WHY MEN DO NOT MARRY.
It a statistical fact that a great
many of our young men do not marry
although one of our fairest women
writers baa young girls
were never more beautiful, more
nor more fascinating than
our young men do not marry.
Let us go below the surface and
see if we can find a cause this
state affairs. This is truly a
age. You will find, upon a
careful investigation, that, with a
few exceptions, all greatest men,
including statesmen, orators, actors,
divines, authors and artists started
in life poor and achieved eminence
and fame by their own exertions.
It is also true that but few of our
young they alone by
dent of birth or
support themselves or a ex-
h . their own labor.
Let us far an example a
young man endowed by nature with
a strong, robust constitution, high-
toned, honorable, and upright in all
dealings With his fellow-man,
and whose moral character is with-
out a blemish.
Let us suppose that he has, by his
own unaided efforts, accumulated
enough this world's goods to
chase a modest little and to
live in moderate comfort. Ho looks
around to find a woman who will be-
come, not only his companion, but a
partner in his home and in his in-

confronted with the stubborn yet
deniable fact that the girl to whom
he would offer the love of an honest,
loyal heart, as well as tho

for one season than the entire amount
of his annual income. a sigh,
perhaps, ho smothers the natural

The committee appointed by
the Grand Lodge I. O. O. F. to
select a site for their orphanage
met in Raleigh last week and con-
the several offers made by
the different towns and cities.
They selected Goldsboro as the
place of location. We are glad to
sea such an interest taken in
orphanage work for tho last few
years. Home ten years ago there
was only one in North Carolina,
the Masonic at Oxford. Now in
addition to that the Baptists have
one, the Episcopalians one. The
Odd Fellows are establishing one,
and we predict that ere long the
and the Presbyterians
establish one. This is
one of most important works in
which any can engage. One
feature all these orphanages is
that while they are under the
management of different
nations and societies they are not
exclusively for the children of the
of those denominations
societies, but are open for the
of all. Goldsboro do-

For several weeks people of
Greenville have been looking forward
with bright anticipations to the An-
Art Reception which was given
by Miss Mollie Rouse in the Opera
House on last Friday evening.

more pleasure than realization, but
upon this occasion the maxim may
be reversed, for every one whose good
fortune it to be present enjoyed

those had been anticipating so

anticipation had passed into
Soon after dark the visitors began
to assemble from town and
country, and before o'clock the
Opera House was almost filled to its
seating capacity, and in face of
every one could be seen an
of delight as they beheld with
intense admiration the elegant dis-
play various kinds of paintings so
artistically arranged under the
of the accomplished instructor,
Miss Rouse. Every piece of paints
on exhibition was the work of
either Miss Rouse or her pupils.

people who gaze upon the

material protection guards them from
and predatory pans, save
that a watch is kept, as a matter of
by persons in charge. Gold
and silver by the hundredweight are
there exposed to view, while the in-
and historical value of the ex-
mounts up into tho millions. Yet
all is open, with only thin sheets of
crystal between the avaricious visitor
and the precious property of the
American people.

wait, and when he is perfectly
certain the guard is not looking, lay

the building, and from all sides the at-
flock to the rescue. The thief
learns, too late profitable
that each copper, silver or gold
piece in every case has a separate at-
to the burglar alarm in tho
building. The accessibility of the costly
objects is only apparent; the entire

Receipts of the Brooklyn
The revenue of the Brooklyn bridge
amounts to a million and a quarter
a year, derived almost exclusively
from fares. The other items of revenue
during 1890 were from rentals
and from telegraph and
phone companies. The lightest month
in the year for business on tho bridge
is York Sun.

Properties of
Precious stones were
posed to possess peculiar virtues, which,
apart from any other ions,
rendered them more or less valuable.
The reputed virtues of some were of a
most miraculous nature, and happy in-
deed the fortunate possessors of these
gems ought to have been.
Although popularly supposed to be
itself poison, the diamond baa
from-remote ages been credited with
the power of protecting the wearer
from the evil effects of other poisons, a
reputation which it retained until com-
recent times. According to
Pliny it also keeps off insanity. Am-
too, was supposed to possess the
latter virtue.
Besides the diamond, several other
stones supposed to possess medic-
virtues. The ruby was considered
good for derangements of the liver as
well as for bad eyes. The sapphire and
emerald were also credited with prop-
which rendered them capable of
influencing disorders, and
