Most of the REFLECTOR roosters are
ick and unable to be airing themselves,
but the two little fellows above say they
are going to crow oyer the fact that in
three townships in Pitt county"Caro-
lina, Chicod and Contentnea"the
Democrats elected their candidates for
Constables Magistrates. The
county also honored itself in giving 791
majority for that peerless man, William
the man whom we
and
Jennings Bryan,
ove as well in defeat as if a crown of
victory rested upon kis brow, and in
giving a majority, even though if was
only 76, for Cyrus B. Watson.
The Democratic party isnot dead.

A SARD ROM EX-SENATOR
JARVIS:
GREENVILLE, N. C.,Nov. 6, 1896.
To Tue Pusric :"Sometime
September KingTs Weekly, a paper
published at this place, contained an
attack on Mr. Harry Skinner in which
my name was ilogically and offensively
in
used as a Witness against hi.
not the first time my name had been
used in that paper in a manner offensive |:
tu me, I fut paid no attention to it and
would not now if the matter involved
The statement in the
certain sharges) tuat oGovernor
Jarvis is now in the western part of the
State and says these things are true and
the half has not been told.� If it was
meant to charge that I had discussed
these things in public the charge is un-
true. It itis mennt to say that I had
discussed them in private, if true, 1t was
gross violation of confidence to give it
out ivr publication, but as a matter of
fact, ic is not true that I have used the
language attributed to me in referenve
to Mr. Skinner, It is well known that
I have assisted in the adjustment ot
some of kis financial matters and it may
be that in talking about his indebted-
ness to sme individual creditor I may
have said that is not half of his indebt-
edness; but 1 emphatically deny that ii
have ever discussed Mr. SkinnerTs af-
fairs in the manner or in the spirit al-
leged in said article.
LUCAS AND SKINNER AT GREENVILLE.
When I was engaged in my canvass
in the western part of the State I read
a telegram from Greenville published
in the daily papers purporting to give
an accou:t of an incident� between Mr,
Livas and Mr, Skinner in their jecint
discussion at Greenville. The telegram
made Mr. ~Lueas say, oI have been told
h re today that Gov. Jarvis ~said he
heard Skinner lobbying i inT Washington
in tavor ot a bill to pay clerks a salary
of $100 a month the year through ; and
voted against ~the bill.� I have quefa
from the telegram and I say that I have
never, made guch'a statement: to uny
one. I never heard, Mr. Skinner lobby
for such a bil. T never heard nun re~
quest ~any ong. to vote tor it oA in any"

Ld
ot Representatives last spring when the
bill referred to was under consideration.
I was in conversation with Skinner
and two or three other members of the
House when something was said tbout
the matter underdiseussion. Mr. Skin-
ner remarked that he wanted to see the
* , A ~ad
bill pass byt that he could not vote for
it; and some of the other gentlemen
said the same thing. In a short time
thereafter I was sitting with my back
towards the membersT seats diseutsing
with a gentlemin from the West the
probeble outcome of the Chicago Con-
vention, when I heard a familiar voice
vt the floor speaking, and faising up
and looking in the direction of the voice
1 saw Mr. Skinner on the floor making
a speech against the bill. 1 have joked
Mr. Skinner himself about speaking
against a bill which he wished to see
passed. J have also state? these
facts to and laugred about them with
those with whom I am in the habit of
assoviating in Greenville, but it never
occurred to me tbat any one would use
them in a pélitical discussion. Nor
could I have possibly imagined that sny
man who Sane to a seat in Congress
could so far forget the common pro-
prie ties of life as to make use on the
stump of a private conversatiun as:
ecuming from me without first getting
from me the facts and my permission
to use my name in connection there-
with. When I read the1 report of the
discussion I felt indignant at Mr. LucasT
conduct and I 80 wrote him. I trust
he may be able to say if was thought-
lessly and uot deliberately done. I
make these statements ot facts because
I feel that those who desire to know
the truth of the matter may do so; and
because I will not allow the course and
vrutal language reporte d to have been
used by Mr. Skinner on the occasion
reverred to prevent me from doing him
justice in the matter.

