An Interesting Assemblage of Carolinians Meet at Charlotte, the Leader for Better Roads. Wednesday, Sept. 12 was the first day's session at Charlotte, N. C, of Ihn N. C. State Road Congress. Tfce follow ing counties of Nrtu Carolina were represented: Surry, Moore, Orarvge, Rutherford, Bladen, Anson, Forsyth, Alamance, New Hanover.Burke.Stanly, Henderson, Wayne, Iredell, Gaston, Rowan, Union, Wake, Cabarrus, Lin coln, Cleveland, Guilford, Buncombe, and Mecklenburg; also delegates from Springfield, Ohio; Nashvilla, Tenn.; and Spartanburg, S. C. The road making arouAd Charlotte was visited. Congressman S. B. Alex ander told the convention the history vf Ihe Mecklenburg Road Law. Capt. Alexander was closely allied with this history from its incipiency. He was therefore able to give, even without preparation, the facts, as known by the road building element of the county. He told of the first movement which gradually crystallised into what is know n as the Mecklenburg road law; of the fight he had getting it through the Legislature. The house, he said, seem ed determined that Mecklenburg snoula not have good roads, for fear the contagion would spread over the State. Capt. Alexander stood by the movement though, and in the of strong opposition fought the matter through, being assisted by Capt. W. E. Ardrey and other Representatives. "That" bill," said Capt. Alexander, "was not drawn for Mecklenburg county alone, but for every county in the State; it would fit Cherokee, Buncombe or any other county; it fills the bill for the sandy counties and for the mountainous ones. The bill is a local one. It works the roads by townships. Each county can regulate the amount of tax to suit itself. Some counties can keep Up the roads cheaper than others. Every farmer is allowed to work out his tax. This system Is important to the farmer. It is an elastic system; there is no county it will not tit. - "They," continued Capt. Alexander, "confound the convict system with the Mecklenburg road law. Each county should work its convicts the same as Mecklenburg. You will meet with de lays as we did. Our work was at first crude, but we kept on until we have our magnificent system of to-day. We have gotten to the point where we know what good roads are, and the time is coming when good roads will radiate out of Charlotte in every direc tion. This system can't be kept up very successfully by just one county; it must extend from one county to an other, forming a net-work of good roads." Capt. Alexander was heartily applauded when betook his seat. Monday evening Prof. J. A. Holmes, State Geologist, gave astereopticon ex hibition of roadbuilding and other scenery. BRECKINRIDGE DEFEATED. The Silver Tongtie Kentuckian Meets His Waterloo. Lkxinuton, Ky. Col. Breckinridge wns defeated at the Democratic pri maries for the nomination to Congress. Owens won the victory and claims a plurality of ,rti.". This will not be materially changed when the final count is iniidc. Col. Breckinridge declared that he would support the nominee as a loyal Democrat. "Neither I nor my frieuds will oppose W. C. Owens before the people," he said. "I have always been a Democrat, and I shall not allow this defeat to affect in any way my duty to the party and the principles I love." 7a o North Carolina Women Comm it Sui cide. Miss I Hmiinsha Waggoner, of David son county, X. C, committed suicide last Wednesday, at 11 o'clock, by hanging herself from the ceiling. She was about '.W years of age and had for seer.il mouths been affected mentally. The deed was committed in the second story of the rcsiileuce. Selvage from quilt lining was used as a rope. There is no special reason known for her rash act save the ill balance of her mind. Mrs. Rachel Michael, of Ashe coun ty, committed suicide Inst Friday week by drowning. She left the old Amos Michael place for the home of her son-in-law, Richard Johnson, it was sup posed. She hitched her horse near the river, pinned her bonnet and ril-ing-hnb.t close about her and then waled into deep water. SOLD HIMSELF FOR S60.

