The pripiriituns go actively on. The Naval tiu-eau has contracted for 4,500,000 pounds of brown pow der, probably the largest single order for powdtr ever let. It wi'l make a. Eupply ot 200 pounds for every guu etloit iu our navy. Negotiations are aiill on for two more fine bittleships, the San Mar tino belonging to Argentine Repub lic and the Gerurat O'Higgins, be longing to Chili. A rush order his been received at the Newport, R. I , torpedo station for a full supply of torped.es, beside a number of buoyant death -dealing mines that are intended to be placed iu port entrances. These are to be submerged under the' surface and equipped with elec'.ric connections with the shore and are of such force as tD b ow the litest ship out of the wa'er. A dispatch from Newport News savs that dipt Wiley, of the wreck ing tuj Underwriter, that has tewed the derrick, Ciitf, to Ilavana, says .hat he dees not believe that any body knows j ist how the unfortu nate aSliir occurred and that to bis mind the evidences are that it was an-exp'oiion from within and thinks that if the Maine had' nut with the same thing in the port nf an entirely friendly na'ion th ie would not have risen a question of ext rnal means.

As some will have already no ticed, No. 11, the south bonnd train that is"-due bere at 10.20 in tbe morning, does not come thee days until about ten minutes after 11 'iTclock. Thin is due to the fact that it does not lenve Haliebury until after the Wec'ern paeng'T truin comps. No. 11 leaves Salisbury at 10.30. This change, is not certain to hap pen every day, as there has no such chango in the schedule been made, but it is thought that the schedule will soon be changed to thateflact.

Toe Patterson Manufacturing Co. has made considerable changes in their machinery' in the lust two months. Formerly the steam And water power were geared to the same line shaft: They bave changed that now, each power having its own line shaft. They are connected by belts, which can be thrown off or on in a minute, which is a won derful improvement on the original ;jlai. The position of all the machinery in the mill (except the Hjdnning framns) has been changed. The nsw machino that the com ranv ordered has arrived, and ie being put iu place. The tuperin tendent thinks that he will have everything in ruLning order by the -S.h, inst., which we hope is correct, for we, who live in this community, want to hear the whis tie and the hum of the machinery again. The company has ginned for the community 220 bales of cotton great amount of which was bought by the company, and manufactured into yarn. The plan on which the einisrunis the best that we have ever been acquainted with, and hope the same plan will be contin ued from year to year. It has always been thought that this section of the county ia un healthy, but from an actual real dence in the community for 7 or years, we are compelled to say that we have as good health as any other section. The death rate ot our lit. t'.e town proves the truthfullness of the above assertion only one death and that of an infant. The tendency to vice in our town is not near as great as in the larger towns. We have no club roomB for the married men to spend their evenings, consequently they stay at home with their wives, where they ought to be, neither have we any bowling alley for the young men to learn the art of gambling.

Stanly Litthia Miller, tbj fi year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thomae Miller, of Foreat Hill, ia kfllioted with diphtheria. Rather a strange th'ng waa found out over at Buffalo Mills Saturday night, and which s very probably breaking np of some blind tiger butinesa that is going on. Saturday rjght the people were surprised by vonng man, who looked to be aboet twenty-two yiara of age, fiiiog a pis tol on Buffalo areet. In a few miuutes Policeman Williams atd Mr. IIislop followed the g ntleman until he was quite a distance away. Nothing more was tbonght of tbe matter until Snnday morning Mr J L Cress, one cf the cperatives, found a fiycgallon keg of whiskey near tbe place where they had seen their yotin man. It is now sup posed that this was a whiskey seller and that bis pistol shot was nothing more than a signal to big customers. When we were told of this affair and that they haf found the fie gallon keg cf whiskey we begg--d to ask one more q ns ion, and tnat was what tbey had doue with tbe con tents of the ke . None at all, we find, waa saved for preserving pur poses, but the entire con'.enta was poured out on the ground. TWO RUNAWAY COUPLES.

That all that glitters is not from tbe Klondike ia shown by a letter to a member of the Oiti.-u staff from ElFBaird, of Asheville, who re cently went to Seattle wi'h the pur pose of making that city his h'mie. M r. Haird says : ''Toere is one thing I oan say with great sincerity, and that s the Klondike txeiiement and reports are a fake, started by the'' transpor tation companies and merchants in S.-attle. It waa reported in the evening paper here today that a party bad arrived from 1 awaon with $200,000 in gold We bad the pleas are of haying an in rrview with this party, and they any the paper has exaggerated and misrepretentnd the facts. I bey say tbey have come back with some gold, but would not say how much. A vio iru of tbe Klondike landed at Skagaway a few diya ago without a dollar in his pocker. The transportation coin nany offered to giye him free passage to Seattle provided be would sub stantiate tbe report they would make about him in the paper. lie agreed to do this, and it waa reported in tbe papers that he brought back $15, 000. So you see you can't believe everything you s-e in thepspsrs. "W A Boyce, after investigating the matter, has decided not to go to K ondike.
