Chicago, III NE1GHB Counties. CLEVELAND. Shelby Star. May 27th. Mr. John H. Wood will contest with Mayor-elect T. G. Smith for the may oraltyshipof Rutherfonl ton. Suit will be entered at th. ajipnaching term of Rutherford Superior Court. Pajjjy Morris, a half bread ne ro, was found dead in the woods near King's Mountain a few days ago. He was 72 years old and a barber and was given over to dissipation. The Gas tonia News says there was no foul play suspected and he was buried without an inquest. Mr. A. B. Dorsey, of Belwood, has had a singular -experience with the fly and has been poison ed twice by his bites. Last year a fly bit him on the hand where the skin had been knocked off and his hand and arm was great ly swollen as a result, and it gave him much pain. A solution of warm water and carbolic acid was applied vigorously for a day and the swelling was reduced and the pain eased and it was soon well. A few davs.ago he had the same experience again, except that the bite was on the other hand. He tried the same remedy and a complete cure re sulted. Mr. D. L. Jarrett, of Gastonia, was here Monday on his way to Lawndale to visit friends and relatives. Mr. Jarrett tells us of a very sad accident which occur red in the old Gastonia Mill Mon day morning before he left. A young man, Charlie McGhee, in the card room got his clothing caught in the belt and he was thrown against a rod and his neck broken. He died in tt few moments. He was about 24 years old and leaves a wife and two children. He was a Chris tain and a member of the Junior Order. Mr. -E.G. Grigg, of Patterson Springs, besides being a clever gentleman and a good fanner, is a lucky man. About two weeks ago he had an empty bee gum sitting up in the loft of his black smith shop and ii stray swarm of hees came in and settled. Thev have been there ever since and are busy making honey. The folks who havG signs tell us that for a swarm of bees to come to Your house will bring vou good luc k, so in this view Mr. 'Gi igg is twice luckv. ti,., .1 ,.,.4.i l ..: i lie ii x weaiuer nas prjiuii- cally made the what crop. It is true that the crop is remarkably short, but it would not ha ye been half so good if it had not been for the dry weather we have had during the past few weeks. Mr. Charles Cabaniss, a splendid far mer of No. 7 township, says his wheat held looked as though it was absolutely wort mess a month ago, but it has come out and appears to be a fairly good head now, and is almost waist high. An ecclesiastical council of the Baptist church met in Sylva last week and heard the case of Rev. T. Bright, wh was susjeiiled from the church and its ministry uu uiii.8uuiiin.uwii .m the cherry tree Swindle. I lie Presbytery heard his confession I .

WATAUGA. Boone Democrat, May 28th. As the jail still remains empty and the docket is exceedingly light, we may expect a short term of court this time. Rev. B. F. Hi lrgett Ot the Boone circuit has made arrange ments for a junior preacher on his circuit for the summer sea son, the Rev. C. R. Ross, of More head Citv. Moses H. Cone gives $500.00 to the Appalachian Training School for Teachers. Mr. Cone is a public spirited man and is do ing much for Watauga county. News reaches us that the upper part of Wilkes county was visit ed by a hail storm on last Sun day, doing much damage to the wheat and other growing crops. We are told that the hail lay on the ground to a depth of 4 inches, in some sections, and when it melted the ground was fairly flooded with water. The building committee ap pointed for the Appalachian Training School building, iscom- posed of the following gentle men : Messrs. M oses H . Cone and E. F. Lotilr, of Watauga; E. T Moore, of Caldwell; T. C. Bowie, of Ashe, and .1. Riley rritcbnrd, of Mitchell. The committee will have its first meeting within the next few davs, a site will be selected and work on the brick for the building will be begun at once. On last Thursday, during the absence of Pastor Hargett and family, some parties took the privilege of forcibly entering the parsonage which in most cases is a violation of the law. But on the preacher's return, he found on investigation that the intruders were not mischief bent, but that some good ladies of the village had been there, spread the table, loaded it with choice eatables and left it in readiness for the family. The kindness was high ly appreciated and the family feels grateful to those who were guilty of the much appreciated house breaking. The negroes, poor del tided crea. tures, think that'the Northern people are their friends and any one can see with his eyes half shut that they boycot the ne- occasions. An ex .i . . - ciiange says mar ar. tne town oi Southern Tines in this State, an entirely Northern settlement, ne- groesare not employed nor al lowed to live there. CALDWELL. Lenoir News, May 29th.

