Mr. J- D. little boy, <lb/>
David, and a companion, Hardy <lb/>
son of Mr. Stephen Priest, <lb/>
narrowly escaped falling victim <lb/>
to a large one in Haywood's <lb/>
Their Work Rewarded. <lb/>
The farmers of will <lb/>
live nest the <lb/>
words of an old refrain, there will <lb/>
in tho smokehouse and <lb/>

of both- The most abundant <lb/>
corn crops ready for the <lb/>
vest fine cattle roam the pas- <lb/>
and the proverbial <lb/>
is showing fat sides in this <lb/>
year of grace. <lb/>
The Georgia farmer has been <lb/>
practicing economy during the <lb/>
hard times ; he is not as heavily <lb/>
in debt as heretofore, the <lb/>
close of the crop season finds him <lb/>
in comparatively easy <lb/>
with the promise of well-filled <lb/>
barns the prospect of in <lb/>
dependence in tho coming year. <lb/>
The majority of tho who <lb/>
BU the soil laid their plans well <lb/>
at the beginning of the season <lb/>
they planted more corn; they <lb/>
more attention to stock <lb/>
; they lived hard and worked <lb/>
hard; they saved where once <lb/>
they had squandered, and it goes <lb/>
without saying that they will <lb/>

honest toil and self-sacrifice <lb/>
Not so much money is going <lb/>
out of pockets now to the <lb/>
North and West for articles that <lb/>
they at home ; they <lb/>
are cutting down expenses ; they <lb/>
are economizing in little things <lb/>
utilizing their timber their <lb/>
soil for all they are worth- <lb/>
At last they have struck the <lb/>
keynote to the situation; the y <lb/>
are following the right lines, and <lb/>
what is benefiting them is adding, <lb/>
also, to tho welfare of the state. <lb/>
They alive to their individual <lb/>
interests, and they are making a <lb/>
record which is worthy of wide <lb/>
emulation- As tho farmers pros- <lb/>
per, tho state prospers what <lb/>
affects them, is felt by all. Let <lb/>
them continue as they have <lb/>
gun, and they will do good to <lb/>
themselves and good to Georgia- <lb/>

So few cooks or housekeepers <lb/>
seem to know that every article <lb/>
of food should be covered until it <lb/>
appears on the table- Milk and <lb/>
butter, for instance, should be <lb/>
kept air-tight vessels and kept <lb/>
covered. They both take <lb/>
every odor flying in the air, and <lb/>
are positively harmful to take <lb/>
into the stomach after standing <lb/>
uncovered for an hoar or two; <lb/>
for not only odors but the <lb/>
that fill the air are <lb/>
attracted to the milk and butter. <lb/>
TRUTH <lb/>
It is undeniable that there is <lb/>
some confusion in the popular <lb/>
mind respecting truth-telling and <lb/>
arising from a failure to <lb/>
understand the essential elements <lb/>
of truth and falsehood. So far as <lb/>
the individual himself alone is <lb/>
concerned he may make a false <lb/>
statement without lying or he <lb/>
may make a true statement and <lb/>
yet lie in doing so. The question <lb/>
is one of sincerity in the one case <lb/>
rod an intent to the <lb/>
other. All the sophistry <lb/>
lies, especially white lies, <lb/>
disappears when tested by the <lb/>
purpose or intent of those utter <lb/>
them. a sincere man <lb/>
tolls that which ho believes to <lb/>
true he baa not uttered a lie. <lb/>
the statement itself may <lb/>
be false. On tho other hand, the <lb/>
hypocrite who, keeping within the <lb/>
bounds of truth, insinuates a false <lb/>
hood or by suppressing a part of <lb/>
the truth conveys a false impress <lb/>
and does so with the intent to <lb/>
deceive, is an absolute liar, more <lb/>
despicable oven than those who <lb/>
lie outright with no pretense of <lb/>
adhesion to truth. The <lb/>
should be clearly impressed <lb/>
on the minds of children lest they <lb/>
should mistake tho form for the <lb/>
substance. Sincerity, <lb/>
are the elements <lb/>
of truth-telling; deceit is tho <lb/>
essential element of lying- <lb/>
The harsh measures sometimes <lb/>
used against children to punish <lb/>
them for slight offenses are very <lb/>
often responsible for the develop- <lb/>
of a habit of lying- The <lb/>
child becomes afraid to <lb/>
ledge his offenses, it much <lb/>
easier to play the hypocrite <lb/>
thus win favors than to brave <lb/>
disclosure and a ping- It is <lb/>
a great mistake to breaK down a <lb/>
young person's frankness and <lb/>
sincerity by harsh treatment, for <lb/>
there are no qualities which bet- <lb/>
deserve cultivation. With <lb/>
them he will be naturally a truth- <lb/>
teller. Without them he may <lb/>
pay respect to outward forms <lb/>
of truth as a matter of policy, but <lb/>
will do violence to it it <lb/>
may serve his purpose to do Bo- <lb/>
is an lesson to the <lb/>
young sometimes to point out <lb/>
two characters a com- <lb/>
respected and trust- <lb/>
ed, the other feared and distrust- <lb/>
then get them to find <lb/>
out for themselves what is the <lb/>
difference between the two men. <lb/>
If they are at all discerning they <lb/>
will soon see that one is frank, <lb/>
sincere, honest, and that the other <lb/>
is tricky, false in word and deed <lb/>
and very often a hypocrite. The <lb/>
contrast is greater if the men are <lb/>
the same class of society, with <lb/>
respect at least to <lb/>
sessions. Whether they are rich <lb/>
or poor, a wide gulf is drawn be- <lb/>
tween has troops <lb/>
of friends, the other only wary <lb/>
and suspicious acquaintances- <lb/>
Truth-telling, which is something <lb/>
more than strict adherence to the <lb/>
letters of truth, is so essential to <lb/>
the formation of good character <lb/>
that the young should be taught <lb/>
to esteem the qualities from which <lb/>
it springs, and not merely <lb/>
taught by rote tho sin of lying- <lb/>

