Leslie's Weekly." Silout SufTW-ers. In many human bosoms an ocean of trouble is rolling and tossing Its billows in fiercest fury, forcing its spray out at timt through the eye-lids in brin.ist tears; but so bravely ami v silenty and so unmurmur iiu'.ly is it borne that no one dreams of the trials that are surging aud roaring in tho hid ueni.3pths within. That beau tu l; 1 calm of fortitude, which ni;i:;t!as the brow in su-;h lovely seict.ty, and that soft mild light of cheerfulness, falling like sun beams from heaven and playing vor the features in such a glim mering sheen of beauteous lus tre, would seem to whisper that all is peace and rest within, the grief-reefed caves of feeling, lint, not so. We can't dive through th shining surface and see tile rock on the bottom, aga; Ht which the waters strike and foam and surge and seethe in all their terrible fury. No, that is hid, and it is given unto the heart alone to know and feel its throes and its agonies. Many y, smiling face beams over a heart whose brightest dream is fcroken and whose sunlight has jrtie ut forever, even as a bril lini ky sometimes droops its iridescent beams of radiance ssbove a dark and sobbing and Moaning sea.

A special to the Charlotte Ob server from Bessemer City, of tho 31st, says: "Last evening Mr. and Mrs. S J Durham gave an elegant 6 o'clock dinner to the bridal couples. Mr. and Mrs. J H Wilkins and Mr. and Mrs. H N Garrison. The brides carried showel bouquets of bride's roses. The gentlemen wore boutonieresl,ousei It will probably remain of bridesmaid's roses and aspar agus ferns. The dining room was one of rare loveliness, deco rated with ferns and cut flowers The beauty of the table could not be surpassed. The dinner was elegantly served in twelve cours- es. Those wno ainea wiin win brides were Miss Pearl Dizon and Messrs. C M Cook, Jr., T A Wilkins and Dr. G A Wilkins. An elegant reception was af terwards held, the invited guests being Mr. and Mrs. C E Whitney, Mr. and Mrs. J W Craton, Mr. and Mrs. E A Tucker, Dr. and Mrs. W S Hay, Dr. and Mrs. D A Garrison, Messrs. Joe Kear ney, Ben Willeford, J A Jenkins, Rev. J R Erwin and Col. C L Law ton. Mr. and Mrs. Durham enter tained so charmingly that ere the guests were aware of it the time of departure had arrived and all went away feeling that this was an evening long to be remember ed by the social circle of Besse mer City. Mrs. D A Garrison, who has been sick for some time, has gone to her father, Mr. D B Col- trane s in Concord, where she will stay for throe or four weeks. The people of Bessemer are delighted to know that Capt. Ry der has made this place a flag station for trains Nos. 33 and 34 The people certainly appreciate the accommodation very much. Ho'g a Bad Negro The Truth-Index tells the story of a foolhardy negro, John Ful ton, who attempted to tane a ack of flour from Mr. Gus Granger, at the Mt. Vernon Mills on Wednesday, liranger knocked him down twice with a monkey wrench and he cut Granger on the hand with a razor -tt one stroke and cutoff a button on him at the second stroke. He was glad to escape after the sec ond stroke with the monkey wrench. Fulton went to Mocks ville and at the roller mill asked the fireman for machine oil to grease his cracked head. Learn ing that a Mr. Granger, father of the Salisbury man, was in the mill he took leave at once. He's a bad negro and it is most probable that he would have done up Mr. Granger but for the skilful application of the wrench. Hot Quite a Noneiilt The Charlotte Observer of the fit st says on the authority of Capt. Geo. F Bason that in the case called in the Observer "A Mental Anguish Suit" in Con cord this week, Judge Brown ordered a non suit. We do not know how Capt. Mason, was misled, but clerk of the court, Cook, tells us upon our inquiry that the young man got a ver dict for ten dollars. It seems a lesson to the company to be very careful and to the plairtiff that it is not best to go to law precipi tately. 1 1 Second Fire Takes the Buildltifr. The seven-story building of the William Wicke Company in New York had an explosion on Thursday which did great dam age and a panic occured among its 800 hands including, 350 wo men. All escaped, however, with but two injured Later fire broke out and destroyed the building. Three fire (horses came near be ing lost aud would have been but for overcoats loaned to throw over them when they were cut loose and let run out. And suppose it is true that very few white children are sent to the penitentiary, is it to the State's interest to make crimi nals out of the young negroes ) As long as we have the negro with up we will have to look out for him and do everything in our' power to make him a better citi zen A negro thief is no more desirable as a citizen than a while oue.

