By the close of this season ‘the Greenville tobacco market will have sold nearly twice as much tobacco as ALL ACQUITTED. | “sehen ne The Jury Returns a Verdict of *‘Not Guilty” for the Kinston Incen- ‘diaries. On Wednesday afternoon, of last week Redmond Joyner, Bob Williams, Ross Joyner, J.B. Colie’ and B. N, of setting fire to the stables of B. N. Fields were arraigned before Lenoir | 9% county Superior Court on the charge Pe it ever hasin any one year before, and as much as any other eastern market. Next year we expect to lead. While in Danville and Lynchburg a few weeks ago I met with several exporters who were very much inter- ested in Greenville. I was asked the question by some of them what induce- ment would be offered them to come to Greenville and locate a stemmery here. ‘Fhese people mean_ business. They expect to come to eastern North Carolina, and say. they prefer Green- villeto any of the other eastern mar ple of Greenville desire them as much as some other places. These stemmer- ies work quite a number of hands and all of their money would be spent among the merchants here. Before the beginning of the next tobacco year expect some of you will have an opportunity to show whether you want them or not. From farmers in every section of the eastern country I have inquired diligently as to the probable acreage that will be planted in tobacco this year. From the information gained from this source I amled to the con- clusion that in Pitt county there will be no increase at all in the acreage over last year.. In most sections of the county: there will be a decrease, and I have found a strong disposition on the part of the large planters to curtail the crop considerably this year, while the smaller planters, from 4 to 10 wcres, will plant about the same as last year. |From Greene county the reports are conflieting, some contend.ng that there will be a heavy increase while the more conservative claim that the acre- age will on the whole be about the same as last year. Lenoir county will increase largely, so will Craven, but when it is considered that. Pitt plants nearly, if not quite, as much as all of these it will be clearly seen that on the whole, these, our principal bright to- bacco producing eastern counties, will not increase the tobacco acreage this year.

Every onee in.two or three months the secretary makes a progress through his ‘domain, which extends as far as the ex- perimental station at Bennings, near Washington, D.C., and about four miles: from what might be called his head- quarters in the Mall. As we stepped -outof the door of the agricultural build- ing Secretary Morton pointed to a ‘small brick structure to the east. “That’s where we keep our insects,” he said, “and no one need laugh at our collection. I regard it as fine an arrey of bugs as any onearth. Yes, sir,” re- marked the secretary, while his eyes twinkled, for be it known the secretary doesn’t ‘think much. of bug investiga- tions. I’ve got a bug in there that cost the government $20,000; he doesn’t look it, but he did. It’sa fact. One day an outfit of scientists started in pur- ‘suit of this bug. They ranged all over the hemisphere and stuck to his trail like. bloodhounds. They ransacked ‘| North America all the way: from the isthmus to Alaska. After the most re- markable adventures by flood and field, they treed their bug and took him a prisoner. Ie was then brought captive to Washington and he’s right there now, in that brick house, the highest- priced bug on earth. A roundup of the total expense of that one bug hunt bug. came to over $20,000. But we got the Revolting Customs of 5 of Some of the Afriean Tribes. The cannibalism of the black secret. sociéty known as the Human Leopards, in the country near Sierra Leone, dis- closed by the recent trial, brings forci- East African and the West African hab- its of eating human flesh. The Sherbro tims and afterward feasted on their flesh. The cannibalisni of the east coast is of a very different kind. The flesh of the old people—the grandfather and grandmother of a family—is dried and mixed with condiments and a por- tion of this is offered, with a dim sort of sacramental meaning, to travelers who become guests of the family. To re- fuse it would be a deadly insult. To ac- cept it is a. of our travelers in East Africa have eaten thus sacramentally of the an- cestors of some dark-skinned potentate The cannibalism of the west coast is, as has just been seen, of a more horrible kind. The Sherbro case seems to be connected with fetichism, the worst de- velopments of which are peculiar to that country; but there is a hideously genuine appetite for fresh human flesh still existing among the negroes of West Africa. This cannibalism mani- fests itself in a refinement of gluttony whicn has its mild analogy in the