George Wylde Arrested Charged With ItiKamj. Greensboro is t-tirivd up over the arrest of a young nun who see.ned to le a leader in ihe church, on a charge ot bigam v. ' His name is Geo. A. Wylde, and he has lievn in the employment of Mr. Tin. Woodr-dTe, a contractor and builder. Before Mr. WmhI rotfe moved to Greensboro Wylde worked for hiru in Alliemarle coun ty, Va., but left him and went to England where lie van married and lived several years. "While away in England his wife- became the moth er of six children. He left tbeni there arid came lack to America to work for Mr. Wood roffe. In Greensboro i he was con sideretl a high-toned Chfittan voting man and often letl in prayer services at the churches and Y. M. C. A. Not long since he married a Miss Moimie, daughter of Mr. W. M. Monroe, of Greenslioro. Thev had gone on a visit to Kinstnn when Mr. M oiirue learned that his daugh ter's husKand bad a wife and six children iu England. He. at once had Wylde arrested in Kiiiston and put on the train fjr Greenslioro. At II iilsboro Wylde got out of the trin window aud skiped with his hand culls on. However he went to a house in the country and asked for a hammer with which to liberate himself from the shackh s, but the sharp farmer made him come iu and sit down to hn-akfast. The farmer sent for an officer and had him ar rested. Wvlde was carried on to at Greensliorii and at a preliminary hearing was Iniuud over to the next term of Court. FOREIGN KKS MASSACHKD. Paris. Dec. 2. A dispatch has lieen received here from Pekin which confirms the statement that well armed Lands have devastated a whole district in the northern part of China, and that they have pil laged nd burned the Belgian mis sion station. .In addition to the destruction of the mission stations at Tayou and Snchi"vherc over a hundred converted natives were massacred hy the bloodthirsty bands, the station at Gehol was sucked aud burned."' The priest in charge of the mis sion, a Belgian by birth, was killed by tho mob and several other Chris tians were also massacred. The natives had heretofore lieen 3uiet. and there was no 6i"gri in the istrict that a revolt was meditated. The local authorities thereiore had taken tio steps to suppress any out break, and! when the natives rose they met with no material opposi tion, for the officials were practi cally helpless. It may here be s'ated that the local Governor in his report of the occurrence to the Pekin government does not place the blame upon the natives of the province, but attaches the resjousi bility for the crimes to bands of Mongolian robliers. who, he says, made a raid through the district. Whatever the truth may lie the general government has taken steps to prevent any futher outrage on foreigners or native Christians, and the troops available were, immedi ately upon the receipt f inforina ti on regarding the trouble, despatch ed to the scene of the disturbance. Advantage! of Good Itoad. Land speculators, realizing the import nce of good road facilities, seldom place a tract upon, the mar ket until they have improve! the approaches and driveways. Thi 16 one of tha reasons why the boom in California was so 'successful. Es pecial attention was paid to the streets in a.M towns laid out. . They were made attractive. and in nearly every instanre sidewalks ofretncnt were put in place before the first purchaser was invited to iusjiect the premises. j There is another reason, ho-wever, why the roads should be improved. Mr. Isaac B. Pottor, in an article to an engineering magazine, holds that one-half the l.HX'00 horses and mules on the tarms of the Unit ed State could do the hauling of the farm produce if even the pres ent country roads were placed iu good repair.' With a reduction of only an eighth of the number of draught animals, the saving each day would amount to about 14,t00 tons of hav and 75.oM busluds of i grain, which, regarded as to inonev value, would amount to f3'X.'VO a day. or j 1 1 4,m K,(h.w) a year. I f the value of the savings in animals is added, a total of $234,XO.OvO re sults J : Considered from this etandpoint, it may readily be shown that in the course of a few years the roads can j lie paid for in the saving they would I make. In localities where roads have leen ma'ulamized the value of property has increased about l'H) per cent. Add this increase to the saving effected and therj results a handsome net profit. How locali ties can continue to exist with few ar.d badly kept roads, when the advantages of the reverse are to plainly evident, is more than cn le intelligently answered. Erchawjc. XO. 22.
