The day Is Dot far distant when the
Irlrbl case teat couai&s so much of
the time of our Superior Courts, and
entail such heavy expense on the
counties of the State, will b? disposed
of la recorders' courts. These courts
have already beenestabllahed In a
number of counties, and, so far as we
have noticed, give universal satisfac
tion. Union county criminal court is
in session in Monroe this week, and,
owing to the good work of the rec
order's court of that county, there
were only 40 cases on the docket. At
the January term of criminal court
here there were more than 150 cases
for trial, and the probability - is!
that at least half of thera are still on
the docket. Uuder present conditions
the docket never will be cleared. Lt
us have a recorder's court and this
Btate of affairs will soon be remedied."

St. Paul, Minn., Feb. 1 For being
scared until she turned baldheaded.
Tillie Ominsky, a factory girl, was
awarded $2,000 by a jury in the Cir
cuit Court here yesterday.
Tillie was employed, a little more
than a year ago, at a machine which
elevated paper boxes to the fiUior

wheels and she was drawn tight
against the machine.
Physicians and surgeons testified
that fright had so affected her nerv

SOMETHING I BELIEVE
Correspondence of the M. & I.
I believe God made the heaven.
and the earth, and that he rules hL
creation. 1 believe God is every
where, and that heaven is were God
i3. . Hence, heaven is every where,
and not, as some would have you be
lieve, only in the blue arch overhang
ing the earth. Heaven is' love per
fected eternal bliss, and those who
are in perfect love with God and inm
are in heaven even in the flesh. We
believe that those who enjoy no pari
of heaven here need expect no heaven
in the great hereafter.
We believe God is goodness person-
Interesting Pin Pic tares K. G. Scales,
Tbe Texan Who Mad and Ut $10,
000,000 la Three Ntnlba on Cotton.
The plunee of E. G. Scales, the intrepid
Southerner, in the recent bull campaign on
cottoa market, is graphically given in a
lat; Usae of The Pablie Lsdjer of Phila
delphia and i an interesting and thrilling
srory. It is as follows:
"When James R. Keene threw up his
hands, made composition with his credi
itors, saying, 44I will some day pay my
debts in full, and will never again speculate
In an agricultural product," the common
report was that he reckoned his losses at
between $6,000,000 and f 7,000,000. So aiso
when young- Leiter acknowledged that
more wheat grew and was in farmers' bins
and the elevators than he with all his fa
ther's millions could gain the ownership
of. and confessing defeat, turned his back
on the wheat pit, his losses were variously
estimated, the more conservative judge
ment being that at lea3t $8,000,000 good
I money were needed to meet them. The
spectacular and comet-like approach of Al
fred Sully to the speculative cotton mar
ket a few years ago was followed by route
and defeat, which cost him perhaps 9,-
000,000 -it may have been a little more, or
a little less. . " ..
mere would seem to be, therefore in
these figures the hint of some secret and
yet fundamental between $0,000,000 and
$8,000,000 as the amount of money needed
to teach a speculator in agricultural pro
ducts that in the United States he cannot
uu,y monopoly. fossiDIy it was some
unacknowledged recognition of this law
wnicu persuaded James A. Patten to flp-
from the wheat pits of Chicago to Colora
do as soon as ue could reckon his gains
in the neighbordood of 16.000,000.
Of course, these figures are in reality nt
more than symbols of the popular esti
mates of the gains or losses of the iart
speculators in one or another of American
crops. For no great speculator ever con
I . . - . ! . .
.t:-5 m me exact or even approximate,
amount of his losses, and it is almost axi
omatic that great 'winners refrain from re
porting the amount of their winnings.
SCALES AND HIS PLUNGE.
na yet there aoes seem to be a limit
fixed by some fundamental law beyond
which individual or even pool speculation
m agricultural proaucts witn intent to
create something like a corner connot eo,
The successful speculator stops just short
of this limit, content to turn what he has
bought into cash.
"Very likely the report of making 10,
000,000 or 15,000,000, has had his violent,
interpid attack upon those who sell cot

vu uracttra oi aiossoi vs,uvu,uoo is ex
plained by this popular estimate that the
tide turns when a speculator stands to
lose someS,f"00, 000, o one but Mr. Scales
knows whether profits which he reckoned

realized iu cash, at one time- reached as
great a sum a 8,(x0,000 or $10,000,000 or
not. Yet there must have shriveled away
paper profits in a few days which, could
they have been realized in cash, would haee

