After Fees.
Tho ~Vimes is a great advocate in
haying the laws of the land executed,
and believes that some have beer
violated and the violators allowed to ¢0
at large, without any notice being
taken of them by the eflicers, but it
does seem that there are a great many
frivolous indiciments taken into the
courts for no other purpose than for
officers to secure fees. Some of our
Solicitors and other otlicars, who are
supported by fee?, no doubt, ercoutl-
&
aze this drag net business, and strange
to say, even some of the Judges on the
bench are lending their aid in the
matter. Asan instance of 1 our ai-
tention bas been called to a recen
term of court in Durham where, under
the charge of the Judge, tovether with
the eaverness of the officers to secure
fees, a large number of good citizens
who unthoughtedly took a chance ia a
raffle, have been Lauled up before the
court and ojudgment suspended or
payment of costs.�
We do not wish to be uzderstood 48
advocating the orattle? or any other
~came of cuance,� but there are a
great many people that occasionally
take chances at little games wno are
entirely innocent of any intenion to
wiolate the law.
The end of

wy SCHOOLROOM.
[ have closed my books and hidden my slate
And thrown my satchel across the gate,
My school is out for a season of rest,
And now for the schoolroom I love the best.
My schoolroom lics on the meadow wide,
Where under the clover the sunbeams hide,
Where the long vines cling to the mossy bars
And the daisies twinkle like fallen stars,
3 gild the scene
Where clusters of buttercup
4hrown over the
Like showers of gold dust
green,
And the wind's flying footsteps are traced, as
they pass,
By the dance of the sorreland dip of the grass.
My lessons are written in clouds and trees,
And no one whispers except thd breeze,
Who sometimes blows from a secret place
A stray, swect blossom against my face.
My school bell rings in the rippling stream,
Which hides itself, like a schoolboy's dream,
Under the shadow and out of sight,
But laughing still for its own delight.
My schoolmates there are the birds and bees
And the saucy squirrel, more dull than these,
For he only learns, in all the wecks,
How many chestnuts will fill his cheeks.
My teacher is patient, and never yet
A lesson of hers did I once forget,
For wonderful lore do her lips impart,
And ail her lessons are Jearned by heart.
Oh, come; oh, come, or We shall be late,
And autumn will fasten the golden gate!

100 Miles an Hour Railroad.
Through the air trom Chicago
to Jersev City by daylight at the
rate of 100 miles #n hour is the
dream of the Transcontinental
Railway Company, which is capi-
talized at $90,000,000, most of
which 18 already paid up, accoid-
ing tothe president. A trust deed
was executed vesterday with the
Equitable Trust Company 48
trustec, and placed on record 'n
the recorderTs fice. This deed
proyided for the issue of first
mortgage fifty rear 5 per cent
$100,-
000,000, in order to start the
building in Jersey City. The
construction of the road is to
begin at once Where and how
the company is going to establish
a terminal in Chicago are myster-
ies yet to be revealed.
The Transcontinental Railway
Company got a charter from the
Hlionois legislature on June 2%,
18"5.
The trust deed sets forth that
the Transcontinental Company is
engaged in constructing a dou-
bie track elevated electric railway
from Chicago to Jersey City, re-
presenting a mileage of from 700
to 900 miles. It is also set torth
PRD.
that the company bas been au: |
thorized by the directors and two-
thirds of the stockholders to
borrow money by issuing, selling
and. exchanging ils bonds fur
construction purposes, acquirins
other railroads, spur tracts and
branches. In exercise of this
power the company will issue
corporate bonds dated September
1, 1897, and to mature September
1, 1947, of 31,000 each, with inter-
ast at D per,cent., payable in cold
in March and September each
year, provided the bonds shall not
exceed $100,000 a mile of the main
line, spur tricks, branches and
equipments. If the road is to be
9U0 miles long ~his would mean
the issuing of $90,000,090 bonds.
As trustee. the Equitable Trust
Company is authorized to issue
if necessary, in addition to this
$10,000,000, arother $10,000,000
fot the purchase or acquisition of
rightsTof way, but in no case must
the issue amount to more than
$100,000,000, The company con-
vey3 to tha trust allthe property
it possesses or may become pos-
sesed of at any future time, in or-
der to secure the paymoent of the
bonds."New York Sun.
The St. Louis Democrat declares
that oone reason why 1898 is go-
jng to be a better business year
than 1897 was is that everybody
thinks it will be.� Popular judg-
ment is not always infallible; but
thinking certainly has a big effect
on business. And so far as the
retail business is concerned it is
| the advertisers who practically
control the thinking.

