LITTLE Horn FOB MISS CBOPSEY.
Her Father (ilren Fubllo Utterance and
Charges Harder.
Suffolk, Va., Dec. 11. Edward
J Kelley, who some time ago
visited the Cropsey home in
Elizabeth City, aud afterward
alleged that he had information
proving that ' a girl in whose
company he was in in Norfolk
November 22 was Nell Cropsoy
and that she left by a steamer
for a Northern city, today went
to Justice Cropsey's home again.
He intimated to the family that
he kuew where Miss Cropsey
was. His presence there, in view
of the reports that have gone
out reflecting on Nell's charac
ter, was not agreeable. After
pome warm words Justice Crop
sey, among other things said
Kelley as a fake. Kelley de
nied somo of the reports which
had been credited to him. A
personal encounter was immi
nent when the police interfered.
"The citizens' committee this
evening refused to disclose -the
clue on which they base their re
liance that the mystery will
soon be solved.
Justice W P Cropsey, father
of Nellie Cropsey, tonight issued
the following signed statement :
"To the Citizens of Elizabeth City
and Pasquotank County, N. C. :
"I take this method and op
portunity of thanking the good
people of this city, county and
State for the many acts of kind
ness toward me and my family
during the recent sorrow that
has befallen us. I assure you
that we shall ever cherish these
memories and shall never forget
to remember your kind words
and tender sympathies.
"The police officials and citi
zens' committee have done all
that human agency could do to
restore my daughter, but with
out success.' I never expect to
see her this side of the great
eternity. I shall always believe
that James Wilcox was instru
mental in my daughter's disap
pearance and if she is dead I be
lieve that his hand or the hand
of his hireling is responsible for
her death. Sometime when this
life shall cease we shall stand
before ihe presence of the Great
Judge and at that time I believe
that we shall learn how and when
he murdered my daughter and
the justice that he may escape
here will be dealt to him there.
(Signed) "W H Cropsey.

In Straits for Coal Can.
A Knoxville, Ten., dispatch of
the 11th says: "The coal car
shortage, together with a notice
from the Southern Railway that
it will confiscate coal for its use,
threatens grave danger to indus

on Coal Creek aud Jelhco for
their supplies. So serious is the
coal shortage becoming that tex

Meet Vexations Calmly
When things go wrong with
you in the home, when you feel
ready to sit down and "have a
good cry," because, perhaps, the
temperature of the oven has
been loo great, and your loaves,
that should have come out browr.
and crisp and toothsome, look
like burnt cinders, resist the
temptation to give way to yout
feelings. The enemy has come
in on you like a flood, it is true;
but are you, in the strength of
your womanhood, and the con
sciousness of your power over
circumstances, going to lose
your self control, to allow an ac
cident that will havo completely
pas-sed from your mind tomor
row to make you miserable and
unhappy today, even for an
hour ? It ie by calmly meeting
these small vexations that we are
strengthened to overcome in thp
more serious battles of life. Ex.
Incentive to School Attendance.
The constitutional amendment
is prdving a great incentive to
attendance in the public schools.
With better arranged districts,
better hou. es and bettor teach
ers there will be no trouble
about the attendance. A com
pulsory attendance law would be
the greatest blunder that could
possibly 'be made in regard to
removing illiteracy from the
State. It would be as dismal a
failure as the silver issue, , the
Senatorial primary and the otVier
new things introduced ascurers
of all ills. -Ii would introduce an
inquisitorial system that would
ruin the schools and warrant
open rebellion. The Democratic

