Smithfield Herald: Stephen Lane, colored, who lived near Princeton, was found dead Tuesday morning, May 8th, holding to his plow handles and reins. There has been several light show ers of rain in different parts of the county this week, but not enough for those who have cotton to plant, and we fear hardly enough to make cotton al ready planted come up. Sanford Express. Miss Mary Mc Donald, a maiden lady who was seri ously shot in the face some months since by Bob Ray, and who since re ceived severe injuries from a fall, died on Tuesday of last week. The com mencement exercises of the Carthage Academic Institute will take place Fri day, May 25th. The literary address will be delivered by Professor J. B.

E. church was attended by a very large crowd yes terday morning at 11 o'clock to hear the annual sermon before the Raleigh and Gaston Relief society, delivered by Rev. D. H. Tuttle.

The dis course abounded throughout with excel lent advice both as to the spiritual and temporal welfare of those present, and the effects were plainly visible upon all who heard it. . Concord Standard: Sunday night about 8:45 while a northbound freight train was nearing Concord, James Al len was on top of a box car putting on a break.

Ne wbern Journal. One of the most successful revivals ever held in Beaufort closed Sunday in the Baptist church of that city. It was of two weeks dura tion, and the results areforty additions to the Baptist church, and a few to the Methodist. Twenty-four of the con verts were baptized Sunday thirteen men and eleven ladies.

Wades boro messenger: A very in teresting revival meeting is in progress at the Methodist church in Morven. Jim Home, who was reported dead, drowned in Pee Dee river, still lives and is apparently in the best of health. The drought in and around Wades- boro continues. Enough rain has not fallen here since the snow in February to run in the ditches. The truth of the old adage "that it never rains but it pours," was felt with overwhelming force of Mr. lx. W. Huntley last Tues- dav morning when he went to his sta bles and found a fine mule lying dead, another mule very sick, and still an other one with one of its eyes knocked nearly out. And, to cap it all, his highly prized Jersey calf was appar ently at the point of death. Burlington News: The fertilizer trade may be smaller, and that Is not a bad sign, more especially when it is to go under large crops of tobacco. We often inquire of our farmer friends about the tobacco crop, and all say plants are scarce, but if seasonable we think they arelnot going to cut the crop very short; Mr. W. A. Moore of Morton's township was in the city Thursday and reported to the Mews, that at a houserollingat Squire Barker's last Tuesday evening, John Graves, a colored tenant of the squire, who was helping in the work was struck by a lever and so badly injured that he died the next morning.

She has been a Sister of Charity for fifty years, con tinuously and faithfully in the service, and the celebration of her 50th anniver sary will be a very appropriate recogni tion of her services, 'i ne ladies of St. Peter's this afternoon gave her a riounains. men ui iuo , mi u congregation gave her a purse. In the "Under the Dome" column ofSundav's Washington I'ost, appears the following: "iNo one auracuon auoui the Capitol, probably, engages more at tention than the gallery of portraits of ex-Speakers of the House of Represen tatives, which hangs in the corridor at the south end of the building.

' To the parent as well as the educator the position of the pnpil when writing should be of the greatest interest. That there Is an alarming increase of npiual curvature and near sight ia children of the present day goes without sayiuR. There must be some reason for it. If we accept the state ment of the Vienna commission of experts appointed to investigate the cause of this increase, we find it charged to the account of sloping wriiiDg:, with its unavoidable faulty positions. If the pnpil who slants hia letters sits sidewise to the desk (a very common posi tion), not only is one shoulder usually high er than the other, but the head is common ly turned until a line connecting the pnpils of the eyes is parallel to the line in which he is writing. Nature impels him to twist his neck so that one eye shall be the same distance from the letters he is making as the other. Unless he does turn his head, the eyes are not equidistant from his work, which tends to shorten the sight of one eye and lengthen that of the other. This ac counts in large measure for the need of two glasses of different power for tho same per son, so frequently met with at the present time. Popular Science Monthly. j Bound to Get the Worst of It. "Trouble!" said the night police reporter, as he turned away from the telephone, "there's nothing but trouble. Here, just as I go on duty, I get aglephone from the city editor that theresisn't a line of room and that he doesn't want a thing from me tonight." "Well, then, just take a night off." "Yes, but he goes on to notify me in an offhand sort of way that if I get left on any good stories it'll just about cost me my job." "Then if you get anything good just send in a little of it just barely enough to out line the story." 'Well, I suppose I'll have to do that, and tonight he'll kick because there's so much of it, and tomorrow he'll kick because there wasn't more. When the paper's crowded, I'm bound to get the ivorat of it, no matter which way I play it." New York Recorder. Subduing a Polar Bear. Settling family quarrels in a household like that of Bidel, the French lion tamer, was no "trifling matter. One day in the midst of an exercise by the wild animals the polar bear became angry and attacked an inoffensive elephant. The elephant showed no surprise, but prepared to destroy his assailant. Bidel, however, hastened to interpose. The bear released the elephant, and hugging Bidel in his long arms began to strangle him. But for his wonderful self possession BideS would have been lost. L He had stout, solid fists, and he pounded them on the bear's nostrils until the animal relaxed his grip. Then ho wrenched him self free and gave the bear a vigorous beat ing with a stout stick. In a few moments all was quiet again. Youth's Companion. What Emerson Prayed For. In driving with Whittier one day Emer son pointed out a small unpointed house by the roadside and said: "There lives an old Calvinist in that house, ond she says she prays for me everyday. I am glad she does. I pray for myself." "Does thee?" said Whittier. "What does thee pray for. friend Emerson?" "Well," replied Emer son, when I nrst open my eyes upon tne morning meadows and look out upon the beautiful world, I thank God that I am alive, and that I live so near Boston."

