trying to elevate the citizens and <lb/>

Our homo paper has become a fixed <lb/>

County pride, if nothing else, should <lb/>
induce us to stand by our home <lb/>

indifference fails to support his <lb/>
home paper, is wanting in county- <lb/>
pride. I am ambitious enough to <lb/>
want my county lo be the equal of <lb/>
any of her sisters point of <lb/>
and enterprise, if not in <lb/>
point of wealth; and without a good <lb/>
sound, healthy and enterprising <lb/>

enterprise must be <lb/>
am ambitious enough to m v <lb/>
county paper to the equal of any <lb/>
other county paper, without a <lb/>
liberal patronage from all our <lb/>
this be. The borne <lb/>
paper should make its weekly visits <lb/>
to every family its territory- We <lb/>
afford to assume the <lb/>
a family without <lb/>
providing all legitimate means for <lb/>
education. A good newspaper is a <lb/>
splendid educator, our children <lb/>
will eagerly it when they are <lb/>
slow to read anything else, <lb/>
course of one months they will <lb/>
have done a vast of reading <lb/>
that otherwise would have been <lb/>
neglected. I knew a man once with <lb/>
a large family children well <lb/>
and the man was poor, and <lb/>
being asked how be managed to <lb/>
educate his children he <lb/>
kept them well supplied with good <lb/>
newspapers other literature, <lb/>
and sent them to school what I <lb/>
could, they educated <lb/>
The newspapers help to <lb/>
create a thirst knowledge. <lb/>
There are children lo day well-nigh <lb/>
grown that do not know the world <lb/>
is much larger than tamers <lb/>
farm or their own neighborhood. <lb/>
The newspaper enlarges the ideas <lb/>
of our children as well as our own. <lb/>
know place where we can <lb/>
one dollar that will yield <lb/>
such large returns in our home <lb/>
paper. Then it is a great mistake <lb/>
that people make in subscribing for <lb/>
a pacer abroad to the neglect of the <lb/>
home paper. It is simply enriching <lb/>
others while we impoverish our. <lb/>
selves. It is about equal to saying, <lb/>
we have little or do home pride- I <lb/>
have no word to utter against sub- <lb/>
scribing to papers abroad if we just <lb/>
take our home paper. The first <lb/>
two papers for us to read is our <lb/>
home and church paper then as <lb/>
many more as our inclinations <lb/>
But one says, I can get a <lb/>
larger paper with more read- <lb/>
matter for the same price abroad <lb/>
than at home. That may be true, <lb/>
but yon car not afford to be without <lb/>
your home news. Your county <lb/>
pride is at stake and you cannot <lb/>
afford to sacrifice that Then even <lb/>
if we would all home <lb/>
piper with a paid up subscription, <lb/>
our hard worked editors could en- <lb/>
large then papers and give us much <lb/>
more reading matter. Another <lb/>
says, my neighbor takes the home <lb/>
paper, I read it. Well, that is <lb/>
just stinginess to the core, if we are <lb/>
at all able to subscribe for a paper. <lb/>
Some people excuse themselves by <lb/>
the editor is of different <lb/>
politics, therefore will not <lb/>
take his paper. I insist that that <lb/>
is not a valid excuse, and that we <lb/>
ought to read the home paper for <lb/>
the sake of our home If my <lb/>
paper was of different <lb/>
tics from mine, I would still sub- <lb/>
scribe to and read it as a home en <lb/>
and agree to disagree with <lb/>
the editor totalities. <lb/>
la conclusion I suggest that we <lb/>
all feel it our duty to aid the editor <lb/>
in making a good homo paper by <lb/>
sending him items of news from our <lb/>
neighborhood, those competent <lb/>
or accustomed to writing, contribute <lb/>
now and then to the or the <lb/>
paper. We should feet that it <lb/>

20th, 1891. <lb/>
New York and Brooklyn, which <lb/>
have been firm friends for lo these <lb/>
years, are. at last hi the midst <lb/>
of war. No armed hosts as yet up- <lb/>
peered on summit of the <lb/>
towers nor at the <lb/>

merits have, had n clash the re- <lb/>
is that New York has won the <lb/>

Bridge which counters New York <lb/>
with its suburb across the Fast <lb/>

by Brooklyn men, though <lb/>
each city was an equal partner. <lb/>
Bast week however, annual <lb/>
meeting of the trustees took place, <lb/>
when the New men <lb/>
the some <lb/>
were absent, a president was elect- <lb/>
ed from this city. The Brooklyn- <lb/>
look upon this as a kind of <lb/>
usurpation, and their defeated ex- <lb/>
president is fighting it as vigorous- <lb/>
an is possible. He attempted to <lb/>
hold office by force but was <lb/>
prevented by janitors who <lb/>
spent the in presidential <lb/>
chair. At last accounts President <lb/>
the new man, was <lb/>

