Foot Ball Must Scarce-

It is a startling fact that during
the season of 1892 in
England twenty-six men
killed outright and numbers of
others received injuries for life
while playing the game, and the
records show that only two men
were by prize ring
If these facts prove any-
thing they show that foot ball is
a thousand per cent, more
and fatal than
fighting. The question that
suggests itself to my mind
is, will honest Christian men at
the head of alleged Christian
colleges and schools, encourage
a game, whoso results
are a thousand per cent, more
fatal than the results of a practice
condemn In the
face of these facts it is gratifying
i to note that our three greatest
Universities, Harvard, Yale, and
Princeton have become aware
that there are other fields as well
i worthy of their attention as this
i slightly modified form of
fighting. A schedule of
debates has been arranged,
to consist of three contests, one
at each college, in order that the
students from each of the colleges
will take part in the contest with
men from both of the others. I
think such a course
but to say the least of foot-ball,
it is not conducive to refinement
or good morals to the young men
who practice it, and colleges
such diversions are gen-
more successful in sending

A POWERFUL TEMPERANCE
SERMON.
Extract From Address in
the Baptist Church on
day.
I was in Para, in South America,
standing on the banks of the
Amazon river to embark on a
voyage- I noticed a large, long
box and on what it con-
was told that it was a
python, a snake of the boa con-
species. It was probably
feet long. For weeks I was
on the vessel with that reptile
but was not afraid of it because I
knew it was confined. A
ion on the vessel who knew all
the habits of the snake told me
that noiselessly and slowly it
its victim and without
a moment's warning it would
throw its coil around him and coil
by coil encircled him in an em-
brace which was certain death-
Without outside aid any one was
absolutely powerless in its folds-
Friends and brethren, the great-
est evil in this country to day is
the drink habit- It comes upon
a man secretly, noiselessly, surely
like that venomous snake and
when once a man because its
slave he is, I believe, powerless to
break it off without outside help.
I thank God that science has
brought that help. I bless God
that there is a Gold Institute
here in Greenville which is saving
men every day from monster,
strong drink. I believe it is the
duty of all good men and women
to encourage it and lend a helping
hand.
THE A. M. E. ZION CONFERENCE.
The thirtieth annual session of
the North Carolina Conference,

A. M-, D- D. These alternated
from day today in presiding over
the deliberations of the body.
The Conference was called to
order by Bishop Harris and the
organization completed by elect-
Rev. W. J. T- Moore,
Rev. H- P- Walker, Assist-
ant Secretary; Rev- W. J. Solo
Statistician; Rev. Owen L
W. Smith, Corresponding Editor
and Reporter.
Eighty five ministers were in
attendance upon the conference,
there being quite a number of
very intelligent men among them.
The conference embraces a
of about and re-
ports from the Presiding Elders
of the several districts showed
considerable increase for the year-
The report of finances, owing to
the general depression showed a
falling off from the figures of last
year.
All the Presiding Elders and
ministers passed creditable ex-
of character, and from
every district and a large majority
of the stations were petitions
that they be returned to the same
charges for the next year.
On Friday Rev. G- F Smith,
pastor of the M. E- Church, visit-
ed the conference and was intro-
to the body. Saturday ex-
T. J. Jarvis visited the
conference and was introduced
by the Bishop to the body. Gov-
Jarvis addressed the Con-
in his usual earnest and
impressive manner, referring to
early training and ex-
in the home circle- He
stated that one of the most
preachers he ever heard
was the late Dr. J. C Price. The
Governor the hope
he may see the day when every
colored man shall own his home.
At the conclusion of his remarks
the Hon- J- C Dancy was called
upon to respond in behalf of the
Conference- The Conference
tendered a vote of thanks to both
speakers.
Services were held in the Opera
House Sunday
and night, leading members of the
Conference preaching good
mons. The afternoon was
pied in memorial services to the
late Rev. L. R. Ferebee and Rev.
J. C. Price, D. D., late President
of Livingstone College at
The large hall was thronged,
many white people being in the
seats reserved for them. Bishop
Harris introduced Rt. Rev. C- C
who delivered the sermon
of the occasion. His text was a
portion of John XIV, go to
prepare a place for Any
man of any race might have felt
a just pride over the delivery of
such a sermon. The entire thought
of was grand, and many of the
speaker's Sights of eloquence were
beautiful. He was listened to
with closest attention from every
one- Following the sermon the
Hon. J. C. Dancy introduced res-
and made a
address- Brief addresses
were also made by Rev. G- W-
Clinton, editor of the Star of Zion,
by Prof. G- L. Black well, Dean of
the Theological department of
Livingstone College, and by Rev.
R S- Rives, D. D., principal of
the State Normal School at Golds-
The addresses were all
good and would have done credit
to any assembly.
The sessions of the Conference
continued until noon yesterday.
Rev. P. W. Williams, pastor of the
church here, labored hard in prep-
for it, and has looked well
after the comfort and pleasure of
the delegates. It was a
gathering of colored people
and did credit to the race- We
trust the meeting here will leave
a lasting impression for good with
the colored people of this
and in them higher and
more noble purposes in life-