damned. They need not die iu order

I believe there is' a disposition on
the part of all to greatly minimize
the responsibility they owe to God
and their fellows. The sad feature of
: this is, the churches are following the
world in its mad race after the dollar.
I believe it would be profitable for the
present day church (I mean its teach
ers) to read the Book of Hosea, and
there learn what became of Ephraim
and his followers. And some who
use language not understood by the
commonality of the church goers
miht with profit read the 14lh chap
ter of First Corinthians. I believe
the present day education is driving
people from God. 1 believe Solomon
was right when he said: "Train un
a child in the way he should en. ami !
when he is old he will not depart from j
it." I ask, are we training ourchil-1
dren to love the preached word, espe- j
daily in our towns and cities, where !
we see the children leaving the church
after Sunday school is over for the '
streets, or home, rarely ever seeing !
-any of them Inside the church during i
the preaching hour. Nor do we be- !
lieve they are getting the good from !
the Suuday school they ought and i
should, too much form and not !
. enough etudy of the lessons; loo few j
grasp the truths intended to be incul
cated by the authors.
these are some of the things 1 be
lieve. At another time I may tell
you of something I do not believe.
"Little Brown Creek."
or in its vicinity, firm-footed, the
man or silence, for he made no boasts or
comments, and the individual, almost uni
que mauner in whicn he began and led his
campaign of aJvance, instantly fixed at
tention npon him He became one of the
notorieties, with the possibility that at a
future day he might gain that celebrity, in
which lie imbeded the chance of fame.
"Mr. Patten's appearence in New York
earlier in the fall caused excitement, but
none of that spectacular effect andillusiou
of mystery which were characteristic of
Mr. Scales' appeareuce. Mr. Patten was
known as one of the few men of recent
times, whose judgment was not impaired
by success, so that he knew the exact mo
ment when the market would receive the
full amount of the millions of bushels of
' wheat .which he had bought, and approxi
mately at the price which his purchases
had fixed for it.
"James R Keene bought a tragic repu
tation as a most successful bear operator
upon the Pacific coast, and intensified the
curiosity in his personality by wearing a
white overcoat that identified him as Com
modore Gerry's fur cap established his
personality. And then he stood like Ho
ratius at the bridge one entire day in the
stock market, staying the mid-summer
panic of IS". Mr. Keene did n t venture
into speculation along stupendous lines in
an agricultural product until he had lived
in New York 15 years.
SULLY LIKENED TO SCALES.
"Possibly Mr. Su.ly's guerrilla-like ad
vent into the cotton market a few years
ago may be best likened in the sudden
ness with which his personality and pur
pose dazzled New York for a time with
the recent appearence of Mr. Scales.
''These, however, are mere incidental
considerations, snperficial aspects of some
of the individuals nd some of their pur
poses, whose careers they typify in recent
American attempts practically to corner
some one of the gi-eater American agricul
tural products. Something of much great
er importance than the mere monetary
consideration of Mr. Scales and the others
or any view of the personal eccentricies or
peculiarities lies behind these immediate
aspects. Mr. Scales in his recent career is
one of the inevitable phenomena associated
with opportunitiy to enter a market where
prices and to some extent values are fixed
by competitive bidding, the commodity be
ing and American agricultural product.
PAPER PROFITS 110,000, POO.
"So there began in the fall the move
ment, call-it gamblingorspeculation, based
chiefly upon the opinion of those who were
inthespeculative syndicate that thenoi mal
market and movement of cotton,combined
will itself result iu prices far beyond those
theunusually small crop would of any year
except that, of the brief Sully campaign.
They began to buy, and it may be that the
Patten millions in this pool wereconsider
ably in excess of the resources of Mr. Scales,
but Mr. Scales knew cotton as Mr. Patten
knew wheat, and experience and informa
tion are often reckoned as good capital as
is cash
"Apparently the overloaded banks of
the Sou tl , carrying millions of bales for
the syndicate, reached their limit of accom
modation before the top-notch price of cot
ton was attained. Apparently 16, or it
may be 15 cents a pound, instead of ao.rep-
resents the normal equilibrium between
supply and demand. At one time Mr.
Scales was carrvine on his siwnbtivp
oack possibly half the entire cotton crop
of last year, and, considering the enormity
it the purchases, the magnitude of the
oanking accomodation, especially in the
South, and the range of prices, the great
est ever known since we began to glow
cotton sxeoptiug in civil war days, we find
good and suiricient evidence to justify the
statement that at one time Mr. S!,..aiA
:ould have written his profits upon paper
:it as much as $10,000,000.
"Now if it be true, as is generally believ
ed to be the case, that while Mr. Rain
figures his paper losses at any where bet wee a
5,000,000 and S,000,000,that is to say, that
at this day his cotton at present prices
would be marketed at some $5,000,00 or
6,000,0110 less than would ha ve been the case
had he been able to market it at the higher
price, nevertheless he can easily reckon a
conversion of paper outfits into hard cash
of from $1,500,000 to 2, 000, 000, than what
good business man is there to deny the pro
position that iu aspsculati ve boom am-pat-
er speculator can afford a id even must ex
pect to ue. paper profits wither, not. n-
gretfully.if hecau contemplate and ultimate
market in cold cash of from ! .500 (MMl tr
$2,000,000, representiua- the not n.uir.a

James A. Loekhart, of VVadesboro, fi
ed a petition against the location of a
depot by the Winston-Salem South
bound Railway Company outside of
the : corporate limits of Ansonville
while it owns a depUsite in Anson

gible site.
The proioeed location it is declared
'w.iiu! w me people of the

to give reasonable and just public ser
vice, lacilities and convenience to the
prospective patrons of the company
that it will cause loss, inconvenience
and discomfort to a great majority of
the people of Ansonville and the sur
rounding territory, that when the
railref'-was acquiring its rights of

that ti.. ,pot would be located tit a

The Corporation Commission is pe
titioned to order the location of the
road at; a point that will best serve
