There is nothing to prevent Mrs. James Brown Potter from coming down flat-footed when she wants to. She does not wear heels on her shoes. As registers for election the burg ers of Philadelphia seem to be hustlers. With a popnlation of 1, 096,964 that city has 285,000 regis tered voters, while New York, with a population of 1,515,304, has 265,000 registered. The Rothschilds have made their great fortune, estimated at $2,000,000,000, since the battle of Waterloo. At the rate it has in creased it is figured out that in 1965 it would amount to $60,000,000,000, which is six times as much money as there is in the world now. The New York Advertiser, Rep., says Senator David Bennett Hill is better than his party, which is an ad mission that D. B. H. - is a pretty good sort of a fellow. About the only serious fault it finds with him is that he isn't a Republican. In the estimation of a good many people this is Senator Hill's towering virtue- A masculine citizen of Raleigh came very near getting his face clawed for inadvertently puffing some cigarette smoke into the face of a monkey in the menagerie on the fair grounds. The average monkey might stand cigar smoke, but no self-respecting monkey would fail to promptly resent a puff from a ciga rette. Ex Speaker Reed says "cheapness, with money to buy, is a great bless ing." This is a double cut at Mc Kinley, who four years ago said a good deal about cheap goods being "nasty goods" and at Benj. Harrison, who discovered that a "cheap coat made a cheap man." Mr. Reed hadn't made his discovery then, but thousands of house keepers had. The Washington, N. C Progress quotes a lady as saying, that she didn't "know much about politics, but she did know that before the advent of the Third party the people were contented and friendly, and since that time there has been strife, brother against brother and friend against friend." This observant lady has taken in the situation, and diagnosed the Third party. Its leaders are apostles of hate. The spider is said to be a voraci ous eater and a first class glutton. An Englishman who boarded one for several months and kept count of what it ate, says that eating in the same proportion a man weighing 166 pounds would require a whole fat steer, and no small one either, for breakfast, a steer and five sheep for dinner, and two steers, eight sheep and four hogs for supper, and then want a lunch of five barrels of fish before retiring. And yet the aver age spider seems to be pretty healthy. The Populist speakers and writers have a greal deal to say about the low price of cotton now and charge that the Democratic party is respon sible for it, but they know better. The fact is cotton has been declin ing in price for twenty years. The crop of '73-74, brought 17 cents a pound; of '74-75, 15; of '75-76, 13 ; of'76-'77, 11.73; of '77-78, 11.28, and it has been "steadily declining since. The Democratic party was not in power until March 4, 1893, and it would be just as reasonable and just as honest to hold it respon sible for the decline in all these twenty years as it is to hold it re sponsible for the low price now. " Have You Thought?" That the Overgaiters made by the Co lumbian Over-Gaiter Company are not onlythe most elegant and stylish finished for a Lady's or Gentleman's dress, but an actual necessity when you think how they protect the extremities and keep the blood warm at the lowest point of its circulation, thus obviating the dan gers caused by wearing high tight-fitting shoes.

Hail Stones as Iiarge as Walnuts that Broke Skylights and Smashed Window-Panes Lightning's Freaks Heavy Rain. A hail storm of remarkable severity passed over the city last night. It was preceded early in the evening by light showers and taint flashes of lightning in the northwest. About half-past eleven o'clock the storm reached the city, and a down-pour of hail began that astonished everybody. The side walks were covered with the icy pellets, some of which were as large as walnuts, cracked window-glass and made a terri ble racket on tin roofs of buildings in the neighborhood of the Star office. During the storm there were vivid flashes of lightning. One of the bolts struck the electric light wires and put out the lights in the Express office, at The Orton and other places in the city. At the Western Union office a ball of fire entered the operators' room and danced around, creating some alarm. There is little doubt that the srorm did considerable damage around town, but owing to the late hour at which it occurred it was impossible to get particu lars. Mr. W. A. Johnson, of the firm of Johnson & Fore, who visited their store soon afierthe storm, found that the sky light was smashed and rain was pouring into the building. His timely arrival, however, enabled him to take measures to prevent damage to the stock of goods in the store.

His acting in the death scene was re markable for a child of bis age. Mr. James E. Nelson, as Sir Francis Levison, was especially good. He is the villain of the company, yet an exceed ingly clever one. Miss Melville, as Lady Isabel and Madam Vine, was per fect in tbe interpretation of her parts.

