Two generals who have won great victories for Great Britain in South Africa, have long taken uncompromising ground on the subject of liquor in the armies.

Just before Christmas Eugene Penny, a young farmer of Wake county, left his wife and four children and went away with Miss Chamblee, a young lady school teacher of the neighbor hood. Before going away Penny sold a part of his land and took the money. Last week the cou ple returned and each went to their homes Penny to his wife and children and Miss Chamblee to her parents. The young wo man says that she and Penny took a trip through Mexico and California, and she was very much distressed to learn that the gossips had talked about her going away with a married man. She said Mr. Penny treated her like a lady; that she wanted to see the world and he showed it to her. Penny has given out no statement. Statesville Land mark. They Deserve No Sympathy. One or two towns in the State are being sued by persons who were arrested, fined or impris oned, as the case may be, for re sisting the compulsory vaccina tion ordinances. Such people deserve neither damages nor sympathy, and if the truth could be known, it would develop that they made trouble for no other purpose than to work the mu nicipalities for damages. It does not require the aid of law to compel a good citizen to take every precaution possible to pre vent the spread of disease, and others should be forced to do it, and upon refusal,' deserve no better treatment than any other man whp wilfully and knowingly breaks the law. The multiplicity of damage suits, in most casos for trivial causes, is becoming a nuisance in the courts. Dur ham Herald. Better Than 16 to 1. The Record had no notion of getting our neighbors into a controversy over a question of grammar when it spoke of "Rev. Jones," etc. The point that struck our young ministerial friend in Ohio was that the peo ple out there spoke of a preacher just as the generality of negroes do in the South, and he was amused at it. He said nothing about grammar, and he is a graduate of two or three col leges. The Record said nothing about it, but there are a half dozen papers arguing the matter as red hot as if it was a great political issue, while the Char lotte Observer is yelling enough and "cussin' out-' this paper for ever breathing the subject. How ever, the time is hotter employed in arguing the matter than in talking about 16 to 1, and we can prove it by the Observer. Greensboro Record. Suggestive Names.

Then the negro White could find a congenial color at least in Wilkes county with Spencer Blackburn at Ink, and if not there, then at Hanging Dog in Chorokee The revenue "doodleis" would find Corn in Caldwell, a name to their fancy, and the entire outfit of Republican politicians might mobilize at Peanut in Onslow county, if the county could stand them, while all the Democrats, j great aud small, meeting at Big I Lick in Stanly will procood to j ! knock out the whole black and tan push in August. Wilson ' News. ' HIS SUFFERINGS CEASE. Mr. Henry Lefler Dies After Suffering W ith Blood Tolson for Some Time Leaves a Wife and Seven Children. For several days it was known that death must soon come to Mr. Henry Lefier, who lived out at the Bala cotton mill, for his condition was past the place where aid can be given. Twelve days before he was taken to his bed. His foot pained him and son blood poison sot in. It is thought that a small brass tack in the heel of his shoe was the cause of the trouble. Four days before his death he had reached hia 52nd birthday. He leaves a wife and seven chil dren five sons and two daughters. Of this number three sons and one daughter are mar ried. Mr. Lefier was for four years employed as superintendent of the chain gang and afterwards had the position a short while again. About three years ago he moved out to the Bala cotton mill. The remains were interred at Rocky Ridge Saturday after noon at 3 o'clock. The funeral will be proached by Rev. J T Nelson. Concord Negroes Going to the Coal Mines.

He was shot in old Kentucky, where tbey make the mountain dew, and mothers feed their babies on hot revolver stow; where you wake up in the morn ing shot full of bullet holes, and 2nd your solo companions are disembodied souls. He was shot in old Kentucky, where the aim is always true, and the principle amusement is shooting people through, where the doctors use as medicine for all human ills, a dose or two of bullets instead of giving oills. He was shot in old Kentucky, where the "feuds" grow on the trees, and the but lets from the rifles buzz through the air like bees; where the instruments they play on when they give a dance or hop, are l Heir musical revolvers and they "call off" with a pop. Orange (va.) uoserver. Singular Incident. At Mt. Vernon Springs a few days ago a man came near end ing his existence in a poculiar manner. He was cleaning out a spring, which is walled with granite, and after dipping the water out, he crawled in to se cure a razor and a pocket knife, which had been dropped into the spring by a guest. The opening was barely large enough to ad mit his body, and when he at tempted to back out he found himself imprisoned, head down ward. The water began to rise, and realizing his danger he called loudly for help. Several persons came to his assistance. but wore unable to extricate him until after ho had become uncon scious. After working with him for somo time he was rosus citated. Greensboro Corres pondence to Charlotte Observer Mr Jordan's Close Call.

