Paul D'Eojoy enjoys the notoriety attendant upon the assertion by him that he has discovered the "missing link" in the forests of Indq-China, on the. borders of Annam. It" is something like a'man, with hair and tail a la monkey, but can talk. He saw several of them, found that they can talk, but they got away from him. He says he talked with one of them through guides who under stood their language, which they, call the Moi language. It seems to us we have heard about these Moi peo ple with tails, how they made pot tery and sundry other articles for domestic use, but this last tale about these tailed people rather staggers us. According to the official returns from the respective States there were cast at the last election for President 13,732,498 votes, divided as follows: McKinley, Republican, 7,044,884; Bryan, Democrat, 6,452,218; Palmer, decoy, 116,608; Levering, Prohibi tionist, 104,427; Brently, National Prohibitionist, 10,678; Matchett, Socialist-Labor, 9,942. Ater all the boasting of the great victory for "sound money"1 McKinley, notwith standing the many millions spent to elect him, has a majority of only a little over 350,000, out of a vote of thirteen millions and a half. The country is safe now, Henry VVatterson is back with us again. If he can prevail on the Democratic party to fast and pray, and th? party could prevail on Henry to lead the prayer meeting, there is no telling what the result might be. The party might think more kindly of Henry, and he might scold less be cause it didn't take his advice and follow his example in bolting the platform and the nominee, t "Just, tell them that you saw me' was the favorite exclamation of R. Pitcher Woodward, of Brooklyn, N. Y., jis astride of a demure donkey he started from his town last Saturday to ride the donkey across the conti nent, Jn fulfilment of an agreement made before the election, if he should lose, and he lost. In this case the donkey is entitled to sympathy for such a long stretch of enforced asso ciation with the other ass. BfEW ADVEHTISJSatEKTte. Clyde Line Sailing days. Opera House The Nabob.

A Collins, whose residence is on North Froct street betweea Walnut and Red Cross, had a visitor at his house Monday night whom he had good reason to suppose was a burglar, but as it turned out the intruder had simply mis taken the house, s . Shortly after ra daight Mr. Collins was awaxenea Dy tne lurious Darning of a small dog kept in the house, and getting out of bed, with pistol in hand he proceeded to explore the premises. As he started down the stairway to the first floor of the building he saw a man at the foot of the stairs. Pointing his pistol at the supposed burglar he ordered the in truder to halt. The man seemed con fused, bat obeyed the command and sur rendered, unconditionally, but claimed that he had by mistake entered the wrong house. About this time Police Officer Tnos.

