Fayetteville Observer: M. E. McLaurin is in the county jail serving a sentence of thirty days for contempt, and though the clerk- of the court and the parties to the prosecution are willing for him to be re leased, it seems that there Is no help for it, and he must serve out the sentence. Betsy Young, for thirty" years cook on the Cape Fear river steamers, and held in high esteem by all who knew her, died at her home in Campbellton last night, at an advanced age. Salisbury -World: .-A- party of young folks from Salisbury rode out to South river yesterday afternoon and were enjoy ing a quiet evening an the banks ojf the Yadkin when the storm, which was gen eral, came up.

The man became delirious and remained so until this (Fri day) morning, when he was brought here. He says the pains are continual and of the most excruciating kind. He had lost all use of his limbs and was unable to walk. Wadesboro Messenger: If it were not for the local demand here and elsewhere in this sectipn, it would be impossible for our cotton buyers to pay more than 7 cents for cotton, but as it is they are pay ing 8 cents. This shows conclusively that the farmers are greatly benefited by the establishment of factories in the south. Stateville Mascot : A' ' gentleman, of Statesville, while reading Sunday thought of a negro whom he had not seen or thought of for fifteen years. He cannot tell why he thought of the negro, but suddenly the negro and some of his antics came into his mind. .The strange part of this story is that the gentleman read in Tues day's Raleigh News and Observer an ac count of the negro's death on Sunday from " a wound inflicted by a white boy with a knife on that day. - Raleigh News and Observer: "President Alderman, of the University ' of North Carolina, will go to Columbia, S.

Mrs. John E. Ray. Mrs. u. C. Edwards, wife of Colohel L. C. Ed wards, of Oxford, died Friday in her 68th year. Her death was not unexpected, as she was stricken with paralysis in January and had never recovered from that attack. A wide circle of relatives and friends mourn their loss. (This writer has known well Mrs. Edwards from her young . woman hood. She was a lady of refinement, of rare purity of character, gentle, kindly, sympathetic, and a good Christian. She was very hiffhly asteemed and most richly deserved- it. We sincerely sympathize with her bereaved husband and her rela tives. Messenger.) Mrs. Payne, wife of Hon. J. ir.

As a rule, th'ey run for only labout two or three mowths te a year and the salary is so small that well equipped teachers 'oa'n'-not well afford 'to work for such a paltry sum and sne,quently there 1s not much advance in educa tion. A large per cent. iof the chil dhen never attend school longer ttbain the free term and this Is so short -that tne cniiaren scarcely get siariea in, xoe text books before they stop school and when 'they resume their studies at the beginning of the next pufolic 'term the fact is discovered that they have well nigh forgotten what they learned the previous term. These are iact which are well known to all .those Whta pat ronize and teach In the puhllc schools. The truth of the matter is just simply this, our school terms ought to last at least four or six mo'nths ,fn the year and this cannot te ' done unless the money is raised by taxation.

Today's market for securties was marked by the large volume of transactions and the great animation of the dealings as well as by the con tinued strong upward movement of prices. The marked exceptions to -the greatest strength were the active stocks which have been recent leaders of the advance and in which there was heavy realizing today. This realizing was to a large ex tent by the professional element and rep resented simply a transfer of holdings from stocks which have moved freely upward to others that have lagged in the f advance, their calculations evidently being that the advance of the laggards are largely deferred. Such a transfer was made on very large sales from Burlington . at- T,,i nrtUr - l . . v. moved as freely as the other grangers, and Burlington's, relative price has-jcomel up from below that c.f St. Paul to several j points ahead of It. This had led profession al traders to take their profits in Burlington and to transfer their holdings to St. Paul The jump in the price of St. Paul at the opening Invited some sales of the stock by the arbitrage brokers for London ac count, which served as a partial restraint on its advance. Similar manueveres to this, transfer were - executed at other pojnts in the list. Considering the propor tions of this liquidation-the prices of the stpeks affected were singularly firm and steady and even. strong ln some cases. A reactionary tendency was induced at one time in the market generally and the ever watchful bears again believed their opportunity had come and sold stocks. Some prices receding below Saturday's closing level. This was notably the case ln Burlington and Northwestern. The to tal sales of all stocks were nearlj- 435,000 shares, which has not been exceeded nor equaled since the three days following the election last fall. Besides the extra ordinary volume of the transactions, their wide distribution was a notlcable feature. The dealings were dissefcitnated all through the Inactive list, and even the soft coal roads, whose values are at- the lowest ebb as a group of any on the list, came in for a share of attention, Hocking I Coleman and Hines Beckl'eheimer be Valley enjoying a rise from 2 to 3.

