Now the press dispatches say i that Gen, Wheeler was snubbed atCharleston in be ing purposely left out of the procession on the; ,10th. Te statements look so plain that it hardly seems to admit of doubt and still we : expect to see a satisfactory statement yet showing that Bome misunderstanding caused the mishap. Indeed we have "already seen it so stated. Surely in Charleston's good humor she would not foi any thing do so rude a thing as to fail to honor Gen. Wheeler or give the people a chance to honor him. Nor could Gen. Walker dare to do such a thing as snubb him. In the face of apparent evidence to the contrary, we beliey.e it to have been an unintentional and most Humiliating mishap. Here's one already noted since the above was written. (Genr Gordon was on horse back in the parade ) Jacksonville, Fla., May 16. A special to The TimesUn ion and Citizen from Talle hassee says . 4 'The alleged slighting of General Joseph Wheeler at Charleston on Wednesday last, is explained by Col. Fred Robinson, of the adjutant general's staff, as follows ; 'General Wheeler was not in the parade because the ne gro boy who was sent to carry his horse to him, through in attention or natural stupidity,1 carried th horse to the wrong number, and remained chere holding the horse until the procession was oyer.' " The Twin City, in excursion, via- ited the Qaeen City Tneday over tne new Mocksville and Mooresville road. Charlotte promises to pay back the visit soon and there is to be a kind of love feast b9tween these two beautiful and thriving' cities. Ic 13 pleasant to note. A Connecticut court has given a yerdidt for f 10 dam age for the life of a man killed on the railroad. There is no evidence at hand to show that it was or was not full value, but here if one is cast out and despised, if killed by any cor poration agency. such one sud denly becomes very valuable and more is collected than the savings of a life time: CONCORD AHEAD. 'he Charlotte Observer would have us believe the Charlotte people are too basy raising big strawberries to have hailstorms and boasts of berries 25 of which will fill a cuart cup. Now our neighs bor "is hopelessly left again. Beside having the beggest haii and the most of it Concord is ill' i I . jwaV ahead on strawberries. IMrl W G Boshamer brought The Standard man a (mart brae this morning that was heaped up full with 22 berries. jCwenty filled the crate as full as ould bo for shipping. We laid them in a quart cup and again found it heapect with ! 1 1 : ! i the 22. Our neighbor must scuttle through some new by path if she wants to head off 6onUrd i hat terrible consequences hang in the scale of fate, and often, of course, by an over ruling Omnipotent hand are brought out to harmless se quences, was illustrated last Saturday on the train from C )lumbia to Savannah. At Stillwell the pipe that re pleniphes the tender with water from the tank was left hang ng down. Engineer Bell came J along with a train load of people from Charleston. He was leaning out of the window,-with one hand on the throttle. His head struck the .11 pipe aud he was killed in stantly, . .Th train ran seven miles wih its human freight with a dead hand only with which to meet whatever exigencies that nlight be presented. Fors tunately nothing of further calamity occurred. MR 11 A Kill V vOitttECTIOX. Wje inaert a very appnciible ars tide? from the pen of Mr. J S Har. ris, of R ooresville, that would have appearec la8t week had the editor not been! awy . M . Harris notes our mistake in the i ee (of the name Gen. Meade wher we meant Gen. Hooker. It was the veriest slip of the pen and not fro mi jack of clear knowledge of the f ict I The humiliating mistake was i oted in the daily issue of May 4th aid appeared in the Weekly of the l'-th, which we hope Mr. Harris noted. j . : ' It teems wp were inacurate in the statement! that Gen . Longstreet had gone to Tennessee but "the point we tnat he bad been were jnaking was withuawh from Gen. Lee a army and that Gen. Hooker took it as op portm e to strike a blow. Mr. Hars ris' more minute and accurate state ment Longs of the movements of Gen. treet is so pleasin? to us that . . . . it serves to compenaate forour blun der that called for bis article. Now they say that the Amer cans have' lost knowN of the whereabouts of edge Aguinaldo. He' can probably occupy a place so small just now that it would be hard NO pURE. NO PAY. That is tte way all druggists sell Grove's tTasteless Chill Tonic for chills and ,Maarial It is simply Iron and Quinine in a tasteless form. Children love it.'. Adults refer it to bitter, nau seating Tonics. Price, 60c When Dewey Comes Bome. ; The New York World is ar ranging to have cannon simultaneously along a fired line from New York to San Fran cisco in honor of Admiral Dewey when his yessel is sighted off Fire Island. Thirtysseven stations across the continent are designated and each is to fire 21 shots, all firing jsl8 nearly at the same 1 1 time as the wire announce ments can make it. The same programme will be carried out if the vessel arrives in the nightl The World thinks the hero will arrive by July 4th, though it has been announced that the ship will come home leisurely, stopping at various places. ... ' Beats tli e Itlondllte. Mr. A C Thomas, of Marysville Tex., has found a more valuable discovery than has yet oeen made in the Klondike. For years he suf fered untold agony from consump tion, accompanied by hemorrhages; and was absolutely cured by Dr. King's New Discovery for Con sumption, Coughs "and Colds. He declares that gold is of little value in comparison with this marvelous cure; would have it,, even if it cost a hundred dollars a bottle. Asthma, Bronchitis and all throat and lung affections are positively cured by Dr. King's New Discovery for Con sumption. Trial bottles free at P h Fetzer's drug store. Regular size 50 cents and $1 00. Guaranteed to cure or price refunded. ! The C. F. & Y. V. Divided. S There has been a final dis position of the O. F. & Y. V railroad. The Southern gets the road with its branches from Sanford.Nin the northeast corner of Moore county, to its uppfr terminus at Mt. Airy, near the Virginia line, in Sur ry county, while the Wil mington & Weldon holds that part from Sanford to Wil mington', including the branch from Fayetteville to Bennetts ville, in South Carolina.

A Petticoat Achievement. . i Who Eavs that woman is not gifted with inventive genius? The Pitt woman- who converted her pet ticoat into a dip net and caught 500 fish with it, proves that woman is generally equal to the occasion. The Charlotte Observer and' the Asheville Citizen are praising mightily, the f shirt-waist and the sailor hat, and we are quite willing to endorse the .nice -things they have1 said about those nrettv and jla8teful articles of female attire, but, in view of the Pitt county woman's achievement, w want to remark that the lowly petticoat, inconspic uous tho' it be, has. demonstrated in a new way its nBefalrieS3,--Lin- mln Innvnol - ' f ' THE RACKET 1 case of White Organdie rem nants, from 1 to 8 yds, at 80c per pound.
