One of the cheekiest things going is that the fellows who tried to wreck the Atlantic North Carolina rail- road with the receivership snag, now want the state to pay their lawyer and other expenses. New York is giving the best of her as Democratic dates this year. The bench of that state has furnished a candidate for president and one for governor. Both of them will be elected. Raleigh and Greensboro are both up In arms against the disreputable women that infest those cities.

Japan may be finally overwhelmed with the great number of Russia's forces, but we hope to the contrary. Charlotte has made an innovation that ought to be given hand throughout tho state, especially in every town where there is an opera house. The manager of the academy of music, the leading play house in that city, has announced that here- after no one will be ushered to their seats after the curtain rises and the play is going on. Late comers are given seats on the back rows. The greatest nuisance about theaters is those persons who wait so late to go that they disturb others who have gone to their seats in time and are trying to enjoy the play.