ACCIDENTS IN ONSLOW. One Man Killed by a Falling Limb on the Highway Another by a Tree He Cut Down. A correspondent of the Newbern fournal, at Catherine Lake, Onslow county, writes of two sad and fatal acci dents near there. He says: "While Frank Padget and his wife were riding along the road in an ox-cart. a tree broke on some ten feet from tbe ground striking Frank on the head, kill ing him and crippling his wife. He lived about fifteen minutes after being struck After the tree fell he got up and walked around the cart and asked his wife if she was hurt, and halloed for help and Jerry Rochels came. Frank told him to get a quilt out of the cart to put his head on, and he laid down and crossed his legs and hands and told them good-bye for he was gone, and he died within fifteen minutes. "Another accident happened near the same place. While Mr. Tom Pierce was out coon hunting, the dogs treed and be cut tne tree flown, as it leu a limb broke off, striking him on the head killing him instantly. St. Andrew's Church- Rev. James M.

THE COTTON MARKET. Leea Speculation Than Ever Before Known and Prioea the Lawest on Heoord. Hubbard Price & Co's., weekly cotton letter (Oct. 26) says: Under the weight of pressure to sell from Southern buyers, the market has touched the lowest point on record, and perilously near the price of three pence in Liverpool, which to many has been considered as the lowest point to which cotton would decline during the year. When we are so close to this figure! which is the lowest record ever made by the price of cotton, we are confronted by the fact that the supply seems to be growing larger rather tban smaller, and mat me auscnuc oi speculation is even a more noticeable feature now than it was at a higher range of values. The market this year has been one in which speculation has not been a factor, except so far as offerings for future shipments by Southern buyers have affected tbe European markets. In the large speculative centers there has been no demand for cotton for investment purposes, and the old story of tbe pro ducer attempting to sell bis entire crop to a consumer who only requires a small portion of it for immediate use, is the reason that prices have declined so rapidly without the interposition of any buffer between the two elements, which at different times cause an advance or a decline in values. The question now to be decided is whether the consumer at present prices will absorb a sufficient quantity of cot ton to arrest the decline and cause the producer to recover from the state of de moralization which he appears to be rapidly approaching through the break- ng oi tite markets under the offerings of bis product to the spinners. So far as speculation is concerned, that element must be laid aside. There is less specu lation in cotton, and therefore this factor must not be at all considered in any questions which invole a change in the course of the markets. With the producer and the consumer only to be considered in the situation. is evident that the consumer has the advantage provided that the large esti mates ot the producer are borne out. Nine million bales is generally accepted as the crop for this season, and tbe con sumption is variously estimated at from 8 250,000 to 8,500,000 bales. It is freely admitted that at present prices the con sumer will absorb all of 9.000,000 bales of cotton, placing the surplus away in the invisible supply, as he feels confident that if the planting season opens at the present range of values that all the lands which will require the expenditure of large sums of money for fertilizing ma terial will be devoted to the production of corn or other products, which will be more profitable at present prices than cotton. The reaction which occurred during the early part of the week was a natural one from the extreme depression and was quickly lost, but to-day the market has presented a different appearance, as the rally appears to have checked the disposition of Southern buyers to antici pate a further decline in prices, and has caused them to look about to secure the cotton to fill their October shipments We are rather inclined to think that the market for the next week or ten days ill present a steadier tone than it nas ior some time past on account of the covering of this large short interest, which does not exist in speculative centers, but exists on the part of the Southern buyers who have sold so freely for shipment to Europe at prices which now show them a hand- som profit, and that they will devote their energies for some time to come to secure the cotton necessary to complete tnese contracts. 1 ne possibilities of storm are yet to be considered in the cotton trade, but at present this possi bility is not a lactor in the situation. RANSOM AT ROXBORO. The Speech of His Life'' Friend and Foe Agree That It Was a Great One. Charlotte Observer Special Roxeoro, October 25. The town has been literally full of people to-day, the attraction being Senator Matt. W. Ran som. He arrived this morning at o'clock and was placed in the carriage of Hon. J. A. Long, who met him in Dur ham, and escorted to the Hotel Win stead, where,bis room was thronged all tbe morning by bis warm personal ad mirers, of whom there are multitudes in this county. It was a genuine pleasure to see him meeting and greeting so many of bis old soldier boys. Promptly at 1.25 the General entered the court house where he was received with warm applause by the already packed house. He was then introduced by the Chairman of the Democratic Executive Committee, Col. Jno. S. Cun ningham, in a very graceful and eloquent manner. Notwithstanding the fact that he is but a plain farmer his introduction of the Senator to-day proved that he was a speaker of no mean ability. Our peo pie were prepared to hear a great speech and they were not disappointed, for we think be made tbe speech ot bis life 1-nend and foe alike pronounce it great speech. We heard one gentleman say it was the finest speech ever made in Roxboro. He used facts and figures and bis remarks to tbe Populists had effect here to-day. The court house bad been decorated by the ladies with growing plants and evergreens and it presented a beautiful appearance. Quite a number of ladies were present and listened. atten tively throughout the entire speech, which was about three hours in length, THE STATE FAIR. Twenty Thousand People Attend the State Fair -Track Record Broken. Raleigh, Oct 25. There were 20,000 people at the State Fair to-day, all parts of the State being represented. The races were lively, and Lissa, of L. Banks Holt's Alliance farm, broke tbe track record by trotting a mile in 2.19. There was an exciting occurrence at the bal loon ascension. A man and dog went went up. each attached to a parachute. The slings holding the dog broke. He fell from a great height and was dashed to pieces. The man was so unnerved that he did not cut loose his parachute, but descended with the balloon. To-day was Confederate Veteran's day at the Fair. Great numbers were present. The annual meeting of the North Car olina Association was held this evening. Col. E. D. Hall presiding. The thirty-fourth annual meeting of tbe North Carolina State Agricultural Society was held this afternoon. Presi dent Julian S. Carr presiding. He was re-elected by acclamation. Addresses were made by a number of prominent men, including Governor Carr. Have you read "The Scarlet Letter," by Nathaniel Hawthorne? You can get it through the Star for one coupon and five cents.