tastes of Europeans. Young boys are brought from the dark interior, kept in pens, fattened upon bananas and finally killed and baked, To these Thyestean feasts come not only the savage chiefs of the interior, but also, it is whispered, black merchants from the coast. Men who appear at their places of business in English territory in broadcloth anil tall hats, who ape the manners of their “There’s nothing like science,” re- marked the secretary, “or scientists to, bring some bald detail of government properly to bay. “For instance, there was Prof. Har- | rington, at one time chief of the weath- | er bureau. Ie was a scientist, and a good one, and used only scientific meth- | ods in everything to which he turned failed to send in a report for four he was in the midst of storms or calins; we couldn't hear from him. This Kaker City silence grew tedious. My first no- tice of it, however, was one morning when t received a communication from Prof. Harrington, wherein he set torth the deathlike stiliness which prevailed in the case of our Baker City man and tleman named Smith in San Francisco) be instructed to proceed to Baker City | at an expenditure not to exceed $100, and explore the observatory, as well as the man in charge, and discover the reasons of his silence. It struck meas a scientific case of going all about Robin Hood’s barn, and | remarked to the protessor after reading his recom- mendation: “+t guess we'll follow your recom- mendation after I have wired him— that is, if it should then be necessary.’ “Thereupon f took a telegraph blank and wired my tongue-tied friend at Baker City, and briefly asked why he had failed tosend the weather report for the last four days. In about an hour his reply came in. “Because the wires were down until this morning. ‘hey have just been re-_ paired.’ “That was.all he gaid, but.it was full enough for‘our purpose. Of course, we | didn’t get the information scientifical-' ly, but we got it just the same, and it. only cost 75 cents instead of $100. “Still, there is nothing like science,” continued the secretary,” only one should be mighty: careful how he fools, with it. A scientific mishap is apt to’ broaden into a disaster rapidly. Itwas only recently that some earnest French scientist imported | from Europe an in- sect called the ‘gypsy moth.’ He in- tended to cross this foreign moth with ‘some local bird of kindred feather, and, while I’m not clear as to his wtimate expectations, my impression is that he thought that this mule moth which he was after would take some teeportant part in silk culture. “So he brought a family of gypsy these interesting insects in some town in Massachusetts. He had them all locked up in a sort of a mosquito-net- This:was hanging-near an 4 bate i A ‘in order tg ive'the cape tives a chance at the fresh aif, and’a” wind came along, when the French- man’s scientific back was turned, and blew the whole business out of doors: The gypsy moths got away and since then they and their descendants have nearly eaten up every green thing in Massachusetts, except Congressman Morse.-‘I hear the moths missed him.

NORTHERN WITCHES. In Modern Times Belief in Them Hai Reen Quite Common, | So lately as the ‘middle of this century a girl of Louisburgh, near Wick, was ac- cused of being in league with the “pooers o’ mischief,” and a remedy akin to that recently practiced with such tragic results in Ireland was devised. She was placed in @ basket, lined with - shaving's of wood, which was then hung over a fire. ‘The issne in this case was not fatal, but the folk averred that she was not “half so witch-hke” after she had been singed. A hag of the northern isles was at times thought to be meta- morphosed into a porpoise, and in fair weather she would dive under and over- turn a fishing boat, against whose skip- | per she bore a grudge. On one occasion she was made to place her hand on the bodies of several men who had met | their death in such a way, and, in the ' words of the old chronicler, one “bled pt, the collir bane,” another “in the “hands and fingers, gushitig ont blud thairat, to the great admiratione of the ; beholders and revelation of the judg- ment of the Almychtie.” | A host of stories tell of northern 'witches who have given diseases to | horses,‘ oxen and flocks of moorland sheep, Herdsmen to this day distrust / unknown. persons who touch the food of their kye, lest it be poisoned. In Shetland the cat or vaneja is regarded as an animal which brings good luck; nust there is sure to be a good catch. In Chaithness, on the contrary, witches frequently appear in the form of cats. A carpenter of Scrabster in the olden times was systematically robbed of his} | meal and cakes. He thought it “cu’na be,cannie,” and one night as he watched he saw a number of cats devouring his property.
