efforts by their ac­ tions and manner of treatment” The committee also accused Chief Dawson of wiring the release of a Cropsey sus­ pect whose identity they were prepar­ ing to investigate. After, referring to the burden of criticism they have borne the committee further insenced the -officials by declaring, uWe could • have accomplished better results and have saved much time had the chief of police and mayor recognized that they were public officials paid as public ser­ vants and discharged their duties in accordance with these facts.” Accordins to rumor in Elizabeth • City one member of the committee de­ sired Chief Dawson's job and they nat­ urally mad© exertions to find the body before the poKco did and regarded him as an agency which should lend its best endeavors In assisting rather than directing the committee. Daw­ son's refusal brought the Srst ruture. The committee lias among its members some of the wealthiest residents of Elizabeth City, and a verdict, if ob­ tained, would fci? worth its face value.Though a newspaper reply was ex­pected to the committee’s statement, Mayor Wilson and Chief Dawson de­cided that a press answer io the accu­sations would not appease their feel­ings, whose soothing the courts will be aslted. to adjust. The best legal tai- . ent' obtainable will appear. The intense interest which first cen­ tered in the finding of Mis3 Cropsey and then the fate of iV/lcox, her lover and alleged murderer, has now been diverted to the legal strife among those who sought to dispel the uncer­ tainty, and unless a compromise be ef­ fected the bitterness which will creep in will draw a sharp line between the two local faetions, both of which have influential adherents and the cause of whose principals they so adently endorse. Locally the factional bitterness will overshadow the frantic attempts to get State’s evidence to convict James Wil­ cox, who whiles away his time smo- iag and reading, and whose indiffer­ ence to it is well nigh impregnible.

Good Results to Come Frpin Tbis Department of the A. and M. A Salelgh special says: “Mr. D. A. Tompkins, engineer and architect of the State’s Textile Sehool building at the A. and M. College, was in the city last week and visited the building with President Winston and Prof. Wilson of the Textile Depart­ ment “The purpose of the visit was to in­ spect the building, which is now nearing completion. “Largo quantities of textile ma­ chinery hare been received and is stored in .the completed portion of the building. The erection of this machin­ery will be begun now In a few days. “This textile school when completed will make one of the finest and best equipped in the country. ‘Many of the older schools hjje been developed in hired buildings which are not as well adapted as a new building can be made to the purposes of a tex­ tile education. This new building at the A. and M. College is specially de­ signed for the purposes for which it is to be used. It has been very economi­ cally built hut is very substantial and looks.well. ’ • . - ‘In discussing the benefits that could be made to accrue to our people from the establishment of this Textile De­ partment Sr. Tompkins told of a Miss Slgrid Hamilton who lives in middle JJew York and who.makes a business of weaving fancy dress goods patterns on a hand loom. Miss Hamilton does her own designing and weaves differ­ ent materials, silk, linen, cotton and . other fabrics. She will contract to furnish a fine fabric for a shirt waist pattern of an original design and guar-, antee that there will be none other like it. ’Her work is all beautiful of design and she sells her stuffs at high prices. She gets five, eight, fifteen and even :wenty-five dollars for fine patterns for shirt waists. Her loom is a simple hand loom and she does her work at home. The work of weaving is pleas­ anter than hand work with the needle and far more profitable. Philadelphia has vast numbers of hand weavers who make rues, tapes­ tries and such fabrics' at home. Some times considerable business is devel­ oped. A hand weaver will get another loom Uid hire an assistant and then another nntil a factory is made.“The hand loom in an ordinary house is very little more In the way than a sewing machine. The possibil­ities of a profitable occupation with one or more looms is far ahead of that with the sewing machine. "The yarns arc of course bought,, silk, wc-rsted, cotton, linen or other, are abundant on ihe markets. The yarn can be bought already dyed or the weaver may do the dying. The Textile Department at the A. and M. Collese will give full courses in carding, spinning, weaving dyein. and designing. A young lady who might be interested in designing and •weaving only might take a special course in those branches.“There is a large field for profit In weaving rugs by hand.” ' % Tar HeeS Notes.

The total revenue for the year from lodges for $7,647, an in­crease of 5703. When Mr. Drewry be­ came secretary six years ago there were only 9,800 members and the re­serve was only $4,700. The returns as to length of terms of the public schools in 'the various counties, as compiled by Clerk Duck­ett, cf the ofijce of tho State Super­ intendent of Public Instruction, show that in 37 counties the terms of the white schools were 4 months or more last year and that in 30 counties'the same condition existed with regard to negro schools. The average- in­crease in the length of term of whit* schools was nearly a week and of ne­gro schools a week and a half. It is the $100,000 direct appropriation which has largely brought about this in­crease. Buncombe county heads the State in length of term, having 31 weeks. The receipts of the insurance de­ partment paid to the Treasury for the year which will end March 31, will be $25,000 greater than for the preced­ing twelve months.

PJCW Governor Aycock has fixed Wednes­ day, February 26th as the date for six executions. The six men who are to pay the death penalty are the four Emma bur­ glars, Andrew Jackson, the Lincoln county burglar and J. H. Rose, the Wilson county murderer. The cases came.to the executive office from the Supreme court, where new trials were denied. , While six executions in North Caro­ lina in one day are out of the ordi­ nary, the conviction of four men for burglary and. the, imposition of the death sentence in each caso is prob­ ably unprecedented.It is understood that an application for executive clemency ini behalf of at least two of the burglars is being pre­ pared in Buncombe, but as yet no for­ mal petition has reached tho executive office. Capt. T. W. Patton, of Ashe­ville, called on the Governor Saturday and urged the commutation of the death sentences.■ While it is not. known that the Gov­ernor will interfere with the decision of the jury aid the court, it is stated that Miles and Gattis, two of the con­ demned men, have a better showing for executive clemency than their two companions. Judge Douglass of the Supreme court dissented from the de­ cision of the court as to the guilt of these two, holding that they were oniy guilty of burglary in the second de­ gree. Foster and Johnson made the entrance in the store and did the shooting while Mills and Gates stood on the outside. Andrev/ Jackson, a white man, wiil be hanged for burglary on the same day in Uncoln county. There is now a petition before the Governor in Lis behalf, urging executive clemency. He entered a house which was only occu­ pied by two women and when he was discorered by them he attacked both savagly. One of the women was very seriously cut with a knife and at trial a little child born was shown to the jury and had birthmarks correspond­ ing to itc mother’s wounds. Jackson eluded the officers for nearly a year and was finally captured in South Car­ olina, tried at Lincoln and sentenced to hang. The Governor also fixed February 26th as the date for the execution of J. H. Rose, of Wilson, who waylaid and shot a neighbor. There has not been a .hanging. In Wilson county "since the war. Niegro Murdered, Rutherfordton, Special.—Sam Pow­ ell shot and instantly killed his negro renter near Henrietta Saturday. The difference arose about a small amount o£ rent which Powell claimed that the negro owed him. Powell went to Mag­ istrate Burges, and a3ked for claim and delivery papers with which to take the negro’s crop. Squire Burges, not thinking the case worthy of such pro­ ceeding, refused to grant Powell’s re­ quest He then tried to get Deputy Sheriff Davis to take possession of the crop without the proper papers. This he refuesd to do. Powell became en- iuged and threatened to kill both the magistrate and sheriff if they did not proceed to help him take possession of the negro's property. The negro went to see Powell Saturday to try to make same kind of compromise. Powell did not listen to any of the negro’s propo­ sitions, but drew his gun and killed him at once. Powell has not yet teen ";ai>tured. Convicts to Work on 0. R. & C. Marion, Special.—About one hundred convicts arrived here last Thursday Hijht on their way to Mitclieli county to work on tha 0. R.

