Of significance to North Carolin la the following, indicating a ear pricing activity in mill bcilding in the North and a Rratitying leader ship in that respect in North Caro Iina : "A record prepared by the Amer ican Wool and Cotton Reporter shows that textile mill construction during tin first six months of the year 1901 was considerably create than the last half of tie preceding year. The number of bouthero mills constructed during that time has shown little change compared with the number built during the last half of last year. In the North however, the increase in the num her of new mills built or proposed has been remarkable. During the first half of the year 1901 the nura bt-r of new mille constructed or that are iutendod to be constructed amounts to 201, a gain of 37 over the last six months of 1900. Uf the 2G1 mille, 113 are devoted to the manufacture of cotton, 35 to wool. 58 to knit goods, hosiery, etc and 25 to miscellaneous purposes, such as silk, linen and into manu factoring and bleaching, finishing, etc. Iho number of woolen mills constructed shows the greater in crease. Relatively speaking, there was an increase of 250 per cent. compared with the nn in tier erected during tho latter part of 1900. The knitting industry is also increasing rapidly. Our knit goods are being exported in larger amounts eacli year. In Germauy, and more ex tensively in England, goods made by American manufacturers can be found in the very contresof the ho sitry manufacturing towns and prices, ne a rule, are in favor of the Amorican product. In tho cotton manufacturing industry the demand has not warranted as many new mills as in other years. Yet since the first of the year the number of new mills constrctcd only lacke ono of being equal to tho number erect ed during the latter part of last year. A table gives in detail the location of the 201 new textile enterprises, and shows that North Carolina leads with 45 mills, Georgia comes next with 30 mills, South Carolina rep resents 31, Alabama 27, Pennsyl vania 17, Massachusetts 12, New York, Rhode Island, Tennessee and Virginia 10 each ; Texas 9, Connect icut and Mississippi 7, Arkansas 5, Michinan 3, Delaware, Florida, Kansas, Kentucky and Maine 2 each ; California, Colorado, Indiana, Louisiana, Maryland, Minnesota, Montana, Ohio, Oregon, Utah, Ver mont and Canada 1 each." ' Keeping: Up Appearances. The1 peTty smallnoss of aristocratic paupers is painfully illustrated by an English correspondent. When au English aristocrat is poor he is quite hopelessly poor, despite a lineage that may run back to Wil liam the Conqueror, and good King Alfred, and Hengist, and Horn, and all the other famous progeni tors. The poor aristocrat can't earn his own living, he can't go into trade, and he cant seek a situation. At no matter what price is self- denial and personal humiliation he must keep up appearances, ibis is how it happens that a noted man milliner of Iiondon observed at the Ascot races several oi his handsomest and most expensive hats adorning the heads of certain noble ladies who bad ordered them merely on approval. By asimple little exertion it is thus possible to have a new hat, and a fine one, too, on each day of the races. Of course the hats are returned next day, and of course the milliner has no possible way of getting recompense. Of all the varied dramas on life s broad stage there is none quite so humorously tragic as that entitled "Keeping Up Appearances." Cleveland 1 lain Dealer. FOR TORPID LIVER.

