C, JULY 14, 1891 ALL HELP. Now that the selection of a man to get up an exhibit for the county at the Exposition has been made( in the person of Mr. Geo. E. Gill, it is to be hoped that every farmer in the county will do all he can to aid Mr. Gill. The time is short, and the best season has passed for securing the most desirable specimens in some products, and unless aid is given in the shape of information as to where specimens can be obtained, &c Mr. Gill will have a hard time. What we want for Wake county and for the whole State is to make the very best exhibit possible, and if anybody will help we will succeed. 3000 Volts and Still Alive. This is another blow at the scienti fic nonsense of electrocution. Line man Wm. Murphy, of St. Louis, aged 80 years, received 3000 volts, which is 1400 more than was used at Sing Sing the other day, and the man is still alive and sufficiently recovered to tell of his indescribable sufferings. His flesh was burned and he had been pronounced dead. Cave in of a Cole Mine. A disastrous cave occurred in the mines of the Kingston Cole company near Larksville, 5 miles from Wilkes barre, Pa., on Sunday morning. The village is built directly over the mines and when the surface sank, it was so sudden that the upward rush of the ' air blew the roof off the fan house For hundreds of feet in all directions the earth is sunken and cracked and many buildings are badly damaged A Novel Law Suit. New Orleans has a rather strange law suit just now. Mrs. Margaret G Gordon, an invalid, has sought relief in the courts from the annoyance of the singing of a mocking bird owned by her next door neighbor, Mrs. Ma ry L. White. We expect there will be a lively time over the musical note of the mocking bird yet, and some new law may evolve. Finally Settled. Mrs. Jefferson Davis has Anally de cided that the last resting place of her husband shall be at Richmond, Va., because it was the capital of the confederacy. Mr. Davis died in New Orleans on the 6tb of December, 1S89 and his remains were buried there Jackson, Mississippi, New Orleans and Richmond all put in claims to furnish his grave and monument. The three great iumber States of the Northwest, Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota, are killing the goose that lays their golden eggs at a rate will soon make both goose and eggs only a memory. The value of the forest products not manufactured at mill in the three States for 1890 was $80,426,194; value of mill products, $115,699,004, and of manufactures, $81,112,618, makihg a total value of lumber products for the year of $167,287,816. This branch of industry employed about 1 85,000 hands and distributed $95,688 256 for wages, subsistence, supplies and miscel laneous expenses. At this rate there will soon be a lot of lumber capital ists and a good many thousands of employees looking for new lumber worlds to conquer in other States. NortU Carollua trca Couveu. tion. The next meeting of the North Carolina Press Association will be held in Winston, Wednesday and Thursday, August i2th and VMu Already arrangements are bdug made for the meeting. The Winston people who never do things by halves, will give the editors a grand time, one that will be memorable in the As sociation's history. I hope every editor who will attend will notify me at once. I must have the names of all who will go as soon as possible, in order to arrange for transportation, etc. All the railroads will give transportation to and from Winston in exchange for advertising. State exactly over what lines and from what points you desire passes. Do not leave me to infer anything. "No one but a bona fide editor or publisher of newspapers in North Carolina is eligible to membership in the Press Association, and none oth ers will be entitled to any courtesies extended to delegates. This rule will be strictly enforced. It is useless for anyone except an active editor or publisher to apply for membership or transportation. Every applicant for membership must have been con nected with the newspaper business in the above capacity at least three months. Editors or publishers of college or school papers, or other publications having nothing in com mon with the newspaper business, and owners of papers not directly engaged in the editorial or business management, are not eligible, and will be rigidly excluded. Members will remember that the annual fees, $2, should be paid to the secretary and treasurer before the meeting. Applicants for member ship must pay $3 initiation fee. which also pays their dues for one year. This will most probably be the largest convention the Association has ever held. At the close an ex cursion will probably be taken to the live town of Wilkesboro, and possibly other excursions will be on the pro gramme. Do not delay, but write to me at once, if you will go. Fraternally, J. B. Sherrill, Sec. N. C. P. A. Concord, N. C July 1, 1890. Banks. The banks in the South have in creased vary much within a few years, and it continues. The North had almost the whole circulation at one time. Even as late as 1875, the entire South had but 174 banks while little New England had 538, and the Middle States 6-6. But there is a marked change. In 1890, the figures were 528 banks in the South, 582 in New England, and 837 in the Middle States. The Western States have 1,599, It will be seen that great as is the in crease in the number of Southern banks that there is room for many more. In fact there is still some in equality and to the disadvantage of the South. The capital, it is stated in the New Orleans Times Democrat, is for New England and the Middle States $355,090,000-a falling off of $8,000,000 since 1878 -and for the South $300,000,000, or more than double. Mr. Blaine's Condition. Bab Harbor, July 12. The steam yacht Susquehanna was in the liars bor this morning, with President Sewell, of the Maine Central, and General Hyde, of Portland. Both called on Mr. Blaine. It has been a gala day with the prominent invalid. He received callers all the morning and went driving all the afternoon with his physician, Dr. Taylor, who is devoting his whole time to keeping Mr. Blaine amused and drive away the melancholia, which is now his on ly trouble. This is a serious trouble as it affects himmentaliy. He is living under a constant fear of dying suddenly. If this fear can be dispelled there is no doubt but that he will be as well as ever. That Oraugemen'a Hiot The rioters at the Orangemen's parade on Saturday night, at Front and Jefferson streets were Riven a hearing before Magistiate Uillepaie at the Tenth district station hoiiBe yesterday. There were live of the men ar rested. The charges against them were for assault and battery, inter fering with an officer, broach of the peace and rioting. James Carson and John McCaughey were held iu $400 for breach of the peace, Patrick McGinn was chanced with rioting and held iu $800 bail for court and Lewis and August Razer were charged with interfering with an officer and held for a further hearing today. The men were all mixed up iu the row that took place at Front and Jefferson streets when the Kensing ton lodges were returning from the Orangemen's picnic. There were several stones thrown and blackjacks used, but no one was seriously hurt. In the row one woman fainted. The story that three policemen, in quell ing the disturbance, were seriously injured is without foundation in fact. The officers were not in any way hurt.
