His wife scattered a handful of corn about on the ground. The crows flew all around aud high up In the air and peeped down at the little arralna of cojn on the grouud and wished that they could get them without being shot by the farmer. But after awhile the black crow thought that he would Dlav a good 1oka on the furtuer and get all the corn that ne wanted without getting hurt. "I'll go down there," he aald to him self, "and tell the farmer that I am one of the best crows that ever lived, FLEW STRAIGHT IN THE DIRECTION OF THE FABUEB. and that I am sorry that my brothers, sisters, cousins, aunts and uncles have been eatlug all ot his corn, and that I want to help him to keep them away. I'll tell him to give me his gun and go In to his house, and when the other crows come I will shoot them for him. Then when he goes away I shall hop about and eat all the corn I want and when he comes back to see bow I have made out I'll Just fly away and luugb at 14m." The black crow napped his wings and flew straight In the direction ot the farmer. Now, it happened that Farmer Brown did not know one crow from another. and be had no idea that the black crow was going to try to play a trick on him. But the farmer was a pretty smart old gentleman, and lt would have been a hard matter for anybody to fool him. When he saw the crow coming he did not wait to ask any questions, but aimed his gun jrlbt at the bird and blew him all to pieces. Moral. Be careful bow you try to play pranks on people. Chicago Trib une. Eight ltlen Drowned In Gold nine! Special to Charlotte Observer. Salisbury, Aug. 11. News reaches here to-night of the drowning of nine men eight of them negroes at the Barringer gold mine, Stanly county, this afternoon, as the result of a terri fic downpour of rain, which rushed into the shaft where they were working. The full details of the accident can not be given, because telephone com municalion is cut off tonyjht End the place is not accessible by telegraph. The mine is owned by the Whitney Re duction Company. This afternoon a terrific rain came tip and the nine men working in the shaft attempted to come out. Before they could reach the surface water overflowed the shaft in torrents and ODly one of the men, Thos. Moyle, superintendent, escaped. Another climbed nearly out, but was beaten back and drowned along with seven colored men. All were caught like rats in a trap. There were but two white men in . the mine and one of them was the only person to escape. "fhe names of the dead so far as known are as follows: Will Camp, John Mc Graw, Bob DeBerry, Sam Price and Thomas Moyle. It seems that there was something like a water-spout there, from the de scription of the way the shaft was flooded. Violent A Mark ef Diarrhoea rnred ky Chamberlain', rollc.

The American Cotton Man ufacturer says editorially: Existing indications for a larger cot Ion crop than the South ever produced are propitious. There has been much discussion as to the ability of the South to pick'a crop suflicient for the needs of the manufacturers; much of this has been adverse, the opinion apparently being that while not less than 12,000,000 bales will be rr-piired to bring stocks to the normal, if a crop of such size is grown, that labor cannot be obtained to pick it when ready. It is beyond question that in spite of any amount W academic discussion this matter is essentially one of cold cash. No matter what has been the prevailing price for picking in the past, if the cotton is "made" and the opera tion of picking only remains to give it a commercial value it simply resolves itself into one of profit, and this alone will be left to waste in the fields from a lack of resident or native labor. Prognostications to possess a rea sonable certainty of accuracy must necessarily be based upon ruling con ditions and past events will therefore tend to illuminate present conditions if the experience of the by gone time is reviewed. It is safe to say that never in the recent history of the cotton culture in this country has the fibre been left in the field, with poBsibiy one exception, and that was in no sense attributable to lack of ability to harvest the crop. When the price was five cents for middling and "tinges" of the last rem nants remaining, commanded but four cents a pound, it is true that on poor land and where the fields where thin the residue of the at the prevailing price valueless cotton was neglected and allowed to go to waste. With the crop so ftr advanced as at present and the area under cultivation so well known, it is not beyond the bounds of conservatism to asset t that we shall see an average price of not Icbs than seven cents for the next season. For present purposes the cost of growing the crop may.be neglected, since our object is, to show that at seven cents the entire crop will be picked, for with an abnormally large crop the grower will be confronted with a certain amount of cotton in the field on which he has expended actual cash for seed, fertilizer and labor, this