POSTAL CARDS. <lb/>
Since the introduction of <lb/>
cards as a means of <lb/>

What About it Now <lb/>
many honest, well- <lb/>
moaning men in tho ranks of the <lb/>
Populist party, who have been <lb/>
deceived by men who are looking <lb/>
for office. These good, honest <lb/>
farmers and of other trades <lb/>
have all the while declared that <lb/>
they are as good Democrats as <lb/>
they ever were ; but how can they <lb/>
say that any longer Now that <lb/>
the Republicans have taken in <lb/>
the Populists how can these <lb/>
remain in the <lb/>
mix If they can favor high <lb/>
protection, which has wrung so <lb/>
many millions of dollars from the <lb/>
of the honest working <lb/>
man, and still be Democrats, <lb/>
perhaps they can stay in the <lb/>
mixed Neck <lb/>

Mr. Fred Miller, o Irving, writes <lb/>
that he had a Severe Kidney trouble <lb/>
for many years, with severe pains in <lb/>
his back and that his bladder was <lb/>
affected. He tried many so called <lb/>

result. a year ago he began <lb/>

At John L. Wooten's Drug Store, <lb/>
card contract was sublet to Wool- <lb/>
worth Graham whose <lb/>
with the contractors came <lb/>
through supplying paper. The <lb/>
third contract was let to Wool- <lb/>
worth ft Graham, of New York ; <lb/>
the to Wool worth A; <lb/>
ham, the fifth to Al the <lb/>
sixth to Wool worth Graham- <lb/>
The first contract price was <lb/>
per 1.000, tho second GO <lb/>
cents, the third cents, the fourth <lb/>
cents, tho fifth cents and <lb/>
the sixth cents. The <lb/>
required for the first <lb/>
was 150-000,000. The pro- <lb/>
sent required quantity per is <lb/>
500,000.000. <lb/>
Until the contract was <lb/>
let tho postal cards had all <lb/>
made of one size. Postmaster <lb/>
Wanamaker it to three <lb/>
sizes. Tho small card of <lb/>
purplish tint was designed <lb/>
for use, and of which <lb/>
it was estimated that 100,000.000 <lb/>
per year would be required, but <lb/>
for which the demand has been <lb/>
less than The next <lb/>
size, with estimated <lb/>
demand for ; the <lb/>
third size, 100,000.000 per <lb/>
It took just two years to <lb/>
make contractor supply the <lb/>
large card. This was natural, <lb/>
because it cost him more. When <lb/>
the latter was red for sale, <lb/>

One of the most wonderful, as <lb/>
well as the most awe-inspiring, <lb/>
sights ever seen in Baltimore was <lb/>
an appearance seen last night in <lb/>
the heavens, says the Baltimore <lb/>
Herald. Attention was frequent- <lb/>
called to a certain in the <lb/>

This or as ho i electrical display in tho shape of <lb/>

Dr. Biggs considered it <lb/>
an infallible cure for diphtheria <lb/>

after The principle <lb/>
was the as that of tho <lb/>

discovered for the cure of con- <lb/>
Dr. defended <lb/>
tho latter, which, he said, was all <lb/>
Dr. Koch had claimed for it, <lb/>
though not what the public at <lb/>
first thought it to be. <lb/>
Dr- said ho had heard of <lb/>
this remedy some ago. Ru- <lb/>
of its efficacy kept coining <lb/>
across until it was thought ad- <lb/>
to send Dr. Biggs to Ber- <lb/>
to investigate it- Dr- Biggs, <lb/>
he said, had spout a great deal of <lb/>
time tho laboratories <lb/>
studying tho now <lb/>
Whatever doubts Dr. Biggs <lb/>
had at first were dissipated by his <lb/>
observations He had seen Prof. <lb/>
and other famous Ger <lb/>