He attempted to board a moving train aud losing his footing was struck and thrown on tho track from which he was jerked by the yard con ductor, Mr. Glasgow, just as the wheels were ready to crush him. It was a fearfully narrow escape and a sore banging up but it is hoped he will soon bo at his post again. Fruit Crop Prospect. J Van Lindloy, perhaps the best authority in the State on such things, says that up to the present time the prospects for an abundant fruit crop this year are better than for many years past. Ordinarily peach, pear and plum trees are in full bloom by the middle of this month. Now thoro is barely a sign of swelling bud anywhere. Greensboro Telegram. Great Grand-mother Spoctaclcs. In line with the consideration of the historic "Black Boys of Cabarrus," Mr. C R White has shown us a pair of spectacles worn by his great grand mother, the wife of William White, Sr., who was a member of that heroic party. The spectacles are a curiosity. The glasses are rather smaller than those now in vogue but there is enough metal in those steel frames with their sliding temples to make a goodly number of the steel frames of today. There are great eye holes in the temples to take a chord that our grand mothers always used to extend around tho back of the head to keep them from dropping off. The weight caused this and gave rise to the fashion of relieving the nose by laying the spectacles just back of the forehead when not in immediate use. Real Estate Deals in the County. Mr T.

The Gold Hill Mining Business at Gold Hill Receives a Shock by a Number of Persons Taking Out i ttBChment Papers for Debts The Hands Not Paid Since the First of January. Numbers will probably be prepared to hear that attach ment papers have been taken out against tho Unlou Copper Mining Co. and the Gold Hill Mining Co. Numbers of persons are numbered among the ones who have accounts and are join ing in the effort to collect their debts. On Thursday night several gentlemen were here and took out attachment papers and Sheriff Peck left today (Friday) for Gold Hill where he serves the papers and will seize the property on the Cabarrus side. Most of the stock and machinery used is on this side of the line. Those who were here Thursday night and took out attachment papers were Chas. A Smith who has been running a store there for the company, J HSwaim the master mechanic, and Messrs. C M and Jno. Harris. As will be seen in the article below some Salisbury companies started the movement. The gentlemen here Thursday night stated that Sheriff Monroe had already been to Gold Hill and had taken charge of the ma terials in Rowan. The following appears in the Charlotte Observer; "It was learned from Salis bury last night that the Salis bury Supply Company and the Salisbury Hardware and Furni ture Company yestorday took out attachments against the Union Copper Mining Company and Gold Hill Mining Company, of Rowan county, for debt due them for supplies, furnished the mines. Several employes of the mines were in Salisbury yester day looking after claims due them for services rendered. One of the principal employes of the Union Copper Mining Company was in Charlotte yesterday and gave out information which pre pared the Observer for what it learned last night. It is stated that these companies are as much as two months behind with their pay rolls and owe debts to the amount of $75,000 or $100, 000. Mr. Walter George Newman is president of both companies and has been operating on a very large scale and spending money with a lavish hand. In addition to his mining interests he has invested in a sanitorium and a newspaper in Salisbury, A part of the property of one of these companies is in Cabar rus, and creditors were on the southbound train of the South em Railway last night, getting off at Concord, where they will sue out attachments to-day." ailyofl6th. To Fill the Pulpit at the First Presbr. terian Church. Rev. J K Thompson, who has recently been preaching in Texas, will preach at the First Presbyterian church tomorrow morning and tomorrow night.

