seen in the last census reports.
Our town of Cartel sville was
named for old Sam Carter, who
raised so many oata so many
that he couldn't find room
enough in his field to shock 'em
all after he had cut 'em and
had to shock about half in an
other field, and so when a fellow
has got a heap of anything ha
says he's got as many as Carter
has oats. What a pity we
couldn't take down a slice of
our rivers andet those Atlanta
people see what a river is, and
if we could only transplant one
of our magnificent springs that
come gushing from the rocks in
silver streams biff enooeh to
turn a mill. It is right pitiful
to see those Atlanta people
prancing and dancing around
that little Tonce de Leon that
is about big enough to water
the chickens in,' ani yet they
call it a spring. Oh. my. I wish
we could take down one of our
mountains and some of the
life triviug atmosphere, that
surrounds it from base to pen
nacle. But it is a blesssd thing
that such things can't be moved
otherwise we would have lost
everthing when Sherman's bum
mers went through. But we
are not vain. We are only con
tent with our county and what
God has given her. As Daniel
Webster said about Masschus
etts, "there she is look at her."
We could have made ' a bigger
spread but our county com
missioners got scared and
wouldn't give us a dollar to
work with. They said they
were afraid somebody would
find out what we had ' and
swindle us out of it. But look
at Floyd and Whitfield and
Polk and Talbot and Jones and
Troup and many others that
arenearlyas good as Bartow
It is enough to make a Georgian
proud.
At 12 o'clock I took a seat on
the grand stand to see the
Indians and cowboys perform.
I didn't expect much, but I say
now that for two hpurs I wit
nessed the1 best show 1 ever
saw in my life. The circus
won't compare with it. It is a
show of such natural distances
and. those Indians can be seen
hiding in ambush half a mile
away and when they come dash
ing down upon an emigrant
train and yell aud shoot, and
ride around with tnelr Uudlbs
on the sides of their horses and
the poor surprised emigrants
get behind their wagons and
horses and fire back, and one
ets killed and two or three
Indians bite the dust, and just
in the nick of time the cowboys
come dashing down like a
whirlwind and fire and yell,
aud the fight get thick and -hot,
it just makes the turkey bumps
rise all over a fellows back and
I got excited and wanted to lift
up my voice I did. The cow
boys ran those Indians half a
mile, and then guarded the
emigrants to a place of safety
and carried the little children
on their horses. They took up
the dead man and laid him
across the 3addle, and rode be
hind to steady him and his
head- and Ms long hair hung
down on one side and his feet
on the other, just as natural as
life, as they passed the grand
stand. And then in anotheri
scene the Indians attacked the
Deadwood stage an old-fashioned,
sure enough stage that
was fuUof-passengers and
guardeTTTJy twox well armed
horsemen, and than the firing
and the fighting was terrific
and some were wounded and
some killed. I never saw such
riding as those 'cowboys did
They can beat the Indians
-Their Bmall. wiry and tireless
mustang3 can run like the wind
and seem to enjoy the per
formance. The cowboys got
after a horsethief "and ran him
all around the race track and
across the middle, and fired at
him every jump, and he fired
back, and finally a cowboy jerk
ed s lasso from his saddle and
serft it flying tnroagn tne air
and curled it over the thief's
neck while he was at full speed
and he jerked him from his
horse to the ground. They
jumped down and fastened
the rope around his wrists and
remounted and dragged that
poor fellow on his abdominal
for a quarter of a mile at lull
speed, and then put a rope
around his neck and hung him
up to a crossbar on a telegraph
pole and shot him all to pieces
while he was hanging ten feet
in the air, and wa saw nim kick
his last kick and after a while
the sheriff and the coroner came
along and cut him down and
laid his carcass on aJiorse and
brought him by the grandstand
and he was the worst looking
spectacle I ever saw. He was
torn all to doll rags. I think
his front clothes must have
been made of leather or raw
hide or boards or sheet-iron or
something, or his abdom'nals
couldn't have stood it. Then
there was a pretty Indian 'girl
who had four cowboys 'for
lovers, and she promised i to
wed the one who could catch
her. She was a good rider and
had a fast horse, 'and she had
a hundred yards the start and
away they went on the wiugs
of the wind. It was nip and
tuck for awhile, but they gain
ed on her, and the best looking
cowboy finally was side ty side
with her and Jlif ted her from
her horse as they; ran and rode
with her in his arms and soon
distanced all his rivals. We
all just shouted and waved our
hats and cred bully for you
and we wanted to get a pair of
marriage license and a preacher
and have them joined on the
spot. Those cowboys are just
splendid. At full speed they
can pick a silver dollar out of
the dust and they can lasso a
running horse by his head or
his heels 'or his nose and stop
him instantly. They would
catch a wild steer with a lariat
and throw him, and let him up
and ride him as he cavorted
and plunged away in his fright.
They had some wild, unbroken
mustangs that bucked fearfully
and blindfolded them, and two
men held one with a rope
while another saddled him, and
just ab the blind was removed
thecowboy was on. his back
without a bridle, and I never
conceived that it was possible
for a horse to bounce so high
and squat so low and cut up
such fantastic tricks and
plunge and run so fearfully,and
and all the time the cowboy
never held on to anything but
folded his arms and just let the
mustang do his do until he
wore himself out . and quit.
Surely, surely there must have
been somo cuckleburrs under
that saddle. I
Well, it was a good show,
and I'm going to take the chil
dren down next Saturday and
give them one happy day. The
managers ought to give the
school children one i Saturday
and the railroadsought to car
ry them there for a cent a mile
and back homefor nothing. , I
think we can get up 200 from
our town on those terms. We
are all living for the children
anyhow, and it is right good
living. Bill Arp.
P. S. We want two hundred
dollars more for the soldiers'
graves. We want one good
man or woman in every town
to go round and get up' five or
ten dollars, Rev. Mr. Keese
did that in Lumpkin, and it
didn't take half an hour. We
are for marble now and every