Most opportune is the publication of the year’s domestic wool clip by Mr. S. N. D. Norili of the National Associa­ tion of Wool Manufacturers. Reciproc­ ity schemes and methods for the bene­ fit of one industry at the expense of others have thrown upon Congress an aralanehe of literature, and some of the recommendations indicate that self­ ish constituents are willing to sacrifice the sheep raisers if they can therebv secure personal profit. That no change Is desirable In the tariff on wool will appear obvious after a little study of cxpcrierces in this industry under the last three revenue bills. During the wise operations of the McKinley law domestic ranches increased and the Iiome production of wool rose to 34S.- o3S,13S pounds in 1S93, while imports were but 53.152,585 pounds Immedi ately after the enactment of the Wil son bill foreign wool was thrown upon this market in such abundance that imports rose to 350.852.02G pounds In one year, an increase of 536 per cent, over the receipts from abroad under the protective tariff, and. exceeding even the high record of domestic yield. MeanwhPe the home grower found no profit In competing with Australian and other cheaply raised wool, eo Ihat sheep were sold for m.utton, and in­ vestors In the industry lost large sums of money. The annual yield In the United Btates steadily decreased until only about 259,153,251 pounds were clipped in 1897. With the resumption of a reasonable barrier against outside producers there came a renewal of domestic Interest in this crop, and each year brought a larger total, until the report just issued shows a clip of 302,- 502.32S pounds. This question of prices has been the most remarkable feature of the situa­ tion. although less bewildering when studied in connection with the records of imports and general business condi­ tions. According to the circular of .Coates Brothers, 100 grades of do­ mestic wool averaged 22.78 cents a pound on May I. 3S92, when the coun­ try was prosperous under a sound tar­ iff law and woolen mills were active’y engaged. By September I. 3896. the full effect of free trade was being felt, and the save grades of woo! averaged 12.22 cents a pound. This fall of forty- six per cent. In price was uot only due to the competition of cutside produc­ tion, but also to the disastrous condi­ tion of all Uidustrics and business un­ der low tariffs, which reudered the wage earners unable to pnrchase freely of warm clothing. Wiih the reversal of tariff policy and restoration of a duty on wool there came prompt re­ covery in this business, together with such confidence that the speculative influence became prominent. Despite large stocks there was Inflation of prices, and in December, 1S99. the average price was 24.70 cents, nearly two cents IiigIier than in 1892. Thai the advance was obtained too rapidly lias since appeared in the reaction to 17.06 cents, July 3, 1901.* Numerous •>nd heavy failures were precipitated Dy these erratic fluctuations,, not only among growers* but dealers and inanu- «cturers. Misfortunes must of Ce- j-Kssity follow unstable conditions, nud these . l Ci- J i u . are directly trace­ able to JnkerIng -ivJtb the tariff. It is not difficult to uw.’*rstand why the recovery in all department* of this industry has been slow, and on'> wit* iu Ilie last few months have distinctly satisfactory conditions prevailed. In addition to the enormous quantity of woolen goods of all kinds that were ac­ cumulated by importers, the receipts of raw wool from abroad during the three years eudiug July 3, ISO7. amouuted to 787,797,405 pounds. No amount of prosperity could absorb this enormous stock in a short time, and it was a short sighted policy that permitted tlie violent advance of priees. which was naturally followed by se­ vere ' reaction. Even after the flood of cheap foreign wool had subsided, home producers and holders of domes­ tic wool made the mistake of inflating quotations out of all proportion to the gains made in prices for the finished products. Consumptive demand, It is true, was greatly increased by the healthy tone of all business, but the rise In price of woolen goods was slow. Manufacturers were compelled to resort to the usual method undei the circumstances, which was a re­ duction In quality. Shoddy and cheap substitutes were used, while adulter­ ation with; cotton rwas general. Ulti­ mately the lack or orders produced a salutary-effect on* the wool market, ami ,prices were brought down to a point where the mills, could do busi- ness:at a profit. Within a very short time the situation had developed signs of an encouraging nature, and a slight recovery In prices is recorded. Manu*. facturers have orders assuring full oc­ cupation of mills until well into next year, and within a few weeks their purchases Cf raw material In the Bos­ ton market established a new record for a single week’s transactions, while the resulting movement also nroduoed flic largest week’s shipments. At the same tine there is every evidence that supplies will be ample for all needs uiit-1 the next dip begins, for Mr. North's report places the stock at 650,- 054,S42 pounds. In the light of these fact it must be seen that this industry is In no cou ditioii for a revival of revenue changes, even If special advantages might ac­ crue to some other industry by recipro­ cal arrangements. Every State and Territory in the Union has a share in the raising of sheep. Even little Rhode Island Is officially credited with over 10,000 head, while half a dozen States average about 3,000,000 each, Strug* gling against greater disadvantages than any other industry, at last wool and woolens appear to have attained a sound position, and capital no longer hesitates to* lend its aid to further expansion. At such times it Is im­ possible to overestimate the harm taai might be done by disturbing the situa­ tion in regard to-customs duties. The Chinese have a superstitious hor­ ror of being caught in the rain- ; Amerlo4H Fanner.* Certain 10 Frotest Against -Iti A delegation representing the Cham­ bers of Commerce of the United Stater has told President Roosevelt that ii believes reciprocity with Canada wil: be of great value to American com merce and industry. The Preslden told the delegation that he would taki the matter “tinder advisement.” Th;. is usually a polite method of say ins. that one is not ready to take action At this time Canada is the best pur­ chaser of American products after tht United Kingdom and Germany. Tbeie is no doubt that freer trade relations with the Dominion would add largeiy to its American purchases, especially as regards manufactured goods. Tbers would also be a largely increased con sumption of American coal. It will not Im an easy matter, how­ ever, to negotiate a reciprocity treaty such as Canada desires, for the reason that the Canadians will be more ready to receive than to give. They will ask for many concessions. They will be willing to make few. But even if a treaty should be negotiated on what could fairly be called reasonable terms, its ratification would be. more than doubtful. There are. so many interests which would protest against a reciproc­ ity In which they would see as injury to themselves. As a matter of course Canada would insist on lower duties on farm and gar­ den products. Against this concession all the American farmers anywhere near the boundary line between the two countries would protest. They would tell of their losses if the cheaper vegetables, eggs and poultry of the Canadians came into competition with their products. These farmers are not without influence in Congress. TVhilt the mine owners of Ohio and Indiana would favor free trade in coal. East­ ern mine owners who do not wish to have to compete with Xova Scotia coat In New England would object to it. The manufacturing Interests as a rule would look kindly on reciprocity, but other powerful interests would oppose It. So until a reciprocity project shall have-been devised which offends no­ body the customs duties on Canadian products are likely to remain as they are. To get up a scheme which does not displease somebody is beyond the power of man.—Chicago Tribune. Au Im lIauaiit F iutcU American Wage Earner—“We don’t want any of this infernal nonsense.

