New Jersey men have been very
much misrepresented. A burglar
recently went through a N. J.'bank,
and although there was $100,000
within his reach he Was content with
appropriating the rnodest sum of
$4,000, in whichhe set a commend
able example to fugacious bank
officers. But then, he might have
been a New York, and not a New
Jersey burglar. It s evident, how
ever, that he was not a Republican.
If he had been he would never have
gone off with $4,000 and left $96,
000 behind. V J

CONFEDERATE PENSIONERS-
They Will Bide Free on All Bailroads to
" the Encampment Veterans Will Pay
One Fare far the Bound Trip. j
Pensioners will ride free on all rail
roads to the encampment to be held
this week at Wrightsville. Veterans
who are not pensioners will have to pay
one fare for the round trip. This is the
arrangement that has been made by
Col. E. D. Hall, with the management
of all the railroads, and instructions to
this effect have been given to all con
ductors. I
Pensioners need no tickets. All that
is necessary for them to do is to show
to the conductors on trains the certifi
cate of the Superior Court Clerk Of
their county, that they are pensioners.!
The above statement is made by au
thority of Col. E. D. Hall, whose at
tention was called to the matter by an
article in the Charlotte News of Satur
day, which states that pensioners there
bad applied for passage to Wrightsville
and had been informed that they would
have to pay.
Enormous Ocean Depths.
The deepest measurements ever taken
in the Atlantic were made by the Chal
lenger expedition eighty miles north; of
the Virginia Islands, the depth at that
point being 23,250 feet, 3,875 fathoms, or
about four and a half miles.
The deepest soundings ever taken in
the Pacific, or, in fact, any place on the
globe, prior to 1890, were made in 1885,
in the vicinity ol the Ladrone islands.
in north latitude 12 degrees and 4 min
utes, east longitude 143 degrees and 16
minutes, where the depth was found to
be 26,850 feet. 4,475 fathoms, or about
five miles. I
In Tune, 1890, the United States Sur
vey vessel, Tuscarora, while trying to
determine the practicability of a cable
route to Japan from the western coast
of the United btates, discovered a re
markable depression on the west coast
of the country hrst-named, the Dasin
expedition simply as the "Tuscarora
Deep." The first sounding made j was
on June 12, when 2,427 fathoms of wire
ran out. A few days later they found
what is now considered the maximum
depth of the Pacific 4,655 fathoms, or
27,930 leet.

The First Virginia Regiment arrived
at Richmond about 1.30 a m., Sunday,
and were met by three companies of
the Regiment that did not attend the
Wrightsville encampment, the Howit
zers and the Blue's band, and escorted
to the Armorv of the First amid red
light and torches.
j saored Concert at Carolina Beach.
i The sacred concert, as announced in

member of this popular and deserving
band was at ambition's height to please.
Everybody was more than delighted

sounded for the return trip home.

AT CAMP FOWLE.
.
Preparations for the Beception of 'Confed
erate Pensioners Prominent Person
ages Expected Senator Bansom to
Deliver an Address.
Col. E. D. Hall was down to Camp
Fowle last evening and put everything
in readiness for the coming Veterans
Encampment. The tents have not been
taken down, and will' be used for the
Veterans as used by the State Guard.
Much interest is being manifested all
over the State in the Encampment and
it promised fair to be one of the most
pleasant and interesting meetings of its
kind ever held in the State.
DISTINGUISHED VEFERANS
frchn all over the State are expected.
All the Confederate Generals have been
invited and many are expected. Among
them of this State are the following:
Generals Hoke, Cox, Barringer and
Ransom. Governor Holt will be
down there for two days, and
will no doubt enjoy it equally as
much as he did the encampment of the
State Guard. Senator Matt Ransom
will deliver the address on Friday. The
full programme has not yet been made
out, but will be announced to-morrow.
Gen. Robt. Ransom, who will be in
command of the camp, will arrive to-day
and see that everything lacking in any
way will be arranged at once. Col. Hall
has been at the camp with Col. Olds,
and both have been quite busy. So it is
very likely that Gen. Ransom will find
everything in readiness.
THE1 ARRIVALS.
Most all the "vets" will report by
Wednesday morning, or hardly later
than Wednesday night. A large crowd
is expected to-day. 'Four came in last
night Irom Pitt county. They all bear
the marks of honorable service. One
carried a wooden leg to tell its
tale and an empty sleeve of anoth
er bears testimony of ' valiant ser-'
vice. They all speak with much inter
est of their Encampment, and appre
ciate the effort being made to provide
lor them. The following are those who
came in last night, Billey Dunn, 'James
Turnagc, Lawrence Briley, and J. A,
Stevens.
Col. Hall says the citizens of Wil
mington are acting very generously by
them, and some are making very
appropriate donations. Nothing should
be spared to make this a week of full
pleasure for those who rallied to ther
protection of our State and her honor.
They freely gave their means; they made
every sacrifice necessary, and now is
the time to show our appreciation.
The Norfolk, Wilmington & Charleston
Bailroad.
A dispatch from Norfolk, Va., says:
"The engineer corps engaged in running
the route of the Norfolk, Wilmington
& Charleston railroad from Gilmerton
Locks, near Portsmouth, through the
Dismal swamp, reached Cornland yes
terday and will be at Wallaceton to
morrow, ten miles from South Mills. The
engineers seem to be working slowly,
but it is said they are doing it carefully.
From South Mills they will probably go
over two routes one to Elizabeth City
and one some distance north of that
place.
The people of Elizabeth City are al
ready moving to have the road touch
there. There is some talk .of the Nor
folk, Wilmington & Charleston utilizing
the road-bed of the Dismal Swamp
canal from Gilmerton to South Mills,
which is the entire length of the water
way. While the proposed road will run
through a flat country requiring little
grading there will be a vast amount of
bridging and trestling to be done."
On this end of the line good progress
is being made, there being about 800
hands employed in the work. The way
is 'cleared about 18 miles beyond
Jacksonville or within about three miles
of Mavsville. and grading is going on
all along the cleared portion.

OBITUARY. .
Mrs. Nancy Forney Johnston, of Lincoln
County, N. C.
Yesterday at Birmingham, Ala., at
the green old age of 86, there passed
from this life to the realms above, there
to dwell in glory forever, one of the
brightest old ladies ever reared in this
Commonwealth. She was the daughter
ot General Peter Forney, a Revolution
ary soldier from Lincoln county, and
the widow of Dr. W. H. Johnston, of
the same county.
Since the war, until a few years back,
when she accompanined her sons, Gen.
Robert D., and Capt. Tas. F. Johnston,
to Birmingham, she had made her home
in Charlotte, N. C. There her name
was a household word and she was uni
versally beloved and esteemed for the
possession of those rare characteristics
which adorn the Christian.
Her modest worth, quiet charity, abid
ing taitb, motherly affection united with
all womanly graces, made up a consecrat
ed character whose influence will con
tinue to be felt by all who ever came in
contact with her. She died as she had
lived in the faith of the Presbyterian
Church. .
