Work would bIio not do well to weigh and itHmsnrestrwtlv hi r capacity, oppor tunity, need, and bo relatively sure of all ?" inquires Mrs. A. I). T. Whitney in September Ladies Home Journal. "Are yon capable, in nnv marked and special degree. for one particular mirauit and UBc i! Is it rk'ht and feasible, in the ap parent providential ordering, that you should take time and money to tit and equip yonrselt tor it, and then can you reasonably expect chance and scope to do your chosen errand ? Is there need of others to meet, need of your own to supply ? Answer truly. Do not rceolve to be this or that because you think it a pretty th'ng to be, or because some one else 1;;18 succeeded in it. It may have been her work, and yet not lie yours. A younir girl once wrote me, 'I have set my heart on being an authoress. If I cannot bo one my life will be a failure.' Her letter, and the specimens of author ship inclosed, were themselves argu ment for, at least, very patient study and practice. Sho needed, also, to live longer and deeper before she would hud a tnic inissage to deliver, I told her so, in the solicited answer, I tell them so ; for this was only one appeal of many. To you others, who only have a little more time than money, and would like some th'ng to busy you and help fill your portemonuaie, there are dmerent things to 8dy. Compare your need with that of others before voii take up occupation that nuv be their livelihood. To intrude into a crowded rank of workers only to add a pleasure or an eleganco to your comforts would be extremest fracture of the eighth command ment. Forbearance from this might leave many a chance open to real necestity which now is barred, or neutralized by cheapening competi tion. Make conscience of this, as you would inako conscience against robbery direct." . How a Drummer Sees It. Mr. Chas. A. Gotten), southern representative for a Western drug Louse and an old Washington news paper correspondent, is stopping at the Central. Mr. Cotterill still clings to newspaper work and is one of silver's many converts, lie has been from one end ot this (State to the other and has discussed tinance with many merchants, doctors and men in other walks of life. A News reporter asked him this morning his views as to the outlook. "In my travels over North Caro lina," said he, "1 have found that the one topic of discussion is the money question. I hear it talked in private homes, hotels, on the etree's, and in (act everywhere and by everybody. There is not the slightest doubt in my mind but that the silver sentiment in this State is gaining ground, and very rapidly too. In returning to places previous ly visited by me, I found that many who had entertained strong sound money views had accorded the matter a second thought and given themselves over to the silver cause. "At one time it looked as though those Democrats who were dissatis fied with the Chicago platform and who threatened to remain away from the polls and thereby reduce the chances of Democratic success, would stand firm in their determina tion, but they are speedily coming round and on election day will be numbered among the w-orkers for their standard bearers. "The impression prevails abroad that North Carolina is one of the doubtful States and that only an ollicial count of the ballots cast on election day will disclose her posi tion on the money question, it is my opinion, based on my observa tions after extended travel over the State, that there should be no doubt as to where North Csrolitia stands. The majority of t eople are for silver. Charlotte News. Think It Over.

The Ninth district populists do clino to make any nomination or endorsement for congress, but refer the matter to their committee. A destructive wind and rain storm visited Mt. Holly, Friday evening. The Methodist church was almost totally demolished. There is a peach treo at Mr. Wil liam Master' that is in bloom the second time this year. It has al ready borne one crop of peaches this se'tson. Elkin Times. The Goldsboro Argus says that a new cotton gin is being erected in Goldsboro by which seed cotton can be taken from a wagon by ma chinery and buled in fifteen minutes. The members of tho l'iptist hurch met Saturday night and called Rev. W K. llradmw to the pastorate of the church for another Pi ar. A wise "election. hikin lines. The directors of the iiisiineasylum at Kaleigh have decided to build an annex for tho main department to contain eighty rooms.

