Local editors are blamed for a great many things they can't help, such as nsing partiality in mentions mg visitors; giving news about some folks and leaving others, and so on. He prints all such items that he can find. Some people inform him of such things and others do not. An editor should not be expected to know the names and residences of all arrivals, and it is frequently tbe case that he is nnable to ascertain them. If you will make it a point to tell us these things we will glad ly mention them. THEY WERE WATER FAIRIES A Splendid Entertainment and the Pineville Academy Snpremely Coin, leal. Home talent was in it and home talent never put np a more enjoys able entertainment than that of Monday night, when the "Water Fairers" in all their beauty and Concord charms and loveliness went upon the stage. As a splended means of rounding np tne packed measure of entertainment and pleasure of the evening, Prof. John Smithdeal, of Pineville Academy, with a crowd of Pineville pupils gave an exhibition in recitations, essays, songs and chrrnses. For the very cold evening the crowd was surprisingly large much larger than was expected by the most sanguine. At 8 o'clock the curtain rose upon the beanlif nl '-Water Fairies" im personated by the following of our sweet Concord ladies : Misses Lily Patterson, Agnes Moss, Addie Pat terson, Annie Hoover, Bertha Quantz, Nellie Fisher, Daisy 'Lentz, Addie and Fannie Strieker, Bell and Pauline Means, Hattie and Sal- lie Castor and Mrs. Chas. Cook. It was a beautiful cantata, representing in song the water nymphs, all of whom appeared in nile green gowns. The decorations were very tastety and pnt all in good effect Con cord's little mocking bird, Miss Ad die Patterson, was queen and she sustained her reputation. The solos by Miss Lily Patterson and Miss Agnes Moss were charmingly ren dered. The accompaniament was played by Mrs. Jas. P Cook. This ended.the Paneville Academy began its exhibition. This But premely rediculous outlay was in tended to represent the customs of 40 years ago. It represented, to be sure. Mr. John Smithdeal, as the school master in charge, played his part in royal 40 year old etyle, Hes a trump, and lots of 'em. His fan tastic touch, by finger or voice, put laughs on to all, and this was the end in view. The following were tbe pupils of Pineville Academy whom he selecttd to represent the merits and splendid character of the institution over which he presides: Misses Eva Chnrch, Claude Fisher, Ida Blume, Pearl Brown, Ora Hooyer, ChaBsie Brown, Sadie and Grace Fisher, Belle Means, 2nla Patterson, Mary Sherer, Archey and Jimmie Brown, Julius and Archey Fisher and Olin Hooyer. This ex hibition was supremely comical and received with enthusiasm by all. The Standard can not find space to particnlarize,enoHgh to say that each part was played by an artist. The handsome sum of nearly $40 was realized. Hews From Beefcwell. News reached the city today, as follows: Yesterday Mr. Tom Roth rock, with Misses Nora.

THE PUBLIC PRINTING BOiE. It Will Be Taken from I lie LonfHt Bidder Basis and Disposed of as Patronage -Goldsboro's Charter At tacked Favorable Action as to tbe State Banks- Raleigh, Jan. 12 The General Assembly today did nothing except of a local nature. A bill, which will pass, was introduced to take the publi c pointing away from bidders, and, it is said, give it out to Butler's organ here as patronage Today s session of the benate was characterized by unusual interest. A resolution to recall the bill sent to the House repealing the If w letting the public printing to the lowest bidder was defeated. It provoked a heated debate. The first attack on city charters was made by Mr. Grant, of Wayne, in a bill to amend the chater of the city of Goldesboro. Resolutions were adopted in structing Senators and Represents tives in Congress to endeavor to se cure the repeal of the 10 per cent tax on State banks, and certain ob jectionable features of the internal revenue laws. A heated debate arose over the proposition to elect a President pro em. This procedure was ar gued by the Democrats to be un constitutional and without precedent. The constitution provides for the election of a President pro tem. in the absence of the Lieutenant Gov ernor or when he is acting Gov. ernor. The proposition was de feated, FIETH EAY. The Senate did not meet until 3 o'clock this afternoon. The House session began at 10 o'clock, French being in tne chair in the absence of Speaker Walser, A resolution was offered declaring the seats from Robeson county, now held by Payne and Carlyle, and seating R M Nir ment and John P Smith. The prin cipal bills introduced were by WiN liams, of Craven, to provide an elec tion law ; by Smith, of Gates, to pro tect girls by inci easing the rge of consenlfrom 10 to 14, years; by Sterns, to require the State board of medical examiners to grant license to physicians regularly 'license in other States ; by Crawford, tt pro vide for working conyicts on ' he roads in McDowell ; by Learj, to amend the charter of Edenton. Four hours was devoted to a dis cussion of the Senate bill to lepeal he - act of the last Legislature awarding the public printing tthJ lowest bidder. The Democrats offered amendments, but the Fusions ista by a vote of 60 to 44 voted these down and the bill passed second reading. Land Transfers.