PLEA FOR A LOWER SUGAR LUTY. It U Urged Before Committee Tliat Immediate Relief Be Afforded the Cubaa Sugar Growers. Washington, Special.—The ways and means committee began hearing Wed­ nesday on the subject of Cuban reci­ procity, with a large representation present from the various interests which would be effected by legislation of this character. The Cuban industries were represented by Messrs. Place, Mendoza Dumois and Franke, chosen by commercial .organizations in vari­ ous parts of the island. The interests engaged in sugar production in Cuba were represented by Edwin F. Atkins, spokesman for an organization 'con­ trolling a large part of the sugar pro­ duction of the island; Hugh Kelly, of New York, and John F. Craig, of Phil­ adelphia. William Haywood was pres­ ent in behalf of the Hawaiian sugar planters and Henry T. Oxnard for the domestic beet sugar interests. The to­ bacco and other interests affected by Cuban production were also well rep­ resented. Edwin F. Atkins, of Boston, made the opening statement in behalf of re­ ciprocity. He spoke of the enormous overproduction of sugar throughout the world, amounting to about 1,500,- 000 tons, which had resulted in a crisis’ in the indifstry. European countries had met this by bounties, \$o that the German producers, by means of a bounty, were able to sell sugar at half a cent.per pound below its cost of pro­ duction. The cost of production in Cuba was 2.06 cents per pound, which • was somewhat above the selling price. Mr. Atkins stated that there was now about $20,000,000 of standing cane In Cuba and at present prices a consid­ erable part of this would not be har­ vested. Th'? loss to labor, he thought, was likely to lead to disturbances. At the time set for the withdrawal of American troops there would be, in his opinion, a deficit in tho insular revenues which were largely recruited from the sugar industry. Mr. Atkins stated that a 50 per cent, reduction of duties was desired on the various pro­ ducts of the island, but in response to inquiries from Mr. Payne he said that the sugar industry felt they should have a 100 per cent, reduction. He was opposed to a drawback. Mr. Atkins said that if present conditions contin­ ued Cuba probably would become so desperate as to be forced into annex­ ation. Louis Place, a merchant of Havana, and head of the Cuban delegation, pre­ sented the case from the Cuban stand­ point. At present,<he said, Cuba was buying large quantities -of foreign goods and if reciprocity was,brought about with the United States, Cuba would buy Ameiican cotton goods, wine, and many other articles now bought abroad. He believed this mar­ ket in Cuba would amount to $250,000,- 000 within two years. Francis B. Thurber, of the United States Export Association, stated that the primary consideration was one of good faith on the part of the United States to Cuba. Hugh Kelley, of New York, who has large sugar holdings in Cuba, said that as an American he urged that recip­ rocal concessions be made. He believed that if there was no reciprocity Cuba would ask for annexation and if this occurred the voice of tho American people will be for admitting the island. Mr. Mendoza, of the Cuban delega­ tion, pictured the distress if present conditions were continued and said the loss on the sugar crop of the Island th?3 year would approximate $12,000,000. He strongly favored the free admission of sugar and reciprocal concessions on American goods enter­ ing Cuba. Foraksr Re-Elected. Columbus, O., Special,—Senator For- akey was formally re elected to the United States Senate. The Senate a& journed to the chamber of the House of Representatives for the joint ten­ sion at which the ballot of yesterday taken by the separate houses was con­ firmed. Senator Foraker had practical­ ly no opposition, the division being purely partisan, the Democrats sup­ porting Hon. Charles H. Baker, of Cin- cinati. Every Republican present cast his vote for Senator Foraker. The Sen­ ator made an address to the General Assembly. 7 Kentucky Elects McCreary. Frankfott, Ky., Special.—Both hous­ es of the Legislature met in joint ses­ sion and compared the journals of the two houses, showing the election of James B. McCrearv for Senator to suc­ ceed D. J.‘ Befeoe. Owing to indefinite- ness in the Kentucky statute regarding the day on which the ballot for Sen­ ator shall be taken the proceedings of Tuesday and Wednesday will be re­ pealed next Tuesday and Wednesday. Senator Simmons Presided. - Washington, Special.—Senator Sim­ mons Tuesday was the recipient of one of the greatest compliments that can be paid a new Senator. He was called to preside over the Senate. He oe- . Frye, President of the Senate. He oc­ cupied the chair for nearly two hours. During part of the time Senator Mason of Illinois was speaking about iecipro- city with Cuba. Senator Simmoos pre­sided over the highest legislative body in the world with a quiet dignity that bespoke acquaintance with the complex, rules of parliament procedure. Must Have Negro Schools. Guthrie, O. T.f Special.—Chief Jus- - tice Burford has issued an order to the effect that if there be only one colored child of school age In a school district the authorities must provide a sep­ arate school house and teacher. Thu order takes in the entire Ternrorv ana will prove very expensive to the van: ous eduuties. EARTHQUAKE IN MEXICO. Three Hundred People Are Said to Have Been Killed. Mexico City, SpeclaL-One Ot the most terrible catastrophes ever re­ corded In the State of Guerrero is reported to have occurred late Fri­ day afternoon, when an extremely violent earthquake shock was felt at Chilpancingo, causing a great loss of life and injuring many- persons. De tails from the stricken district are very meagre, but scattering reports received here indicate that probably 300 persons were killed and as many more injured. It is known that the State capital, the parish church and many business houses and residences are in ruins and there is much suf­ fering from awful seismic distur­ bance. One of the edifices that suf­ fered most was the Federal _ Tele­ graph office, which explains the pauci­ ty of news that has so far reached this city. Later, meagre details began to arrive here. The telegraph lines and apparatus at Chilpancingo were bad­ ly damaged, but the employes, all of whom were uninjured, proceeded to erect an improvised telegraph office on the outskirts of the city. The num­ ber of dead was greater in the parish church than in any single place, as a crowd of worshipers were gathered there for the afternoon service. The solid masonry-walled roof came top­ pling down on the worshipers as if it had been wrenched from its bear­ ings by a thousand strong hands. Sev­ eral people were killed there. The War Department has ordered the troops in the neighborhood to co­operate in the work of rescue. Until this work is completed it will be im­possible to accurately learn the num­ber of victims. It is believed, how­ever, that this is one of the most destructive seismic phenomena thal has occurred in Mexico. The greater part of the population of Chilpan­cingo are now camping out on the outskirts of the town.Earthquake shocks were felt in many other cities and towns. In Mexico City the earthquake took place at 5:17 Thursday afternoon am! was of such violence as to shake the most substantial buildings. The Pan- American Congress was in session at the time. The first movement was one of trepidation and was sharp. It was followed by an easier oscillatory movement from north-northwest to south-southwest. The duration was 55 seconds. The damage in this city was only slight.The' State of Guerrero has always been the focus, of seismic disturb­ ances. Reports received here tonight state that the shock was very severe at Chilapa. No casualties reported so far from there. In duration the Chil­pancingo shock was less important than that In Mexico City, having last­ed 50 seconds against 55 seconds at the capital.Up to 11 o’clock at night no further news had come through from Chil­pancingo. The earthquake was also heavy at Iguala. in the State of Guerrero, destroviug the parish chucii and many buildings In the city and neighborhood. Among the latter was the sugar mill of General Frisbie, an American. The mill had just been completeu and fitted up with Ameri­can machinery at a cost of $200,000. The property loss is immense through­out the State of Teurrero.The Associated Press correspon­ dent has just seen a private tele­ gram from Chilpancingo from a gen­tleman to relatives in this city sav­ing: “I and family are safe. Mair.' houses were destroyed.” The fact that he does not refer to loss of life is considered significant and it is now developed that the first estimate of deaths was greatly ex-aggerated. Train Wrecked. La Fayette. La., Special.—Ths fast passenger train which left New Ccleans was wrecked Fridav at Code station, 12 miles east of LaFayette. Five pas­ senger cars were thrown from the track, all well filled with passengers, hut fortunately only three were hurt. The injured are: Dr. H. C. Smisson, of Slocum, internal injuries; Dr. Brecker, of Detroit, leg hurt: Mrs. C. H. Ham- bert, of Buffalo. N. Y., iniured internal­ ly. The injured were brought here, sent to a hotel and are reported as do­ing well. Bank Closes. Albany, Ge,, Special.—An application for a temporary receiver has been filed by the directors of the Commercial Bank of Albany. The bank- did not open for business and a posted notice stated that the bank had suspended payment, pending the action of the State authorities. The liabilities of the bank are estimated at $123,000, with assets of $191,000 in bills receivable and real estate. Morgan Makes Report. Washington, Special.—Senator Mor- gan, chairman of the Senate committee on inter-oceanic canals, made a. brief report of that committee, as the result of his investigation of the status of the Panama sale proposition. He stated that he had learned officially that the French government had made no pro­ position to the United States in con­ nection with the Panama canal, and that nothing had been heard from the government of Colombia on that sub­ ject. A sub-committtee consisting o.’ Senators Harris, Kittridge and Foster was appointed to take testimony con- corning the various canal routes sug gested. Nominations CorYrmed. Washington, Special.—The Senate Thursday confiremed the following nominations: N. H. Alexander, receiv­ er of public money, at Montgomery, Ala. Postmasters: P. D. Barker, Mo bile. South Carolina, G. S. McCravey Laurens; J. C. Hunter, Union; P Rion1 Winnsboro; T. E. Husbands Dillon; E. Appelt 1 Manning; E. A. S Mixson, Barnwell; J. F. Ensor, Colum­ bia; E. Harper. Seneca. Will Go to Geo-gia. New York, Special.—The mandate ci the United States Supreme Court, in the face of the agitation against the Gaynors, charged with complicity in the frauds for which Captain O. M. Carter is now undergoing imprison­ ment, was received here by the United States Supreme Court. Judge Lacombc made the order directing the four de­ fendants to appear In court on Mon­ day next, on which they will be sur­ rendered to a marshal and taken tc Georgia for trial. SOUTHERNINDUSTRIAL New Enterprises That Are Enriching Our Favored Section* Kentucky Qil Fields. In a recent issue of the MOrhing Herald of Lexington, Kyi, is published & sketch Of the development of tho ail field iii Eastern Kentucky, about fifty miles from Lexington. The beginning of the advancement of that section ie traced to the construction of about twenty-five years ago .by the Chesa­ peake & Ohio Railway of a road from Mt Sterling to Huntington, W. Va. Iron ore had been mined in Bath coun­ ty for seventy-five years in small quantities, but the* arrival of the steam road increased the output of the ore and of timber. A little more Uiau a year ago the Mt. Sterling Oil & Gas Co., which had acquired leases in the neighborhood of Ragland, drilled its first oil well in Bath county, and al­most every well since drilled in that county ha3 been found to be produc­ tive. The Herald says;. “None of the wells have been gush­ ers, and now that* the field is partially developed, no gushers are expected. One reason that the oil would not Uow without pumping is that it is free from gas, the pressure which causes the oil in most gushers to flow freely. A sec­ ond reason is the quality of the oil itself.“The oil produced In the Licking river fields is a thick, black, heavy lu­ bricant, very similar in appearance to hot tar. The quality is good, and the oil men claim that it will sell on the ground at $4 to $4.25 per barrel. The only market found for it so far, how­ ever, is local, ‘the Bath county ma­ chinists using it as a lubricant on del­ icate machinery that requires the best quality of oil, paying fifty and sev­ enty-five cents per gallon. The oil men believe that a market can readily be found when occasion demands it.“The ordinary tanks provided for the first flow of the wells have been filled. As yet no pipe lines have oeen laid, and, indeed, it has not yet been determined to what point they will be laid. “The Guffey & Galey Company, re­ puted to be largest independent oil concern in the world, is constructing a 65,000-barredl tank within 200 yards of the depot at Ragland. “They have few, if any, leases in the vicinity, all of the neighboring terri­ tory having been already leased. Mr. J. E. Maguire, a representative of the Guffey & Galey Company, stated that his company expected to handle any oil offered to it if it. could see its way clear to make a profit on the oil. The Guffey & Galey people evidently be­ lieve that there is money in the field by going to the expense of erecting such a tank. There are no larger tanks in the country than the one at Ragland, although the same people have forty tanks of its size in various parts of the United States. Mr. Ma­ guire said that the tank would cost about $20,000 when completed. The expense of erecting it alone, without the cost of the material, will be be­ tween $3500 and $5000. It will be 180 feet in diamater and thirty feet in height.“Nearly all the wells which have been drilled at Ragland have been plugged to await the completion of the tank. When the tank is completed they will be pumped to their full capacity. If the tank is then filled in any rea­ sonable time, which is confidently ex­ pected. active measures will at once be token to construct pipe lines, probably to Salt Lick, though there has been some talk of pumping the oil to the top of a nearby mountain and pipe it to the Ohio river, and at the river load it into barges for final destination. “One of the most promising compa­ nies in the Bath county field is the Licking Valley Oil & Gas Co., compos­ ed almost entirely of Lexington men. The company has 8600 acres of land leased in Ihe immediate territory, a large portion of which is 'Contiguous to the Ragland wells. Gtner leases are access the mountain, and some He to­ ward Salt Lick, while it has several hundred acres of leased land in Meni­ fee adjoining producing wells. The company has subleased part of its land to Mr. J. M. Sweeny, who has drilled one well upon it. The well was found to be a good producing well, but was immediately plugged up to await storage facilities. The company is drilling another well nearby, and is now nearly 400 feet deep. Not less than thirty wells have been drilled in Bath county, of which number at- least twenty-five are profitable wells. “Two wells were shot at Yale, about two miles across the .mountain from Ragland. Oil was found in the wells, but it was so flooded with salt water that it is not deemed profitable at present to work. IddustriaI Miscellany. The British steamship Cayo Bonto sailed from Pensacola last week with a cargo ot 14.350 hales of cotton, val­ ued at $387,403. The Morgan Line ot steamships has begun regular service between the Southern Pacfic terminals at Galves­ ton and New York. The company has recently placed several of Its largest vessels upon this line. The Norfolk & Southern Company, recently chartered in New Jersey with $1,500,000 capital stock, it is stated will engage in the coastwise steamship business between ports on Hampton Roads and points further South. Erenst B. Hocs of Yonkers, N. Y., Is one of the incorporators. A bulletin of the census bureau shows that the value of manufactured products In Tennessee in 1900 was $107,527,060, a gain of 48 per cent, over 1890. The invested capital was $71,222,- 680, a gain of 38 per cent. The first submarine cable to sur­ render to wireless telegraphy is that lying between Rome and Sardinia. Hs use will shortly be discontinued, as the 200 kilometres of sea between the Imperial City and the island has been successfully traversed by wire­less messages. It is stated that the cotton-oi! mills In Mississippi have run the price of seed up to $14 per ton, and it is ex­pected that before the close .of the sea­son seed will reach $17. Farmer, arc said to bej holding crop for higher prices. Mr. J. W. Hall, of Petersburg, Va., has just consummated a sale of 3500 acres of timber land to the Blackstone Manufacturing Co. The consideration is said to be $37,500. It is stated that the lumber firm ot Woodward & Sons of Richmond, Va.. has purchased valuable property In that city on which a factory will to built and a lumber-yard established. SCRLEY1N THE SOUTH Addresses StHdents of Negro School In Savannah. RECEIVING OVAI IONS EVERYWHERE TbeMan Who Destroyed tlie Naval Power of Spain Receiving Highest Honors In Dixie. Savannah, Ga., Special.—Admiral • Schley, accompanied by General VV. W. Gordon, visited the Georgia State Agricultural and Mechanical, College (colored) at noon Tuesday. The col- Iege band escorted the visitors to Meldrim Auditorium, where the stu­dents and many of the representative colored citizens of Savannah had as­sembled. President R. R. Wright re­ceived the admiral and other guests at the entrance to the chapel. The admiral, escorted by President Wright ascended the rostrum, receiving cheers and applause from the audi­ ence. The students sang “America,” concluding with the old plantation melody, “Steal Away to Jesus.” Ad­miral Schley made a short address, in the course of whieb, after compli­menting the colored soldiers and sailors in the war with Spain for their -bravery, he said: “It gives me, great delight to be present today to witness the de­velopment of an idea which will bring to every citizen happiness and pros­perity. Schools are established for the development of men and women In mind, hand and heart. If you will fulfill the full requirements of de­ velopment of mind and hand, you will secure to yourselves ' comfort and happiness, and be a blessing to your race and the nations.”At nigbt a brilliant reception in honor of Admiral Schley was beld at the residence of General W. W. Gor­ don. Captain T. F. Schley, of the army, son of the admiral, came down from Fort McPherson, Atlanta, to see his father and was a guest at the re­ception. To Be Welcomed at Knoxville. Knoxville, Tenn., Special—The cham­ ber of commerce has arranged its pro­gramme of reception to Admiral Schley who will visit Knoxville February 5 and 6. The principal features will be a parade on the morning of the 5th, a public reception and a banquet at niebt. On tbe second day the admiral and party will be driven to the birth­ place of Admiral Farragut and at night another reception will be tendered tbe distinguished guests by the Cumber­ land Club. The local chapter of the Daughters of the Revolution will enter­ tain Mrs. Schley and during the ad­miral’s stay unveil a tablet erected at the home of Win. Blount, first Govern­or of Tennessee. Chicago Germans to- Honor Him. Chicago, Special.—A monster, demon­ stration by the German population ol Chicago, including a torch parade ol 4,000 veterans of the German army and a chorus of 1,000 voices, was slated for the coming celebration in honor of Ad­miral Schley. Thi-t it is not to be is only due to the fact that the events al­ready arranged for his entertainment more than occupy the time which the admiral can spend in this city. Late Tuesday afternoon the committee held a meeting at which it was decided to abandon all of the plans for the enter­tainment and instead to formulate an address of welcome to be magnificently engrossed and to present it to Schleyduring his visit.______- Policeman KHIs Two Men.

