During the past three week, there has
been great excitement la furaituie cir
cle, and it cam be justly attributed to
the prices which' Blair has been selling
at during that period. The; prices
came upon the public unannounced and
unexpected in fa forcible and startling
manner, and buyers could scarcely be
lieve that ithey were as low as adver
ted. Month ago Blair saw that an ad
vance in wholesa'e prices was inevitable
Ihis summer and fialB, and being fore
warned, he bought while prices were de
pressed. The recent rise in wnolsale
prices averaged fifteen per cent., and
Blair profltited ito 'that amount, and) hence
his prices now are just Una much lower
than, those who purchased after the ad
vance. His present stock cannot laac
always, (however, and now ds your time
to buy at No. 45 Patlton avenue.
"NO HARM
IN TRYI&G."
While we are imi
tating Louisiana in
'the making cf bad
laws why not estab
lish a Louisiana 'Lotteiry in ..North Caro
lina and increase itlhe revenues of ithe
etate? Oh, but that would be iQ'Iegal!
Yes, but so i the grandfather clause
of the Louisiana disfranchising amend
ment illegal. No one cian eay it isn't.
The best that1 can be done is to set up
a claim that "if it comes to the courts"
tffey will be etruck blind to the fact.
The Louisiana ilofctery flourished for a
whil " efore dt was declared a viola
tion of law. The Louisiana constitu
tional amendment, supported in the
same way, wi'iL go on for a time, in
spite of the fact that the leading men
of Louisiana, including its two United
States senatons, have said it was an
unconstitutional act. We are asked to
"try" the Louisiana! amendment it
"can do no harm" to let the counts pass
on. it. The state needs freeing from a
bugiaboo known as "negro domination,"
manufactured out of straw by ia firm
chartered by Jtself last autumn. Tni3
firm, which did a lucrative business in
1898, 1 ty put lits manufactured arti
cle on the market again soon. The
firm is known as the "White Suprema
cy 4tompariy,' with Simmons, Ay
cock and others charter member. The
state aSsof needs increased revenues.
The constitutional amendment will
supersede "negro domiinaition" and
knock out a, few dozen thousand white
voters, a4id the North Carolina lottery
would furnish the money to run the
stifle If a constitutional amendment
for a lottery coujd be submitted, and
with an election Haw that couLd be re
lied upon to pass iti even if the people
should vote it down, we might fill the
treasury before the police got after
ua That the courts would not declare
a lottery law illegal, even if the statr.
ufces do .pronounce it so, lis easily to be
seen ; if It comes before the court as the
"will of ithe majority" (a. e., the "White
Supremacy company limited),' when
ywe consider the arguments in tlhe par
allel case of ithe disfranchising' amend
ment by such eminent authorities as H.
G. Connor of the Simmons, Ayoock &
Co. firm. Mr. Connor says: "It will be
observed that when adopted it" (the
disfranchising amendment) "will not
be a mere adi of the Qegrislature, but
the wiMi of the entire people of the state
in truth and in fact the eitate's col-i
1-ected wiWt This will next be set laside
or dnvailidated except upon clear, c'on
cluedve and unmistakable evidence of
the violation! of the federal constitu
tion. Every presumption will be in fa
vor of the will of the people." And in
order that the will of the people cannot
go astray an election daw that will pull
It around on the side of the White Su
premacy company has h,een construct

Th second international Zionist con
fess at Basel, Switzerland, has begun.
The Zionists advocate the creation of a
Jewish nation Hn Palestine. Dr. Max
Nordau is one of the chief (leaders in
the movement. Out of the 450 delegate
at the congress morethan a score are
Americans; Dr. NordajUt says:1 "The
sittings of the congress will last three
days. I consider thetnost important
subject that wttll he discussed the cre
, altion of a Jewish colonial trust bank
situated in , London. Our idea is to give
this plan practical, form. The congress
will receive reports from Various coun