threaten to go to court. Politics is <lb/>
said to be at bottom or <lb/>
fight, but it is hoped the bridge will <lb/>
still be loft standing. <lb/>

decided tendency to smaller sized <lb/>

purpose to improve the breed of <lb/>
horses so as to prove that the stock <lb/>
in North Carolina is inferior in <lb/>
speed and endurance to that of no <lb/>
other State. This has had proof <lb/>
already in performance of Mr. <lb/>
horse Pamlico; and <lb/>
fine or Capt. B. P. <lb/>

promise that Pamlico will not wear <lb/>

A year or so ago the pub- <lb/>

in South and described <lb/>
the efforts of different parties to find <lb/>
it. A prominent man of <lb/>
Charlotte spent a good deal of time <lb/>

The treasure was buried by a par- <lb/>
of Sherman's raiders. It consist- <lb/>
ed of gold coin and silverware be- <lb/>
longing to the of <lb/>
county. It had collected by <lb/>
the officers of the bank, and <lb/>
was being transported to a place of <lb/>
safety in a wagon, when the wagon <lb/>
was captured by a gang of Sherman's <lb/>
men. The gang buried the <lb/>
and that night one of the crowd, a <lb/>
soldier named Rhodes, sneaked to <lb/>
the spot, dug it up and buried it at <lb/>
another place known only to himself. <lb/>
In a skirmish next day, Rhodes was <lb/>
mortally wounded, and before he <lb/>
died he the spot where the <lb/>
treasure was buried to the Yankee <lb/>
surgeon. Just about that time, <lb/>
though, Sherman's men had to get <lb/>
away from there, and the surgeon <lb/>
never had an opportunity to hunt for <lb/>
the place. The surgeon confided the <lb/>

years past different ones have <lb/>

the trouble of getting there from <lb/>

and a ride of less than six hours <lb/>

to take in the Assembly, <lb/>
to hear feast <lb/>
glide o'er rippling waters in white <lb/>
winged fleet, and to get rid of the <lb/>
winter's accumulation dust by a <lb/>
plunge in the mighty Atlantic. <lb/>
At a glance the reader can see that <lb/>
the pleasures of the seaside are <lb/>
numerous. <lb/>
When me all arrived it was <lb/>
found that Greenville and Pitt <lb/>
county had a large at <lb/>

the names of Prof. John Duckett, <lb/>

The crowd at Morehead was <lb/>
simply largest ever <lb/>
known the mammoth <lb/>
Atlantic Hotel was crowded to its <lb/>
utmost capacity, so that to <lb/>
the vast throng hundreds <lb/>
of extra cots had to placed <lb/>
around in the rooms and parlors. <lb/>
Lot us add here in passing that <lb/>
this hotel could not better <lb/>
managed than by the Foster Bros. <lb/>
It was a wonder to how they <lb/>
could stow away train after train <lb/>
load of people as they would arrive. <lb/>
But they did it, way they <lb/>
fed such a multitude was no less a <lb/>
wonder. Considering tho <lb/>
crowd and tho low price of <lb/>
per day to those hold- <lb/>
membership <lb/>
one had ground for <lb/>
making complaint. Of course <lb/>
when the house is not so crowded, <lb/>
as will be the case when the As- <lb/>
is closed, and the rates <lb/>
raised to tho regular price of <lb/>
per day the fare can be more or <lb/>
less improved. <lb/>
Wednesday the As- <lb/>
convened, the opening ad- <lb/>
dress being delivered by Dr. G. <lb/>
W. Auditor. <lb/>
This was before our arrival. <lb/>
Thursday morning we listened to <lb/>
the address of the President, Prof. <lb/>
C- D. Ho spoke on the <lb/>
organization of the Assembly and <lb/>
its work ; bow it came to organ- <lb/>
what it had accomplished <lb/>
and something it could do in <lb/>
It was an excellent address. <lb/>
He bestowed much praise upon <lb/>
Maj- E. G. Harrell, whom he said <lb/>
had done more for the success of <lb/>
the Assembly than any ether per- <lb/>
son connected with it. <lb/>
Maj- S. M. Finger, State Super- <lb/>
intendant of Public Instruction, <lb/>
exhibited a chart by him <lb/>
self and gave a lecture on the <lb/>
of Study for a Four <lb/>
Mouths He said the law <lb/>
required that tho public school <lb/>
term be at least four months and, <lb/>
supposing that in few instances <lb/>
are they kept open for a longer <lb/>
time, he had mapped out a course <lb/>
of study for four mouths of each <lb/>
year, beginning at the age of <lb/>
and closing at and said any <lb/>
boy or girl, if in the hands of a <lb/>
competent ought to go <lb/>
through each course within tho <lb/>
four months allotted to it. <lb/>
of this course of study were <lb/>
discussed by several members of <lb/>
the Assembly, Prof. being <lb/>
among those who spoke. <lb/>
Thursday night the world fa <lb/>
Rev. T. DeWitt arrived <lb/>
and delivered a lecture. Ho be <lb/>
at o'clock and spoke for an <lb/>
hour and twenty minutes. His <lb/>
theme was many <lb/>
of which he pointed out. While <lb/>
his lecture was good and contain- <lb/>
ed many good things, it failed to <lb/>
come up to our expectation. He <lb/>
is a great man, has a great <lb/>
possesses a strong, <lb/>
voice, talks very plainly and <lb/>
simply, but has poor delivery and <lb/>
lacks many of the attributes that <lb/>
go to make an orator. In fact, he <lb/>
be justly classed an orator. <lb/>
When we learned that he received <lb/>
for this lecture, we could but <lb/>
think there are. numbers of men who <lb/>
can make a better lecture much <lb/>
loss money. Still we were glad of <lb/>
the opportunity of hearing the dis- <lb/>
divine, for can <lb/>
ways tho better enjoy reading after <lb/>
a man when they have both seen <lb/>
and heard bun. <lb/>
Friday night lion. W. T. <lb/>
U. S. Commissioner of Education, <lb/>

