The liihlioal Recorder recently
said editorially:
"We need u campaign throughout
North Carolina in behalf of econoniv
in public administration, and es
pecially in our towns and cities. We
should never stop until affairs are
conducted us private affairs are. In
some ot our towns we notice' tln-v
are maintaining departments of Lit in
and French in the free schools. This
isan imposition. We should be con
tent to confine instruction in our free
schools to reading, waiting, arith
metic, geography and history. The
pretentious efforts of the superintend
ents to make frving-sizc colleges of
the graded schools tlioul.l I.i. unj
pressed by the school boards."
Rural Libraries.
One of the best articles we have
read on the importance and value of
rural libraries is the following from
the Greenville Reflector:
"There is no more important ques
tion relating to education, and, in
deed, the future greatness of the
state, than that of rural libraries.
We who were "brought up in the
country' can appreciate the joy of
having all the books one wants to
read, hong years ago we used to
walk miles and miles to borrow a
dilapidated "Robinson Crusoe" or
"Gulliver's Travels," and iu our
hearts there waa ever some regret
we could not have the works our
aouls craved. We led a narrow life,
we country boys and girls. We
didn't know much about railroads
and theaters. We longed unceasing
ly for knowledge of the world that
lay beyond our father', farms. We
dreamed of the day w hen we should
be 21 a man and free and how we
should kiss the mother good-bye and
walk brisklyolown the lane, ont of
the white road, past the ore h aid and
hay meadow and on to the city.
But it teemed like the age of a pat
riarch from 15 t" 21, and we wanted
to know THEN we wanted to know
all about WsitflT Scott and hit days
of chivalry. The few ptigv. we had
found of I'Vniniore Cooper's fired our
heait ..ml soul with" desire to know
tii'iv out the world as it had been
and as it is.
Well, some of us grew up and
saw t'ie scenes we longed to see, and
lived in the joy of a dream come
true,
trv i
at we never forgot the coun
y .".ml the longing of his heart.
;e rural libraries will mean
mi higher life in every home
i icii their influence enters,

.11 l.v isolation anil penury.
Tli.-'
v. i.i write their legend plain
upon tile brows of those who' seek
them. Thev will educate a boy or
I'irl'.- hear, as noseliool can evel do.
Ki : the honor ami glory of the
-tale and the coming nee, let no one
lift hand to oppose rntal libraries."

Mysterious Accident at Trinity.
A very unfortunate accident oc
curred near town Sunday night,
which is very mysterious in tho be
giniiiug and has pu..led the heads
of many as well as the one to which
the accident occurred. The story is
this: Mr J V Keains a young lnun
who lives a few miles north of town,
had been visiting in the place ami
left with the intention of going home
between the hours of 10 and 11
o'clock. Air Kearns did not arrive
at home until sometime after mid
night and in dazed e-r unconcious
cordition, with his hat, coat and
'loves missing. One of his gloves
was found the next morning about
one hundred yards from the place
where he had been visiting the night
he fine, and still farther on his coat
which had been turned wrong side
out even to the sleeves, and his hat
some distance from his coat iu the
same condition and still another
glove was found between this place
and Atehdale. His buggy was also
found at Arc'hdale in an nil right
condition and the horse which he
was driving ciinic home the next
morning with the harness tied up
all right, and with the appearance of
having been driven hard.
The young man has been in a daz
ed condition most of the time since
the accident up to this writing.
There are times when he conies to
his senses and when nked how the ac
cident happened, says he docs not
know a thing aliout it. There are
many theories as to how it hapjieiied
but from the circumstances it looks
like the work of some human hands.
The people of the community urc
greatly stirred up and especial'y in
lli'h 1'oint where the young man
runs a luoti table grocery store. It is
said that the father and brothers of
the young man say they will find out
how it happened ut any cost. The
young man has a deep gash on his
head and his face is very much bruis
ed up which looks as though he had
been d rtigged some distance. It is
very much hoped that how the ocei
dent happen it will tie found out and
if done by uny person or persons
they should be severely punished.

A HOUSE O'DKEAMS
Not a house to dream in, but the
house that many a one has dreamed
or, the home that one has planned
for some future day when he can
afford to reali.e it in fact, and which
embodies all his ideals of individual,
family and neighborly happiness.
In The Delineator for October, Miss
Clara E. Liiughlin writes of this
House o'Dreams, and the paper will
sti ike a chord of sympathy in every
reader, lor it gives a broad, beautiful
conception of the external features
of a "home, rrom library to kitch
en, up-stuirs nnd down-stairs, in bed'
room and hall, it is perfectly, hap
pily planned, aud the many varied
needs of the home it meets in every
detail. It is indeed a house to dream
of, and proscctive home-builders
will find therein a fund of sugges
liveness as well as a wealth of seuti
ment to illumine the bare details of
architect's plans and estimates.
It is a pretty safe presumption
that people who habitually avoid,
whether of low or high degree, are
comjielled to steal or gamble in order
Like the runninsr. brook, the
rea Diooa mat nows through
the veins has to come from
somewhere.