Peculiarly Nad Ending; tearet Hug' band and Six Children. News peculiarly sad comes to us from the home of Mr. John v Moose, of No. 8 township. Mrs. Moose, whose illness we noted some three weeks ago, is dead. Again she evaded the family no tice and when her absence was discovered Thursday about 11 o'clock and search was made her lifeless bodv was found in a snHno conveniently near the forever a secret whether she at tempted to get water and fell in or whether in a moment of men tal aberration she voluntarily extinguished the feeble spark of life yet remaining.' Her mind was not at normal poise at the time we mentioned some weeks ago, and it is most probable that disease was making its wasting ways on the brain. However it be, Mrs. Moose, was beautiful in person from girlhood and in Chri stian character was no less so. She was a good woman from youth up, and her memory will be cherished as a cnarm ior those about her and an inspira tion to all that is true, upright and lovely. She was about &d years oia. Her maiden name was Miss Mary E Walker. She leaves a husband and six living children, four 6ons and two daughters, viz: W F, G H, J W and A F Moose and Mrs. M G and Mrs. A C Lentz. The burial took place today (Friday) at 2 o'clock at Bear Creek German Reformed church, the funeral being conducted by her pastor, the Rev. Mr. Reidi cil. At The Capital. In the Senate Friday Senator Henderson offered a bill to in corporate the town of Landis, and Mr. Lindsay to authorize a committee to investigate the management of the Institution of the Deaf, Dumb and Blind. The vote on Henderson's bill for alimony in cases of divorce having been reconsidered was again presented. Mr. M O Sherrill was reelect ed as State Librarian by Senate and House. A bill was passed looking to the printing of 2,000 copies of the Confederate regimental his tories. A bill to establish the office of treasurer tor Surry county caused much discussion. A Republican was elected sheriff and it is re garded as rather political in in centive and many Democrats in Surry and in the Legislature do not indorse the movement. In the House several bills were offered for a fair election law. Mr. Bradsher offered a bill to regulate the employment of la bor. A bill to authorize the chair man of the Judiciary Committee to compel attendance of wit nesses and the production of papers in the matter of impeach ment of Judges Furches and Douglas. The bill to regulate legislative counsel passed its third reading. This bill requires paid agents to register as such that legislators may not be imposed upon by paid agents while operating un der the guise of disinterestedness for the public good. ' The work of the General Assembly was largely bills of local interest Wednesday. Mr, Henderson's bill for granting alimony to divorced wives was taken up and discussed and voted down by 20 to lb. The Senate passed the bill re Quiring every member of the Agricultural board to have a prac tical knowledge ot farming. In the House Mr. Morris, our representative, introduced a bill to establish a text-book commis sion. Mr. Wrisht. of Rowan, intro duced a bill to pension all con federate soldiers and widows of such soldiers, who have attained the age of 50 years, if not worth $500. Mr. Dees from Pamlico, the sitting member in the House, gained the victory over his com petitor, Mr. Crowe.l, Populist by a vote of 77 to 10. AT THE CAPITAL. Impeachment It III Offered Against Chlet Justice Furches and Judire Uouic'ass Mr. Henderson's Divorce Bill Reconsid ered. The General Assembly had a day Thursday frought with un usual interest. In the senate Henderson's alimony bill was re considered and is again before the senate for consideration. In the House impeachment cnarges were introduced and re ferred to Judiciary Committee and assigned from there to a subcommittee, againstChief Jus tice Furche's and Judge Douglass in the matter of issuing manda mus to force Treasurer orth to pay Theophilus White, Admiral of the Cruiser Lilly, which was expressly forbidden by the last general assembly. The initiative movement seems full of business and spirit. The sum paid White was$S&i.