These are the opening paragraphs of an article which The Lenoir News copies from The Cincinnati Times Star: "People who never heard of George Washington. "People who don't know what Val entine's day is. "People who never heard of the Fourth of July. "People to whom ice cream is a for eign unknown quantity. "People who never saw a rocking- chair or heard of a piano. 'People to whom the arts of civiliza tion ate all unknown and to whom the history of their own country is an un known chapter, yet who live right in the heart of civilization ein our own United States. "Who are they? "They are the mo'untaineers of North Carolina, and hearts all over Ohio are being touched by the pitiful story of their isolation in a civilized country. It is their history that is being told by a Cincinnati girl, who will go as a missionary of civilization to these peo ple. Remarkable, in its eveay detail, is the story of the strange work cf try ing to bring civilization to those mountaineers." It appears from an interview given the Cincinnati paper by this beautiful and accomplished young "missionary of civilization," Miss May Pauline Abbott by name, that she has already been doing missionary work among these benighted people, whom she de scribes as living, moving and having their beiog in a "mountain faetnessA' one mile from the public road, three miles from Hudson and seven miles from Lenoir, in Caldwell couDty. It is a veritable tale of woe that she pours into the attentive ear of the Cincinnati reporter. Listen : "The conditions of this little moun tain community are almost unrealizable to. the people of a civilized country. The people know absolutely nothiog of the arts of civilization and have lived in this little mountain community for years and years without any communi cation with civilization. They are proud people, and only by treating them as equsls and with the respect due them can they be reached. These North Carolina mountaineers live in rude one-story log cabins. The clothes are woven just as was done in primitive times. The food they eat is mainly corn-bread. The furniture of the house is simple and rude. A -chair is fash ioned by cutting down a tree and plac ing pegs on the round side, whereupon the flat side becomes the seat. The cooking is done by the women over open fire places on which big logs are burned. Styles for women's dresses are unheard of things. The state of morals among the men and women is rapidly being raised." All owing, of course, to The labors of Miss May Pauline Abbott, who must have treated the people as equals, otherwise she could not have reached them so sufxessfully. Listen some more: ' '. ' "It was simply marvelous to me how, right here in this civilized United States, these people had lived in the ignorance of isolation so long un known. The chief 'diversion in their lives before last winter, when I opened the school, was when straggling poli ticians drove through the country and told the men to vote. And the men are Republicans and Democrats. But tbey vote, the Republicans thinking they are voting against slavery and the Democrats thinking they are voting for It, into this mountain country I went alone last winter to bring civilization to the people." How good of her ! Again : "A circuit wis established for a Methodist minister and our part of the community, 125 souls, came ( the preaching and saj all day on the floor (we have no benches), without dinnfr, to hear the gospel afternoon service. Many of these people traveled tbrHy five miles in rough country wagons drawn by mules. I saw only one torse in the country. If I can get the utno neoDle to give me the money nd old chairs and clothes, and if I could just get a piano to take back with me this winter, I should be in some degree happy. I have got the railroad people to transport anything I can get free for me. Oh, if the people of civilization would only realize the debt they owe humanity and would give of their old furniture and clothea to these poO isolated people of the North Carolina mountains." The Lenoir News is impertinent enough to want to know why these mountaineers travel 35 miles to hear the Gospel while they ait on the floor, when they could go seven miles to Lenoir where there are One churches, all with seats in them, or to Cedar Valley or Mt, Hebron, three miles away, both of which have been estab lished for half a century and both of which boast seats and other modern vanities, (ftur Lenoir contemporary is quite hot under the collar about it all and devotes a column to Mitt, May Pauline Abbott, her words and works ; but it isn't at all worth while to swell up about this sort of thing, though the plea to Ohio to send old clothes and second s)nd furniture to our folks this does lie a little heavy on the stomach. . Mob Hurna Two Negroes. Savannah, Ga., Aug. 1G. With clothing saturated witti kerosene, writh ing twisting in their agony, screaming to heaven for mercy that the mob would not show, Paul Keed and Will Cato, negroes, two cif the principals in the jiastardly murder and burning of Henry Hodges and wife and three of their children, six miles from States boro, three weeks ago, were burned at the stake today. This afternoon at 1:21 o'clock a de termined mob charged upon the court house, overpowered the military guard, secured Cato and Reed, who had been found guilty after a legal trial and sentenced to be hanged, took them two miles from Statesboro and there exact ed the fearful penalty. The forenoon