In proportion to population there arc more old maids In the Bermudas than In any other part of the world. This is true of all classes of the population, but especially of tne oldest and wealth iest families, who have been connected with, the islands ever since they were colonized by the Virginia company in 1012. Five out of six of the daughters of the old planting- families do not marry In spite of the fact that they are pret ty, with a delicate rose flush type of beauty, extremely well bred and ac- compllshed and just as nice as girls possibly be. Their failure to mar ry is a standing source of wonder to the whole of the West Indies. An antiquated law is undoubtedly responsible in part for this state of things. By this law provision is made for the daughters to take shares of a landed estate when their father dies, hut If one marries she loses her for tuue- " te keu awy and Bnard among the others.

It also contained a large keyboard. There are drawings of that period extant which represent the organ as an instrument having but few pipes, blown by two or three per sons and usually performed on by a monk. The keys, which were played upon by hard blows of the fist, were very clumsy and from four to six Inch es broad. 7 semitones were Introduced into the I keyboard, but to .11 appearances Its compass did not extend beyond three L,t,T. The tntrodu.on of nednla in u&o by Bernhardt giving a compass B flat to A was another Important contribution to the instrument. These were merely small pieces of wood op erated by the toe of the player. PiSTK and Hla Pig;. An old Kentucky indictment bas been brought to our attention which al leged that defendant "did unlawfully, willfully and maliciously kill and de stroy one pig, the personal property of George Plgg, without the consent of said Pigg. the said pig being of value to the aforesaid George Pigg. The pig thus killed was the mate to some other pigs that were owned by said George Plgg, which left George Plgg a pig less than he (said Pigg) had of pigs and thus ruthlessly tore said pig from the society of George Pigg-s other pigs against the peace and dignity of the commonwealth of Kentucky." Case and Comment OPTICAL ILLUSIONS. They Are Oftentlmea the Ga of Collisions nt Sen. Speaking of collisions at sea. a aea captain recently said: "I think I can explain the cause of many collisions which otherwise seem to be mysterious. Tbey arise from the fact that green and red are comple mentary colors. Every ship under way nfrht a rod licrht burninir on her left or port side and a green light I 1 I it rw .Iai4uion1 etia yet vessels go crashing into eacn other ODon nights when these lights must be plainly visible from their decks. Ana I WUCU I-"" Iu """" an euort is maae to esiauiisu uiv blame of the accident honest men swear directly opposite to each other and believe they are telling the truth. "The captain of one ship, for in stance, will swear that be saw a red light on his port bow and neld nis course. A little later he saw a green light there, starboarded his helm, and the collision followed. The men on tne other ship swear that where the cap- tain says be saw a green light a red light was burning. "Now. how does tnis nappenr it nap- pens this way: The captain looks for awhile Intently at the red light on the other vessel. Then for some reason he changes his line of vision, probably due to a bulging sail above the light, and, lo. he sees at once a green light, shifts his helm, and, crash, he goes Into herl He really does not see any light at all when be looks at the salL but an optical Illusion makes him think be does. Try it yourself. Just gaze Intently at a bright red, round object for awhile and then suddenly look at a blank white wall.- A green spot will appear to you.

When in the middle ages an author at any European university desired to publish his thoughts his book was read over twice ln the presence of the au thorities and if approved might be cop led and exposed for sale, a practice in which the germs for state licensing may be readily distinguished. It was evidently necessary, however, to keep a strict watch over the persons em ployed ln this business, and the stat utes of the University of Taris show that the booksellers were subjected to a very severe discipline. They were obliged to keep a list of the books they sold and to exhibit their scale of charges, and they were forbidden to purchase any manuscript till it had been duly approved by the authorities and publicly exposed to view for four days. j I StoToa of the Middle Aarea. The stoves of the middle ages and of the era of the Roman empire and throughout Germany and Scandinavia generally were built of brick, tiles or similar material and were so large as to be stationary, sometimes taking up the whole side of a room, and ln the latter country ln winter the couches and blankets were spread thereon and the family used them ln lieu of the bedsteads of subsequent years. The fire was built at the bottom, and the heat and smoke passed through va rious flues, distributing warmth, before they made their exit to the chimney. Some of them were faced with porco- lain and were highly ornamental, A Fool'a Retort. One day at the court of Ferdinand II. a silly courtier fancied that he could amuse those present by his frivolities, which prompted Jonas, Ferdinand's fa vorite fool, to answer him according to his folly. But this so enraged the court ier that he shouted: "Fellow, be silent. I never stoop to talk with a fool." "Well, I do," retorted Jonas, "and therefore be good enough to listen to me ln your turn." Madeira Inland Honda. In the whole of the Madeira Islands there are no wheeled vehicles, for the roads are too rough and mountainous. There are a few heavy sledges'drawn by bullocks, but the favorite modes of locomotion are hammocks slung oa poles and borne by natives and basket sledges. The latter are used for de scending the mountains and are skill fully guided by a runner behind. Lockr Choice. Mrs. Crawford She married a car penter. Mrs. Crabshaw Isn't that Just love ly!
