terms in Frank Leslie's Illus-

Skinner, however, only asked that
this system should apply to cotton
and he gave as a reason for its
adoption the fact that while the
Southern States held virtually a
monopoly of production of that
important staple, yet its price In
the markets of the world was de-
annually before the

speculators and consumers.
As the national constitution

Skinner wished to secure was gov-

The Convention of the Y. M. C.

chosen as the place for holding the
next session of the convention.
Last Friday the Board of
tees of the projected Baptist Fe-
male University held a meeting at
Wake Forest to decide whether or
not their former action in selecting
Raleigh as the place to locate the
school should be reconsidered.
After a full discussion and
consideration the Board de-
not to reconsider its former
decision. There were sixteen
members of the Board present and
the best of feeling prevailed. All
the Trustees present expressed a
determination to join in
to make the University a
success. Work on the buildings
will probably begin during the
coming summer. At this meeting
Durham's proposition as original-
made was brought before the
Board and after a long discussion
the following resolution was
without a dissenting vote
Mortgages In Pitt County.
Mr. C. W. Smith, a native of
Johnston county, who has a gov-
position in the indebted-
recording department, at
Washington, is now in Greenville
examining the records in the Reg-
of Deeds office to ascertain
the mortgage indebtedness of Pitt
Co. tor the past ten years. The
gathered are to be publish-
ed in the census report to be is-
sued this year. We interviewed
Mr. Smith yesterday, and asKed
how he was finding the records of
this county to show up. He said
it would be impossible for him to
tell what the indebtedness of the
county is, as he sends in a daily
record of his work to Washington
and the compilations are all made
there. He says that while he finds
the number of real estate
gages in Pitt to be quite
large, the amounts in most cases
are small. He thinks the
general showing of county will
be good. He found the records
here better kept than in any
in the State he has jet visited.
One matter to which he our
attention, and said the people
ought to be of the fact
and the habit is the
frequent negligence the part of
mortgagors in not a
mortgage when it is settled. He
the Register informed him
that as many as half of the
gages paid in the county were left
Of course the rec-
do not show this, and as he
has to be governed entirely by the
records as he finds them, the in-
of the county will
pear larger than it really is be-
cause of this failure to cancel
many mortgages. This statement
of the Register was a surprise to
us, not because we did not know
that mortgages sometimes went
but because it shows
such a negligent slackness in doing
business on the part of those
persons holding and giving
gages. The of -a
mortgage should be a matter of
business as well as the registering
of it, and it is not following the
line of strict business to leave
them It not only
shows u bad for the county, but
this negligence may eventually
bring; trouble and cause loss to
parties interested. The
hopes there will be a speedy
reformation along this line. Mr.
Smith has promised to give us
what information he can the
work in this county is completed.
It will take him until about the
first of April to get through.
being very few. They are nearly
all agreed that the exodus has had
little or no effect upon
for the next crop; that those
already gone can hardly be missed
and there is still plenty of
in the Eastern counties; that
should the exodus stop now it
would be beneficial all around;
that politically it will help the
Democratic party; and that the
permanent effect will be for the
best.

Questions upon the Exodus.
Recently the Raleigh State

farmers in those counties of the
Eastern section of the State which
were most effected by the exodus

The questions were five in number

her book of engagements filled out often
weeks and even months ahead, and it
must be consulted before a new engage-

is soon in the black boobs of the artist.
She must wide-awake and strong, and
have nerve enough to stand immovable
in the most trying positions, though the
limbs ache and the head seems splitting
with pain. There can lie no theater and
midnight supper for the model, or long
lean sleep in early morning.