members of the committee expect-
ed, and very much less than
existed among Republicans after
the publication of the
bill- The fact is generally
by Democrats that the
son bill is one that will in the
end be generally beneficial to the
entire country, although like
most great reforms it will
carry temporary hardship
to some individuals, and that is
really where the great strength
of the bill lies; it is a tariff bill
for the many, not for the few.
The Democrats who framed it
are true believers in the doctrine
of the greatest good to the great-
est number. The Republicans
who in disparagement of the bill
said it was built the lines of
the Walker tariff of 1846,
hardly have given the bill great-
praise, as the Walker tariff was
one of the best the country ever
had, and the people of all classes
were never more prosperous than
while it was in existence.
President Cleveland has con-
the Democrats of the
Ways and Means committee
the statesmanlike manner in which
they prepared the tariff bill, in
several instances members voting
to put articles on the free list,
such as iron ore, coal and silver
lead ore, that their constituents
would have preferred having
kept on the dutiable list and in
his message to Congress he will
officially commend their work
and urge that this bill be speedily
passed.
The Democrats of the commit-
tee on Ways and Means are now
at work the internal re
bill which is to furnish the
revenue that will be lost by re-
forming the tariff. It is
that this loss will be some-
where between and
a year. The Demo-
of the committee have but
one thought in preparing this
bill, and that is, to impose the
taxes in such a manner that they
will bear the lightest upon those
who have to work for their living
and as they are all men of wide
experience and great ability they
will doubtless report a
bill.
Postmaster General has
not announced whether he con-
it proper and advisable to
accept the bid submitted by the
Bureau of Engraving and Print-
for printing the postage
stamps that will be required next
year, but the other fellows are
getting frightened and are filling
such of the local papers as are
open to such subsidized matter
so-called arguments against the
government printing its own
postage stamps. These
which are but a repetition
of those brought forward
the people begun to the
question of the government
printing its own by the
agents the various bank note
companies which had grown
rich by printing government
currency. They are simply ab-
surd, and if there are no legal
obstacles it is probable that Gen.
will accept the bid of the
Bureau of Printing and
which is below that
of the lowest private bidder.
Even if the work could not be
done any cheaper it is more fitting
that the postage stamps should
be printed by the government.
The peremptory removal of Mr.
George D. Johnson, of Louisiana,
the only Democratic member of
the Service Commissions
by President Cleveland was
surprising and has been the basis
of no gossip. No official
reason has been out for
the removal and it is not at all
probable that any will be given
out, but it comes from good
that the cause of Mr.
Johnson's removal was not dis-
creditable to him, as a man or
as a Democrat, fie will be
by Prof. J. R Proctor, of
Kentucky, and Commissioner
Lyman whose removal has been,
I am told, fully determined upon,
by a Democrat. There is ample
cause for Lyman's removal, in the
report Of a congressional commit-
tee to President Harrison, and
he probably owes his retention
in office this long, as many other
Republicans do, to the fact that
President Cleveland has been
constantly overwhelmed with
more important duties than the
selection of successors to minor
officials- But unless all signs are
misleading, the most of the Re-
publicans will go before the
flowers bloom again.

