The Pretly Girl. Pick Me Up There seems to be a campaing just now againBt the pretty girl, and we're bound to have our say in the businees if the roof drops. The pretty girl, as a rule", is just a dressed-up signboard that will flirt for hours with n addle-pated masher in a clean paper collar, but if a, young man with a solid lining to his head starts talking she'll give about two square inches of yawn every five minutes. Of course, we only write this out of spite, because we are as homely as a used-up Bath brick, and the last time we engaged a pretty girl with our well-known brilliancy of wit and conversation, she had to own that if she hadn't had her pus dcg with her she'd have felt quite lonely. ijjf forWomen) A V Am vtm fwwMc it J Are you nervous?

Under the above caption The New York Journal of Commerce refersas fol lows to theColeman cotton mill at Con cord, which it is proposed to operate with colored labor: The moBt ambitious effort bo far in this connection is the erection of a new mill at Concord, N. C The president of this mill, R. B. Fitzgerald, resides at Durham, N. C. Your correspondent vieited him and in an interview elicited some points which are not generally known. Reports in various publica tions have stated that the capital has been furnished entirely by colored in vestors. This is not bo; the officers are all colored, but there are several white stockholders, and in addition to taking stock one of the latter has advanced the company $10,000 to complete its work. This was the only indebtedness of the company a week ago and whose ex penditure up to that time had been $71,000. The building, 120x80 feet and three stories high, is completed and furnished with machinery, its equip ment being 5,700 spindles and 140 looms, but the equipment is not new. The mill is all ready to go to work, but needsmoney to buyits cotton. This latter statement may have to be qualified by what may have happened within the past few days, as one of the directors at the time of the interview with Mr. Fitz gerald was in New York trying to place the mill's account with a commission house. If it were the intention of Mr. Cole man, the prime mover in this enterprise to demonstrate what the negro could do as a textile worker, it would seem as though he should have equipped the mill with new and up-to-date machin ery. Mr. Fitzgerald says the machinery is practically up to date, none of it be ing over five years old, but at the same time admitted that, so far as he was con cerned, he would rather have bought less and had it new. Mr. Fitzgerald said that he was no authority as to what the negro was capable of doing in a tex tile mill, his experiences had been all in outdoor labor, (he is a brickruaker on a large scale at Durham.) In that the negroes had gradually forced out the white labor and at the present time he had few whites in his employ. He pointed to the fact that the senior of the Duke tobacco concern, with a long use of negro labor in their works, had in vested in the Coleman Company and had advanced the $10,000 aforesaid as well, as a proof that there were success ful manufacturers in ether lines willing to risk something in giving the negro a fair chance in the textile industry. In reply to a remark as to the difficulty of starting a mill with colored help, few if any of whom could have had previous training, he stated that they had had many offers of assistance from white carders, spinners, weavers, etc., in the capacity of teachers. As Concord, N. C, will probably be visited later on in this tour there may be more to say about the Coleman Mill. Launched a llottlc and Lout a Sweet heart. Council Bluffs, la. One afternoon in midsummer Ernest Norton, his sweet heart, Miss Grace Newhausen, and three other romantically inclined young cou ples formed a party that went on a trip down the river. Mr. Norton gazed upon the river as the boat sped along, quoted Longfellow, compared the rushing stream to mortal life, and finally sug gested that he write his sweetheart's name on a piece of paper, put it in a bottle and throw it in the water, just to see what would be the final place toward which it would drift. All in the party agreed that it was an interesting idea, and Mr. Norton forth with proceeded to carry it out. The bottle went bobbing up and down in the river, and as it neared St. Joeeph, Mo., one Harold Truax, who was row ing with some friends, noticed the bot tle. He rescued it from the water, and took the piece of paper out. Ou it was a girls' name and address. What a ro mantic final Mr. Truax wrote to the young lady, and she answered his letter. A lively correspondence followed, and finally the old sweetheart who had suggested the bottle idea found himself being com pletely left out of the affair. . And the end of the story is that Miss Newhausen is no longer Miss Newhausen, but Mrs. Truax. The coal miners strike appears to be about ended.