Parker acting as grand mar shal. The beautiful gavel of a past grand master was presented to a. a. Royster by S. W. Minor and was ac­cepted In a speech marked by a fine taste and feeling. The grand . lodge was invited to attend the good roads convention here February 1015. T committee to codify the rulings and decisions of the grand masters was appointed, being composed of Thomas B Womack, P. M. Pearsall and A. B. Andrews, Jr. The following was ap­ pointed as the local board of Uie Ox­ ford Orphan Asylum: W. B. Bal­lou, W. L. Mitchell, F. P. Hobgood, Robert H. Bradley was appointed grand librarian. After prayer by Grand Chaplain Marshall the session of the grand lodge closed. Grand Tiler Bradley says he has never since 186» missed a session of the grand lodge and that this was the best of them all. The attendance was larger, there were representative men from all parts of the State and there was a great deal of young blood. The grand lodge does not approve of the remission of the dues to the grand lodge of aged and infirm members of the order. In other words the subor­dinate lodges, while they may remit the dues of such members, so far as sub-lodges are concerned should nevertheless pay them to the grand lodge. The State Superintendent of Public Instruction decides that a term^ of the public schools must be continuous, unless an epidemic renders it neces­ sary to close the school. In Transyl­vania county the board made such an order. A teacher closed his school three weeks so his pupils could “pull fodder,” and then taught three weeks after the time prescribed for the schools to close. The superintendent refused to pay him for that three weeks. The board sustained the super­ intendent, and now the State' Super­intendent sustains the board. The State Superintendent of Public Instruction is having no end of trouble with the reports from the various coun­ ties as to the sums needed to bring all the schools up to four months terms. The reports so far received are with­ out exception incorrect and incomplete. One which came called for over $1,000, and yet was not correctly signed. Be­ sides it was full of errors. A special from Durham says:—J. L. Wright, white, 34 years of age, met a horrible death in the Erwin Mill Fri­ day afternoon about I O'clock. Caught in a belt his body was jerked to the pully above and his right leg torn off at the hip joint. He lived some eight or ten minutes after the accident. The-number of convicts now on the Ohio River and Charleston Railroad is 407; the greatest number on any road since , the completion of the Western North- Carolina Railroad. The State Poultry show held at High Point was a very creditable affair and was largely attended. The prizes were numerous and valuable. Cuts a Han and Womaa Winston-Salem, SpeciaL—CharlesStewart, colored, was arrested at his home in West Winston on two war­rants, charging him with making as­ saults with a knife, upon a white man named William Sizemore and his sis­ter. The latter works in the picking, room at the R. J. Reynolds factory. She says that Stewart in passing her made some improper and insulting re­ marks. She told her brother what the negro said to her and at the dinner •hour Mr. Sizemore called on Stewart and asked him what he meant by the language .used to his sister. The discussion resulted' in the white man knocking the negro down tv/o or three times. Tlie latter drew his knife and cut Mr. Sizemore and his sister, while the latter was endeavoring to separate the fighters. The wounds are not serious. Stewart was arranging tc skip when captured. Two Miners Killed. Chattanooga, Tenn., Special.—Two negro miners were killed and eight others injured, one of them probably fatally, in an accident Friday at the mines of the Cumberland Coal and Coke Company. They were riding on a car and while going down hill crash­ed into a train of emnty cars. The dead are: Leon Milis and FloydThompson. An Easy Way. Montgomery, Ala., Special. — The State Superintendent of Education has been informed of the wrest of eight negroes in Henry county who appeared for an examination with a full list of the questions and answers as prepared Secretly by the board of education. County Superintendent Espy had them arrested, and they claimed that they received the questions from a negro teacher named Brooken, paying him $5 each.

