More Gold Here.
| A tobacco farmer hearing so much
jot the gold mines of Alaska concluded
that he would stop ta~ming and go to
tie Klondike, Not caring to start on
the trip without some surplus cash he
fixed upa small load of tobacco, and
having heard so much of the reputation
of the Eastern Warehouse he drove in
there and unloaded. After the sale
was over he came to the conclusior.
that there was more money raising
golden tobacco and selling at the Eas-
tern Warehouse than these was risking
himself in the Klonuike fields of Alas-

WEEKLY CROP BULLETIN.
For Week Ending Monday, Sept 6
jesse
The first part of the week ending
Monday, Sept. 6th, 1897, continued
very wart and dry ; scattering show"
ers, however, occarred at variors
points on the first three days of Sep-
tember, which were beveficial and
helped to mature late corn. Hail
storms, damaging crops to some ox"
tent, were reported in Warren, Halt
{ax, Henderson and Rutherford coun-
ties. ~The latter part of the week was
much cooler, Crops continae very
fine id the extreme eastern counties,
but at most points in the central and
west potions have continued to suffer
from the prevailing drought. The
week was very favorable fcr saving
fodder and picking cotton, which is
progressing rapidiy. Cotton has shed
considerably and the top crop has been
badly cut shert by ereught. ,o that,
though a considerable crop remain~ in
sight, it will tall far short of tha ex-
-peetations of a morth ago. Some
cotton is reported to be opeLing pre-
maturely. About 30 per cent of the
tobacco crop remains uncut; curing
will be finished rapidly , results very
good. Rice is ready for harvest,
Scuppernong grapes are ripening.

BaltimoreTs Population.
The annual police censas just
completed shows an increase of
4,259 voters over last year's
figures. The white voters of the
city, according to the census,
number 107,754. At the rate of
one voter to every five inhabi-
tauts Baltimore's present pop-
ulation should be 625,270. At
the same rate the incresse of
4,259 voters would also indicate

HobartTs Meanness.
Hobart isa small fellow. He has
caused Wm. Seagraves, usher at the
Erie railroad at Jersey City, to be dis-
missed. Seagraves had orde:'s not to
admit any one through the gates until
the trains were ready. Here is what
happened says an exchange :
Seagraves was at his post ~Uhursday
afternoon when a tuli, heavy man at
tempted to for¢e his way past the usher
and vhrough the gates,
oYou canTt go through there, sir,

his hand, It bore theT inscription :

I bad no authority to allow any one

oHowever, I did not think that the

poor working man and take the bread
out of the mouths of himself and family.

How can you treat me 80,
When you knew I was out here waiting
Since ages andages ago?
I really em half distracted
Twixt torture and heavenly bliss,
And all ter the sake of you, darling,
And yet you cau treat me like this.
I thought you must have forgotten ;
And seemed so careless and gay,
As you waltzed round the room with
your partners,
Without once looking this way,
You knew I was here in the darkress
Just watching for you, my light,
My star, and my beautiful sunshine,
Who can make any hour seem
bright.
You seem like a lovely fairy,
An angél, and woman 100;
There is something of earth and
heaven |
~In all that you say and uo,
While I am only human,
And it drives me wild to see
You dencing, or gaily talking
With any man except me.
Yes, I know that love is jealous,
And J love you with all my soul,
Sometimes with a heartfelt longiag
Beyond my inindTs control
And then when I see you flirting
I mean that you seem to be, "
You cannut tell how maddening
The sight of it ia to me.
So please be good to me sweetheart,
I really think you might,
When you know ~ow much I have
suffered
Out. here in the darkness to-night,
Let us walk down there in the garden
Where none but the moon can see,
I have so much to tell,
And you promised to listen to me.
Ah, now that weTre out in the moon-
light,
You seem once nore, all my own,
I wish that this were our Eden,
And that we might stay here alone.
Hark ! there is your chaperone calling,
And we must go back from our bliss,
But IT wait just as long in the dark-
ness
For another ten minutes like this.

New Enterprises.
New enterprises are always desira
ble, and every true patriotic citizen is
glad to welcome them io his or ber
town, The Winston Jonrnal makes
makes some vry pointed and sensible
remarks along this line. It at
the citizins ought to manifest an inter-
est in prospectors a.d show that they
will co-operate with them. We copy:
oAt this particular junctuve when
times are su close, the people who are
anxious that new enterprises be estab-
lished in our midst, need not expect
that a mere invitationT will bring them.
Be as solicitous and instant as you
please, but that alone will pot bring
them. ~There must be better induces
menis than that,
prospectors that atter they locate here
they will meet proper encouragement
and be accorded that spirit of co-opera-
tion expressive oi our belief that they
have come to stav, instead of mani-
festing « suspicion that they have
come merely to stay transiently, A
few plain words along this line can do
no harm and may ao much good. It
is wellto know that there are other
inviting fields and if newcomers do nov
meet with proper encouragement they
will nt hesitate to prk up and go
somewhere else. We need not think
that new enterprises will build them-
selves up in a day and no longer need
Ye must cunvince
our co-operation. It we labor under)
any euch idea as that, we will soon find
it a great, big delusicn, Tt we want
new enterprises let us go to work and
help to bring them here, and let us
not forget to support them atter we get