to tho same conclusion as him- <lb/>
self. In Berlin he found between i <lb/>

vivid uninterrupted that the <lb/>
southern sky for the space of a <lb/>
half hour was brilliantly <lb/>

ed themselves and the Hashes <lb/>
stopped. When began <lb/>
again a perfect of an <lb/>
angel, robed in tho purest white, <lb/>
showed itself- The illusion was <lb/>
perfect. Two rifts in the clouds <lb/>
formed the wings, and a small <lb/>
cloud raiment- A slight pro- <lb/>
from the garment formed <lb/>
the and no better <lb/>
could be wished. All this <lb/>
time tho black clouds tho rear <lb/>
made the figure stand out in life- <lb/>
like proportions, and the <lb/>
Hashes of light gave it a <lb/>
sort of halo that made tho effect <lb/>
almost supernatural. People all <lb/>
over tho city were <lb/>
some were seen to fall en <lb/>

blackness of tho night hail broken <lb/>

it lasted, and great excite- <lb/>
attended its presence- An <lb/>
old colored woman saw it and <lb/>
Lord, look <lb/>
and fainted away. No <lb/>
could her to believe that <lb/>
it was simply a cloud effect <lb/>
the strange phenomenon <lb/>
began to clear, the whole thing <lb/>
was easily understood, although <lb/>
many nervous people have not <lb/>

them. <lb/>
THE NEGRO MET THE LAWYER <lb/>

A Kentucky lawyer was stand- <lb/>

old colored man came up, and <lb/>
touching his hat <lb/>

Congress- <lb/>
The county convention meets <lb/>
Thursday. Delegates from every <lb/>
township have already been <lb/>
chosen, and will be hero in force- <lb/>
This will an exceedingly <lb/>
day in tho coining cam <lb/>
We would make a few <lb/>
suggestions to the convention. <lb/>
Tho first is that they should <lb/>
for all the offices men of <lb/>
clean records and untainted De- <lb/>
men in whom every <lb/>
body has confidence. There are <lb/>
many such in the county and the <lb/>
convention not to make <lb/>
any mistake at this point Again <lb/>
they ought to strong wen. <lb/>
strong intellectually, morally, so <lb/>
men thoroughly conversant <lb/>
with the needs of the people, and <lb/>
with courage to advocate their <lb/>
convictions. <lb/>
If possible, we ought to be more <lb/>
careful than for any other in <lb/>
reference to the nominees for the <lb/>
Legislature. This will be the <lb/>
fight this year. No one believes <lb/>
the enemy when they pretend as <lb/>
if they are after a non-partisan <lb/>
Judiciary. They want the <lb/>
and want it bad, and it be- <lb/>
hooves this convention to <lb/>
those men whom they can- <lb/>
not beat with all combination, <lb/>
fusion, or co-operation they can <lb/>
muster up. . <lb/>
Then, again, we need perfect <lb/>
harmony in all the work that you <lb/>
may do that day. This is a year <lb/>
that seems to favor harmonious <lb/>
conventions in Democratic circles- <lb/>
Let not this convention be an ex- <lb/>
No issues which are not <lb/>
actually necessary should be <lb/>
drawn into the campaign, <lb/>
this is true in reference to the <lb/>
convention. Let every Democrat <lb/>
be on the and see to it that <lb/>
he is here Thursday both by <lb/>
word and deed show that we pro- <lb/>
pose to enroll Pitt county again <lb/>
this year in the Democratic col- <lb/>
despite any combined effort <lb/>
that may made us by <lb/>
this new order of things <lb/>
and Pop-Reps. Every <lb/>
mail brings news of fact that <lb/>
many who were honest, sincere <lb/>
Populists are denouncing tho <lb/>
of leaders to get them <lb/>
to rote for Republicans and are <lb/>
returning to the Democratic <lb/>
pasty. This will continue until <lb/>
the day of election- With men <lb/>
who are all right in this county <lb/>
nominated by Thursdays con- <lb/>
we will see many who did <lb/>
not with at the last <lb/>
coming back, and casting <lb/>
their vote and influence for good <lb/>
government. <lb/>

