One of the incidents of the day was the presentation of a very handsome gold-headed ebony cane to Mr. Thos. K. Bruner, assistant secretary of the Exposition. The cane was a testimo nial from "the boys," and was pre sented by Mr. F. A. Olds. Mr. Bru ner in response said : "This evidence of your friendly appreciation of my humble services iu helping in the great work-of organiz ing and carrying through this grand exposition of our State's resources, is most gratefully appreciated. My heart swells with gratitude to you all, kind friends; and while I accept your gift and shall use it as a constant remind er of our pleasant and gonial associa tion here, I must beg you to remem ber that to the untiring zeal and en ergy of Mr. W. S. Primrose, president, and Mr. H. E. Fries, secretary, all honor is due. The success is theirs they are the heroes in every sense, true Carolinians! I believe that they Siave accomplished much for the true advancement of the State's industrial interests, and that they have done more for the State than any other two men could have done with the same amount of capital. Associated with them in the capacity of assistant sec retary, I speak from actual knowl edge; and I assure you they have done a great work, the beneficial re sults of which will flow directly to the people. This exposition has been an eye-opener to th people of North Carolina. It has given an impetus to industrial energy, and its good effects will be geen in the coming years. Gentlemen, I thank you for the hon or you have dune me. This scene, these faces, time shall not efface from memory. ft Terrible End of a Georgia Girl's . Adventurous Career. New York Times. News has reached New York that a woman whose escapades have at different times startled and shocked the good people of three continents has at last met with a dreadful fate in Japan. This woman was known to New Yorkers 16 or 17 years ago as Mrs. John Beecher, afterwards as the Countess Pourtales, later to the Parisians as a lady of fashion, and finally to the imperial circles of Yo kohama as the favorite of the Japan ese Prime Minister. She was a daughter of a respectable Georgia family and was brought to this city a blooming girl by her mother just after the close of the war. Appa rently the family had saved some means from the wreck caused by the war, for thetmother and daughter were able to live in good style at the A st or House. After awhile they moved to the Fifth Avenue Hotel, and there the daughter met Mr. John Beecher, at that lime a wealthy member of a well known liquor firm, who lived at the hotel. It was not long before she became Mrs. Beecher, and the young couple left the hotel to occupy a luxurious home. Mrs. Beecher soon after marriage manifested a most flirtatious and wayward disposition, which finally so compromised her reputation that Mr. Beecher was forc ed to seek a divorce. This in course of time he procured, and shortly af terward the community was startled by the announcement that Mrs. Beecher had shot at Lloyd Phoenix as he was ascending the steps of his sister's Fifth avenue residence. She subsequently went to Paris, where she had not sojourned long before she became the Countess Pourtales. It was said she met the Count on the steamship in which she sailed from New York. The Count had been attached to the French Legation ..... ... at Washington anil had married daughter of Ben Halliday, but had been tor some time a widoWer. The first Countess died on a railroad train while Hearing Chicago, whither she was journeying. After their marriage iu Paris Count PourtaJes returned to his post in Washington and carried his bride with him, but the fame of the Coun tess's escapades having preceded her the couple were not well received, aud the Count at his own request wus speedily recalled From Paris they went to Japan, aid there the Coun tess's conduct was in essential respects similar to what it had been as Mrs. B- echer in New York, and the Count finally abandoned her in disgust. Eventually she openly became the mistress of the Japanese Prime Min ister, and in course of time attempt eel to play as free with him as she had done with her husbands. But among the other barbarous customs of that country is one that punishes infidelity with death, wheth er the offender, be wife or mistress. As the story comes from those dis tant shores, oue night two masked men entered the wretched woman's house, seized and bowst rung her, then put her body into a sack and flung it into the river. The information is undoubtedly true, and it has been known for some time to a number of persons in this city, but has not here tofore gained publication. Fire In Chic.iffo. A Five Story Building in Flame NarroiolEscapes of Inmates Death of a Brave and Heroic Man, Chicago, Oct. 29. a large brick building situated on the southeast corner of LaSalle and Michigan streets, the lower floors of which were occupied by hide dealers and the upper part by Fisher's eigar box fac tory, caught fire at about noon and is at this hour, 15.45, completely gut ted. One man was killed by jump ing from a window and two others were smothered on the stairs. The factory girls oil the upper floors es caped with the greatest difficulty. It is believed all oi them were saved. The loss will reach $100,000. The building was owned by Mr. Culver, of Culver, Pace & Hayne, and was a five story structure, occupied by Schabel & Co., barbed wire manufac turers, Campbell Printing Press Co., Daubeizer Bros., chewing gum m inu- tacturers, and r isher s cigar box fac tory. 1 lie latter was on the top story and employed 21 men aud 18 girls. The foreman of the shop, Jas. Larr, got all of the 37 souls together iu good order, and coolly led them to the fire proof stairs and safely to the ground. Troubled with doubt as to whether any were left behind. C;srr quickly returned to the fifth story, but remained a few moments too late, as the flames had cut oft every aven ue of escape. He hurried to the roof and amid the wild excitement of thousands of people he was thrown a rope from a building ou the opposite side ot the street aud making the line fast he commenced his perilous descent, while the firemen