men to appear before the Assembly. <lb/>

A writer from Edgecombe county <lb/>
to the recent published <lb/>
statistics in that paper of the tobacco <lb/>
crop in the several tobacco growing <lb/>
of the State. The writer <lb/>
has probably fallen into the error of <lb/>
taking the figures to be a census <lb/>
the crop of 1890 and sot out to <lb/>
that the tobacco crop of Edgecombe <lb/>
the year was three times as <lb/>
large the figures it Oar <lb/>
was that tho census <lb/>
which was taken last year, was for <lb/>
the crop of and not for <lb/>
year which the census was taken. <lb/>
This being the case it hardly needs <lb/>
proof that tobacco crop of that <lb/>
county for 1890 was three times as <lb/>
large as the previous year. <lb/>
it was so in Pitt, and though <lb/>
the figures as returned in that <lb/>
are not by us at this writing we <lb/>
believe the tobacco crop of Pitt <lb/>
county was five fold great- <lb/>
than it was in And the <lb/>
acreage for 1891 is perhaps double <lb/>
what it was in 1890. These eastern <lb/>
are coming to tho front in <lb/>

Last Friday North Carolina was <lb/>
again called upon to give up <lb/>
more of her noble sons, Ex-Gov. <lb/>
David S. Reid at his home in <lb/>
Reidsville. He was eighty-eight <lb/>
years old. His career was on <lb/>
one and one of much <lb/>
good to his native State. At the <lb/>
ago of he was admitted to the <lb/>
bar. He was State Senator six <lb/>
years, member of Congress four <lb/>
years, from 1843 to 1847. In 1848 <lb/>
he was nominated by the Demo- <lb/>
for Governor, but was de- <lb/>
by a small majority. In <lb/>
1850 he was again nominated <lb/>
against his will and was elected <lb/>
Democratic Governor of <lb/>
North Carolina. He led his <lb/>
party to victory in this State. He <lb/>
lived to see that party almost <lb/>
overthrown in the days of <lb/>
and he lived to see it <lb/>
again triumphant and the champ- <lb/>
ion of free suffrage and the rights <lb/>
of the people, doctrines to which <lb/>
he was unconditionally committed. <lb/>
Since the war Reid has not <lb/>
been much in public life. He died <lb/>
as he had lived, beloved by his <lb/>
countrymen. <lb/>
Tho Republicans of Ohio met <lb/>
in convention last week and <lb/>
out their high tariff man, j <lb/>
As the tariff is his pet hobby j <lb/>
and as he was the author of the j <lb/>
infamous measure which is known <lb/>
throughout tho whole country as <lb/>
the Bill, it is very prob- <lb/>
able that tho tariff will made <lb/>
the issue the campaign. The <lb/>
Democrats will probably nominate <lb/>
Gov. Campbell. The election is <lb/>
four months off and it is <lb/>
to tell what tho result will <lb/>
The have nothing to <lb/>
fear from a long campaign, for the <lb/>
tho tariff is discussed and <lb/>
the bettor tho people understand <lb/>
it tho better are tho chances of the <lb/>
Democrats. Gov. Campbell has <lb/>
made a good Governor and ought <lb/>
to rally the full strength of the <lb/>
Democratic party, but there may <lb/>
some who will not <lb/>
support him. Mr. was <lb/>
beaten in his own district last fall <lb/>
for Congress, and going into the <lb/>
campaign just having been beaten <lb/>
on- the issue which he will make, <lb/>
ought to throw the odds decidedly <lb/>
against him. If the Democrats <lb/>
will rally their full strength they <lb/>
can carry the State and legislature <lb/>
and send a Democrat to the Unit- <lb/>
ed States Senate in the place of <lb/>
j w. i i <lb/>
seems to have lost control of his <lb/>
party in Ohio, and is now- <lb/>
seeking his scalp and place in the <lb/>
national council. The indications <lb/>
are that Mr. Sherman will not be <lb/>
returned to the Senate if the Re- <lb/>
publicans carry the State. If the <lb/>
Democrats will make a decided <lb/>
and strong fight they ought <lb/>
carry the State. The result of tho <lb/>
election will doubtless much <lb/>
to do with the Presidential <lb/>
nations next year on both sides. <lb/>
Tho long dispute about the <lb/>
Retiring Sea seal fisheries has at <lb/>
last been settled. If they had <lb/>
waited much longer would <lb/>
probably have boon no use of set- <lb/>
it, for the seals would have <lb/>
been a thing of the past. The <lb/>
states as Iowa, Michigan and Wis <lb/>
cousin is no longer regarded as a <lb/>
political as be <lb/>
was not so very long ago, and re- <lb/>
publicans from those states have by <lb/>
score recently admitted that <lb/>
they considered them doubtful. <lb/>
Representative Oats, of Alabama <lb/>
w, . , it , proposes like Mr. Mills to tarn <lb/>
Brutish Government has agreed <lb/>
to prevent the killing of seals till <lb/>
May 1895. Tho United also <lb/>
agrees to the same, but is allowed <lb/>
to kill seals during the time. <lb/>
They both agree to tho <lb/>
and of either side who <lb/>
violate this treaty are to de- <lb/>
livered when taken to the nation <lb/>
to which they belong for trial and <lb/>
punishment. tho matter <lb/>
is settled for good. <lb/>
The Force Bill is not yet alto <lb/>
dead. There a few in <lb/>
tho Republican party who intend <lb/>
to make it an issue in 1892. Tho <lb/>
Democrats can wish for no better <lb/>
issue. That and the <lb/>
Bill were the leading topics tho <lb/>
last campaign, and the I bought support. <lb/>
purpose of verifying dates etc, in a <lb/>
volume of war reminiscences which <lb/>
he bus written, the official records <lb/>
being all on file in the War depart- <lb/>
I was told to day-that <lb/>
of Pensions with the <lb/>
assistance of the pension attorneys, <lb/>
had made solid with the <lb/>
administration, and that in <lb/>
of ho and the pension at- <lb/>
having agreed to swing <lb/>
G. A. It. into line for Harrison that <lb/>
bad agreed to forget all <lb/>
the damaging charges of and <lb/>
allow him to continue in charge of <lb/>
the Pension Office. This deal gives <lb/>
Mr. Harrison the active support <lb/>
the National Tribune, pa- <lb/>
per, and also a new soldiers pa- <lb/>

