Moles and Slnilrer OrtlUrntrn.
Char otte business uien hud better
be on tie lookout as to the $5 and
$10 bills they take in these dajs.
it seems that there is an organ
is jd gang cf counterfeiters working
in the countrj towns around Cbar
lotle. So far they bate confined
tbeir woik for the mrst part to np.
per Booth Carolina, tot daj by day
they appear to bo (retting nearer this
city.
For the past Uo or three weeks ai
number of $5 and $10 treasury
t otes have been in circulation just
across the line. These who hare
seen them say tbat tbey are almost
a perfect reproduction of the old
treasury note. The color is yery
defective but even the signature of
"J Fount Tillman, register of th
treasury," indicates the work of
skilled artist. This money firs
made its appearance in Atlanta
about too months ago. An officer of
the secret service go; on the trail of
the counterfeiters and they left At
lanta for parts unknown . The next
time this money was detected was in
Grfenwood, 8. O. The merchants
at tbat place took in a nnmber of
spurious bills. The handlers of it
learned mat tne Greenwood peep e
were on to tbeir game and tbey again
mysteriously disappeared.
Tbey next turned np at Green
ville, 8. 0., where they passed seyera
hundicd dollars of the $5 and $10
note" and a counterfeit $1 was also
place 1 in circulation, it is supposed
by these same people.
Tbe latter js a reproduction of the
list s.lver certificate issued. Io
many teepee's it is a poor connterfeit
but can be eaBily passed on unsus-
p ctinj; people. The genuine bill
has a half cld woman lying aluost
at f j 1 1 length with her lift hand
upraise.'. At tier Duck a boy is
stinding. The city of Washington
lies in tbe back ground and the
Washington monnment is very

The counterfeit bill is in most
respects live this but one grave
blunder tbe counterfeiters made was
in leaving tbe monument entirely
out. In taking in tbis d. nomination
of paper money it will he well for
our Business men to look for the
monument.
The defects of the $5 and $10
notes are much less noticable. In
fact no one would suspect for one
mouitnt tbat these bills were other
than Uncle Sam's issue. A close in
spection will reveal tbe fact that
tbe little red and white strings that
are to be always found in the genu
ine article are conspicuous by their
absence, Tbe lettering also Is a give

party of 313 emigrants wbo left 6a

Waites have only enough money to
enable them to reach the United
States.
A'l the adult members of tbe
party described the condition of
those whom they left in Liberia as
being most pitiable. Tbey say tbe
land promised them by the Libe-
nan agents in tbe United States
turned out to be absolutely no good.
Tbey claim there is no gold or dia

more than half the Labrador's party

that the climate of the Republic of

Ktrt.l Printing Mesr.
Complaint is filed in tbe case of

Bros., of Winston, ex-State printers.
It sets forth tbat tbey have beeo
paid by the State $10,000 in excess
of the amount really due for work.
The chaige is a -very serious one.
The former State printers S'.ew.
art Bros., of Winston, have, it is es
timated, about $6,000 worth of paper
otlonging to the S'.a'e.
The State wants the paper, but the
Stewarts, it seems, do not propose to
let it hava it just at present. At
aDyrate Auditor Ayer sent Mr. Guy
V Barnes, who has been giyen all
tbe Sta'ers job p-inting, to Winston,
to get this paper, lie crime back
without if but brought a lett r
from thu Stewarts saying that their
attorney was out of town and there
fore they coulan't comply with the
auditor's request.
It will be remembered that the
auditor is paid an extra $30 a montb
to look after the printing. It will
also be remembered that Stewurt
still claims to be printer aud r.heie-

paper. Free Preau.

