LOCAL NOTESAND TOBACCO
JOTTINGS
BY O. L. JOYNER.
There will be quite a number of
totacco buyers on this market
during the coming seasou that
were uever kere before.
~Tobacco asa general thing 1s
looking very weil ail over the
county but on un average it is
the latest crop that we eyer had
since 1890. Look out farmers for
the August worms.
Judging from the numbers of
tobaccu flues that have been car-
ried out this summer one wouid
conclude that there is a very large
increase in tobacco acreage iu
this cvouoty. ~Tnere is a consid:
erable increase, it is true,
remember it has nuw beeu five
years siuce most of our farmers
put io their flues, aud by this
time they ace prevty bai off for
the wear aud a» good many who
are buying flues this season are
replacing their old ones.
Last Friday morning we went
over to Bethel, spent the furenoon
with Mr. Z-D. MeWaorter, and
ia the afternoon with him and
Rev. Mr. Forbes waiked over to
Mr. M,C. S. CherryTs. We found
Mr. Cherry confined to his room,
the resuit of an atteck of the L
Grippe, two or three years ago.
Mr. Cherry says ne has been con-
fined almost entirely to his room
since January aud his health is
very feeble indeed, bat his mind

There wastnot a very
tendance but just enough for all
discussed was the country roads
leading to Greenville. Some one
suggested that the people of
Greene county whe had to bring
their tobacco to market over the
AdamsT bridge were very anxious
to have it repired. O. L Joyner
siated that he bad gone before
the County Commissioners at
their last meeting and was in-
formed by them that the last
Legislature moved the county
line making the creek on which
the AdamsT bridge is buil: the
line. between Pitt ana Greene
counties, and they,the Pits county
Com missiouers, would not repair
the bridge now unless the County
Commissioners of Greene, would
help. Mr. W A. Darden stated
that the bridge was all right but
the butment on the Greene side
was in such condition that a load
could not be pulled over it and
that Mr. J. W. Dixon who was
overseer of the road would in a
few days repair that part of it.
Mr. G@. T. Tysou said that the
right step 1n the right direction
had neyer beed taken, and if the

Papers and Towns,
In noting the change in the
Landmark froma weekly to a
semi-weekly, the Marion /ecord
kindly says:
It is gratifying to note this step
3 forward in this most excellent pa-
per. The people of Statesville
knew a good thing when they see
it, consequently they have stood
- by the Landmark, which has en-
abled it to do more for the town
than any other business enter-
prise in that thriving little city.
A town is judged by the appear-
ance ofits local paper, which 1s
always atrue index ofthe town
from which it is published.
Asif in confirmation of the ar.
gument here made, the Green-
_ ville REFLECTOR, with eqral kind-,
ness says -
We heard a distinguished citi-
zen of Statesville say that he was
jnduced to make his home there
through reading copies of the
Landmark that chanced to fall
jnto his hands, his impression be-
ing that a town sending out such
a paper asthe Zannmark wouid
be a good place t live in. This
13 just one illustration among
many similar ones that have oc-
curred. It isthe home paper that
talks for the town, and tosee the
business men standing by it shows
that they have confidence in their
town and believe in maintaining
home enterprises.
There is eound sense in the
propositions here advanced. An
-evil tree cannot briag fourth good
= fruit and it is eqdally impossible
for a dead or dying town to hold
alive and first-class newspaper.
If, as has been generously said by
many papers and people the
_* Landmark has attained to ade-
good word said of tne Landmark
for the paper is what the town bas|she
gree of excellence above the av-
erage, aud has been able to exert
@ helpful inflaence in behalf of its
town, it is because the town, un
mindfal of political or personal
differences, has given the paper a
united and generous support:
fainess which it could not hav
exerted otherwise. Thus, every

Mr: Eptror:"I notice in this
weekTs Democrat that Dr. Dodge,
of Hamilton, Ill, gives a recipe
for hog cholera ; and, while I do
not doubt its efficacy, the follow
ing is much cheaper, and equally
potent: Take enough Doy fen-
nel blossoms (known in some sec-
tions as owild chamomile�) to
make a strong tea, and give them
"say one cup full"(in slop or
otherwise), two or three times a
week during the cholera season.
It is equally potent as a prevent-
ative of chicken cholera, by put.
ting the blooms in their water
trough.
It is also an excellent remedy
for man, with lung trouble. Take
an ordinary handfull of the blos"