Death cf Mrs. E. A. Move. <lb/>
Our community wan surprised <lb/>
and pained on last Wednesday <lb/>
morning when the sad news was <lb/>
told from one to another that <lb/>
Mrs- Mary L- wife of Mr. <lb/>
E- A- Clerk of Superior <lb/>
Court, had died suddenly the <lb/>
previous night at a little past <lb/>
midnight. Mrs. suffered a <lb/>
stroke of paralysis a year ago <lb/>
and since then has in poor <lb/>
health but at no time had she <lb/>
seemed bettor than for a few <lb/>
weeks her death. Tho <lb/>
previous she talked <lb/>
cheerfully with tho family and <lb/>
told of some of her plans when <lb/>
she should get well. The family <lb/>
about the usual time and <lb/>
near midnight. Mr. was <lb/>
aroused by her struggling and <lb/>
breathing badly. He called his <lb/>
sons and sent one of them for a <lb/>
physician, but she died in a few <lb/>
minutes- <lb/>
Mrs. was a daughter of <lb/>
N- D. and Mary Edwards, cf <lb/>
Lenoir comity, and was two days <lb/>
past years old. She was mar- <lb/>
to Mr. in December, <lb/>
1865. he and three children <lb/>
her- She joined the Dis- <lb/>
church at Corinth the first <lb/>
Sunday in August, 1868, herself <lb/>
and husband both being <lb/>
at the same time. She was a <lb/>
most excellent woman, lived and <lb/>
exemplary Christian life, and was <lb/>
greatly beloved by tho many who <lb/>
knew her. <lb/>
The remains were interred at <lb/>
the burial ground, near <lb/>
Farmville, on Thursday, services <lb/>
being conduced at the grave by <lb/>
Rev. I. L Chestnut. Many per- <lb/>
sons from Greenville went out to <lb/>
the funeral. The husband and <lb/>
children have the sympathy of the <lb/>
community in great loss. <lb/>
Mr. J. D. Williamson Dead. <lb/>
A few weeks ago Mr. J- D. <lb/>
wont from Greenville to <lb/>
for his health, being a <lb/>
sufferer with consumption and <lb/>
having previously received <lb/>
fit from treatment there. Tues- <lb/>
day evening a telegram came <lb/>
from his physician stating that <lb/>
after several severe hemorrhages <lb/>
pneumonia had developed and <lb/>
the outlook was doubtful. Next <lb/>
morning his son Guy and his <lb/>
brother, Mr. Paul Hosier, left for <lb/>
Wednesday evening <lb/>
another telegram stated that his <lb/>
condition was still worse, and <lb/>
Thursday the sad news came that <lb/>
he was dead. His body was taken <lb/>
to Suffolk, Vs., for burial, which <lb/>
place was his former home and <lb/>
where most his relatives live. <lb/>
Mr. Williamson came to Green- <lb/>
ville about twenty years ago <lb/>
took a position at Mr. John Flan- <lb/>
buggy factory. He worked <lb/>
there for several years and then <lb/>
became a partner in tho firm of <lb/>
Lawrence, Williamson Co- <lb/>
Two members this firm died, <lb/>
and after some changes <lb/>
short periods Mr. Williamson <lb/>
became sole proprietor of tho <lb/>
factory which he successfully <lb/>
conducted the remainder of his <lb/>
life, and in which he made a com- <lb/>
fortunate. <lb/>
He was married to Miss Sophia <lb/>
E. Adams, of this town, in June <lb/>
1878 Four children were born <lb/>
to them, three of whom are now <lb/>
living. His wife died in April, <lb/>
1890. The remains of his wife <lb/>
and child will be removed to <lb/>
folk and placed beside him. <lb/>
Mr. Williamson was a member <lb/>
of the Methodist church here, <lb/>
lived an upright life, and was <lb/>
held in highest esteem among all <lb/>
our people. Besides the factory <lb/>
and real estate here, which he <lb/>
desired converted into cash and <lb/>
invested in Virginia for his <lb/>
his life was insured for <lb/>
for their benefit. Greenville <lb/>
will greatly miss him. <lb/>

