MILL BURNED. Charlotte has a $25,000 Fire. Probable Work of Incendiary. - The George A. Howell coarse ) yarn mill, at 206 East Fifth street was burned to the ground last night. The loss was estimated at from $20,000 to $25,000 which was fully covered by insurance. The firels believed to have been of incendiary origin, matches hav ing been discovered in the cotton Thursday by Mr. Howell. So certain was he that some one was trying to burn his plant that he yesterday took out additional in surance on his machinery and cot ton on hand. While the plant was well covered by insurance, Mr. Howell's loss in time and loss of profits will be heavy. The fire was discovered about - 11 :30 o'clock by two workmen employed in the building. They were engaged in one corner of the big room making ready for to ! day's work-iookiug across the building one of them observed a blaze rising above the frame next to the second breaker, Both or them rushed to put it out bufthe fire spread like mad- Seeing that they could do no t h i n g of themseyes, they su m m o n ed the fire department just one block away. Charlotte Observer Feared Failure In Profession. Philadelphia, June 22. Fear ing he could not succeed in his chosen profession, Dr. Henry S Hutchinson, eon of a prominent citizen of this city, co'mmitted suicide in a field at Lansdowne, Pa., near here, by cutting his throat with a razor. The body was found today and it is believ ed he committed the deed a day or two ago. An affectionate let ter addressed to his father was found near the body. It is be lieved that Dr. Hutchinson, after swallowing poison, cut his throat to make sure of his death. Dr. Hutchinson was about 35 years of age and was graduated from Harvard and from the medical department the University of Pennsylvania. A Real Newspaper. The proprietor of a Siamese newspaper has distributed hand bills containing the following no tice, demonstrating no lack of en terprise : "The cows of English we tell the latest. Write in perfect style and most earliest. Do a murder, git commit, we hear of and tell it. Do a mighty chief die, we publish it and in borders of som ber. Staff has each one been col leged and write like the Kipling and the Dickens, We circle every town and extortionate not for ad vertisements. Buy it. Buy it. Tell each of you its greatness for good. Ready on Friday, number first. Bangkok Times. The Law as to Enticing Cooks. The following from the Con cord Tribune will be of interest in Statesville, and everywhere for that matter. For several days past there have been many changes in the em ployment of cooks in this city, and for the benefit of the public a prominent lawyer hands the fol lowing to the Tribune, with a re quest to publish. "Aside from the great impro priety involved in the act one ren ders himself liable to the not too severe penalty," $50 fine or 30 days imprisonment, denounced by the law for enticing a cook to leave the employment of another." It might be added that the same law applies to employes other than cooks. States vi 1 1 e V Tandmark. A Chicken Story. After ten years of experiment ing Clinton H. Willis, a rancher on the Montery road, has produc ed a chicken that can talk. The fowl is the sixth generation of a cross between a parrot and a guinea hen, and in its every char acteristic except the lower half of its bill and the arrangement of its toes the bird'is a chicken. The upper half of the bill is staight like that of the guinea hen, while the lower part is clearly a parrot beak. Its toes are arranged two and two, instead of three and one, as in the barnyard fowls. At present the chicken's vocabulary is limited to "morning, chaw ter backer, Clint," and a swearword, San Jose, Cal., dispatch. , High Prices for Autographs.

A collection of interesting po litical letters between John Quin JM I vn C i I J I u ; :uj rb )(o f I 4n Just how the expression "horse sense" came into use is not known, but the meaning of the combination is good reason, old fashion logic, simple analysis and actual truth, and the basing of your actions upon simple things rather than com plex things. The man who uses "hore sense" in his trans actions gets along farther and faster than the man who uses selfishness and smartness. To be possessed of horse sense is a most valuable asset. It is something you can use every day of your life! "Horse sense" is really one of the things that makes Special Lots of Staple Dry Goods.

Luck is the gambling chance and "horse sense" is the investment and security chance. The man with "horse sense" may not go as far in a day as the man with luck, but he will go more das and go farther in the end than the lucky man.