can only be prevented from becoming a dead loss by gathering and marketing. Taking one bale of 500 pounds for the purposes of illustration we find that neglecting the cost of production the cotton at seven cents would bring (35 and the seed would be worth 97, a total of 142. Against this would be debits as follows: Bagging, ties and gin ning fT.50, aside from the actual cost Now the ordinary price for picking ranges from 30 to 40 cent a hundred pounds of seed cotton and as it takes about 1,500 pounds of this to give one bale of lint, we will assume that the grower will pay $1 per hundred to save a part of the fruit of bis season's labor, this would mean an expense 01 flu a bale. Adding these items we get a total of $16.50, which would show a saving of $25.50 a bale, as against a dead loss by abandonment. Even if $1.50 per hundred pounds were paid for picking, the planter would still save $18 per hale. The average day's work for picker being from 150 to 200 pounds per day, it is clear that at $1 a hundred, from $1.50 to $2 per day would be earned, while at $1.50 rr 100 pounds the daily wages would range from $2 25 to $3. Considering then the condition by which the cotton Suites might be con fronted in the event of a scarcity of native labor, it is obvious that for un skilled labor, offering remuneration f from $1.50 to $3 a day the cotton crop can be taken care of even if an abnor mally large crop is grown. As the wheat, the hops and the cran berries are harvested by a migration from the congested cities of multitudes1 of their workers, who with change from stifling surroundings to the fresh' air of the country combine a profit, so wil"he South'! cotton crop be cared for until her normal agricultural popu lation is sufficient to perform the work. A temporary halt may be caused for one season, but in a country of Obty millions a profitable crop will never be permanently allowed to be scattered to the winds. We come of too practical a breed to allow it Neither will the world long starve for cotton. If it needs twenty millon bales to saUsfy it, the Sooth will grow it, snd market it, and all this at a profit, and if the native labor is insufficient the people of other sections of the United States will take a band and assist at the picking and thus keep the spindles of the world turning. . THE WATER. Convivial Diver Took That Method of Gelling; Beat. San Franclsoo Call. Somtqueer yarns are told about the men who wear the .uniform of a sailor in the service of Uncle Sam. Probably the queerest is the one told of Gun ner's Mate Johnson, a strapping big Swede at present serving out an enlist ment on board a ship of war that fre quently visits San Francisco. Johnson, it appears, is a most con vivial soul and fond of his grog. He is also a good sailor, but shines as a diver. A short time ago, while his ship was anchored near Mare Island, it be came necessary to send Johnson into the depths to take off some of the growth from the hull. His first dive laSled about an hour. When he came up he told the executive officer it would take about a week to make the ship's bottom clean. He was given the task, and every day at 9 o'clock, clad in.xubber suit and helmet, he slipped over the ship's side. At "mess gear" (meal time) he came up, had his meal and at 1 :30 o'clock went down again, remaining down until "mess gear" sounded again. - For five days Johnson kept this up, and then the chief gunner grew a lit le bit suspicious. About 3 o'clock one afternoon he ordered a second diver's suit "broken out." This he donned and went overboard. He came up in about ten minutes and so did Johnson. When the .cumbersome suits were removed the gunner ordered Johnson "to the mast." At this ship's tribunal Johnson faced the captain. What the skipper said to him could not be heard, but at the close of the interview Johnson saluted and walked forward. The explanation came next day when the gunner confided to a fellow officer that Johnson, who had been given every night ashore, spent them royster- ing about, then came aboard ship, donned the helmet and suit and slipped over the side of the ship, ostensibly to clean the ship's bottom, but really to sleep. His shipmates were in on it, of course. - - The gunner's suspicions had been aroused when he noticed that the air bubbles that always appear on the tur face directly over the diver did not vary a foot during all the time John son was down. When be investigated he found Johnson hanging like a huge barnacle to the side of the ship. His arms were dangling about in the water and his reclining position was main' tained by the aid of his signal lines, one of which he had passed around his shoulder and the other around his feet, Bob-White a Valuable Bird. The ornithologist of the Department of Agriculture have been making an investigation of the economy value of the Bob-White, as a result of which it is announced that that bird is "proba bly the most useful abundant species on the farm." Field observations, ex periments, and