R. encamp meat at that place, status among other thing that, "the committee on instruction made its report, criticis ing the books on war history read in the schools in the South as ioao ourate, and suggesting some changes, particularly in those used In Southern schools." This is unintelligible. ''Books on war history read in the schools," if an inexplicable phrase to begin with. No such books are read in "schools" anywhere, we believe, and if there are such books, which are not histories, they must be beyond the reach of any changes suggested by the committee. If histories were meant, it would have been better to say so, bat as it is not apparent how the committee or the G. A. R could effect any changes in histories uied in the schools of the South, it is not easy to understand why it should have "suggested" any changes, or to whom the suggestion is directed. A committee we do not know whether it is the same one of the G. A. R. has been engaged lately in having a history to its liking writ ten by a historian of its choice, tinder contract, and the announce. ment was a few days ago that it had got what it wanted from him after some changes were made by its di rection. . Tha organization it represents should be content with this achiev ment, and should confine its loyal teal to the purpose oi having this loyal product used exclusively in the schools which it can control in its own section, lb ere la no use for such a "book of war history" in any of "the schools in the South" certainly, and it is very safe to say that it will never find a place in them.

Joe u little less ban powerful and with Reed behind tbe bat and the re mainder of hia support in the field, the game was beautiful, our boys '. making only two errors during the entire nine innings. Rowe, of Newton, pitched good bait for Stanly Creek, but had mis. erable support, making their side of t-be game uninteresting. Tbe score by innings resulted, as follows: Stanly Creek 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 00, Concord 0 0 5 1 1 2 3 0 012. The btanly (Jreek boys were a clever, gentlemanly set of boys and were delighted with their treatment while here. Daily of Sept. 2nd. m e Landed a Mharfc.

Concord is still on top, and it just took three littlh 'land-lubbers' to break the record here, for the season." letei i The Opening- Encouraging;. North Carolina College, at Mr, Pleasant, began its fall term Wed nesday. Sheriff Buchanau, who re turned from Mt. Pieasant Wednes day says that 48 students wore pres ent at the opening. This is the largest number present at the open ing for a number of years. Mo e students are expected. A oard from president Soberer says, ''There has neyer been a more encouraging beginning in the his tory of the college. We have en rolled tbe largejt number tbat has ever been enrolled on the first day of tbe session for many years. We are still expecting new arrivals." An enthusiastic student writes us as follows : "Tha session for 1897 98 at North Carolina Colli ge opened this morn- ing. it w s a pleasing signt to stand on the rock steps of this time honored institution, as tbe bell an nounced tbe opening hour, and see the students rome in. Quite a large number of tbe students who were present last year were ready to answer to the roll call, while here, there and all around new face were to be seen. Every hour during the day has seen students arriying and by tomorrow morning it is expeoted that the roll will very nearly reach tbe high water mark for opening day at this insti tution. Every indication points to a prosperous year. Let every young man who is undecided, conclude to come at once While accommoda tions are being rapidly taken, there is yet room for many more young men." Daily of Sept. 2nd. Jailed For mealing llldea. Last Sunday night three colored boys stole out a horse apiece and rode them to Liberty Hill church, a few miles beyond Olaremont.

Last S .turday eyening a difliou'ty occurred between Jim Murphy and Lester Conrad at the close of a sing ing at the Methodist church at Star on.

The Concord Team Holds Its Famous Heeerd. Hie Mcoro la lo S. Salisbury sent down her baseball team Thursday morning fully con fident that tbey would return with tbe laurels, but such was hot the Case. The Concord team was simply too muoh for them. Tbe gams opened at 3 o'clock i the presence of a large and interest ed crowd of spectators eager to wit ness the game, as it had been re ported that Salisbury would interest our boys more than any team with which they had crossed bats this year. 1 he Salisbury team is comp sr of the following gentlemanly young men and played as follows Baughan, p; Fei mater, o; Pool, s s, Henderson, lb; Busby, 2b; Milstead 3b; Rufiy, rf; Mictey, cf, Woodson If. Concord played as follows : Wed dington, p; Reed, r; Caldwell, a s: Van Pelt lb, Misenheimer. 2b; Fisher, 3b; Brumley, rf; Rogers, of; O.bson, If. The efforts of the Salisbury team to put up good ball were certainly appreciated by the full grand stand and other spectators, but intertet fell, when in the sixth inning tb Visitors made score. Baughan, Salisbury's swift pitcher, made a fine start but during tbe game succeeded in striking out only two men, while Billy Weddlngton. tbe pitcher for tbe home team, struck out 21 men out of 27. The score by innings was as fol lows : Salisbury 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 23. Concord 0 4013623 19. Mr. Y O Caldwell umpired tbe game and bis fair and impartial de cisions gave perfect satisfaction. Concord has played six games with opposing teams during the season, scoring 82 runs in the six games while tbe opposing teams have scored only 12, Concord in several cases not playing tbe last inning. Concord has not lost a game dur ing the season and bBS the reputa tion of being one among tbe best teams, if sot tbe best, in tbe State. Daily of Sept 3rd. Briefly Told. The Raleigh correspondent of the Richmond Diepatch Bays: "News of the shooting of Senator Pritcb ard's brother, Sheriff Pritchard, of Mitchell county, by tbe 19-year-old depperado, Garland, is interesting, Garland dared tbe sheriff to come after him. The boy's parents told Pritcbard where he was, and begged and entreated him to cap ture, but not to kill him. Pritch ard and a deputy found Garland in an orchard retreating. Both the sheriff and Garland fired at once, and the 44 calibre pistol bullet passed through each. Then there was another exchange of shots Pritcbard fell, but got up and shot again, while he held on to a fence. Then tbe deputy killed Garland. The physician said Pritcbard would die, but tbe plucky fellow said no. He will be out in ten days.