The Sampson County Alli
ance has put a movement on
foot to start a canning factory
in its county. This is : a good
plan, for by this means thous
ands of dollars will be saved to
the farmers each year by mark
eting their fruits that would
otherwise rot in the orchards.
It seems to be a freak of hu
man weakness for people to
love to be humbugged by
strangers. There is something
facinating In it. They are
generally made to believe that
by investing one dollar tiny
can get two, and it is not very
difficult for the stranger, who
is skilled in the humbug busi
ness to make them believe it.

into something stupendous.
Its dimensions cannot be con

the farmers of the country. Its
powers cannot be despised be
cause it is the consolidation in

Not What it Was-
A well-known gentleman, re
cently deceased, one day relat
ed the following incident i
"I was standing in my street
door raisins my umbrella and
just about to issue forth on im
portant business into the midst
of a sudden and heavy fall of
rain. An old lady at that mo
ment passed along the pave
ment quite unprotected from
the drenching rain. I im
mediately sprang out and offer
ed her the shelter of my um
brella and to accompany her to
her residence. She courteously
accepted the service. Having
arrived at her home, which
was near the president's house,
after a most agreeable conver
sation along the way, I had
bidden her adieu and turned to
depart, when she said, with all
the sweet politeness of olden
times : 'To whom am I indebt
ed for this great kindness ?' 'My
name,' I replied, 'is Burr Ana
mine,' she added emotion ov
erpowering her almost to faint
ing 'is Hamilton.' I had un
knowingly escorted the widow
of Alexander Hamilton, oui
first secretary of the treasury,
who was slain in a duel by one
whose name I unfortunately
bear.'

MANURING FALL SOWN GRAIN.
Experience, both in this
country and in England, has
shown that it is better to make
two applications of manure to
winter grain, one at time of
sowing and one as a top dress
ing in spring, than to apply all
at once in seeking time. Es
pecially is this true when com
mercial fertilizers are used.

a thing not to be desired as

winter, a steady but moderate
growth is desired. Plants need
some help to give them suffici

make them sappy. A Bmall

Tha Grinding ilsnopolies
The monopolies continue

work. A Maine man waB
allowed 77 by .x railroad com
pany to recompense him for a
lost trunk, and as they were
ony of the humiliated Highlanders
there. The town of the settlement
w8 named Catnpbellton after the
Campbells who bad come with tbe
colony. It was here that tbe fa
mous Flora McDonald came in
1775. Whether it was her influence.
Culloden, or their innate dislike to
their Irish neighbor, who were in
veterate Wblgs, that caused the
Highlanders to espouse the British
sine, is not stated, but after thirty
years of exile from bonny Scot
land's "banks and braes" we find
them enrolled among King George's
active supporters. Nor bad they
lost their peculiar traits of charac
ter and manner of conducting war
o graphically descilbed in Scott's
Hob lioy.
In 1775 an organization known
as "The Association" was formed
throughout the United States for
the purpose of throwing off tbe
British yoke.
Joshua Hadley, the eldest son of
Thomas Hadley, joined the "As
sociation" and as soon as hostilities
were declared was appointed Cap
tain of a company to hunt the To
ries, in bis section chiefly Scotch
men, who were biding in tbe
swamps to avoid taking arms
against tbe British ' crown. This
aroused tbe iuexorajble hatred of
these fierce foes and from that
time forth tbe Uadleys were in
constant danger. Afterwards
Joshua enlisted in tbe regular
army aa ensign under Gen. Nb
and fought nnder him at Brandy
wine and Qei mantown. After Gen.
Nash was killed at tbe latter battle
bis brigade was re-organized and
the supernumerary officers, among
tbem Joshua Uadlev. were sent
back to North Carolina, where
their services were more needed.
After bis return be helped to dis
cipline tbe militia, and commanded
a company at tbe battle of Cane
Creek that rendered valuable aid.
Simon Uadlev, bis brother, was
captain ot a company that made
itself very obnoxions to tbe Scotch
in its efforts to enforce tbe enact
ments of the North Carolina Aa
nembly that met in Halifax in 1777.
These enactments required every
person in the State, except tbe
Quakers, to support the patriots
sougut more peaceful . place' o!
abode, and but few w.-re left on the
banks of the Cipe Fear.