examinations show that it consumes large quantities of weed seeds and destroys many of the worst insect pests with which farmers con tend, and yet it does not injure grain, fruit or any other crop. It is figured that from Sept. 1 to April 30, annually in Virginia alone, the total consump tion of the 'weed seed by Bob-Whites amounts to 573 tons. Some of the pests which it habitually dt stroys, the report says, are the Mexican cotton boll-weevil, which damages the cotton crop to the extent of more than $15, 000,000 a year; the potato beetle, which cuts off $10,000,000 from the value of the potato crop; the cotton worms, which have been known to cause $30,- 000,000 loss in a year; the chinch bug and the Rocky Mountain locust, scourges which leave desolation in their path and have caused loss aggre gatlng $100,000,000 in some years. The report urges measures to secure the preservation of the Bob- w bites in this country. . Ho Slot Etnrk In the Slnd. Salisbury, Aug. 12.

Charlotte Observer, The topic most discussed in and out of season, Sunday.),' "Suppers And din ners and sleeping hours not excepted, is the Wilkesboro convention. As men tioned in this correspondence before, the Bepublicans seem to think they are well-pleased and the Democrats say they have done a good day's work. Congressman Kluttz was interviewed yesterday and gave a very candid and encouraging aspect of the campaign He said: "I vlon't see why Mr. New- land shouldn't receive a larger vote than I did two years ago. This is a presidentian year when there is never so large a stay-at-home vote as charac terizes the off years in politics. The presidential campaign will held to draw these out. I think the district is in better shape now than it was two years ago." This is not hard to believe when it is remembered what Mr. Kluttz had to contend with two years ago. The Republican had an immense source of revenue in the district then. They had their whole hearts set upon carrying the district for Blackburn. Demo crats think there will be greater diffi culy attending the Republican cry for money this year than at that period, a natural and logical view inasmuch as Mr. Blackburn could not give a very good account of his stewardship this time. It is not to be thought that Mr. Newland can poll a larger vote in Row an than Mr. Kluttz could. Nobody can do that, for he is the ablest and most popular man iu the district. Walter Murphy, Esq., was also inter viewed relative to the situation. Mr. Murphy was Mr. Hackett's champion in this county and made a splendid tight for him. He thinks there will be no considerable scratching of Newland, and says he will run well up with the State ticket, although Judge Parker will lead the ' ticket. Chairman Boyden thinks Newland will poll a big vote and intends to write him promising a" larger majority than Mr. Kluttz had iu the last campaign, Ex-Chairman Julian says the year will give the Democratic nominee an advantage that Mr. Klutlz did not have. Tha opinion of Col. Boy den on matters political, always com mania respect and attention, and the fact that he came out so strongly for Newland, bodes no good for the Repub licans. On every hand, there is assur and doubly sure, that Mr. Spencer Blackburn, of Wilkesboro and Greens boro, will go down to merciless defeat. There are many Republicans willirg to bet that Newland will win, while there is no money to be placed on Blackburn The cigarette In Canada. The Canadian Commons, by a large majority, has psssed a most stringent anti-cigarette bill through the commit tee stage. The bill provides that: "No person, by himself or by his clerk, servant, employee or agent, shall, for himself or any one else, directly or indirectly or upon any, pretense or by any device, manufacture, sell, dispose, keep or offer for sale or give away any cirgarettc, cigarette papers or cigarette wrappers or any substitute for such wrappers, or shall keep or own or be in any way concerned, engaged or em ployed in owning or keeping any cigar ettes or cigarette papers or wrappers or shall authorize or permit any of these to be done. "No cigarettes, cigarette papers or wrappers shall be imported into Canada or entered for consumption therein, and all cigarettes, cigarette papers or wrap pers or papers intended as such shall be subject to seizure by any officer of cus toms or inland revenue; and they, with the packages in which they are con tained, shall be subject to be seized and forfeited to his majesty and shall be disposed of under regulations made by the governor in council." The penalties provided are, a fine not exceeding $100 and not less than twenty dollars for first offense, and in default of payment liability to impris onment, and for a second offense liability to imprisonment, without the option of a fine, for a term not exceed ing one year and not less than six months. Cholera Infantum. This disease has lost its terrors since Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Dair rhoea Remedy came into general "use.