Tuffs Pi s A MEMORABLE SUMMER Designated "Eighteen Hundred and Starve-to Death" Ice Formed In Every Month None of the Crops Matured. There are fow persons now living who recollect the year IS1(, sa the Boston Globe, but European and American data represent it as utv ing been extraordinarily phenome nal in almost every particular. In New England tbe year went by tue name of "eighteen bundled and starve to death," and the sum mer months are known in history as "tbe cold summer of 1810, so m markable was the temperature. January of that year was mild, so ranch so that for days tbe people al lowed tbeir ores to go out, as art ill cial beat made tbe houses uncom fortably warm This pleasant weather whs broken by a severe eold snap in f ebmary but this low temperature passed in tew days and a much warmer con dition, similar to that of the month previous, set in March "came iu like a lion, but went out like a lamb." There was nothing unusual in the climatic con ditiona of tbe month which differed from those generally experienrd in this disagreeably windy season. April was the advance guard of this strange freak in temperature. The early days of the month were warm apd bright, but as it drew to a close tbe cold increased until it ended in a very low temperature, ac companied bv ice and snow. May was a bitter disappointment. True, buds came, but so did the frost, and one night it laid all vegetation a blackened waste. Corn whs killed, and the fields had to be made ready tor another plautiug, but the peo ple's astonishment was indeed com plete when they found ice formed on the pools and ponds to the thick ncss of half an inch. June, "the month of roses," was this year a mouth of ice and desola tion. r rost, ice and snow were com mon. Almost every green thing that had taken advantage of a few warm days to develop was killed, and tho various kinds of fruits wore nearly all destroyed. One day in this usually quite warm month the beautiful snow fell to a depth of 10 nches iu V trmont, seven inches in Maine and three inches in Massachu setts and Central New York. July was accompanied by frost nd ice, and tho60 who colebrated the "glorious" Fourth "not wisely but too well" found an abundance of ice handy for immediate use tho next morning. It was not very thick not more than ono sixteenth of an nch but it was ico, and it caused the good people of Now England, iew 1 ork and eoiiiu sections of Pennsylvania to look gravo. That month Indian corn wbb destroyed in all but the most favored locations, and but a small quantity escaped. buroly August would put an end to such cold weather, but the farm ere, as well as hotel proprietors, were doomed to disappointment. The midsummer month was if possible more cheerless than the days already passed. Ice formed even thicker than it had done in July and corn was so badly frozen that it was cnt for fodder, and almost every green plant in this country, aa well as in Europe, was frozen. September was ushered in bright and warm, and for two weeks the now almost frozen people began to thaw out. It was the mildest weath er of tbe year, but just as tbe inhab itants got fairly to appreciate it old Boreas and Jack Frost came along and whitened aud hardened every thing in tbeir path. On the lGth ice formed a quarter of an inch thick, and winter clothing that had been laid away for a few days was again brought forth and wrapped round shivering humanity. Papers received from England stated that the year 1816 would be remembered by the generation then living as one long, dreary year in which there was no summer. What little corn ripened in the unexposed States was worth almost its weight in silver, and farmers were compelled to provide themselves with corn grown in 1815 for the seed they need in the spring of 1817. This seed never cost so much before, being extremely difficult to get even at $5 per bushel. By this time the people had given up all hopes of again seeing the flowers bloom or hearing tbe birds sing, and began to make prepara tions for a hard winter. October kept up the reputation of its predecessors, as there was scarce ly a day that the thermometer reg istered higher than 30 degrees. November was also extremely cold and sleighing was good tbe first week of the month. December, strange to relate, was the mildest and most comfortable month of the entire year, a condi tion which led many people to be lieve that the seasons had suddenly ALWAYS KEEP ON HAND fPaitvKittevi Thara la no kind of pain for ache.

Tbe Philadelphia Press has an interesting hot weather story sent in by its liarrisburg correspondent. It is such a cold matter-of -fact story, assuming as it docs withoot question that $1,000,000 was distributed as a bribery fund among the members of tbe last legislature, that one may read it on a swoltering day with tbe same equanimity as he would feel in readings summer novel. Ibis is the first paragraph of the story : Over f 1,000,000 was corruptly distributed among a number of the members of the Pennsylvania Legis lature during tho session which clof .J last Thursday. It was used to influence votes in tbe selection of the Speaker of the House and to secure the passage of the second class city "ripper" bill, the Phila delphia fifth court bill : the Phila delphia Board of Revision ot Taxes "ripper, and the railway franchise grab bill. Aftera matror of fact statement of the prices paid for votes on the various machine bills before the Legislature the article says : 1 ho higliept price promised for a single vote for Speaker, of which any statement has been made by tho bribe offerer or the persons who received tho offer, was $20,000. Speaker Marshall's election by one majority was brought abont by tho votes of fi vo Democrats. Two days before the House was organized the men engaged in buying the votes needed to elect Marshall were cm ploying their greatest efforts to bring this reenlt about without the id of Democratic votes. Offers of $10,000 were mado to a dozen different insurgont members of the louse, and ono of $00,000 for the votes of throe members was made to one of the trio supposed to con trol tho two others. None of their fforts were successful and the five Democrats were finally called into sorvice to insure the election of Mr. Marshall as Speaker. Baltimore News.

