Never bin our people bad the advan
tage ol snub trick riding on tie bicycle
as was nivon here on tho (trectg today
(Saturday) by Messrs. Shields and Phil
lips, of Boston,
A large orowd witnessed the perfor
mances. "Willio" performed several of
tho most diUluoult feats on his ma
ebine, especially the one where be stood
his wheel on two offioe stools. Alter
putting himself in different kinds of
positions while the wheel stood still on
these two stools, he rode off the stools
to the ground. On oocount of some be
repeated the act.
"Kube," the hayseed oyolist, well
imitated the beginner, lifting his wheel
about the smooth places on the ground,
and fulling very often. They gave their
performances in front of iiayvault's
store. To close the program "ltube"
rode down the flight ot stairs of the
Castor building, having come down at a
terrifio speed, but landed safe in the
street.
Mr. Shields has the honor ol having
ridden down the Capitol steps in Wash
ington. Both of these gentlemen seem
to be very courteous and aooommodat
ing, and "Rube" is loaded with wit.
Note or riinnks.
I wish to thank my many friends
and neighbors for the many kind
nesses shown my husband in his
late illness and to war 's me after
his death.

A Holt Hlnffnlnr Oecarreooe.
Just eighteen years ago Mrs. D
B MorriBon, of this place, lost her
engagement ring a heavy 18
karat, plain gold ring. On the
8th of November last, while clean
ing the dirt away from near the
new well on their lot, Mr. Frank
Goodson picked up this same
ring. It was as bright as ever.
This is a most singular occur
rence, not only because it was
found after being lost for eighteen
years, bnt on- account of the fact
that the 8ih of November is the
anniversary of their marriage.
The 8th was a happy day for
Mrs. Morrison, sure her anni
versary day, hor day to again
look upon the emblem that sealed
her love of 23 years ago and it
was also election day.

Written for The Standard,
On Wednesday evening a nuta
lofyouug people were entor
taincd at the home of Mr. and
Mrs. Jamr-s 0 Gibson a fancy
dress party given to their daugh
ter Jennie. The invitations sail
7.30, and the hostess was certainly
gratified by tho well-bred punctu
ality of her youthful guests. By
8 o'clock the rooms were filled
with a goodly number ot ladies,
fair and gallant knights, kings and
queens, emperors and empressei,
outlaws and gypsies. From the
stately Cleopatra to the frisky
little gypsy maiden, all were at
tired in costumes of real beauty
which were singularly appropriate
to the charaotor represented. One
could easily imagine it a scene
from "Tha House Boat on the
Styx" to see bold Robin Hood
roaming unabashed through
groups of royalty while his faith
ful follower, Friar Luck, hob
nobbed with Julivs Crosar the
noble Roman's royal robes con
trasting finely with the saintly
Friar's monkish garb. Marie
Stuait in her queenly dross did
not disdain a sooial gossip with
the lovely young Quakeress, Dolly
Madison, who had not yet attained
to the dignity of the White House.
Queen Elizabeth was recognized
at a glance, so perfeot was the
costume of that royal lady, and
her reign was also admirably
shown off y the gallant Sir Wal
ter Raleigh, whose loyal cape was
ready for his liege's service.
Martha Washington wae dignified
and elegant in dress as befits the
lady of the stately General in his
State costume. The Lady Row
ena was beautifully attired and
glowing with the triumph won by
her faithful knight, Ivanhoe, who
was too badly disabled, it is pre
sumed, to appear at any rate he
was absent. The Empress Jo
sephine in court train and crowned
with the Emperor's flowers vio
lets received the guests, assisted
by the brave Napoleon in costume
which must have been handed
down from the Emperor's own
wardrobe.
The Japanese Countess and Gyp
sy Queen had evidently just ar
rived from Japan and the King
dom of the Gypsies and brought
their best clothos with them. The
lovely Jewess, Rebeeca, smiled
kindly on her rival. KatrinaVan
Tassel might have captured even
the headless horseman himself
while Pocahontas looked worthy
of the war-like Powhatan. The
gallant naval hero, John Paul
Jones, discrtssed with one of
Roosevelt's Rough Riders the
merits of early and late American
warfare. Brave Robert Bruce
showed what the world has gained
by a lesson learned from a little
spider, while the modern gentle
man proyed that we need not, af
ter all, be ashamed of our own
times.

Seeing the Situation.
The following are among the
many extracts from deliberate ob
servations from a Northern stand
point that size up the situation
about right ;
"The negroes of the South look
to the Federal powers for a re
dress of their grievances. The
Federal power emancipated them,
and clothed them with the rights
of equal citizenship; and the negro
has since failed to comprehend
any other form of allegiance ex
cept that which he owes to the
Federal government. He doesn't
understand his State citizenship,
and the duties that appertain to
that condition.
"Had the negroes of the South
divided on political issues, State
and Federal, as the whites were
divided, aooording to their under
standing of such issues, instead ot
blindly throwing their weight in
fayor of the Republican party,
there would have been none of
the race difficulties which disturb
the politics oi that section ot the
couutry. But the negroes have
nover fathomed the nature of the
dutit's of citizenship. As a matter
of gratitude they have given their
support, right or wrong, to the
party to which they belive they
owe their emancipation. The un
fortunate result has been that the
color lino has been made the line
of division between politioal par
tios. This result has been a con
tin niDg misfortune for the people
of both the North and the South.
Philadelphia Record.
"It was a mistake of the recon
struction period following the war
to have put the ballot in the
hands of the recently emancipated
slaves, and with it the ruling
power the former masters. An
educational qualification, as was
then advocated by this paper,
would have saved the South from
the saturnalia ot corrupt carpet
bag and ignorant negro domina
tion which followed. And if the
SoutLern States are now resorting
to this intelligence qualification,
and to its partial and fraudulent
administration, as a means of de
priving the negroes of their politi
oal rights, it seems nevertheless to
be the most hopeful remedy for
the evils growing out of the in
veterate fued of the races." St.

As a matter of interest to farmers
who till the soil along wa'.er courses
and are snt juct to occasional cvor

experience of Mr. Thomas W Reece,
of Boonvillo, Yadkin county, N. C,
a portion of whose lands was
flooded by the groat freshet a few
months since. Mr. Reeca had sev
eral tenants and his suggestion to
them was to pull away the
lower shuck of the corn left
s'anding while that upon the
ground was "hung up" and similary
treated. Oao of his tenants carried
out his euggention on 50 acres of
flooded corn and out of 700 bushels
did not lose over 50. Of the others
who did not take this precaution al
most the entire crop was lost or
damaged. The aboye faols were
told us by a gentleman who was
recently in Boonville and we print
