A CEREAL LDNGH. the:domestic science de ; partment Mavefft Feast, at Which BanQao'a Gliot Apfreara and Is Mistaken for the B am bler. Though Postnna Cereal Was the Only Potation. Club's Bright Prospects. (Communicated. ) The Domestic Science Depart ment of the Woman's Club gave a Cereal Lunch in their club room Wednesday. Much curiosity was manifested on the expectant ifaces of the invited guests, offers of medical attention having been made by the uninvited should indigestion or any serious results follow participation in the feast. The most doubtful were con vinced that a lunch could be pre pared out of cereals alone, that -was appetizing and nutritious after partaking of the following menu: Barley Soup. Bye, and Whole Wheat Bread. Sandwitches. : Eice, a laFromage. Hominy Croquettes and Beaten Biscuit. Apple Cream Sauce on Shredded Wheat Biscuit. Egg Salad on Shredded Wheat Biscuit. Rice Hock Cream. Oat Meal with Dates, Fostum Cereal Coffee. We could but wonder at the number of courses, and the delica cy of these preparations, when we were informed that the members of the Department had made with their own hands each disk served, j proving the ladies have not only studied the value of cereals, but had learned to cook them. In the midst of the'interesting conversa tion on tthe possibilities of the Club, the surety of the establish ment of a free "Kindergarten, be cause our citizens whenever aroused are generous andVpublic spirited; the good work the Cha tauqua circle was doing, the inter changing of receipts of the various dishes, and last.butnot least, who is the Rambler?, (could his identity become established he would have been the guest of honor,) a knock was heard at the door: fourteen yoices responded "Come in." He came, took in the situation, made remarks which we will not repeat, departed, refusing to accept the cordial invitation to lunch, though we could see a look of real hunger on his face as he gazed on the elaborately spread table, made beautiful with snowy linen and hot house flowers.as only woman's hands could make it. Was the Rambler rambling around, trying to overhear the conversation of unsuspecting Club women whose only fault is that they want to make men's surroundings more beautiful and help him answer in the affirmative the momentous question, "Is life worth living," that was sprung upon the world by some poor man whose only thought, aim and object in life Whs self? We hope he was the Rambler, if so, he will forever hereafter be the friend and cham pion of the Woman's Club and begin to hear things with his other ear, for was it not a man who wrote: "We may live without poetry, music and art, We may live without conscience, And live without heart, We may live without friends, We may live without books, But civilized man cannot live without cooks. He may live without books What is knowledge but grieving? He may live without hope What ia hope but deceiving? He may live without love What is passion but pining? But where is the man that can live without dining?" H. A BEAUTIFUL POEM. Charlotte Observer. The poem by Mr. John R.Mor ris, in to-day's Observer, ''Lady Fair", is worthy of a place in The Century Magazine, The pica ture of the rare old lady, grow ing eyer younger in spite of the flight into the past of life's an nual mile posts, is vivid. Some of as have known just such sweet and lovely characters. If it was the author's intention to intensify in the reader's miod the concept of the high bred quality of "Lady Fair" by put ting lilies in her hands, after her death, to droop and sleep "on rare old lace," he has ad mirably succeeded. The poem is a gem and Mr. Morris has writ ten nothing finer. as LADY FAIR "Laugh 'way these years! Let's laugh my souj.?" Tears, fifty more! seemed nH to change.

JOHN R. MORRIS. MORTGAGE OF $5,000,000. It Required 82,500 in War Stamps to File It. Raleigh Post Possibly the largest mortgage ever given in North North Caro lina was recorded with the register of deeds of Wake county yester day. It was the trust deed authorized by the stockholders of the Raleigh & Gaston Railroad Wednesday last in favor of the Continental Trust Company of Baltimore, to secure an issue of 85,000,000 first consolidated mortgage bonds. It required 2,500 in war stamps to legally put the mort gage on record. Fifty $50 stamps and two 10 cent stamps were used. The amount paid to the coun ty for recording the mortgage was only $27, a mere bagatelle when compared with the tariff paid the government. The railroad paid the county $23.50 for registration of the document and $3.50 for pro bation and seal certificates. The mortgage is printed neat ly and bound in book form with paper backs. It comprises sixty two pages, printed only on one side. The instrument is in the nature of a deed of trust to se cure an issue of $5, 000. 000 first consolidated mortgage and colla teral trust fifty-year five per cent gold bonds, dated January 1, 1900, due January 1, 1950. The instrument is signed on the part of the Continental Trust j Company by S. Davies Warfield, president, and by F. C. DreyeD, treasurer, and for the Raieigh & Gaston Railroad by President John Skelton Williams, J. H. Sharp and Director YV. S. Blak ford. The witnesses to the big mortgage are ex Judge E. D. Cross of Baltimore and Capt. W. H. Day, of Raleigh. Mr. Camer on MacRae made affidavit to the signatures. y 1 ITCH on human cured In 30 min utes by Wcslford's Sanity Lotion This teverfails.

Tobacco Growers Formally Ac cept Jordan's Proposition They are in For Busi ness. Raleigh Post, Pursuant to adjournment the Tobacco Growers' Association of North Carolina met again yes terday morning at 9 o'clock. President J. Bryan Grimes called tha meeting to order, and Mr. T B. Parker, the secretary was at his post. About sixty delegates were in their seats, the others leaving for their homes on early trains. The association took up first the plan of Mr. J. F. Jordan as reported favorably upon by the committee The report of the committee, which embodied Mr. Jordan's proposition, was unani- Mr' Jean's plan, briefly Stat- ed, is this the tobacco raisers of Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, East Tennessee, with president, vice-president, secretary andtrea- surer, and twenty-five directors a majority of whom shall be farmers. The capital stock shall be divided in shares of the value of $10 each, eighty per cent to be taken by capitalists and twen ty per cent by the farmers, also that the latter who had not the cash to take shares, could pay for their interest with tobacco. The stockholders must enter an ironclad agreement not to sell their tobacco to anyone but this company, the latter agree ing to pay not less than 15 per cent more than the average prices paid for five years past. The stockholders also agree that in the event of a desire to sell their stock, it must first be offer ed to the association before being placed on the market. The plan further stipulates: The tobacco of every grower shall be averaged and graded on the warehouse floors by two leaf dealears selected by my people and two growers selected by this organization. These shall form a committee to grade the tobacco and price it, and the same price shall be paid to each seller. Do this for a year and then store the tobacco, after curing and. the usual method, away. We may have to keep it a year, or two years, or three years. The trust has enough tobacco to last them a year, but the stock will run out, and we will have all the tobacco. They will be bound to buy it of us, at our price, or else go out of business. By this method it is proposed that, the farmers shall not only obtain reasonable prices for their tobacco, but also share in the profits of the association, which proposes, it necessary, to equip and run factories.
