Skater Brakes His Neck. Asheville, August 22.?A man named Elds, from Chattanooga, Tenn., a visitor to Asheville, fell at the Asheville skating rink to night shortly after ten o'clock, breaking his ueck aud dying al most iustautly Mr. Elds with his wife visited the rink to-night. The husband put on the skates and went on the door while his wife looked on. After skating for some time Mr. Elds leisurely started to where his wife was sit ting, and leaning over the rail ing, talked and laughed with her. Suddenly the man's skates shot forward, he lost his balance, fell backward and striking the floor, broke his neck. He died in an instant or two.

One hundred years ago a man could not take a ride on a steam boat. He had never seen an electric light or dreamed of an electric car. He could not send a telegram. He couldn't talk through the telephone He could not ride a bicycle. He could not call in a stenog rapher and dictate a letter. He had never heard of the germ theory or worried over bacilli or bacteria. He never heard a phonograph talk or saw a kinetoscope turn out a prize tight. He never saw through a Web ster's unabridged dictionary with the aid of a Roentgen ray. He had never taken a ride in an elevator. He had never seen his wife use a sewing machine. He had never struck a match. He couldn't take an anesthetic and have his leg cut off without feeling it. He had never seen a reaper or a self-binding harvester. 1 He had never crossed an iron i bridge. j Old maids would be scarce and . hard to find, Could they be made to see, How grace and beauty is com- ; bined ( By using Rocky Mountain Tea. j Hood Bros.