Then Mr. btogner yelled for him to stop and warned him of his danger, but was too late, for be had plunged out. Mr. Stogner ran to the win dow and saw what had happened and then lighted a lamp. lint to his surprise it was not his bedfellow the ground but Mr. Uollis. Covington and Stogner went down and carried Iloilis back upstairs. e was considerably bruised but no bones were broken. When Iloilis had sufficiently re covered from his experience be gave tbe following satisfactory explana tion of himself : lie was dreaming. he said, that he was on a visit to a friend of his near Converse, S.

The win dows bad not been put in and the mills were very close together. Mr. Iloilis and his friend were stepping from one m'll to another when Mr. Iloilis stepped out of the window. Statesville Landmark. Sometimes Lightning Does Strike Twice In the Same Place. The lightning Saturday afternoon played quite a prank at the house of Mr. Lock Kale near Catawba.

Mrs. Kale and two children wbo were in the house at the time, were stunned, but all recovered. One of the bors was badly scorched by the lightning. Another had just moved out of tbe window when the light ning struck it and shattered it to pieces. This is tbe same house at which a gentleman and lady were killed by lightning abont ten years ago.

By Winning a Wrestling Bout a Green Country Lad Laid the Founda Hon of a Big Fortune. "LI ad I caught tny train that bight," laughed the man who has had nothing to do for a quarter of century but to sit and watch pine trees grow to swell his bank account "I would probably bet farmer now trying to raiso raortgago and a few other things. 1 had gone to a littl town in lower Wisconsin to see a colt that a man thero wanted to sell, I was a good judge of stock and pretty shrewd on a trade, but a greener country lad never broke in to a town. I would have walked back to the farm after I found my self too late for the train, but I saw a handbill announcing a show that night and could not resist the temp tation to see it, though it did cost tbe sum of twenty-five cents. "In my hilarious appreciation 1 was more of an entertaiutnont than they had on the stage, especially as I was utterly oblivious to the fact that 1 did not look like any one else in the audience. Toward the end of the performance a huge fellow came out, tossed cannon balls in the air, held men out at arm's length and lifted heavy weights.

Then I sprang up, and as I came out of my old blouse, I very loudly shouted, "I'll go you, b'yosh !' "ihore was a roar of laughter, and then some of those about mo urged me not to go up there and have my neck broken. But one old man told me to go in and do my best. It was a tough job, but I fi nally threw the giant almost through the fl ior with a hip-lock. There was a little hesitancy about giving me the $10, but the crowd shouted until I got it. The old man took me home with him, and in a week I had charge of all the teams in his lumber camps. In time I became a partner, and he cleared the way to make me rich. That was really "a match for a million." From the Washington Star. A Head End Collision. A Kansas City dispatch of the 10th says: Fourteen persons are dead, three others probably fatally injured and more than a score of others less seriously hurt, as the re sult of a head end collision between passenper and fast live stock trains on the Chicago and Alton railroad near Norton, Mo., at 7 o'clock this morning. Six were killed outright, four died on a train conveying them to Kansas City, and throe dud at a hospital in this city. The passenger train was traveling in three sections, on account of the heavy Epworth League business to San Francisco. The wrecked train was the first section and contained no leaguers. Conductor Mc Anna.of the freight train, east bound, had been ordered to moot tho second section of the passeuger train at Slater, the next station east of Norton, but ap parently overlooked the fact that the first section, which was fifty five minutes late, had not passed. The head brakeman on the freight, wbo was about four cars from tbe engine, says Conductor McAnna assumed the throttle himselt on leaving Marshall and was rnnning the en gine when tho collision occurred. The traius met two miles west of Norton, on a curve surmounting a high embankment. A relief train started from Kansas City at noon and returned here with tbe injured from Kansas City at 0 o'clock this evening. Those who died on the way were delivered to the undertakers, whilo the others were distribnted between two hos pitals. In Germany a custom exists in some sections for parents in cities and parents in the country to ex change children for the summer, giviug the city children a taste of country life and the country chil dren a taste of city life. In Den mark the custom is genoral, and it is said that 10,000 rural kids spend the summers in Copenhagen while as many juvenile cops spend the summer in the rural regions.