J., dispatch of the 14th says: Prof. Charles Young, of the University astronomical depart ment, announced today that preparations are now being made by him to observe the total eclipse of the sun, which will take place on May 28. The in struments necessary for the work are in course of construc tion. Wadcsboro, N. C, has beon selected as the place where tho best observations can be made. A party of Princeton profes sors, under the direction of Prof. Young, will leave here for that point two weeks prior to the date of the eclipse. The work undertaken will be mainly spectroscopic, including particu larly a determination, both visual and photographic, of the position of the corona line. Several sets of photographs of the eclipse will be taken. Mrs. W S Sapp has gone to Graham, N, C. on a visit. I K B LAW'S TESTIMONY North Carolina's Capital and Labor Harmonize -Children Going out of Factories. The sub-committee of the United States Industrial commis sion which closed its work in Charlotte Thursday and left for Atlanta Thursday night drew out much interesting testimony. Industrial conditions were found to be quite satisfactory in the Carolinas. Mr. R B Lacy, State Labor Commissioner, gave a report so interesting that we append it herewith copied from the Ob server. "Mr. Lacy said that there are no negroes in the factories in this State; the mill that is being built in Concord to experiment with colored labor not having yet been finished. There are 33,757 employes in factories in this State, 14,638 men, 15,811 women, 8,308 children (1,679 girls and 1,629 boys). The compari. son between the relative num bers in 1896 was significant, and a healthy sign of a better condi tion of affairs. In 1896 there were in round numbers 6,000 men, 10,000 women and 6,800 children employed in tho fac tories. Now without any law or unpleasant agitation the number of children employed has fallen to only 3,303, a reduction of 50 per cent., while the men have in creased over 100 per cent, and the women over 50 per cent. Tho owners and managers of mills in the South have relatives and childhood friends in the factories, and there is more sympathy between employer and employe in the South than there is in the North, said Mr. Lacy. He said he had frequently at tended barbecues given by mills to employes and that they met as one large family. A numbor of the help coming from farms where they worked from sun to sun, do not look upon tho length of the day as being excessively long. There had never been a strike in the cotton mills that he had heard of and he attributed it to the reason above mentioned. In his opinion North Carolina was very much to be congratu lated for both the owners and employes, and the evident good feeling and absence of friction between them. At a groat many of the mills the employers had either built, or materially as sisted in the building of school houses and churches and took an active part in the Sunday schools and encouraged the day schools He spoke especially of one of the largest factories where no child under 12 years of age was al lowed and those over that ago bad to sign a book to show that they could write. From his blanks as commissioner he said that as near as he could calculate 16 or 17 per cent, of the adults and about 28 or 30 per cent, of the children could not read and write. He favored a compulsory educational law. In answer to questions con cermng organized labor, Mr, Lacy said there are ten different organizations, and that there is little or no organization among factory help, this being one of tho finest tributes possible to the employers. He thought compul sory arbitration impracticable, because on account of the fourteenth amendment to the constitution it would be impos siblo to force tho employe to work agains1; his wishes, and therefore it lacked mutuality He doubted whether the men would be willing for the change when they understood it. To Have Ckargo of the Bala Mill Store. Mr. Ed Freeze, who for a week or two has had charge of the Cannon & Fetzer Co. store at the Bala mill will soon return to his position hero in the store.

Que oeM ckM" CABBAGE MAGGOT AND PEA LOLSE How to Detect Them The Bcmedy, the Prevention Tobacco Good for Some thing.' There seems to bo an unusual amount of damage this spring by the cabbage maggot, the young form of a small, gray, hairy fly Anthomyia brassica). The same insect injures turnips and collards. Tho damago is first usually noticed in the field by young plants turning yellow or lead color. A swelling is generally found in the stem and within this or furthor down will be found the very small maggot, usually less than I inch long. The damage begins in the seed bed, but later there are several successive generations of the fly, which attack the crops in the field. But wh$n half , grown the plants do not suffer much, being able to repair the damage. A good remedy is the tobacco decoction, made by boiling for one hour one pound of tobacco stems or leaves in 3 gallons of water. Use hot as a Ispray. This must be done before the plants are injured, as when they wilt and turn yellow they are ruined. Injured plants should be pulled out and the maggots crushed. Rotation of crops and making seed bed in a new place each year is a very good preventive. As the maggots when full grown descend into the earth about J inch to undergo transformation to tho winged state, frequent stirring the soil closo to tho plants will do much good. It is useless to attempt to de stroy this or any other insect by treating the soil with kainit or any similar substance. These may, however, be desirable as manures. For tho first timo withm the memory of man the common garden pea was in some places seriously damaged by a small green plant louse. Whilo a similar visitation is. not likely to occur this year, truckers and gardeners should watch for it. As soon as tho first insect is seen spray plants with tobacco decoction or a dilute solution of fish oil soap 1 lb. to 5 or 6 gal lons, or dust the plants with freshly water- slaked, powderly lime. Repeat as often as neces sary. The undersigned desired living specimens of this insect for experimenting. GERALD A1CUARTHY, State Entomologist. Raleigh, N. C.
