JOYNER.<lb /><lb />~<lb />There is not as heavy preparations<lb />as a general thing, among the farmers<lb />for a large tobacco crop this year as<lb />usual.<lb /><lb />By the close of this season ~the<lb />Greenville tobacco market will have<lb />sold nearly twice as much tobacco as<lb /><lb />ALL ACQUITTED. |<lb /><lb />osehen ne<lb /><lb />The Jury Returns a Verdict of *~Not<lb />Guilty� for the Kinston Incen-<lb />~diaries.<lb /><lb />On Wednesday afternoon, of last<lb />week Redmond Joyner, Bob Williams,<lb />Ross Joyner, J.B.

N.<lb /><lb />Fields were arraigned before Lenoir | 9%<lb />county Superior Court on the charge Pe<lb /><lb />it ever hasin any one year before, and<lb />as much as any other eastern market.<lb />Next year we expect to lead.<lb /><lb />While in Danville and Lynchburg a<lb />few weeks ago I met with several<lb />exporters who were very much inter-<lb />ested in Greenville. I was asked the<lb />question by some of them what induce-<lb />ment would be offered them to come to<lb />Greenville and locate a stemmery<lb />here. ~Fhese people mean_ business.<lb />They expect to come to eastern North<lb />Carolina, and say. they prefer Green-<lb />villeto any of the other eastern mar<lb /><lb />ple of Greenville desire them as much<lb />as some other places. These stemmer-<lb />ies work quite a number of hands and<lb />all of their money would be spent<lb />among the merchants here. Before<lb />the beginning of the next tobacco year<lb />expect some of you will have an<lb />opportunity to show whether you want<lb />them or not.<lb /><lb />From farmers in every section of<lb />the eastern country I have inquired<lb />diligently as to the probable acreage<lb />that will be planted in tobacco this<lb />year. From the information gained<lb />from this source I amled to the con-<lb />clusion that in Pitt county there will be<lb />no increase at all in the acreage over<lb />last year.. In most sections of the<lb />county: there will be a decrease, and I<lb />have found a strong disposition on the<lb />part of the large planters to curtail the<lb />crop considerably this year, while the<lb />smaller planters, from 4 to 10 wcres,<lb />will plant about the same as last year.<lb />|From Greene county the reports are<lb />conflieting, some contend.ng that there<lb />will be a heavy increase while the<lb />more conservative claim that the acre-<lb />age will on the whole be about the<lb />same as last year. Lenoir county will<lb />increase largely, so will Craven, but<lb />when it is considered that. Pitt plants<lb />nearly, if not quite, as much as all of<lb />these it will be clearly seen that on the<lb />whole, these, our principal bright to-<lb />bacco producing eastern counties, will<lb />not increase the tobacco acreage this<lb />year.<lb /><lb />IN NORTH CAROLINA.<lb /><lb />arene era i<lb /><lb />Matters of Interest Over the State.<lb /><lb />~ Four young men in Union county<lb />stole chickens ofor fanT. and got in<lb /><lb />jail. tae<lb /><lb />a<lb /><lb />The Times says two men were lodg-<lb />ed in jajl at Jefferson, Ashe county,<lb />for mening the owhistle off a steam<lb />engine.�<lb /><lb />Judge R.

As we stepped<lb />-outof the door of the agricultural build-<lb />ing Secretary Morton pointed to a<lb />~small brick structure to the east.<lb />oThatTs where we keep our insects,�<lb />he said, oand no one need laugh at our<lb />collection. I regard it as fine an arrey<lb />of bugs as any onearth. Yes, sir,� re-<lb />marked the secretary, while his eyes<lb />twinkled, for be it known the secretary<lb />doesnTt ~think much. of bug investiga-<lb />tions. ITve got a bug in there that cost<lb />the government $20,000; he doesnTt<lb />look it, but he did. ItTsa fact. One day<lb />an outfit of scientists started in pur-<lb />~suit of this bug. They ranged all over<lb />the hemisphere and stuck to his trail<lb />like. bloodhounds. They ransacked<lb /><lb />~| North America all the way: from the<lb /><lb />isthmus to Alaska. After the most re-<lb />markable adventures by flood and field,<lb />they treed their bug and took him a<lb />prisoner. Ie was then brought captive<lb />to Washington and heTs right there<lb />now, in that brick house, the highest-<lb />priced bug on earth. A roundup of the<lb />total expense of that one bug hunt<lb /><lb />bug.<lb /><lb />came to over $20,000.