The Horrible and Grotesque.
Not a few of the scenes a clergy-
man is called upon to witness are
both grotesque and terrible. An old
man had been ill for months, but
clung to life with that wonderful
pertinacity which is so common
with old people. He was, of course,
a great burden to his two daughters,
who had to nurse him and at the
same time earn their own bread.
One day, on being asked how the
old man was, one of the daughters,
even while she stood by the bed,
announced: ~* TETs just the same; Te
is such a time a-dyin. I wish TeTd
~urry upa bit; itTs sT awkTard for me
and my sister, with our other work

oCan you supporther in -the

~Increasing the Population
The Macon Telegraph says:
oThe fecundity of the. colored
race was well illustrated at the
Union depot Saturday when a
negro woman got off the Georgia
train, followed by seventeen chil-
dren, the oldest ot which appeared
to be not over nineteen years of
age. The mother of this large
family did not appear to be over
thirty five years of age, and was
as strong and healthy looking as
anybody. As the large family
passed out, Gatekeepet Holmes
jckingly asked the woman if she
had any more children. ~Lord,
honey, these am all datTs left. I
had some moT, but er chimly fell
on Tm and killed some of ~em,T re-
plied the woman, candidly. Mon-
day last a family of white people,
consisting of a man and wife and
fifteen daughters, came up On the
Georgia Southern to make their
heme in Bibb county.

This is very largely an age of
shams and sheddy, of cheap labor
and cherp men. The tendency
is to cut prices and to skimp
work. Everybody wants to buy
at the lowest rates, andif any re-
liance is to be placed upon adver-
tisemeuts all the venders of goods
are disposed in this regard, to
with obargain counters� and
oslaughter sales,� legitimate bus-
iness is almost driven to the wall
by the cheatery of bogus business
houses. They seek to justify
their fraudulent vractices by
pleading that as the average cus-
tomer is uawilling to pay for good
coods, they are obliged to manu-
facture an inferior grade.-"Bap-

Medical books are not always inter-

joying good health, but asa matter of
fact scarcely one person in ten is per- |

sooner or later sickness must come.
It is also a well established truth
that nine-tenths of all diseases origi-
nate with a breaking down cf the
digestion, a weak stemach weakens
and impoveri shes the system, making
it egsy for disease to cain a fcothold.

All Willing to the Swap
A few days ago a dusky dame
accompanied by two sable beaux
called at the oflice of Register of
Deeds. One ofthe men asked for
license for himselt and the woman.
By way of exrlanation he said:
oPoss we wants to do what is
right. Dis woman is dat menTs
wifa, and we jist brung him ~long
to say dat he had no jection.�
The other negro spoke up:
oYes, Boss, she ismy wife, but I
esuldnTt liye wid her, now for sev-
eral vears, anT J freely gives my
consent for dis oder man to Lab
her.�
Tho whole party appeared
dreadfully disappomted, when
Clerk McDonald informed them
that under the circumstances be
could not issue license. They
thought they were acting with
unusual honesty and candor in
the matter. The neccessity of a
diyoree had never entered their
minds. Thsy went away sorrew-
ing.--Charlotte News.

COMPROMISING SECRETS.
In Some Evropean Countries They Aro
Sources of Some MenTs Power.
Perhaps no stronger illustration
of the power conferred by the
knowledge of compromising secrets
need be cited than thé immunity
enjoyed by M. Daniel Wilson, the
son-in-law of the late President
Grevy. While living at the Elysee
he made use of his advantages as
son-in-law of the president and
chairman of the parliamentary
budget committee to obtain from
the complaisant prefect of police, as
well as from the minister of the in-
terior of the day, copies, and in some].
cases the originals, of what are
known as the ~~dogssiersTT of nearly
20,000 of his fellow countrymen con-
spicuous in every walk of French
life. When subsequently indicted
asa principal in those disgraceful
Legion of Honor scandals which
caused the downfall of his father-
in-law and the condemnation of his
associates to various terms of im-
prisonment, he himself escaped all
punishment, thanks to the posses-
sion of these dossiers, which he
threatened to publish abroad if any
attempt were made to imprison
him. .
The dossiers are nothing more or
less than the result of secret police
investigation of the shadows on the
mation thus obtained being largely
supplemented by means of more or
less anonymous denunciations. In-
deed there is an entire branch of the
Parisian police force exclusively
employed in making up dossiers,
which often cover 20 and 30 years,
and it may readily be imagined how
great is the. power which those pos-
sess who have access to these dos-
siers.
That explains better than any-
thing else why ambitious and un-
scrupulous statesmen usually prefer
the portfolio of the interior depart-
ment to any other seat in the cabinet
and why the chief commissioner-
ship of the Parisian police has of
late become the stepping stone to
the highly paid embassadorship to
the court of Vienna and to the
equally lucrative and magnificent
viceroyalty of Algeria. There is
no statesman more hated in France
than M. Costans, whose political
and administrative actions have
been so utterly regardless of public
opinion, and, one might add, of pub-
lic requirements. Yet no one ven-
tures to attack him. His frequent
possession of the portfolio of the in-
terior department and the access
which he enjoyed while there to the
dossiers of the prefecture of police;
have placed in his hands a power
which every one of his many foes Is
forced to take into account and to
dread.
In Germany, in Austria, and espe- |
cially in Italy, the knowledge of a
skeleton in the closets of public men
is recognized as an instrument of
political warfare, and it is not so
many yeurs ago that a member of
the opposition almost caused a min-
isterial crisis at Rome by suddenly
bringing to light in the senate the
fact that one of its most venerable
and universally respected members,
the Senator Achille del Guidice, the
most intimate friend of ex-Premier
Crispi, and a knight grand _ cross
of the Order of St. Maurice and St.
Lazarus, had a quarter of a century
previously served not one but three
terms of penalservitude for forgery:
and embezzlement. " Washington

