Net long since, while hi a large city, I was talking to a married wo man who "goce in" for coif, horeo shows, dog shows, and what net. bho had been married 10 or 12 years and her liuelmnd had nutria immcv. W Uh it camu (bo desire to i-liine in society, and 'lie wife had boon a shining social light for quite a number of years, lliere was something strangely pathetic in her voice as she said to mo in a languid wsy : "Did nobody ever tell you that in some prehistoric time I was in -love with my husband f VV ell, I was. 1 used to go to afiernoon services in ent and pray for that love to last, because tho sensation was so much o my taste. -1 used to have ecstatic feelings when hie foot was on the stair and 1 sat sewing little baby clothes. We lived in a plain way then : three dollars siient in two theatre tickets was a tremendous outlay, We walked out to dinners 1 tucking un the train of my best gown under a long cloak, and laugh- ing it the wind snatched it away from me at the corners and whipped it around my teet. 1 hen he grew icher, and then how and when, aoar knows, it l can remember, we grew farther away from each other, Now when he is at home, 1 am aware f it, but (hat is all. When our hps meet it is like two dry pieces of pith coming together. 1 know no(hing of his affairs, nor he of mine. I have money in abundance. Money, raouey ,-wuo cares lor money wnen man s heart and soul and brain nave gone into it i now like that is ot so many wo- men so many men ! 1 hey give themselves to gratify a sordid desire or gain and rob their hearts of all I luiMTOiaiiuu ui namre e ujoiuuiw , i its biras and xiowers and the bean- tiful pictures it paints upon the cre6t of a sunset cloud or moon kist valley.

They would enpy more of heaven in this world than tney are ever hkely to get in any other way. Or, better still, to marry some ro- bust, honest and opnght,clean mind- ed clean blooded country man, who nows how to thank his God for an honest return for an honost dav's work and lies down at night to dream only of Nature c.id Nature's God. Hut the changes in toe conditions of life bring changes in our tastes, and we are continuously striving for the unreachable, and leaving the bless ings ot simpler pleasures untusted. 1 often wonder how many conti- try boys who go to the cities to-get rich, after striving year iu and year out, battling against all obstacles unwholesome, adulterated food, wa ter that has a million baccilli to the ounce, poorly ventilated houses, per meated wun noxious gases finally long to go oacK to the old home.

Tbe Robbers Die a Tunnel to a Point Under tbe Walls of tbe Smeltlnf Works. Telegraphic dispatches last Tues day from Valleio, Cal.,fell of a dar ing robbery. The report ys : Gold bricks valued at $340,000 were stolon during last night from the Bui by smelting works. Tho rob bois had evidently boon working on the j ib or two or threo months. They had dug a tunnel from outside tho hnueo, beginning wllh a shaft about (hi oo foot dorp. Thence they woiked underneath the vsnlt and, striking upwards, bored a hojo in tbe strong room floor. The hole was shaped like the manhole of t boiler, l'arts of the holes were bored two mouths ago, it is thought, and tho last ono was completed during 'ho night. Through that nolo they took tho sold bricks snd carried them to hank near (ho mouth of a tunnol oast of tho works, wiiere they wcro evidently placed in a boat, In their hurry tho roimcrs leit two of tho bricks on tho bank. Tho entrance to tho tunnol was covered with a iVauio over which tho employes of tho smelter passed rjnidlv evcrv dav. but no ono loomed to notice anything out of tho way. tMierifl Hale, of Comraosta county, his deputies, and Chief of 1 olice ban ford, of allejo, liavo been notified and aro now at the works. The polico of Han Fran cisco and all tho Rty cities aro all at woik on tho case, but so far Micro is not tho slightest cluo to the robbers Tho work was that of skilled men and their plans wero carried out without a hitch. They got all tho bullion in tho vault, leaving behind cnly tho two bricks wincri wore dropped on the ehoro. Only one days accumulation of refined gold Was kept at tho works. 1 eeterday s run was unusual v. hcavv and the gold was to have been shipped back . . r ... to can r rancisco to day. . You Are Saved or Lost. There is no middle ground. Yorr are certainly either the ono or the other. To be lost means to be i condemned sinner, one who has bro ken God's law and must suffer the penalty. You know you have bro ken llis law. Your heart tells von that you have been breaking it all vour life. You have never loved the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your mind and with all your strength, and your neigh bor as vourself. lsut that is met what the law aavs vou ought to do and if you have not done if, you have broken the law. You are "condemned already." That means that vou have done the evil deed. you have been found guilty, you are under sentence and only waiting for the judgment to be executed. But the execution ot that just judgmeut win oe your eternal ruin, it it is executed, vou will be lost forever. And you are either in that condi Hon or yon are saved. What does that mean I It means that Another has been executed in your place, that the judgment your sins oeecrve nas oeen oorne ov vjno W bo was able to bear it, so the mo ment votj own vour lost condition and turn to Him as your only hope, your baviour, in that moment your sirs are forgiven and von are saved Now, where are yon I Do not say, "I do not know."

