Reidsville Weekly: Rev. Dr. Mundy says Tarboro is the greatest bicycle town' he .knows anything about. The riders have a track, . with stalls for their wheels and seats to rest on when they get tired. -The crop prospect Is unusually good. Wheat could hardly look better.

(jampDenton, ana well known as a democratic cannoneer during political campaigns, was drowned in the Cape Fear river, near Robeson's landing, yesterday morning. The I unfortunate man was about 55 years old and leaves a widow and one son. f Charlotte Observer: We congratulate Colonel James E. Boyd upon the posi tion that has been accorded him at the counter. An assistant attorney gen- ' eralship is a dignified place, and an ap pointment to it should be a guarantee of the appointee's capacity" as a lawyer. Colonel ,Boyd' is a capital lawyer, and presonally a good fellow. Dr. J. J. Dupuy, of Davidson college, is very sick. Much uneasiness was felt yes terday about .his condition, and the -latest news from him last night was that he is not expected to live. Gastonia Gazette: Captain M. C. Toms, of Henderson ville, and Mr. Kitchin, of ; Transylvania county, Who have for some time - been operating mica mines in the latter named county, have extended their scope of operation into Jackson county. . In this county they have discovered a new mine which promises to be a very valuable one. One block of mica thirty-six inches in width and weighing about 250 pounds was taken out at one blast, quality of which was first class. Salisbury World: The. little son ; of Rev. Johnson, the Methodist preacher at Albemarle, was kicked by a horse yesterday afternoon" and is seriously hurt. The little fellow was playing around in his father's yard where a horse was grazing and thoughtlessly went too near the horse. The animal kicked the child on the head, knocking him down and rendering him 'uncon scious. The extend of the little fellow's Injuries could not be ascertained yes terday evening, but his injuries are very serious. Raleigh News , and Observer: The elegant home of Baxter ' Shemwell, at Lexington, was at 1 o'clock discovered to be dm lire, and in a short while was burned to the" ground. The fire seemed to have orig inated In the garret and remote from th chimneys, or flues. The origin of, lie fire, lis unknown. Other houses were greatly endangered, but by heroic work of our citizens, were save,. Mrs. Shemwell and children were out of town and Mr. Shemwell up town. The loss claimed Is $10,000, fully covered by insurance. Nearly all the furniture was saved. Danbury Reporfer: We know one fel low up here who only got $6 for the tobacco grown; on a piece of land last year" which would have made $10 or $50 worth of corn, with less than one fourth of the work put on his tobacco. He used about $6 worth of fertilizer. The corn" would not have required any fertilizer. Corn is cash; now, and will be next spring-.- Tnere is such an effort" being made for, a big crop' of tobacco that much of it will not pay for haul ing, it to market next fall, and the best will be comparatively low. We only say this for your good. Think!" - Oxford Ledger:, Sunday's Wilming--tbn Messenger contained twelve pages, and was full of choice reading matter, besides containing -all the latest news. - -A mad dog put in an appearance in West Oxford Wednesday morning and bit four dogs, creating intense ex citement in that neighborhood. The dog was killed and also the four that he bit. Colonel B. ,S Royster, as a member of the governor's staff, will join the criminal pardoner at Raleigh Sunday and accompany him to the Tennessee centennial to be present Tuesday, set apart as governors' day. -: V- Charlotte News: Mr.-Frank Landis, of Oxford, who has many . friends in f Charlotte, was recently the victim of what came near being a fatal crime. He was staying at a hotel In Louisville, Ky. He retired at nisht leaving an order to be called for the early morn ing train for Chattanooga, When the bell boy called him he found him al most unconscious, and while attempt- Ing to dress he fell in a dead faint. A physicain was called in, and upon examination it was found, that he had been heavily: ' chloroformed. It. was also found that he had been robbed of $90. Two men in the next room had also been chloroformed and robbed. (He is the same worthy young man that. Russell's pet. the . nesro Harris, came so near killing at Oxford, for which he was released by the tsar from the penitentiary. Messenger.) Take JOHNSON'S CHILL & FEVER TONIC. Mr. H. A. Boyd recently sheared Wis lkck of s'he'ep, from one of which lie txtt a fleece of clean wool tha!t weig'hed ten and one-half pounds, and three of the fleeces weiarhed twenty-seven arid V hi one-half pounds. He has the Cots "Fwovl and Southdown blood. The sheep industry -ought to be.one 'of the most valuable in the south, but it is virtu ally worcniess, simpiy utfL-a,usts our pw ple neglected it. Sheep can make their own living here and do Well i"he entire year, and need no feed from the mas ter, except occasionally for a few days when the earth 5s covered, in snow.

Some Of us " are rather too old to very, materially mend our Way, but the young men, ttoe young men, what ia golden opportu--ntty lies before them. The fruit is hanging ready and yet so few pluck it. Warren ton Gaze't te. : The Chicago Markets. Chicago, May 29. Speculative markets were all weak and prices lower today. July wheat lost c; corn c, oats c: ribs 7Hc. The change in the weather and estmates of - a 530.000,000 budhel crop of winter and spring wheat affected that ar ticle and -corn suffered similar causes.

