He said that Durham was the big. gest town in the world for its size. Durham is proud of her success and we cio not oiame ner. sue never does things by halves.

Lynchburg Advance says: ''Some idea of the immensity of the tobacco business of Durham, N. C, can be obtained from the fact that the sale of revenue stamps at that place in September amounted to 60,332.07, and October, it is thought, will reach! a still higher fig ure. This is at the rate of about 88(0,000 a year. For a small town in North Carolina this is a tremend ous business, but then it should be remembered that one tobacco house in Durham is said to spend $.300,0! 0 a year in advertising. : ""This is unquestionably' a most flattering business exhibit for Dur ham in our sister State of North Carolina, and shows a wonderful growth within a few years.

"If 1 had walked up to this rail road track down here and had never before seen one, I would have said 'What is this'?' No one can tell me and I say : 'I will find out' I get a wheelbarrow and roll it along on the rails, and I will say : 'This way was not mad for a wheelbarrow am the wheelbarrow was not made for it.'. I will drive a wagon along the track, but say, after a few feet : "This way was not made for the wagon nor the wagon made for the way.' step down here to this round-house and look at the powerful Rogers engine, look at its magnificent con struction, measure its ponderous driving wheels and see the ilanges upon the track, and I will say 'This engine was . made for that track.' I steam it up to 180 pounds to the square inch, hitch it to eigh or ten passenger coaches and see it move on gracefullyT over steel rails. I say : 'The track was made for the engine and the engine for the track.' The locomotive engine on the track is a thing of beauty, speed and pow er, but off the track it is the most helpless thing I ever saw. It cannot move itself, much less the train. An engine in the ditch looks like a slain giant, truly ; it takes steel rails and ties to make a track for that engine.

We were unable to ascertain at the time of closing our columns al what time the fu neral will take place. Outrageous Treatment. The wind and dust again" held ligh carnival upon our street this morning to the aggravation and dis- comfort of our merchants, and yet the street sprinkler did not appear until eleven o clock. Ihe treat ment our merchants receive in this, matter is simply outrageous and this grievance should be brought lelbre the town authorities in pretty Jain terms. 'Ihe merchants have complied with the demand of the own authorities bv creating a fund to defray the expense of operating the sprinkler and they have a right to demand a compliance with the contract under which this money w:is raised. One' of the commissioners informs us that the failure to run the- sprin kler rests solely upon the street commissioner, who has positive in structions to bring out the sprinkler whenever it is needed II this be true, the town commissionersshould haul the street commissioner over the coals and give him to under stand that if he will not perferm the duties ot his olhce he must step down and out and make room for some one who will. This is plain talk, but we mean it and the cir cumstances justify it. Our mer chants are sick and tired of being trilled with and having their goods damaged, when the means' are at hand to prevent it and when they have paid to have these means put into use.

IT IS MIRED IN TIIE MUP and filth ; try it on the dirt road of unrighteousness and it is powerless after a few feet; try it on the dirt road of Sabbath-breaking and it will stop in the earth in a few. minutes; try it on the dirt road of infidelity, only a few miles and the road fills up and becomes no road. There is but one road in this universe that the soul can run upon. I tried the dirt road of profanity, drunkenness and shame, but glory be to God, the spirit of Christ lifted me out of the horrible pit in which I had mired and put my soul on the way to Jesus Christ, and I have been run ning sixteen years toward the good world, and as certain as an engine needs cross-ties and steel rails, we cannot make the run until we get on the wav of Christ Jesus our Iord.
