Old Sol in Eclipse.
The eclipse of the sun Monday
morning overshadowed everything
else in Goldsboro. Hundreds of peo
ple had gotten their smoked glasses
ready and were out in their piazzas,
yards and in the streets taking a peep
at the wonderful phenomenon.
Through smoked glass the first
seen of the beginning of the eclipse
was a few minutes before' 8 o'clock.
At first only a small portion of the
sun was obscured. This continued
until S:4'J o'clock it was at its great
est obscuration. The period of the
greatest obscuration here did not
last more than a minute. The sun
appeared as a narrow rim. In the
north-east duriug the time of the
greatest obscuritr could be seen a
very bright star.
The effect was a wiered one even
here, where the ecliDse was not en-
tircly total. Where the best views
could be obtained such as just below
Raleigh, at Wadesboro and other
places near the center of the path,
the scene must have been almost in
describable. The light presented a
strange aspect when a person looked
at objects around them. At no time
are to be.duriuir the DroL'ress of the ecl'mse
was the darkness greater than an
early dusk. It was necessary to
light lamps indoors in many build
ings, however.
During the eclipse persons who
placed their hands between their
faces and the ground saw the bones
of the hand, even the metacarpal
bones, outlined on the ground pre
cisely as shown by X rays. Strange
to say, the shadow appeared to be
round and not flat. The dew fall
A "-
sight many have ever witnessed, or
perhaps will ever see again iH a life
time. There was a total eclipse of
the sun in that a few of us have
a little recollection of.

Weekly Crop I'ulletiu.
The characteristic feature of the
weather during the week ending
Monda3, May 28, and the only un
favorable one, was the continuously
low temperature which prevailed,
both during the days and during
the nights. The maximum did not
exceed 80 degrees until Sunday,
27th. Although the deficiency in
temperature averaged less than 2
degress daily, the effect was unfavor
able; the growth of crops was more
or less checked, and cotton was con
siderably damaged, some turning
yellow, and some dying on very
light sandy soil. The cool, moist
weather also favored the depreda
tions of cut and bud worms in corn.
While the early part of the week
was dr3r, favorable showers occurred
on the 23d and 24th in the west, and
on the 23th and 2Gth in the east.
Crops were refreshed, and the soil
was put in excellent condition for
working. On the whole farm work
progressed favorably during the
week; crops have been fairly well
cultivated, and grass and weeds are
under control. The season of plant
ing is nearly over and harvest is ap
proaching.
Planting corn and cotton are
practically completed. Late planted
corn was well brought up by recent
rains, and all corn is doing fairly
well, but the stand is not very good
especially in the western district;
the crop has been much damaged re
cently by cut worms. Corn in the
south and east is already quite high,
and in the west has generally re
ceived its first cultivation. Cotton
has suffered much from the low tem
peratures; although sh .. ers brought
up late planted seeds, further
growth will be very slow until the
weather becomes much warmer.
Chopping cotton is making rapid
progress. Notwithstanding the
backwardness of the crop the stand
good, and considering the in
creased acreage successful results
are probable. The bulk of the to
bacco crop was transplanted during
the favorable showers of the past
two weeks, and a good stand has
been secured, but the crop planted
is small. There is some complaint
of damage by flea-bugs and grass
hoppers.
Peanuts and rice are doing well.
Very man' sweet potato slips were
set during the week, and have star
ted into vigorous growth. Irish po
tatoes are very fine and are now in
bloom; damage by potato bugs is in
creasing, but can bo checked by trie
liberal use of paris green; wheat and
oats are ripening and the harvest
will soon begin; the heads of wheat
are well filled and promise a large
yield; both winter and spring oats
are inferior. Although fruit is
dropping considerably, especially
apples, and of late, peaches, this in
effect is but a natural method of
thinning the fruit, and, as artificial
thinning does, will improve the
quality of the fruit remaining, of
which there is still every prospect
of an abundant yield.