passed quietly, the trial of Paul Reed, the ringifeader in the murder, being concluded and a verdict of guilty rendered. Sentence was imposed upon both him and Will Cato, sentenced the day before, and September 9 was fixed as the date for the execution. A New One In Rural Mlang. New York Times. ,' "It's part of my business to keep apace with the current slang," said Oscar Hanrmerstein, "and I don't think much that is new gets by me. The other day I was in a rural part of Con necticut looking after some property. The farmer's daughter said her mother was in the parlor talking to Mrs. Barnes. " 'Whatever you have to say to ma,' explained the girl, 'you might as well tell before her. They're never apart all day long, them two.' " 'What,' I exclaimed, 'are they so thick as all that?' "Thick!" repeated the girl; 'why, they're so thick they both eat out of one egg.'" A Silent Argument. A wanderer through South Carolina watched an old negro fishing in a brick yard pond for forty minutes, says the Cleveland Plain Dealer, during which time the hook was not pulled up. "Do you think there are any fish there?" he asked at last. "No, sah; I reckon not." "But you seem to be fishing." "Yes, sah." "But perhaps you are not fishing for fish. What is your object?" "De object, sah, of my fishin foh fish wbah dey hain't any fish, is to let de ole woman see dat I hain't got no time to hoe de truck in de gyahdin patch." Ktaniy County Primaries. Albemarle, Aug. 15.

Tweeny vears ago the late Senator George G. Vest delivered a eulogy over the grave of Major James Wood at Se- dalia, Mo., which portrays some of his sentimental side and gives an idea of his views oa death, Hessid: "Every death is a totgedy. We stand by he open grave, mutter a few prayers, and rush back to the struggle and meanness of life. A few loyal and loving hearts may throb with agony, but time dulls the pain obscures the memory, until the cold, pulseless mar ble at last alone keeps watch above the dead. "Every death is a tragedy, because it ends a life's history, full of aspiration, love, bate, temptation and suffering. Poor judges are we of each other! And the truth will never be known, or jus tice done, until the Great Chancellor shall judge the secret intents of each heart. Then the Pharisees of .this world, who 'thank God they are not like yonder publican,' and who have been followed to their last resting plaoe with all the pageantry of woe, will be thrust aside, spotted like toads with pretense and hypocricy, whilst many despised and condemned by men will be found to have been martyrs and he roes until their bruised and broken hearts cease to beat. "It is a sacred duty that one who knew most thoroughly and intimately for thirty years him whose name is now enrolled amongst the dead should bear public testimony to his character, and qualities. I helped to bury his father, and it is my great sorrow that I could not come to lay the son with loving and tender bands to his rest, but I can at least speak of him the simple truth and place a flower upon his grave. He was brave, generous, just, and truttfful. "He was an open foe and the truest friend ever had by mortal man. Not the world in arms could drive him from his convictions or from Ihe side of a friend. The poor, the weak, the op pressed, he always helped and defended without counting the cost or odds against him. Children loved him and would cling to him with the unerring instinct ot childhood. "Sorely tempted and often falling, struggling fiercely against strong pas sions and faults inseparable from his nature and temperament, he loved always the good and the true, and was the sworn enemy of wrong, sham and deceit. He was often wreckless, un wise, and hasty, but was never guilty of a mean cowardly of dishonest act. If he sinned much, he suffered much, and was glad to put off the burden and lie down to sleep. "How much he suffered is known only to his God, for he complained to no one and asked for no pity orsympa' thy, but from his own lips I know that his future in this life had not one ray of hope or gleam of sunshine and that he longed for death. "Peace, aching heart! I know not and care not what may be the judg ment of the cold, pretentious moralists, of the Pharisees with broad phylacteries and verses of Scripture upon them ; for myself I would choose your lot rather than theirs on the last great trial, when the advocate for poor, fallen humanity shall be Jesus of Nazareth, who said to hypocrites of old, 'Let bim that is guiltless cast the first (tone!' " Hornet. Cure Drunkenness. Holton (Kn.) Record. The jail at Whiting is an old Jxx building that is aeldom used. On July 1, however, a young man imbibed too freely of some tonic that not only toned him up, but made him unduly fractious, and the city marshal was compelled to gather bim in and place him in this little-used jail. Just after they left him the most horrible cries of pain and shouts for help were beard issuing from the wooden box, but it was supposed that these wete only the ravines of a drunken man"who desired to attract attention. Some time later it was discovered that a nest of honets had been disturbed by the prisoner's entrance sndsftri mediately commenced to punish him for disturbance of their peace, as well as for drunkenness. The treatment sobered him and the police justice deemed further penance un necessary. Violent Attack .f jSjiarraioea Cnreel ky rnkwlaia'l colic, fkolern nnel Dlnrrkora Rtnrdsst Perhaps a Life Saved.

