The statement that France will demand redress for the attack on her minister Is confirmed here. ' Washington, June 28. Confirma tion of the reported attack on the Frenoh and German ministers in Hati came to the State Department today in tbe shape of the folowiug cablegram from Minister Powell at Port Au Prince, dated June 22: "French and German ministers with 11 lea MereU Climate.

The naost seiious feature of the affir is that the attack was- made not by an ii responsible mob, but by the palace guard, which directly connects the Haytien government with the oc enrrenoe. More than a month ago the State Departmen t was forewarned of this approaching trouble by its agents in Hayti, and have been watching the little republic closely, keeping a naval force near at hand. The Detroit, which went from Dominican waters to participate in the Novascotia celebra tion will retnrn to San Domingo, -as it is reported by the Navy Department to keep three vessels in close proximity to Hayti and Sandomingo. Charity and personal force are tbe only investments worth,, anything. Walt. Whitman. Wilmington Messenger: Russia Las disappointed the whole world. Up to the beginning of her war with the Japanesa it was thought that she was one oi-The' great na tions. She has demonstrated tbe "fact that she is one of the second rate, powers. The Japs have shown superiority in every branch .of the science of war general ship, strategy, 'lighting qualities and in every other way. - Exchange : We get many things and ideas from Ohio. The "city beautiful' idea has caught a good many of the citie&jand towns of the State and the women everywhere are taking -the lead. Wheie will the men go when the women take to cleaning the town as they clean the bouse? However, that is a small consideration. The main thing is to clean up and keep clean. There's health and beauty and self-satisfaction in it. It was quite amusing late yesterday afternoon to watch a crowd of tbe ex cursionists that had gathered on the corner of Front and Princess streets Several of tho young sports had sc oured a large pile of boughs from long leaf pines and were distributing them among their lady friends, who were accepting with m.iny manifestations of delihst at receiving such pretty souvenirs. While the boys aud girls were load ing up with pine boughs a staid look ing old fellow came along, carrying an old telescope which looked like it had been on many a journey. He made several sarcaatio remarks to the young people abont being so foolish about carryiug pine home, when they had plenty of pine trees in their part of the country. The words had scarce ly left his lips when the cord he bad around the old telescope gave-way and down came the contents to the sidewalk. Well, it is impassible to describe the contents, which was a conglomera tion of wearing apparel, biscuits. shells and numerous other things. The old fellow, who had been laughing at other members of the party for car rying off a portion of the pine forests of New Hanover had loaded his tele scope so fnll ot the small shells off the beach that the weight broke the cord he Was carrying his precious load by. When the mass hit the sidewalk shells went in all directions. The street waa crowded, bat the laughter of those around him did not abash the old fellow. Down on bis knees he went, and gathered up the shells, clothes and ''something to eat." Having got his telescope tied np again, he made for the Seaboard station to! board his train. He was a member of the Charlotte excursion. Wilming ton Messenger i snarrlafe of aU a toe Oottaa ta aaaklaar good time la this arctioav, aod bl in another week. Mr. J. W.

