A quantity of green corn is being shipped from Clinton this week on every morning's express. So far the price has been very well, the price ranging from $1 per crate to $1.75 Some of the com that was shipped early last week was very inferior, though the quality is now much better Another crop that has brought in some nice money to the truckers this season was dewberries. They have brought a very good price. The cold weather, however, has played havoc with this fruit. A quantity of beans were sent to the different markets the past week. To Clean Up.

A seqjel to the gamming cases stirred up by the arrest oi W. R. Smith, the 17-year-old youth who de clared he had gambled away money he had stolen, came this afternoon when Major Von C. Bullard, prosecuting attorney for the recorder’s court, htd a w’arrant sworn tut for R. H. Buchiijg- ham, a director of the state prison, on the charge of allowing boys under 18 years of age to frequent the LaFayette hotel pool room, of which he is the proprietor. Eight young white men from Mt. Olive were brought before Judge Bland in Goldsboro this week charged with gambling, the game being “poker.” After giving the young men a Iccture Judge Bland made the accused men pay the costs ar.d give a $50 bond in each case for good behavior for one year, I also noticed in “The Daily News” rtf a few days ago, -‘four young men of prominent familes” bound over to Guilford County Court, in bonds of $250.00 each to answer charge of trambling playing “poker” and they are likely to serve time in jail or on the roads. I also noticed that the Alderman of the City of Wilmington had voted urminously to close the Drug Stores on Sunday. All of these things have happened in towns and Cities in our State since the “mass meeting” which passed those resolutions unanimously touching on these same abuses in our town, I know that our town officers will be just as vigilant as the officers of the^^e towns.

The xv»iow- ing are some of the achievements we would be depriyed of Benjanr in Frank lin’s invaluable service in France would have been lost to his country; Gland- stone wouU not- have becomt* the “grand old man” of England and for eleven years have held the prime min- istershid, and Henry Clay’s omnibus bill to aver the battle on slavery would not have been conceived In thp field of sciei ce notable los es would have been recorded. Galileo would not have made the wonderful discovery of the i/.oon’s diurnal and monthly vibrations, not woultJ he have written his most valuable bo/>k, Dia logue of the New Science. Specer and Darwin also would not have left us some of their best work. Priceless art treasures would have to be taken from the galleries of the world. Titian worked until he was 90, and his hand never lost its ning. Hopkins worked skill until he was past 90. Corot’s Matih was painted aft*^r he was 70. In music. Verdi’s Othello, Ave Maria, StL- bat Mater and others would not have been written. In literature’it is astonishing to not* what men of 70 and over have con tributed; Franklin's inimitable Auto biography, Landor’s Imaginary Cor.- versations, Guvot’s History of France, Irving’s Life ■ of Washington and the second part of Goeth’s Faust. The liot might be extended almost indefi nitely. If now we cut off the years between 60 and 70, the loss to the world would be still more marked. Darwin’s De scent of Man would not have been written. Michelangelo would not have painted the great frescoes in the Sis- tin Chapel nor Turner The Slave Ship and the Fighting Temeraire. Wagner would not have composed Parsifal nor Newman have written his \pologia. We would have tj do without Carlyle’s Frederick the Great and Swedenborg’s Arcana Celestia, Froude’s lives of Cae sar a.id Carlyle, and Ibsen’s Hedda Gabler and other plays. Is it necessary to say more? If the impossible should come to pass and the works of the veterans be subtract- ed- from the sum of human achieve ment, the world would not be where it is today. ■ I vwmiiig. ±iic laLcst novelty m wom- bunday | ^^ggg^g jg represented by robaa of Mrs. A.

In Next Weeks Honor Roll! We hope those to whom we have sent bills for anbscription to the Leader, will not think we did it for fun.