Editor Times : When I came out here I was solemnly warned by more than one person, who professed to know, that I would never be able to stand a summer in St. Louis, as it was, with the possible exception of the Death Valley in California, the hottest place in the United States. And now, on the 8th day of August, what are the facts? We have had up to this time a perfectly ideal summer, and I have ex perienced no weather here as warm as I found it in Raleigh during a short stay there about the middle of July, Last night, for instance, I slept nuder a sheet and bad to pull up another cover before morning. I am merely writing this to show people intending to visit the exposition that there seems to 4e no reason why they should put off their visits until the fall for fear of getting roasted to death if in St. Louis during July aud August. And the Fsir is at its best right now. The beauties of the out door effects could hardly be surpassed. Yesterday, Sunday, I spent an hour or two in taking in the beauties of the Cascade Gardens, and I can safely say that I have never seen anything in flowers and foliage to equal the picture there presented. , Words are entirely inadequate to give any idea of the gorgeous coloration of the flower beds, the beautiful detigtis and artistic arrangement of the foliage plant beds all set off by the surround ing velvety lawps and combined into one harmonious who'e that can only be appreciated after being seen. The buildings, too, sre now at their very best, both inside and out, as time has not yet laid its hand on the ornamentatic or taken the edges off the many graceful outlines. Exhibits, too, are still clean and fresh, as bright colors have not had time to fade, nor any evidence of "shop wear" to be seen on any band. The crowds are large enough to keep things from being too quiet. Two days last week showed an attendance of nearly a hundred and forty thousand each, which are numbers sufficiently large to keep one from being lone' some. It is a great show and a fine show, and everyone who can do so should make a point of seeing the greatest exposition that has ever been or that is likely to be in some years to come. Yours very truly, ' ' H. H. Bri.mi.ev, Com'r-General for North Carolina. St. Louis, August 1G, 1904 ? Not Every Boy ana Klrl Should C.o to College. BlDllcal Recorder. We long ago surrendered the notion that all boys and girls should be sent to college. We have seen not a few that should not have been sent to any col lege. There is a large class of b?ys who will learn, will develop more rapidly at work than at school. Send them to school and they will become loafers There are others (and they are many) who cannot take classical or Jiterary education and what nave no use what ever for it, but who may profit mightily by agriculture or mechanical training. We are glad that farming is becoming popular again, and that young men are finding out that agriculture is at once one of the greatest, most fascinating and profitable studies. Likewise there is great practical and educational value in the mechanic trades, nd many young men will find preparation in them more likely to make men of them than the mere study of books. We do not hesitate, therefore, to advise some parents to put ther boys to work, and others to give them a strictly practical education in the A. aud M. College. How Long Does a Terrapin Live? tanbury Reporter. Mr.H. C. Southern, of Neatman, was heresjSaturdA and told the Re porter a wonderfultale about a terra pin. Forty or fifty years ago old man Ben Ziglar cut his name on terra pia's back and turned it loose near the home of Mr. Southern. About three years ago the creature was found near the place where it was set at liberty, and A. P. Baker and J. A. Southern also took the occasion to inscribe their initials on its back. And the other day the terrapin was fouuifc again within a feir feet of where Messrs. Southern and Baker turned it loose. All the ndpes on its back were easily read, v rhelera Infantum. This disease haa lost its terrors since Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Dair rhoea Remedy came into general use. The uniform success which attend the use of this remedy in all cases of bowel complaints in children has made it a favorite wherever its value has become known. For sale by M. L. Marsh.
