THE N. & 1. COLLEGE.
The State Normal and Industrial
College is a great institution for North
Carolina, and it9 benefit to the young
womanhood of the state under the
masterly and efficient management o'
Dr. Mclver cannct be over estimated.
The following extract from a letter in
the Charlotte Observer of today, writ
ten by a lady who personal y inspected
the institution, is copied cheerfully:
"It goes without saying that the
wotren of a country fix its social and
moral standards; remembering this, a
visit to Greensboro assures me that at
last North Carolina is making long
6trides in the march of progress "An
educated man may be the father of
illiterate children, but the children of
educated women are never illiterate."
This is the basic principle operating at
the Normal Ccllege, and education
there means fitting for life. When a
man of Dr. Mclver's ability and bal
ance and experience gives his whole
heart and mind to a calling, the result
can't be other than good, and to the
Normal College not only has Dr. Mc
lver given himself entirely, but his
large and superior faculty are right
arms to him. The three courses of
study, normal, commercial and do
mestic science, are comprehensive and
the instruction in each is superior.
The students are elevated by familiar
ity with the best literature in English,
the modern languages and the classics
and they go from Tennyson to the
cooking school, from Moliere to the
sewing classes, from Livy to primary
teaching, every graduate being re
quired to do practical teaching under
the supervision of experienced school
directors.
"A student who cannot pay the pit
tance charged for board and laundr:
can earn that by serving in the dining
room, and to the honor of the richer
girls, let it be known that this service
makes no difference whatever in their
social status; let the work be faithfully
done, that is all that is necessary the
honor and dignity of labor are noblv
recognized. I saw girls from humble
mountain homes, who had "washed
the dishes and set the table," going to
recitations in literature and mathe
matics along with their friends from
the best strain of blood in easterr
Carolina, and when the hundreds of
bright faces were gathered around the
weu-miea taoies, i cou a not guess
which girls had served them so beauti
fully. Now is there any limit to the
good such life is doing in North Caro
lina? I h onestly believe it is incalcu
lable, and I honestly believe it to be
your duty and mine, to speed the work
of the college. As women born to love
North Carolina, let us help the future
women of the state by enlacing this
great Normal College work at once
More buildings are needed .gymnasium ,
library (many books are now kept
boxed for lack of room on the library
shelves), dormitories and money for
many purposes. Those of us who can
not give money, can help in other
ways. Induce outs'ders to go and see
for themselves as I have done; to see
is to be convinced that the hands of
Dr. Mclver should be upheld by gifts
and appropriations for his work until
there is room for every girl who has
prepared herself to enter the college,
and who strives to uplift her people
I am ashamed of the stigma of ill it
eracy which hitherto has so justly
1 T . , . ,.
rested upon rorin Carolina. JLet us
wipe It out."
Bryan's enemies seem to have dis
covered in him the irrepressible ele
ments of Banquo's ghost. The fol
lowing extract from an editorial which
appeared yesterday in the Charlothe
Observer which paper, incidentally,
is the most potent adversary the Ne
braskan has in North Carolina is
very interesting for its affected tinc
ture of despair:
But what is all this talk about re
tiring Bryan, anyhow? A week ago
they were sidetracking him in the in
terest of Governor Stone, of Missouri.
He has more ability, more popularity,
more magnetism and more consecra
tion to the new dispensation than any
body in the push. He is not a whit
wilder than Arkansaw Jones himself,
nor is he as crazy as Altgeld, Coin
Harvey or that set. Upon the whole,
if we are to have 16 to 1 and free riot
in the platform next year and we are
--we would rather see the colonel than
anybody nominated on it.
A report is in circulation at Pekin
that Li Hung Chang is about to return
to power. When thintrs eet dull in
China they invariably go and dig up'
old Li Hung Chang. j
The monitor Monadcock, lying on
upon the waves like a huge black tur
tle, la rather a dangerous customer to
be aroused. Monday she was an
chored peacefully a good distance from
the town of Paraque, attending to her
own business and apparently wrapped
in slumber. The insurgents, who shoot
at anythicg they see, let fly at her a
st-jrm of musket-balls. The old hulk
opened one eye, lazily turned around,
let fly a few shells which more than
half destroyed the town and annihi
lated a large Pr centage of its ihabi-
tants, and unconcernedly went back to
sleep.
The Florida Times-Union and Citi
zen gets off the following: ''The tourist
is rapidly finding out that April la the
sweetest of all the Florida months.
Resonant with the song of the southern
nightingale.the Spanish mockingbird,
and fragrant with the bloom of flowers,
lulled to the awakening of spring by
the softest of w nds." And the Raleigh
Morning Post, which we had hereto
fore respected, adds that the atmos
phere "is also sonorous with the dulcet
note9 of the revivified alligator, ju9t
emergirg from his winter's nap."
The selection of Hon. A. M. ScaleB,
of this city, as president of the new A.
& M. college board.has received most
favorable comment at the hands of the
state press. .Yesterday's Wilmington
Messenger has the following, which is
brief but tells a big truth:
The Agricultural and Mechanical
College, Greensboro, is to be congrat
ulated upon the election of Mr. A M.
Scales as president of the new boa d.
It could not be improved upon.
The dispatches say that the Prince
of Wale9 has grown careless in dress
and is no longer "King of Fa9hionj."
It is presumed that his time and his
voice are given-principally to Wails
since, at the continued good health of
his mother, he has abandoned the hope
of managing her affairs.
Olnry for President.
Milwaukee, Wis., March 28 The
Journal today says: "That a move
ment is under way to make ex Secre
tary of State Richard Olney the Demo-
c-atic candidate for president f next
year is revealed in a letter from Bos
ton to The Journal. General Olney's
campaign is bised on the theory that
he is in favor of imperialism, while
opposed to annexation.
"The writer of the letter referred to
is very prominent in democratic poli
tics and he says the movement in Mr.
Olney's favor is well on its way It is
urged in his behalf that he, though a
gold democrat in 1396, did not make
himself obnoxious to the free silver
element and that on the expansion
question he would be an available
candidate, being opposed to the an
nexation of disant islands to the ter
ritory of the United S'.ates. Mr. Olney's
views on the acquisition of foreign
territory are very pronounced. He be
lieves in the United States striving
with the other nations of the world for
commercial greatness, but not for po
litical extension."

