They used to yank out halibut In hundreds from our bays, And shad ran up the banks to bite At least, so father says. They never thought of using bait To lure the wily trout, They reached a bushel-basket down And simply dipped 'em out, And in in about an hour or two They'd fill up several drays. . And sow them through the neighbor hood At least, so father says. In short, they caught so many fish That 'fore their sport was through The stream where they were fishing would Go down a yard or two, And not an angler failed to come Home loaded in those days A habit father still pursues At least, so mother says.

Board of Internal Improvements. The 'Board of Internal Improve ments was recognized by the Auditor and Treasurer, and the members had no trouble in getting their per diem and travelling expenses. The total cost of, the meeting was $75. Demana for tne dooks ana records ot the former Board of Internal Improve ments was made on the Governor this morning by Mr. Armistead Jones, president of the new board. It is pretty certain that the Governor will refuse to recognize Mr. Dortch as State's proxy and will himself appoint a proxy. Having done this he will go into the courts and ask for an in junction to restrain Mr. . Dortch from casting the vote of the State and to prevent the stockholders recognizing him. This, Mr. J. C. L. Harris says, will be done, not on account of any per sonal objection to Mr.. Dortch, but be cause the charter gives the Governor the appointment of proxy; that the law transferring his appointment to the Board of Internal Improvements is an amendment to the charter, and that no such amendment can be adopted except by consent of the stock- noiaers. Such is the contention of Gov. Rus sell and his friends, and jt will pro bably form the basis of another suit. PITT COUNTY MURDERERS. Taken to Raleigh to Prevent -Lynching.

The officers who broueht to jail here Elijah Joyner and Cephus Langley, the two negroes accused of the Don- gola murder and arson, say there can be no doubt of Joyner s guilt. Liang ley, however, they are inclined to be- leve is innocent. Though there is some circumstantial evidence against him that he has never cleared up, the principal testimony against him is that given by Joyner, who it is believed is lying. He has never told exactly the same tale twice. In Joyner's house a bloody vest and a bloody club were found. Notwithstanding the lack of con clusive proof against Langley, the oihcers think he would have been lynched along with Joyner had they been allowed .to remain in jail at Greenville,' so infuriated were the Seople at the evidence in the case and oyner's defiant demeanor on the stand. Both of the negroes were almost paralyzed with fear when taken from Oreenville, and on their arrival here also they were badly scared, not knowing- where they were or what their strange' journey meant. Not till this morning did they -know even the name or the city they were in. A Cutting Affair. At a negro base ball game in East Raleigh late yesterday afternoon a bad cutting affair took place. Two young nerfro men Condor Hand and Bad (iardner got into a hght. An other negro, William Brown, rushed in (he says to part them), and received two terrible cuts from a knife in the hands of IGardner. Neither of the principals In the fight was hurt.

The new rules and regulations of the penitentiary, adopted by the di rectors, puts that institution complete ly in control of the Executive Board and the Board of Directors. The Su perintendent is now little more than a sort of head clerk, whose duty' is principally that of making reports of the conduct of the prison and farms. Capt .Day is not at all pleased with the rules and declares he will not abide by them. The State Board of Examiners met here yesterday and adopted a course of study for the colored normal schools. This morning they adjourned to meet again at Chapel 11 ill on Wednesday, May 31st, during the University com mencement, to prepare examination papers for life certificates to public school teachers. The examination for life certificates will be held the second Monday in July. .

By Telegraph to the Morning 8tar. Raleigh,, N. C., May 20. A special to the News and Observer from Green ville, N. C, says: . j The ease against the citizens Of Greenville, before United States Com missioner Ormond, that started yester day morning, dragged on1 until the middle of this afternoon before the testimony for the prosecution was all in. Assistant District Attorney Spears arrived this morning to help engineer the cases. When the government rested its case counsel for . the defence stated they had testimony to offer. 'The Commissioner announced that the defence must finish its side- to-day or he would hold the case until mid night. Counsel stated that it was im possible to introduce all" the evidence for the defence to-day land that such decision by the commissioner was an injustice. The Assistant District At torney recognized this injustice and as he could not be here next week the case was postponed to June 22nd. I 1. Eftforr tr vans For any kind of GOOD SHOES Call on us.

