Dixon, a native far Heel, but now a - well know Baptist of New York, who like the new woman, is somewhat ad vanced in his methods, has un dertaken to show by the falling off in membership, that protestan ism is a failure in New York. An old time orthodox minister is of opinion that this state of things is due to just such sensational thea trical methods as those adopted by thejaid Thomas. Thk Tennessee democracy in jonvention'on the 7th, declared for free 8ilver,and nominated Ex Governor Bob Taylor for governor by acclimation. If Bob will take his fiddle along during the canij ign, as he did before, that and in t'lvr together ought to puli him turough again. Besides, a man who can beat his brothet ought to he able to be any other man. Times are dull trade is stag nant, but weeping and wailing A-ont put any meal in the tub. Get a move on you, and if you can't get what your work is worth, do like other good men are doing, and take what you can get. For tune's wheel is wobly, but if you stick to it, right and justice will win in the long ruu. There is no sense in being a straight out calanity howler, simply for the gratification of hearine yourself howl, but if the exercise pf your lungs will help the country any, why, howl last and furious. It looks like things are reduced to cither a howl or a wail of distrow, and that neither is any good. A fromisent citizen of Wins ton tells a niortcr of the Raleigh News and Observer that "Bill Fife and Sam Jones," the noted Evaneoli8t,are responsible for the republican victory there in the late municipal election. We are astonished at this. We have la bored under the impression these gentlemen were reformers. Tho Trinity Archive. The May number of the Trinity Archive, au attractive and "well gotten up magazine, both in mat ter and print, is just out. It is run by the student body, and re fleets much credit on the editors, Sam. W. Sparger, chief; Joe F. Bivens, , assistant, and business and literary managers J. II. Se- park aud II. B. Craven respec tively. It is fairly patronized by Durham advertisers, and the Herald wishes it unbounded success. Among its matter of greatest interest is "the cub ot eight," found among the heretofore un- published manuscript 01 &uwin W. Fuller. Several other well written articles contribute to the value of this number. A. T C- Indicted- New York, May 7. The grand jury has found indictments against Jas. B. Duke and nine directors of the American Tobacco Company, charging them with "conducting a monopoly in the paper cigarette trade." The directors of the American Tobacco Company indicted with President' James B. Duke were: Win. Butler, Wm. A. Marburg, Louis Ginter, George Arters, Geo. W. Gail, Denj. N. Duke, Geo. W. Watts, Joiiah Browne und Clias. G. Emery. New York, May 9. The steamer Laurada, which was reported as passing in at quar antine at 3:52 o'clock Saturday, was not seen to come up the bay to a dock in this city. The Laurada came from Philadel phia, tu.d was reported to be in ballast to Bennett, Walsh & Co. It was rumored, however, that a fil bustering expedition was to be taken out on her and the revenue cutter William F. Chandler, with steam up, and her crew on board, was waiting at the Battery an 1 o'clok this morning for her, captain to come on board. It is understood that the Chandler has been or dered to folfow the Laurada and seize her. Newbern-, N. G, May 8. The fusion Russellitcs had it all tht-ir own way at the First district Re publican Congressional conven tion at Edenton yesterday. They turned down Elihu White, of Per quimans, seated his contotant and endorsed McKinley, Pritch ard, Russell and Skinner. Dr Abbott was chairman and E. C. Duncan and J. B. Butler were elected delegates to St. Louis. Tub members of the indicted American Tobacco Company who were arraigned before the New York Court on Friday, plead not guilty. The action of the court is affecting the price of this stock and on Friday it dropped to C3. It is just as unfair to judge clothes by the man that wears them these days, as it is to judge a party by the "Smart Alecks" who make out they are running the entire machine.