Secretary Carlisle Sars He Will Not Pay the Earned But Unpaid Sugar Bounty. Washington, D. C Secretary Car-li-le authorized the official announce ment thst he would not pay any sugar bounty earned but nnpaiil when the now tariff bill went into effect. August -!'. The Secretary's refusal to pay the-e sugar bounty claims w ill be based upon the clause in the new tariff bib repealing the sugar bounty provisior of the McKinley law, which conclude as follows: "And hereafter it shall b unlaw ful to issue any license to product sugar or to i ay any bounty for the pic ductiou of 6ugar of anv kind under this act." AN "OLD STONE CHURCH" YARD. The Historic Presbyterian temetery Near Ptaloh-Gen. Pickens and Other of its Distinguished Dead. No more sacred landmark stands la the upper part of South Carolina than the Old Stone Church and its burying ground, near Tort Hill, Oconee Conn1 ty. There in the vke-tfrowft cferAi tteryj the ashes of m&by of the brave old patriots and poineers of upper Carolina, and mothers and grand mothers of some of themnier InteUect- iial jrlant of tatlt Own day, have lon feitt.ee commingled with the earth. Them on the old worn, and weatiierelainea tablets, M fend the , names of family trees whose branches are spread out far, and wide over many States of the Luion, 6uch names as Pickens, Whu ner, Lewis, Sloan, Calhoun, Beson, Kilpatrick, Adorer, Miller. Dickson and many others. Within a stone wall enclosure lie the remains of the elder" members of the Pickens family. A simpl tablet, planted deeply in th etound. marks the Snot where all that was mortal of Gen. Andrew Pickens "was laid to re6t seventy-seven years ago. In these few simple words is couched the history of a great soul, an indomitable will anrt an untiring bodv: "Born September 13, 1739; died August 11, 1817. He was a Christian patriot and Boldtef. tlift character find Actions were incorporated with the history of his country." Near by the Pickens plot I found the grave of Joseph Whit ner. The tablet, still standing, was so darkly stained that I could read its lettering only by the touch of the fingers. With some little difficulty, I made a bote of the epitaph, which I give in fultt "Sacred to the memory df Josepli Whitner, a native of Germany, who died of apoplexy April 12, 1824 aged 67 years. Left, by the death of his parents an orphan child in a strange land, wholly destitute of property and kiudred, he was mercifully preserved to bear a part in the struggle of hi adopted State for independence, td live many years in the enjoyment of the blessing of liberty, an example of probity and sincerity in his relations as citizen, friend, father and husband, and to die after twenty years member ship in the Presbyterian Church in tha faith of pardon through the blood of the Redeemer. His -children have placed this tablet over his grave." The Cotton Situation. Tho Jerome Hill Cotton Co., of St. Louis, Mo., says of the cotton crop! "There has a change come 6ver the crop situation Those who knew it would be 10; 000,00(1 bales are noTV taking off a million or two for 'hoofs and hides,' as tbey say down in Texas. One of the simplest and easiest things now to do is to make an enormous cot ton crop on paper. This system can only be compared to the watering of stocks in corporations. Drought, too much moisture, worms, ru6t and shed ding have all been reported of late, and an early frost now would cause great consternation among big crop estima tors and free sellers for the early mouth's f-hipments. There has been mut-h talk of cotton selling for a nickel a pound at interior points, but there never has been any good reason for anticipating any such calamity to this country. The South owns this crop freer from debt than any crop for a decade past. The world wfll need every bale of it for consumption. Owners and producers should therefore name the values of same, and not the men who want to buy it." TO IMPEACH THE MAYOR. Now Orleans Citizens Bring Suit Against Their Municipal Chief for Incompetency. New Orleans, La. District At torney Butler filed in the Civil District Court, this city, a suit for the impeach ment of Mayor Fitzpatrick. Ex-Associate Justice Fen ner will be the leading counsel in behalf of the people. The suit is. filed at the instigation of 25 citizens, embracing capitalists, bus iness men, professional men, clerks and representatives of labor. The petition covers 21 pages of type-written matter and includes some 26 or more specifications. The mayor is charged with favoritism, incompetency, etc. The suit will be tried before the five civil judges, and the mayor, if found guilty, may appeal to the Court of Appeals, which is the court of last resort. Her Lone Letter Came Back. Colcmbia, S. C. In September, 1R62, on the battlefield of South Mountain. Md., John Tyler, of Com pany B, Forty-fifth Regiment, P. V.V., took from the pocket of a dead rebel soldier a love letter dated July 3, 1862, written to the latter by his affianced, who then lived in Richmond county, N. C, and who signed herself "Kate." It enclosed a lock of her hair. Mr. Tyler carefully preserved the letter, and has long boen trying to find the writer. A copy of it was recently sent to the Governor of North Carolina, who caused it to be published in the local papers. This found tho writer, "Kate," who is now a widow, andlives at Riverton, N. C, and who has writ ten to Mr. Tyler. The latter has now i t turned the long-lost love letter and lock of hair bv mail to the address of Mrs. A. C. McNeill, Riverton, N. C. Maine Elections. , The reports from Lewieton, Maine, show that Henry B. Cleaves, Repub lican, was elected Governor with 33.899 pluralty over all opponents.

