News and Observer: At the Agricultural and Mechanical Col lege here a machine is being con structed which will plav an im portant part in cotton mills. It is the invention of Mr. Wetmore, a lawyer of Fa3retteville.' When a thread breaks now in a spinning mill the entire "frame stops This invention will stop only the spindle which has the broken thread, the others continuing at work. A transformation is in deed being wrought in Nash square. The improvements, com menced several weeks ago in a modest way, have been continued and extended until it now looks as if the square will be made, what it ought to be, one of the most beautiful spots jn the city. It is costing the city some money, bnt the investment is a good one. A like amount should be spent on this park every year. Asheville Citizen: An old ne- George xienrv, wlio lives a mile below Hot Springs at the Lime Kiln, showed unusual pres- i i t i euce oi minu the otner eveniasr. Sitting in the doorway of his home he heard the sound of fall ing rocks and upon going out found a rock on the railroad track weighing several tons. It had slipped off the side of the moun tain. The evening west bound passenger train was due, so Uncle ijreorge sent his son running up towards the depot to stop it while he himself ran about a mile in the opposite direction to flag auy train which might be coming up from Paint Rock. The slide occurred at a very dangerous part of the road and it would have been dif ficult for an engineer to have seen the obstacle in time to stop his train. Durham Sun: S. M.

In getting out some mules, Mr. Pope's son, Charles, was painful ly burned about bis feet and legs. The fire was discovered about 9 o'clock, and there is little doubt but what it was of incendiary origin. About one year ago an other barn was burned in the same neighborhood by an incendiary. Both of these look very much like the work' of the same party; If the guilty wretch is caught, he should be dealt with severely. Smallpox has made its appear- ance m Uharlotte acraiu. jmi.
