The lovers laid many plans to bring about the realization of their mutual wishes, but none of them seemed feasible. And finally death saved them any further trouble by suddenly foreclosing the long mortgage he had held i god laughs at all such- precautions. It happened that Miss was very fond of so, as soon as they ripened, she sent Ruth down to the meadow behind the house to gather some for tea, strictly charging her to and speak to no Now it curiously enough hap- that Mr. Edgar Haven, who glimpse of Ruth tripping down the lane, was suddenly re minded of a similar wish by his mother, and animated by a filial desire to gratify it, ed a basket and proceeded in the same direction. Now Edgar knew his young neighbor by name and sight, and politely accosting her, offered to show her where the berries were much more plentiful than where she was picking- Startled by his unexpected Ruth's first impulse was to drop her basket and run; but his look and tone were so gentle, his smiles so winning, and his eyes so beautiful, and then it would have been so rude So she not only stayed, but let him take her where the ground was red with the ripe and luscious fruit, and even accepted his prof- assistance in filling the basket. And then they began to talk, Edgar drawing her out with so much tact that Ruth began to feel quite at ease with him, though she was still somewhat shy of the glances of respectful admiration the young man directed towards her blushing face. As cousin Jonas was thought to be. to use her own words, half a man. at the and disavowed, both practically and orally, any inclination towards the chief folly and weakness of his sex.

There is no wonder at this when we see these men, who i armed themselves and went out I to meet another for the either making him marry their sis- or shooting him, set free after having killed their own cousin who was riding with the intended victim. There can be no as to the motives of these men when they went out on the roadside armed to the teeth. There can be no doubt of their killing Sam There is not the shadow of a doubt but what they were guilty of at least manslaughter and yet they are allowed to go free and almost awarded a prize by the jury. The fault lies somewhere and with somebody. We need not be prized that injured parties some times take the law in their own hands. The offense of Michael, the man whom they intended to kill, was a grave one and ought to have been severely punished, hut by law. We must call a halt in the farces that murder trials are as- of late. Our juries are the ones to do this, and unless they do this may expect that human life, that most sacred of all things, will never be safe. subscribers to settle.

There is a growing sentiment among the de- nomination to do move in this They feel and are emphasizing the importance of going into every part of the State and preaching the gospel to the poor and fostering a desire among them for better facilities. There has been wonderful progress in this direction and to-day there are more preach- all over the State doing their work, and more schools establish- ed under their influence than ever before in the history of the State. Wake Forest College is indeed the right arm of the Convention. The work it is doing for the in thoroughly equipping its ministers for their work and fitting young men to fill every position and profession open to them and is a power which is bringing invaluable good to us all. The Convention fully recognizes this and the Col- holds one of the first daces in the efforts and hearts of all its members.

Failing of in this the next thing to which they re- sort is to steal. The people of New elected a Democratic Legislature much to the surprise of Co. Not departing from their established custom they have been trying to steal enough places to make the Legislature remain Republican. However, they have failed so far, as the Democrats have members out of in the House and a tie, if not a majority in the Senate. The way of the transgressor is hard and Co. are fully realizing this at present. A northern sportsman from near Pittsburgh Pa., in a conversation with a Herald man Monday night, told him that he had spent a week at Newton, N. C-, and was greatly disappointed at finding no birds. He says his coming down into our section was the greatest he ever had, and that he had more birds right around home than could found in Newton. He gave our country a kind of on the bird line and returns home with the promise that he will never visit the section again. Salisbury Herald. Next time you stumble over a man in quest of birds send him down here to Pitt county where there are plenty of them- Tell him there is only one Greenville has no hotel that would be at all in- to the Northern sportsmen, but he can scrape up a lodging place and find birds enough to make up for the deficiency. Our town would get many of this class of visitors if we just had a hotel. Ex-President Cleveland declines the invitation to visit Raleigh during the present month. He says his engagement and forbids his having the pleas- of being with his North Caro- friends. A trip to the Expo- and a speech would have done much to allay the opposition in this State to Mr. Cleveland. It is a matter of regret that he could not come as he seems to be growing in favor since the elections as the probable candidate for the Presidency.

James, not quite two old, met with a very serious accident Sunday morning. The little girl and her father were sitting near the fire when the small rocking chair she occupied fell over forward throwing her so near into the fire that her right hand fell in a bed of hot embers. Mr James snatched her from the fire, but the whole palm her hand and fingers were dreadfully burned. Had her lather not been near at tho time the little one would no doubt have been burned to death.

On Thursday evening the enlist- ed gave a hop. Those who par- say it was the most en one of the season. Misses and Belt, the ed belles of Fortress Monroe, were the of attraction. On the following evening the of of the Post gave a garrison hop. We presume it was much en joyed by the participants as it was a late hour when the sweet strains of Sweet was heard. The excitement caused by the affair has about died out. Some of tho boys express much re- that they could not put their knowledge of Artillery to a cal test.

Many a man don't know the difference between being white- washed and washed white. You've got so many white-washed members and they scale off and have to have a new coat every big meeting. I've got some respect for the low that the devil has to set a new trap for every time, in a new place and with a new bait in order to catch him but some of you fellows are caught every day in the same old trap, in the same place with the same old bait.

I had starchy, re- looking always took the amen corner I preached repentance to him for sis months and not move him; finally I said, pointing my finger at him, you're a Saint going to heaven, and you made a poor widow pick three bushels of blackberries and paid her in shorts; you ain't fit to feed my dog, and I'd as soon expect to meet the devil in heaven as He got awful mad, but he sent that man a sack of good flour and made it all right and had a square talk with me and we were as thick after that as seven in a bed.