The annexed extracts from the Messenger-Intelligencer's account of the great meeting at Wadesboro last Wed -nesday will be read with interest: "Literally, yesterday was a red letter day in the history of Anson county De mocracy. At an early hour the streets were alive with the unterrified, all wear ing red shirts, and by half-past 10 o'clock, when the street procession formed, at least 1,500 horsemen were in line. The procession, headed by the Morven Cor net Band, formed in front of the old Methodist church. The old veterans, 200 strong, on foot, followed the band, and then came the clubs of the various townships of the county. The proces sion was leviewed from the court house by Senator Jarvis, the speaker of the day, and as the enthusiastic horsemen galloped by they greeted him with thun derous cheers. The old veterans, God bless them! They are still true to Democracy. It would be impossible to imagine a more touching picture than these gray haired. maimed defenders of their country marching, on foot, to a second d fence of the principles for which they shed their blood as freely as water thirty years ago. But now, thanks to the party which they uphold, their weapons are not shot guns and bayonets, but lutle strips of paper. A striking feature of ihe procession was the very large number ot o!d men who participated in it. Gray beads and stooped shoulders, ages' honorable badges, were conspicuons all along the line. Mr. Joseph Allen, who is 86 years old, rode at the bead of the Wadesboro club. A large float, drawn by four horses with red trappings (each horse ridden by a young man dressed in red), and occupied by twenty-five beautiful young ladies, waving flags and handkerchiefs, was a feature of the procession worth riding miles to see. It is safe to say that the young men who pay court to these sweet lassies must be "of simon pure Democratic stock. FrayerMeeting. At the rooms of the Young Men's Christian Association, northwest corner of Mulberry and Front streets, at 8 o'clock to night, the weekly prayer and experience meeting of working and busi ness men will be held and a cordial invi tation is extended to all men, especially officers and crews of steamers and other vessels in port. This Afternoon at the Opera House. This afternoon at 2.b0 o'clock the Baldwin-Melville Company will produce the beautifui domestic comedy "Hoops ot Gold" at the Opera House. Prices will be. for adults, 25 cents; children, 15 cents. The great Temperance drama, ATen Nights in a Bar-Room," will be given at night. AN UNUSUAL CATCH. Star Correspondence. Morehead City, Oct 24. Some parties here the other day were out fishing with hook and line, about two and a half miles from shore, in sixty five feet of water, when one of the party threw out his hook, having an iron spike for a sinker. A clam, feeding with its mouth open, the spike dropped into it and closing on it the clam was drawn up and found to be very large; consider ably over tbe ordinary size. This was an unusual catch, being in 65 feet ot water, and is something un thing unknown in the history of the oldest inhabitant. The fishermen say this remarkable bed of clams is all along the coast and must contain not less tban one hundred mil lion bushels. One not knowing would be surprised at the magnitude of this fishing industry. Mr. Bell, a large dealer and shipper here, shipped from the middle of last January to the middle of April, fifteen hundred barrels of clams to Northern markets mostly in sugar barrels some to New York, but mostly to Albany. Tbe smallest sizes are called " little necks," and when in market they are roasted and placed on stands on the streets and sold like the vendors sell peanuts. In the Summer season these small ones are transplanted in beds and in a very short time are ready for market. To give some idea, Mr. Bell Wednesday shipped a car load of clams in barrels to New York, but mostly to Albany, where they met with ready sale at remunera tion prices. Bill Bufealo. THE WEATHER. U.