Total Abstinence at Sea.

which they do just before the ship
sails, their traps are searched, and
if whisky is found it goes usually
over the side, Sometimes the cap- |
tain takes charge of it and deals it
out to the men in bad weather. It
might be possible for a sailor to
smuggle aboard a little whisky,
enough to last for a day, but after
that he would be most likely a total
abstainer until the ship reached
port."New York Sun.
Not Poor,
A little girl was one day running
fell, cutting her hand on a stone. A
benevolent old lady went up to her
and assisted her to rise, at the same
time exclaiming:
~My poor wee lassie! My poor
wee lassie! Are you much hurt?�
The little piece of humanity wiped
away her tears and exclaimed indig-
nantly: :

DENSE BRITISH SKULLS.
Is Slowness to See a Joke a Growing
Characteristic of Englishmen?
Stories about the dull wit of the
English are told wherever men come
together,and one in particular, prob-
ably the prototype of the rest, is
pretty surely rendered in more or
less mangled form as often as the
subject of slow wit is introduced.
This is an old tale of two pedestri-
ans, an Englishman and an Ameri-
can, who saw a sign in the middle of
the road which read: ~To Somerset-
shire, ten miles; to. Gloucester, five
miles. Those who canTt read may
obtain proper directions at the
blacksmithTs, two rods up the road.�
The American, so goes the story,
stopped short in the middle of the
road and laughed heartily.
~~What are you lofting atf�T asked
the Briton. |
~Think awhile. Maybe you'll see
the point,� answered his friend.
oOh, I see!T exclaimed John Bull
an hour later. ~~Suppose the black-
smith shouldnTt be at home.�T
While at first, perhaps, this story
was not so bad, now its only good
office is that it invariably suggests
some others. At the Broken Shutter
the other night it brought forth
about six.
oITm glad you told the story,�
said the policeman to the assistant
telegraph man. ~~ItTs like meeting
an old friend or talking with your
family doctor. Now, I know a story
thatTs much like that, only itTs bet-
ter, as the man said when he com-
pared a photograph with an oil
painting.
~*You seo, two of us took our vaca-
tion in July and thought weTd like
to take a look into Canada and see
how the queenTs subjects look and
act. Well, we took a steamer from
the city of logarithms and glossa-
ries up to St. JohnTs, and of course
we stopped over on the way at one
little coast town. The captain said
it was to let us see the place, but
Billy and I took notice that he took
on a cartload or two of fresh vege-
tables, but we two and an English-
man went ashore, and of course we
wanted something to eat. |
~~We found a little restaurant up
the line a ways, where they hada
dinged pretty waitress " none of
your faded, painted brand, but a
real pretty, pert girl from out of the
Maine woods, or somewhere else
: where they grow nice girls. Things
went right nicely until we came to
the dessert, when I asked our pretty
girl what she had to top off with.
~* ~Temonpiepeachpieandapplepie, T
she says.
~Oh! says Billy here. ~Well, I'l
take some lemon pie andsome peach
pie.T | |
~oo~Umph!T says the little girl, with
a tilt of her pretty nose. ~What's
the matter with the apple pie?T
~All this while Mr. Englishman
was sitting there and listening. We
didnTt carearap and didnTt think
anything more of him, but when we
got back to the old tug that was tak-
ing us over the yond, why, English
cores up to me and touches me on
th: shoulder and asks, ~I beg your
parcon, sir, but would you mind
telling, me what was the matter
wii: that apple pie?T T"Washing-

The Chief Rascal.
Thomas wasa gentleman of Celtic
origin, and it did not, take long for
the boys to notice his brogue;
they made all manner of fun about
it, eften mimicking it toa nicety.
Thomas stood the torture as long as
any ablebodicd man could be expect
ed to, but finally he resurted to pur
ishment for his tormentors. On:
day, full of wrath at an exceptionai
breach on the part of a towheaded
youngster, ha strode vengefully to
the school. With much noise le
climbed the stairway in search sot
the principal, to whom he had beer:
advised to complain. He was cour
teously shown to that person and be-
gan to bitter!y denounce the actions
of the pupis.
oT am very sorry to hear this,�
exclaimed his Hstener, ~~and I wiil
try to put an end to it.�
oOi wish you would, sirruh. O11
