Aaklng ror a Law to Compel the Doe tors. Monroe Eaqulrer. 8ome time ago the physicians of this country organized and got up a"biack list." All who had refused to pay doctors' bills were put on the list and medical men agreed not to visit any who was on the black list until the ac count of the physician who had put him on the black list was settled. The doctors have stuck to their agreement pretty well, so well that a petition is now being circulated asking the Legislature to en act a law which will compel a physician to attend the sick when money is tend ered for his services, if the physician has no other reason for refusing to an swer the call than that the one calling j him owes another physician. very large acreage of cotton this year, r i .1 ... wjoiu cultivate n witn great csre and have the prospects for an enormous crop. Let the cotton grow until it is too late to re-plant. In the meantime, let the farmers buy on the cotton ex changes millions on millions of cotton futures. This accomplished, let them begin and plow up at least one-half of all the cotton that was planted. This would at once make cotton soar neaven-nigh, and the farmers could oome up and close out their futures and ne millionaires forevermore. And this would do away with cotton speculation lor a generation, at least. A Boll Weevil. ConcordJan. 22, 1905. Law THE B .u1 Concord, N.

Judge Graham; of Granville, has in troduced in the House of the legislature j three bills amending the criminal law, which ought to pass. Tbe first provides that in the trial of capital cases the State j and defence shall h ave ten peremptory challenges each. This puts each side on something like an equal footing. Under present law the State has four and the defence 24 peremptory challen ges, and in about nine cases out of ten a shrewd lawyer can pick a Jury that will avoid the death penalty.

It is an old-fashioned square instrument. Some of his friends suggested spirits, I but Walker scoffed. He watched the piano for several nights, ' thinking his friends were playing a trick on him. He could discover nothing, however. As long as he remained in the room I the piano gave forth no sound. He had tbe piano taken apart yesterday and I found a rat's nest among the wires.