One Who Known. Don't be too anxious to get a hus band," said the wise matron. "Don't go around hunting for Qp." "Think I should just sit down and wait for one.eh?" replied the maiden. "Yes for you'll sit up and wait for one often enough after you've got him." t Denying a fault doubles it. MR. KIWI TELEPHONES AND R( HAL FRan) DELIVERY. New. and Observer. Mr. J. Z. Green, editorof Our Home, of Marshville, was in the citjfc yester day, and speaking of his county, said: "Union county is ntt setting ricfc as fast as some counties in the State, but there are evidences of substantial pro gress in the rural districts. Th ten ant system does not prevail to the ex tent it did a few years ago and there are comparatively few of our white farmers who do not own their homes. "The isolation incident to farm life under former conditions is rapidly dis appearing among Union county farm ers. We have decidedly the most ex. tensive rural telephone system in the State, We have probably six or seven hundred 'phones in the rural districts. and that means that they are in every neighborhood in the county. "The system of rural free delivery of mailt has almost covered theaounty, and with this and the rural tele phone system our farmers enjoy con veniences of cities, without having the objectionable surroundings of city life. If you want to see progress that is substantial, watch the rural districts of Union. In politics our farmers are conservative. They have no leaders and are not etsily Bwept off their feet when it comes to matters political. "Our rural school districts are grad ually adopting the system of local tax ation for schools, thus making the public school terms longer and better, If there's any other modern methods of progress that Union county folks haven't adopted, it's because they have not heard of them, and if 'there's any improved methods interested they'll hear of it, for they have the facilities ipr hearing of things rural free deliv ery and rural telephones." Bryan Would Have People Elert Post ...asters. William J. Bryan has announced himself in favor of the election of post masters by the people. He says: "Muy should a president be per mitted to turn the postoflice Depart ment into a partisan machine and use I thousands of postmasters as paid agents to advocate his political fortunes? He should not.- "Why should a member of Congress be permitted to build up a personal or ganization composed of the postmasters recommended by him, but paid by the Government, and use this organization to defeat other congressional aspirants in his own party ? He should not. "Why should the great father at Washington, as the Indians call him, be permitted to electioneer among the negro voters of the North by appointing negro postmasters in the South against the protest of the patrons of the office? He should not. "And yet all these things are openly and notoriously done today. The elec tion of postmasters by the people whom they are to serve will correct all these abuses. It is harmony with Democratic principles; it is consistent with the doc trine of local self-government. What objection can be raised against it?" Blat-kburn Sloves Again. Cor. Charlotte Observer. Winston-Sai.em, Aug. 10. Mr. E, Spencer Blackburn and family have moved from Greensboro to Wilkesboro again, rney arrived in ureeuBboro yesterday from Washington and went to Wilkesboro to-day to remain until the campaign is over. The Republican nominee for Congress in the eighth dis trict expressed himself as being de lighted over the nomination Of Mr, W. C. Newland, saying that he regarded the Democratic nominee the weakest man in the race. He said that he pre dicted a few weeks ago that "Dick" Hackett, whom he regarded the strong- eat man the Democrats could have put up, would be defeated. "Mr. Blackburn was asked if be had received a letter from Mr. Newland asking for a joint ganvass. ' ".No, but you can say that if Mr. Newland wants a joint canvass be can certainly be accommodated," re plied the Republican nominee, who added that "if I can't beat Mr. Newlanr", I can't beat anybody."
