RUSSIA THREATENS AMERICA Oar readers will remember that a few days ago a was made to our government for premission to lay a cable from the island of Guam to aome point in Japan, connect ing at the former point with the American PaciGo cable. The fear that the Russians would cut the cable between Japan and Shanghai was the moving cause of the request The question as to whether the granting of such request would be a violation of neutra lity was submitted by the ■tate department which decided that it would not Russia dif fers with the American officers. She goes so far to say that she would oonsider such cable as contraband of war, which means that she would cut the cable as soon as she would get hold of it. Buch conduct, of course the United States would not ' Submit to. While the state de partment holds that the laying of such cable would not be in violation of the laws of neu trulity, we doubt its granting permission. Such cable, while not belonging to Japan or laid for the purpose of aiding her in any way against Russia, would be of great help, especi ally should the other cable be cut, and it is not likely that our government would put itself in the position of rendering such aid to one of the belligerents. Still we do not like the ida of such threats as Russia's decla ration carries.— Wilmington Messenger. , Tuvre has been a great «lea\ of complaint by our subscrib ers. made to us since we have been publishing TUK ENTIR paiSE about not receiving their papers promptly. Some of our subscribers at EvercMs claim that they cannot get their paper till Monday, Hamilton is the same way. We have pnt up with this kind of busi ness until we are tired and worn out. The papers are put in the Williamston office on Friday evening generally.it uot Fri day evening they are sent to the offioe in ample time to catch the train Saturday morn ing, this being the oase, these papers should be delivered in Everett*, RobersonvilSe, Par mele, Hassell, Goose Nest and Hamilton on Saturday. If they are uot at these offices on Sat urday then it is the fault of nome one in the employ of Uncle Sam. We pay Uncle Sam for deliv ering our papers, and the em ployes of Uncle Sam are paid to do their work. We do not like to complain, but, it seems to be inevitable, and the next occasion we have for complaint we intend to do it to the best of our ability. We will set where the fault lies, whether it is at these offices Lr, - . X 1 #•" ' lor the starting point This is uot written through an/ ill feeling toward any post master, but to let those who are at fault know that there must be a stop put to this dila tory way of handling the mail, A great deal of kicking was heard last night on account of the street lamps not being lighted. It was a dark night and a bad one, and if the lights were ever needed it was last night If we arc to have lights it is just such nights as last night that we need them. If the commissioners don't give us lights en these nights, it is an needless expense to give them other nights'. Within thirty days, perhaps in a shorter time, the United States will be in full possession of the Panama canal property and the money will have been paid to both the republic of Panama and to (he New Pana ma Canal Company. It is true that Russia can muster an army of two or three million, but the walking to the Far East is mighty bad. —At- lanta Constitution. It Sm Ills Leg P. A.

Brazilian Reptile Who*# Bit* la AK meat Invariably Fatal. The fer-de-ianco is one of the moat deadly poisonous snakes in the world. It is common in Brazil and some of the West Indian islands. The head is flat and triangular, the length live to seven feet. A horny spike at the end of the tail rasps against hard objects. Tho bit© is almost instantly fatal, and eyen when immediate death is averted serious and cveutuully fatal trou bles may set in. Tho erenture which fears tho monster least is a bravo eat. See ing a snake, she at once carries her kittens to a place of aofety, then boldly advances to tho encounter. She will walk to the very limit of the serpent's striking range and be gin to feint, teasing him, startling him, trying to draw his blow. A moment more and tho triangular head, hissing from tho coil, flashes swift as if moved by wings. But swifter still the stroke of the armed paw dashes the horror aside, fling ing it mangled into tho dust, says the San Francisco Call. Nevertheless pussy docs not yet dare to spring. Tho enemy, still alive, has almost instantly reformed his coil, but she is again in front of him, watching, vertical pupil against vertical pupil. Again tho dashing iW«; nijain the beautiful coun tering; again xtfl living death is hurled aside, and now the bvAt)£- skin is deeply torn, one eye socket lias ceased to flame. Once more tho stroke of the serpent; once more the light, quick, cutting blow. But the trigonocephaly is blind, is stu pefied. Before he can attempt to coil pussy has leaped upon him, nailing the horrible flat head to the ground with her two sinewy paws. Now let him lash, writhe, strivo to strangle her. In vain. He will nev er lift his head. An instant more and he lies still. The keen white teeth of the cat have severed ths vertebra just behind the triangular skulL A Bargain. The woman was at the bargain counter and was plainly distressed. The Brooklyn Eagle thus relates her woes and the remedy which she in vented : "These goods," said she, "hats been marked down from $5 to $4 ?" "Yea, ma'am," replied the clerk. "And these others have been marked down from |5.10 to "Yes, ma'am." "I like the ft ret." "It's an excellent bargain." "But the other is a better one," she insisted. "You couldn't make the live dollar goods three ninety, could you?" "No, ma'am." "I'd take them in a minute if you would." "I am not permitted to do it." "I'd much rather have them." "You'll find them very satisfac tory." "But the other is the better bar gain." She hesitated again. "Well," she said at last, "give me the five ten goods for 54." Later she confided tn a friend, "They weren't at all what I want, but I'm too good a shopper io be satiafied with a discount of a dollar when I can get a dollar ten."