The con trohng forco to-day is a strenuous Industrial life. This is in a sense material age. Tho mad chase for wealth in itself is far from the highest aspiration of man, but thu deslro tor wealth is a laudable one. No longer can thdre bo great wealth lo a community devoted to agrlcu Jure alone, and wealth Is necessary. it is useless to decry its power, wiinout wealth thoro can bo no decided step forward, material or mental. Tho Industrial life and I IS a a.aa .a. man s Higher mtolioctnal lite are independent. Wealth snd pros pority, education and clviliisttion are inseparably linked together lo dsy forces aro at work under- noath our Stato which if allowed full nlav will strain nlaenher where r'i? once stood, near the head in D " I wealth, lo population and In power. Tho United (States has entered upon atiewereof itsexis'Bncn Kfpnninw almost auddnrilv from nn Wihdnd powur Info (ho position of a world power, presents to us many new problems. Wo are now in tho race for the world markets and our In dustrial life is ouickenod. lint it is of North Carolina we are sneaking On every side we can soe the new life springing Into existence. Hut this young life is tondcr and weak. 1 ropcrly nurtured and skillfully cared for, It will spring into a mighty power whoso fruit shall hn wealth, prosperity and nosilion. If. how- ever. K is uncared for. certain cou- ditintis nnfulfillnd. it will i..knn anddio. It is a (rite Baying "a chain is no stronrfi r than its weakest link." Kqually so our life is no richer, no deeper, no stronger than its tunet devoloood iihasn. The dnvelniminnt of every phsso of our life must pro ceed step by step with tho advance ot industry, Our pejple must be educated in more ways than one. It must bo said no longer that the State forgets its cit 17.0118 Our wealth does not lie in our son aim m our cotton, far richer is that wealth that lies in tl e intelligent industry of an educa'ed people. The Stato cannot afford fo lose this by illiteracy. We need skilled labor, (ho inventive faculty, the directive iremns in the men who handle mschioory. In the words of that celebrated Southerner, Dr. J. Ii M. Curry, "it will not do to say we are too poor to educate our peo plo ; we are too poor not (o educ i(e them. Ignorance and wealth, ignor ance and prosperity never dwell to get her. ' A peoplo educated in the rudiments of knowledge will see the needs for higher and technical edu cation. Then the demands of these institutions will be recognizid-nd the people will give them succor ben the public school houee stands at every man's door, and the public ibranes invite our people to associ ation with the minds of every age and country, when university train ing has been extended to all who desire it, there will come that large ness of view that will forever banish from our borders all narrowness of thought. And it is necessary that this much desired result be brought about, for no great advancement, material, mental or spiritual can come among a narrow people. The world has advanced and no longer are men expected to think and be lieve alike. This we must learn. That a man belongs to a certain ecclesiastical body well and good, that be belongs to any is to bis credit, but that be belongs to none should not be held against him. lie has his rights and there should be none to deny him. W Uh the negro eliminated from politics, civil freedom must grow if we are to realize tbe highest ideal of statehood. When men divide en principle and not on color, we can turn our attention to the discussion and study of great social and eco nomic questions, and 'in this clash of intcilec's we c&n raise great minds." ' Then our ideas as to the relation of labor and capital will be material ly changed. 1 he trained and capa ble laborer will know his rights and nowing dare maintain them. Hut no narrow view of corporations and combinations of wealth will cause. as to pass laws which will cripple our new-born industrial life. No maud lin sympathy for the laboring classes will legislate destructive to the interests of laborer and capitalists alike, Dut there shall be fair and qaitable treatment for all con cerned. When this has happened then and not till then will we be prepared to take prt in, to appreci ate, to extend and develop to tbe utmost the new industrial life that springing into existence. Our hope, our tutore, ocr opportunity es in the increased attention to in dustrial pursuits. If there is no retarding force the center of in dustrialism will be here in tbe South. Will we prepare the way for it! Will we seize the oppor tunity and make the most of it . It rests with tbe yoong men ot the State to settle this question. They are the rulers of our deetiny and in their bands is the future of our State. They can fulfill all these conditions and thus establish the future greatness ot our State.

Jn writing horeloforo on the ne cessity of (irudence on the part of farmers in contracting induhtcduoa to he paid out of their crops, wo have remarked thst there i no tvo. cation in which more chances are taken than in (hat of farming. No man cau fell when he plants his crop what he will got out of it. All he can do is plant and hopo. It may be (hat drought or deluge, storm or insect will leave him little or noUi ing, or it may bo that an excessive yield will exceed the demand for consumption and leave hiui little re turn for his labor. We have a striking illustration of this this year in tho great grain re gion of tho West, and in the oot(on region of tho South, both of which havo suffered much, the former from destroying droughts, the latter from downpours of rain, followed in some sections by parching drought-. Fortunately for tho farmers of the West, and for every body else, a very good wheat crop was liar vested bo- fore tlio drought set in. If it hadn't boon for that tho farmers of the West would have been ruined, and in their ruin would have liiilh-d lowu thousands of others 'whose business depends upon. the farmer. It is too early yet (nd utill chances aro to ho tHkcn) to estimate what the d-niiHgti to tho South has beer, but ihu teliiuated damage (o the i.u mers of Mhs inri, Kansas, Iowa and Nebraska alone is between :if)iyou,ooo and l.oiyjno.ooo. ' There arc a great many farmer in tho West who raise but little wheat, depending on corn and other crops, principally corn, which thuy feed to hogH, so I hat a lues of corn moans a loss of p irk, t hoi r main dependence.