WASHINGTON LETTER. <lb/>
Grosvenor has <lb/>
been special World's <lb/>
Fair Commissioner in charge of <lb/>
foreign exhibits, as a salvo be <lb/>
forced off the immigration com- <lb/>
mission. As the salary Is the <lb/>
and both places include a trip to <lb/>
Europe at Uncle Sam's expense <lb/>
Grosvenor isn't shedding many <lb/>
tears. <lb/>
DAVIS MONUMENT MEETING. <lb/>
Tho visiting committee appoint- <lb/>
ed by the Governor to visit the <lb/>
State University and its <lb/>
condition and work, made a very <lb/>
satisfactory report. They state <lb/>
that the University is in a good <lb/>
condition, and probably doing the <lb/>
best work in its history. It is very <lb/>
gratifying to know that all our in- <lb/>
of learning are doing <lb/>
so well. <lb/>
A few weeks ago a Mr. <lb/>
a well known man and Re- <lb/>
publican politician of Ohio was <lb/>
appointed by the President to <lb/>
visit Europe in regard to for- <lb/>
and investigate <lb/>
the matter of so many outcasts of <lb/>
other countries coming here. He <lb/>
was very much in favor of restrict- <lb/>
ed immigration if we may judge <lb/>
by what he said in regard to the <lb/>
State of Wisconsin. His sayings <lb/>
were reported in the Washington <lb/>
papers, and they greatly <lb/>
the voters of that State. Ho <lb/>
saw at once that the Republicans <lb/>
would lose ground in Wisconsin, <lb/>
so he out and flatly denied <lb/>
what he had said. But he was <lb/>
not to have it all his way here. <lb/>
The papers showed him up, and <lb/>
the administration called for his <lb/>
resignation, but promised him <lb/>
something better. The affair, <lb/>
however, shows what kind of a <lb/>
man he is. It shows that he will <lb/>
swallow his own words even when <lb/>
they are true rather than for his <lb/>
party to lose a few votes. But in <lb/>
this he only voices the sentiments <lb/>
of the whole Republican party, <lb/>
it was this fear of losing votes <lb/>
that caused the administration to <lb/>
call for his resignation, and it <lb/>
is this same fear that causes the <lb/>
leaders of the party to say that we <lb/>
need no new immigration laws but <lb/>
only the enforcement of the <lb/>
present laws. But this Re- <lb/>
publicans will do, for the <lb/>
new comers are mostly <lb/>
cans. <lb/>
our Regular <lb/>
Washington, June <lb/>
Secretary Foster received a most <lb/>
unexpected set back this week. He <lb/>
had made all of bis arrangements <lb/>
to attend Ohio republican con- <lb/>
as the chief representative James secretary. <lb/>
ST. C, June <lb/>
Pursuant to call of Gen. J. B. <lb/>
Gordon many citizens assembled <lb/>
tho Court House here to-day to de- <lb/>
means of assisting in the <lb/>
of a monument to the memory <lb/>
of Jefferson Davis. <lb/>
Maj. Henry Harding was elected <lb/>
permanent chairman and F. G. <lb/>
Home narrow sighted newspaper <lb/>
man said when Chief Justice <lb/>
was invited by the bar of Rich- <lb/>
to visit that city it was done <lb/>
for tho purpose of trying to get <lb/>
him to be a candidate for <lb/>
Presidency. But this opinion was <lb/>
Mr. Fuller ha no <lb/>
Presidential aspirations. Besides <lb/>
he would not think of opposing <lb/>
Mr. Cleveland if he thought Mr. <lb/>
Cleveland had any Presidential <lb/>
aspirations. In fact he does not <lb/>
want President. <lb/>
of administration and manager <lb/>
of the Sherman Senatorial side show <lb/>
It was cards for him to have <lb/>
secured passage of a resolution <lb/>
endorsing the administration, so <lb/>
worded as to practically commit <lb/>
convention to Harrison for thus <lb/>
shutting our Ohio's <lb/>
if he can be <lb/>
Governor fully intends entering <lb/>
lists against Harrison or any- <lb/>