A report comes from that part of Cowan, commonly called the "Hocks" that savors of Wild West or dark African barbarism. Two ii vines have been conducting re ligious services at I'hamiel church and the story goes that on Wednes day night the band of woishippers was disturbed hy the npperance of crowd of rowdies who, it seems, were determined to break up the meeting, kocks and missiles were thrown at the church and the rowdies growing more desperate began firing pistols though the windows. Ono of the bullets lodged in the pulpit within a few feet of the reverend gentlemen. What ' ho final result of the toughs' raid upon the worshippers was, was not learn ed by our informant. Salisbury World. A Change in Politics. Wc have attended three political conventions in the county of Guil ford in three weeks, and from what we saw and heard there 'u evidently a change for the better. In putting every man in nomination, if ho had any Christian character it was made very prominent and strongly em phasized. The time ie coming and is near by when Christian character will be demanded of tlmsa who ask for the suffrages of tho Christian voters of this country. And when we reach this point and out men in oflice because they are honest and capable; instead of those men being put in by the rum power, then it will make but little difference what party is in the lead. Christian men in authority will cause this nation to rejoice, and will make prosperity again crown our efforts in every department of life. With such men in ollice, with t tie Sermon on the Mount for their platform, would guarantee the settlement ot every question, whether by Democrat or Kopubliearis, to bo ectled light. And when you Bdjust everything by this principle you ubolieh every unnecessary oppression and do away with every monopoly of evil. We rejoice that the time ha come w hen s ) many are looking for men with the Christ spirit to rule over them. We arc surprised that this demand has not been made more earnestly heretofore. We suppose that it will be admitted by all that it is very important to have men in office with at leiu. good moral characters. Ho cause this is even required ef those who would ask for license to sell hqnor. It may not be known by all our readers that license to sell liquor cannot be granted to any one wiio has not a good moral character. lUitsoit stands upon the statute books of North Carolina. Now if we demand men of good moral character to sell whiskey should we not have them in other positions f If we read the sign of the time orrcctly, the tendency in every IKilitieaf party ia to demand pure and honest men for office. Chris tian men should go into convention and tie their influence to thU cud. Christian Advocate. Ilrmjurh fifr4 In ti mlnatm hj It, Ituaa' i am luu. ' Uan im a 4um." We Are Trust Ridden, The Rev. Horace Porter, assistant pastor of Plymouth Church, brook ivn. raised his voice airainst trusts and monopolies Sunday. He preach ed from tho same pulpit from which for so many years Henry Ward IJeceher proclaimed the brotherhood of man. At his side stood a huge bunch of colden rod. The young divine was listened to with rapt attention. Ho said, after speaking of the trust of tho Chris tian Church loft by iaul to inn othy : "Hut there are trusts not so easily judged, and common opinion of them is not eo favorable as of tho first mentioned. There is much said and there is perhaps much more felt against them those forms of trusts whose object it is to combine industries so as to destroy competi tion, regulate production, lower cost, increase profit and lay the founda tion for almost tin wieldly fortunes. " 1 ho world, enriched by thouS' ands of generations of toilers and thinkers, has reached a fertility which can give to every human be ing plenty, but between this plenty growing on thobouih of our civil ization and tho people hungering for it thero stand those who cry 'overproduction,' 'too much of everything,' holding back the riches of the earth, seaand skies from (heir fellows who famish and freeze in the dark. "1 hey declare to them there is too much of life and warmth and food. The charge aiainst trusts are too terrible for us to judge in any hasty manner. But trom tho present public feeling, with a mil lion hands uplifted to any man who seems ready to bring help, with cries going up that rend the skies, let us learn. "It us beware that all is not right ; that there is a burden upon the people which they cannot bear. Whether it bo the fault of politics or bud legislation or the lack of good legislation, whether it is over-production or too fast living, whether it be due in some large measure to the intemperance or vices of men whatever tho 'obscure cause, some thing is radically wrong ; something that the people feel to be a burden which must bo thrown off. "Your ministers are doing noth ing. You do not know what the people aro thinking about these days. You do not know that the man with blackened face, the foun dryuiat), the laborer in the street, is reading his Gibbon and knows why Rome fell. "Ho is reading the history of Fiance and knows what causes were at work that exploded in the French Revolution. Uiese men aro study ing wrongs which, unless they are righted, will be the ruin of the American Republic." - - The Last "Charge" Blown in Virginia. , A circumstance that really hap pened at tho close of the civil war. The bugler boy is a brother to oflr city photographer, making it more interesting. We hope more of the old Yets will hand in such interest ing matter about the war : "We published among our news items last week the fact that Col. O'Ferrail, with his cavalry, had a ught near W oodstock several days after the surrender at Appomattox, not having heard of the surrender. The attack wa made at night, and while it was mude at one point, Col. O'Fcrrall stationed his bugler, boy about lb years of age, at another, some distance off, to blow the rally, so as to give the enemy the impression that ho had more men there. The solitary boy bugler, however, heard tho enemy bugler blow s 'vlmrgo" and responded bv blowing the "charge" himself, which added to the Federal' confusion and greatly aided in tho nicrht' victory. The Confederates won. The bravo boy of that day, who, In Col. O'Ferrall's language, 'nearly blew his head off,' was Mr. R. A. Llakemore, a native ot Augusta and now resident of this city.