IN CAMP AT SAVANNA!.
The First North Carolina? RifIn8nM-
Embarked Yesterday.
Savannah, Ga., March 2 The FirBt
Regiment North Carolina volunteers
came up to Savannah from quarantine
this morning aboard tne transport
Vigilancia. The boys came ashore
and swarmed over the city tonight,
glad to be once more "in the States."
They are for the most part in excellent
health and spirits, though anxious to
be mus'ered out. . Some members of
the regiment are sick, but hot dan
gerously. Though bo serious complaint of
their fare while in Cuba was heard,
the men have naturally grown tired of
army rations, and tonight the Savan
nah restaurants and cafes are freely
patronized by them. On the way out
to Camp Onward, your correspondent
c ime upon several by the wayside with
paper bags filled with eatables which
they had purchased in the city, in
which they were intensely Interested.
About three weeks will be required
for the muster out of the command.

would have to be declared off tempor

the recent fight with Choynskl. McCoy
does not feel physically prepared to
meet Sharkey, Brady says. He wishes
to take on more weight before meeting
the sailor.
Oh, the Pain of
Rheumatism!
Rheumatism often causes the most in
tense suffering. Many have for rears
vainly sought relief from this disabling
disease, and are to-day worse off than
ever. Rheumatism is a blood disease,
and Swift's Specific is the only cure, be
cause it is the only remedy which can
reach such deep-seated diseases.
A few Tears ago I was taken with Inflamma
tory Rheumatism, which became so Intense
that I was for weeks unable to walk. I tried
several prominent physi
cians and took their treat
ment faithfully, but was
unable to get the slight,
est relief. In fact, my eon.
dltlon seemed to grow
worse, the disease spread
over my entire body, and
from November to March
&kE5fVc 1 suffered agony. I tried
TCTSa ft PVmny pateiit medicines.
tmt none reuevea me.
Upon the advice of a
friend I decided to trr

lyzed the remedy, and pronounced it free of
potash or mercury. I felt so much better after
taking two bottles, that I continued the rem
ry, and in two months I was cured completely,
be cure was permanent, for I have never since

times exposed to damp and cold weather.
