I suppose there are incidents that took place during the child- i j ... nooa oi persons that are never forgotten to thd end of life. One such took place during the fourth year of my life, when my father said that the negroes were going to rise and we must go to Unsle Billie's, who lived about three miles away. On arriving there we found that a crowd had already gathered there, the meaning of which I could not understand, and we returned the next day. As grew older I learned that a plot had been made by the negroes) in in some sections to kill the white people at that time' which plot had been 'discovered. Itr seems that Nat,Turner,Jwhoit issupposed'was an'educated slave of Southampton county, Va., was at the head (of the plot, whowith a band of 50 or 60 did, on Sunday night, August 81st, 1831, murder 55 white people in said county. Nat with others was executed Nov. 11th, 1831. I . don't suppose the negroes of this section had anything to do - with the plot, though it is said there . were some about Rockingham tha were connected with it. It is said that a camp meeting was being held at Zion. not far from Rockingham when the plo was discovered, and it created such excitement that all services were suspended and a guard placed around the campmeeting and al lowing only certain ones to pass the lines; giving it the appearance of a military camp. We think this affair led the Legislature o North Carolina to enact a law making it a crime to try to teach & slave to read or write. T.ne pen alty for violating this law remain d in force till slavery was abol ished. I suppose that it was the violation of this, law that preacher was arrested in this county and put in jail at Troy in tne early 'ous, but was - soon re leased on condition that he leave which he did. I think he called fimself atrue Wesleyan. H. M. S n iroy Montgomenan.

Varaedworker8 for the public good from every above tha other hundreds of awards voted to the Pabst Brewing company by na tional and internationaLexpositiona held at varions times in the last few decades, a ooCeotion of awards which was received by 06L Oustave Pabst from Antwerp will occupy a higher place in the esteem of the company than all the other medals in the Pabst collection. The awards were brought to Milwaukee by special emissary from' the Interna tional Hygienic and Pure Food exposi tion at Antwerp, Belgium, and include the cross of honor of Belgium, known as the grand prize of the exposition, a gold Mfd"! flrv a diploma elaborately studded with seals of noted Europeans, and set ting forth that Pabst "Blue Ribbon," the beer of quality, received the highest award for purity and excellence at the great ex position held in Antwerp. The awards were made only after the severest tests known to enlightened, science, and dem onstrate, under the signatures and seals of the jury andw commissioners, that the product of the Pabst Brewing company' stood alone among hundreds of other beers submitted at Antwerp for the ex haustive tests of experts. The arrival of the special messenger from Belgium was an event at the offices of the Pabst Brewing company, and al ready the medals have been exhibited to many Milwaukeeans interested in the ex cellence' of this city's product as com pared with that of the best known brew eries in two hemispheres. QET HIGHEST POSSIBLE HONORS. The gold medal, which is about two and a half inches in diameter, bears on one side the head in relief of King Leopold of Belgium, who was the patron of the exposition at Antwerp. On the other side is a likeness, also in relief, of the huge building at Antwerp, in which the pure food and hygienic exhibit was held. The cross of honor, or grand prize, is of beautiful design, somewhat similar to other high European orders. It bears decorations of oak leaves set in gold and red enamel. In the middle of the medal proper Is the coat of arms of the city of Antwerp. The medal is attached to the crown of Belgium, which in turn is sus pended from a ribbon of the tri-color of Belgium. DIPLOMA OP BEAUTIFUL DESIGN. . The diploma setting forth the fact that "Blue Ribbon" beer was awarded the grand priz at the Antwerp exposition is a liSStQ'iTfr designed daa&MB bearing four idealistic figures.

In Europe the exposition is annually givdh the greatest publicity throughout the different centers of population, it being the understood object to apprise the peo ple of what is good and what is not good for their general welfare. The exposi tions of 1906 and 1907 were attended by thousands of tourists from America, the recent rise of public interest in the sub ject of pure foods encouraging investiga tion in the products of tyie world brought together in one vast exhibit. The department of brewing at the Ant werp exposition was one of the ehief fea tures. The fact that the first bter was brewed in what is now the kingdom of Belgium added to the interest in tha ex hibit and inspired wonderful showings from the different interests of the world. All the great breweries of Germany, America, England and other countries made efforts to excel in their exhibits, and when the time came for the highest awards interest was at fever heat. jjllljj Sy- " . Cross of Honor. The tests of the hundreds of samples of bottled beers were most severe. The jury which made the exhaustive tests of the brewery produots was made up of scien tists, university professors and chemists of note appointed by the Belgium minis ter of education. SUBJECTED TO HEAT AND COLD. The fury's task was a severe one, the tests of each beer extending over a con siderable time. Pabst "Blue Ribbon" beer, along with all the others, was for weeks ' alternately subjected to extreme degrees of heat and cold. Of all the beers so tested Pabst "Blue Ribbon" beer was the only one found upon examination to re tain all the properties originally con tained in the brew. It was finally deter mined that the "Blue Ribbon" beer took first place among all the other varieties submitted by American and European breweries. Consequently the highest pos sible honors of the exposition were awarded. The faet that the Americas- beer took first place was all the more remarkable from the fact that it was necessarily transported a great distance, a factor that might ordinarily have been a decided handicap as against the other beers sent to Antwerp. The time that the beer wa in transit from the brewery in Milwaukee was something like four weeks, and it is a generally accepted theory that beer loses through transportation. The Pabst beer apparently was unaffected. Ita dura bility and pureness were found upon ex amination to be without fault. The exposition at Antwerp this s year was held during the months of June, July and August, the months in which the tourist travel is largest. It was opened by King Leopold, under whose protecto rate it was held,- the various monarchies and the French republic appointing dele gates to represent them in the interna tional show. The exhibits were placed in the great building erected several years ago at Antwerp and designed especially for large expositions of the nature of the pure food show. The juries appointed to make tests in the several depart ments of the exposition were appointed by the Belgian minister of education with the approval of the different nations par ticipating in the gathering, the members "being selected with special view to their peculiar fitness to judge of the merits of the products coming under their exam ination. One of the noted members of ' the jury which undertook the stupend ous task of testing-the bottjgd beers and awarding prizes was Prof. Alfred Jorgen sen of Copenhagen, Denmark, than whom there is no better known authority on the subject of , scientific and hygienio brewfng. Others on the jury were men of undoubted ability in their line. The fnct that the host of exhibitors in the department of brewing unanimously ap proved of the membership of the jury be speaks their ability. It Is probable that the awards now in the care of the Pabst Brewing company will be placed on exhibition at an early date, it being the desire of the of ficials to permit the public at large to examine the medals and diploma signi fying the par excellence of Pabst Blue Kibbon Beer.
