Naval Cadet 80rt because he did not know nothing Thos. L. Jenkins, of North Carolina, and thereupon Dr. Grissom departed. He was arrested and taken before the Working Public Roads in Mecklenburg County. A citizen of the dounty hands us t!e following interesting article : On the 18th of last Npvembe the convicts, under the efficient manage ment of Superintendent Hilton, and operated by Manager Sossamon, aided by his corps' of watchful, polite guard, with a working force of about sixty hands, came to the Lawyer's road, lo cating their quarters at a quarry near C. H. Wolfe's residence. It wa thought a very unfortunate time of year to undertake work on this roadr as it is generally more than a foot deep in mud during the winter ; but the elements favored the work, and today, February 22d, we bid the con vict forces good-bye, standing beside the best macadamized road this side of the Mason and Dixon line. During all these four months of midwinter the hands only lost two days on account of bad weather. For the satisfaction of tax payers, I will say that under the present improved method of manage ment that is of keeping the convicts in tents beside their work that fully as much, if not more, work- is accom plished to the .hand than could be done by free labor in the same length of time. And other things come in to add to tjie success of the work the experiences of the managers, use of improved machinery, together with the hearty co-operation of ftke citizens in the neighborhood where" the work was done, in furnishing -jck, giving right of way to straighten all crooks out of the road before the rock was put on it. The good wishes of the people who travel this road to Char lotte follow the county's forces with the hope that they may succeed as well on the next road they work on, there by making glad other sections of our county. The grades of this road are so gradual that I verily believe that with a good supple horse you could pass over the first four or five miles next to Charlotte without the use of holding-back straps. I am ofter asked, "Are you glad they are gone?" Now, for the information of those to whose premises they may locate near,. I will say that during all their stayr here I never missed a thing, or was disturbed in any way by their pres ence ; but on the contrary our neigh borhood has been helped considerably by several hundred dollars of the county's money being divided among NORTH CAROLINA COAL.

RAILROAD DISASTER. Six People Killed and Fifteen Injured Cars Piled on Top of One Another. At Bay View Station, about nine miles from Buffalo, N.

The sections came to gether with such force that the for ward sleeper, the Salina, telescoped for coinage m, . . 1" A m I the rear coach ot the standing section, killing six people and injuring fifteen others.

Raliegh Correspondent Wilmington Messenger The meeiting of the directors of the insane asylum yesterday and today was full of gopd results.

He has proved to be a very useful man, .and by his good management the, per capi ta expenses per day have been reduced" from 12c. to a fraction over 7c. That is a fine showing. It applies to both' patients and employes. The board adopted some very im portant regulations. One of thes re quires the superintendent to state in . his annual report the number of time? in which mechanical restraint upon prisoners has been used, and also the cause therefor, and the duration of such restraint. Another is that all ' puchases of supplies shal be subject to the approval of the executive commit- tee. This is in the interest of econo my, and will prevent any possible charge of favoritism to any particular merchant or dealer. MOBQ ANTON ASYLUM. From the Statesvllle Landmark.