Generation after generation of American schoolboys have declaimed “Spartacus to the Gladiators” or “Re- gulus to the Carthaginians,” and prob ably never stopped to wonder what stenographer among the ancients took down these celebrated remarks. As a matter of fact, both were the work of a New England clergyman*, Elijah^Kal- logg. “Spartacus” was written while he was a theological student at An dover in 1842 for the rhetorical exer cises of his class. “Regulus” was written three years later for a fellow student to speak in a prixe competi tion. What college youth of these days could write such forceful orations? These have never been surpassed and ill some schools it has become neces sary to bar them from the list at prize speaking competitions, so inva- rialy do they carry off the prizes. Of all the work* of Elijah Kellogg, these alone remain known Yet he wrote thirty \^holesome books for boys, some of them talej of the woods and some of scnool, and was for years an eloquent pastor at the Seaman’s Church in Boston. He might have be come a Talmage or a Beecher or a Brooks and gained fame in a more fashionable pulpit, but clung to the life work he had chosen. What id the cause of pellegra? The question seems to be giving the scien tists as much trouble as that other question, what is whiskey?, gave the governmental authorities at Washing ton. When the disease was first dis covered, the theory was advanced that it was due to the toxic qualities in meal made from moldy or spoiled com. Another theory, put forward by Dr. Sambon, of the London School of Tro pical Medicine, is that the malady is occasioned by the bite of an insect. Recently Professors Scala and Alex- andrini, of Rome, Italy, promulgated still another theory to the effect that the cause is to be found in drinking water in which there is flint stone in colloidal solution. Now we are told in some quarters that the disease has its root In heredity. From Spartanburg, South Carolina, comes announcement that the Thomp- son-McFadden Commission, engaged in the work ot investigation in that lo cality, has decided to examine into this latest theory, arid that, in this un dertaking, it will have the assistance of Dr Elizabeth Muncey, of the Eu- ^ genics Record office. Cold Springs; Harbor, Long Island, which institution is supported by Mrs. E. H. Harriman and Mr. John D. Rockefeller. That anything will come of thi«» investiga tion is hardly to be expected^ as the members of the Commission are re-1 ported to take but little bright and flexible as pilk. The first Jady to wear a glass dress was of royal rank. It was of a delicate ^ade of lavender, shot with pink and its pecu liar si ee I reminded observers of the sparkle of diamon 1 ciust. The Russians are manufacluring a fabric from the fiber of a filamentous stone from the Siberian mine.s which is said to bo of so durable a nature that it is practically indestructible. The material is soft to the touch ai.d * pliable in the extreme and when soiled haf.only to be placed in a fire to be made absolutely clean. Iron cloth is largely used today by tailors ey r - where for the purpose of ma’u’ng the collars of coats set property. Ihis cloth is manufactured from steel wool and has the appearance of having been woven from norsehair. “Wool” not the product of sheep, is being utilized abroad for men’s cloth ing. This kind is known as “limestone wool” and is made in an electric fur nace.- Powdered limestone, mixed with certain chemicals, is thrown :nto the furnace and after passing through a furious air blast it is tossed out as fluffy white wool. When it comes from the furnace thp wool is dyed and made into lengths like cloth. A pair of trousers or a coat made of this mate rial can not, it is claimed, be burned or damaged by grease and ii as flexible as cloth made of tJie ordinary sheep's wool. Paper clothes were worn by the Japanese troops during the war with Russia and they were four.d to be very- serviceable and much warmer than those of cloth. Paper dr3Ssing gowns, bath robes and similar articles of attire are now being turned out by the cart load in many European countries. The paper of which they are made is of the “blotter” variety. A Joke With a Point. Several cities in North Carolina have just discovered that they arc • paying their counties a great deal more money than they get back in the way of taxes. The joke about this is that they have been doing it for years, but have just made the discovery Now that it has been made, what are they going to do about it? As long as the country has more voles than the towns the practice will be kept up. There is no justice iti to what-ever; it is a hold up pure and simple. It,s a question of votes. When members of the legis lature find that the cities in their coun ties can defeat them they will agree to do justice, not before.— Greensdoro Record.
