Mrs;; Frederick Baker, of New York has given $3,000 to equip Commons Hall, dt the University, and to provide board at cost for stu dents. The hall will be opened next September with accommodations for 200, and the. charge will be $8 per .month, which is hoped will be re duced .to $6 after a while.' There will be twenty student waiters, who will get board for their services.. ... . The Mason farm,, of 1. coo acres, located one I and one half miles from the university and recently bequeath ed to it by Rev. and Mrs. J. P. Ma son, will be used as a poultry, dairy, stock and truck farm, to supply the table in Commons Hall. ; President Winston says that Com mons Hall j will have Western beef daily, and the best food in the State by the best cooks.- ! ' This is a cgreat thing for;the Uni versity, and- a great thing for the hundreds of needy boys in North Carolina who are eager to go to col lege, but lack means. , Mexican Jury Syt?m The Detroit Free Press remarks, if the Democratic bank goes into the free silver business it will need a Teller. It will need a receiver. ' The annual report of the ' New York Cotton Exchange shows that the sales for future delivery in the year ending April 30th, amounted 54,690,000 bales, against 32,110,000 in the previous year, and sales of spot cotton to 343,000 bales, against 254,000 bales a year ago. DK3IOCRATS OK WHAT? Don't go too fast- The Demo cratic National Convention will as semble on the 7th of July, to formu late a creed and nominate a candi date for President. Don't be rash jri your utterances. It is your con vention which ;s to assemble in Chi cago. Let usj go there, resolved to ; stand by its action. '! V CAX'T liE KKLIEU UPON. No man can be relied upon who hasn't the courage to express his convictions, and the rule can be ap plied in all spheres of life without fear of contradiction. ftlr. Foraker, who assumes, to be close to Major McKinley, says the candidate for the Presidency from Ohio is for bimetallism, and yet when McKinley himself is questioned on the subject he gives the same old answer, "I have nothing to say." If it is a fact that he is in favor of bimetallism, for free silver, or trie sin gle gold standard, why does he not meet the issue like a man and say so? TJie people have a right to know where he stands, and if he really has any convictions on the subject the country insists that he make them known. Of course no one believes that he is absolutely without opinions in the matter, and it is because of this belief that the country has begun to feel that he cannot be relied upon. What a sad commentary it is lo be sure that such a man is the possible nominee for the suffrages of the American people "for the highest of fice within their gift. The Democratiq county conven tion whigh met at Tarboro on Tues day, endorsed Dr. jW. P. Mercer for Congress. Nominated Henry John son, of Tarboro, for State Senator, and Major S. L. Hart, Penelo, and David E" Cobb, Mill Creek, for the lower house. The present incum bents, W. L. Knight and B. F. Daw son were nominated for sheriff, and Register of Deeds, and S. S. Nash for Treasurer. George Howard, Jr., J. L. Howard and ). B. Bradley were nominated for county trustees. The convention endorsed free sil ver, but rejected a resolution, pledg- 'i '.' . 1 ' ing the? convention to vote; only fdr free silverites. The convention was a harmonious one and there is no doubt but that their work will bring forth good fruit. 'The men nominated are first class and should win witn- "hands down" next November. Argonaut. jMexico has an .ingenious plan for facilitating verdicts in jury trials. Two supernumerary jurors are drawn to sit near the jury box and listen to the evidence and arguments. If any ql the regular jury falls ill or is other wise disqualified from going on, one of j the "supes" takes his place. In this way they avoid what is often seen in American courts a long trial rendered useless when it is nearly finished by' sudden illness or death of one juror. .' . G orn and re- ' ' - I Deafness Cannot Cured i by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one Way to, cure Deaf ness, and u that is j by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed ypu have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed Peafness is the re sult, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will, be destroyed forever ; nine cases out of ten are caused by jcatarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the muctms surfaces!

In the first place, the man who stands a good chance of molding the destiny of 70,000,000 people lives in a frame house, for which he pays $40 a month rent. He keeps two serv ants. One of them cooks and washes; and does other work, and the other sweeps the house, lanswers the door bell and waits on Mrs. McKinley, who is an invalid. "Pitchfork" Tillman Coming to the Convention. Omens were plentiful enough al ready that the Chicago convention is to be animated, if not, indeed; violent. Anything lacking to eager expectan cy is furnished in the election of Till man, of South Carolina as the leader of its delegation to Chicago. L The platform upon which Tillman is coming contains various unsound and offensive ideas, but not one of them is as offensive or unsound as Tillman himself. His presence here will render prudent the attendance not only of an ample body of police to protect the right s of his fellow Democrats at Tillman's hands, but The major blacks his own shoes and shaves himself ev ery morning at 7 rj'clock. His wife loves flowers, and in the rustle bustle of getting a grip on the nomination the. major finds time every morning to put on a linen duster and an old straw hat and go put into the yard and attend to the flowers. Even the most pretentious could not dignify the' McKinley "garden by the high sounding title of grounds. The yard has a frontage of seventy-five and a depth of 1 50 feet. . j Te house, with its porches, is about forty feet wide, and that doesn't leave much room on either side. Louisville Times.

The Editor not a Moial Monitor. There are many people who be lieve it the duty of an editor of a newspaper to try. to punish and ex pose those who, in their opinion, do not conduct themselves DroDerlv. 1 ...' When they see the law violated, they are too cowardly, frequently, to them selves lodge the complaint before the proper legal authorities, but at once rush to the editor, and demand that he shall become the judge, jury and executioner tb punish misdeeds of which they complain. Then there are fellows who, when they have a griev ance or spite against anybody, try to use the editor to ventilate their ill humor and punish their enemy. What a poor idea they must have of the editor, when they think he is anxious and willing to do theindirty work for them !
