Margaret Craven, of Sin Fraccisce.
Two sections of a freight train col
lided near Pittsburg, Pa., on the Pent
syivatua RiilrOad: both engines and sev
eral Cirs were thrown frooi the track.
At Lexington. S. C , one young
man shojts and fatally wounds another
for talking to his sister after being for
bidden to do so. The Cu'jan in-
su-gects were' victorious in a big fight
near Cabbias.,in Piaar del Rio province;
the Spanish loss was heavy, in comment
ing upon the display of the Cuban flig
at the R-ipu'alican National Convention;
Madrid papers assert that the Cuban
question is not- in Cuba but in the
Uaited States and urge the Government
t i prepare at once for all contingetcies.
A scheme has been' put on fbot to
test the popular feeling in Francs to
wards the restoration of the Monarchy;
the yaeen of bngland to day enters
upon the sixtietn year oi ner reign; ad
vices from Cape Town are to the effect
that the wholeof Mashohaland is in in

Boss Piatt has some advantage of
Mr. Morton. Piatt had all the fun
and Morton footed the bill.
Some time ago it was a fight for
"sound," 'honest," "good" money.
Now it is a fight for gold. That's
about the size of it, and this simpli
fies the phraseology.
p
Hon. Mr. Foster, of Ohio, says
Hon. Mr. Hanna, of Ohio, doesn't
take kindly to being called a Boss.
But he gets in his work and manipu
lates the boys, all the same. ,
As Hanna got the candidate and
Piatt the platform at St. ' Louis hon
ors are easy and they can both
"smile," and there is nothing to pre
vent them from taking a joint
"smile." t
A Chicago jury hash'c been able td
decide whether it is the right thing
to do for a father to give his child an
airing on a bicycle or turn it over to
the nurse and baby carriage and take
the chances of being run. over by the
street cars or a beer wagon.
One 'of our gold contemporaries
sympathizes with Senator Teller as
one "in a'( truly pitiable position."
Not much.: Senator Teller now feels
like one relieved of a great burden.
Since he has thrown it off, he proba
bly feels that life is worth living.
A couple days ago the New York
Advertiser arose' to remark that "the
Hon. Thomas B, Reed does not give
un the fisht '' He does not. Thomas
is like thi average orthodox Repub-
lican. He gives up nothing, but gets
all he can and holds on to it.

The London papers are applauding
the gold standard platform adopted
at St. Louis, or rather the gold
plank. Some time ago when the
Britishers were commending, the
Democratic tariff the McKinley tariff
organs pointed to this as proof con
clusive that the Englishmen thought
they had the better of us. Are they
not rejoicing over the gold plank for
the same reason.'and if not, why not?
The gold by play at St. Louis
does not stop the gold exports. The
reserve is now down to about $103,-
rr r r s a .
uuu.uuu. According to tne pro
gramme drafted at St. Louis we
must continue . this business indefi
nitely of shelling out gold, and
filling up by borrowing more when
the pile gets low.
The general sentiment of the news
paper correspondents . at St. Louis
was that the programme was too
much of a cut and dried affair to
stimulate much enthusiasm, and
even the little that was manifested
in the closing proceedings had a kind
of a put-up ring in it.

OPERA HOUSE.
Weck'a ' Engagement qf Mlae Annie
Abbott to Begin Tc-mcrrtw Nigbt.
Miss Annie Abbott, the woman of
mystery, commences a week's engage
ment at the Opera House to-morrow
night. In speaking of this little lady's
performance, the Charlotte Observer of
June 9;h, says:
Annie Abbott, the Utile "Woman of
Mvstety," from Georgia, charmed, elec
trified or mystified a dozen or more
Charlotte men, making them weak or
strong, according to her will. Charlotte
people are mostly familiar with tbe his
tory of this little woman. For years
she has been giving exhibitions of her
power or skill, whichever it may be,
before nor only the dignitaries of this
country but before the crowned headsof
Europe. -
Dr. Faison and Messrs. Dixon, Of r,
Davis and Harris, in a'nother test, were
unable to lift her from the floor. Waen
their' hands did not come in contact
with her skin it was easy enough to lift
her, but the minute their hands tcuched
her. flesh she was as immovable as the
rock of Gibraltar.
The efforts of the men and their weak
ness in her hands furnished material fcr
Deals of laughter. The audience was
convulsed all the time that it was not
wondering how she did it.

Star Correspondence
Raleigh, N. C, June 20.
There are a large number of people
Democrats advocating the ronination
of Senator Teller at Chicago. There are
eqiaily as many Democrats who say
that they will support McKinley if the
Democrats. go out of the party to secure
a man for the nomination. There is no
doubt but that Teller has gained in
strength in this State since his action
Wednesday in leaving the Republican
party..
State Treasurer Worth has changed
tactics during tbe past week and is won
derfully talkative for a man who has so
long feasted on silence. Mr. Worth said
to-day that if Teller was nominated by
the Democrats at Chicago the patty
would do the wisest thing it ha3 ever
done. He says Prohibitionists, Reput-I
licans, UeT.ocrats. woman aunragists
and all would tupporl Teller, and fur
thermore that he would be elected.
Treasurer Worth says with 'Teller the
candidate of all the silver forces he sees
no reason why the silver forces in this
Slate should not get together.
The first Wake county grown water
melon was brought here to-day.
A negro named Latta, who has a uni
versity and an orphanage located in one
of Raleigh's suburbs recently organ
ized a youth's band and they are now at

write here that they are not fed and are
made to beg their bread. Relatives of
the children have reported the matter to
Mayor Russ.
The Directors of the Deaf, Dumb
and Blind institution decided yesteiday
that Prof. Place, the newly elected prin
cipal of the school should assume his
duties immediately, and accordingly he
took charge this morning.'
It is said that the Southern will put on
a specially low rate jo Morehead next
week. A cheap rate to Wrightsville is
also spck?n ft.
It is given out by Western Republi
cans that soms of the North Carolina
Republican delegates to St. Louis will
affiliate with the s Iver party when it is
organized. They claim that the North
Carolinians did not want to make an
open bolt in this convention.
Fifty tickets were sold to Ocean View,
Va , this morning., The rate is $2.00.

SILVER AND GOLD.
THE ARITHMETIC MAN OF THE STAR
TRIES HIS HAND AGAIN.
Silver Will Hive 568 Delegate at Ch cgo,
While tha Yellow Metal Will Have
342. -The
following table has been carefully
prepared and with due retard to the ac
tual result at Chicago. It is fair and con
servative, and will, we believe, prove to
be very nearly correct. It will be noted
that we place the entire vote cf Minne
sota in the gold column. There was no
unit rule adopted in that State, however,
and the silver men claim stvan cf th;
eighteen delegates. If this shall be the
result at Chicago, the totals cf our table
should bj ai follows: For Silver, 574
for Gold, 338. These figures are within
one vote of the Star s estimate ot las:
Sunday.
It must be boms in mind, too, that
there will be a contest over' the
votes of Michigan, which state was
Dondickinsonized and the voice of the
people stifled. If "these votes shall be
given to the silver men, to whom they
rightfully belong, the figures would be
for Silver, GOJ; Ior Gold, 808; giving
silver within two votes of two-thirds. I
will be observed, however, that we place
the whole vote of Michigan in the gold
column.
