"I have no more money than a rabbit,"

looked very sorry, and seemed to be

prospeet-jf oue who puts himself in the
category of pussy, with nothing but her

solete offices, that Cleveland had allowed
to subside into desuetude, had tobe
resurrected for the purpose. Capt. Jones

l Y visited this Jnill one day this week
and were surprised to see with what ease
a good,' strong, honest pair of hose can be
turned out with the proper machinery;
and for the benefit of our readers we will
try and tell how it is done.
The cotton is bought already spun, and
on quills. These quills are placed on a
frame and the yarn wound on wooden
spools. Some of these spools are taken . to
the rib machines, where each machine
knits one long continuous circular web;
by means of a chain with different sizo
links on this machine a loose and a tight
place is made in tho web at regular dis
tances which gives the tight place on the
top of the leg of the stocking and also
shows where they are to be cut. This
web is then cut into lengths for the top
of the leg or ribbed part of the stocking.
Little girls then take these pieces and
very dexterously insert the needles of the
machine proper in the right places, or as
the old folks would say, " throw it on,"
and it is ready for knitting the leg and
foot. These machines consist of o cylin
der the size arouni of the stocking to be
knit, wth needles working in grooves all
around it. The point of the needle is
like a crochet needle with a lip so hung
on it that when it is pulled through a
loop the lip closes and allows the point of
the needle with the thread to pass
through; as it comes back it opens to take
another. The straight part of the lee
is kbit at the rate of 100 or 150 rounds a
minute. A weight is attached to the top
of the stocking which strikes on a projec
tion and stops the machine when the leg
is long enough. The heel i3 made by
turning the machine part of the way back
and forth by hand, and the toe is made in
the same way. After the stocking comes
off this machine it is taken to another
one presided over by a young lady who space forbids more.

r j nml hp.nrs I nf. )fliei:ll StftlTirt :
no seam is left, and a person not know-
ing where it was joined could hardly find
the place.
The stockings are then sorted, placed on
a wooden form just the size and shape of
the foot, treated to a steam bath and
placed in a hot press and when they come
out are ready to be labeled, tied up in
packages and are ready for market.

parrs of hose per day. At present they '
are turning out only a little over hal
that number on account of lack of hands,
but expect to run the mill to full capac
ity very soon.
The mill is under the management of
Mr. W. T. Raiuey, who it is said is dis
playing a great deal of tact and judg
ment for a business which is compara
tively new to him aid who will no doubt
make a success of it.
Good Public Roais.
This subject is attracting earnest at
tention in South Carolina, Georgia, aud
other Southern States. Indeed, it is a
primary subject of the material prosper
ity of any country. It is not enough to
have railroads you must have good
roads to get your products to the rail
roads. It is mentioned as a fact that
Brazil has a railroad of no practical val
ue because there are uo public roads over
which the products of the country can
reach the railroad. The same cause
operates to retard prosperity among the
farmers of this country, and must con
tinue to do so until our puhlic roads are
improved
We wish to mention in this connec
tion the praise-worthy example of Dav
idson county, where convicts have been
employed on the public roads from
Marsh JP. O. in that county to Healing
Springs P. O., beyond Chalk mountain.
A deal of heaw work was done on
this sectien, and what was, a little back,
an almost impassable road is now made
easv. -
No better use cau be made of convicts.
and the employment of them on our
i
public roads is perhaps the cheapest pos-
sible solution of the questiou "how are
you going to do it?" meaning of course, crops. Tobacco has been damagad con