The traders who availed themselves of an opportunity late yesterday to cover short . contracts for fear of a crush of those bent on a similar mission today were wise 'in their gen eratiori. Thl rise in prices in the general list, this week has been sufficient to have .Invited extensive profit takng at a week's ena m any. eeK lut muxiwixo y. But sales to take pronts were at a minimum todnv and exercised no manced enect on prices, which held steady near the nie-hAst until the close of trading.! The shrvrts. on the contrary, showed a feeling of unrest over the indications of strength in the market and manifested their un willinsness. under the circumstances, to rarrv over Short contracts unui next Tuesday, at which time trading is to be resumed on -the -stock exchange. Several special factors served to en courage the buying of stocks besides the ncreased confidence ieit in tne general outlook for business.' Some of those who bought stocks gave as their motiye tn trm of the speech delivered by the secre tary of the treasury yesterday, especially his expression ot connaence .mat me tariff bill would be disposed of at an early day and his broad intimation that some measures or currency rerorm wouia men be put forward by the administration Some renewal ot tne buying ior j,onaon account, which was a feature-of the earlier days of the week, also .aaaeu strength to the market. The dealings were remarkably well distributed, the number , of stacks whose .shares were sold being much larger than for some time. The market for stocKs and Donas nas been notably firm and strong all week, though the dealings were a good deal de pressed at times. The dullness came at times cf heaviness in the market, indi cating the disposition of holders to wait for better prices. The rise -in the majority of stocks was only interrupted by the in fluence of special depressing causes trom time to time, such as the unexpected vol- ume or trie goia snipmenxs eariy in me week, the break in the Rubber shares on account of the retirement ot president Evans" and the feeling of distrust dissemi nated by the announcement ot the isaitit more and Ohio default on the interest payments due June 1st. on some of the company s oonas. xnese reaciiouary . in fluences proved inadequate to overcome the encouraging factors at work and the result has been a bull market for the week. The event to which .Wall street attributes the greater part of the im proved tone of trading is the taking up of the tariff bill in the senate, tne aemon strated intention of 'all parties to inter pose no f actitous opposition to its pas sage and . the resultforeshadowed by the votes on committee amendments that no time is to be" lost in setting the whole matter.-., --. ".;,.!; ."-,:.'':..:.''-' More or less attention is attracted by various statistical estimates of - the pres ent activity in general business, accom panied by the arguement that the volume of business, - is .at present : equal to that in some of the most prosperous years " in the country's business, but at such ex-i eremely low prices as not to be evident in estimates of transactions by valua tions. : ;.

Cotton Futures. (Special to The Messenger.) New York, May 29. The exasperating dullness in the cotton market has con tinued this week, and has been more pro nounced than ever. "While this condition has become very ' monotonous, it is not entirely j unnatural, for every feature that might develop interest or stimulate trad ing on one side, has been promptly met and offset by the appearance of some other " feature equally effective, on the other. Even the early crop reports are conflicting some sections reporting slight deterioration and others slight- improve ment. Today we had a strictly holiday market. Liverpool was a little better; our market 4 was also -slightly higher at the opening. The local shorts were somewhat uneasy about, leaving their lines uncover ed over the holiday -and thejr buying caused a further small advance. August opened at 7.12, advanced to 7.16 and closed at 7.15 with the tone of the market steadyl No. one can tell what the immediate fu ture will bring forth in the" way-of spot demand or crop reports. With the pres ent unsatisfactory business conditions in this country and the gloomy reports from -Manchester it seems to us that the pros pects for an ; improvement on spot de mand is poor. The new crop continues to progress but fairly. The complaints that have been received of too cool weather in the south are certainly ; justified, for the ; ' official records . show that the average temperature for- May is the lowest on record. Butthe season Is very young yet. The south has planted for, it is working most .industriously to , secure, ana tne .chances seem . to us to be overwhelming that it will raise ' and market, a great crop. , Tne scares wnlcn - are certain to occur will almost surely result m tem porary booms and we think, that . those who avail; themselves of the opportunity to sell on these advances will net regret -It. Monday being a legal holiday, the ex change will be closed for the day. - -4 - - RIORDAN & CO. (By Associated Press.) New York, May 29. In anticipation of Monday's holiday, the local' contingent covered short contracts today, with the result of advancing price snnally 1 to 4 points. At the close the' market was steady in tone. Sales reachedthe insig. I nificant total of 29,100 bales, representing I a small narrow market,- the scope of I which has, at best, been confined to a I n nnr.s in I scarcely varied more than 2 or 3 points. I Outside speculation was as listless as ever. The local contingent did not more than to even their contracts for a quarter holiday. "While the market closed within a point or two of the best prices of the session," the undertone was rather feeble. Congressman Richardson Contradicts Mr. .; Benedict. Washington, May .-Representative Richardson, of Tennessee, .appeared r be- J fore the senate committee on civil service todav. . . He had been attracted bv the statement at the last session of the comij mlttee Dy jvir. iiaroid seneaict, mat dur- ing the latter part of Mr. Palmers form er administration of the government printing office seventy-five persons had been appointed to positions there at his instance while1 he ; (Richardson) was chairman of the house committee on printing. Mr. Richardson pronounced Mr. Benedict's statement to be untrue. He said that during his entire service of ten years as a member of the printing committee he had secured the appoint ment of but eighteen persons, all from his district. He said, however, that he had epdorsed the application of others from ail political parties, but did not suppose they had been charged to r him. Mr. Richardson stated that so-far as his ob servation . went the general work of the printing office is now in better shape than ever before. - ; , A Female Leper in Baltimore. ' Baltimore, May 29. There Is a female leper at the Johns Hopkins hospital this city; She was taken to the instiution several weeks ago, suffering from what was supposed to be a skin eruption, but after a careful diagnosis of her case by the physicians at the hospital It was discovered that the woman was a victim of the terrible disease of leprosy.