A Shrewd Fruit Dealer, taken mere
An ingenious device for attracting
custom was that of a fruiterer ina
midland town. Instead of ordinary
plate glass a large number of rough
magnifying glasses formed the win-
~dow. Seen through one of these
panes, an orange looked as large as
4 pumpkin, and cherries as large as
apples. A great disadvantage attach-
dng to this novelty was the fact that
at the distance of a few yards from
~the window it was quite impossible
to see into the shop. Everybody
knows that you must hold a magni-
fying glass very close to the eyes to
see. anything through it. Neverthe-
less, for some time, at all events,
the enterprising shopkeeper did a
splendid trade."Liver Bee. Mercury.

Thus gas is a
name that has never been explained
beyond the mere statement that it
was invented by a Belgian chomisi
named Van Helmont. Guesses nave

to him, but he gave no information
as to its source, but merely wrote
in Latin, oThis vapor hitherto .un.

tories.
Certain snakes are called adders.
Is it not acurious fact that tho name
adder originated simply through er.
roneous understanding of sound?
Tho Anglc-Saxon word was naedre,
and the German is natter. Addex
comes froin misunderstanding a nad.
{der as an adder, and the Century
Dictionary says that apron, anger,
orange and umpire arose through a
similar mistako.
Just opposite to this peculiay
change from nadder to adder is that
which gives us the name rewt for
what used to be an ewt.
Acommon saying is that a sur.
prised person is taken aback. This
is said to have originated from, the
same expression used nautically. as
in saying that sails aro taken abask
when they are driven by the winds
back agah ft the mast, - Probably it
would be hard to prove that either
of the sayings had its origin in the
other, for they both use the word
aback in its literal sense"backward.,
Aback and similar words disclose a
gurious fact in their etymology"
namely, that the first syllable 1s
merely a letter that stands for ths
original Anglo-Saxon word on,
which meant not only what our pros.

sccord.=z ts circumstances.
Accord, concord and discord come
from what ssems 4 queer thing tc
suggest such words for the sense in
which they have always been used.
In each the second syllable is from
the Latin word for heart. Accord
in its elements means ~~to tba heart.�
Real agreement or harmony mus.
have been considered so sweet and
so rare that the only fitting name
for it must contain thut of the heart
as the seat of human affection.
Caprice and capricious seem to
arise from the fact that people could
find no better comparison for cer-
tain actions than the capering of a
goat. The etymology of these words
that connects them with the Latin
word for goat is. questioned by the
doubt that caper is from that Latin
word.
Pilgrims were so called for a very
queer reason, and the word was
made ina queer way. They walked
through the land, and as this was
suggested the name for them, which
is made from the Latin words per,
meaning through, and: ager, mean-
ing land."Philadelphia Times.

The total number of distinct
words in the New Testament, ex-
~oluding proper names and their de-
rivatives, is 4,829. The vocabulary
of the Old Testamont is much larger.
According to GesininTs oLexicon,�
the Old Testament contéins 5,816
distinct words, not counting proper
names .and obsolete roots. A few
comparisons with the above may
not prove uninteresting. The ~~T)-
iadT? and the ~~Odyssey�T together
contain 9,011 distinct words. Milton
used 9,028 different words and forms
of expression in his entire works,
and Shakespeare, the peer of all lan-
guage twisters, used over 15,000, or
one-third more than was used by all
the writers of both the Old and New
Testaments."St. Louis Republic.

Handsome materials and fashionable
fabrics will be difficult to obtain this sea-
son, for the reason that importation are
much below the average, particularily in
fine silks and dress fabrics, and the Amer-
ican manufacturers have been obliged to
curtail their productions.
Keach department of our business is ful-
ly prepared to show the newest and cor-
rect meterials, styles and colorings for fall
and winter, and we strongly recommend an
early examination of the yarious depart-

the intention of dividing it between

Whenthe motion wes put it was
lost, whereupon Murphy tendered his
resignation. The Board then elected
J. L. Daniel to till the place.
Another matter discussed by the
Board waste discovery of such errorg
in the town tax list, which was com-|
piled by Fd. Johnson, colored, al
for which he has already been paid, as
to necessitate a revision of the list.
W. F. Ormond was chosen to do the |
work of revision.
As the minds of the people will now

Tho gh the result is not what we
hoped, we are glad the election is over.
