t i. t y 8 : v b! b' Si a:.'? 4i bo j ii CHILDREN VISIT JAMESTOWN. The i:iositioti As een ll mitli from Kaiill)h other l'iul of Interest. In answer to the letter puldished two weeks m.jo from one of our youthful readers. The Conner lias received the following interesting description of the visit to lames town by Colo;: u:iu Ottis O-liorne, of Worthville: Orn : r"ini.:. We -jw vour :-i the CoiiriiT ami take great plerc-n: i:i n-pon Hiil; to it in our lecbl" mum or. I; iuite dillicult f.w little folks to tell :i it tiifv see let alone writine i'. Wc will try to ilt .iir I test, hoping, if uol writ't n -o you can 11:1 ler-tand it, that ymi will take the effort lor the deed. W't let: Millliir.. Tue-day, .lime ISlh, feeling .way as ymi inifijht expect two boys, of our si.-.e joiiiLt to as bin a tliinjj as the Jan itsur.i. 11 r'ApoMtion. We changed ears at 1 irreiisliuro, after which we travelled 011 at a jTLttv rapid rate -it seemed so to us as wc had never been on a fast train before We arrived at liichmon d about 4:.'0 p. in. Our sis was there t meet us, and we must say that we felt pretty trood to know we had somebody to take us m charge and make the rest of the journey with us. We stopped over in Richmond to -ee some of the places of interest . The very lirst tiling that at tracted our attention was the heavily loaded wagons, Kadi one had enough on it for there such wagons. I'roin the Southern depot wc went to the post otlice which is a very lurge stone building. From there we went to Capital Square and played with the squirrels, which roam at will over the grounds: :hey are wry tame and will eat from ai:y stranp'r's hand. Wj also visited the tapitol building which we thought very fine indeed. As ymi enter the capitol from the south side the lirst thinn to meet your eyes is a marble statue of Washington. Sis ter told us that it is a wonderful piece of work and told us w ho did it, seme French man, but don't ask his name please. At the far etid o." the main hall is a museum which is very iiitercstinu. There are two lare eases there containing the old Confederate flags, lately returned to the South. These flags were taken from th Southern soldiers during the 1 ivil war. And by the way, sis ter told usa very interesting story connected with these flag's. At one time these Hags were ni-ed the Southern penple and a Mis sissippi t::an wrote a - Let me o ask what 1 Want to -ay ( yes, w role a parady on the Conquered Banner. The poem is 1 ailed "Let Th'-m Keep Them.'' Well, our sis had the pleasure of nieetiti"; thi- man, Mr la -MarFont.iine, and he recited the poem for her. He told her that he was a sharp shooter and Lis tlt'htiiiu'in.itto was ''Kill a man a liiiuu'.e." At someplace during the Civil war he k.ile.lilll 1111 n in one hour, besides killing sharpshooter on the I'uion side, ilr. Fotraiue is akin io I'atuck Henry, who -aid '' i.y me lilierty or give me death,'' and J is' think we went to the hnreh were Henry : i.reivd th words, over one hun dred years n,r, We went up in tin- oh-ei vatoi of lilt City Hotel and got a iod view ol 'the city, lines th;:! is what yon would call a hirdeye view. This winds up the first afternoon. The r. : day we went to the Catholic Cath edral, whosn beauty and s.leiidor we cannot les. -j i c. so will tell 1.1I the next place of in ter t which is Monumental Ave. At the head of tins avenue is the monument of .Jeff Davis, which was unveiled during the Hid Soldiers 1,'euiiioii. This is the hilliesi place yet. Ti.er" are no vaults built upon the ground km all in the hillside. We visited the graves oi Presidents Monroe and Taylor, also Jefferson havis. Fit.. Lee and Mauicy's. Xow tor our trip to Jamestown. Wc look the train at the C. ,V ti. depot and what spoils -o erious to us. wc went up stairs to get ..j; .;:. train. lur train was up high and we stayed high some distance It was sever al minutes before we got 01 the ground 3 gain. When we reached Xepmt News we took a ferryboat to the F.xpo-itioti grounds We were about twenty-live or thirty min utes gen.;, over to Fine Beach 1'ier. at w hich place wo took an electric oar out to Ocean icw, where we made our stopping place while we visited the Exposition. Ilight here we don't know just how to start oft. The "Exposition grounds is a pretty good sized 'world with a wire feme around it. It is pretty tiresome going to a fair; we got rnighty tired several times, and water never was so good before All over the grounds ire glats water tanks containing ice water. These tanks are operated by ieniiies. You slide a penny into an opening just big enough .'or it, tur:i a w heel and you have one glass t water measured out to you. I'nless you turn quickly yon lose your leuny and have to put in another We drank so much that it became v ry amusing to sis, and she said she uas going to .strap a keg full around our rieck nest time we started out. Don't guess -die will though: she would not want 11s 1 ok ng like St. lienard dogs would she? About the first thing that attracted our at tention '.is a tiny locomotive, pulling a train ..f five ra-s as small according as the engine llui-sr engine was about I feet high, smoke stack included. The engineer did his T.vr. tirirg. The engine made a terrible .'io:si but no smoke. It was run for the pur ose ! advertising the I'ocohontas coal. A ride around the grounds on this toy train ousts 1 ' c!-. They have a balloon there to send ' up who wish to got nearer Heavi !,. Wc saw a father and -on get in and go ..p. and the la-t we saw of I hem they weie v ry high up, limiting around in the air.

