The Scorning Jtar. l: WILLIAM II. BERNARD. WILMINGTON, N. C. Si-xnv Morning, Jan. 11, 1891 THE WORlD'S FAIR. We take it for granted that North Carolina will be represented at the World's Fair in Chicago, because she cannot afford not to be represented i he onlv question is as to hjpw she will-be represented and to what ex tent, whether by a hatful of ex hibits or by a liberal display of he varied products. If she is to be represented at all it will take money to do it. It takes money to do al most anything these days, but this is one of the things m which money, even a pretty large amount, can be well and profitably expended. in pursuance we suppose of the resolution passed at the Southern Immigration Convention held at Asheville last month, Governor Fowle in his message to the Legisla ture recommends an appropriation of $25,000 for that purpose. No one who believes that North Carolina should berepresented at the Fair will say that this is a large sum for such an ob ject. It is a mere trifle compared with what some of the other South ern States will expend, Texas, for instance, which proposes to expend a million dollars. But Texas has the advantage of North Carolina in being very rich, and in having more money in her treasury than she knows what to do with. But twenty-five thousand dollars judiciously used will be sufficient, perhaps, to do all that is necessary in securing and managing a respectable exhibit. The presumption is that with such a patriotic and progressive people as ours, the State will have the hearty co-operation of individuals and cor porations in securing an exhibit that will do us credit. The leading railroads of the State will doubtless avail themselves of the opportunity to make collections and exhibits of the most valuable resources, minerals, timbers, stones, farm products etc. of the country tributary to them. If the railroads resolve to do' this with system and energy, they can of themselves with in the time they have, make collec tions in these lines the aggregate of which would make a supurb ex hibit. The operators of the various mines in the State who are interested in the development and success of the mining industry can. each make contributions of attrac tive specimens as products of their respective mines, while the owners of stone properties, marble, granite, sandstone, soapstone, can do the same. The land improvement companies of which there are now a good many in the State, and which are composed of shrewd, progressive business men would find it to their interest to show what the particular sections in which they operate offer to home seekers or investment seek ers, and the manufacturers of the State will have patriotic pride enough to contribute liberally from the pro duct of their respective industries. It was by this kind of public spir ited co-operation with the State that the exhibit at the Industrial Expo sition at Atlanta in 1882 was made, which though not large, for the time given for the collection was short, was one of the best upon the grounds and attracted more attention and ex cited more admiration than any other exhibit on the grounds. It is said that the result of this exhibit was that $5,000,000 has been invested in properties in this State. A part of that exhibit was afterwards sent to the American and South American Exposition at New Orleans, where it also attracted much attention. This exhibit and a hurrried one too, was mainly the work of one railroad cor poration, the Hichmonckand Dan vHe, which secured collections of some of the leading mineral and other products in North Carolina drained by its main line and branches. As supplemental to this $25,000 appropriation by the State why might not some of wealthier and progressive counties of the State take a local interest in being well represented, and make a reasonable appropriation for a creditable col lection of its more valuable products, of field, forest, mine, quarry and shop, and thus make special ex hibits as a part of the State exhibit? With such joint action and co-ope-ation with the State as we have sug gested, with well directed endeavor, by the time the Fair opens North Carolina may have an exhibit that will open the eyes of sight-seesr, and make North Carolinians who happen to drop in that way even prouder of her than the proudest now are. MOTOR MENTION. Some of the disgruntled Force-bill advocates were very bitter in their censure of Vice President Morton for vacating the chair last Monday when the Force bill was shelved and the Financial bill taken ud, accusing him of complicity with the enemies of their pet measure. But he says it was a sudden change in the pro gramme which surprised him quite as much as it did Mr. Hoar and Co. who were bagged when they least suspected the proximity of any bags. Mr. Morton, as is his custom, went out to lunch, leaving Mr. George speaking on the Force bill. He had called Senator Harris to the chair to preside in his absence. He expected to find George belabor ing the Force bill when he got back and didn't dream of anything to the contrary until he heard how unex pectedly and effectively the Hoar drowd had been sat down upon, when he hastened back and took his seat. The fact is that Mr. Stewart, seeing his opportunity, was smart enough to take advantage of it and bring his free coinage amendment to the front, and th Democrats were smart enough to see their opportunity to hang up the Force bill, took advan tage of it and backed Stewart, just as they should have done. It is said that the anti-silver men in the Senate concede the adoption of the free coinage amendment but are counting on its defeat when it goes