"Did yoa evr see ft rabbit's (ban tend up like that?" demanded Uncle Tom, flipping tlie eais ot a toy thai Dolly held in her hand. ;-y "Ve, Indeedl" ensvrered Dolly promptly, pointing to the picture of a rabbit in a book that lay at her side. , The little girl had bought a pattern of a rabbit at tot "tore and with a bit f .white canton-flannel aod-two red and white button for eyes she had fashioned a ribbit for little Ted thai was as like as life.' Everything was finished now except the ears, aud theus, daintily lined with pink, Doll was in the act of putting into their proper places. She had bestowed great care on placing these useful member torrectly, and for that purpose she had hunted np th,e book, which she knew contained an admirable picture of ribbit. 1 ' Imitating this picture aa accurately as p.-jjhib'e she nad fastened 6ne bar, setting it on the head in a perfectly upright position, and now she was holding the other to its place on the opposite side, and was eyeing it at arm's length to decide if the two were "a pair." I'pcle Tom took the book and exam eed the picture critically; tbea laugh ing, he said: Why, Dolly, the" rabbit la the pl tare is sitting still, nibbling at a cab bage leaf; of course his ears stanl straight up. But this one that ycc save made Is running at full aped and Jutit in the aet of making a leap, A rabbit in that position should have hi ears lying back from his bead, almoe paralel with his body." j "Does the wind blow them backus be runs? asked Dolly, making the ml teration without further question. "That," said her ancle, much am u led, "is one explanation, perhaps, bat there is another and I think a bet ter one, which the naturalist sug gest" Turning over the leaves ot the pie-tare-book he pointed first to the pic ture of a fox, thea to one of m wolf, end then to pictures of other beasts of prey of various kinds. "These animals," he explained, indi cating the ears of each, "bare the ear. pointed forward aa they proceed. Cat you suggest any reason tot the difference?" 'Dolly shook her head, but listened attentively. "Well, continued Uncle Tom, "yoa know that the rabbit, or hare, is a very timid animal and never attacks or pur sues another animal, and that it feeds only on vegetable diet. Whenever, therefore, it is foid to be in a state oi Biotion the chances are that it la fleeing from some enemy 1 the rear. It is to its inter ests, then, to keep its attentios steadily fixed on sounds proceeding from that carter. For this purpose nature has taught it IO adjust its ears, or its ear trumpet, as the long out ids part of the organ of hesrisg reaUy la. so aa to beet solicit all the aooad waves, and. to offar the least resistance to their passage to the inner organ in such m position the ears wonld nat araily be flattened back against da head, as yon now have them. "Now, when a wolf goes id si-arch of his prey hi thoughts urn Intent on what is before hint. Be concentrates his attention oa th sounds that may lead him in tha direction of hi viotim. Bis ear trumpet, therefore, are turned forward to catch the sound that may aid bim in his ehase." "And so it Is with all animals that prey upon other." Detroit Fre Press, BROKE UP THE CLASS. satwer of a Smalt Itnr Whoa Papa Die - liked t harrb Got The hands of the clock pointed to three forty-five and school would not be dismissed until four. (So the school ma'am, who waa a strict moralist, thought she would give the young Ideas a short lecture on goodness and morality. After explaining, to th lit tle folks the various grades of punish ment for infraction of the law, site resolved to ask a few questions te ascertain if her words had been com prehended. "Xow, children." she said, "I've told yon what becomes of bad men, and how good men get bad by loitering around saloons and associating with bad men. Now, let me see how many of you have profited by my remark. 1 wish some of yon eonld tell me where your papas hope to go." Nobody answered, it was plain th schoolma'am was in too deep water for the youngsters. 8he seemed to think so, too, so she said: "I'll make that a little easier. Tell me where your pepa don't want to go?" (expecting such answer as pris on, penitentiary and jail.) There was a painful wait, but finally a little fellow in one of the rear seat slowly raised his hand. "Ah, there's one boy that can answer that question. Tell us Tommy.wher your papa doesn't want to go?" "To church," replied Tommy. "lie says so every Sunday morning." Whereupon the school wa dismissed. -Truth. sasens sLoraeo. roewrceirnt tm et Orlak, trsvskM, erlak, of Brsdlef per rill.