Mryan'ti Speeches. If Republicans are willing to take the Constitution away from the people ol Porto Rico, beware of the day when some power that admits this law will demand that that same Constitution be takeu away from you. I would rather a thousand times that our flag should give way to the flag of e republic than that we should raise th flag of an empire and smear it with blood of conquest in order to do so. Republicans say if we give up Philip pines people in Europe will laugh at us. Let them laugh. They laughed when the Declaration of Independence was signed, but it has been good enough for us. In the early days they did not believe that a man ought to vote upon a sub ject in which he had a personal interest, as a member of Congress or a Senator, but now we can fill our Congress and our Senate with railroad presidents and with trust magnates and let them run their business through legislation to the neglect of the business of the rest of the people. I do not want to harbor an ambition that rests for its gratification on what other people do. I prefer that my highest ambition shall rest for its grati fication upon what 1 can do myself and then I can avoid disappointment; and my highest ambition ia the same as your highest ambition should be, name ly, to do what I can to make this coun try so good that to be a private citizen here will be greater than to be a king of any other nation on earth. If you want to test this theory that you can buy trade with blood do not go into the counting room of some syndicate. Go into some house where death has entered. Go to some mother whose boy has given up his life in the Philippine Islands, and, standing beside the dead body of that boy, you tell that mother that while she has lost her son you think Borne company will make enough developing the Philippine Islands to purchase the right to trade there. Slain ai lie Slept. Charlotte, N. C, Oct. 28. Evi dence of a mysterious murder was found early yesterday morning by the discov ery of the body of an unknown negro man in a blacksmith Bhop connected with the city rock" quarry. The head had been crushed by repeated blows .of a ten-pound sledge hammer, and the neck was broken. For some time the man having in charge of the city's blacksmith work had seen signs of come one having slept in the room, and soon after 12 o'clock yesterday morning, as he happened to pass the place, he looked in to see if it was occupied. He saw a man lying on the earthen floor with a cloth over bis head, and notified the police to arrest him. Two officers rasponded and found upon pulling the cloth from the sup posed sleeper that they were trying to arrest a corpse. Seven or eight feet away the officers found the weapon with which the deed was committed a ten-pound sledge hammer. The back of the head was crushed, but there were no other in juries. There was no indication what ever of a struggle having taken place. The position of the body and the order liness of the dead man's clothes indicate that he had been a passive victim. The body waa still warm. Within half an hour many negroes came to the shop, expecting to identify the murdered man, but none of them knew him. One negro said the man was Lee Bailey, a driver. But two po Iicemen went to the driver's house and in a few minutes Bailey elbowed his way through the crowd", looking down into the murdered man's face and said: "It's not me." One curious fact brought out by the coroner's inquest waa that every article of clothing worn by the dead man wan new, even to the shoes, 6ome of the price tags not haying been removed. An Awful Catastrophe. New York, Oct. 19. Four hundred and fifty persons were killed and injured in a series of terrific explosions and then a great fire which began shortly afterwards in the drug and chemical establishment of the Tarrant Company on Warren and Greenwich streets. The fire which followed the explosions extended two blockB. The city was shaken for blocks around. The loss to property ia estimated between $1,000,000 and $2,000,000. The Irving Bank was wrecked and the city hall is strewn w'tb debris. First Tasteless Tonic ever manufactured.. All other so-called "Taste less" Tonics are imita tions..

Carr has been re-elected commander of the North Carolina Con federate Veterans. General Ransom haa not declared for any one in the Senatorial canvass. His resolution to keep aloof from it is positive. , Rev. Dr. Stags, pastor of the Sx;ond Presbyterian church of Charlotte, has declined the call to the pastorate of Tabb street Presbyterian church, Peters burg, V. Here is an interesting comparison be tween the school population in 1888 ind 189S. In 1SS8 it was. white. 3G3.- 9S2; co'ored, 216,837. In 1898 it was. white. 415.2G2; colored. 