Gusreateod tcbaera Bebit ears, makes k I Life's Hardships in a Great City. Summer life in New York cit judging from allegations freely made in many of its newspapers and not denied in any of them, is full of an novance and positive Buffering. It appears, to begin with, that it is not possible for a New Yorker to pitch his home anywhere within the city, or within reasonable traveling distance of it, and have a comfort able time getting to and from his business. If he lives in Brooklyn it is almost as much aa his lite is worth to get on or off tho bridge cars every morning and evening. What are practically catch as catch can wrest ling matches go on every day at tho "rush hours at both ends ot the big span, whose facilities were overtaken and outgrown over 10 years ago. I f lie takes up his abode anywhere be tween Herald Square and Liar lent he has the same rough-and-tumble tune to got a seat ; and more than half the time ho doesn't got one, but only a strap to hang on to, while he stands on some other citizen s feet and has his own trampled in turn. It he goes out from the Grand Central to the suburban towns on the Hndson.or into Connecticut, he is "rushed" almost as badly, and is hauled night and morning through a long tunnel, in which the dut, soot and cinders are blinding and tho heat fearful to bear. If, flying from New York alto gether, ho locatoe his home on tho Jersey side, he is packed in sardine style on ferryboats, many of whirh recent events havo shown to bo un safe to the last degree, incapable of keeping atnat for ten minutes if they are bumped hard. Moreover, tho Jersey rosidents who travel daily to and from the Northern metropolis complain constantly and utterly ot tho train service on nearly all the Jersey lines. It is a familiar fact that to get to any Now Jersey town distant from New 1 ork s city hall ordinarily requires a full hour at lcutt, except on the ennsylvania road, though the time tables may say it takes only 40 minutes. People who visit New York from other parts of tho country are al ways struck with the haggard and arrowed expression ot its people. hey wear a tircd-out and done for ook on their faces, as if they wero hopelessly bored and bullied by tho conditions of their daily lite. Tho stranger within their gates cannot tail to remark, too, on tho dis courteous, surly and almost eavae ono which the conductors on all the roads and surface street cars habitually adopt toward the passen gers. These conditions exist in New York city all the year round, but they are more intolerable in combi nation with the fierce heat of sum. mer.

An Associated Press dispatch from Washington, -dated July Dth, says: The Chinese Government, through Minister W11 Ting Fang, has lilod a claim for indemnity to the amount of a half million dollars on account of alleged outrapeons treatment of Chinese at Butte, Montana. There is a suggestion of Boxer outrages reversed in the presentation of the case to the State Department, the treatment inflicted upon theChineso at Butte being claimed to have been cruel and oppressive. It is charged that some of them wero kiiled, oth ers lost their property and nearly all wero ruined in business and many of them wore driven out. The claim ants number several hundred. The outrages date back to 1S8, and it is declared that the city conncil of uutte upheld the rioters and tho boycotters : that the State courts up on appeal decided, in lsnguage so unjudicial as to beitself asubioctof complaint, that the city conncil was right, and hnally that relief could le obtained only measurably thro' an appeal to the United States Cir cuit court.