body else that may appear And <lb/>
in addition to that Senator Sher- <lb/>
man expected bis assistance the <lb/>
passage of a resolution that would <lb/>
have placed Sherman astride the <lb/>
shoulders of <lb/>
But all plans are now off. <lb/>
Foster did not attend the <lb/>
Ohio convention. Why Because <lb/>
Senator Sherman sent word by <lb/>
a trusty personal messenger not to <lb/>
come, as his presence would only <lb/>
irritate the men who had <lb/>
obtained control of the convention. <lb/>
It was then suddenly discovered <lb/>
that the business of the department <lb/>
was so pressing that secretary <lb/>
would be compelled to defer bis <lb/>
intended visit to Ohio to look after <lb/>
some private business until Thurs- <lb/>
day, and was so announced to the <lb/>
is always as <lb/>
to be gullible enough to be- <lb/>
anything if the tel- <lb/>
bean official; but at the <lb/>
department they know Mr. <lb/>
Foster's grip sock was all packed <lb/>
all arrangements made for. his <lb/>
trip when he received a telegram <lb/>
telling not to come and <lb/>
an explanation bad been-sent to <lb/>
him by messenger and they know <lb/>
that that messenger arrived <lb/>
next day was for two mortal <lb/>
hours closeted with Mr. Foster in <lb/>
bis private office, to the exclusion <lb/>
of everybody even his private and <lb/>
confidential stenographer. <lb/>
There are rumors here of a com- <lb/>
between and <lb/>
the object of which is to <lb/>
make Sherman's successor <lb/>
in the Senate and the <lb/>
Presidential nominee of his party <lb/>
next year, provided of coarse that <lb/>
the republicans can elect <lb/>
Governor and control legislature <lb/>
this year. It is believed here that <lb/>
it was this combination that forced <lb/>
Ex-Representative Grosvenor to <lb/>
bis recast appointment as <lb/>
chairman of Treasury <lb/>
which to makes delightful <lb/>
summer tour of Europe for the <lb/>
of investigating <lb/>
migration. There has been more <lb/>
or less bitter feeling between Cora <lb/>
and ever since hut <lb/>
year. <lb/>
Democratic prospects for next <lb/>
year are very encouraging <lb/>
as seen through the eyes <lb/>
to Washington, and the man who <lb/>
predicts attention <lb/>
Patriotic speeches were made by <lb/>
several citizens and by Capt. Swift <lb/>
Galloway of Goldsboro and Maj. <lb/>
Withers, of Georgia. <lb/>
motion a standing Committee <lb/>
consisting ladies and three <lb/>
gentlemen was appointed to solicit <lb/>
lands. I. A. Sugg, E. A. <lb/>
A. L. Blow, Mrs. Gov. Miss <lb/>
Sue and Miss Jennie <lb/>
Mr. J. C. Cook and Capt. John <lb/>
King appointed special committee <lb/>
to solicit funds around Falkland. <lb/>
F. G. James was elected <lb/>
The following resolution was <lb/>
That the confederate <lb/>
soldiers and the sons of those soldiers <lb/>
in Contention assembled at Green- <lb/>
ville, N. C, the 18th of June 1891, <lb/>
pursuant to General orders from <lb/>
Commanding general, send their <lb/>
greeting to John B. Gordon and <lb/>
promise their best endeavors to fur- <lb/>
the objects of his command, <lb/>
and a hope that a monument shall <lb/>
be raised to Davis com- <lb/>
with his <lb/>
vices and sufferings for the people of <lb/>
the South. <lb/>
On motion Mr. G. B. re- <lb/>
quested to address this association <lb/>
in the Court House here at o'clock <lb/>
p. on Saturday July 4th. Mr. <lb/>
King has accepted and all may ex- <lb/>
an eloquent address. <lb/>
Other talented speakers will also <lb/>
make short speeches on that day. <lb/>
All old soldiers and <lb/>
dents are invited to be present. <lb/>
All persons desiring contribute <lb/>
to Jeff Davis Monument fund <lb/>
are requested to pay to either <lb/>