A Hermit's Secret.
Anderson Collins, white, a squat
ter v ho for jears has held possess-
sion of Mountain Island, in French
Broad river, near Asheville, against
all comers, and who has been gener
ally regarded as of unsound mind,
is a prisoner at Marshall. His pecu
liar conduct was tolerated until re
centlj7, when a fisherman reported
having seen a woman on the island,
the sides of which are steep and
rocky, though the interior is covered
with a dense growth of trees. It
was surmised that the woman was
a prisoner. Collins was decoyed
to Hot Springs by a ruse, while the
island was searched. The woman
was found, as were also two children
one of three years, the other-of as
many mouths, both stark naked.
They were living in a hut as rude as
that of a savage. The woman ap
peared dazed. She gave her name
as Alice Gunter and said her home
was in Tennessee. It is believed
that Collins abducted her and has
kept her prisoner for years. She
and the children were removed.
Collins will be sent to the hospital
for the insane.
A Romance iu Real Life.
About a year ago one of Gray's
Creek's (Cumberland county) most
popular young ladies, answered the
advertisement of a young man in
California, who stated he would like
to marry a Tar Heel girl. They be
gan a correspondence which con
tinued up to two months ago, when
the young man made the journey
across the continent and unexpected
ly made his appearance at the girl's
home. The young lady was thought
to be on the point of death from
pneumonia, but she rallied, and the
Californian remained through her
long ilness and convalescei. ;e. A few
days ago when she got well enough
to see him, they became engaged,
and when he returns from a business
trip South, on which he started
Monda', they are to be married.
Another in t iresting circumstance in
the case is tnat the young man's
father was born in Fayetteville, and
is now a physician in Massachusetts.

A Tragedy Instead of a Wedding.
Monday morning about 11:30
o clock a Mr. Gleaton rode out to the
home of his sweetheart, a Miss
Raines, about eight miles from Cor-
dele, Ga., accompanied by a friend,
intending to have a wedding. When
they arrived at the home of the
young lady she joined them, but her
father interfered and tried to induce
her not to leave him.
One word brought on another, and
finally a quarrel was on. The young
lady's brother rushed up with his
pistol and commenced to shoot at
Gleaton and Gleaton's friend. Glea
ton drew his pistol and shot the
young lady 's father, killing him in
stantly. He then shot the brother.
By this time a friend of the Raines
family rushed up to try to stop the
trouble and was himself shot down.
Gleaton then drove away, returning
to his home, and the young lady
went into her house.
Since then the brother has died.
The friend of the Raines family is be
lieved to be mortally wounded and
the friend of Gleaton is in a critical
condition. The situation at last re
ports was as follows: The young
lady's father and brother are dead
and the friends of the opposite par
ties are expected to die.
The initials of he parties could
not be given. They were all planters
and are prominent in their communi
ties. The killing caused a profound
sensation and threw the entire coun
try into a state of mourning.

In the Selection of a Wife.
The old-time Puritans, who merit
admiration despite their strictness,
had these quaint rules for the selec
tion of a wife:
"A good wife should be like three
things, which three things she should
not be like. She should be like a
snail, to keep within her house; but
should not be like a snail to carry all
she has on her back. She should
be like an echo, to answer when she
is called; but she should not be like
an echo, always to have the last word.
She should be like a town clock, al
ways keeping time with regularity;
but she should not be like a town
clock, speaking so loud as to be
heard over all the town."
Women to be Aldenueu.
A bill has just been passed by the
British House of Commons making
women eligible for election as Alder
men and Councilors in the London
boroughs. Being taxpayers they
ought, it is held, to have a voice in
the expenditure of taxes. At pres
ent men alone elect officials who vote
away women's property as well as
men's, and that sort of thing is re
garded as unjust. The Conservative
party, now in power, is somewhat
radical on the question of the politi
cal rights of woman, regarding her
as naturally conservative and likely
to act with them. Women do not as a
rule take kindly to new political the
ories such as those of Radicals and
Socialists.