- 15. It is believed that the bill will come before the House next week. If passed the parties will be cited before the senate which will constitute the jury and a committee of the House will ap pear as prosecutors. Mr. Locke Craig, of Buncombe is tho author of the bill. In the Senate several bills were introduced for the relief of the insane. Mr. London read a memorial from the North Caroliua Divis ion U. D. C. asking for increased appropriations for the pensions of Confederate soldiers and lor the Soldiers Home. In the House Mr. Mason offer ed a bill making 10 hours a day's work and prohibiting the labor of children under 10 years old in the factories. Statistics of Lynching. For some years the Chicago Tribune has made a specialty of lynching statistics, and every January it gives a summary of that class of crime for the twelve month. The figures show that the victim of mob justice north or south is almost invariably, a black man. Of the 115 persons unlawfully executed in 1900, 107 wore negroes, and of the total number of lynching all but eight took place in the South. Louis iana and Mississippi led with 20 each; Georgia had 16; Florida 9; Alabama 8; Tennessee 7; Arkan sas and Virginia 6 each. Indiana, Kansas and Colorado are the northern States that indulged in lynch law last year. In Indiana 3 colorod men, one of them in nocent, were lynched; in Colo rado 2 colored men and 1 white man suffered the penalty, one of the colored men being tortured in the most fiendish manner. Kansas chose two white men as its victims. These instances serve to show thai latitude has little to do with the lynching spirit. Possibly there would be almost as many lynchings in the north as there are in the south if the north had as large a negro population. The occur rences in Indiana and Colorado admonish us at least to assume no superior virtue in that regard. The number in 1900 was consid erably below the average, but it was somewhat in excess of tho record for 1899, a fact which weakens the inference that lynching is on the decline. Min neapolis (Minn.) Times. Judge T. C. Fuller Very III. Judge T C Fuller, of the Uni ted States Court of Private Land Claims, continues exceedingly ill at the Buford Hotel, and his physicians stated last night that they entertained no hope of his recovery. The illness is the re sult of failing health during the past year. Judge Fuller came to Char lotte about the first of the year, and, excepting brief periods, has been here ever since that time. To all appearances his health was excellent. Late Saturday night he was seized with some thing like vertigo, but he did not apprehend that his condi tion was serious, though he at once consulted a physician.

At the meeting of the North Carolina Division U. C. V. at Raleigh on last Wednesday the committee made the following recommendatious which were adopted: "1. That the Legislature ap propriate $20,000 for the mainte nance of the Soldiers' Home, and $5,000 for needed new build ings and repairs; 2. That the pension tax be increased from 2k cents on real and personal prop erty and 10 cents on the poll to 5 cents on real and personal property and 15 cents ou tho poll; 3. That all honorably dis charged soldiers over seventy years of age, unable to support themselves and worth less than five hundred dollars, and all widows of Confederate, soldiers who were married to them in war time who are now C5 years old aud in needy circumstances, be put on the xension roll in tho fourth class; 4. That no further spocial pension legislation be on acted." Tho North Caroliua Division U. D. C, and also the Salisbury Chapter sent up memorials which were read before the body by Miss Bessie Henderson, of Salisbury, and recommended to be read before the General As sembly. The Voter an s took notice of the imperfection of the roster as it is and authorized tho following committee to take the necessary steps to correct it, Rev. Dr. E A Osborne, of Charlotte; Col. Paul B Means, of Concord; Dr. B F Dixon, of Raleigh; Maj. Graham Daves, of Newborn, and Dr. J William Jones, of Chapel Hill." At the night session the body was addressed by Gen. Julian S Carr. After tho meeting ad journed Mr. A B Stronach gave the veterans a reception at his home. Bad Case of Assault In No. 4. We are pained to learn that a young man from our community made an assault last Sunday evening about 4 o'clock on a young lady ia No. 4 township. With the energy of desperation she fought him and escaped not before receiving serious injury to herself. She has suffered se verely and may be a sufferer long from the effects. Warrants are out for the young man and we withhold his name. Hers will be known at the proper time if he is canght. It seems a griev ous case. The young woman says he began by trying to drug her which 6he declined. Then ho threatened to shoot her. She escaped from a fierce struggle to the nearest house, a negro family unable at first to tell her woo. Objection EiioiirIi.