Kobbe's Expedition Up the Rio Grande. Dispersed Insurgents and Occupied ' the Town of San Lois Natives -- Friendly Admiral Dewey. , By Cable to the Horning Star. - Manila, May 20 General Gregorio del Pilar, commander of the insurgent forces in front ot General Lawton's diyision ; Lieutenant CJolonel Alberto Barretto, judge advocate; Major Zal cita, of Aguinaldo's stafF, and Seuor Graciognzaga, a former member of tho Filipino cabinet the commissioners appointed to co-operate with Senors Florentino Torres, Pablo Cambo and Teodore Tanco, of Manila, for the pur pose of negotiating terms of peace with the American commissioners reached Manila by special train from Maloloa at "8:15 o'clock this morning. The party was met by Lieutenant Colonel Barry, adjutant general, imd conducted from the train to the lauuch Ca pi tan and taken t3 the 'palace at Galaoanan, and after breakfast were driven through the city to the Ayun tamiente. The party was closeted with General Otis for more than an hour, but the interview was decidedly unsatisfac tory, the commission having nothing definite to propose and being unem powered to negotiate terms. Asking an. Armistice. The commissioners brought a com munication direct from Aguinaldo, asking for an armistice pending the decision of the Filipino Congress as to what policy should be adopted. As before, General, Otis refused to enter tain the proposition. The commissioners, after leaving the city hall, accepted an invitation to 'visit the Oregon and the other vessels of the American fleet in the bay, and they were also granted per mission to see their families before re turning. Col. Kobbe's Expedition. Colonel Kobbe's expedition up the Bio Grande met with no resistance, ex cept at the outskirts of San Luis, where several hundred Filipinos were entrenched on the banks of the stream. The rebels retreated beyond Candaba and the gunboats steamed ahead, all the way training- their gatling guns upon the banks and dropping shells wherever uniforms appeared on the shore. The gunboats dispersed the in surgents before San Luis". After they, had passed, sharpshooters from trees across the river, a hundred yards dis tant, harassed the i Seventeenth in fantry, which was marching by fours along the narrow wooded road, from which the troops were unable to see the enemy. The members f one bat talion lay on their faces i'&fjhe road for a quarter of an hour trying to locate the riflemen and return their fire. Two Americans were wounded. . - The road wound close to the stream and was thickly settled. It was a pic turesque march,. Many groups of hun dreds of natives were clustered under the trees on top of the opposite bank, displaying white' shirts, towels, sheets or anything white, but most of them maintained a sullen silence. An old man. in a carriage, met the troops two miles outside of town. He said : ''I have lived in England, and I have told the people that the Americans are like the English and that they need not be afraid." Americans Welcomed. . Captain Grant, in command of the gunboats, landed before the troops ar rived and met with a "Porto Rican" welcome. The natives who had assem bled on the shore, crowded about the Americans with fulsome expressions of friendship, apparently half afraid that they would be massacred. .Captain Grant quickly distributed the men from the gunboat LaGuna de Bay to guard the town, and the na tives sent a messenger to tell the peo ple who. had taken refuge 'in the swamps to return. Hundreds of the natives thereupon returned timidly, a man with an improvised flag of truce flying from a bamboo pole preceding each pajrty. A Capauchin priest, one of the few the Filipinos had not imprisoned, was found at Candaba. He said it was useless to try to convince the natives that the Americans had not come to oppress them, as they believed their leaders, who had strongly impressed this belief upon them, and who have told stories of massacres, rapes and Filipino victories. j The walls of the town were pla carded with reports of a slaughter of Americans, hundreds of whom were said to have been taken prisoners. Natives Raid Rice Stores. As soon as Major Kobbe reached San Luiathe natives raided the insur- gents' rice stores. All dayastream of alf naked people emerged from the store houses, in the manner of ants, rushing