CHANGES OF THE <lb/>
of tho Little Home Across <lb/>
the Way. <lb/>
a Happy Prosperity Makes <lb/>
Pot Under a Mort- <lb/>
Strange <lb/>
Home Again. <lb/>
Across Mm way there stands an <lb/>
old I say old Well, It <lb/>
was at one time, but a little paint, <lb/>
and a bit of does much <lb/>
for one verging on the shady side <lb/>
of prime, and so with its coat of <lb/>
dark green one hardly recognizes it <lb/>
as an old friend. Years ago it <lb/>
wore a white dress, emblematic of <lb/>
the fair bride that took possession. <lb/>
There were few neighbors in those <lb/>
days, and had there been more in <lb/>
number I doubt if any would have <lb/>
attracted my attention as did that <lb/>
particular household. I was a little <lb/>
child and the pretty bride <lb/>
me to that degree that I <lb/>
would for hours watching her <lb/>
about her daily tasks. <lb/>
Nellie always John good-by <lb/>
and waited for his return at night. <lb/>
During the day I could hear her <lb/>
softly singing, and when the tender <lb/>
spring brought its gift of rich <lb/>
she walked beneath the <lb/>
boughs, and on her <lb/>
.-m rested a tiny head. <lb/>
Though John worked late, there <lb/>
was time to keep the garden trim, <lb/>
the house in and cherished <lb/>
an idea that the sun always shone <lb/>
across the way. <lb/>
After a time John sold a portion <lb/>
of the property to a syndicate of <lb/>
gentlemen who wished to run a rail- <lb/>
road through the town. Now you <lb/>
know there are some souls that can- <lb/>
not stand prosperity. Alas my <lb/>
neighbor was one of these. <lb/>
By and by, began to <lb/>
whisper about John's misdoings; <lb/>
the little wife was always busy, but <lb/>
she did the chores alone; the light <lb/>
burned far into the night; tho gar- <lb/>
den was not so trim, and the gate <lb/>
had lost a hinge. <lb/>
Had it not been for the merry <lb/>
laugh of the little girl, I fear the <lb/>
rain would have fallen; as it was tho <lb/>
sun was hidden a cloud. <lb/>
During my stay in hoarding school <lb/>
my parents died, leaving me to the <lb/>
of an aunt, who resided far <lb/>
from my old home. Thus I lost <lb/>
of my old neighbors for a time. <lb/>
When I wearied of society, with <lb/>
its false glitter show, wearied <lb/>
of the city, I returned to the home <lb/>
of my childhood, to the peace and <lb/>
quiet cf country life. <lb/>
My first inquiry was for my neigh- <lb/>
Nellie, learned how John <lb/>
had spent in drink all the money so <lb/>
easily made; then, against his wife's <lb/>
entreaties, had mortgaged their lit- <lb/>
home; this, too, had gone to <lb/>
satiate the unquenchable thirst, and <lb/>
he had finally died tho death of a <lb/>
drunkard. <lb/>
And the girl Mortified and <lb/>
i she had to make her way <lb/>
in the city. They had never heard <lb/>
of her again, nor of her mother, who <lb/>
had presumably gone to seek her <lb/>
child. <lb/>
I felt sadly depressed and lonely <lb/>
as I watched my new neighbors. I <lb/>
lived again In the old dream, the <lb/>
former fascination awoke, and I <lb/>
start to find myself gazing <lb/>
with almost Impertinent Interest at <lb/>
the new occupants of the old house. <lb/>
One an infirm woman in a <lb/>
shabby black dress passed along the <lb/>
street. She halted for a moment <lb/>
at our gate, gazed wistfully across <lb/>
the way, then resumed her walk. <lb/>
after day she repeated this <lb/>
strange action, always stopping for <lb/>
a moment sad, pathetic <lb/>
the house opposite. <lb/>
Weeks passed, then months, but <lb/>
she continued her daily walk; she <lb/>
was growing more feeble, and the <lb/>
black gown more dingy. <lb/>
One when it appeared to me <lb/>
that she Could not come again, slow- <lb/>
she crossed the street, and lifting <lb/>
the fatten of the gate, passed beneath <lb/>
the old trees which were dressed in <lb/>
the autumnal colors of October. <lb/>
She her hand for the knock- <lb/>
but it was not there. The little <lb/>
button at the side of the door did <lb/>
not attract her attention, and if it <lb/>
I doubt if she would have known <lb/>
its use. <lb/>
Finally she gently tapped, and the <lb/>
door was opened by the of <lb/>
the child playing In the yard. <lb/>
I could not hear what she said, <lb/>
but I bounded to my feet with an <lb/>
exclamation of astonishment, as I <lb/>
beard my neighbor's joyful <lb/>
In the gloaming, my old neighbor <lb/>
and the new sit together with hands <lb/>
clasped; the dress, replaced <lb/>
by one of gray, has caught <lb/>
the of sun and re- <lb/>
than in still beautiful <lb/>
face. <lb/>
There is happiness across the way, <lb/>
for my neighbor of long ago has <lb/>
found peace at last a of <lb/>