WISE WORDS BY A WISE MAN. BRYAN AT MADELIN, N.Y. APART OF HIS SPEECH, "When our. party at Chicago wrote the platfoitn which it did, wo knew that it would offend some peo ple. No party can take a plain strong, emphatic position upon any question without ottonding some body. Wo declared in that plat form what wo believed was right we described thore tho policies which wo believed were best for the American people, and when wo did we knew that it would alienate some. Jet mo read ono of the planks of the platform : "We are opposed to the issmnee ot interest-bearing bonds ot tho United States in time of peace and condemn tho trafficking with bank ing syndicates, which, in exchange for bonds, and at an enormous profit to themselves, supply the Federal Treasury with gold to maintain the policy of gold mono tnutalliHin. "That ia ono of tho planks. That was riot put there to attract tho love of those who havo grown rich out of tie government's extremities, (Applause.) e did not expect those who have a passage way from tho Federal Treasury to their ofliees to join with us in closing np the passage. We did not expect those who mo making a profit out of the gold standard and out of the em- arra.smetit it brings to tho Treas ury to mm with us in putting an end t) tho gold standard. If you remember, tho Good hook state that ome lWH) years ago a man named Demetrius complained of the preaching of tho Gospel be cause it interrupted his business. Ho diil not go out and say to the world : 'Our business is injured and wo aro mad.' What did he say? Ho said: 'Great is Diana of the Ephesia is.' (Applause.) We have i.ome to-dy who are very much ike Demetrius, lhey know that the restoration of bimetallism de stroys the business in which they have been engaged. Uut when they make public speeches they do not say that tho Democratic party is wrong because it interferes with their business. What do they say f irei.t is sound money ; great is an honc-t dollar.' (Applause.) 1 say this platform was not writ ten to attract their votes, it was written because we want to destrov the business in which thev are en gaged. Rut, my friends, if those who have made a profit out of the government's financial policy array themselves against tho Democratic party, may wc not expect those who believe that wo are right to come to our rescue and fill up the ranks that are being depleted by their de sertion ? (Applause.) If we must part company with those who be lieve in a government of syndicates, by syndicates and for syndicates, may we not appeal with confidence to those who believe that a govern ment of tho people, by the people and for the people should not perish from the earth? (Applause.) If these men who pride themselves upon their prominence in the busi ness world and who glory in the ti tle of business men are going to make a business out of politics, are going to use their ballots to increase their incomes, I beg yon to consider whether the great toiling masses of this nation have not a right to make a business out of politics for once and protect their homes and their families from disaster. (Applause.) I havo not been in the State of New York long ; I have not met many of your people, and yet in the short time that I have been here 1 have met enough Republican who said they werj going to vote our ticket to rn'ikc np for every Demo crat that ever deserted us, and we welcome tho coming guest as wo speed those who are parting. (Ap plause.) Now, my friends, this is a piacti cal question. It is a question which you must consider for yourselves. The gentleman who has preceded me I as veiy properly told yon that you were competent to settle these question for yourselves. The found er of our government never con ceded that tho time would come that there would be only a few jeo plo in this country who were com-, jwtent to settle great public ques tion. (Applause.) If they had, they would have written iu the con stitution that on most questions everybody couldoto, but on the money question only the financiers eouli vote.

