Heavy ltckluf&U.
The rainfall of Friday night was the
largest that has occurred in this section

nearly one-third as much as tbe total

at the opera house in this city on the
3id of February, is the lucky possessor
of the rails, spikes and ties used in
building the temporary track around
theFrancklyn cottage at Elberon.N. J.,
where the late President Garfield died.
We understand it is the intention of
Mr. Byron to build on his beautiful
grounds at Long Branch, a Garfield
cabin, to be an exact imitation of the
one in which the President was born.
It is the intention of the possessor of
the spikes and rails to have the rails
cut into small pieces, and together with
the SDikes have them nickel-plated, in
order that they may be used as souven
ire.

Wreck on ih,e Air tlne.
Friday a local freight trin. coming
north over the Air Line road was part
ly wrecked at a point six miles beyond
Greenville, The accident occurred in a
cut, some six or seven loaded cars leav
ing the track, and being completely
wrecked The engine was not thrown
from the track, and so far as is learned
no one was injured. The road was en
tirely obstructed,! and passengers and
mail matter have sinoe the aeoident
been transferred at that point A track
is being laid around the wreck, as the
main line is said to be torn up for a
distance of two hundred yards or more.
It is probable the temporary track was
finished yesterday evening The pas
senger train due herefrom Atlanta at
650 Friday evening t&uea to ar
rive until yesterday about 1 p.m, the
delay being caused in part by the ob
struction of the track.
The road Is reported to be in a very
dangerous condition1 on account of the
continued rains, and an accident at any
time seems to be not a matter of much
surprise to those familiar with tbe con
dition of tbe line.

They also have an Episcopal Church.
Rev. G. D. Gourley, for over two

yet been named.
In a committee report submitted
to the Grand Lodee of the order of
B'nai B'rith, in session last week at
Richmond, Va., occurs the following:
"The persecutions, outrages and in
dignities heaped upon the Israelites of
Russia have scarcely a parallel in the
history of the 'dark ages.' The hydra-
headed monster, fanaticism and bigot
ry, stalks abroad in the so-called liberal
German empire and seeks to devour the
Jew, for no other reason than that he
is becoming too powerful. We must
not lull ourselves to sleep with the fan
cied idea that in this enlightened age
and freest of countries we will be safe
from such attacks. Only by concerted
action, working hand and hand, can we
avert such a catastrophe."
A few days ago the Rev. Father
Flynn, of Morristown, N. J., sought in
struction from Bishop Wiereins as to
the treatment of liquor dealers and
their victims. The Bishop's version of
this interview has just been made pub
lic The Bishop says that he instruct
ed Father Flynn that incorrigible
drunkards should be denied Christian
burial. In regard to persons who sell
liquor indiscriminately to drunkards
and others, contrary to the laws of the
Church and State, they too are to be
treated the same as incorrigible drunk
ards, and their bodies are not to go into
consecrated ground.
Bishop Elder, coadjutor of Arch
bishop Purcell, has issued a call for a
provincial council to be held in Cincin
nati, beginning March 5. It will be the
first provincial council held there since
1859, and fourth in the history of the
province, which includes the Dioceses
of Cincinnati, Covington, Louisville,
Vincennes, Fort Wafne, Detroit, Cleve
land and Columbus. The council is
called under the special authorization
of the holy chair in Rome. The official
call directs the faithful to observe the
17th of February as a fast-day, and di
rects what prayers shall be said at mass
in order "to secure the special protec
tion of the Holy Ghost in the doings of
the council."
Olirer Doud Brroo.
'Across the Continent," Mr. Oliver
Doud Byron's specialty piec, which
will be presented at the opera house
next Friday night, February 3d, is gen
erally considered one of tbe best plays
of its class, as it certainly is one of the
most successful, having completed the
decade of its unparalleled career. This
is to be explained by the fact that it is
on a large scale, requiring really the
services of two ordinary companies to
portray it; and also by the careful,
spirited acting Mr. Byron throws into
it, in the leading part of the Ferret
There are few parts of the country that
have not seen and applauded the char
acteristic American work, which itself
includes widely varying scenes taken
from the heart of New York and from
the wild gorges of the Rocky Moun
tains respectively. Not only is there
excitme melo-drama, hairbreadth es
capes, and a grand closing tableau of
rescue by "United States troops," but
in the Droloeue there is a full concert
scene, giving half an hour's agreeable
interlude of fun and minstrelsy by
capable performers
Wh at Say the JIanaremenU
Th oninion has been expressed by a
large number who witnessed the enter
tainment given at the opera house Fri
night that a repetition of the pro
gramme could be ffiven with the assu-
o '
ranee of success. It can be reproduced
with little trouble or expense, and we
would suggest to the originators the
propriety of keeping the organization
up by occasional rehearsals and at the
proper time put it on the boards again
What say the management f
In this connection we desire to men
tion the characters ol ".Fashion" ana
'Relieion," taken in the auction, by
Misses Cornelia White and Lula Wns
ton respectively, '-both of which were
portrayed in a superior manner, while
the costume of each was exceedingly
handsome and appropriate. The omis
sion of their names in the notice of the
play was inexcusable, but was the re
sult of the lateness of the hour at which
it was written.