WEEKLY <lb/>
For the Ending- Friday, Juno 19th <lb/>
1891. <lb/>
Central Office, C. <lb/>
The reports of correspondents of <lb/>
tho Weekly Weather Crop Bulletin <lb/>
issued by tho North Carolina Ex- <lb/>
Station and State <lb/>
Service for the week ending Fri- <lb/>
day, June 19th, 1891, show that tho <lb/>
weather during entire week has <lb/>
been the most favorable experienced <lb/>
for a long time. Tho temperature <lb/>
has been considerably in excess, <lb/>
sunshine <lb/>
latter part of tho week occasional <lb/>
have prevailed generally- <lb/>
In consequence crops have made <lb/>
marked improvement. Grass is <lb/>
getting under control somewhat, <lb/>
though still very abundant. The <lb/>
wheat harvest now progressing has <lb/>
prevented farmers from devoting <lb/>
much time to the cultivation of <lb/>
crops. Farm labor is reported <lb/>
to obtain. Of crops generally, <lb/>
cotton shows the least improve- <lb/>
; it is not all chopped yet, and <lb/>
stand continues poor. Tobacco has <lb/>
made a start. The wheat <lb/>
vest will probably completed <lb/>
next week; yield be a good <lb/>
average of excellent quality. <lb/>
Another week will enable <lb/>
farmers to bring their work nearly <lb/>
up to date, will give a better <lb/>
outlook to the crop prospects. The <lb/>
condition of crops averages about <lb/>
the same now in all districts. <lb/>

Two gentlemen from Marion, S. C, <lb/>
were in town Monday looking for a <lb/>
horse and road cart stolen from them <lb/>
a week before. They had traced the <lb/>

