Mar. 21st. The fruit in the mountain sec tions remains unhurt and if the cold snaps continue to come a while longer, a good fruit year is almost assured. The home of Mrs. Rivers came near being destroyed by fire on Sunday night, caused by the explosion of a lamp. It took a valiant effort to subdue the flames. Miss Callie, da lighter of Mr. and Mrs. James Coffev. died at her home last week of typhoid fever. This is the first death, so far, out of the eight cases in the family, but we are told that the father and mother remain critically ill. SURGEON'S KNIFE NOT NEEDED.

Gastonia Gazette, March 20th. Tuesday morning while watch ing her fifteen year old brother burn brush in the orchard, Min nie Grmble, the nine year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. T. W. Gamble,- who lives four miles southwest of town on the rail road, ventured too near the flafmes, as a result of which her clothing caught fire and she'vvas so horribly burned that death followed within twelve hours. As soon as herclothingignited, the frightened girl ran frantically toward the house, the breeze fanned flames rapidly enveloping her bod v. The brother made a desperate effort to reach her but failed. Her father, hearing the wild screams of his daughter, ran to her and threw his coat around her body. He was too late, however, to rescue her from a terrible fate, almost every thread of clothing already having been consumed by the names. Dr. Garrison, of Bessemer, and Dr. Frank Wilson, of Gastonia, were summoned and did what they could to relieve the suffer ing. After about twelve hours of intense aironv. the little suf ferer died at 7:40 o'clock Tues day evening. The funeral services were con ducted yesterday afternoon at 2 o'clock by Dr. J. C. Galloway, at the Pisgah Presbyterian church, and the bodv laid to rest in the cemetery at that place.

Noble An Old Lady Has a Narrow Escape from Burning. Newton Enterprise, March 21ts. Mrs. Adliue llamsaur Ander son, of Statesville, died Monday night. She has many relatives in Catawba and Lincoln counties. She was seventy-two 3rears old. We have noticed great loads of baled hay,' shucks, fodder and straw going to the depot for shipment elsewhere. There are not many counties in the State that have more feedstuff of this kind than they, need for home consumption. The wife of Prof. M. C. S. Noble, of the State University, died at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimorelast Thursday night. She is. remembered in Newton as Miss Alice Yarborough, a teaclrer in the Newton Normal School one or more summers. Mrs. II. H. Bost died Saturday night about 10 o'clock and was buried at 3 p. m. Sunday. Mrs. Bost was Miss Gill, and was a sister of Mrs. S. T. Wilfong and Mrs. G. A. Warlick. She leaves a husband and five children. The children are two daughters, Mrs. S. L. Herman and Miss Lottie Bost, and three sons, Duke, Arthur and Roger. Miss Liza Rudisill, a very old and infirm lady of Newton had a narrow escape from burning Wednesday morning. She was kindling a fire in her room. The wrappings around her head and neck caught on fire and she gave the alarm. Mr. Luther Ypder, who was in the adjoining room, got the things off in time to save her life. She is' quite, painfully burned on the face, neck and breast, but not seriously. Mr. Yoder's hands are also badly burned. LINCOLN. To Build a Cotton Factory Near Kil- derbrand Killed by a Falling Tree Death of Mr. Win. T. Long. Lincolnton Journal, March 21st. There are 11 prisoners in jail 11 m ill -t now, all or wnom will oe tried at the coming term of court. Mr. W. Miller, who is moving from this county to Salisbury, lost all of his household goods in the tire at the Narrow Gauge de pot. I On Thursday, the 13th, Mr. yVm. T. Long passed away after a short illness, of 24 hours. Death was caused by neuralgia of the heart. Deceased was G4 years of age. His death was a shock to the people of this community. The f uneraljservicesield werea t Hull's Chapel by J. J. Gray. A wife and and five childred survive him. Perry Gantt, who lived on Mr. W. A. Costner's place, was killed last Thursday by a falling tree. He was cutting the tree when it fell, in an unexpected direction. As soon as he saw the tree begin ning to fall, he made an effort to get out of the way, but was struck on the head and shoulder and knocked unconscious. Death followed almost immediately. A wife and one child survive. A corporation will be organ ized soon composed of Messrs- J. C. Quickel, A. L. Quickcl and D. W. Aerholdt and others, for the purpose of erecting a Cotton mill on Henry's river, in Burke coun ty, near Hilderbrand station. The capacity will be 5,000 spind les, which will be ultimately in creased to 10,000. The power will be obtained by erecting a dam on Henry's river, which has ample power for a-mill of this capacity. A PRINTER GREATLY SUR PRISED. "I never was so much sur prised in my life, as I was with the result of using Chamber lain's Pain Balm," says Henry T. Crook, pressman of the Asher ville ( N. C. ) Gazette. "I con tracted a severs case of rheu matism early last winter byget tingmy feet wet. I tried sever al things for it without benefit. One day while looking over the Gazette. I noticed that Pain Balm was positivelyguaranteed to cure rheumatism, so bought a bottle of it and before using two thirds of it my rheumatism had taken its night and I have not had a rheumatic pain since."