One of the most unfortunate <lb/>
things a person attempt in <lb/>
Gotham is the indiscriminate <lb/>
the Samaritan act upon <lb/>
tho Ungrateful nineteenth century, <lb/>
public, says the New York Sun. A <lb/>
happy illustration of this was fur- <lb/>
the other day crowded <lb/>
corner in the Sixth shopping <lb/>
district. A perambulator had been <lb/>
wheeled up in front of a shop win- <lb/>
with a rosy and bright-eyed <lb/>
baby wrapped up in furs inside, and <lb/>
a handsome little man of six with <lb/>
long golden curls standing guard <lb/>
and singing to the baby. As the <lb/>
people passed by they turned to look <lb/>
at the children with a little <lb/>
prise, and then, like the priest and <lb/>
the wisely passed by on tho <lb/>
other side. But pretty soon a nice <lb/>
old lady with snow-white hair <lb/>
along and stopped by the carriage <lb/>
and questioned the little fellow, who <lb/>
stopped his song for a minute and <lb/>
then went on with It bravely. The <lb/>
old lady decided that those children <lb/>
must be protected, and so she took <lb/>
up her place by the carriage and <lb/>
waited ten minutes when another <lb/>
along and stopped a second to <lb/>
look at the pretty children and ask <lb/>
them some more questions about <lb/>
why they were left there alone. Then <lb/>
the old lady alongside and they <lb/>
talked It all over together, before <lb/>
tho little boy, what a burning <lb/>
It was to leave the children there <lb/>
alone, and how two tramps had just <lb/>
stood there ever so long watching <lb/>
them. Then they told the little boy <lb/>
to tell his that tho <lb/>
girl left him there alone, and <lb/>
around, chuckling the baby <lb/>
under the chin and asking questions <lb/>
and calling t hem little <lb/>
until the baby put up Its grieved <lb/>
under lip and the little boy stopped <lb/>
his song and begin to cry big tears. <lb/>
Tho old lady upon that decided <lb/>
that the other lady should stand <lb/>
guard while she went found the <lb/>
nurse and had this shameful thing <lb/>
stopped. Just then there appeared <lb/>
on tho scene a little, plainly dressed <lb/>
woman without any gloves, and <lb/>
though her garments were far from <lb/>
being fine and dainty, like those of <lb/>
the children, the baby's eyes were <lb/>
just like hers the boy's long <lb/>
curls were the same tint as tho tight <lb/>
little knob twisted up under her <lb/>
cheap hat. When she found out <lb/>
what all the trouble was about she <lb/>
turned a pair of flashing eyes upon <lb/>
the old lady and <lb/>
will you kindly tell me <lb/>
how I should take cans of my <lb/>
If I leave them at home they <lb/>
set themselves on Are; If I do not <lb/>
bring them along with mo they do <lb/>
not get a breath of fresh air from <lb/>
one Sunday to the next; I cannot <lb/>
take my baby carriage Into the store <lb/>
because they will not allow it; If I <lb/>
leave it outside the door without tho <lb/>
children it is stolen; if I leave the <lb/>
children with It no one harms It or <lb/>
them. They are quite used to being <lb/>
left here and have always enjoyed <lb/>
Then she shook the boy and <lb/>
promised him a spanking when ho <lb/>
got homo for crying, straightened <lb/>
up the baby and them off, <lb/>
leaving the gentle, old lady a sadder <lb/>
and a wiser woman, and the other <lb/>
woman a new idea to incorporate in <lb/>
her philosophy on the benevolence <lb/>
of minding your own affairs. <lb/>
The Practical Joker Got a Shock. <lb/>
The sportive young man who en- <lb/>
joys playing tricks had a shock the <lb/>
other day. He had just come down <lb/>
the elevated stairs at Park place <lb/>
and had started In the direction of <lb/>
City Hall park, when his face light- <lb/>
ed up with a pleased smile. It was <lb/>
evident he saw some one whom <lb/>
ho knew, and that he saw some fun <lb/>
ahead. He began lo walk rapidly, <lb/>
and as be along it could he <lb/>
seen that the person whom ho knew <lb/>
was a young woman, for be kept his <lb/>
eye on her. watching her can-fully <lb/>
us she slipped in and out of tho <lb/>
crowd, and all the while his smile <lb/>
grow broader and eyes twinkled <lb/>
more merrily. <lb/>
Finally, when he was only a few foot <lb/>
behind her, he begun to walk on tip- <lb/>
toe. Then he stole quietly up to <lb/>
her and laid his hand on her shoulder. <lb/>
ho said In her ear, and <lb/>
the next Instant he wished that <lb/>
he hadn't, for a woman <lb/>
looked at him with eyes that <lb/>
at first startled, but which then <lb/>
flashed Indignation. <lb/>
dare she gasped, but <lb/>
before she could say another word <lb/>
he broke In with apology. <lb/>
His confusion was so great and he <lb/>
looked so much the fool that no one <lb/>
could doubt that be was telling the <lb/>
truth, but the young woman ac- <lb/>
his apology with a pale <lb/>
as if she thought he were a lunatic, <lb/>
so that ho bowed bis bead and dived <lb/>
into a crowd, the most crestfallen <lb/>
joker in New V. Tribune. <lb/>

The simplest way to get the <lb/>

When cured, shock the ears, <lb/>

That is about one eleventh or about <lb/>

cost no more to grind cobs with corn <lb/>

than watching the natives trade in <lb/>
camels. The camel market Is a <lb/>
huge square in the center of the <lb/>
town. Here the animals are <lb/>
ranged in long rows, their front feet <lb/>
raised on a mud elevation construct- <lb/>
ed for the purpose, the object being <lb/>
to show off the size and height of <lb/>
creatures. <lb/>
uproar and confusion of the <lb/>
market is tremendous with the in- <lb/>
howling of buyers and <lb/>
sellers as they, dispute; their chat- <lb/>
after they have agreed, and <lb/>
the horrible shrieking of the animals <lb/>
at having their noses pulled for the <lb/>
purpose Of making them show their <lb/>
agility in kneeling and rising. In <lb/>
order to test the strength of the <lb/>
camel and the burden it is capable <lb/>
of bearing they make it kneel, and <lb/>
then pile one thing after another <lb/>
upon Its back, causing it to rise <lb/>
until it can rise <lb/>
no longer. <lb/>