The brisk demand apparent for railway and miscellaneous mortgages was reflect ed in substantially higher prices for many Issues on transactions of $2,160,000, of which about $1,000,000 was dealt In duririg the first hour of trading. The purchases of the high grade securities were char acterized by material fluctuations, St. Paul gold 7's and C. C. C. & Indiana reg istering an extreme rise of 4 "per cent. each. The gains elsewhere in the market were less noteworthy. Round amounts of the high priced liens were taken for in vestment and speculative account with considerable confidence, with the foreign interests absorbing offerings of the inter national properties. Governments were quiet, but displayed a firm tone with some I issues Improving slightly. The sales were $2,000. Cotton Futures. - (Special to The Messenger.) New York, June 28. The -dulness in the j cotton market continued today. Liverpool was practically unchanged, but there was j a notable absence of selling orders here and our market opened 1 to 4 points high- er. The trading was terrioiy -restricted and consisted chiefly of purchases of July and August, against large sales of spots made here today. The big spot business and ther absence of any pressure to sell were the only interesting features. Au gust opened at 7.25 advanced to 7.2S, de clined to 7.26 and closed at 7.27 to 7.28, with the tone of the market steady. More rams were reported today in sections where rain was said to be needed, and the crop seems t be doing excellently. The prevailing sentiment among local traders is still bullish. RIORDAN & CO. (By Associated Press.). New York, June 28. Today's cotton market was a very tame affair. Opening quiet, but firm, at an advance of 2 to 4 points, there was a further advance of 2 to 4 points, after which the market par tially reacted and closed steady at a net advance of 3 to 6 points. Speculation was very slack, and the sales reached a total of but 27,300 bales, repeating one or the smallest markets 01 recent times. The early Improvement was based on liberal sales of spot cotton in the English market, in connection with favorable Fall River accounts and encouraging advices River accounts, and encouraging advices from the dry goons districts. ne ad vance was stimulated by private tele grams from the south Atlantic and south ern states, reporting excessive not, ory weather in some localities.

Mr. Morgan has introduced JW the senate a bill to annex Hawaii.1 which is designed, to bring the Sandwich island's under the dominion of - the United States, treaty or no treaty, by March 4, 1898, or earlier if congress so decides. Mr. Morgan says that his bill is in tended to carry the annexation treaty Into execution in case it shall be rati fied by the senate, or to provide for its ratification by the joint action of the tw'o houses in case the senate shall re fuse t(j act. "The treaty," he says, can db ratmeann tms iorm, Dy a ma jority vote in- each of the two houses. thus avoiding the necessity for secur ing iwo-tniras or me senate, as wouiy be required if the matter should be passed upon, by that body alone." So far as procedure goes, Mr. Morgan would seem quite justified in his at tempt. There is nothing in the consti tution which says that countries must be annexed by - treaty. New York Evening Post. It is undoubtedly true that the geo graphical position of Hawaii is such that it concerns the interest of the United States to prevent her forming any connection with any other foreign power. 'And our government announ ced to the world at a very early period that .while Itself scrupulously regard ing the independence of the Hawaiian islands, it could- never consent to see those islands taken possession of by either of the great commercial powers of Europe, nor could tt consent that de mands manifestly unjust, derogatory and inconsistent with a bona fide in dependence should be enforced against the Hawaiian gbvernment. This was the position advanved by Mr. Webster when secretary of state in 1842, and again assumed; by fhim when . he was secretary of state in 1851. Neverthe less, the administration of General Pierce, while stoutly proclaiming that it would be the ! duty of the United States to prevent Hawaii from becom ing the appendage of any other foreign power, looked with a certain favor up on the islands becoming a part of our own (territorial sovereignty. But the quest on of annexation found no favor with any subsequent administration until the administration of General Harri son. Philadelphia Record. ' The threatened manipulation again 6f the p ices of meat by the beef trust is another of those conscienceless and heartless actions by the big combines that arouse and intesify the popular in dignation against these monopolies. .,It matters not to the trusts that the ar ticles upon which the prices are raised by shrewcf manipulations are the food products of 1 the country. As great and far reaching as is the meat business of the United States four men, the "big four," practically control it. They vir tually control the sources of supply and it is possible for them at almost any time to put the price of cattle and hogs down and the prices of dressed meat up. In the present instance, it is stated that the cattle are to be bought, or have already . beenS bought, in large numbers from the western producers, preparatory to tleing up the market and and then by holding the supply back run up the prices of, meats of all kinds. By concerted afion between Armour, Swift, HammoAd and Morris, the scheme is comparatively easy, and the manipulation, of prices both for cat tle and dressed meats a foregone con clusion. ,This is a dismal time, indeed, in which to increase the cost of such an article as meat to the poorer classes of the country. While: thousands of people are in distress these heartless beef trust speculators would render it even more difficult to obtain the neces sary food! Houston Post. Free Pills. Send your 'address to H.