213.218. The increase of whites in the ten years was 51,280, and the decrease of colored 3,619. Two Methodist journals, the North Carolina Christian Advocate and the Richmond Christian Advocate, have gone so far in the advocacy of Gen. Julian S. Carr for Senator as to make a church matter of it. The following, printed in both the papers, in this con nection, is pretty clear: "Our Discip line lays down the principle to guide Methodists, employing them (Metho dists) preferably to otherB, buying one of another, helping each other in busi ness, and so much the more because the world will love its own and them only." Cliangea on the Southern Hail war. Charlotte Observer. The Southern Railway Company has issued from office of the President, Mr. Samuel Spencer, in New York city, a circular in the form of an executive order, giving particulars as to the organization of the operating depart ment, which is effective on November first. The circular, which outlines the duties of the various principal officials, states that the system will be divided into two districts, each of which will be in charge of a general superintendent. The eastern district, with head quarters at Salisbury, wili consist of the Washington, Danville, Charlotte, Rich mond, Norfolk, Asheville, Savannah and Charleston divisions. The western district, with head quarters at Cbattanooga, Tenn., wi'l consist of the Knoxville, Memphis, Atlanta, Birmingham, Mobile and Lou isville divisions. - ..... Fever at the State Normal. Salisbury Sun, 30th. It is with sorrow and regret that the patrons and friends of the school will learn that there is again fever at tbe State Normal at" Greensboro. We understand that four of the students have typhoid fever and a number of others have malarial and intermittent feyer." The girls don't like to leave the school and are staying unless required to go home by their parents. A gentleman who was in Greensboro this morning tells us everything is quiet at the Nor mal there is not a ripple on the sur face and not much fear of a general spread of the disease. Miss Bessie Boat, of South River, who has been attending the Normal, was brought to Salisbury this morning by her brother, Rev. S. S. Bost. She is ill but it is hoped that it will not prove serious. Miss Bost will probably be treated at the sanatorium. Drank Oil For Coflcc. Charlotte News, Mr. Tom Ellington is a night op 3r ative at the Ada Mill. He is in the habit of eating a midnight lunch, at which he drinks a cup of coffee. Last night he put the coffee pot near the boiler to heat the coffee and returned to work while the coffee was gett'ng hot. The fireman uses a certain kind of lubricating oil that is very thick and which has to be kept near the fire in order to keep it the right consistency for lubricating. He keeps the oil in a coffee pot. Last night he set the coffee pot of oir on the same ledge with the coffee pot of coffee. Mr. Elliogton came along a short while after, and not noticing that there were two pots in stead of one, picked up what he sup posed was his pot of coffee. The light was dim, and he poured out what he thought was coffee and gulped it down." Irftantly he knew that he had drunk oil instead of coffee. He was about the sickest man that one could find. A physician was summoned and gave him not one, but many emetics. He won't eat or drink anything for many days. Killed By a Bug's Bite. Birmioham, Ala., Oct. 30. Thomas S. Boykin, a prominent wholesale pro duce man, died Sunday from septic pneumonia, produced by the bite of a kissing or electric light bug. Eight days ago the bug stung him on the lip whi'e he was Btanding in the lobby of the Morris hotel. He felt the sting, but paid little attention to it un til a few days ago, when his hp and the entire side cf his face swelled to unusu al proportions and feBtered. He then called in physicians, but it was too late. The poison of the bug's bite had penetrated his entire system, and he died. The remains were taken yeeterday to Selma, Ala., for interment. He was 35 years of age, and leaves a widow. He was 35 years of age, and leaves a widow. He was married only three months ago. The celebrated Gattis-Kilgo case is set for trial in Oxford next month. Some of the best legal talent in the State is employed in the case and it will be a hard fought battle from start to finish. A number of the Durham lawyers are interested in the case. This is the suit in which Rev. T. J. Gattis, now of Charlotte, sues Dr. Kilgo and others for libel and slander. He asks for f 100, 000 damages. The case grew out of the Kilgo-Clark controversy . THE SUNDAY SCHOOL. LESSON VI, FOURTH QUARTER, INTER NATIONAL SERIES, NOV. 11. Text of the Lesson, Lnkc xxl, 10-31. Memory Verses, 10-23 Golden Text, Mnth. vl, 20 Commentary Trepared by the Rt. D. M. Stearns. fCopyrlght. 1900, by American Tress Asso ciation. 10-21. In this etory of the rich man and Lazarus wo have still before us tho thought of provision or no provision for the future and the use or misuse of pres ent things In that connection. No falthv f ul steward of the groeo of God could or can - be Indifferent to Moses and tho prophets (verses 10, IT, 31); those who turued away from God aa therein roveal ed and worshiped Idols were guilty of adultery (Jer. 11, 13; UL 8, 0; xxllL 14; Ezck. xvl, 88, and context), and those who now give this present world tho placo In their affections which God alone should have are guilty of the same sin (Jus. iv, 4). It la said of the true believer that he is married to the Lord to bring forth fruit unto God, unto holiness, unto life eternal (Rom. vll, 4; vl, 22; John iv, 80), and this chapter might be entitled "Fruit unto God or unto self." Fruit unto life eternal la , not dependent upon circum stances, for there could scarcely bo a greater contrast In circumstance than between this rich man In his luxury and thla poor man in his poverty and afflic tion, and yet the latter, a loathsome, pitiable object, whom no one would envy and whose circumstances no ono would desire, has made provision for tho future, while the former, with all his wealth, has neglected to do so. 22. 