GENERtL GORDON ATTENDS THEIR GATHERING AT PITTSBURG. The Ex-Confederate Leader Asks That Old Scores Be Laid Aside and That We Be One Brotherhood. PtfisBtBO. Pa. To the tjnion Vet eran Legion attending the encampment and the Pittsburg members of tne or ganlzation, was, perhaps the most re markable scene siriee, the .close of the rebellion took Dlacewheil General Gor dobi.ohe of the leading commanders of Ihe Confederate avmyi appearedUefore a vast number of Federal soldiers and raised his voice for the obliteration of sectionalism and a united America, To say that the other Union soldiers were responsive to General uoraon s plea gives no adequate idea of the recip rocal feelinff manifested by tne tnunaer ou cheers and hearty hand grasps with which the ex-Confederate general was rgefcivd. General Gordon was the first member of the Confederate army to enter the hall. The great crowd cave three very hearty cheers. General A. L. Pearson, in a happy re mark, introduced the rebel general, whom many present hud ''met" at the surrender of Appomato. General Gordon sai(i: "I, and all right-thinking men of any section, woitld always ad mire men who fought." Turning to the Union flags, which profusely covered the speakers stand, he delivered a very eloquent apostro. phe, pledging his devotion, and that of the ex-Confederates of tbe ooutn, to that banner and all that it symbolizes. He addressed the Soldiers as cbhlrades and counrrvmeii, and, every time the general, in his calm; deliberate tones, used these endearing terms, the audi ence was visibly affected. At the end of the eloquent addresses, three tre mendous sheers were given. Corporal Tanner responded in an address of no less fervent eloquence, pledging the respect and admiration of all real Uhioii feoldiers, who fought and" suffered; for Such loyal; patriotic men and soldiers as represented by Gen, Gordon. Corporal Tanner's , remarks were delivered most earnestly and elo quently. He was seated in a chair, the recent amputation of his Limbs pre venting lUm from standing on n,is feet. Then the great parade took place. A MYTCHICAL COMPANY. Organized to Swindh Poor Negroes The President im Jail. Little Rock, Ark. Charles Abra hams; president of the Life1 Benefit Association of Arkansas; was convicted in Judge Bobbins' court of obtaining money on false pretense, and given one year iu jail and a fine of $100. He ap pealed the case, and in default of bail was 6ent to jail. Abrahams,in his own testimony, virtually admitted that the association was a myth and existed in name only. His victims, about three hundred, were poor, unsuspecting, ignorant negroes. His scheme was to get people to join the society, each of whom was to pay him 50 cents a week. In return, he promised $3 per week in case of sickness and $100 when a mem ber died. Twenty demands were te cently made upon him by his victims but he failed to keep his promise in every instance. Investigation develop ed that he and his daughter were the only members of the association. In filing the articles of. incorporation, he forged.the names of ten-mythical per sons as incorporators, and when asked to bring them into court.said they had all left the city. Abrahams came here several months ago from Nashville, Tenn. SKELETONS IN A CAVE. Near Seven Mile Ford, Virginia, a Myster ious Charne! House Was Discovered. A Bristol, Va., special says: Charles Rector, and a boy named Morris, in exploring a cave near Seven Mile Ford, Va., three miles east of this place, discovered two skeletons, 40 feet below the. surface -The cave had long been known, but uo one had ever en tered to explore it because of its great depth. The Morris boy was let down by a rope. When the find was report ed, a party of citizens went to the cave to investigate further. In all ten skeletons were taken out, and were adjudged to be the bones of men. One skeleton was found in a sit ting position with tbe skull reclining on the arms, which weje folded across the knees. Thus far there is but one way to account for the charnel house. Old citizens say that many years ago there was an inn kept near this cave by a man named Allen and that occa sionally people who stopped there and mysteriously disappeared and were never again heard of. The supposition is that they were killed in this inn; robbed of their valuables and then con signed to the cave. Some of the skele tons discovered were partially buried under stones and many of the bones were broken. Wedded to a Colored Giant. Bridgeville, Del. Purnell Fisher and Miss Laura Parker, both colored, were married here Thursday night. Fisher is six feet seven and one-half inches tall in his stocking feet, and tips the scales at 261 pounds. A No. 14 shoe fits his foot tightly, and he has never yet been able to buy a hat that would fit his head properly. His mother came to his relief a few months ago, when she secured a number of old huts, aud with parts of each made one to tit his head. 12 Farmers Being Tried. At Greensboro, N. C, the trial has begun of twelve well-known farmers of Guilford county. They are charged with having last month notified two Mormon missionaries to leave that county and also escorted them to the county line. There was no attempt at concealment. The warrants against the farmers were sworn out by ad herents of the Mormons. The latter have been chased out of several coun ties, but this is the first time there has been any trouble about the matter. The First Snow of the Season Drops at Omaha, and Rain Follows. Omaha.

Daby's Sittin; Postnre. Careful mothers give much atten tion to the first sitting posture of a child in the baby carriage, where tho continued motion may exert a wrong influence in curving the spine, says the Philadelphia Ledger. Miss Lind ley, a physical culturist, observes that "careful thought should be given to the chair that succeeds the high chair at the table. This must have the seat of a length to correspond to the child's thigh from the back to the- bent knee. Then the leverage of the spine in sup porting the body in its correct sitting postufe is brought from the extreme lower end, instead of at the waist, as is the case when the chair is too deep for the length of the child's thigh. The back of the chair should be straight instead of hollow. They Ate Ten Car Loads of Melons. Rocky Ford, Col.