It -realty looks as "if a "crisis" were,
approaching at Rennes in which some
people will be hurt. Troops from Paris
nd civilian scalawags from Paris
boith perhaps equally dangerous to the
peace of Renhea are gathering in large
numbers in the city where Dreyfus is
on tria, according to the Gazette's de
spatches today, and Rennesi itself is
up to the top notch of anti-Dreyfus,
anti-Jew. excitement. ' Meanwhile a
"new bordereau", has been produced,
which may mean more isca'irawagery by
the unsavory Esterhazy or may by a
miracle mearf that "the truth 'is unfold
ing itself through a channel that Iras
known little of its ways heretofore.
The tendency to relapse into barbarism
is well illustrated in the island ofHayti.
Before the government of tlhe island was
tunaed over to-the native blacks land
during the time when tlhe French direc
ted affairs there & fine road, wide
enough to permit the idWving of a four-in-hand
over it, was built across 'the
island from the north to the south end,
but at present there is not a trace of the
thoroughfare; in fact, .it toas beea so
overgrowm with vegetation that even
tone line of location Cannot be found.
The march of civilization marked by the
improvement the f roald' ' offered was
halted just as soon as the natives were
given back the canilrol of the island's
affairs.

Itia-ly is protecting herself sysitemati
cally against heflstorms by firing can-n-cn.
Several hundred villages on the
slopes of the Alps and of the Apennines
haVe established firing s;tations, where
two or three damnon are kept which are
fired at a signal from the weather ob
server. The results are said to be (as
tonishing. In none of these vdlleges did
hail fall tihis summer, while neighbor
ing districts have suffered from the us
ual number of storms.
The works otf Kipling have beem boyr
cotted by the Methodist Sunday school In
Crawfordsville, Ind. One of his works,
came into the family of a man who
declared that it was "fairly reeking
with profanity, and 'tlhe most oubrageocs
s'liang." Fortifying himself with num
erous quotations, he went before the
Sunday school authorities, and as a re
sult the offending book was thrown out
of the library.
A MULE TALE.
Cod stable James Had Gotten the Ani
mal by Claim ' and Delivery
Constable W. A. James recently s.iz
ed a rrfule on claim and delivery pro
ceedings, Ithe animal being in possession
of W. W. H'aanmli'tt. Iti is said that
Hammitt traded the mule to a color
ed boy for a horse. Later he traded
the horse for still another horse, and in
the course of animal events the horse
died. Then he went 'to the mother of
the boy who had figured in the first
transaction and "borrowed" the mule,
saying it would be returned in about
half an hour. After getitiinrg posses
sion of the an'imal he concluded it
rightfully belonged to him anyway as
the horse had died. He refused to re
lease the mule and this precipitated the
litigation. The colored woman got the
mule.
STORAGE WAREHOUSE.
To be Erected Near the Depot by G
A. Greer
Vj. A. Greer, the Patton avenue gro
ceryman, will soon have erected a
building in the depot section to be used
for the storage of heavy groceries. The
lot purchased for the building is 25x118,
and the bundling will cover the entire
space. The storage room" will have
many conveniences. ' "'Trucks' with
heavy boxes and articles may be rolled
directly from the car through the
building' and into wagons at the front
entrance, which will be on Depot
street.
The Southern company will put down
a special sidetrack for the Armour
Packing eornjpary and for Mr. Greer.
FIRST BAPTIST REVIVAL.
Dr. White Will Probably Preach Here
Only Two More Days.
Dr. WMte (announced last evening at
the first Baptist 'chorch that he would
probably preach his last sermon in the,
present revival tomorrow evening. His
text last evening was from Joshua 7:18:
"And Akta Waa TjalDen." A large au
dience wtas present. There were two can
didates for memberships and . several
who asked (for prayers. An extract from
Itlhe sermon follows:
"A Christian man, right with God, IS
invliiciblev and a christian church right
with God 5s unconquerable. In Aken we
have the example of a deflaint sinner. ' He
knew the law of God concerning 'tine ef
fects of rthe Canaanitee, that notf a single
Jew should take any article from , the
fallen) city. In face of rffxis he took of
the accursed things, ankl tempted .God
