To every census enumerator was sent a "trial" sheet to test his efficiency.

In another column are Dublish- ed the cards of Messrs. Hovle and McDonald of their can didacy for the Darnoeratic nomi nation for' the. Senate. When this Senatorial district was form ed (in 1901) it was agreed, or rather understood, that Moore and Chatham should, have the two Senators one term and Scot land and Richmond one term, alternating, and this has hereto fore been done. Lee. county was created by the Legislature of 1907 and now Lee and Moore are both claiming the Senator, here tofore allotted to Moore, but this controversy does not affect Chatham's right to have her senator. If Lee and Moore can not settle this between them selves, then it will have to be settled by the other counties in the senatorial convention. . -The Record recantly pub lished an item, copied from an other paper, about cattle ticks being found on rabbits.

A resolution was adopted set ting apart the third Sunday in next November for taking up a collection in every church in the Presbytery for , the Southern Presbyterian College and Conser vatory of Music at Red Springs. The sum hoped to be raised then is $10,000, and it could : not be raised- for a better purpose, for that institution is greatly in need of that amount and it is doing so grand a work that it richly deserves all that it can get Resolutions were also adopted condemning the use of Sunday mails and Sunday newspapers, and also the employment of labor on Sundays, and urging the more strict observance of the Lord's day. - . Before adjournment the fol lowing resolutions were adopt ed: "Whereas the Presbytery of Fayetteville has been so cordially and abundantly entertained by the Church and the good people of Pittsboro, therefore be it re solved, that the X unbounded thanks of "Presbytery are here by heartily tendered to our genial hosts, also to the S.

As to food, the weka is omnivor ous, eating everything from a pea rifle cartridsre to the remains of one of his own ollspring. I remem ber an instance of this when our dog unfortunately killed a young bird which was too small to-eat. The parents made a decent show of grief over their loss.; and then. De ing quite sure that the little one was dead, nroceeded to eat up ita x still warm remains. In camp wekas are useful as scavengers, but they are incorrigible thieve trying to take . away everything at all white or glittering, and, as ihey are able to move a weight of two or three tounds, it may be well imaginea that a careful lookout has to be kept, The glance of mingled triumph and contempt which a . weka gives over his shoulder as he ..walks off with your pipe is inimitable, and his wholft attitude would make a most iausrhable picture if well drawn.