"A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches," wrote Senator Sullivan, of Mississippi, to a farmer constituent of his, now residing in Kansas, who has a new scheme of getting some thing for nothing. He informed the Senator that he had named a son of his William V Sullivan. His first son, he said, had been named after a Galveston man, who had promptly sent him a chock for $100. He impressed the Senator that the second offspring had been named after the greatest man in the State of Mississippi, and that being the case, he should recei ve not less than $250. Therfore tho Senator sent the line quoted above. Washington Dispatch.' Pauper in Luck. An old man by the name of Wright, who was sent to the couuty poor house at Scottsboro, Ala., last July, because he was sick, and had no money and no relatives to care for him, had a stroke of good luck last week. He had been a soldier in the Un ion army, and had a claim for a pension that had been hanging fire for years. He had about abandoned all hope of ever get ting anything, when he received notification that his pension had been allowed with $4,000 back pay and $72 per month for the remainder of his life. He im mediately walked out of the poor house to a comfortable home. Anderson Intelligencer. A Cross-Tie On the Track. A special to the Charlotte Ob server from Mooresville under date of Jan. 31st says:. "Last Monday, just after the Mooresville-Winston train left Mocksville for Mooresville En gineer Parish discovered an ob struction on the track. He re versed his lever at once and thus avoided a serious wreck. A cross-tie had been placed across the track by some unprincipled miscreant. The engine ran upon it and was derailed, but by jack ing up and removing the tie the train was soon in motion." Rival for the Round Bale. We see from the Memphis Scimeter, of Jan. 22nd an inter esting article about a new patent cotton press that is said to be very valuable. The bale is made regulation size, 24 x 54, but the fibre is brought out in batting which is laid and pressed one at a time much like the round bale. It needs no compressing but is ready for the markets of the world. "Doctor. I shall never forget that to you I owe my life."

A very dainty pnniplilet has been I aued by the Division of Foods mid Their Accessories of the Paii-Ainerlcau Ex position ot Buffalo. The food work at the Fan-American comes under the general department of Horticulture, Forestry and Food Products, of which Mr. Frederic W. Taylor Is superintend ent. Mr. G. Edward Fuller, as assistant superintendent, has entire charge of the Division of Foods and Their Ac cessories, and be has prepared himself for unusual work In this line by spe cial travel and study such as no one else probably ever undertook with tin same object This pamphlet calls the attention of jobbers of teas, coffeoF and spices and all dealers In food prod ucts generally and their accessories to the Interesting, useful and educational work In their lines of business which Is going on for the' Pan-American Ex position of 190t. The assistant superintendent, Mr. Fuller, says: "In the far east there are foods and condiments of which we are almost utterly Ignorant here, and one of the alms of the food exhibit will I f to educate the people of the weRtern hemisphere to the cultivation of the products which flourish In the east. It will be my aim to show how simple and profitable It would be, for Instance, to grow In the West Indies what Is grown In the East Indies. The climate and soil conditions are remarkably similar, and the conditions are favor able. "The best proof obtainable or desira ble that the soli and the climate of the West Indies Is as favorable as that cf the East Indies for the production 1 spices Is already available. The prod ucts now received from the West In dies are not equaled by those from any other section of the world.

To show this Interesting collection to the best advantage an attractive con servatory has been provided, while a museum, as an annex to this, will con tain finished products as well as rare and curious articles te Illustrate a va riety of features under the bead of 'Foods and Their Accessories. "It Is a fact well known to experts In exhibition matters that a scattered display of special articles Ios?s force, while a condensed exhibit of a line of things pertaining to a specific subject becomes educational. Now, as the ob ject Is to Increase the production and promote the consumption of the things called for, much trouble and expense Is justified In making this collection nnique and unparalleled. "It Is Intended to make the exhibit of red peppers the finest and most ex tensive collection ever made, with the object of demonstrating by special ex hibit connected with the 'accessories of food' that Pan-America can pro duce all the red peppers consumed In Pan-America. It Is perhaps only known to experts that vast quantities of red peppers ore Imported from Europe, Asia and Africa every year because Pan-Americans ore not actively alive to their own Interest In this Important matter." 50,000 American Horses and .Mules fur the British Army.
