great extent 'on the liquor question.

Ifcr Beauty Gone,
Many of our readers have seen some
thing in the public prints concerning
the remarkable beauty of Louisa Mon
tague, to whom Adam Fdrepaugh paid
the sum of $10,000 per annum, simply
as an attraction of his show. If the
circus comes to Charlotte, as is likely,
the people will be deprived of witness
ing this feature of the show, for Miss
Montaarue will be pretty no more for-
eye. In & -railroad collision in Ken
tucky the other day she was impaled by
a large board of the platform passing
through the calf of .one of her limbs,
besides another! I board piercing -i her
thigh, injuring her so severely that her
life was despaired of. v The left side of
her face was greatly lacerated, a deep

chin. This last injury, perjiaps,i8 the

To Be Sore
i There are a great manyj people scat
tered ovep the wtorld,wbO ftv and di
in iha firm belief that newsDaber- mn
uave utue or notnmg to do, and are
jost -honing for alt sorts of odd jobs.
This deluded class make all kinds of
modest .requests of editors, and often
think it a sham if they are, denied
what is asked. The following letter
was recema from a Western college
the other dav; . . . t .-. p
"Dear Sir : As I am engaged in a pub-
; ueuaie, x nereoy solicit your aid and
hope you will help me. The subject for
discussion is: "Is Christopher Colum
bus entitled to the honor of being the
discoverer of America?" I am on the
affirmative of the question and hope to
hear from you soon. I want six or
eight pages of foolscaps of stubborn
points, and arranged so my opponent
cannot get round them. Our debate is
on the 14th, and I have not anv time to
waste on it. If you can write them for
me, piease do so Dy Thursday or Friday,
as this is now Monday, and keep.it from
the public, as I would not have it found
out that I ask for aid.
"Respectfully, -"
Heavy Rainfall ta be Expected
The melancholy days that oujjht to
come about this time of the year, seem
to have been postponed on account of
the weather. Astronomically, the sum
mer ended on the 2 1st of September,
yet we still have the scorching auh of
midsummer to contend with. We pass
ed the autumnal equinox half a month
ago, and as vet not a sitrn has aDoeared
of that ancient delusion. the eauinoctial
storm. It is wbII to state.' however.
that there are indications that when
the belated equinoctial storm does ar
rive it will fullv compensate for its loner
delay. The continuance of parching
weather so late into the autumn is
something almost unprecedented. The
heat and drought of an unusually hot
and dusty summer have Deen protracted
far beyond the usual limit The conse
quences so far exhibited have been dis
astrous to the crops, large forest Ares
have consumed miles of timber and
destroyed hundreds of lives. There have
oeen local rains, but there has been no
general precipitation of the vast vol
ume of vapor accumulated in the sky
during a long period of rapid evapora
tion. In September alone it is estima
ted that the amount of water evapora
ted from the tropical Atlantic and Gulf
of Mexico, much of which is destined
to be borne by trade winds over the
United States, cannot be less than ten
inches of the sea surface, an amount
which, if precipitated within a short
time, would produce torrential rains
over the larger part of the country east
of the Rocky Mountains. It cannot be
said that this water will not fall else
where. It is known that India, Algeria
and other wide tracts of the world's
surface have suffered from want of
rain. But it may, be suspected that the
sultry and oppressive atmosphere over
lying the United States at present con
tains still a great part of the burden of
vapor gathered during the last hot
term. The putting off of the day of
meteorological equilibrium usually
makes the storms which marks its re
establishment the more violent
County Matters
The board of county commissioners
continued their monthly session yester
day. Messrs. Kendrick & Bixby made ap
plication for license to retail spirituous
and malt liquors in the city, which ap
plication was refused. Several other
dealers presented applications, but
these were withdrawn by the attor
neys for the dealers before action was
had by the board.
Upon the recommendation of Key.
W. T. Walter, superintendent of public
instruction of the county, and the
school committeemen within the cor
porate limits of the city of Charlotte,
that the four school districts within
the city limits be consolidated, it was
ordered by the board that the recom
mendation be adopted, and that the
four wards of the city be known here
after as one consolidated school dis
trict with J. Asbury, J. E. Brown and
. Nye Hutchison as school commit
teemen, and that C Scott E. J. Allen,
W. B.Nisbet and W. M. Wilson be con
stituted a boards of advisers of said
committee.
John Kuck resigned as school com
mitteeman in District No. 27, and Wm.
Wallace was appointed in his stead.
The report of the. superintendent of
gublic instruction of the county for
eptember was received and filed.
The board ordered that the report of
the jury which laid off a public road,
commencing at or nearDr. SamT Aber
nethy's,on theTuckasege road,andfrom
thence to Rozzell's ferry road, at or
near John Frazier's, be received and
confirmed.
The sheriff was allowed the sum of
$1?1.15 for jail fees and feeding prison
ers at the jail during the month of Sep
tember, and $46.40 for summoning 88
regular "and 200 special jurors for the
fall term of court .
Several small -claims were allowed to
different parties for services rendered
and expenses incurred, and the board
then adjourned to meet the first Mon
day in November.

Ai correspondent ' of " the Richmond

ginia, Just over tne Virginia line, ays:
"A company of Pennsy Iranians t have
bought out the mills'1 and property of
-the lumber company at Union and in
Pocahontas county, west VirgtniaVand
will invest heavily in the extension of
the lumber business. About' $40,000

are selling rapidly and at high figures
in view ofnhese improvements. Dr.
Kelly, in company with other gentle
men from Pennsylvania, have recently
leased the mineral lands near Blue Sul

and intend very soon commencing the
mining of these ores, which are said to
be of a most superior quality and con

A New Source of India-Rufcber.
The Scientific American announces
the discovery by Dr. E. R. Heath, along
the previously unexplored borders of
the Beni river, in Bolivia, of abundant
rubber and cinchona forests. As new
rubber forests are to that part of the
world what new gold fields are to the
people of this country, it may readily
oe understood that the rubber "fever
became prevalent after the doctor' an
nouncement of his discovery, and thou
sands set out to penetrate the country
of the cannibals where the forests are
found. The export of rubber, which
was last year 15,000 'pounds, is expected
this year to reach the amount of 750,000
pounds, and next year 6,250,000. '
