The trouble between some of the weavers at the Wayne Cotton Mil' and its managers was the formers' objection to a deduction from their wages of fines impos ed for turning out defective goods. Before they would allow the enforcement of such rules some half a dozen or more weav ers quit work on Wednesday. They went back again yesterday morning, but their places had been filled, and now the unsub missive weavers are out of em ployment. Mr. R. H. Smith, superinten dent of the Wayne Cotton Mill, says that their pay roll amounts t $300.00 per week; that the average pay of all employes, children included, is $4.50 per week; that good weavers make from $8 to $9 per week; that giils fiom 12 to 14 years of age get 64 cents a dav. and that children who had never seen a cotton mill before are making 40 cents per aay. Mr. Smith fays that his company are paying as much for help as any mill in North Carolina. A proposition has been sub mitted by the Street and Light Committee of the Board of Al dermen and accepted by Mr. S. F. Alden, the manager of the Goldsboro Electric Light Com pany, by which the city will con tinue to be lighted for a period of twelve months at the same figures that have previously been paid. The Board of Aldermen have voted to have an expert come and examine the condition and appraise the worth pt the electric light plant with a view to purchasing it. The terms of the new contract are such as not to prohibit the purchase of the plant should the city decide to do so. It is impossible to mentally or socially enslave a Bible-reading people.

Rumor said a naval battle was taking place in the of fing, but investigation proved that it was only the celebration attendant upon a marriage. Charlotte Observer; The maxi mum temperature yesteiday was 96 the hottest, day this season, except June 26th, when the maximum was also Ub. The aver age for the day was 85 degrees higher than any day this season. Highest previous average 84, on June 26th. While the weather for the past two or three weeks has been de cidedly disagreeable to humanity it has proved of immeass benefit to crops, especially cotton. The succession of very warm days and nights after a seasou of heavy rains has made cotton grow like magic. Reports from all par's of the south -show that the crop is in beautiful condition and iudicate a very heavy yield. Ii is doubtful if the cotton crop was ever before in so promising a condition at this season. Sev eial bales have already been marketed in Georgia and picking is becominsr auite jreneral in the southwest. The New Orleans Picayune, which is excellent authority on the subject, gives the following comments Qn the cotton situi ion: The splendid promises of the crop has been noted by the trade from the very start , and prices haye gradually declined, thus discounting in advance the size of the yield. With spot cottou now at 6 1-2cents, and fall con tracts practically at 6, cents, it is a question whether or not the yield has not been already dis counted fully. The new season promises to open with general stocks con siderably shorter than they have been in several years: hence, at anything like 6 cents per pound foreign spinners are likely to take a very large amount during the early part of the season. Six cent cotton would be fairly satis factory to the farmers under ex isting conditions, as the crop has been economically grown and the coast of marketing promises t be less during the coming year than ever oefore. The S juth now produces much more of the produts it consumes tban it. ever did before, and. agriculturally speaking, it is now independent of other sections of the country. Cotton is more a surplus crop than it ever was: hencathe pros pect of 6 cents, which five years ago would have meant ruin, now has no serious terrors for the southern farmers. There can be no question but that the South is destined to sup ply the world with practically all the uottOQ it needs, and to grow the staple at a price with which no other producing country can hoie to completp.

More than half the suffering which sapi the energies and sours the disposition of women' is directlv traceable to some disor der of the ergans distinctly feminine. There is no iiail'need of such troubles ; they are itiyari.J.y Xmred by Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, which reaches and strengthens the internal generative organs as no othef treatment can possibly do. By restoring health and strength to this most important part of the feminine constitution, the "Fa vorite Prescription " gives new tone and en ergy to all the rest of the body. One of the most deeply interesting and truly educative books ever written is the " People's Common Sense Medical Ad viser," by Dr. R. V. Pierce, Chief Consult ing Physician of the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y. This Splendid volume of 1008 pages, includes ninety pages on the subject of diseases pe culiar to women, with directions for home treatment, rendering unnecessary th em barrassing "examinations," and generally useless local treatment," so dreaded by modest women. The book contains the most comprehensive explanation of human physiology and the rational principles of hygiene ever published. Illustrated with over 100 enerravinsrs a complete medical library in one volume. No other medical book in the English language ever had such an enormous sale. 680,000 copies were sold at $1.30 each. Dr. Pierce is now distrib uting a new free edition of half a million copies. A copy will be sent absolutely fret to anyone who will send to the World's Dispensary Medical Association, Buffalo, N. Y-, 21 one-cent stamps to pay cost of mailing only. The present edition is in all respects the same as that sold at $1.50 ex cept only that it is bound in strong manilla paper covers instead of cloth.

Although every thing looks roseate for the cotton crop st the present time, bad weather from now on may greatly curtail the ultimate vield, and an unfavor able picking season meaning the loss of hundreds of thousands of bales. It is, therefore, not safe to confidently count on low prices for the copaing season, particu larly as many believe that the de cline which has already taken place has fully discounted a very large yield. We hope our contemporary is correct in its opinion that the large yield has probably been fully discounted. It is certainly right in saying rthat 6 cent cot ton is now quite a different thing from what it was a few years ago and in the opinion that the South is in no danger of losing its position as the main source of the world's cotton supply. EMERGENCY HOSPITAL Asheville Citizen: J. F. Mil ler received a telegram yester day afternoon stating that his son Lloyd, who has been receive ing treatment in Buffalo, N.
