Baltlmora Bun. Our eteernd contemporary, the New York WorldTbn last Sunday devoted page to an ceo out of Mn Hatty Green wbom it styles "the richest woman la the world." According to thUacoound no one ever lived a mors cheerless life than this rioh woman. Whether she sbaa a hundred millions or a hundred and twenty-five millions, as the esti mates runwshe has at her command everything that money can buy. Yet she is greatly to be pitied, for she li friendless and alons and is apparently oppressed with the sordid cares which sometimes embitter the lives of those who havs scarcely the means to provide food. Man, says the Psalmist, walketh himself in vain shadow and ditqaietetb himself in vain : be heapeth up riches and cannot tell who shall rather them. Mrs.tireen think she knows who will gather the riches she it heaping np. But in thit even she may be mistaken It it said that she it saving and deny' lng herself of all the necessaries of life in order that when she diet her only ton may be the richett man in the world. Tbe ton has now reached middle life. He may live to inherit hit mother's millions and he may not squander them when they are his. But who can tell T la the meantime he lives in Texas, while his mother in her old are it living alone, with nothing to comfort her or give her pleasure except the (jeatelets gathering pf dollars. . A& oordingto the World's account, this rich woman has an office in New York in which the toils daily more hours than the poorest clerk. At night the crosses the Hudson and takes refuge in s mean apartment house, where she lives incognito, having no friends and no social life, wrangling with the grocer over the price of the few purchases of food shs makes. She actually, it is said, washes her own clothing and saves cents more earnestly than an organ grinder. And what it the purpose of this life ot toil, of loneliness, of penury f Simply, it would seem, that her son may be as unhappy as the it. Com pared with tuch a life, the life ot the man with the hoe is beautiful and at tractive. Mrs. Green is living ths life of King Midas. Everything be touched turned to gold, but there was nothing in it for bim. Of Jehoram, King of Judah, the terible sentence was written after his death --that "he departed wunoni oeing aesirea. Hit life was useless, he helped none, and when he died there was not a friend to mourn bit loss, not one tear thed upon hit grave. He departed without being de sired. Mrs. Green's money, according to this account in ths World, and it is to be hoped it is not accurate, gives no one employment, makes no horns happy, lightens no man's burdens. It is loaned to Vail street speculators at a high rate ol interest. A Delighted Aadlenee. Salisbury Son. When the curtain went up for the first act in Bobin Hood at Meroney't theatre Saturday night the number of vacant chairs was all sufficent to dis hearten any entertainer. Not so with the Bobin Hood people. With a vim and sett that bore no hint of listless- nest ths forty members of this troupe presented a comic opera that has never been surpassed in Salisbury, and, for that matter, in but few instances in any ot North Carolina's leading cities. The management of Meroney't theatre has displayed much enterprise in securing this excellent company and at the same time set a high standard which, to be maintained, must be patronised.

"Betsy," George Bradley's famous hen known to poultry rais s sll through Ttnnsssee, is dead at the age of 22 years, and has been buried with honors befit ting her carecjayof tseiulnesa. Betsy was one of the brood of chicks hoh"1 00 tt lhal Badly', We,l son waa norn, nearly tweniy-inree years ago. By Mm date of the young man's birth the family established her age. Betty was oooationallr permitted fb indulge her motherly initiontt, upon which occasions she invariab brought into the world from a dosen to fifteen of the finest idicki that ever scratched gravel. - . - When not engaged in motherly dn ties Betsy sometimes worked overtime and laid two eggs a day. - A year after year parsed without any appreciable difference in Betay's stren nosity, she became the wonder of the country and the barnyard Jewel of the Bradley family. - It is estimated that during that Umt this industrious hen has laid 4,760 eggs and hatched 570 chickens. At the age of 19 Betsy suddenly changed her habits and seemed seised with a distinct aversion for roosters, The finest cooks of the walk in farmer Bradley's barnyard had no charm for Betsy. She spurned them all. Dur ing the last three years of her life Betsy did not lay an egg or hatch a chiok, Over her grave Mr. Bradley will erect a headstone inscribed as follows: ' "Here lies laying Betsy. Born in 1883; died in 1905. , She did many fowl deed for those .she loved. Peace to her bones let them lay. May she lay again some other day," If the 4,750 eggs that Batsy laid dur iog her nineteen years ot faithful service were sold in the market at their present price they would realist 1908 50. It bar 570 chickens brought an average price of 20 eenta they would represent market value of sm. On this basis Betsy earned $1,079 50 For her owner before she retired from votive duty and commenced . to take life easy. 4 Sensible trbool Board la aa Ceaniy. Stateevtue Landmark. Up in Ashe county tbe other day B. E. Faw took a deck of cards from one of his pupils, Davs Bower, 16 years old, and burned them. He then attempted to chastise Bower for bringing the cards to school, but the boy resisted and at tacked the teacher with a stick. But the teacher was somewhat on bis mus cle himself, for he took the stick away from the boy and whaled him good. The school committee it related to Bower and the doors of ths school houss were locked against the teacher. He appealed to the oounty board which sustained the teacher. Evidently tbe sentiment which permits youngsters to do entirely as they please at school and elsewhere hain't invaded Ashe county to any considerable extent. - Dylsm of Vaanlae is, in its torments, like dying of con sumption.

The DIOrnre Between a Cultivated and Uncultivated Voice. MarthvlUe Borne. Somebody aekt ut if we oan tell tbe difference between a "cultivatedvoice" in sieging one that is not "cultivated Certainly we can readily distinguish the difference.

When you hear a trembling, warbling, vibiating, chok log, screaming aggregation of noises withont being able to understand a single word that it being repeated that's "cultivated voice." It'i a mighty deaf man that can't tell the difference. Cow Stirs Battler's Wrath. Haselton Cor. Philadelphia Record.
