Hen's a chance for invent ors to secure immortality and much sil ver. Oi k national tendency tocxaggcration was iK'rhups over-slated, hut certainly in a picturescpie way, in a li tter sent by an hasten! man in Colorado to his brother: This is indeed a great country J every humid is a town, every lowu is a city. every farm a ranch, every barnyard a corral, every mound n mountain and every man a liar." I'OSTMASTI.K-I'.I-IXIJIAI. Y.AMAKI:l has adopteil I 'resident Cleveland's views re garding the activity of olliccholdcrs in politics. He is sending out a letter invit- ng the attention of postmasters to the act that their course in regard to politics is clearly laid down in section -ISO of the postal regulations. This section gives the full text ol President Cleveland's fa mous order to officeholders, issued in I KM, forbidding undue participation in Hilitieal management, and enjoining upon officials the unobtrusive pcrl'orm- iiiee of their duties. TliXAS is coining up. She is expending about $.'!, M 10,01 10 annually on her pub lic schools, and half a million more on the Slate university, agricultural college and schools for the deaf and dumb and blind. The Stale has a school popula tion of some ball a million, about one fourth colored. Normal schools lor both while and colored pupils arc supported by tile State. The lllair bill was not needed there, surely. F.niTOH Cruris in llarm's "F.asv Chair" for May, siicaking of the fault mud by u certain New lingluinl senator r not printing his sieceli, which, by the way, occupied scores of pages in tin Congressional Record, says that "It is he very function of the nevspnicr to se lect mid summarize and make readable.

Tim oft-rcientcd remark that a coil ol inch roK.' is a lietlcr and more reliable leviec for escaoiug from a buriiiiiL' build- ng than seven eights of the patented lire escapes" in use, was practically illus trated in New York recently. A tene ment house, provided with the usual lire eseaK;s," took fire. Panic seicd the occupants, and there would have Ik'cii a tragedy, I'or the 11 nines stood be- ween llieui and the "cscnjics," had not me of the tenants, foreseeing just such an emergency, provided himself with a stout roH.'. The women and children were lowered by it to the street, and the men and hoys slid down it easily nml ipiiekly, and everybody wna saved. Wlll-s tlie republican party has fully made up its mind whether to have nny surplus in the Tinted Stales treasury not locked up in silver purchased at a rate above its commercial value in the mar kets of the world it will coaler a favor upon the business public by allowing the fact to Ik; generally known. An accurntc knowledge ot the conditions under which the national finances arc to lie mnnaged by the silver men will tend at least to make business less uncertain, if it docs not encourage linancicrs or licgct trust in either the wisdom or honesty of the ruling parly. Kki'KKskntativk Haunhs, of Georgia, who enjoys the distinction of being; the fattest man in congress, tips the scales at 2!ir pounds, or just 2(10 pounds heavier than John Henry McCarthy, the thinnest legislator in the house.

Two men sat in the big room in t lie court house this morning. They were Deputy United States Marshal Hugeuc Kckcl, of Greensboro, mid n deputy clerk of the federal court. When the clock in the lielfry struck the hour ol ten the for mer rose to his feet and formally ojiened the federal court. That is all the business that body has done to-day, and not liclbre to-morrow will the court begin the transaction o business. Judge Dick will not travel on Sunday. The docket for the term is a lit tie larger than ordinary, although the cases arc mostly trivial ones. The court will be in session for Irom ten to fifteen days. Among some of the more interesting cases which will lie tried at this term is lie against James Fuller, of Swain county. Fuller is but IN years old, ami in December, INK", he had a Iriend who was a prisoner in the Swain county jail, His name was Wahlrop ami with the assistance of a couple of files he managed to make his ese-aiic. When the authori ties begun easting their cyesaboutforthe jicrsoii who so kindly loaned him his means of csciiih.- tbcv fell on Fuller, and the hitler will have an opportunity toex plain his innocence or Ik- in n position to do sonic tiling himself. Richard Camion will lie called upon ti answer to a charge of iicrjurv. He hails from Mitchell county, mid when Kiehard Mel'iuirc was arrested there some time ago charged with retailing licpior with out a license Cannon was a witness. He swore to having purchased a half pint ol liquor from the defendant nml that he paid him ten cents for it. That was at the first trial, hut McGuirc had two ami when Cannon was called to testily in the second lie swore that he never had pur chased liipior ol McCtiiirc, and that he hail testified falsely at the first hearing. Then the prosecution proved that he had b:iught the liipior, and hence the charge. Two cases will be tried at the present term where the defendants arc charged with re-using revenue stamps. F.iglity- uinc arc charged with violating the inter nal revenue law, and forty-four who were under bond to apK'ar at the last .crm and pay costs in ns many different eases are to show some good excuse at this which will excuse them lor not a IK'aring.