to the House, where they ex pect Tom Reed to have it strangled as it was last session. While the sil ver men in the Senate have made an able and aggressive advocacy of their cause, the debate on the other side has been tame and weak, their objections to free silver coinage be ing based mainly on predictions as to what will happen when silver is put on monetary level with gold. But as Rome of these predictions are rep etitions of similar predictions made whenever there was a proposition to reinstate silver, and as they are re called now only for their signal fail ure, they don't terrify the silver ad vocates a bit. The free coinage men have logic and the people on their side, while the other side have but their own lurid fabrications and the money kings, whose interest it is to keep down the volume of curren cy, make it hard to get, and interest high. Capt. S. S. Leach, of the Missis sippi River Commission has made a report in which he says that skilled engineers estimate that for $10,000, 000 a system ot levees can be con structed which will effectually pro tect the lands from inundation pro vided they are properly watched and maintained, which would involve an expenditure of less than $1,000,000 a year. The States iaterested in this should be willing to pay their pro portion of the expense of construc tion, of watching in flood times and keeping in repair. He says that with an effective lever system the carrying trade of the river would be revolutionized and that 30,000,000 acres of fertile lands, now useless, could be brought into cultivation, but this, he holds, can never be had until the Government takes charge of the work which ha's heretofore been left to the few States and indi viduals interested. There is good common sense in what he says. The Nebraska solons have got that State mto a muddle sure enough and have supplied her with an Alh ance Governor, a Democratic Gov ernor, while the Republican Gover nor declares that he will not surren der until the proper tribunal declares that he shall. The probabilities are however, that he will decide to su render, as he does not seem to have much of a backing. The Sta,te offi cers, who have been sworn . in, re cognize Eoyd as Governor, while th Legislature, it is said, will recognize Powers. As the Supreme Court has adjourned till Tuesday the tangle will last that long, at least, if not longer. STATE TOPICS. Senator Vance is now in Raleigh where he met with a cordial recep tion, the members of the Legislature paying their respects shortly after his arrival. The Chronicle says there is no talk of any opposition to his re-election, and the opinion among members of the Legislature is that he will be elected without opposition That's the proper thing to do, and even the Republicans who happen to occupy one corner ought to be socia ble and sensible and make it unani mous by voting with the Democrats for him. The election takes place on the second Tuesday after the or ganization of the Legislature which will be a week from next Tuesday. CURRENT COMMENT. The Indian war is being su pervised from Washington in the old old fashion. There are supersedures and investigations and brisk mes sages by wire, where there should be overwhelming reinforcements. The Little Pedlington plan of campaign is poor busines. Phtl. Record, Dem Possibly the Indian might prove to be a much better man than he is supposed if the government agents would try the experiment of dealing honestly with him. At present our frontier ambassadors are giving ghim a very poor opinion of civilization. Savannah Aews, Dem. The question of suffrage in the States has been prettv thorough ly ventilated in the Senate during the debates on the force bill, and it does not appear that perfection on this subject has been found any where. Particularly in States whence the most heated advocacy of the bil comes very glaring defects have been made apparent. N. Y. World. Dem. The Republicans have a happy faculty of finding consolation in disaster. They now smile serenely and declare that the newly elected Democratic majority will tear things to pieces in the r uty-Second Con gress. No, they will busy themselves with picking up the pieces into which the Republicans have torn things, and trying to save the little that's left. They will have plenty to do, too. N. Y. Herald, Ind. FLJJTES OF THE PYRAMIDS. (i Played 3,000 Years After Burial, They Show that Eg-yptians Had Our Scale. ; London Daily News. A; number of eminent musicians were invited to listen to a highly in teresting lecture delivered yesterday to the Royal Academy students by Mr. T. L. Southgate, upon ancient Egyptian musical instruments in general and upon the double pipes recently discovered by Mr. Flinders Petrie in the tomb at Kahun in par ticular. From the fact that the flutes shown in the frescoes were" of variolas lengths, Mr. Southgate con jectured that the Egyptians almost fromlthe time of Moses must have had knowledge of some sort of har mony while as in one of. the frescoes sevenj flute performers were simul taneously playing an eighth had whatf he whimsically described as "fifty bar rest." Still more interestiug was the ex hibition of the actual flutes dis covered in the lady's sarcophagus at Kabun, and indisputably dating be fore gthe time of King David of Israel, Performed upon (and the task Of playing these archaic instru ments is now most difficult) by J. Finn,: they yesterday gave practi cally the exact notes of our diatonic scale thus proving in everv sense of the term to actual demonstration that our scale was known to the Egyptians many centuries before the Qreeks, from whom it had erro neously