The little diversion and recreation that the women could get through this means would not eudiinger their loyalty to the home, but on the contrary, would increase its eflirieuoy. There is no grind on earth like the borne tread mill of the average womau, and nothing in the lives and work of the men ho exhaustive, so unrelieved by diversion, nothing so killing, not even ditching or running a news paper.

In the course of a recent editorial in the Observer it was stated that "the negro gets the same amount per capita for the public schools as the white children." Kev. Z. A. Dockery of Mooresville writes to know if this statrmeut is "literally true," and adds that if it is true the apportionment must be "very low; in some cases possibly less than a dollar." The negro child of school age gets identically the same amount as the white child. In Mecklenburg eonnty the apportion ment for the prescut yeur is f'J.lO. We do not know the figures for the other counties, but whatever they are the negro shares equally with the white. Charlotte Oliservcr. The Observer is still iu error. The money is not apportioned jer capita, neither to while uor colored schools. The idea is to make all (he schools run au equal length of time: so while the colored schools run as long as the whites, the teach ers are not paid so much. Hasty Found Guilty. George Hasty was found guilty at OafTucy, 8. C, last week for the killing of actor Dennett, not being tried for the death of Davison. The jury recommended mercy and the prisoner was seutenced to the H'n iteutiary for life. While the trial was in progress, Mr. J. C. McNeil of the Charlotte Observer inter viewed Hasty, as follows: "Are you tired of this tiling!" I asked George. "You dou't seem tired." "No," said he. "I don't mind it in the court bonse at all. It's in the jail. They give me things I don't like to eat, aud I have to move and sleep in an eight-foot space. I in awiul tired 01 ttmt."

Even the niau from Missouri will say that be is from the Kast Speaking of the people of Missouri, there is a say ing current in this section that is KiipiKieed to illustrate to some ex teut the character of the people of that Commonwealth. It is this: "I atu from Missouri, yon must show me." It is a pretty safe rule to follow, I suspect, when there are so many grafters abroad in the land, yet it is rather hard to insist uon au ocular demonstration and refuse to put any faith iu our fellowman. A long while ago I learned that the most elegant way to projouuee North Carolina is to put the accent and stress upon every syllable of the word aud I always pronounce it in this manner, for thus pro pounced it sounds well and makes a nioet fitting climax for the North Carolina politician's speech; but everybody I find don't pronounce it correctly. Meetiug a gentleman, some time ago, he asked me where I am from. 1 replied "from North Car o li na." "Noth Ker-liu er, eh!" said be. Mr. Kditor, what do you suppose I did to that fellow who would bring the fair uaiue of our Commonwealth into disrepute! I did uot do anything to him, for be is a lot bigger than I am. so I just suffured it No other portion or the t inted States is so uu-American as New Mexico. Only about one-third of this town is American, the remain der of the population having in their veins the blood of the ancient Moors, the Spaniards aud the In diau chieftains peoples once dis tinguished for physical courage and chivalry. The preseut popula tion is sadly defirieut iu these ad mirable traits of their ancestors. Lacking independence of character, they would follow blindly the lead ership of any unscrupulous dema gogue who would essay to lead them. Now, I believe iu the sur vival of the "unfitcst" The Mexican people are distin guished for their hospitality and politeness. I have been informed that the poor man, who has only one bed, will surrender that to the traveler who asks his hospitality. Then they are exceedingly polite. I have observed tw Mexicans meet on the street, wnen mey wouiu shake bauds warmly, chat for a few minutes and then as they were ready to pass on they would shake hands again. Some fifty years ago there was the most ardent affectiou manifested between visitors aud guests in Santa Fe, A man visit VQ II LIFE' That's what a prominent druggist said of Scott's Emulsion a short time .

The action of Scott's Emulsion is no more of a secret than the composition of the Emul sion itself.

