Tkey Cant Be Changed at the Mar Whim of tha Innkatpar. -j i uur itriiisu cousins evince cu rious and contradictory ideas wit reference to proper names. Otli cially they exhibit all their nation: conservation touching the retention of names in some circumstances; in diriduallv they indulge in all man ner of license in the bestowal of names upon their offspring. England is one of the freest coun tries in the world, a country where the rights of individuals arc safe guarded in the fullest measure, yet in sonic details those rights arc cu riously curtailed. Once an innkeep er of South Hunts wished to alter the name of his establishment from the Duke of York to the Panther, In this country the method woul do to laKC aown tue old sign anil hang up a new one,, hut there the case was different. The distinguished naval officer who acted as chairman of the au thoritative committee demanded the reason for so sudden and violent change. He was informed that the applicant owned another inn named the Duke of York in a neighboring town and that the identity of names caused some confusion in business. This would seem to he a satisfac tory excuse, but the chairman held that it was discourtesy to the Duke of York to supersede him by i brute. The application was refused The host of the Alma, a metro politan inn, wished to take advan tage of a passing wave of popular interest and to call lus hostelry the Jashoda. Out of regard for French sensibility permission was curtly refused. A similar fate befell the request to change the name of another inn from the lloval Oak to the Rad- stook. In this case, the chairman of the committee took the ground that Lord Itadstock, us un eminent philanthropist and a Christian man, rmphr nhjvt th xi. e f ivi name or a house in which liquor was sold. This argument carried the day. Thus the same authority held it to bo discourteous to a philan thropic nobleman to give his name to a "licensed house" and discour teous to the heir to the throne to re move his name from a licensed house. Chicago Record-IIewld. A Tip For tha Anglar. There had been an incessant downpour of rain from the early hours of the morning, and still the angler sat on the bank of the river. Doubtless he was fishing for his tea, but success did not attend his ef forts, and his only consolation was a small eel about the size of a worm. Suddenly a drenched urchin made his appearunce. "Caught much?" 86ked the boy. Can t you see," impatiently re plied the angler. "Yer'll catch nothing there, mis ter." No reply. After a slight pause, "1 know where you can catch some, though." ''Where?'' eagerly inquired the ardent angler. "Under the bridge," replied tho boy. "How do you know?" '"Cause they alius go there to keep out of tho rain." The angler got up to stretch him elf, and tho youth made a hasty re treat. London Ideas. A Fiiharman'a Proposal. "My love," whispered an ardent angler, "you hold first 'plaice' in my heart! Although I 'flounder' about in. expressing myself, my sole wish is that you will save me from becoming a 'crabbed old bach elor. I shall stick to you closer than a limpet;' from you a 'wink'lT be the road to guide me. Together we will 'skate over life 'rocks,' and when I look at your hand beside me I shall say to myself, 'Fortune was mine when I put "herring" there!' " The lady lowered her eyes in sweet confusion and murmured, 'Tass the salt!" London Mail. Moat Paculiar. Canvasser Are you single 1 Man at the Door Yes. "Why, the people next door told me you were married." "So I am." "Yet you told me just sow you were single.' "Yes; so I did." "Well, what is the matter with you?" "Nothing, sir. My name is Sin gle and I'm married. Good day, sir." Death of Mrs. A. C. Johnson. Mrs. Anna Eugenia Johnson, wife of Esq. A. C. Johnson, died at her home here last W ednesday afternoon.

She joined the Methodist church in 1882 during the pastorate of Rev, P. J. Carraway, and ever lived a life that squared with the professions she had made, A devoted wife and mother, a warm and generous friend, a perfect neighbor, she will be deep- iy missed by those who knew her so welt and loved her.

We request all the public school eachers of the county to meet at the graded school building, Monroe, at 0 o clock, baturday, November 12th. We want to meet every white teach er who is teaching or expects to teach in the public schools of Union county this year. The work of that day will consist mainly in the out- ming and discussion of plans and measures to be adopted and used in the prosecution of our work. We hope every school will be ready to begin work by November 15th. Attention was called some time ago, to the matter of putting the school house in order before the schools would begin, and I want to to begin, that their first duty will be to have that work done i. e..the work of general cleaning and charge the time to the county at regular salary rates for which they have contracted to teach, and after ward begin the regular work of the school. Committeemen and parents should see that the surroundings are healthful and that the water the children are to use is free from im purities. Very truly, It. N. Nisbet, Co. Supt. Big Funderburk Reunion. There was a big reunion of the l?.inin.k.iv . T..4 111. last Saturday. It was estimated that 350 Funderburks were present and 150 more of other names who are akin. The Funderburk clan is a big one and the men and women of that name have occupied a large place in the history of this section, both of North and South Carolina. Mr. Vann Funderburk and Mr. W. E. Funder burk and family of Monroe attended the reunion and report a great meet ing. The dinner table was 250 feet long and loaded down. One feature oi the entertainment was a singing match between the old Spnng Hill choir and the present one, Qoinr to Buy Cattle. Messrs. W. E. Funderburk and N. B. Ayers leave tomorrow for the mountains of North Carolina and Tennessee to buy cattle. Mr. Ayers will buy a car load of fat beeves, Mr. Funderburk will buy cattle of the beef strain to breed on his farms, He will buy a car load for himself and a car load for Messrs. M. A.

The whole tendency now is toward larcer instead or sma ler districts .... . . r. . Small schools are much more costly in proportion to the number of du- pils accommodated than large ones and are generally lacking in emei- ency. Tb." er-ra it should be the policy of au concerned to consolidate rather than divide districts. Instead of trying to move the school house to our doors, we should be trying to devmo some means of takine the children to the school. Instead of making more schools, we should be trying to make those we have better and more efficient. In stead of building more school houses on new sites, we should be trying to build better houses on and improve the sites already established. Let us continue to vote special tax lines, unless we consolidate districts. Respectfully, R. N Nisbet, Co. Supt. Death of Mrs. E. A. Jerome. Mrs. E. A.

Thus have we had the four sea sons autumn, winter, spring and summer in one short day. Modificationa of Iron. Add carbon to pure iron, and it becomes steel. Add a hydrocarbon to iron, and steel itself becomes so erties are not recognizable. Thus steel may be soft as pure iron. Add hydrogen in varying quantity, and it has the quality of resilience, us in tho watch spring, or the quality of tenacitv, as in the knife or razor, or may be given nearly all the hard ness of a diamond, as in a file. With steel at a low temperature, from 400 to 450 degrees Fahrenheit, edge tools are produced and color in the yellow shades; from 500 to 525 de crees various sorts or springs are produced, color blue, while by heat ing iron to whiteness and plunging it into water, which is mainly com posed of hvdrogen, files are pro duced or forms even harder.