All of the parties aJ reSt- except HaI1> who has escapted into Georgia. “ Maryland School Books. Baltimore, SpeciaI--The Baltimore County Tax-Payers Convention has placed a ban upon any text books which does not give Rear Admiral W. S. Schley credit of the naval victory at Santiago.

HOUSE. - .Twenty-Second D ay-T heH ouseJ Representatives spent the day in gen eral discussion of the pension appro nriation fiill. the first of the annual budgets. The debate took a widerahge. Fr. Grosvenor, of Ohio, and Mr. H-P- burn, of Iowa, took occasion to de- nounce a report presented to the last Grand Ariny of the Republic encamp­ ment criticizing the courseofthem selves and other members.ofCengrfeS on the veteran "preference bill, wb cn was defeated at the -last session They explained that their opposition to the bill was due to the iucorporation m the bill of a clause which had not been endorsed by the 0 rand^ nJyfha Ahe RepubUc, placing veterans of the Soanlsh war In the preferential clasa Mr. Rixey, of Virginia, caused some­ thing of a stir on the Democratic Side by advancing a proposition to open the doors of the NationaL Soldiers Homes to ex-Confederate veterans and to furnish Federal aid to State -on- federate homes. Mr. Richardson, of Alabama, was the only Democrat who joined Mr. Rixey in support of it.Mr. Barney, who was in charge ot the bill, said the estimates for the payment of pensions had decreased from $144,000,000 to $138,500,000. He was asked by Mr. Richardson, of Tennessee, why the amount for pen­ sions decreased five and a half million, while the number of pensioners were said to be larger. Mr. Barney explained that this was accounted for by the fact that the averages were decreasing and the number of large pensions (those from $50 to $75 a month), was also decreasing. In reply to another ques­ tion he stated that the Commissioner of Pensions believed that the high tids of pension payments had been reached and the amount required probably would remain stationary for some years.Mr. Richardson, of Tennessee, the Democratic leader, interposed' to de­ clare that never would he be willing to see ex-Confederates enter Union homes. The debate grew lively, differ­ ences of opinion developing on the Democratic side. Mr. ‘ Richardson, of Alabama, sided with Mr. Rixey, while Mr. Lamb, of Virginia; Mr. Bartlett, of Georgia, and others, opposed the suggestion Mr. Rixey declared that he proposed to continue to advocate the passage of the bill he had introduced whether it proved popular or not. Twenty-third Day—The House con­ tinued the debate on the pension ap­ propriation bill and much of the time was given to the discussion of the pro­position advanced by Mr. Rixey, of Virginia, to open the doors of the sol­ diers’ home to ex-Confederate veterans. Two notable speeches were made in support of the proposition, one by Mr. Gardner, a Michigan Republican, and the other by Mr. DeArmond, Democrat, of Missouri.Mir. DeArmond’s eloquence aroused both sides of the House. The Republi­ cans, with the exception of Mr. Gard­ner, took no part in the discussion of the Rixey suggestion and he met with much opposition on the Democratic side on the ground that it was utterly im­ practicable. Mr. Lamb, of Virginia, read a number of telegrams from prom­inent ex-Confederates of Hichmond protesting against it.Mr. Gardner as an ex-TInion soldier said he sympathized with the spirit that sought to tak8 care of our own and predicted that the time would come, and at no distant day, when the homes for disabled veterans main­tained by the common government would be opened alike to needy sol­ diers whether of the Union or Confed­ eracy. His expression of the sentiment that it was better to care for the desti­tute than care for the graves of the dead, immortal though they might be, was greeted with a round of applause on the Democratic side. He spoke of the better feeling engendered between the sections by the Spanish war, and said that since then whatever differ­ ences existed among the people of the country had ceased to exist as section­al differences and notice had been ser­ ved on the civilized world that in future war with the United States the whole country must be reckoned with. Twenty-third Day—The House held a short session, devoid of events. It adjourned at 4:30 p. m.

Twenty-second Day—In the Senate Mr. Nelson, of Minnesota, called up tho bill providing for the establish- taent of a Department of Com­ merce, He explained the necessity which he said existed for the passage of such a measure and was plied with questions by several Senators, who said that sufficient time had not been allowed for looking into the merit 3 of the measure. Mr. Teller criticised that feature relating to the transfer of tlie ieological Survey, while Mr. Hale said that the bill provided for a De­ partment which would ultimately be one of the largest in the government. After some further discussion, the bill went over subject to call by Mr. Nel­son. Twenty-third Day—For the first time this season the Philippine question ap­ peared in the Senate and the interest which was taken indicates that it will occupy the attention of the upper branch of Congress for some time when the tariff bill is reported. The Philip­ pines were the subject of an address by Mr. Hoar, of Massachusetts, who spoke on his resolution introduced Monday, providing for the appointment of a Senate committee to investigate the administration of those islands; Mr. Lodge, Mr. Hoar’s colleague, said he regarded the resolution as a reflec­tion on the committee of which he was *-’.airman and aays his Committeee wa* perieetly able to handle any investiga­tion which might be conducted. Mr. carJuack, Democrat, agreed with him. The discussion was leading rapidly to an opening up of the whole Philip­pine question, when it was agreed that the resolution should go over: Mr.Mason, of Illinois, made a speech in favor of reciprocity with Cuba and dis­ cussed th8 protective policy in general.^ Twenty-third Day—A special discus­sion was precipitated in the Senate by some remarks submitted by Mr. Hale, of Maine, in respect to hills relative to the formation of a naval reserve which ’ he introduced. ©H took strong ground against the organization Hf a naval re­serve. his comments being construed by some of the Senators into a reflec­tion upon volunteer soldiers and land militia. Half a dozen Senators were on their feeet in an instant to defend the volunteers and the National Guard ofthe various States and the debate took so wide a range that Senators went back in their references to the days of the Revolutionary war to seek HUistrations for their arguments. While no aetton was possible at tbi« time, it is likely the discussion upon the measures, should they be reported. Will be Iivelj .