Goldsboro. <lb/>
While the Opera House was being <lb/>
lighted for Dr. lecture last <lb/>
Tuesday night, a exploded and <lb/>

was extinguished without any <lb/>

This town was billed last week for <lb/>

to give their performance. The <lb/>
Open House it no longer open to any <lb/>
kind of theatrical troupes. <lb/>
All who have seen the tobacco <lb/>
hanger invented by Mr. A. G. Cox <lb/>
pronounce it the best on the market. <lb/>
Some farmers who had orders out <lb/>
for the Snow stick have counter- <lb/>
them and turned them over <lb/>
to Mr. Cox, one single order being <lb/>
for hangers. <lb/>
The past season Cox Can el I <lb/>
made and sold Cox Cotton Plan- <lb/>
from their factory, and lacked <lb/>
as many as filling all the orders <lb/>
received. Theirs is the cotton <lb/>
planter in the world. Their factory <lb/>
does many other kinds of work be- <lb/>
side making planters. <lb/>
The Baptist Sunday School did <lb/>
not stop and picnic at Yankee <lb/>

and spent a few hours in that <lb/>
pleasant town. A good lime was re- <lb/>

The question now arises whether <lb/>
or not the stock law around Green- <lb/>

We believe that Pitt county Is In <lb/>

Alex in his venture, we regret <lb/>
that Greenville shows such <lb/>
to enterprise and such lack of <lb/>
co-operation in establishing <lb/>
trial improvements, that our young <lb/>
men are forced to go elsewhere to <lb/>
make investments. It is this same <lb/>
spirit of man for <lb/>
that robs Greenville of some of her <lb/>
best citizens, and that allows neigh- <lb/>
boring towns to outstrip her in the <lb/>
race of progress and draw <lb/>
much of her legitimate trade. <lb/>
The Reflector has time and again <lb/>
raised notes of warning along this <lb/>
line. We hope they will be heeded <lb/>
before it is too late. <lb/>
Good Crops <lb/>
Monday evening we went out lo <lb/>
Mr. B. F. Patrick's farm, just south <lb/>
of town, and looked over his crops. <lb/>
He has as bright prospects as any <lb/>
man in the county and is expecting <lb/>
to make a large crop. There arc <lb/>
acres in cotton that will nearly aver- <lb/>
age knee high and we noticed that <lb/>
much it already had to <lb/>
squares lo the stalk. By the last of <lb/>
this week blossoms will be <lb/>
in field. Mr. Patrick also has <lb/>
a large acreage in corn is line <lb/>
and his tenants have many acres in <lb/>
tobacco that is growing beautifully. <lb/>
He is devoting himself somewhat to <lb/>
trucking and has nice <lb/>
peanuts, potatoes, melons, Next <lb/>
year he will engage largely in truck- <lb/>
One good thing about his crops <lb/>
now is that they arc clean of <lb/>
grass and in fine condition. He ex- <lb/>
to make a bale to the acre on <lb/>
most his cotton. The <lb/>
wishes that every farmer in the <lb/>
had as bright prospects for a good <lb/>
crop as he has. <lb/>
From his place we went over to <lb/>
look at the crop of Messrs. <lb/>
C. D. and . Harris. <lb/>
These gentlemen have several acres <lb/>
of the weed that is unusually line. <lb/>
Walking through field we noticed <lb/>

gasped Mrs. isn't a <lb/>

been robbed of my interest money, all <lb/>
my hard earnings and savings of a year, <lb/>

