The temperature rose so high at Helena, Montana, last week, that ihe mercury climbed "out of the top of the thermometers. It, was a sort of Helena blaze. . The New York Times rejoices in the prospect of a 1,000,000 libel suit. -There is nothing which makes a paper happier when the thermom eter is up than a first-class libel suit. The President ofj Peru complains that when he recently visited one of our cruisers the "commonest courtes Jes" were omitted. Perhaps the usual supply of the Kentucky pro duct had been exhausted before they .struck his beat.' The attempt is being again made to induce the women to abandon the side saddle and get on both sides of the horse. But many of them regard this as only a side issue, and nothing to compare with the bifurcated skirt. ' ' i The Farmers Alliance of Indiana, which has been discussing tax mat ters somewhat, can't see why the stallion Axteil, which recently sold for $105,000, and earned $50,000 last year, should bej assessed at only $500. It is quite a petinent inquiry. , The Chinese are progressive. Yong Lee Ong, a San j Francisco China-, man, not only became a Christian but learntd how to forge names so . well that he was doing a . thriving busi ness forgingthe signatures of revenue agentsto opiumlabeIs, until somebo dy gave him away. Mr. Bailey, of Texas, who it is said will be the youngest man in the, next Congress, being under thirty years of age, is such a rattling good talker that the farmers used to fol lowihrm from town to town in the canipaign last fall to hear him speak. ' That Philadelphia undertaker who charged only 3 for "putting a smile on the face of a . corpse" was quite moderate in his charge. The gen tleman who thus smilingly led in the funeral procession should not object to it. But any corpse ought to smile to get out of town like Philadelphia. Chicago claims that she presents superlative inducements to political conventions because she can supply v O.OOOOOO gallons of water day, with Lake Michigan as a reserve, has more sewers than any town in the country, and 1,625 policemen to Preserve order when the delegates get excited, or pugnacious from drink in2 the water. ; : - E- B.

Information of Value to Persons Interested in the Culture. Rockingham, N. C, Aug. 22, '91. ' Editor Morning Star : Dear Sir : I notice a good deal be ing said about pecan culture and would like to have my "say" too, and at the same time get all the information I can. I got seed from Arkansas and planted about twelve years , ago and the trees now are from twenty to twenty-five feet high; and from six to fifteen inches in diameter and have been bearing for four years. I can say little about the profit of the crop, as I have only a few trees bearing and have put no fruit on the market; but the nuts are fine and well flavored I send vou bv this mail an average samDle of the nut at this stage of growth; there are cjusters on the trees having eight nuts in a bunch. The trees are planted in ordinary soil with barely ordinary cultivation. About four years ago 1 planted a nurserv. the seed also from Arkansas. The trees are about a foot apart in the row and the rows foui feet apart. They are now an inch to two inches in diame ter and from ten to twelve feet high. I transplanted fifty last spring without the loss of a single tree. In every excavation from which I took the trees to be transplanted, have sprung up three, four and sometimes half a dozen young trees from the roots of the adjacent trees lett exposed. The young trees are now two feet high, vigorous and perfect in shape as if from seed. My bearing trees and nursery are in the town of Rockingham, and worth a visit of inspection to those interested. I expect to plant a grove of four or five hundred trees; will begin this fall. I have seen a pecan called the "paper shell," about twice the size of the ordinary nut with thinner shell. I would like to know if any one is familiar with the nut and where to get the seed. I saw the nut at the Exposition in Ocala, Florida. I expect to have on exhibition at the fair in Raleigh this fall a specimen of the nuts grown on my trees, y -I can sit under pecan trees of my own planting and eat nuts of my own pro duction and do not" "mumble them without the teeth, either."

P. E. NINO AT CAROLINA BEACH. Day of Unqualified Enjoyment for Everybody The Military "Take the Cake" Balloon Ascension by Prof. JewelL Never has there been in all probabili ty a more quiet and at the same time enjoyable day passed by any body of troops than was yesterday at the camp of the F. I. L. I. at the Beach, The usual routine of duty was observed, and the balance of the day was spent in bathing, fishing, strolling on the beach, flirting with the girls and sleeping, which latter is not hard to do in the salt sea air, with old ocean murmuring a lullaby. The number of visitors was not so numerous as on Friday, but there was a goodly number of fair women present to add attractiveness and gayety to the pleasures of the day. About 5 p. m. the band attached to the command marched to the Oceanic hotel and for an hour charmed the as sembled hundreds with several choice selections rendered in the best style and which were heartily appreciated by the visitors. Six o'clock in the afternoon was the hour, appointed for the battalion dress parade, but Mr. Stacey Van- Amringe having arrived at the camp bearing an invitation from himself and the management of the Seacoast Rail road Company, for the. military and ba nd to spend Tuesday next at Ocean View, met Capt. John C. Vann, in the absence of Maj. Broadfoot, who accepted the invitation, the command to return to barracks on Tuesday night. When this matter was disposed of, the line was formed and marched to the parade ground, where. dres parade was held; Maj. Broadfoot commanding, with Capt. Vann acting adjutant. The move ments of the two companies, and their proficiency in the manual was the sub ject of very general remark and was much applauded by a number of ex-Confederates who were delighted spectators. UP IN A BALLOON. Professor Jewell made another balloon ascent and parachute drop at 5.80 o'clock, equally as success ful as that of Friday afternoon, reach ing an altitude of about 2,000 feet before commencing his descent and landing in the sound three-quarters of a mile from the place of starting without injury. and where he was picked up by a boat which had previously been sent out for that purpose in case the wind should take him in that direction. a very joHyJcrowdCwhat which oc- cupied the rear end of the rear car of the last' train leaving the Beach, and the passengers in it were regaled with a number of songs by a chorus of male voices. The last one, "Good-bye, My Lover, Good-bye." was sung with great empressment, and was led by Mr. Berry Gleaves, who im provised many verses, only one of which the reporter remembers. It ran thus: "This car has on a precious freight; Good-bye, my lover, good-by, Colonel Kerchner a heavy weight Good-bye, my lover, good-bye." When the train arrived at the boat landing on the. river,- a considerable number of people were found waiting to go to the Beach, among them Major A. A. McKethan, a former commander of the company, and with him were several ! ladies, and some of the first citizens of the goodly town of Fayetteville. NINETY-EIGHT ANNIVERSARY.

In Cumberland County Mr. Luoial Fisher Shot and Dangerously Wounded. Roseboro, N. C, August 20. On Wednesday night last, about 9 o'clock, some one came to the house of Mr. John Oldham, about three-quarters of a mile from this place on the C. F. & Y. V. railroad, and called lor Mr. Oldham, who, being sick in bed, asked Mr. Lucial Fisher, a neighbor of his who was with him that night, to go and see what was wanted. Mr. Fisher had got but a few steps from the door when he was fired on by some one in the bushes near the fence, putting seven shots in his left breast, and as he turned around the second load was fired at him, puttinghree shots in his back. Mr. Fisher is now under the careful attention of Dr. F. J. Cooper, of this place, . It is not known who did the shoot ing. A.' R. H. P. S.