The Contagion of Mirth. <lb/>
Curious, how contagious mirth is <lb/>
Who at times hasn't laughed just <lb/>

cause of it all was a mystery. <lb/>
attended a town meeting In a <lb/>
village said a- lady friend of <lb/>
the Journal, tried to give <lb/>
attention to tho affairs under <lb/>
discussion. I sat in the gallery with <lb/>
other feminines, and as confusion <lb/>
prevailed every few minutes among <lb/>
the of below I <lb/>
found it a difficult matter under- <lb/>
stand all talk. Something was <lb/>
said by a speaker that provoked a <lb/>
laugh, but I didn't heap a word of it <lb/>
and couldn't tell where the joke <lb/>
came in. A lady who sat next to <lb/>
me laughed and, of <lb/>
course, I thought she knew all about <lb/>
it, and I politely asked her what It <lb/>
Was pleased, so. <lb/>

chants of Greenville. They send <lb/>
this paper to you for two <lb/>
sons ; first, to call your <lb/>
to Greenville as the best <lb/>
tobacco market Eastern Caro- <lb/>
second, to call your at- <lb/>
to the fact that Greenville <lb/>
merchants can sell you goods <lb/>
just as as can be <lb/>
bought anywhere- You are <lb/>
doubly interest in you <lb/>
have to s you the very <lb/>
prices possible for it, and <lb/>
what you have to buy you want to <lb/>
pay I ho lowest price. That is <lb/>
just as natural as it is for the sun <lb/>
to rise and set Look over this <lb/>
paper carefully and you <lb/>
want to sell <lb/>
Greenville. <lb/>
or buy, come to <lb/>
Homicide. <lb/>
Information late Sun- <lb/>
day evening that a colored man <lb/>
named Turner Smith had <lb/>
shot and killed by another color- <lb/>
ed man named John Page, about <lb/>
ton miles from Greenville- <lb/>
Warren went down that <lb/>
bight to investigate the case. <lb/>
The particulars as we have been <lb/>
able to gather them are about as <lb/>
Smith married the <lb/>
mother of Page and treated her <lb/>
so cruelly that she him and <lb/>
sought refuge the home of her <lb/>
sou. Smith made repeated j <lb/>
threats that if Page did have <lb/>
his wife back to his <lb/>
by a certain day he was <lb/>
going to kill his <lb/>
mother came Lo Greenville <lb/>
day and swore out a peace war- <lb/>
rant for which Sheriff <lb/>
King was going to serve on Mon- <lb/>
day. Sunday afternoon Smith <lb/>
rode up to Page's gate, the <lb/>
latter seeing him before he got in <lb/>
forbid him entering the premises. <lb/>
Smith rode to some trees a short <lb/>
distance away, tied his horse to <lb/>
one of them, and started back on <lb/>
foot to the gate. In the mean- <lb/>
time Page had in the <lb/>
and got a rifle fired on Smith <lb/>
before he reached the gate, the <lb/>
ball killing him instantly. <lb/>

Mr. H- L. of Virginia, <lb/>

Mr. J. B. Cobb, of Danville, <lb/>
Va-, manager of the A. T. Co., <lb/>
spent a day on the breaks here <lb/>
last week. <lb/>
Mrs. Starke. wife of the <lb/>
of the Greenville Wale- <lb/>
house, after spending some days <lb/>
here, returned home last Thurs- <lb/>
day. <lb/>
Mr. J. W- Hodges, of Beaufort <lb/>
county, had a large lot of tobacco <lb/>
here last Thursday and sold at <lb/>
the Eastern. He expressed him- <lb/>
self as well pleased with prices. <lb/>
All the warehouses had large <lb/>
breaks again last week and ob- <lb/>
good prices. The offer- <lb/>
last week were not altogether <lb/>
so good as the previous week and <lb/>
there was a slight decline in <lb/>
prices, but there has been an <lb/>
this week- <lb/>
That the tobacco interest here <lb/>
is the main stay of the business <lb/>
of Greenville is a fact so evident <lb/>
that it needs no argument. Put <lb/>
Greenville like she was years <lb/>
ago, with no stimulus but the <lb/>
fall cotton trade, and with such <lb/>
low prices as that staple is now <lb/>
bringing you would almost a <lb/>
dead town from a business stand- <lb/>
point But as it is, there is no <lb/>
town the size of this in the east- <lb/>
part of the State that is doing <lb/>
a better business, or that has a <lb/>
brighter future- We have three <lb/>
large warehouses that pay out <lb/>
a week to farmers for to- <lb/>
and besides this there are <lb/>
over two hundred hands at work <lb/>
around these warehouses and the <lb/>
who receive their wages <lb/>
weekly. The bulk of this money <lb/>
finds its way to our merchants. <lb/>
Seeing such advantages coming <lb/>
to the town from this one <lb/>
try every other business should <lb/>
stand ready to help and <lb/>
age it in every way possible; <lb/>
When the tobacco men need the <lb/>
co-operation of the merchants to <lb/>
push the market forward they <lb/>
should have it. Let all work <lb/>
together in every movement that <lb/>
will help Greenville. <lb/>