to their homes with bags of rice on their heads. ! On Thursday night a body of rebels returned to San Luis and burned a part of the town. ! ' Lieutenant Cunningham, with a sig nal corps party, engaged in running a telegraph line, was camped near the place. Major KobbeJ sent the army gunboat Cavadonga there and found the party in the town, f The Bio Grande, sinc Major Kobbe started, has been the highway for ex odus of the natives, and to-day there is a continuous procession of thatched cascoes, with white flags, drifting down the river and containing whole fami lies, of twenty to thirty persons, with their household goods and animals on board. Thousands of these boats have passed the army gunboats. The Nebraska regiment marched from San Fernando to Calumpit today for a 30 days rest. The regiment num bers about 300 weather-beaten veterans. Two of the companies are mere squads, and their battered canteens and shiny clothes show unmistakable marks of rough campaigning. 'But the soldiers are nappy. Several of them dropped by the way from heat, but when they boarded the special train' at Calumpit bound for Manila they yelled like school boys, and the other troops went to their stations and cheered hesrtily. ; ' . The Olympia Homeward Bound. Manila, May 20. The cruiser Olympia, with Admiral Dewey on hoard, left here on her homeward journey to the United States' at A o'clock this afternoon. As she steamed away,- the Oregon, Baltimore and Concord fired an Admiral's salute. At the first shot the band on flagship's after-deck played a lively air and her white-clad sailors crowded the decks and gave a tremendous cheer. As the Olympia passed th Oregon, the crew of the battleship gave nine cheers for the Olympians, who re sponded by throwing their caps so high that dozens of them were left bobbing in the wake of the cruiser. Then followed the noisiest half-hour known in this harbor since the battle which linked its name with that of Dewey. .Tho din of guns ana brass bands echoed through the srnoke; a fleet of steam launches shrieked their whistles, the musicians of the Balti more played "HomeSweet Home,' her flags . signaled "Good Bye, and those of the Oregon said "Pleasant Vovaee." The merchant vessels in these waters , dipped their flags, the ladies on the decks of the vessels of the fleet waved handkerchiefs, and the fjreat black British cruiser Powerful, : which lay the furtherest out, saluted the Olympia, Thelatter's band then played "God Save the Queen," and to this the crew of the Powerful respond ed with hearty cheers for the Olympia. The last musio heard from Admiral Dewey's ship was "Auld Lang Syne," while the euns from the forts at- Ca- yite and from the Monterey, on guard' off Paranaque. too far-to be audible. puffed white clouds of smoke. ; Last Word of Farewell. - The Olympia was disappearing past Corregidor island, when a battery be fore the walled city spoke Manila's last word of farewell.- Admiral Dewey sat on the deck of the Olympia and received the adieus of his friends during the most cf the day. The launch of Major General Otis was the first to arrive alongside the cruiser, at 7 o'clock this morning, and afterwards the admiral landed and called upon the major general and .the United States Philippine Commis . sioners. On it being said that the people wanted Admiral Deiwey to ; go home by the way of San Francisco and across the continent, ' the Admiral re plied. "If I was twenty years younger and had political ambitions, I would not miss that chance." Speaking of the situation, Admiral Dewey said: "I belie-fre we are near tbeend, The insurgents are fast going to piecesl The sendingof a third com -mission shows that they means busi ness." - . j Captain Walker, of the Concord, the last of the commanders in. battle here, w-ent to the admiral and said : "Don't leave me behind." So he was relieved and goes home on the Olympia. Filipino Commissioners. The Filipino commissioners called on Major General Otis Ithis afternoon and arranged to meet the members of the American commission on Monday, when they expect their colleagues will have arrived. The chairman and secretary of their commission have been chosen. j "I cured my wife of quarreling about wanting her own way in every thing." "How?' '! let her have it." An Excellent Combination.