even to take it all in Anne shouted at <lb/>
him until she war. hoarse to try and <lb/>
make him understand. and then he went <lb/>
about shaking hie head and to <lb/>
himself for half a day. <lb/>
The doctor came home early in the <lb/>
evening from rather damped <lb/>
by the result of his expedition. He had <lb/>
found an officer, and had succeeded in <lb/>
searching Bridget's sister's house, but <lb/>
without avail. The act had brought a <lb/>
tide of indignation on his head, not only, <lb/>
from Mrs. Booney herself, hut from the <lb/>
neighbors, who were ready to hoot him <lb/>
out of town. Bridget's sister, it <lb/>
was n highly respectable person, <lb/>
and had also a power of that, <lb/>
seemed to blister where the words fell. <lb/>
The doctor was threatened with <lb/>
of brickbats and a hot water douche it <lb/>
he remained another fifteen minutes in <lb/>
and he was glad to beat a <lb/>
hasty retreat by the first train. <lb/>
Nothing daunted, however, he pushed <lb/>
the investigation into Bridget's trunk <lb/>
that night by aid of one of the <lb/>
constables, but nothing was found there <lb/>
but the poor girl's belongings, and <lb/>
get went on t of the at midnight <lb/>
sobbing violently, and vehemently de- <lb/>
it was a wicked thing to take <lb/>
away a poor girl's character when there <lb/>
a particle of proof against her. <lb/>
CHAPTER V. <lb/>
The <lb/>
her time, to MM r from fatting. <lb/>
There was a slight rustle at the other <lb/>
end of the room, and Anne looked <lb/>
around and saw Miss standing in <lb/>
the door with her street things on. <lb/>
did tell you. Miss she <lb/>
put in, quite uninvited. I warn <lb/>
yon it was unsafe to keep any large sum <lb/>
in. in the Didn't plead <lb/>
with you as a friend to go and open an <lb/>
account, and deposit money in the <lb/>
you returned Mrs. <lb/>
feebly through her fast dropping tears, <lb/>
but what's the use of bringing it <lb/>
now I distrusted banks after so many <lb/>
savings institutions had broken. <lb/>
thought it better to keep the money by <lb/>
mind the old whispered <lb/>
Anne, with her lips close to her <lb/>
mother's car, and her strong, <lb/>
arms about the little woman's waist. <lb/>
us where the money was when it <lb/>
was perhaps we shall find it is <lb/>
all a <lb/>
Mrs. brushed away a few salt <lb/>
drops with the corner of her checkered <lb/>
apron. <lb/>
know, Anne, how careful I've <lb/>
always been to lock up money. It was <lb/>
the middle drawer of the bureau <lb/>
in room, left <lb/>
her mother in the arm- <lb/>
Upright. <lb/>
Anne was obliged to help get din- <lb/>
to burn her pretty cheeks the <lb/>
cook stove, blacken her white hands <lb/>
with Miss Carver came <lb/>
to the kitchen as often as possible to see <lb/>
the auburn haired princess in her fallen <lb/>
state. Anne her back on her <lb/>
brusquely, for she disliked <lb/>
and greasy pots and kettles filled her soul <lb/>
with abhorrence. It was painful to be <lb/>
exulted over by her enemy, who. in her <lb/>
voice, assumed that Anne <lb/>
was very fortunate to have the <lb/>
to learn housework, which, in her <lb/>
position in life, would prove useful. <lb/>
There was no time now for piano <lb/>
or those little skirmishes of pleas- <lb/>
in which Anne and the doctor had <lb/>
been wont to indulge. She could not <lb/>
even snatch a moment of time to regale <lb/>
his horse, with lumps of sugar. <lb/>
The doctor made excuses for frequent <lb/>
visits to the kitchen, and came to the <lb/>
conclusion that Anne was prettier there <lb/>
than when they were singing their songs <lb/>
together in the little parlor. His <lb/>
needed no fairy godmother to <lb/>
heighten her charms. <lb/>
Miss Carver had now great budgets of <lb/>
news to carry to the Widow <lb/>
The two dear friends spatted rather <lb/>
more than usual, us the widow had <lb/>
made up her mind that the doctor had <lb/>
taken the money not be moved <lb/>
from her position. The doc- <lb/>

must have gone there in a hurry and <lb/>

ago yesterday. I think, when I went up <lb/>
to make change to the butchers <lb/>
bill, and there was angel cake lilting <lb/>
the i . and I was in a great taking for <lb/>
fear it would burn. It must have been <lb/>

a reluctant whisper. <lb/>

goes hate that room except <lb/>
Of it was Bridget, and it accounts <lb/>
for her strange actions this last ten days. <lb/>
She has the stove covers and <lb/>
banged the kitchen utensils when I have <lb/>
asked her to do a chore, and yesterday <lb/>
she broke the sou;, tureen. I thought <lb/>
she was in love, but I Bee now <lb/>

wicked to leave round where it <lb/>
a wrong direction had led the <lb/>
Irish to include him in the general boy- <lb/>
against the family, and had <lb/>
stirred up some prejudice in other <lb/>
but when he looked at Anne he felt <lb/>
he would have imperiled his position five <lb/>
times over for her sake. <lb/>
One August afternoon a telegram came <lb/>
to the doctor to a friend <lb/>
suddenly taken ill in a city hotel. There <lb/>
i was just time to catch the train, with <lb/>
hardly a minute to spare, but as he was <lb/>
rushing out of the door, bag in hand, he <lb/>
something left undone and <lb/>
turned back to the parlor, where his <lb/>
landlady was Bitting. the way, <lb/>
Mrs. here is my board for the <lb/>

hand, then turned and dashed <lb/>
away. When Anne to the room a <lb/>
few minutes later found bar. mother <lb/>
sitting in the armchair bolt upright, <lb/>
quite stiff and rigid, as if stricken with <lb/>
paralysis. Her brows were knit, <lb/>
white lips pinched together, and sat <lb/>
gazing stupidly before her, with the bill <lb/>
the doctor had given her tightly clinched <lb/>
in her hand. <lb/>
cried Anne, it <lb/>
that bad stitch in your and the <lb/>
girl stood panic stricken gazing at her <lb/>
mother's white face. <lb/>
Anne what a blow this will be <lb/>