The Greenville Tobacco Board <lb/>
of Trade met in session <lb/>
the last Monday night in August <lb/>
Mr. R. H. Hayes stated that as he <lb/>
had connected himself with a <lb/>
warehouse he hoped no one <lb/>
would vote for him for President, <lb/>
whereupon Mr. J. W. Morgan <lb/>
was placed in nomination and <lb/>
there being no opposition was <lb/>
elected by acclamation. Mr. P. <lb/>
H. Gorman was elected <lb/>
and Mr. George Harrison <lb/>
re-elected Secretary and <lb/>
The law forbidding; the drum- <lb/>
ming of tobacco while in transit <lb/>
to market was discussed and <lb/>
judging from the action of the <lb/>
board it will be most rigidly en- <lb/>
forced. An amendment was <lb/>
passed to that law prohibiting <lb/>
even the purchasing, by anyone, <lb/>
of tobacco that was in transit to <lb/>
the Greenville market. <lb/>
Everyone of the warehouse- <lb/>
men and all the buyers seemed <lb/>
to take an active interest and ex- <lb/>
pressed themselves determined <lb/>
to have the laws carried out. It <lb/>
was decided to start sale at <lb/>
o'clock promptly and the house <lb/>
that used to at its appoint- <lb/>
ed time should be passed over <lb/>
There were more than <lb/>
in attendance with <lb/>
of vehicles, besides horse-, <lb/>
back riders and pedestrians. <lb/>
The crowd spent the entire day <lb/>
at the home of Mr. Hodge and <lb/>
had spreads on the <lb/>
grounds at noon. <lb/>
Two sermons were preached by <lb/>
Rev. Mr- Vass. of Carroll county, <lb/>
Va., and Rev- Mr. Lawson, of <lb/>
Surry county. Hon. A. H. Joyce, <lb/>
of Danbury, delivered an able ad- <lb/>
dress in the afternoon. <lb/>

Mr. Hedge has one hundred <lb/>

He has been a consistent <lb/>

There was in some of the daily <lb/>
papers, a short time a story <lb/>
Lady Burton, of England, <lb/>
that at least attracts attention. <lb/>
Without attempting to verify it, <lb/>
we may assume its truth- It is <lb/>
the effect that, on the death of <lb/>
her Lady Burton found <lb/>
in his papers the manuscript of a <lb/>
book, which he had just <lb/>
It was a book, sen <lb/>
in the extreme, but con- <lb/>
allusions, descriptions of <lb/>
so gross as to be <lb/>
injurious to morals. <lb/>
Soon after the death of her <lb/>
husband an offer was made to her <lb/>
of for the manuscript. <lb/>
She was without If she <lb/>
should refuse this offer, she would <lb/>
be dependent on friends the rest <lb/>
of her life. She took the <lb/>
script, examined it, and satisfied <lb/>
herself of the probability that <lb/>
its publication would do mischief- <lb/>
Then she deliberately committed <lb/>
it to the flames ; and thus put <lb/>
herself out of the reach of tempt- <lb/>
ever to yield- <lb/>
is the universal <lb/>
cry. Yes that was heroism. It <lb/>
was noble and right. <lb/>
But what a contrast with some <lb/>
of us. For thirty thousand <lb/>
she would not utter that <lb/>
might do mischief. Alas <lb/>
how many of us, for no gain ex- <lb/>
a moment's fun, do utter <lb/>
what may do the greatest injury. <lb/>
Oh, that Christians, all Christians, <lb/>
would use the same as <lb/>
did Lady Burton, in all the cir- <lb/>
of our lives. Often, <lb/>
oh, so often, by refraining from <lb/>
some word or deed, we can in- <lb/>
the world for good, or at <lb/>
least avoid influencing it for <lb/>
Where Is the Line. <lb/>
A great deal is being said in <lb/>
j these days about the eastern and <lb/>
I western sections of our State, and <lb/>
different people have different <lb/>
and vague ideas as to whore the <lb/>
dividing Hue really is- <lb/>
Dr. J. M. Hays, in preparing a <lb/>
medical article involving certain <lb/>
statistical questions, has <lb/>
the interesting fact that <lb/>
the line is at the same <lb/>
place both for population and <lb/>
area. The population of the I <lb/>
