If it exists hereabouts, it exists elsewhere.—In London it is rather good form to be rude. Berlin long since discovered that an ounce of insolence is worth a pound of Oflendorf. In Paris politeness is an extra that is charged in the bill. Even in Madrid, where highwaymen still address their prey as Your Grace, even there, court esy is otherwise scanty. Rudeness is not, therefore, a cisat lantic monopoly. In the savannahs, in the sierras, along the bayous, far ther yet, in the pampas of the Argen tine, and the glittering peace of the Cordileras, occasionally there may be the gleam of quick knives, there is al so occassional civility. That is not all. In New York, Chi cago, San Francisco, the floorwalkers of the department stores are models of the most perfect deportment. Then, also, in the Tombs recently, a colored felon, apparently black as the ace of spades, yet who, none the less, had been taken red handed, referred to a fellow felon, blacker if possible, and more red-handed than he, as “the other gentleman.” Courtesy could gone farther. “The republican party stands for something,” ejaculates a contemporary of that political persuasion. Sure! It Y/as because of what the republican party did stand for something like half a century that the people of thirf country finally made up their minds to stand no longer for the republican party. Had One Reeemblano«. On« night, In a Texas town, John McCullough's company was pUylnf “Ingomar,” and young Sotbem wa« to be th« l«ader of the barbarian army. During the day he and hia oompML- lons-ln-arms ransacked the town for fur coverings in which to appear on the staga. They secured soma skint frhich had been Imperfectly cured. I& the gcen« where the barbarians rushed on McCullough tha tragediaa itood aghast and almost forgot hit dnes. When the curtain fell be tnnbad 10 the fur-covered battalion and said: *Boya, you don’t look like a barbarian irmy, but I’m d d If yon don’t qnell like one.” $500,000 In fiends A resolution was introduced in the Senate at Raleigh by Senator Long for four per cent State bonds to meet $500,000 of the deficit caused by the expenditure of that amount in round figures for permanent improvements at the State institutions and $75,000 for equipping and heating the new State building and an amornt necessary for rear-ranging the old Supreme Court building for other State depart ments and to provide for covering into the State Treasury the $217,000 stand-1 ing to the credit of the Peritentiary. | Cowardice In Congress They express surprise in Washing ton because the bill passed both houses of Congress to prevent shipments of liquor into prohibition States is not yet ready for the President’s signa ture. Through what is called “a par liamentary error” it is improperly de signated. It pissed the House under one number. It passed the Senate under another. Therefore it fails. If this measure were honestly sup ported by anybody save the few pro hibitionists in Congress the peculiar mistade which will kill it for this ses sion might be der lored, but it hiS no such honest support. It has been vot ed for in both branches of Congress by a great crowd of members who are oppo.»ed to it on principle and whose only excuse is that by appearing to fa/or it, without actually accomplish ing anything, they may save them selves trouble at home. A cowardly, hypocritical Congress man is the most contemptible product of a self-governing people.—New York World. The house, while having the satis faction of denouncing Editor Johnson, of Charity and Children, fell fai short of the mark they intended, for had no notice been taken of the incident only a limited number of the people would have known about it. The house has advertised what Charity and Children had to say about the members in a effective way. — Greensboro News. Inaugural Parade. The military feature of the inaugur al parade practically has been com pleted, according to the announcement by Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood, grand marshaL Present figures indicate that there will be nearly 25,000 soldiers and sailors from the regular and State militia services in line. Robert N. Harper, chairman of the civic organizations committee, told the Inaugural committee that at least 15,- 000 marchers would be in his section of the parade. This will be composed of political clubs and old organizations of a semi-political nature. In this sec tion also will be the Governors and their staffs from States that will not be represented by militia. Governors of at least 20 States are expected to be in the line of march. Newbern Ladies Help (From The Journal.) That the ladies of Newbem are in terested in the development of the city is shown by the activity they will take in the coming gigantic member ship campaign to be launched Tuesday night by the Chamber of Commerce. The City Beautiful Club will serve free luncheons to old and new mem bers of the Chamber of Commerce in the store under the James Hotel on Wednesday and Thursday nights. Every member of the City Beautiful Club has been asked to help serve these luncheons. ^ Less than three weeks until the de mocrats assume charge of the govern ment The wait has been weary, but the paity has at last come into its own. Police graft to the extent of $2 500,- 000 annually in New York is the es timate of District Attorney Whitman. And he seems to be about to locate the final destination of every dollar of it, which is the saying clause.

Holmes-W arren Co. Mebane, N. C. JS Source of the Brahmaputra. For 40 years the birthplace of the eat Brahmaputra river of India wat [bought to be among the high valleys >f the eastern Himalayas or on the Plateau of Tibet north of those moun tains. The theory^ could not be proved, for hostile Abors In the Himap ayan valleys killed the explorers or )arred their way when they sought to lolve the mystery. It was believ^ 20 years ago that {he Sangpo river, flowing far eaatward through southern Tibet, was the upper ^art of the Brahmaputra. Marked iogs set afloat in the Sangpop were iratched for in the Brahmaputra, but fere never found. At last, however, the explorers sent out with the troopa who have punished the Abhors for ihelr massacre ioi Williamson and hit too carriers have shown that the two rivers are identical. The Brahmapu- 3'a rises far west near the headwa- iera of the Indus, among the mMm- Ains bordering southern Tibet. Appeal of the Afflicted. It was Walter’s first visit to church, and he tried hard to remember all the varied Instructions he had received, such as not whispering, keeping his head bowed during the prayer, etc. But during the main petition of the aervice nature won a complete battle over memory and decorum. "Mother,” shrilled the weary youngster, “when will it be time for me to straighten my neck? It’s like to break if 1 don't do it soon!" Forte. It was tLt> most exciting moment ol one of those midnight rehearsals. Try as he would, Donald Brian, the aotor, could not Induce the orchestra to play sufficiently loud for a smashing finale, Finally in desperation he called out to the orchestra conductor: "Swelll Vicars, Swell!” Whereat the phleff* matio, unruffled English conductor stopped the band, turned smilingly to i Mr. Brian and said: “Thank 70a, alR** Hardware! - Hardware!

If this great army of office seekers would turn as much energy into farm ing this year as they are expending in attempts to land jobs the harvest would be the moat abundant this coun try ever witnessed. Qiaciara Caused by Milky Way- Another suggested cause of gUicial periods is that they have been d';o to Uie shifting of the milky way, such as la known to have occurred. Assuming that much of the ea"' •• ^ heat comes from the stars, Dr. Euuolf Spitaler finds that the changc of tion in relation to the milky might have given a different distri?)^ tion of temperature ^tom that exisiing at the present time.