KORNER WRITES It was very cold Saturday night, I therefore remained at home with my wife and and baby this is ail now. my children having all mr ried and died and consequent ly left just three at the old vine and fig tree. I told my iangel not long since that I could not realize how old I'm get ting until I think of the grand children accumulating. It is a great pleasure to me to know that not a single one of them is de formed, but all a splendid specimen of human flesb. It is said mroy of them favor their grandpa. I was thinking Saturday night. As the winds whistled and blew one way and then blew another in quick succession, just so my thougnts they jumped one ay, then another.

Today plainest, commonest people, with everything painfully humble and insignicant behind, are etnving to be society letxtere, bon tons, bund-boxes and other things. Just where greatness cojics ia now, would be hard to as certian with tbe aid of all sciences. We are all great now greatness is our names. Years agu when we had women we saw them going to church with shoes hung across the arm. Near tbe church (there was always a con venient branch) they sat down, washed feet, donned stockings and shoes, marched up to the church, heard the sermon, worshipped God and went home and thought about arid talked about it. Today we have ladies we have almost done away with the good word woman they wear shoes all the time, carry slip pers wrapped up, retire to a priyate room, don them and then proceed with society.

Death ia in the land. Death comes sooner or later to any and all things.

The approach of death will bring people to their senses It is this ouly that will shake up the dry, poor bonea of a any. There re some systems cf moral ethics and some kinds of religious teach ings that men and women may per suade themselves are gocd enough to live by, but many of them,'when brought to the test, would hate aw fully to die by. To read the newspapers, as I have been doing, watching the drift of things, and seeing the many new or ganizations springing up here and theT, it is enough to make one feel hat the church has lost its charm. It seems that way, but it is not In the last number of the North Caro lina Christian ' Advocate Eev. R M Taylor has a very eensiole article on taking care of church members. He 83ys it is comparatively easy to Ee cure conversions and additions, but backsliding is the rule instead of the exception. De writes vigorously and sensibly. I know Mr. Taylor ; he's a good man and lots smarter than many preachers Korner knows. There are so many innovation; so many changes ; so much departing from tried aid established customs and truths. So many people think all that is necessary is to profess religion and all is well. It doesn't make any difference bow miserable a life he has lead and how many scars are on him, he's alright just so he has professed religion. This Mr Taylor, not in words, but in sub. stance says is where we mistake. It is then that he needs support,' needs henching,' needs encouragement, needs instruction needs every thing The women have started up a nagve ment 'for the .establishment of a school for- fallen women.

Father Doye has had made a large tent and the convicts will be taken to the country as Boon as spriag openr. A night guard will then be employed to go with the gang. The report that Herbert Smith, assistant manager of the force. would ie8i"gp. is without foundation. Mr. Smith has an excellent knew, ledge of repairing and building roads, and the Commissioners could ill afford to lose him. The force now consists of seven teen, smaller than for sometime, but will be considerably increased after court. Death ofa Tonnx Mother. The Standard hears of the death of Mrs. Emma Dor ton Boat, wife of Mr. Jack Bost of No.; 10. When we knew her first she was a pupil of ours at Sossamon's School house in 1835. She was then a most interest ing, studious little girl. She was one of the best we ever knew ar d her aim then, though but a girl, was to do right and do her duty. Just one year ago she married Mr Jack Bost. One week ago to them was born a little child. She became sick of a fever. She grew worse, weaker and weaker, until the tender thread of life of the young mother snapped and hei soul wended its way to heaven. The sympathy, we know, of the entire community goes out to the young husband and the bereaved family. . A Sunny South Item. "Where in thunder are you going with that stove and all those overt coats?"