been supposed we borrowed it. No attempt was made to per form lupon the double flute, and. indeed, if ever the two were played togetner tne art is now lost. But upon1 a coov of- one of thK ancient flutes Mr. Finn .performed a very ancient funeral dirge entitled "The Song of Sonus." The tone of these instruments, we mav arM in no way resembles that of the flutes of to-day. It, to a certain extent, recalls the drone of the baeDioe. al though one prominent musician yes terday irreverently likened it to the sound of the small-tooth comb anrl tissue paper of childhood's days. Many other copies ot ancient in struments were tried vesterdaty among them a replica of a flute (dis covered two years ago by a French savant) with eleven holes, the ap proximate date being 1575 B. C, that is to say, during-the period that the Israelites were still in Egypt. To "stop" eleven holes in a flute would seem to demand that one of the hands should havean extra fin ger; but Mr. Finn, after many trials, has succeeded in doing it, and the notes given were practically those of our chromatic scale. From these and other facts Mr. Southgate, in the peroration to his very valuable lecture, contended that the tonality of the ancient Egyptians was the source of our own music, and cer tainly none of the musicians present were willing to contradict a doctrine which seems quite feasible. CAT'S WHISKERS. They Are Useful as Well as Ornamental. The long hairs on the side of the cat's face are-organs of touch. They are attached to a bed of fine glands under the skin, and each of these long hairs is connected with the nerves of the lip, says the South Boston News. The slightest contact of these whiskers with any surrounding ob ject is thus felt most distinctly by the animal, although the hairs them selves are insensible. They stand out on each side of the lion as well as on the common cat. From point to point they are equal to the width of the animal's body. If we imagine, therefore, a lion stealing through a covert of wood in an im perfect light we shall at once see the use of these long hairs. They indicate to him through the nicest feeling any obstacle which may present itself to the passage of his body; they prevent the rustling of boughs and leaves which would give warning to his prey if he .ere to attempt to pass' too close to a bush; and thus in conjunction with the soft cushions of his feet and the fur upon which he treads the claws never coming in contact with the ground they enaDle him to move toward his victim with a stillness even greater than that of the snake, which creeps along the grass and is not perceived until it is coiled round its prey. Is this evolution or de sign? PERSONAL. Frau Sophie Salvanius, an able German woman of letters, has issued an appeal to her countrywomen to reform those national modes ot education which consider girls simply as future wives and housekeepers. Their present training, she says leaves German women without individuality, and with pitifully low ideals of life. That generous Craosus, Baron Hirsch; proposes to send to the Argen tine Republic some half-million of the Jewish victims of Russian persecution. President Pettigrini offers an asvlum and active help to the thriftv immi grants, and it is said that Baron Hirsch is ready to spend $20,000,000 to carry out his plan. The Empress of Russia is 43 years old. Russians say that she has not the capacity of the Princess of Wales to look considerably younger than her years. The chin begins to double, and the cheeks have long since taken a com fortable expression. Her figure also grows matronly, though still she is an indefatigable dancer, Sitting Bull's language was a compound of pure Sioux and mongrel English, in which a number of French words were mixed. The latter had been picked up from the post traders, and as their expressions were frequently more emphatic than polite a tenderfoot was not-apt to be surprised when talk ing with the Indian chief by the vigor ous meaning of his phrases. Prince Chun, the Chinese Prime Minister, appears to be recover ing from his long illness. The populace attribute it to the neglect of the Em peror, when building a residence for his father, to have the site cleared of evil spirits, who accordingly torment the occupant. It is reported among for eigners, however, that the Prince is try ing to break off the opium habit. Prince Victor, of Holenlohe, has completed the plaster cast of the life-sized statue of the Princess of Wales, subscribed for by English ladies. When the marble statue is finished it will be placed in . the Royal College ot Music. Prince Victor is said to have succeeded in producing a striking pre sentment of the Princess. She is re produced in the doDtor's cap and gown. belonging to her Dublin musical degree. OUR STATE "CONTEMPORARIES. The Legislature ought to lean enough to the farmers to give them a law for the encouragement of sheep husbandry. A good dog law would be a wise de parture. Winston Sentinel. Nearly three millions of dollars in new enterprises in progressive Greens boro last year! Think of it! Where is there another town with the same pop ulation that can make as good a show ing? Greensboro Record. Admitting all that has been said of the bad character of the Indian they are entitled to fair and just treatment. In this age no Government can be unjust to its subjects and escape the censure of mankind. New Berne Journal. Many of the claims which will be presented to the Legislature are highly meritorious, but how everything that is wanted is to be granted without a ma terial increase in taxation will be rather difficult, we imagine, td figure out.