The bell rings oftener than any whertrflse it seems. It has been felicitously said, "There is only one uau in Sauta Fe that works: the sexton at the Cathedral." Asa rule the Mexican woman wears a long b'ack shawl, which she brings np over her head, thereby render ing auv other headgear unneces sary. She ran upon short notice full into the procession that so con stantly goes tramping to the Cath edral. Beginning nearly three hundred years ago aud continuing until just a lew years ago, the Governor's Old Palace in Sauta Ke was the seat ot political power in this part of the Southwest There bave bceu MtiSpanish governors, 11 Mexicans, 1 Pueblo Indian aud 21 American ti9 in all. Certainly uot iu Ameri ca, if iu the wide world, have a number of nieu so widely different iu character, ruled from the same building. There was fighting and clashing for the ruling power often, aud not uutil the Americans took control was permanent order estab lished. Iu fact, the first American governor (Iient) was assaNiuated. The lives of some of the Ameri can governors read like romance aud illustrate the saying that truth is stranger thuu tictiuu. One of the most notable cases is that ol David Merry weather. He was born iu Virginia. lieing adventurous in disposition, he came West aud sent three yearn iu the employ of the American rur Trading Company. He was once sent out with a party of Pawnee Indians to otieu trade with New Mexico, toexi-hange furs for bullion, and to secure privileges of hunting and trapping on the streams. As he proceeded west he was attacked by New Mexico scouts, the most of the Indians were killed, young Slurryweatlier with hU negro boy were made prisoners, curried to Sauta Fe aud cast into a filthy prison adjoining the Old Governor's Palace. At that time there was a little friction iu the diplomatic relations between the L lilted States aud Spam, so Merry weather was suspected of being a spy of I ucle Bum. Ju a snort tune the unpleasantness lietwecti the I'uited States and Spain having been settled, Merry weather was set at liberty. He aud the negro Isiy was given each one mule and au old gun aud they set out across the snow-clad mountains to reach the nearest American settlement, atioiil one thousand miles distant. They were guided by the sun iu the day time and by the moon and stars at night. Coming to a cave, they de cided to make ramp until spring when they would continue their journey to the A merican settlement To while away the tune Merry- weather fashioned a stone like a man's face, upon which he stretched piece of skin. When the skiu was dried he took it off and cut holes for eyes, nose and mouth, thus making a very creditable mask. When finished he laid it away In the cave. One day later nine strange Indians came to me cave and wanted to examine every thing in it. He had made a parti tiou with skins, cutting off a sep arate room, and the Indian wanted to see in that room. He told them he kept bis Great Medicine in that room and he would go in ami con suit him and let them know ifthey could see him. He went in and arranged to give the Indians a good fright He fixed the skin upon tne poiut of a rock and placed a light ed candle within it aud returned to the other apartment He told them if they should see fire and smoke coming out of nose, eyes and mouiu, it was a sure sign that Ureal Medi ciue was very angry and for them to look out for themselves. He would take them in one at a time. He led one Indian in, who seeing the light streaming through the eyes, the mouth and nose of the mask, took It to uiean mat the Great Spirit was mad and sIkiuI to destroy them all, so he took to his heels, yelling like a demon, aim the rest of his comrades followed at his heels. Ily this simple ruse Mr. Merry west her no doubt saved his life. However, he thought it not best to remain in the cave, as the Indiana would no doubt report snd great numbers of them would come to see him. So he and the negro boy set out for the American set tlement, which they finally suc ceeded in reaching in safety. Later on there came a time when a Governor was wanted for this territory, and as Mr. Merry weather had proven himself a man of cour age and of resources and being ao ioaiuted with the people and coun try, President Pierce in 1853 ap- lndlllkains dtMfMlll I scon k BOWSE fjjlfpihtt 40 PoHSUH.T.

The Wonderful Ben Tillman Wk have long regarded lien Till man as one of the most remarkable men iu public life. He has Ixi-u sHikeu of its au uneducated uiau; there was never a greater mistake. His command of the I'.nglish lan guage is wonderful, and we have ofteu wondered how he secured it. The folio ing story from the Char lotte Chronicle tells: The placing of the railroad rate bill into the hands of Senator II. K. Tillman has done more to bring that peculiar, but altogether bril liant iersoiiage into public view than any one of the single acts of his somewhat stormy political ca reer. And it is serving to clear the atmosphere around him and give the public a Is-ttcr view of him. Tillman was launched as a storm petrel. He came 111 on the crest of a teniMstuoiis wave that swept away many of South Caro lina s cherished traditions, and the people of the old regime still curse him; but it must Is- admitted that Tillman wrought a git at work lor his State, educationally aud indus trially. He will never outlive the prejudice of many South (arolma stiple, but there aie those w ho see iu him more 01 man man tievu. And now that he is more promi nently before the public tliati at any previous time iu his career, the people want to know more alsmt him. We find an interesting sketch of him iu the New York Sim, from which we quote: "His father died when he was but two yeHisold, but he had an uncle w ho took an inter est in li i in as he grew up, and Im--uueathed to him his large mid well chosen library. From the time that he received it, Mr. Tillman Is-came a student, and it is said that he is now one of the Im-sI read men iu Congress. Not long ago be was compelled to take morphine to ease pain iu his throat, upon which several operations were performed, and while under the intlueiiee id the drug he lay hack in his Is'd and repeated line alter line and stanza after stanza from Byron, Keats, Shelley, Tennyson, Shukesieare and other F.nglish poets stanzas which he had not read for perhaps twenty years. Mr. Tillman never had the advantage of a college ed ucation. He was fourteen years of age when lite war iM-iween ine States broke out, and was sent to an academy to prepare for college, but an alisccNS formed in the back of his left eye and cut ircly dost roy ed it At the age of seventeen lie enlisted in the artillery corps at Atlanta, but was never able to go to the front on account of his ill ness. As soou as he recovered his health he took charge of his moth er s larire estate, a larm 01 000 acres, and this be managed until he was elected Governor in 1 . He married at twenty and his fel low student of his farm and all his affairs was his young wife. There are several children, the oldest son being his private secretary. Mr. Tillman did not hold any ollice un til he waselccted Governor of South Carolina. Five years prior to that he was scarcely known outside of his immediate section. The first public sicech he ever made w as at a gathering of farmers at Bennetts ville, in 1k,s.-(, when he was thirty eight years old. But the si-ch attracted the attention of the whole State, brought him into immediate prominence, and since then he has lieen a conspicuous figure iu South Carolina all airs and the leading politician of the State."