There is no wrong nor eve n cause lor suspicion of evil in our Urder, Rut there is about it a good and grand accordance with the work and way of our heavenly Father, Himself, iu hi teachings in Crea tion and Providence, as lie gradual ly unfolds and reveal them to our race not only in God's immediato or direct providonco, but in our human agency a part of hi gener al providence, Nearly every great lesson begins in profound eeerecy. Let all who consider secrecy to ho evil in itself, consider tli ia great problem: No text in the Riblo condemn secrecy, in it.ielf considered, or regard it alono as proof ot evil intent or action, (not one). On the contrary, the whole plan of human redemption, tho Gospel and its purposed salva tion, iH spoken ot as "Mystery (Secret) hid from the ages, and revealed only in theso last days. Wo aro also informed that tho sacred things belong to God. Rut these thing aro revealed and belong to us and to our children lorevcr. Ilowbeit, these revealed thing wero onco secrets, and even some thing now "revealed unto bibies" are yet hidden from the wiso-tnd prudent. Say the Rok, without which, in the lodgo room, no lodge meeting can bo hold; in tho beginning the earth was without form (chaotic) and void (empty) and d irknes was upon tho face ot tho deep. In that silence and under that darkness was secrecy which no eye saw, no ear heard, no minds apprehended save tho omniscient. In the silence and aeerecv of that emptiness God' creative and revealing spirit brooded on tho fact1 of tho waters until tho fi ret born l creation enmo forth at tho oninitie words "Ixit thero be ht." Until then thero could bo no revelation of the material things or processes ot tins world and tne mode followed in this "beginning has been generally pursued in all the succeeding ways and workings of God. Unto the present time the keenest ryings of human curiosity havo not been able to expose the hidden powers imp.irted to nature in its various production. Sconce, false- j y so calico, may boast that it has tracked to their primal beginnings the plant, the insect and the animal, and that it has laid bare the origin of their creation, but the microscopic cell or the animalcuhne jelly par ticle would always have remained cell or a particle had there not been back of it or within it a hidden mysterious power with secret process a hidden wisdom with secret skill; a hidden goodness secretly to furnish nutriment; secretly to increase its form and push it forth in growth; 6ecretly to fashion it in beauty; se cretly to ba'ance its part and facul ties in symmetry, and secretly to diiect and conduct it to it destined d. These n human search can find, no human science know. They are secrets and in such wise and benefi cent secrecy does our heavenly ather begin all his creation and productions in natnro. And al! along His course, iu all stages of growth and progress, Ho maintain the same reerecy, the how being concealed and the result only re veiled. And this divine secrecy of devising and doing is perpetuated ami renewed in the birth of every animated b'jing and in the produc tion of every vegetable germ. The same secrecy i found in tho divine teachings as to the growth ot races and rations and the rise and establishment of their government and institutions. The real begin nings are e -cret, hidden from even the human minds, used a agent, in whom lie worked to will and to do of Hi goo 1 pleasure. They mpy know when they were first conscious of feeling and think ing, but can hardly imagine when and how (rod began with them to awaken th'itn to plan and to per form. All such beginnings are se cret, perhaps hiJden away back among the omnitic springs of divine creation in that "beginning" when time itself bega'i. Nor arc these the only secret in structions of God. All along the pathway of the growth and pro gress of nations, dispensations and institutions, secret influence come flowing in. Mysterious impulse feed human energies, hastening them onward and increasing their power and operations until the hu man agent learn that God' will has been done in and by them. The histories of tho patriarehial dispen sation, beginning with the call of Abraham, ol the Mosaic dispensa tion, full ol 3ct unrepealed myste ries of Christianity with it wonder ful transforming going on all around us all are evidences of the secret inilaeree by which God teaches tLe generation of