Destroying? the Wheat.
The cicadula exitiosa, or grasshopper,
is reported to have made its appear
ance in the county again, and to be do
ing considerable damage to the wheat
and oat crop. It will be remembered
that two yeas ago this insect ravaged
the wheatfields of this section and de
vastated acres of the growing crop in
this eounty and several others adjoin
ing, as well as in the upper portion of
South Carolina.
So far this season the presence of the
destroyer is only noticeable in fields
where grass grew last summer. It is
said by some of the farmers that in
such places the insect has already de
stroyed portions of the crop, while no
trace of them can be found where the
ground was kept clear of grass last
year. The damage done to the crop in
this section two years ago was of - suf
ficient magnitude to engage the atten
tion of the department of agriculture
and to the end that a remedy might be
provided Prof. J. H. Comstock, entomol
ogist, visited Charlotte for the purpose
of investigating the matter, but so far
no adequate remedy has been suggest
ed to meet the difficulty.
Still in Doubt.
Hon. D. A. Jenkins, of Gaston, passed
through the city yesterday on his way
from Washington City, where he has
been for saveral weeks looking after
his interests in the contest now going
on at Washington over the collector-
ship of this internal revenue district
As to who will be the lucky man is still
a matter of doubt bet "Uncle Dave"
thinks the signs point to himself as the
future collector. The very sudden man
ner in which he "pied" the programme
of Mott and Cooper after he got fairly
woke up to business gives color to the
probability that if he don't get the of
fice himself he will succeed in downing
Cooper.
The cause for the delay in making
the appointment can only be conjec
tured, but it is more than likely that
the recent birth of an independent
movement in the State has caused a
halt until it can be ascertained what
can be done in making the appoint
ment to aid the party. . Or, it may be
at that the delay is due to the recent in
troduction of a resolution in Congress
looking to an investigation into the af
fairs of the office as administered by
tbe present incumbent. If this should
be the cause of the postponement and
the investigation proves the allega
tions set forth in the resolution to be
true, then the chances of Mott's favor
ite will diminish in proportion to the
damage done his "engineer" by the pro
posed inquiry.
The situation at present is about this :
Mott and Cooper have Raum pledged
to their support, while Jenkins claims
the President, who has the appointing
power. If Jenkins fails to get the ap
pointment, he claims to nave tne sup-
pert of a sufficient number of Republi
cans, witn nis Democratic support in
the Senate, to defeat Cooper's confirma
tion.
Our Public Roadw.
To the Editor of The Observer:
The deplorable condition of our pub
lic roads is destroying the local com
merce of Charlotte during the winter
and early spring months, and is sub
jecting our country friends, whom ne
cessity compels to trade here, to endure
burdens and nardsnips unparalleled in
civilized countries. It would make
this communication too long to speak
of the roads in the county, so I will on
ly allude to those in Charlotte town
ship, as ail tne people or tne county are
interested in them. To say that the
roads are "bad," "worse than they ever
were" or "impassable," conveys but a
faint idea of their condition to those
who have not attempted to go over
them.
Strangers visiting this city, wishing
to see the surrounding country, turn
back in disgust at our city limits, and
express astonishment that the culture
and progress of Charlotte has not im
pressed itseii upon tne country arouna
it. Charlotte township contains (ac
cording to the census) a larger country
population than any township in the
county; and only about twenty fami
lies of this population attend church,
not because they do not desire to at
tend, but because the condition of our
public roads renders it impossible for
them to attend. I would be glad if you
would interview the Rev. Dr. Mattoon,
who has spent much of hi3 life as a
missionary in the heathern lands of the
Orient and ask him, if in all his trav
els throucrh christian, semi-chnstian or
heathen lands, he has ever seen a peo
ple so blockaded against their places of
worsnip, as are tne country people or
this township. And also ask him if he
has ever seen a neoDle whose local
commerce is subjected to such an oner
ous tax as ours. I feel sure that he
will answer in the negative. Many of
our people are out of corn and forage,
and many more will De Derore tne ides
of March. Necessity compels them to
come here for it and they will not tot-
tret the fearful tax exacted upon that
corn or that forage Dy our miseraDie
public roads. The condition of our
public roads is due to our road law, as
evidenced Dy tne condition oi tne iseat
tie's ford road, where overseer William
Little, (noted for energy and good
iudement) expended the entire labor
provided Dy law. Any man wno win
ride in a vehicle irom tne city limits to
the township line on said road, will be
thoroughly convinced tnat our road
law is not onlv a farce and a sham, but
amounts to a crime against equity, jus
tice, progress ana civilization. And
when he covud recaii to mina tnat tne
same J-eeisiaiure mat passed tnis
road law passed a law against cruelty
to animals, he "would be disgusted to
think that the legislature ot a ereat
State should perpetrate a practical and
cruel ioke upon tne people, xne uem
ocratic party is soieiy responsiDie ior
this evil, and it is its duty to correct it.
. . - . . S m
The nartv leaders may think that the
"March winds" will blow away dissat
isfaction," but they will nnd out too
late that the people have memories
that are good, at least for a year.