Hears an able Lerlnre atld a Captivating-

Mr. Editob : Kainbling latt
evening, it was my pleasure to drop
in at North Carolina College. I
found the chapel crowded, aud was
told tbat Frof. Ludwig would bc
ture before tne Atbaneum Club of
tbe college- By the kindness of the
students I got a seat and remained
to hear tbe Professor. His subject
was, "B -oki, When to Read, How to
Read and What to Head." lie sur
passed himself, aud if be did no'
inspire tbe boys witb a desire to
store their minds with useful knowl
edge by close attentive reading, L
was not bis fault.
Dismissing his bearers with the
remark, "read whenever you wint
to, but be sure that you want to"
we ail repaired to, the Phila fts bian
Hall, where Miss Gertrude Sieber,
the accomplished teacher of elocu
tion in Mont An.oeua Female Semi
nary, of Mt. Pleasant, N. C, recited
"Franz' Song," to tbe delight aud
great satisfaction of us all. Tbe
breathless silt-nce, which was almost
painful because unusual, bespoke
bow well the rendition was enjoyed
and appreciated. Being heartily
applauded, she gave us something to
1 ugh about in "That O.d Sweet
heart of Mine." To be frank, tbe
writer bas beard quite a number uf
pereorj s recite, but Miss Sieber sur
passes them all. Dr. Miller is to be
congratulated in securing so accom
plished an instructor in elocution,
aid if she can bat impart some of
her gifts to ber pupils, parents will

The Plare to Kell Cotton.
Under the above caption tbe Char
lotte News comments as follows on
tbe tri.ffic and trade anion the cot
ton buyers of Concord and Char
lotte :
"Something must be done to con
vince ibe farmers tbat tbis is the
place to sell tbeir cotton.
'There is oaly one way to do it
and tbat is to pay tbem as much for
it here as they get elsewhere.
''Joncord buyers can't afford to
pay more for cotton than Charlotte
buyers.
"Concord mills catt afford fo pay
more for cottou than Charlotte mer
chants. 'If Charlotte buyers can't afford
to piy what Concord merchants pay,
Charlotte merchants can, and the
sooner tbey go at it tne better tor
them, and for Charlotte."
Nothing bas to be done to con
vince tbe farmers that Concord is
the place to sell their cotton that
fact is well established ; all the
farmers know it. Ajd what has
conyinced the farmers of this fact is
tbat our cotton buyers pay the high
est prioes.
Concord buyers do pay more for
cotton than Charlotte buyers, and
have for many years.
Tbe Concord cotton mills consume
all tbe cotton they can bay and tbey
pay tbe farmer what they would pay
for freight charges if tbey bought
cotton from other markets.
Concord merchants can pay high
prices for ootton and then sell goods
as oheap as the cheapest tbey com
pete with the State.
If Charlotte buyers can't afford to
pay wbat Concord buyers do for cot
ton it is but natural and right for
the farmers to know it and reap
whatever the advantages may be.
All tbe farmers are invited to
bring tbeir cotton heie. No one
will treat them better than the Con
cord people.
To Concord or burst."
Aou to Concord he came. A
gentleman in conversation with a
Standard reporter said tbat a
Mecklenburg county farmer had his
cotton ginned in Charlotte, and be
fore leaving that city, had a placard
painted, and placed on the side of
bis wagon, on which were these
words : "To Concord or Burst."
Tbe man wbo brings his cotton
to tbis market dosen't "burst," and
'his particular one will tell von so.

followers, to the number of seyeral
hundred, arming themselves witb
guns, revolvers, knives, exes and
clubs, marched to Cayandieh's hotel,
where several hundred of their eneN
miee are celebrating py day. The
Cavandish men ascertained that
their foes were marchiDg on them
and arming themselves hurriedly,
awaited their ariival. After a de
monstrative march the Culacabbage
contingent arrived and immediately
stormed the saloon. Then a b!oodv
battle ensued. The men fought
like demons, the shooting was fast
and furious, and axe, knives, clubs,
and otber weapons were need with
deadly effect. The battle lusted al
most an hour, when the Cu'scibage
was routed, leaving .'-ei- wounded
behind.
After tbe routed rioters had re
turned to their headquarters, tbe
Cavandish gang armed themselves
and marched to their ene'Di a' ren
dezvous, where a battle still bloodier
tqan the first ensued. The police
force and the constables of the sur
rounding region were called to the
scene, but were unable to crp3 with
the rioting crowd which continued
hostilities until this morning.

Reflections of a Bachelor.
An engaged girl may ft el awfully

eat many onions till after she ges
married.
After a girl has once deeided that

she will never forgivo bim for not
asking her.
No man ever reipecttd a girl
much till he made her lose her
temper.
When a rich girl's hair looks like
streaked molasses candy, it is said to
be of the color of spun gold.