It Had Remained TImt For Twenty-um tears Witbuut Causing Trouble. Extracting a foreign lody from the ear is an operation winch the physician U fnv quently called upon to perform; ? Inny chil dren seem to have a decide 1 reskness for stowing peas, beans, buttons and various other small articles in their ears, which in some cases produce very serious disturb ances. An interesting case was recently recorded in The Lancet by Dr. Pritchard. The foreign body in this case remained in the ear 21 years without causing any urgent symptom. The physician said he was called to see a married woman and found her to be suffering from a case of tonsilitis. She complained of much pain in swallowing and of an acute pain in the right ear. The throat inflammation quick ly subsided, and in a few days the throat had resumed its normal condtion. The ear ache, however, persisted. When asked as to whether she had bad any ear trouble previously, she said that "for some years past she had suffered from occasional neuralgic pains and a sense of something being in the ear." She did not think she was particularly deaf, but had noticed Lately that she had acquired the habit of turning her left ear when listening to any fee ble sounds. She then stated that when a child, 21 years ago, she remembered placing it pea in her ear in imitation of her nurse, who was performing the sleight of hand trick of inserting a pea in her ear and withdrawing it from Tier nose. She placed a pea in her ear, but was unable to complete the feat. A doctor was sent for, but after repeated attempts, all endeavors to remove the foreign body were abandon ed, owing to her struggling. It was hoped the pea would work its way out, and her friends always believed it had done so. Her sense of hearing, tested by a watch, was much impaired, and examination re vealed a large accumulation of wax. Warm oil was applied on two or three occasions, and the ear was syringed with warm wa ter. After removal of some of the wax a dark, rounded body was distinctly visible. Syringing failed to remove it, and a fine, silver wire snare was carefully pushed be yond it, and the body was dislodged, which, on examination, proved to be an ordinary pea. The pea was much shriveled, and a portion of it was covered with epidermis. New York World. Japanese Masic. The appreciation of Japanese music can scarcely prove an easy acquirement to Eu ropeans. Apart from the feebler quality of the tone of the instruments and its singu lar character, Japanese music takes ex tremely complicated forms and demands the most delicate phrasing to express its individuality. "My own experience," re marked Mr. Pigott, "has been that even in the first grade tunes it required 20 or 30 lessons to enable one to grasp the delicate nuances of many of the passages." He ex presses the opinion that unless Japanese musicians come and play to us in England accurate knowledge of their art and appre ciation of their craft can only arise in the west very gradually. The best way to appreciate Japanese mu sic is to hear it performed by native musi cians, without prepossessions of any kind or the prejudices of travelers, and to hear it with ears undebauched as an eastern critic might put it by the modern orches tra, for custom in this matter, as in oth ers, is somewhat of a tyrant. It is hardly possible, indeed, that the music of thesami sen heard for the first time in Japanese streets should be appreciated by the tourist accustomed to such street harmonies as are afforded by the cornet soloist, the piano or gan or the German band. Japanese music should be studied, in fact, as the youthful Japanese learn it, by the ear only and experience of the instru ment, for it is one of the many paradoxes of the art that it is taught entirely by rote and chiefly by blind professors. Women and blind men comprise the musical profession in Japan. It is odd that a peo ple cultivating music on these terms should possess music books at all or beat the pains of devising a system of notation. Saturday Review. PRICES CURRENT.