Broke Jail
There was another wholesale Jail de-
livery Sunday night, the second that has
occurred within a year. At time
six prisoners escaped. Five colored men
who were la one of the lower
iron cages cut their way out of It by
eight of the heavy bars, half an
inch making an opening ten Inches
square. The bars were cut smooth
the appearance of a saw being used
on them. After crawling through this
opening into the corridor, they dug
the wall Into the passage, broke
the lock off the front door and walked
away. A woman confined in the
crawled through the brick wall and
escaped with them. It is very evident
that the prisoners had been furnished
by some one outside with good tools to
d such an expert job. This delivery
further argues the necessity of having a
wall around the Jail so that no outsider
can reach the windows, and of allowing
no one to communicate with the prison-
unless accompanied by an officer.
When built, this new jail was thought
absolutely safe, but escapes from it are
more frequent than from the old one.
The County Commissioners should take
some steps to prevent this, and we
think the best way is to build a high
brick or stone wall around the jail.
Sheriff King is doing all possible to
capture the fugitives and hopes to be
successful in so doing. A brief
of the men who escaped is as
William Hardy, years old, weight
pounds, height feet inches, black,
rime, larceny.
Redmond Braddy, years,
pounds, height feet inches, spare
built, ginger cake color, crime, bigamy.
Henry Scott, small mulatto, years
old, weight pounds, height feet
inches, hair crime larceny.
Mark Patrick, years old, weight
pounds, height feet inches, large
mouth, black, crime larceny.
Henry Smith, IS years old, weight
pounds, height feet inches, dark
ginger cake color, crime larceny.
The Sheriff will pay a liberal reward
for their apprehension.

THANKSGIVING DAY.
Services at Baptist

Thanksgiving Day dawned clear upon
as and was received with good cheer by
all the Inhabitants of Every
place of business was closed and It look-
ed like Sunday. Sportsmen could be
seen hieing themselves away to th
woods to bring back the game that in-
fest all about us. We hear numerous
reports as to the success of some of
them. We asked one little fellow what
luck he had and he made answer that
he killed one sparrow, but he couldn't
find him. A party the river saw a
handsome deer swimming down stream
and gave chase but his deer ship was too
spry for them and got away. Another
party returned and showed
bits and partridges. Taken as a
whole it was a successful day all round
for them.

FOOT BALL CAME.
For some weeks the talk of the town
had been foot-ball. The Academy
team challenged town boys for a
game of ball and town boys accepted and
set time for Thanksgiving afternoon
at o'clock. At the time appointed
the two teams met in the enclosure just
this side of Mr. O. E.
and the fun began. Mr. S. T.
Hooker was umpire. They were to
play the best six out of eleven. The
first three heats were won by the
my team, the town boys fought
hard but they could not keep the
team from making the pig skin fly
and crossing the line. The fourth was
won the town boys, also the fifth.
Then barred from
town boys and the Academy team made
the sixth, seventh ad eighth, running
their score up to six and winning the
game. It was fun, and good fun, every-
body enjoyed It. There was no fussing
or kicking except at the ball, and every-
body was in a jolly good humor.
AFTER THE GAME.
That shirt cost me a dollar and a half
that Brose Johnson tore the back of.
There is only one thing I didn't like,
says Ambrose Johnson, Henry Hooker
took my nose for the ball and wouldn't
let It go.
Will Blow took a pretty fall, but I
wouldn't mind that much. If he bad not
stepped on my corn, says Louis Skinner.
Bronson will know better next
time than to try to make a bed of me,
says Will as he got up
from on the other side of the fence
where he and Bronson went over
in a knot.
Harry Harding says he believes the
fence Is a little harder than his head.
Clarence says if he can't
kick with his right foot he can with his
left.
Louis Lawrence says that thirteen
boys on him weigh more than a feather.
AT THE HOUSE.
The Greenville Amateurs presented
the comedy entitled, A Pretty Piece of

Some complaint was heard as to the
length of the pi and the lightness of
the plot.