Two of the:u were cut in Iwo parts, so you can see the in sidp as well as outside. A very interesting diiug in this building is the sub .marine mines, thai are used so much in war time. There is a man there to txplain all about it. They had quite any army of wax figures dressed np to represent generals, officers of different ranks and soldiers. The horses and mules were not made of wax. They had the real skin on them and looked as natural as the live animal, and were harnessed and hitched to the canons and supply wagons just ready for a long march. Some of the gut here are too large for little boys to descrilte, j s . we will pass on to the Slates' Exhibit j Palace. In this building every slate is sup I posed to have u display. Some ol the states have none, liesidos we don't remember all we j did see. North Carolina's is as good as any; really shows more different products thin any 'other one State. The house, which serves as an -.llice forthe manager, is covered over with hemp, lirst, 011 that are panels of tobacco, corn stalks split and put on, ears of corn cut in parts and put on in dillcrent de signs. In lact there is u panel for nearly everv kind of grain grown in the tate. The house is covered with shucks and the tine ol corn stalks California had a huge ele phant made of English walnuts. Kentucky, a cabin built of balls of hemp, covered with the hemp libre, ready for use. j If von will excuse' us for I he present, we will tell you more in next week's Courier. Yours most respectfully. Colon si Orris Osnonsi:, Worthville, X. C. WHAT SHALL I DO FOR MY DAUGHTER. A i.M.d College Induration lor the far mer c;irl is HetUr Than Much Money ami Safe Securities. This .juestiou has often come up aud woriied you, brother Fatuier. Aud it will keep ou comiug uutil it is auswered; aud the auswer is not always easy. The boy cau knock along some how. lint the girl? It she is left without parents or other protectors, without money and with out education, her outlook is not hopeful. We venture to suggest that the best possible pivvisiou for her would be . good college education. You niav be able to leave her finan cially independent. Very well. But money alone cannot make one inde pendent. It will not admit her to the station in life that you would like her to occupy. Nor will she be likelv to marry a desirable man if wealth is her' only asset. When I the right kind ot man starts a-lnint- ing for a wife, he wants to find a i woman first, and not a bank account. ! So the girl with money and nothing lelse is apt to get an animal in trousers instead of a husband. And possibly, also, the bank account may dwindle and vaui h before the wife hunter cjines in sight. But the chances are that you will not be able to have your girl linan cially independent. According to the old saying, "Fools for luck and poor folks" for children" and the av erage farm house is apt to be well stocked with offspring. So the aver age farmer is doing well if he can leave his children a thousand dollars apiece. lint a thousand doliars invested in safe securities would just about pay for the girl's cloaks and hats and shoes. She would have to "skirmish" for the rest of her raiment aud rations. And what can si.e do without an education to earn these things? She must stick to the cook stove, or tin wash tub. or the hoe handle, or the loom, or the spini-ing jenny, or tackle a matrimonial scrub and serve a life term at hard labor. But if you in vest a thousand dollars iu her edu cation, two results will follow: It will stay invested forever; and sec ond she will be able to earn an annual income of $300 to $r.0o and board. And if she chooses to fish in the matrimonial pond, the edu cation will prove a far better bait than the thousand dollars. And think, too, what a different sort of a housekeeper she would make and what a different kind of family she would rear. i But we have been taking the low-1 est view of your girl, namely the: animal view. We have been con-! sidenng what she shall eat aud what she shall drink, and wnerewithall she shall be clothed. Now we un derstand that your hope is to bring up not merely an animal, nut a wo- j man, a real, "tirst-class, full rounded j woman, capable of tilling any place i to which she may be called, aud lit- j ted to enjoy all the privileges that! she deserves. Is this true? Then j your lirst thought about her will not i Le money. ' You wi'l do your best on In r mind and character, and then leave her hopeful: v '.) ;o.l and the future. It. T. Vans.

Jamestown Exposition, Va, July 21. Among the thirty thousand Elks who came down from Philadelphia, July 22, to observe Elks' Day at the Jamestown Expo sition, theie will probably be no delegation that will attract more at tention than the El Paso Quien Sabe Club of Elks, of El Paso, Texas. Its inen.bers will be dressed to represent every type of the pictur esque costumes in the sister repub lie of Mexico. Agaiu the Quien Sabes will make the trip in a special tiaiu all the way from the border of sunuy Mexi co to the borders of picturesque Canada on the north, through Cana da to Niagara, and thence down south to the convention city of Brotherly Love aud on to the Jamestown Exposition. The club will also take the fa mous Guadalajara band. This is the personal band of the governor of the Mexicau state of Jalisco, G50 miles from Mexico and is tendered again to the club as ,t compliment from the big, six-foot governor. Miguel Ahuinuda. who is au honor ary member of the El Paso Elks and the only foreigner who has such distinction in the entire member ship of the order. This baud is composed of sixty-two pieces, under the leadership of Auguste Azalia. son of a noble Italian family. It will be one of the most pictur esque iiggr?gations ever sent to a national reunion of Elks, aud will be educational iu that it will correctly represent the dress of all classes of citizens of Mexico. The Mexican government would not recognize the organization and permit the use of its band if the costume weie not correct. U hen to Stop Advertising. An English Journal requested a number of its largest advertisers to give their opinions concerning the best time to stop advertising, and the following replies were received. When the population ceases to multiply and the generations that crowd ou after you aud never heard of you stop coming on. When you have convinced every body whose life will touch yours that you have better goods and low er prices than they cau get anywhere else. When you stop making fortunes right in your sight solely through the direct us-; of the mighty agent. When you forget the worus of the shrewdest and most successful men concerning the main cause of their prosperity. When younger and fresher houses in your lines quit starting up, and stop using the newspaper in telling people how much better they can do for them than you can. When you would rather have your ow n way and fall than to take ad vice and win. Early Thursday morning the home of Mrs. J. W. Lee, at Greensboro, was dts.royed by fire.

Mr. Watterson ' asserts that no man can receive the nomination without this endorse ment. John L Hare aud a Mr. Brudor were put off the A. C.
