2 MT. ELIAM MATTERS. A Reply to the Orrum Corres pondent Pigs Born With Tusks and the Remedy A Pea and Bean Yarn Special Relig ious Services A Society Or ganized. ConvsDondence of The Robesonian. Mt. Eliam, March 30 It is with much trouble, as my wrist is sprained, I am writing1 a few words about "Big Orrum" and her "big" correspondent. Well, yes, I sorter reckon Mt. Eliam is proud of her "Happy Jack" and I am sure that talented, praise worthy correspondent that lives in "Big Orrum" is carried away with the town. Yes siree. Now. I did not think that I insulted Orrum by saying I hoped The Re cord would grow faster than the towrn, nor of raising The Re cord's wool for saying The Robesonian was the best paper published in Robeson county (for we all know it is). I am about to believe like the young man from "Big Orrum" who went out in the country (understand) and said he had lived in town (in Orrum) till it seemed strange to get out into the country and he did not know how to act. I know how some of the Orrum people did act at the Mt. Eliam concert. WEATHER OBSERVATIONS. Eruptions From the Sun Red Sun and Moon and March Weather. It was the intention to submit some observations on the weath er a week ago today, the last day of March, or at least for last Monday's caper: but other mat ters crowded so that it was im possible to do so. Last Friday, the first day of the month, the Statesville Landmark printed ; some peculiarly apt remarks about the weather and as they are just as appropriate now (or were when this went into the ; hands of the printers) they are reprinted here. After mentioning a recent aispatcn wnicn men tioned "strange eruptions that have appeared on the Sun," as discovered by Prof. Edwin B. Frost, of Yerkes Observatory, The Landmark rises to remark: During the unusual weatherof the past week the hazy Indian summer that has prevailed the sun has been blood-red in the rly mornings and late alter- noons ana the moon nas also been red. By some these atmos pheric conditions have been ascribed to volcanic eruptions. Time was when this redness of the sun and moon, coupled with the near approach of the comet, would have been regarded as a it mi n i lis it tit a fx ifi tuts n inTT ii n n J m M 131 PI New Slippers and Shoes For every member of the family, th a. i t 4.u:i, 111 not say now. x mum. ure j?

Every unusual spe!l it is customary to say there never Orrum". They have been trying to get me to help a little by writ ing for The Record, but I did not want the job (I mean some of the Orrum folks have) ; for my opponents have failed to make a town and when they fail it's a lamming bad chance. The in corporation of Orrum is big enough, but it's hollow nothing in it. That's right. But here let me say if Robeson county had many towns with as big corpora tions as "Big Orrum" ril go to mill if she would not all be town. But if they had three tri- dailies second to none in America was tne like oeiore, wnereas there has been similar weather many times. Two unusual weather condi tions marked the month which closed yesterday. The first was the absence of wind. For ages March has been distinguished as the month when Old Boreas did 'his possible" (as Col. Sharpe, of The Robesonian would say) . But latterly March has been not ed for wind. . There is a theory that if there are not excessive w7inds in March they will come in uailico ocvuiiu iu nunc in niutiiva ,i , i ,1 , , 1 J thv Ponlrt not Vp n ritv nt.nf some other month; that the wind :-, i ,i , ,u -r 4- Big Orrum ; no, not yet. the rains come and the sun shines ana benoid, urrum is worked in the middle.

This will make the nervous apprehensive of many wind storms the coming summer. The latter half of March was especially distinguished for high temperature and fair weather. A 4.