Our second day's stay in New 1 Ki gUnd was made more pleas aut than the first Promptly at .Mr. Fairbanks and his com mittee calied for us at our hotel and piloted us to two special street cars reserved for the party of the V.rginia-North Carolina Press Association. The care passed out through some of the principal thoroughfares of Hot ton, across the Charles river and iuto Cambridge, the seat of Har vard I 'Diversity. Our first step w is made at the famous institu tion of learning, the oldest in the country. Here guides took us through the .beautiful grounds and pointed out many of the buildings. As our time was limi ted we went through only two or i three of the buildings. Perhaps the most iuteiestiug i place visited here was the build ing containing the wonderful col : lection of glass flowers made by Leopold and Kudolph lilaschka of Germany. Here are seen al most every variety of flower known showing every color,made of glass. There is no other col lection like it in the world. The process of making and coloring these flowers in glass is known only to the Bla-chkas. We also visited the great dining hall, seating 1,000 students. This hall is 100 feet long, 00 feet wide and 80 feet high. This building is known as Memorial Hall and was erected in memory of Har vard students who lost their lives in the Civil War. Harvard is not only the oldest college in America, but it is also i the richest, owning property I worth $12,000,000. More than 3,000 students are enrolled each year. The faculty numbers more than 300. As we passed out of Cambridge we passed near the Washington Elm, the tree under which Gener al Washington took command of the American army, and also near the home of the poet Long fellow. Our next stop was made at Lexington. Here we visited the battleground where the Seventy "minute men" met the British; on that memorable April 10, | 177.">. Several buildings may be seen here that were silent wit nesses of the first battle of the! Revolution, among them being the Munroe Tavern, built in 1095. the Buckman Tavern, the) Slerrian House, built in 1702,and the house of Jonathan Harring ton, who, wounded in the tight of April 10, dragged himself to his door and died at his wife's feet. Several monuments and tab lets mark the places of interest here?the drinking fountain mounted with a statue of Cap tain Parker, who commanded the "minute men," and a small stone monument bearing the words of Captain Parker, "Stand your ground. Don't fire unless fired upon, but if they mean to have a war let it begin here," be ing of special interest. Hut we could not stay longer on this historic spot, so we board ed our cars for Concord, reach ing there a little after 12 o'clock. Here we were served an elegant luncheon on the lawn at the old Wright Tavern, built in 1747. In this building Major Hitcairni of the British forces, had his j headquarters on April 1!), 1775. After luncheon we were taken ! in carriages for a visit to many i places of interest in the old town.' Here was the homeof Hawthorne, Lmerson, Louisa M. Alcott, rnoreau, Sanborn and others who are wtll known in the litera ry history of our country. It | would take too much space to bell all that interested us at this; !amous old town. (In a future' irticle we may have more to ) On the way back to Boston the j urty stopped at Lexington Park and at Waltham. At the atter place the famous Waltham watch factory was visited. Here j ;he party was shown a watch in ts making from the beginning to J the completion. At five o'clock the proprietors of the watch com pany gave our party a banquet that was much enjoyed. \t hile 1 all was enjoye^ to the fullest ex tent, the lack of time cut short the splendid speech of our broth er-editor, the witty Copeland. of the Richmond Times-Dispatch. The Waltbam people employ | over three thousand operatives aud one of the most interesting sights of the day was to see the great throng tile out of the im mense building when the six , o'clock bell rang From Waltbam our party was ! taken to beautiful Norumbega l'ark. The following description of the Park taken from a little book issued by the Lexington A: Itoston Street Railway, may lie of interest: "Norumbega Park is a won derful creation of nature, with an abundance of shady walks and cool breezes Located at Auburn dale ou-the Charles, oil high ground, the view aud recreation are unsurpassed. The terraces on the north slope are a favorite locality, where one may sit aud see the hundreds of glittering ca noes passing and repassing on the river below. Thousands of shrubs in great variety adorn the walks, while the beautiful fiower beds, in all shapes, and filled with rare domestic and ex otic-plants, are a marvel of the gardner's skill. "The extensive zoo, the merry go round, the donkeys, the bear pit, deer park, elk park, and swing court, are all great attrac tions for the children as well as adults. "A magnificent new theatre was built on the grounds in the spring of 1904. "On the right of the theatre is an electric fountain, which plays in the evening after theeutertain ment, giving an arrangement of colored lights and a spray, which is both beautiful and attract ive." After enjoying a three hours' stay at Norumbega at 10 o'clock we boarded the cars for Boston, ! reaching our hotel shortly after eleven o'clock. The pleasures of the day were greatly increased by the presence | of Mrs. Fairbauks, her daughter, Mrs. Brooks, and Mrs. Leavitt. | These charming ladies made many friends in our party who will long remember them with pleasure. Messrs. Thompson and Hill, of the Boston branch of the American Type Founders Company, and Mr. K.C. l'elouze, of the Richmond branch of the same concern were on hand to assist Messrs. Fairbanks, Leavitt ' and Vittum, in showing the visi- ! tors the sights and scenes of ( Boston and vicinity. \ Mr. Fairbanks, the chairman 1 of the committee that did so much for the pleasure of the j Southerners, is editor of the ' N'atick Bulletin, and is also Free- < ident of the Massachusetts Press Association. Mr. Thomas Leav itt, another member of the com mittee, and to whom our party ] was indebted for much of the 1 pleasure of the trip through Dorchester, is editor of the Dor chest Beacon, and also a promi- 1 nent member of the Massachu setts General Assembly. Not one of the Committee left any stone unturned for the pleasure of the party and every one agreed that 1 the hospitality shown us could not be surpassed anywhere. A Lesson For Wives. Nothing under heaven cuts the ' grit from under a man quicker ' than does discord and unhappi- 1 ness in his home. Some men, ! but they are rar? exceptions, are strong enough to be something in spite of home troubles. The 1 man whose wife olakes an un- ' pleasant home for him knows a ' good deal about hell before he J dies. And on the other hand a ! man whose wife makes a pleas- ' ant home for him is thrice armed 1 and panoplied for life's battles^ and heaven will not seem strange to him. ?Monroe Enquirer.

REYNOLDS' SUN CURED is not only pure sun cured, but it is made from choice selections of the genuine sun cured leaf grown where the best sun cured tobacco grows. It is like that you formerly got, costing from 60c. to $1.00 per pound, and is sold at 50c. per pound in 5c. cuts; strictly 10c. plugs, and is the best value in sun cured tobacco that can be produced for chewers. R. J. REYNOLDS TOBACCO CO. Winston*Salem, N. C. Extra Trains on Atlantic Coast Line. The following is taken front the Rocky Mount Record. We learn from a private source, but a reliable one, that General Passenger Agent W. J. Craig has ret pies ted seven extra passenger trains each day over the A. C. L. division front this city to Nor folk, to begin opeiation January 1st. This is to handle the im mense crowd who wish to see the Jamestown Exposition. Those trains are to be three over the short cut to Fayetteville and three to Wilmington, while one train is to be operated from here to Norfolk. These are all in ex cess of the regular trains operat ed now. The Southern Railway is negotiating to run several passenger trains over their road J from Greensboro to Selma, and then over the AtlanticGoast Line ! tracks from that place to Nor- \ folk. A spur track is being con structed from the Southern end of the vard at South Rocky ; Mount through to the Norfolk branch; this is to handle all Southern freight and through passenger trains for Norfolk. The new A.C. L. trains will mean! several new crews, all of which will probably bp chosen for this division. , I I White Globe.