Weekly Weather Crop Bulletin.
FOR THE WEEK ENDING FRIDAY JULY 5.
the Weef y Bullelin issued by the North
Carolina Experiment Station and State
Weather Service, co-operating with the
United States Sigual Service, show that
there has been a very marked excess cf
rain-fall, about an average temperature
and very little sunshine during the week
ending Friday, June 5. All crops have
been injured byjhe excessive rains. In
the Roanoke valley cotton and oats are
said to have been almost entirely de
stroyed. All lowland crops have beeu
seriously injured. Wheat anil oats which
had not beeu garnered have been very
seriously damaged; the wheat is sprout
ing in the shock. Reports from a num
ber of'localities state that tobacco has
been "drowned out." Fiuit is rotting iu
many places. Tne p;eneial outlook is
very discouraging. Reports from seven
teen stations give an average- weekly
rainfall for the State 4.44 inches. The
normal weekly rainfall for the mouth of
July for the State, ns determined from
observations taken at a number of Signal
Service stations (from four to thirteen
years) in this State and the adjoining
States of Virginia and Tennessee, is 1.27
inches, giving a weekly exce of 3.17
inches. Freshets have occurred in many
places, flooding bottom lands and wash
ing away bridges. The week has been
very unfavorable to farm work and all
crops are getting grassy, the land being
too wet lor plowing.
Eastern District. An excess or
rain, about an average temperature ana
very little sunshine arc reported from the

North Carolina School Teachers' party
which U going to do ns inuclTof llurop
as it U possible o do in six weeks, bailed
oil the StaM! line steamship State of Ne
vada" at 9 o'clock yesterday morning.
The party., consists of 105 persons, of
whom about eighty are teachers, and the
rest their relatives aud friends. Thev
had arranged to sail on Saturday, but
owing to a delay in the unloading of the
freight were unable: to get awav till yes
terday. t J
The party consists of fort 3'-eight gen
tlemen and JifiV-eight ladies. Mr. Eu
gene O. Murrell is conductor. Among
the tourists are ten married ladies, who
will act as chaperons. Among those who
are at the dock to see the travelers off
was -Gov. Fowle, of North Carolina,
whose daughter, Miss Halen Fowle, is in
the party. Some friends who are teach
ers and her father came all the way from
Raleigh to see her ptf.
The party will stay until July 20, in
Scotlaud. From there they will go to
London and Paris. At Larue they will
take the steamer of New York, and ex
pect ta return about August 20.
The GriMom Case.
Raleigh Correspondence to Wil. Messenger.
Raleigh, N. C, July 8. The Grissom
investigation continues, to hold its owu
as the centre of interest here. The testi
mony of Dr. Grissom was continued lata
on Saturday. He testified that he did
nof ask Miss Edwards to run away with
him and did not tell her he would make
her matron under certain conditions, be
cause he knew ho did not have the power
to do so. In the matter of the specific
charges of cruelty to patients, he denied
everything but throwing water in the faces
of some. This, he contended, produced
a desirable mental effect. He denied
that he ever locked up, or had locked up,
two of the female patients and told them
to fight to their hearts content. In short,
as far as he has gone, his testimony has
been a positive denial of everything
"r
The local miblie.
who are intensely interested, are put to
sore straits for the formation of an opin
ion in some of the matters at issue. It is
generally believed that the Dr. is euiltv
of undue severity to some of the patients,
but in the matter of improper conduct
toward the females, the teorle are nuzzled
how to express themselves, consequently,
nothing positive is believed on either
side in those lines. . The investigation
was resumed this morning at 11 o'clock.

The above is my cost mark; ask Mr. Schultz, Jno. Sloan or
Scott Lindsay. You can tell the price of my goods as good as I
can, so come along. Why pay a profit on goods when you can
buy at New York cost? -
I am working for glory don't care a cent for money, just
want enough to live on and pay debts, and that ain't much.
JggpRcmembor we keep no cheap auetio'h or Racket goods;
don't sell any goods but what we can look a man square in the
optics when we' meet him'; and as to these other merchants ?eing
how we can sell at cost. Well, no; but I'll tell
can see: They can see 50 per cent, profit on goods we sell at 10
per cent., and'we smile and smole and smile as above, and if in
stead of picking at me through "their advertising columns
thev would attend to their own business as they should, they
would not have so much time to help me with nnne, Uteris
too short to fuss, 1 ain't got time to fight anything but high-priced
stores and I'll, lick them. yet if they don't put my chunk out.
I am with vmi to stay, ant loing all I can in the way of chin
music and my little nionoy . to improve the town, and now show
your appreciation of "my doing'all I can and give me a whito
mail's sllOW. : ":; . J