Tork Cham ber of Commerce Si XIlntIfal of the Fact That Im porters and Foreign Steamship Xntereete Should Not Dominate O ar Policy. The New Xorit Chamber of Com­ merce has declined to pass the follow­ ing resolutions reported by a commit­ tee whose chairman is Gnstav H. Schwab, agent of a foreign line of steamships: “Resolved, That this Chamber hereby expresses its disapproval of the action taken by the National Reciprocity Con­ vention at Washington on the 20tb ultimo, as subversive of all attempts to bring about closer trade relations with our sister nations, and to open new and wider markets for our prod­ ucts; and be it further “Resolved, That the Chamber views with apprehension the policy advocated by the Reciprocity Convention, as like­ ly to invite hostile legislation on the part of the other nations against this country to the great detriment of its commercial interests.” For once the New York Chamber of Commerce seems to have had the pres­ ence of mind to recognize the fact that it is not wholly committed to the inter­ ests of importers and foreign freight carriers. Present at the meeting were two gentlemen who had served the Ghamber as delegates to the Reciproc­ ity Convention. Messrs. Charles A Schieren and dames Talcott demurred to the proposed expression of disap­ proval, and in this they were supported by Cornelius N. Bliss, who said he fa­ vored a proper system of reciprocity, but that he did not think the Cham­ ber was sufHciently informed to discuss or take action at this time on so im­ portant a question. The rebuke was indirect, and all the more effective on that account. Three hundred of the leading manufacturers of the United States, after six weeks of preparatory consideration and two days of thor­ ough debate in convention, had, with but. two dissenting votes, and one of those a delegate from the New Eng­ land Free Trade League, decided In favor of such reciprocity as may be had “without injury to our manufac­ turing, commerce and farming." Right­ ly Mr. Bliss could contend that snap judgment ought not to be takes against the deliberate action of such a body of well informed business men as they who made up the Reciprocity Convention. So Mr. Schwab's resolu­ tions were “referred back.” a polite euphemism for “sat down on.” The free trade New York Times, displeased with this, remarks: “We cannot for the life of us see why this should have been done. They tell the indisputable truth in a straight­ forward way. The action taken by th* Reciprocity Convention after its cap ture and perversion by the protection Ists is undoubtedly subversive of at­ tempts to open new and wider mar- kets for our products; and the policy advocated by their convention is jusi as undoubtedly of a nature to Invitf retaliatory action by other nations As a statement ot fact, the resolutions are impeccable.” Does the Times know of any pol­ icy so “undoubtedly of a nature to In­ vite retaliatory action by other na­ tions" as that of granting to one na­ tion special tariff concessions that arf denied to competing nations? Does it not know, for example, that the new German tariff now under consid­ eration in the Reichstag contains a clause which provides for the imposi­ tion of double duties upon imports from any country which grants to an­ other nation a lower rate of duties than those imposed upon the products of Germany? To state the case more explicitly, the ratification of the French treaty would be instantly followed, by such an increase in the German sched­ ules as would practically bar out all American imports. What then? Why, a similar reciprocity treaty with Ger­ many, of course. And if with Ger­ many. with all other nations, always excepting Gre1Ct Britoio, the most Iibr £t$5;of all buyers of American exports, but which, having no tariff, could not retaliate- In short, free trade, or tar­ iff war all round. Of all the policies calculated to -provoke reprisals and retaliation, thev'-bpecial trade treaty policy is the most provocatory. The New York Chamber of Commerce did well, to "refer back” Mr. Schwab’s resolutions. Is TM* SenHltyt Our venerable contemporary, the New York Evening PosL says editor­ ially of President Roosevelt’s message, under the head of “Vagueness:” “We are advised that reciprocity must be treated as the handmaiden of protection. Does that convey any idea to an expectant Congret- 1 It conveys none to us.” But it decs to most people. Turn­ ing to its news columns of the same date, the well in which truth some­ times is found, we see that Lord Roths­ child said in London to a representa­ tive of the Associated Press: “If reci­ procity is only to be a handmaiden, it will not do England much good." What is the matter with the Post, any­ way? Did it think it could keep from Americans knowledge of the fact ihat reciprocity was fcr the benefit of foreigners? Again th e Internatianat Traat. According to dispatches from Pitts­ burg, overtures have been made by the glass manufacturers of Belgium, through their representative, M. Jules Gemeart, to the Pittsburg Plate Glass Company and to the American Window Glass Company, looking toward the formation of an international glass combination which shall control the world’s trade in plate and window glass. The plan proposed, it is stated, is to advance the Belgian prices to meet the American prices and to di­ vide markets. In case the proposed deal is consummated, it will be up to our free trade friends to explain to a waiting public Just how the abolition of the tariff on glass will destroy the glass “trusts,” so-called. Minnesota Is called the “Bread and Butter State,” and rightly, too, for last year her mills turned out 26,630,500 barrels of flour and churned over SOj- 000.000 pounds of butter. ClSAPPOINTINa PnaidaitxsoaHveuwstenaRa Nat Ot All SatltfiMtoiy to FrOe Trader!. President Roosevelt’s first ihessage to Congress Is Iirspme Ways a disap­ pointment. it is decidedly so to the free traders. They looked for some­ thing different. “He is a Harvard man,” they said, “and of course he can­ not be a protectionist.” How faulty the syllabus proved to be may be gath­ ered by the Presidents reference to the subject of the tariff: - “There is general acquiescence in our present tariff System as a National policy. The first requisite to our pros­ perity is the continuity and stability Cf this economic policy. Nothing Could be more Unwise than to disturb the business interests of the country by any general tariff change at this time.” Still greater shock to superior sensi­ bilities is involved in tife following: .“Reciprocity must be treated as the handmaiden of protection. Our first duty is to see that the protection granted by the tariff In every case where it is needed is maintained, and that reciprocity be sought for so far as it can be safely done without injury to our home industries. Just how far this is must be determined by the individual case, remembering always that every application of our tariff policy to meet our shifting national needs must be conditioned upon the cardinal fact that the duties must never be reduced below the point that will cover the difference between the labor cost here and abroad. The well­ being of the wage worker is a prime consideration of our entire policy of economic legislation,” AU of which goes to show that a man of brains and clear thinking may drink freely at the fountain of free trade in­ spiration and yet recover from it—that is, provided he be a man whose anx­ iety is for the highest and best inter­ ests of the people of his own country and not for the peoples of other coun­ tries. The tariff and reciprocity sec­ tions of the message show President Roosevelt to be precisely that kind of p. man. It is hard on Harvard, to be sure, but it is true. , X et I t Atone. The best way to treat the tariff is to let it alone. The most amazing thing In the world is this persistent attempt to have it tinkered. There is no mere sense in it than there would be in a movement to revive the free silver is­ sue on the ground that the country, having prospered under the gold stand­ ard, ought to have a change. The two things go together. It was the Ding- Iey act, in conjunction with the mon­ etary legislation of the Republican party, that brought the country out of depression and established its fortunes anew. These two are the twin pillars of the temple of prosperity. Why should either of them be shaken? We hope and we believe that loyal­ ty to country as well as to party will be strong enough to cause this view to prevail. Wait until some- harm comes from the tariff, Instead of un­ told blessings, before we think of changing it. There is danger to the people and the threat of ruin to the Republican party in every assault upon the tariff.—Red Wlng (Minn) Repub­ lican. i . WTly the Worfeerg D on't Join In. It is a source of great disappoint­ ment to anti-tariff men that the cry against the trusts, so-calied, meets with so faint a response among these who, if the cry were sound and true, ought to be aroused by it to defend their interests. If, as alleged, the trusts increase prices and depress wages, the wage earners should be fully aware of it and should lose no time In uniting for the regulation, if not for the suppression, of a gigantic evil. But the fact is that a great army of men and women is employed by the concerns called trusts, and these work­ ers are probably much better informed on the matter of wages and prices than the anti-trust writers. It is with them a matter of everyday experience, and they do not join in the hue and cry. Hardships there probably are, and neither small nor large employers are always Just to their people, but there seems to be no evidence of oppressive conditions on a scale large enough to justify the drastic punitory devices ad- vocated by some politicians.

He lingered on in frightful agony tor some two or three hours, when death put an end to bis sufferings. It is to a certain extent pleasing to be able to record that in this instance of cold-blooded murder, the murderer himself shared the fate he had designed for his Imperial mas­ ter. for the thrower was mortally in­ jured by the explosion, being unable >n account of the crowd to retire to a place of safety after launching his missile of death at the emperor Justice needs no wings.

No Ere was found in “the meeting-house" in olden time, and stoves were carried to church, as were tallow candles to the evening meetings. In 1737 the im­ portant vital question at a legal town meeting was, “Shall men. and their wives be seated together in pews?” and the vote ram an emphatic “No!’- In 1744, about the beginning of Jona­ than Edwards’ troubles in the parish. It was voted not "to pay the charge of bringing his daughter from Brook­ field.” In 1738 this appears on the town records: "Taking into consid­ eration the difficulty Mr. Edwards hath laborod under this year and some time past with respect to his firewood, the town voted that those persons who have not this year brought him a load of, wood might have liberty between this time and next Tuesday night to bring each one his load of wood.” If there was not a sufficiency of wood by that time, the town then voted, the selectmen should see that the deficiency was met at the cost of the town.