He Spends a Great Deal of Money witb
His Tailors But Much of It Is for
Uniforms, of Which He
Has Many.
In a chatty article on the prince of
Wales and his clothes, a writer in
a matter of fact the ~~First Gentle-
man in Europe� does spend a great
deal of money with his tailors. It
should be remembered, nevertheless,
that much of this is for uniforms.
The prince is popularly supposed to
ess seventy military uniforms,
and this is about accurate.
When we remember that a cavalry
outfit may cost £150 as a low esti-
mate, and that subalterns entering
a line regiment rarely begin witha
lower disbursement than £50 or £60,
the amount that the princeTs uni-
forms has cost him is easily to be
gauged.
The prince, of course, possesses,
for the most part, colonelTs uniforms,
but as afield marshal he is compelled
often to renew the terribly expen-
sive outfit suited to that rank,
and it is in this fine tunic that
he appears at most military ceremo-
nials and at royal weddings, or other
great occasions of state. In addi-
tion, he possesses many naval uni-
forms and the dress of a large num-
ber of German, Russian and Austrian
regiments.
Putting aside the question of uni-
forms, upon which his royal high-
ness cannot spend less than threeor
four hundred pounds a year, we
come to his ordinary dress. It is
admitted universally that very few
men in town manage things with
more taste or have a quicker eye for
good cloth. There are youths, no
doubt, whose tailorsT bills are far
larger than the princeTs, for he is by
no means extravagant, although
exceedingly particular about his
clothes. ;
Nor does he, says the writer, pay
absurdly fancy prices, as many peo-
rate of a west end house. This
meeos that a frock coat may cost
him twelve guineas, which most peo-
ple would regard as very ~~fancy�
indeed; a dress suit somewhere
about fifteen, trousers four guineas,
and an ordinary ~~ditto� suit from
eight to ten guineas.
When in town the frock coat is in-
variably worn by the prince. No
doubt during the London season be
consumes a large number of these
articles"perhaps
which one will be a light gray.
And it is a habit of his never to
\wear @. coat two seasons running,
even if it has been used only two or
|three times by him. As he is in
~| town perhaps six months in the year,
CassellTs Saturday Journal says: As
ple suppose, being charged the usual!)
two a month, of}
his total of ~~irocksT� may be set
down roughly at twelve.
in dress suits he is sapposed to be
particularly extravagant, but this
is not really the case. Any man
about town has five or six dress
suits a year. The prince may have
a dozen, but the story told in a ~con-
temporary recently that he had one
a@ week is pure nonsense.
When the prince is going to New-
market he often wears a o~ditto� suit
with light covertoverit. In ~~ditto�
suits, perhaps, his total would as-
tonish the humble man who pays his
tailor £30 a year and considers that
heavy.
It is certain that he never wears
one of these suits more than two_or
three times, and his stock of them
is tremendous. Of shooting suits
for the autumn he bas an immense
variety, using a different style of
dress for battue work to that adopt-
ed for ordinary work with the dogs.
Here alone for a country dress he
can scarcely spend less than a hun-
dred pounds a year.
In the matter of hats, it is a well-
known fact that the prince has three
a fortnight, also buying a large
number of bowler and square black
hats for country use.
At Sandringham there is a hat-
room with aman whose chief duty
it is to keep the prince's ~~tiles� ina
high condition of polish. In the
same palace a number of vast ward-
robes contain the bulk of the uni-
forms and clothes which are not in
regular use.
Those large scarfs which are now
worn with a frock coat often cost
half a guinea. There are scores of
up-to-date youths who have fifty
pairs of gloves per annum; three
dozen shirts would be regarded as an
absolute minimum. So far as the
prince is concerned, he never wears:
a pair of gloves twice, and in this,
and in the matter of boots, he is un-
questionably the best dressed man
in the kingdom.

At the opening of Court in Lex:
ington this morning the jary in
the case of the State against
Sbemwell forthe ma:der of Dr.
Payne brought ina verdict of not
guilty.
We had expected from the evi-
flonce as reported in the papers
hat not even a jurv could stifle
their consciences soas to bring in
a,verdict of less guilty than murder
in the second degree. and only
this from the fact, which they
might infer, that he committed
the deed in a passion, not having
cooled off from the previous troub-
~es.
Just such verdicts as this do
more to encourage lynching than
allof the spimt of lawlessness
which exists even in the most de-
praved.
