Mile- Theresa stood watching from the starting point, when she thought the balloon had gone sufficiently high, fired a pistol shot signal for the professor to cut loose the parachute and descend. The was not heeded, and after watching the balloon go higher and for a few moments she fired two rapid shots. Then there was the sudden drop through of the man and parachute and in a few feet the parachute opened and checked the row-like speed of descent. Yet the exceeding calmness of the air and the heavy weight of the the descent rather rapid. The balloon fell on Dick- avenue near the residence C. A. White, and the parachute in the lot behind his residence. Here was where the accident came Prof. Broad- wick. Ho fell on a picket fence and the him two very bad wounds, one on either side of the small of back. He was carried to Hotel Green- ville where Dr. Fountain attended to his injuries. Besides being badly bruised, three ribs are broken, but he is getting along as well as could be expected and will soon be out. he says he is accustomed to accidents and laughs about them. The other accident was to Capt. C. A White. He was in his front yard, and seeing the balloon fall in the street and the para- chute sailing over the house he began turning about to watch the latter, not noticing carefully where he stepped while looking upward. By a misstep or thrown down across a curbing to the pavement. In the fall his right wrist was broken, and the left wrist sprained his side badly hurt. Nobles and Laughinghouse attended him and today he is resting fairly well. Being about years old and not a strong man, his recovery will be slower than if he was younger.

THE MAIL ORDER BUSINESS What Do It Other Speaking of things in Greenville got does enough to have a little sensation, I wonder if any body in town can give an accurate idea as to the number of dogs in this old town. Of course the writer hits an idea, but it is taken off hand from a bird's eye view of main street I should say from what I have seen that there is in the neighborhood of hundred. But of course if any- one else has seen a less number he is entitled to his opinion. But according to my calculation as based upon aforesaid figures half the population of this burg j consists of dog meat. while I think of it, can't some body rig up an ordinance that will keep the aforesaid Dart of the population off the sidewalks like they do the bicycles wager a peck of peas to a pint of peppermint that if the dogs in this town could vote there never would be a chance to change the town administration.

These folks all tell you different reasons for their acts, how that the home merchant doesn't keep tho stuff, etc., but they can't expect them to have it under these and then if they haven't got it they can get it just as cheap and just as good as these mail-bag cronies.

Notwithstanding what he induced to do, it is well remembered that on the eve of the last election dent Roosevelt wrote a public letter denouncing as the charge made by Judge Parker that corporate interests had con- large sums to the Re- publican campaign fund. The rapid turning of the tide toward Bryan is a good that the country has be- come tired of the policies and burdens of Republican and control, and thinks a change will be for the better.

Is the man that votes the Republican ticket and the State Democratic state ticket a Republican or a Democrat Sun. We would say he is about half and half, and believes in taking things mixed. There are not enough in Pitt county to make anybody feel uneasy, but that is no excuse for every Democrat not to do his duty both in the campaign and in the election. At Guilford College six dents were arrested for hazing a fellow student. The six were carried to Greensboro and given a hearing and one of them was fined and costs, and suspended as to the others. That is the way to break up hazing. Chairman Hitchcock is poverty in campaign funds, but the intent of this cry is lo hide from the public the big corruption fund contributions lie is getting on the quiet. You need not expect the Republicans will not have money enough to flood the country just before the election.