held a heavy tarpaulin beneath as a precaution. Suddenly the rope snapped under the man's weight, or was burned by the bursts of flame, and Carr's body shot down ward head foremost to the horror of the crowd of people, and went direct ly through the tarpaulin, aud was picked up from the stones with his neck broken and mangled almost be yond recognition. , Another thrilling scene was taking place at the fire eseape from the chew ing gum factory. Eighteen young girls panic stricken came down pell mell, and when within 25 feet of the ground, the last eight jumped to the pavement, falling iu a confused heap. Fortunately only three of them were seriously injured, they receiving pain ful cuts and bruises. Blessing: Others. There is one way of attaining what we may term, if not utter, at least mor tal happiness, it is this a sincere and tinrelaxing activity for the happiness of others. In that one maxim is con centrated whatever, is noble in moral ity, sublime iu religion, or unanswer able in truth. In that pursuit we have all scope for whatever is excel lent iu our hearts, and none for the petty passions which our nature is heir to. Tims engaged, whatever be our errors, there will be nobility, not weakness, in our remorse, whatever our failures, virtue, not selfishness, in our regrets; aud iu success vauity it self will become holy, and triumph eternal.- Lord Lytton. Hickory Press: About seven miles south of Hickory, near the South Fork river, on the John Wilfong farm, stands a remarkable walnut tree. It is twenty-seven feet iu circumference, being nearly nine feet iu diameter three feet above the ground. It meas ures 38 feet to the first limb, and the limbs are in proportion to the size of the tree. This tree is vigorous iu its growth aud is believed to be entirely solid. If sawed into lumber it would make 12,000 feet, without the limbs. Estimating this lumber at $40 per thousand feet, its market value would be $480. "I wouldn't give two cents," said Col. Polk, "for a North Carolinian, man or woman, who is not proud of the State Exposition, and the Legis lature ought to buy the building, and every two years let the counties come together aud make it eveu bigger than it is now." Three Great Secrets. In those olden days when people belreved that the sun moved, and that the earth stood still and was flat like a great pancake, so that yon would fall off' the edge if you sailed far enough to the West, tliey believed many other strange and curious things which you do not read so much about in your school books. There were three great secrets the people of those times tried to find out the secret of eternal youth, the se cret of turning everything to gold, and the secret of a universal solvent ; and many lives were devoted to try ing to discover these secrets and many fortunes speut upon them as well these great secrets whieh have never yet been discovered, and never will be, for they are know only to God, who knows all thingKf The men who devote themselves to these things were called alchemist, and for years and years, they toiled in their laboratories, concocting strange mix tures, and forming strange combina tions, always thinking themselves on the verge of discovery, and until they became so fascinated ly their work that they were scarcely able to leave it, either for sleep, food or exercise. The first of these secrets was that of eternal youth, or the elixir of life. They believed that if you could once get a drink of this elixir or water of life, you would never grow old, never die. The alchemists were wise men for their day, well versed in the mys teries of science, aud it seems strange that they could have believed in such a mad theory as that. We all know that wc must grow old and die, unless indeed, we die in youth, but these men were so sure of finding the secret of eternal youth that they grew ofd and gray in the search. You remember when the Spaniards came to America they felt sure of fin ding the fountain of eternal youth. The country was so full of wonderful, curious, terrible things so overflow ing with springs, of all kinds, hot, cold, sweet and bitter, that they were sure the fountain of youth must be bubbling up somewhere among its green hills. They spent long weary years iu search of it, hundreds of them dying by the way, of hardships and fatigue but to fail in the end. They never found the fountain though the Indians told them that such a spring flows in the sunny laud of Florida. The second secret the alchemist tri ed to discover was something that would turn everything it touched in to gold. They called it the philoso pher's stone. They believed that whoever possessed this stone had fab ulous wealth in his hand, for he had but to touch a piece of worthless wood, stone, iron or anything else with it, and behold it became pure, shilling, gold ! How the alchemists toiled aud la bored to find that stone! How they mixed strange and strange ingredi ents iu their crucibles, but to fail at last ! The philosopher's stone has nev er been discovered and never will be. Gold is gold, and uu earthly power or magic can can transform a piece of dull iron into the pure, precious me tal. The alchemists grew old and gray and poor, spending every thing youth, happiness and wealth, in this vain search, when, if they had been con tented with the good things that tell to their lot, they might have pass ed youthful and happy lives. The third of these great secrets was that ot a universal solvent that is a solvent that would dissolve every thing. We do not read so much about that, for it was not so much wealth were Miuandered iu the vain search for it. ri.i . . i ue secret ot eternal voutn was most sought for, for every one wished to remain young and strong and to re tain the charms and beauties that be long only to youth. But the three great secrets have never been discov ered and people have quite given up the search for them, though we still read of them, and hear strange stories of the alchemist in his den, surround ed by strange vessels and curious ob jects of which we scarcely know the names, wasting his manhood and wealth in the vain search for the three great sccvets.Kalcidoxcopc.