The Detroit judge who has de clared that the man is the head of the house, and has advised a com plaining husband to take his wife home and spank her, is a bachelor, and to him the enforcement of bis law may seem easy and simple. It maj be good law in theory, from the standpoint of a bachelor, but to the married man difficulties the capacity of present themselves. Like an ad ministrations once upon a famous ton will be ginned in one day and will time, the married man nnds him also put in an elctrio ligi't plant for seJf "confronted with a condition, Napoleon's Clock. Among the objects wbich will shortly figure at the sale of the late Princess Mathilde's , effects, in Paris, is Napo leon's alarnxxlock .' This was constructed especially for the Emperor by Abraham Bregust, in iSio, and is made of gilded and chiseled bronze. There are eight dials, showing the pkases of toe moon, the seconds, min utes, hoars, days, months of the year, etc. . The clock also contains a ther mometer, and strikes the hours and quarters. Respectability is no suubstitute for repentance. It's the early worm' that catches the fish. their store and gin. Shipment of beans at Vineland for the past four weeks is 4,000 crates, showing well for Vineland and White ville as a bean market. About 300 barrels of potatoes have been shinned from there this season. Good prices were realized from both productcs. H. F. Schulkeu's little boy, Willie, nine years old, was driving his fath er's horse on Monday between the court house and Vineland. Tl became frightened and rau slley between Powell & Coys store and Rice's mest market, overturning the buggy and throwing the boy un derneath. Willie alarmed the neigh borhood by his loud cries of distress, but fortunately he received no injuries. Vague Sitting for a Picture. Prosperity makes than- adversiljj more fools Bad men excuse their faults. ; good men will leave them. Johnson. 1 .... A Western photographer has been giv ing out some don ts of photography for the benefit of sitters. The fact is empha sized that the kind of clothes worn has a great influence on the photographer. A glittering surface, such as silk, espec ially near the face, is to be avoided. Of course, if the si:k is a dull finish that alters the case. Gowns or wraps that show pronounced patterns such as plaids or stripes are undesirable. So, also, are sharp color contrasts such as? very light or wnue rxxiices ana black or dark shirt. And even in the trimming it is not ad sable to have a decided contrast between ground material and ornament. Jet and glittering jewelry are also tabooed, as are stiff dress fabrics. Soft goods thai fall into graceful liues are in every way better. Sharp or hard lines at the neck and wrists are also among the touches that should not appear in a photograph. They impart some of their stiffness to the subject of the picture. Stiff stocks and collars thus come under the ban. The curious statement is made that although skilled photographers try to persuade their omen patrons to eschew "litter and stiffness, they very frequently fail to convince the prospective .subjects, that clothes can possibly have anv uncompli mentary effjct ia a photograph. Exchange. not a theory Law has its limitations. It has great dignity and majesty so long as the baton of the constable is di rectly back of it or all the awesome machinery of tbe court is on hand lu n u uuui l it, uui nucii a uiuu afraid of bis wife is all alone with her and only tbe abstract law is on bis side, the law doesn t seem to be so very much. A husband's right to spank his wife has perhaps existed in law ever since law began. But the most part it has existed in the law alone. The law has ever declared the husband to be tbe head of the house, but in most cases the wife has seen to it tbat he is only the figurehead. Possibly every husband might enjoy the privilege of spanking his wife if be were content to take her into court to do it. But this would be inconvenient. Besides the husband would 1)3 wise first to consider what might happen after she would get him back dome. Of course, man is physically superior and ordinarily might spank his wife if he would. But no bachelor can be expected to know the wjles by which a wife can conquer her stronger husband through her very weakness. As a rule, the husband who could spank his. wife wouldn't and the one who would couldn't. A bachelor judge may know the law. But he does not know a hus band and wife. Milwaukee Jour nal.

J M is pastor of the Baptist church and Rev. A L is pastor of tbe Methodist chnroh. The above gives the nominations for State officials made at the Democratic State Convention, which convened in Greensboro on tbe 23rd inst. The convention was called to ord?r by State Chairman Simmons at 12:20 o'clock in the Baner warehouse, which place was chosen because it had the largest seating capacity of any build ing in the city. The crowd in attend ance far exceeded the expectations of all present, the acoustics of the hall were exceedingly poor and the neces sary noise convinced Senator Simmons that it would be impossible for him to deliver his speech, which waa intend ed should occupy abont thirty-five minutes, so that after a few remarks ooonpying about ten minutes, he in troduced Hon. John H. Small as tem porary chairman and retired. Temporary Chairman Small had no better success than Senator Simmons, and at tbe end of abont 20 minutes be concluded and asked permission to print his speech. Before tbe convention adjourned for dinner the chairman preaeuted Gov ernor Aycock, who addressed tbe con vention for abont 35 minutes in his usual felicitous manner, maintained, th attention of the convention throughout his entire speech, and was undistuitvd except by the frequent outbursts of uproarious applause. The committe on organization se lected Ex-Lieutenant Governor R. A. Doughton as permanent chairman; A. J. Field, secretary ; George Bell and E. E. Britton assistants, and W. L. Cohooa and W. W.