A. Bristol, of Morgan ton, was in town Tuesday. We are afraid the very cold snap this week has killed the fruit. A company of 25 persons left here Tuesday night for Canton, Ohio. Mrs. Clercy Wi throw died at her home several miles east of Marion Monday. Messrs. Hugh and Ben Conley and families left Monday on the west-bound train for California. The Gospel Teacher says Miss Mattie Perry, who has been very sick all winter, is improving fast. It seems to be generally under stood that the Southern will ike charge of the S. C. and G.

Gates, one of the Emma postoffice bur glars, was in the gang." Mrs. Mary Elliott, wife of Mr. C. D. Elliott, died suddenly at her home in town on Monday last, leaving ten children, besides a number of other relatives to mourn her loss. This is one of the saddest deaths that has oc curred in our midst. Her young est child is only a few weeks old and the oldest is vet a child. The workmen are tearintr the old court house to pieces. When finished, as it soon will be, but few, if anv, familiar features will remain. The large columns will be retained inat s all. in ap pearance the building will be neAV, hardly recognizable. To the old citizen there is something pathetic in parting with the old court house. It was built just after McDowell county was es tablished. about the year 1844. To him it recalls man v images of exciting times that awaken pleasurableemotions. But stern old Father Time takes no cogni zance of ourj feelings. He is al ways doing all he can to obliter ate memories. The Galax Industry. Boone Democrat. There are few people who have an idea ot the magnitude of the galax (colt's foot) industry in some ot the mountain counties and the amount ot revenue it yields to those who gutber for the locul dealer, as well as to the dealers themselves, who ship them to the northern markets by the millious, where they are used for decorat itig, etc. The leaves are gathered and sorted, tied in bunches of twenty seven each, aud bring from 2:) to 25 cents per thousand on the home market, and we are told that a ten-year boy or girl can make 50 to 75 cents per day gathering them. Mr. J. B. Johnson, who is an ex tensive buyer, tells us that last year Watauga aud Mitchell alone, slnpped 75,000,000 leaves, which, wheu reduced to dollars and cents, means $15,000, distributed among a class that needs it worst. The crop, Mr. Johnsou remarked, is here to s'ay, as thinning the leaves only makes finer and more mar ketable ones the toilowiirg year, aud the millions that have beeu gathered fioiu the heights of the Grandfather within the past few years does not. seem to have di minished the supply but little.

OUR RALEIGH LETTER. NEWS FROM the STATE CAPITAL Greensboro and the State Convention May Not Tackle Senatorship Ques tionThe Campaign of Education Various Matters of Interest. Correspondence of The News-Herald. Raleigh, March 24. We have ceitiinly passed through a diversi fied cliraatical experience during the past week, with the thermome ter dancing np and down between 10 and 20 degrees from summer heat to twelve below the freezing point between, suns and of course the perennial spring urediction of the killing of the peach crop is a gain beard. Now, in most States those who can afford it jonruey a long dis tanceto seek a "change of cli mate" (one of the favorite prescrip tions of the family physician), but in North Coroliua we don't have to do that the climato comes ro us, in all sorts of temperatures and grabs, and the poor as well as" the licb may "enjoy" it, if they can. Notwithstanding this great bless ing the subjects of neuialgia and rheumatism and corns and the like think they have a kick coming - to them against the weather maker, to sa.V nothing of the timid indivii- n us who f-care themselves half to death with thoughts 'ot possible a'tacks of grip and pneumonia and an early introduction to a newly dug grave. The joiut meeting of the Demo eratiu State Executive and Cen tral Committees, which is to set the time and select the place for holding the next Democratic State begins here to mor row night and you are notified to orace jourseii against a surprise iu case Greensboro gets the eon veut:on instead of Raleigh. At this writing it looks very much like that will be the result of the Piedmont city's tall hustling and the capital city's comparative in activity and block beadedness. (jheensboro nas not only set its influential men and good talkers to work on the committeemen, but nas actually secured the "proxies" of about every member who will not attend the meeting, all of whom will therefore be represented hv Greensboro's friends a fact in itself almost sufficient to capture the committee. In addition to that the splendid hotel accommoda tions which Greensboro will soon have (the big new 200 room "Ben bow" now approaching completion. in addition to the new "Guilford" and the McAdoo and Clegg hotels, all of which are beir,g enlarged, I believe) are being presented and pushed more earnestly thau the auditorium question. This is pro bablv due to the fact that it has been learned that the new Greens boro auditoriumis uolarger than the Haleigh Academy of Music, while, besides, Raleigh will doubtless double the capacity of the latter before the time for the conven "iiou to meet arrives. So, while Llaleigh can offer a larger hall. Greensboro can offer more and better hotel accommodations, and the latter realizing that "the way to a man's heart is through his stomach," has not been slow to see its advantage aud grasp it with a readiness that shows enterprise aud pluck Some people and newspapers ap pear to have an idea that at this meeting would be practically set tled the modus operandi of nom inating the Democratic candidate for Senator. But It can be stated in advance that the committee canu t "settle" it, aud will uot es- sav to do so, because it has no! the authority or power. The most that it could do would be, to "re commend" a primary or conven tion nomination (,f a departure from the old method was favored by the majority of ibe committee, which i regarded as uot probable). and it way decline to do that, in case tbr. majority favor a change, for several very eood reasons. The old method of no'iiinatiug the Sen ator by a caucus ot those wuo are to elect him, it elected at all, the legislators, will probably continue to obtain with bth parties for many years to come.