The Sherbro<lb /><lb />tims and afterward feasted on their<lb />flesh. The cannibalisni of the east<lb />coast is of a very different kind. The<lb />flesh of the old people"the grandfather<lb />and grandmother of a family"is dried<lb />and mixed with condiments and a por-<lb />tion of this is offered, with a dim sort of<lb />sacramental meaning, to travelers who<lb />become guests of the family. To re-<lb />fuse it would be a deadly insult. To ac-<lb />cept it is a.<lb /><lb />of our travelers in East Africa have<lb />eaten thus sacramentally of the an-<lb />cestors of some dark-skinned potentate<lb /><lb />The cannibalism of the west coast is,<lb />as has just been seen, of a more horrible<lb />kind. The Sherbro case seems to be<lb />connected with fetichism, the worst de-<lb />velopments of which are peculiar to<lb />that country; but there is a hideously<lb />genuine appetite for fresh human flesh<lb />still existing among the negroes of<lb />West Africa. This cannibalism mani-<lb />fests itself in a refinement of gluttony<lb />whicn has its mild analogy in the tastes<lb />of Europeans.

Ie was a scientist, and a<lb />good one, and used only scientific meth- |<lb />ods in everything to which he turned<lb /><lb />failed to send in a report for four<lb /><lb />he was in the midst of storms or calins;<lb />we couldn't hear from him. This Kaker<lb />City silence grew tedious. My first no-<lb />tice of it, however, was one morning<lb />when t received a communication from<lb />Prof. Harrington, wherein he set torth<lb />the deathlike stiliness which prevailed<lb />in the case of our Baker City man and<lb /><lb />tleman named Smith in San Francisco)<lb />be instructed to proceed to Baker City |<lb />at an expenditure not to exceed $100,<lb />and explore the observatory, as well as<lb />the man in charge, and discover the<lb />reasons of his silence. It struck meas<lb />a scientific case of going all about<lb />Robin HoodTs barn, and | remarked to<lb />the protessor after reading his recom-<lb />mendation:<lb /><lb />o+t guess we'll follow your recom-<lb />mendation after I have wired him"<lb />that is, if it should then be necessary.T<lb /><lb />oThereupon f took a telegraph blank<lb />and wired my tongue-tied friend at<lb />Baker City, and briefly asked why he<lb />had failed tosend the weather report for<lb />the last four days. In about an hour<lb />his reply came in.<lb /><lb />oBecause the wires were down until<lb />this morning. ~hey have just been re-_<lb />paired.T<lb /><lb />oThat was.all he gaid, but.it was full<lb />enough for~our purpose. Of course, we |<lb />didnTt get the information scientifical-'<lb />ly, but we got it just the same, and it.<lb /><lb />only cost 75 cents instead of $100.<lb /><lb />oStill, there is nothing like science,�<lb />continued the secretary,� only one<lb />should be mighty: careful how he fools,<lb />with it. A scientific mishap is apt toT<lb />broaden into a disaster rapidly. Itwas<lb />only recently that some earnest French<lb />scientist imported | from Europe an in-<lb />sect called the ~gypsy moth.T He in-<lb />tended to cross this foreign moth with<lb />~some local bird of kindred feather, and,<lb />while ITm not clear as to his wtimate<lb />expectations, my impression is that he<lb />thought that this mule moth which he<lb />was after would take some teeportant<lb />part in silk culture.<lb /><lb />oSo he brought a family of gypsy<lb /><lb />these interesting insects in some town<lb /><lb />in Massachusetts.