We have found oats for hay to be an easy and profitable crop; but to be a success, they should be planted in the fall. . The quality of the soil must determine largely the time of plant­ ing. We want to get the oats well started; but we do not want too large a growth before real cold weather sets In; for If they have begun to run up, they are more liable to be killed back badly. On the other hand, if the cold comes before fhey are firmly established, the freezing and thawing is likely to throw the plants out of the ground, especially on clay land, for such land expands and cohtraets very much more than loamy or sandy soil under the action of cold and moisture. The Georgia Experiment Station has adopted a system of drilling their cat seed in the bottom of small furrows, which places the bud of the oats below the general surface, thus making the soil give it a partial protection. But their method of planting only two rows at a time is rather laborious, and until some better tool has been found for putting in the seed than the drill they use; the practice will not be generally adopted. If the oats are planted at the right time the danger from winter kill­ ing is not great, and only in a very exceptionally cold time will your stand be destroyed. Also, if the winter graz­ ing or Turf Oats are .sown instead of the Rust-Proof, the chances of success will be still greater; while if your ob­ ject is hay, these Turf Oats are de­ cidedly preferable, as the straw is more tender and stock eat it up clean,-where they leave a large part of the stiff Rust-Proof straw. We had one exceptionally fine acre of these Turf Oats last spring, from which we gathered ten big two-horse wagon loads cf excellent hay. The oats stood from four to six feet high all over the field, and were cut just as the top grains began to reach the dough state, and while the straw was green. We have been feeding our nine head of horses and mules on this hay all summer, with the addition of a small feed of corn once a day, and they have kept in fine condition, doing heavy work all the time. The land on which these best oats were grown was a stiff clay loam, and had been manured the year before; the land was In tomatoes at the time we broke it up for oats. Where land has been well broken in the spring we do not usually rebreak for cats; but In this case we had had some very hard rains, and the land had run to­ gether and become hard, making its physical condition so poor that a re- plowing seemed necessary. It was rather dry at the time, and the land broke up lumpy, necessitating consid­ erable work to make it fine; but we worked it down, replowed, and worked it down again before sowing two bush­ els of seed to the acre. If land is broken deeply for any win­ ter grain crop, great care must be taken to work it down until the seed­ bed is fine and firm, otherwise the grain roots cannot get a good hold and will be more liable to suffer from the cold. The unusual success of this acre of oats was undoubtedly due to the extra work put on the seod-bed, for we had other oats on equally good land planted at the same time whose yield was not much over haif as large. Oats are strong feeders and very large users of potash and nitrogen; the analysis of oats in bloom about the time they are cut for hay, show them to contain. ammonia, 1.19 per cent.; phosphoric acid, .07 per cent, and potash, 2.54 per cent, If your land is strong and you have a good pea-vine stubble to sow your oats on, your soil will probably contain a sufficiency of ammonia; if it does not, it will be shown by the oats themselves by their light green or yellowish appearance, and this can be corrected in the spring by an application of about 100 pounds of nitrate of soda to the acre. The main thing to concern ourselves about now is the phosphoric acid and potash. Now, if we wish to obtain the best results, the proportions' of these in­ gredients should vary according to the texture of our soil; of course, no iron-clad rules can be laid down, but general experience has shown us that light, sandy soils are more deficient In potash than red clay soils; I would, therefore, recommend for light soils a fertilizer analyzing ten per cenL phos­ phoric acid, and ten per cent potash, made by combining 1600 pounds acid phosphate with 400 potinds muriate of potash to make a ton; for heavy clay soils a fertilizer analyzing about twelve per cent, phosphoric acid and five per cent potash, made by combining 1S00 pounds acid phosphate with 200 pounds, muriate of potash. This fertilizer applied at the rate of 300 or 400 pounds to the acre should insure a fine crop. You caii apply it broadcast after the. oats are plowed or worked In; or bet­ ter still, harrow it in about two weeks before planting.—Professor F. J. Mer- riam, Battle Hill, Ga. P. B. B.

During the South African War Rud- yard Kipling discovered at Cape Town a hospital without bandages and in desperate need of them. This, too, waa In a city where bandages w.ere for sale In many shops. He told an acquaintance that he was going to meet their want, and the gen­ tleman at once offered to pay for all the bandages that Mr. Kipling would buy and take to the hospital. A cart was quickly loaded, and then the author was informed that, under army rules, the hospital authorities could not receive supplies from a pri­ vate Individual. “Well,” said he, "I will dump the packages on the pavement before the door, and then tell them to come out and clean up the litter. Perhaps they can get them into the building in that way without tearing any red tape.” He drove off with the bandages, and the supplies were somehow smuggled into the hospital.

Toe Check Was Accepted Though the Cenuineaese of the Signature Was Doubted. New York, Special.—The taklug Cl evidence was begun in the trial of Al­ bert T. Patrick, a Iawyerj on an indict­ ment charging him with the niurder of William M. Rice, in this city, In Sep­ tember, J 900. John H. Wallace, paying teller at Swenson’s Bank, where had an account, identified a check for $25,000 payable to Albert T\ Patrick, as one that had been presented to him. It was the misspelling of tho name Albert that caused a telephone call' to Rice’s apartment ,which resulted in the discovery that Mt. Rice had died the previous day. Counsel for Patrick ob­jected to every question asked on this line on the ground that the witness could not testify to hoarse? evidence, but the recorder overruled the objec­ tions until Assistant District Attorney Garvin asked who answered the tela- • '•phone. He sustained the objection that Mr. Wallace could not tell who it was. < Wallace testified that he had never seen Patrick until the day the check was presented. So far as lie knew. Rice’s business was attended to by. Jones, the valet-seeretary. “In your opinion is the signature on the check the signature of Win. M. Rice?” asked the attorney for the pros­ ecution.Counsel for Patrick objected, but the witness was allowed to reply.“In my opinion,” he said, “it was not written by Mt.. Rice.”On cross-examination Wallace said that when the check was returned to the bank endorsed “Albert T. Patrick,” and “Albert T. Patrick” he stamped it “accepted,” although he had doubts as to the genuineness ot the signature. Finally he said: “I do not know whai Is wrong with the signature, but I don’t like it. It does not look natural to me. The final curve of the “M” for Instance, looks as If it was an after thought.”W. O. Weatherbee,. a clerk In the bank of Swenson & Son, said he knew Rice for 12 years. He was asked to tell of a visit alleged to have been made by Jones,, the valet-seeretary, to the wit­ ness home, in Brooklyn, but this was ruled out. Weatherbee said he had never seen Patrick, until the day the check was handed In at the bank. IIc had not known Patrick to be connected In any way with Rice’s business. When Patrick called at tfie bank, he saw Mr. Swensen. In the conversation that day Patrick said Rice’s .boiy was to be cre­ mated, as “the old gentleman was t crank on cremation.” Patrtck also said there had been an understanding be­ tween him and IRIce as to what was to be done witii^the proceeds of the checks. Weatheifee eaid it was his opinion that the^25.G00 check was aot signed by Wm. RUre. .. Counsel for Patrick objected to the admission of Ijiev $25,000 check as evi deEce, on the ground that the defend­ ant was under indictment for forging that chock and that it would not be fair to bias the minds of the jury by ad­ mitting it. — U T “This check is ohe of the steps by which I intend to prove, the conspiracy' between this deffcfidant and Jones,-’ said Mr. OsborpeeThe prosecution should not be al­ lowed to say that a murder was com­mitted because they think a check was forged,” said Mr. Moore, for Patrick.The recorder admitted the check. Under cross-examination Weatherbee said he was not an expert iu handwrit­ing and he could not analyze the sig­nature on the check. The doubt in his “mind waB more general than specified. The witness said lie did not decide the chock was not genuine when he first examined ft. This was before it was stamped “Accepted.” Mr. Weatherbee then testified that the check was accepted and certified, and that the certification was sanceJIc-d by Mr. Swenson after he had talked with somebody over the telephone.

A CRIMINAL ASSAULT C«nimitted on a White Woman Near Winston, 'Winston-Saiem, ' Special.—A young negro man, whose name has not been learned, committed a nainejess crime upon Mrs. Isaiah Lumley, aged 53 years, about 9 o’clock Wednesday morning, a few hundred yards south­ east from the Southern freight depot.

Mrs. Lumley'gave the following story regarding the as­ sault made upon her: Wednesday morning, as I went out in the woods there (pointing), to cut a few sticks'ot wood. While I was chopping on a small tree, a young ne­ gro man,' an entire stranger to me, stepped up and asked if I knew where a colored maft named Scales lived, I pointed out a house occupied by a family of that name. The negro, who Is of a dark ginger-ctfke color and had on a light; brownish suit and hat, then asked me to let him cut my wood. I told him I could cut-it. He then ran up and grabbed me around Ihe waist .I endeavored to strike him with' my axe, hot be jerked it out of my hands add threw it to one side. I. screamed on&e* or twice and he told me if I hollered again he would cut my d-A-d throat. He choked me until I became helpless, when he accom­plished his purpose.' It seemed to me that the assault lasted nearly half an hour. I tore his]'shirt collar and would have freely cut the negro’s throat it I had had a knife. I feel confident I would know the negro if I could see him. He is of medium size.” Mrs. Lumley stated that her husband had been in bad health for two years, adding that he was now confined to his bed. The officers have continued thei? search all day for the negro but have failed to locate him. Aycock Makes Proclamation.