Populists a few yearg ago, of elect ing Senators by the direct vote of the people, aud taken op by an element of the Democrats, is now losing ground and will never be- "e, "J? the ablest of the Democratic Sen tors now oppose .the change, and practically all the liepnbhcans. The trainers of our Constitution knew what they were doing when they proTided the method of elect ing members of the 'upper branch7 of Congress.'' The "people" lo e their heads sometimes, and need to be saved from themselves and history furnishes numerous and convincing proofs of the truthful ness of that assertion. The e ecntive committee of the North Carolina Association of Ed acators, recently organized here, composed of Governor Aycock, President C. D, Mclver of the State Normal and Industrial Col lege, and Superintendent of In Bti action Joyner, held a conference here last week, and arranged for a series of educational rallies aud conferences ot county superinten dents in several accessible points as boou as possible. A large at- teudance is hoped for, and a num ber o enthusiastic educational ad dresses, wiih the superintendents of each group of counties. An iu stitute of county superintendents, lasting a day or two, will be held at each poiut, conducted by the State Superintendent for the pur pose ot securing and giving inform ation about the educational'con- dition aud needs, of counties rep resented, preparatory to inaugur ating educational campaigns in those sections where the conditions are favorable. The forceB are to be couceutrated in localities where me sentiment and conditions are favorable to substantial school im provement. By the aid of the Southern Educatioual Board the railway fare of county superinten dents attending will bo paid and the meetings will be held at poiuts where free entertainment for them can oe obtained. It is hoped to secure low railroad rates. The first meetiDg will be held at Greeusboro, April 3d aud 4th, and Governor Aycock will be one of those to make addresses. Presi deut Mclver will probably speak also. He is tirelesss in his efforts to further the great cause of edu cation in North Carolina. Senator Pritchard, who is now State Chairman of the Republican party, has issued a call for a meet ing of the Republican Executive Committee to meet at Greensboro April 5, at which meeting the time and place for the next Republican State Convention will be fixed. Superintenpent of Instruction Joyner sent out a lletter Saturday to the superintendents of schools urging the importance of exchang ing all old school books for new ones before July 1.

Chapel Hill Soys as Debaters. Correspondence of The News-Herald. Perhaps it will be of some in terest to the readers of the News- Hebald to know what their State University is doiug in the line of debating and other literary work, and I therefore shall write a short sketch of the spring program. It bas been claimed by some of the leading papers of the State that the University is neglectiug de bating for her interest in athletics, but however well she stands among the Southern colleges -m athletics, she appears equally as well in con tests of debating. -On March the 13th our two rep resentatives, Mr. R. R. Williams, of Jfewtou, and Mr. D. P. Stern, of Scotland Neck, met the represent atives of John Hopkins Universi ty, in Baltimore, in an inter-collegiate coutest and won a glorious victory. The question for discus sion was, "Resolved, That Modern Trusts Threaten the Future Wel fare of the American People." The Carolina representatives had the negative. During the mouth of April we have two more iuter-collegiate de bates, one with the Uuiversitv of Georgia and the other with Van derbilt University. In the past five annual debates between the University of N. C. and Universi ty of Georgia the Tar Heels were victorious in three. In the first two with the representatives of Vanderbilt the University of N. C. won in both, aud we are only waiting for April to add one more victory to our list over both Georg ia and Vanderbilt. It seems that the University is doing her full duty in the arena of debating, as well as in athletics. Student. Chapel Hill, March IS. , For Over Sixty Tears.
