There has been a good deal of interest this week in the perform ance of the balloon corps of the army in Washington. The army has just established such a corps and while it is not large, the gov ernment has already purchased ten observation balloons and the men are being drilled in their use. The work in Washington this week has consisted in teaching the enlisted men how to inflate, pack and transport , the huge bags and how fi handle them while in the air. Tl work is un der the direction of Lee Ste phens, the professional aeronaut and Capt. de Forest Chandler of the Army. There have been six ascensions made already and there will be thirty before the series is finished. There is a good deal more to the work than mere ly tying the bag of the balloon to a gas main and letting her fill All the intricacies of the art are being imparted to the men and Quite soon the army ought to have a balloon observation corps equal in skill if not in size to that of any of the foreign armies. The experience of the Russian balloon corps , in the Japanese war was not very encouraging. The reDort of the experts was that satisfactory photographs pmild not be taken from the cap tive balloon ;ar, both because of the altitude and the vibration, though it is popularly supposed there is Mio . vibration maoai loon. It was said also that t h e conformation " of the earth was so deceptive and topography bo distorted from a safe observa tion altitude that the balloon nroved almost helpless. r-- -. ... One interest ing feature oi tne work on which the government is embarking, however, is the building of a derigible balloon. The plans for this are already drawn. It is said that the bag will be 190 feet long and it wil be driven by two 120 horse pow er gasoline motors. It is expect prl that it will be able to ma ke 33 miles an hour in still air. The projected cost is about sixty thousand dollars. Tt, is said bv that most usefu of all persons, "the man closest to the President," tnattnere wm be no objection offered by this government to the reappoint. munt nf We Tunir t ans as Minister to the U. S. It wi be remembered that while Mr. VVn was an entertainmg person during his stay here, he ofen o verstepped the bounds of diplo macy in things he done and said. Tin was also credited witn nav- ing instituted the Chinese boy cott of American goods on his return to China, bo. that, these were various reasons why the United States might have objects The Plowing Rnck RohjJ I was very much pleased to note in a recent paper that there are prospects of an electric road from Lenoir to Blowing Rock. It is to be hoped that this report is true, for an undertaking of this kind would make a decided advance in the progress of West ern North Carolina. It would mean much in ilsels, as an actual benefit to many people, and in oro than that, it would prove that we are w orkinsr up the opportu nities latent in our own lair land, and the possibilities brought out by the modern practical side of HPiPnop. In this connection iet me name a!few points which tomy mind speak eloquently for such a roaa. , 1. Roads using steam genera, ted electricity Have been, and are successfully operated in many places on a one cent per mile basis. 2. Those interested would be glad to pay them four times that amount to ride easily and safely to Blowing UocK m amoaern inter-urban car. 8. It is auite probable that suf- flpipnt water power could be se cured conveniently to preclude the use of steam entirely. 4. Such a road would open up resources as yet untouched, in Wfttaucra and adioininsc coun- . . . a tips. Isn't there some good solid ar gument inthese four Bhort para graphs?

A Scotch lad arrived at Euston, the brisrhtest vet the loneliest passenger by the London a n d ; Northwestern Companys express. He was barely fourteen, had not ( a friend in London, and had on ly a sovereign in his pocket. "Well, Sandy," said a fellow- passenger who had beinenaeu , hiin during the journey f r o m j Glassrow. "don't you wish you, were Bafe now with your mother j In Scotland?" ........ w , "No." said the boy, "I promi ised her when I left that I wpuW be fearless and .honest.:'' I; have ' her fortune to make as well is" my own, and I must have gpod courage.'. , ' , "Well, laddie, what can you do? asked a kind voice behind him. 'I can be loyal and true to any body who will give me something to do," was the quick response. A well-known lawyer, whose ex perience with applicants for clerk ships in his office had been unia- vorable, was pausing at the moment. Sandy's fearless face caught his eye. The nonest maniy ring in Sandy's voice touched his faith ful scotch heart. "Tell me your story," he said kindly. It was soon told Sandy's moth er had been left a widow, with lit tle money and a child to bring up. She had worked for him as lone: as she could, but when her health failed, she had bought him a ticket to London, and had given him what little money she could spare. "Go: and make your fortune," she said "Be fearless and henest, Fine Care Fine Hair It's fine bare that makes fine hair!