23. Tbe scene changes, both pass out of the mortal body, and our Lord Jesus Christ lets us look upon them In the spirit world between death and resur rection. This record seems to be a plain statement of facts by one who knew whereof He affirmed and was capable of giving us a glimpse of the unseen, with which lie was perfectly familiar. Death comes to all while our Lord tarries, and the grave claims the bodies of saints and sinners, but there is a morning coming when the upright shall have tho domin ion, the dead In Christ shall rise first, and the righteous who shall then be alivo shall not die, but be changed and caught up to meet tho Lord In the air (I?s. xllx, 14; I Thees. iv, 10-18; I Cor. xv, 51, 52). When saints or sinners leave these mortal bodies, they go on living In happiness or in torment, for the righteous to die Is gain, It is very far better, it is absent from the body, present with the Lord (rhlL I, 21, 23; II Cor. v. 8); for the unsaved It is torment, as here de scribed. The disposition of tho body and a great funeral or no funeral are sec ondary matters. The great Question Is, Where has the person gone, what is his present condition? 24. "I am tormented in this flame." The rich man has turned beggar, and the beggar is now full. lie hath filled the hungry with good things, ' and the rich lie hath sent empty away" (Luke L 53). He seems to recognize the justice of his condition, for he does not complain, but only cries for mercy. It may be asked, "If the souls of the lost do not go to the lake of fire till after the judgment of the great white throne (Hev. xx, 11-15), what is this flame in which he is tormented while waiting for tho greater torment of Rev. xiv, 0-11?" The word hero trans lated, "flame," la used Just seven times, and three times it refers to the eyes of the Lord (Rev. L 14; ii, 18; xix, 12); the other three places are Acta vii, 80; Heb. L 7; II Thees. L 8. To have a sinful life laid bare, with no hope of forgiveness or forgetfulness, and to have that life of self indulgence and rebellion against God ever before you would be torment enough to consume one and parch one's very tongue with anguish. 25, 2a "Son, remember." Does not this seem to Imply that at least part of the agony of the lost, between death and resurrection, will be the unceasing re membrance of past sins, past opportuni ties forever gone, past ingratitude to God which can never be remedied Those who In this life give themselves up to pleasure, saying unto God, "Depart from us, for we desire not the knowledge of Thy ways," will in due time know the meaning cf these words, "Woe unto you that are rich, for ye have received your consolation" (Job xxi, 13; Luke vl, 24). Those who believe these verses can nev er expect what is called a probation aft er death, for, according to this, there Is no passing from the place of the lost to the place of the blest Heaven is above all fear; hell is below all hope. The pun ishment of the lost is for the same length of time as the happiness of tho blest, for it is precisely the same word in the Greek that is applied to each (Math, xsv, 4G). 27, 28. "Lest they also come Into this place of torment." Here is a lost soul anxious for tho salvation of those on earth who are, as he was, Indifferent to their eternal .welfare. What a wonder this is when saved souls on earth mani fest so little anxiety for the salvation of others 1 Or Is it a wonder when we con sider that this lost soul knew what it meant to be lost, for he was experienc ing their torment, while saved ones on earth too often seem not to believe that it means anything very bad not to be saved? God help us to believe Ills every word and to act as if we believed that unsaved people are on their way to eter nal torment, where they shall surely In due time fiud themselves unless, ere they die, they repent and turn to God and trust in the precious blood of Christ. 29-31. "If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead." The word of God, even the Scriptures of the Old Testament, are all sufficient to guide us into the way of peace, for there is but one way of salvation revealed in the whole word of God, and that is salvation by a substitute, the innocent taking the place of the guilty. Whether we consid er the coats of skins for Adam and Eve, or Abel's sacrifice, or the ram offered In the stead of Isaac, or the constant sacri fices of Israel, all point to nim who was led as a lamb to the slaughter on whom the Lord laid the iniquity of ns all (Isa. Uli, 5, 0). If we demand further testi mony than the word of God, we are guilty of despising that word. We have po proof that this rich man was a mur derer or a blasphemer, a drunkard or a dishonest man. He may have been moral upright and a good citizen, but be was evidently an unbeliever, a re jector of the word of God, a desplser of God's redemption. While he had an abundance of this world'B goods, he knew nothing of "durable riches and righteous ness" or "the substance and treasures" f the Lord (Prov. vii!, 18-21). GENERAL Nil US. Grover Cleveland made the statement last week that he will not support McKinley. The President yeeterday issued a pro clamation naming Thursday, Novem 291 h, as Thanksgiving Day. Hon. William J. Bryan spent Sunday resting in New York city where he waa tbe central figure Saturday night of a demonstration in which over 150,000 persons took part.