tints.
The Raleigh correspondent to
tne tjnariotte Ubserver of the
12th gives the findings of State
Entomologist Franklin Sherman
Jr., on the Amos Owens cheiry
tree enterprise.
- Tt. has VtaAn eiiat-toMA) tViat
. - - vwum WU.JSVV7U VUni
there is something fraudulent
aoout tne ousmess ana Mr. tner
man went on the grounds and
investigated till he is thoroughly
convinced that it is a fraud not
withstanding some agents have
received their pay. It is known
that many have not. "
We clip the following from his
report to Commissioner S L Pat
terson of the commission con
troling crop pests.
"The main evidences of fraud
brought out by the investigation
are as follows.
1. Non-payment of agents. 2.
The inferior quality and grading
of trees. .8. The false statements
of employes regardiug the source
of trees. 4. The false claims
made by the company in
its circulars. 5. The frequency
with which the ownership
of the concern has changed
hands. 6. The direct fraudulent
dealings of the company in pur
chasing trees from distant
sources (Mitchell county), aud
having such trees shipped under
the label "Amos Owen Chorrv
Trees."
RECOMMENDATIONS.
After carefully weighing the
facts, I am moved to make the
following recommendations:
1. The absolute withdrawal of
the certificate now in use by the
company. '
2. The notification of the Post
master General at Washington
that the company has been founa
fraudulent with request that a
fraud order be issued for the
following postoffices : Forest
City, Elleuboro, Caroleen, Hen
rietta and Rutherfordton.
3. ;The notification of station
agents at the following points
that the company cannot legally
ship stuck: Caroleen, Henrietta,
Forest City, Bostic, Rutherford
ton, Mooresboro, Lattimore and
Shelby.
4. The publication of a con
densed account of the findings in
every daily and weekly paper in
North Carolina, aud in the lead,
ing papers of Atlanta, Columbia,
Charleston, Norfolk and Rich
mond, with request that the item
be published for four consecutive
issues, if same can be done with
out charge.
5. The publication of an ac
count of this affair as soon as
possible in the bulletin of the
North Carolina Department of
Agriculture.
6.. The submission to the Gov
ernor of the facts in the case, in
order that he may act according
to his best judgement.
7. The posting of notice of the
fraud in the postoffices of Forest
Uity, Hillenboro, (Jaroleenl , lien
rietta and Rutherfordton.- .
CONCLUSION.
It is my opinion that no -effort
should be spared to mak the
fraud known to every person.
The fraud has been practiced al
most exclusively upon women
and girls, mostly of the poorer
classes, it seems to me tnat the
men who have ooen the guilty
parties should receive all the
odium accumulating from, their
fraudulent acts.
As it is likely that those who
have had this company in charge
will be sued, it is my opinion
that the crop pest commission
should do all that it can to aid
the aggrieved parties in bring
ing the defrauders to justice.
Very respectfully submitted,
Fkanklin Sherman, Jr.,
Entomologist.

8CHLEY COURT FI5DTSUS. ,
lake Report to SeereUrr Loaf Twelve
Counts Against the Admiral Praised
for His Bravery at Santiago Battle
Admiral Dewey Exhoneratef Him
from Blame.
The Schley court of inquiry
has made its report. . It finds
twelve counts against the Admi
ral at to movements etc., but
gives him due credit for valor at
the great battle. The whole re
port is lengthy and appreciable,
chiefly to the naval men.
The opinions are given below
which show clearly that Admi
ral Dewey was in the minority.
He would gladly have acquitted
the Admiral of all the charges.
Admirals' Benton and Ramsey
adjudged bim guilty on the twelve
counts. ,
The following are the opinions
of the ' court as a majority
and Admiral Dewey's opin
ion as an individual, though,
signed officially as the other.
"OPIKIOIf.
"Commodore Schley, in com
mand of the flying squadron,
should have proceeded with the
utmost dispatch off , Cienfugos
and should have maintained a
close blockade of that port.
"He should have endeavored
on May 23, at Cienfugos, to ob
tain information, regarding the
Spanish squadron by communi
cating with the insurgents at ihe
place designated in the memo
randum delivered to him at 8:15 1
a. m, of that date.
"He should have proceeded
from Cienfugos to Santiago de
Cuba with all dispatch, and
shoujd have disposed of his ves
sels with a view of intercepting
the enemy in ny attempt to pass
the flying squadron.
"He should not have delayed
the squadron for the Eagle.
"He should not have made the
retrograde turn westward with
his squadron.
"He should have promptly
obeyed the Navy Department's
order of May 2fj. ,
"He should have endeavored
to capture or destroy the Span
ish vessels' at anchor near the
entrance of Santiago harbor on
May 9 and 30.
"He did not do his utmost
with the force under bis com
mand, to capture or destroy the
Colon and other vessels of the
enemy which he attacked on
May 81.
"By commencing the engage
ment on July 8 with the port
battery, and turning the Brook
lyn around with port helm, Cpm
mdore Schley caused hei to
lose distance and position with
the Spanish vessels, especially
with ihe Viscaya and Colon..
"The tnrn of the Brooklyn to
starboard was made to avoid
gettin r into dangerous proximity
to the . Spanish vessels. The
turn wa made toward the Texas
and caused that yessol to stop
and to back her engines to avoid
possible collision.- -
"Admiral Schley did injustice
to Lieutenant Commander A C
Hodgson in publishing only a
portion of the correspondence
which passed between them.
"Commodore' Schley's conduct
in connection with the events of
the Santiago campaign prior to
June 1, 1898, was characterized
by a'vacillation, dilatoriness and
lack of enterprise.
"His official reports regarding
the coal supply and the coaling
facilities of the flying squadron
were iuaccurate and misleading.
"liis'conduct during the battle
of July 3 was self -possessed and
he encouraged, in his own per
son, his suborbinat officers and
men to fight courageously, . -