Xnw, , f Special Star Correspondence Raleigh, N.C Dec.1. Senator Butler is expected here this afternoon from Sampson county. He rill likely have a discussion with the Populist leaders as to the policy of the Populists in the Legislature. v Y. C. Morton, of Richmond county. writes the editor of the Caucasian . that be will not support Senator Pritchard for re-election under any circumstances. He declares himself in favor of Col. O. H, Dockery. Last evening John Gill, a young white boy, while playing in a store on Mania street exploded a package of dynamite. The young man's arm was torn off and he was very seriously injured. He is yet alive with prospects of.recovery. four prisoners in the penitentiary. two of them serving life sentences and the other two twenty years terms, ad ministered morphine to three guards in an attempt to escape, which might have resulted lataiiy out lor prompt medical attention. James Brantly. who headed the gang that Killed i. B. Bonner.-was the prisoner who made the. plot to escape. The four confederates worked in the brick yard, and through a driver from the city they obtained a vial of morphine. This they induced a Croatan Indian, who waited in the dining room, to put in the coffee of these guards. Morphine is bitter, and the guards nat urally detected something wrong be fore taking all their coffee. Epicac was given two of them and they soon re covered. The third guard was made deathly sick. The Biblical Recorder, publishes the following: By the courtesy of Hon. T. C. Scar borough, . Superintendent of Public In struction, we are able to give facts and figures of his report oo our public schools for the present year, in advance of the publication of the report. There are 635.455 Children of school age (be tween 6 and 21 years) in North Caro lina. Ninety-five per cent, of these. which is 603.673, are dependent on the public schools to teach them to read and write, bach is the great responsibility of North Carolina. If she does not provide schools, 603,673 of the children in her borders have no hope, no opportunity but to grow up illiterate, ig norant utterly. If she provides poor schools, sorry teachers, and keeps them only a few weeks in each year, the chances tor these 603,673 children are but lightly improved. And it is no reflec tion on the teachers to say that this is the condition of the average public school: the reflection is upon the Stae; it is a shame upon the General Assem blies which have met without making better provision; it is a shame upon the people who are intelligent enough to recognize these conditions and to de plore them but who have indifferently tolerated them. No patriot "can stand by and see 603.673 children oat of the total ot 03o.io in tne state com ing to manhood in ignorance because they have no schools, or becausesuch as they have are s? meagrely supported that they are not even kept open long enough to teach a pupil to read or write or figure. Do you question? Let the facts bear us out: There are 7.171 pub lie schools in North Carolina. The amount expended upon them for teach ers is $690,161.54, which is an average of $95 lor, each school a year. Can any one expect to get a fit teacher for this pitiful sum? Will any one bame he teachers for not keeping the schools but twelve weeks at this rate ? The teachers must live. If they have been at all prepared to teach, they can not afford to take such pay even for three months. Most likely all competent teach ers, an competent educated men and women, have the opportunity of working s eadily year in and year out at a better salary per month. This pitiful pay is the root of tne evil. The public scaool sys tern will never improve until the salaries onered are such as to employ competent and well educated teachers. The public school system will never improve until it has larger, much larger financial re sources. Bsar this in mind. We must begin to improve the schools. In this connection let us aDDend two tacts oi interest while we have them at hand. The total number of school dis tricts in North Carolina is 7,807, that is to say (oeanng in mind that the number of schools reported is 7,191) that in 616 districts mere were no scaools at ail. The total amount of money expended on tne public schools lor the year is $835, 265, that is to say coearine in mind the amount paid teachers) that $145,104 was expinaea lor school houses, sites, ex penses of county boards, furniture, fael. etc. - LBy Southern Associated Presa.1 kaleigh, w.u.

New York Journal Key Wist. t Fla., November 9 Unable to ciush the insurgent armies, Captain General Weyler hasaccording to Cuban advices, renewed his war on non-combatants with savage energy. It is stated that he some weeks ago Issued a secret order to his commanders in the various provinces to clear the country of non combatants. This order has been interpreted by the Spanish commanders as an edict to massacre old men, women and children, and the result is an ap palling list of butcheries. Colonel Struch, who has been operat ing in Pinar del Rio at the head of a thousand men, seems to have been most active in carrying out Weyler's savage edict. On November 18th he and 'bis command started on a raid. They vis ited Rio Hondo, Palacios, Paso Real and other small towns ia the southern portion of Pinar del Rio". At every place Colonel Struch gave his troops license to loot, burn and murder, and the result was that every hamlet visited was destroyed. During the raid the Spanish troops made pris oners ot. over 800 Cubans, the .treat majority of whom were women and young girls. These unfortunates were forced to follow the troopers. BUTCHERED HUNDREDS OF WOMEN, On the night of November 23. Colonel Struch and his men drank heavily, and then followed one of the most horrible occurrences of the. war. Inflamed by drink, the Spanish soldiers rushed upon the helpless prisoners, tore off their cloth ing and subjected them to horrible treat ment. Finally, Colonel. Struch significantly told his men that it was no use to be longer bothered by the "Cuban cattle." The soldiers took the hint and immedi ately began firing cn the old men, women and girls. Volley after volley of lead was fired at the cowering and shrieking creatures, ; until not one was left alive. The bodies of the victims were left for the vultures, and Colonel Struch march ed his command- back to headquarters and teported to Captain-Generai Wey ler that several insurgent camps had been "raided and over 300 rebels killed." REWARDED FOR THEIR "BRAVERY." Colonel Struch and many of bis offi cers received furloughs in consideration of their services and returned to Havana. Since going to Havana Colonel Stiuch has, tt is said, openly boasted of the aw ful slaughter of innocents. . t torn other provinces come stories of massacres of innocents, but none so well authenticated as the one related above: Weylsr's edict offering pardon to those who surrender is proving to be simply a device to lure Cubans to death.