Schroth Packing-QoSJhSifjr:- of this city. The story as first published, alleged a shortage of from $160,000 to 5400,000, extending over & period of twenty years, and claimed that Mr. Breemer had turned over all of his property and chatties in trust pending an examination of the books by ex­ perts. Braemer denied that there was any defalcation, but admitted that he had turned $72,000 In personal prop­ erty over to Harlan Cleveland, his at­ torney, and Jos. W. O1Kara, attorney for the Scbroth Company. Mr. Brae­ mer talked freely about the case. . Braemer is 45 years old and has been with the Schroths 27 years, most of the. time receiving $25 per week as book­ keeper and in recent years twice that amount as secretary and treasurer. Tho firm did a business of about a million dollars a year, which was handled by Braemer. When John Schroth died, more than a year ago, Lieutenant Gov­ ernor Nippert became the attorney of his heirs, who instituted an investiga­ tion of the company. This finally culmi­ nated in a meeting of all interested parties at which Braemer resigned and from which the sensational reports emanated. Harlan Cleveland, attorney for Bramer, and John W.; O’Hara,-at­ torney for ihu company, and also trus­ tees, are engaged with the experts in examining the books. The accountants insist that they cannot complete their work for two or three weeks and eoun- selvsay that no reliable statement can be PuadevIUiti! that time. Braemer "owns one of the finest resi­ dences in the city, and it is furnished with all that SrtvCan1Supptyre-In. Aipf sensational, reports that have been pub­ lished no reference is made to him as having any bad habits. The attorneys and other; interested persons will give nd assurance that the report of tlie expertson the examination of the books will be made public when com­pleted, as they state that every possible difference has already been adjusted satisfactorily by the property . that Braemer has turned over in trust. Braemer said that he had transferred to the trustees $72,000 in Standard Oil and Cincinnati Gas and Electric stocks. This, he said, would amply cover any" errors which might be found on the books. “I'll tell you the truth of the matter,” said Braemer, “The 'old man’ and I have been fighting for about six months- and I concluded to quit and I resigned Sunday. Some errors had been discovered in the books and it was mutually agreed to have an expert go over them. In order to indemnity the company, Attorneys Cleveland and O’Hara were appointed as trustees of my estate and I turned over to them $72,000 in stocks. If any shortage is found I am to blame. The salary was $50 a week and had been for the past ten years. I owned 515,000 worth oi stock in the company. I wish to say if there is any shortage I know nothing of it.” Tiiiman In a Debate.

The line which has so disarranged the calculations, for the success of the scheme was believed to be practically, assured, Is campara- tively unimportant and plies between London and the United StatesvThe extent to which the proposed combination had attained can be judg­ ed from the fact that the fifteen with­drawals do not constitute 50 per emit, or the firms interested. A representa­ tive of one df the.lines most intimately concerned said that it looked vetY much as if the whole plan: would fall through, though he admitted that strenuous efforts would be made to pee- atiade the backsliders to come In again, and leave the unimportant exception to fight its own battle.'The reports of a financial amalgama­tion’ between- the White Star, Ameri- canVAtlantic.Transport and other lines are strenuously denied.

'A stoiy-writer who catered to ths fcoyu of fifteen or twenty years ago built up many thrilling'tales about a mechanical contrivance" in the form of a man. Such a machine—"Hercules, the Iron Man”—was actually on exhi­ bition last summer at a Cleveland park, and the Leader tells of one of the walks he took. Hercules is eight feet high, and when the oil fire inside him is lighted and steam is generated, he walks about, pushing a sort of iron­ wheeled cart. He wears a tall hat and a hideous grin, and puffs exhaust steam through his nostrils. Late one night some of the campers at the park lighted the fire in Hercules after the resort was closed and the owner of the figure had gone away. The valve had been left opesi when the fire was put out, and when steam was gener­ ated again tlie man began to walk about the park. For a little while he surpassed Frf.iikenstein’s monster. No one knew how to stop him, and lie walked all over the park, through the shallow lake, over the tents of the campers and the side-show tents. Sleepers In Uis path had ts be awak­ ened to ,get them out of the way, for it was Impossible to control the steam man’s movements. Inequalities in the ground, trees and other obstructions turned him aside, but did not stop him. He terrorized the park for an hour, but, like -many a human being, came to grief at the bar. He marched tip to it and knocked it over. Hercules fell with the bar and alighted on his head Ca the other side. He stood there on his head, kicking his feet In tlie air, until his steam went down.—Youth’s Companion. J. S.

T he. requisite knowledge of what a laxative should be and of'the best means for its production enable the California Fig Syrup..Go. to supply the general demand for a laxative, simple and wholesome in its nature and truly beneficial in its effects; a laxative which acts pleasantly and leaves the internal organs m e , naturally healthy condition and which does not weaken them. To assist nature, when natiire seeds assistance, it is all important that the medicinal agentsused should be of the best quality and of known value and Syrup of Figs possesses this great advantage over nil other remedies, that it does not weaken the organs on which it acts and thereiore- .it promotes a healthful con­ dition of the bowels and assists one in forming regular habits. Among its many excellent qualities' may be mentioned its perfect safety, in all cases requiring a laxative, even for the babe, or its mother, the maiden, or the wife, the invalid, . or the robust man. • ' Syrup of Figs is well knswn to be a combination of the laxative principles of plants, which act most beneficially, with pleasant aromatic liquids and the juice of figs, agreeable and refreshing to the taste and acceptable to the system, when its gentle cleansing is desired.' The quality of SyrupofFigs is due" not • only to the excellence of the combination* but also to the original method.of manufacture which ensures perfect purity and uniTormi'ty of product and .it is therefore all important, in buying, in order to get its beneficial effects, to note the full name of the Company—California Fig Syrup Co.—printed on the front of every package.

Cassell, and tbe graduate students In zoology made a complete examination Df the alimentary canal, lungs, kidneys, and circulatory system. The lungs and kidneys showed no sign ol disease. In the Icrt auricle of the heart was found a large yellowish-white sub­ stance which ha3 been identified by Dr. A. J. Lacier as an “ante-mortem clot.” The clot is about four inches in length* and was undoubtedly th? cause of stopping the circulation. From the fact that the 'sea lion lost to the park two years ago died from a similar clot, it may be inferred that the en­ forced sluggishness of the animals in captivity may faror the growth of fungus and the formation of clots in the heart and blood vessels.—Balti* more Sun. > AU goods are aiiko to PtrxaMU Padblsss P ycs, os they color all libers at one botiiog.

I believe you will be pleased to know that Lydia E. Pinkhamte V egetable C om pound has curcd more women than any other agency that has come under my notice. H undreds of women owe their life and health to you to-day, and, there­ fore, I can conscientiously advise sick women to try it.”— M argueritb S t.

When women are troubled with irregular or gainful menstruation, weakness, leucprrhcea, displacement or ulceration oi the womb, that bear­ ing-down feeling, inflammation of the ovaries, backache, fiatulenca, general debility, indigestion, and nervous prostration,-they should remember there is one tried and true remedy. Lydia E. Pinkliam’s Vegetable Compound at once removes such troubles. No other medicine in the world has received such widespread and. unqualified endorsement. No other medicine has such a record of cures of female troubles. Refuse to buy any other medicine. Mrs. PlnIiIiam invit«s all sick women to write her for advico. She haa guided thousands to health.

All kinds of cures for rheumatism, from baking to. vibration, are now be­ ing exploited. This disease, judging from the amount of space devoted to it in the public prints, is getting to be more and more a common complaint. "Tip" geems to fairly revel In new and wierd cures for the affliction, and the patent medicine advertisements set forth a tempting list of remedies. Probahiy the reason that people with rheumatism did not talk so much about it in the old days was fdr fear the doctor would be called in. One has only to look over an.old medical book to realize that a visit from a doc­ tor a hundred years a go was no Joke. Here is a book on “The .Practice of Physic,” printed In Edinburgh in 1784 —a hundred and seventeen' years ago. It is written by the foremost doctor of his time, William Cullen, professor in the University of Edinburgh, “First Physician to His Majesty In Scotland,” and member of all the learned" socie­ ties. In its day "Cullen’s First lines” was the greatest medical text book in the English language. Kow this is what Dr. Cullen would have done to “Tip,* or any other seeker after a cure for rheumatism. The learned doctor says: '“The cure requires in the first place an antiphlogistic (inflammation-; checking) regime,' and particularly a total abstinence from animal Jbod and from all fermented or spirituous liquors; substituting a vegetable or milk diet. BIood-Ietting Is the chief remedy In acute rheumatism. The blood ought to be drawn in large quan­ tity and the bleeding to be repeated In proportion to the frequency,, fullness and hardness of the pulse, and the vio­ lence of the pain. For tho most part large and repeated bleedings during the first days of the disease seem to ba n9ccssary." In addition to these gen­ eral bleedings the doctor recommends local bleedings wherever there appears any "swelling or redness.”—New York Press. •*. Exceptional measures are to ; Ic taken In connection with' the restora- tioa of Leonardo da Vinci's “Ijast Supper,” whifeh the Italian Govern­ment has at length decided to carty out. The.'pieture is in. such a bad condition that the work will have to he done in the most, careful and scientific manner. A celebrated • ex­pert haB been engaged to give his services.