meu. Turning trom divine to Luman providences, a such we find that our heavenly Father ha made sim ilar secret beginning! necessary to human advancement. Nearly every new invei lion and eyetem and in ttitution triginated in the silence and eecre y of thought and wa de veloped ai d matured in secret med itation and frequently wa put into experimental tperation in tome re treat secret from the busy world. Thus Benjamin Franklin, arc-oin-panied on y by a lad, stole out ot rhiladuli iia on June 15th, 1752, to meet an approaching thnnderstorm, and, at whtt is now tho corner of Highest of all in Leavening KSHvifevll 1 EVCA ZJ If Ruttonwood street and Ridge av enue, he secretly perfoi mod hi great experiment of drawing lightning from the tlpuds by mean ot a kite, thus demonstrating lightning and electricity to bo the eame. The world now benefit hy that secret experiment improved upon bv Dr. Priestly and professor Henry Morse and other. Many secret councils wore held by protostant reformer, also by our revolutionary heroes and sages, in devising their plans of reform and revolution. Without such secrecy in planning and executing, it ia hardly iossible they could have succeeded. !ut it may be said ot these m ystei ies and crct8, they have been made known, and many others will lie re vealed. True. Rut it wa only when tho purpose of secrecy had been gained and men been prcparod to profit by tho revelation. Even o, reverently poaking, is it in Odd Fel lowship, it principles, it precepts, it modes of relict, its legislation and proceeding generally. All these are freely made for tho information of the world. Rut tho peculiar proee by which our mem- hers were indoctrinated so impress- ively, and the mean of recognition oy wuien we are auie ana enaoieu to know each othor and to work to gether so effectively ; these may not yet bo published. They aro moet useful and beneficial as secret. When the world at large i prcparod to receive and profit by theso, and not sooner, we hope that all mem bers of all churches and associations will become Odd Fellows. Odd Fellowship has not merely a name, but a life. It ib living and actual in deeds which accord with it teachings, fur it require of every menilter self control and self direc tion, subjugation of passion and ap petite to reason and the moral pow ers ; self abnegation and self sacri fice for the good of others ; deeds ot mutual aid and effort m seasons of distress and danger : acts of benefi cences to the poor, the Borrowing and the suffering; charity in feeding word and deed to all who need it, as well as all who deserve It, without regard to nation, p3rty or sect, and kindly forbearance and toleration in all those belief and opinion where in men cannot (or think they can not) agree, a well as hearty co working in all good wherein men are agreed. Theso are some of tho exercise by which member are trained into fuller development of their manhood, their humanity, their fraternity in friendship, love and truth, and their childlike and exalted trust in (rod. In addition to the largo sum ex pended yearly for relief, and the amounts accumulated for future use, we again remind the reader that What's lone wa partly may compute, But know not what's prevented." Under our wise and humane sys tem of relief beforo utter want, what we prevent is far greater than what wo cure. , Cloudburst in New Mexico. A special from Mongollon, N. M., say tliat city was struck by a cloud burst on Tuesday evening. John Knight, a miner at Georgetown, was drowned while in his cabin. Several others reported missing, but so far only two bodies, that of Knight and an unknown Mexican have been recovered. One hundred families have been rendered almost homeless, and thirty house have been washed away. The Colonial Mining Company of Boston ha suffered to a great extent. It i feared tho mine is filled with mud and water. The Deep Down Mining Com pany of Kansas City was a loeor to a large extent. The town i in a deep canon between high moun Uin. The flood attained a height of eight feet in the street, and lasted thirty minute. Had it continued ten minute longer the whole town would havo been swept away, as the debris had collected in the street, forming a solid wall, just as the flitod began to recede. Nearly al! business house were damaged. The cloudburst also caused loss of life and damage to property at Graham, N. M. The Confidence was badly damaged.