Sheep in South Carolina.
I have always been convinced
that culture aid never
flourish in the South unless the
raising of stock should be com-
with the making of cotton
and corn, and have, therefore,
watched the raising of sheep with
interest I have never known an
instance where great profit did
not result from sheep raising when
protected from depredations of
dogs and in rare case, of thieve-
In February, 1866- I-
brought a flock of poor sheep.
The shearing of that year he
gave to his neighbors. In Nov-
ember, 1872, his flock amounted
to head, having brought no
other sheep, except a few South-
down bucks.
In the meantime he had sold
worth of wool and worth
of mutton, and had lived on
ton. Not having had a chicken
or a pig on his place. With the
sheep he had enriched thirty
acres of land that would hardly
sprout peas, so that it would make
one thousands pounds of cotton
to the acre The only feed ever
given was a little cotton seed for
a few weeks in the winter. Then
he divided his flock, giving one
hundred and seventy five head to
a friend in another county to raise
on shares.
Since then his clover and ti-
and fields made by
means of his sheep and herd of
thoroughbred cattle
have made his plantation resemble

Another Frog and Snake Story.
Some time ago The Landmark
printed a story about a frog taking
a stick in its mouth to prevent a
snake swallowing it; and later
Mr. Hal. Fetter's story about a
partridge holding a leaf over
body to hide itself from a hawk.
A gentleman recently related to
us another frog-snake story
equally as good if not better than
either of those referred to which
is vouched for by Mr W. A.
Myers, of Wilkes
who, if we remember
aright, an eye witness of
the occurrence.
The frog in this instance was a
bull-frog and not a toad-frog. A
black snake, looking for his din-
had seized the frog by the
hind-leg and attempted to swallow
it. The frog seized hold of a
bamboo brier with its mouth and
held on like grim death while the
the tugged at its
ties. The snake wrapped his
tail around a convenient shrub to
give himself more purchase and
back to his work with a will
but it was to go. The frog held
on to the bamboo brier and as
the snake could not pull him loose
he finally gave it up as a bad job
and retired from the
ville Landmark.

the young painter, who was then
poor and unknown, and had a pen

This generous act proved the fortune

Greenville, N C-
Mr. Hans A. Kure, after the
great August hurricane, found a
box unearthed on the seashore at
Carolina Beach, containing the
remains of a soldier and his gun
and sword. The latter was strap-
on the box and the gun was
on the inside, but it had all de-
and nothing was left of it
but the breech from hammer
down. One of the hammers is
in good and was
standing as if ready to
be fired. The only thing remain-
of the soldier was a few bones,
all the clothing having long since
gone to nothing. His shoes are
however, in very good
and they were preserved by
Mr. along with the other
queer relics. The shoes were very
small and narrow.
It is believed that the remains
are those of a Confederate officer,
and Mr- Kure thinks they came
ashore from the wreck of the old
blockade runner Beauregard,
which was beached near Carolina
Beach during the civil war- It is
possible though that the remains
were the body of a Federal

Mr. Simms, of Durham, who is

ton, has the right idea,
to our Washington correspondent,
about the pension business,
though he doesn't go quite far
enough. He proposes that North
Carolina offer the government a
site and building materials for a
home for the pensioners, and that
all of them who are willing to en-
it be received as inmates.
The defect the proposition
is this that the matter of enter-
the home is left optional with
the pensioner. He should be
compelled to enter it or accept as
the alternative the discontinuance
of his pension. It has been
by some one that it would
less expensive to board the
pensioners at hotels then to con-
to support them on the
present basis, but the plan pro-
posed by Mr. Simms, with the
amendment we offer, is a manifest
upon the hotel
scheme. The cost would be less
and, locating them all in one en-
closure, their social advantages

How a Sick Man Voted in Virginia.
Mr. P. A- Baylor, a member of
Staunton bar, has for some
time been an invalid confined to
his room. His residence is just
across the street from the second
ward voting engine-
house. Too feeble to go to the
polls, a novel plan was adopted for
receiving his vote. A double
string was run from his
across to the poll. His
ballot was put on it
and drawn slowly across the street-
When it arrived at the box the
judge of election took it off and
put it inside- Both the invalid
voter and the election judge were
in sight of each other from the
starting of the ballot until it was
