I have not heard a word about politics or fi ver or gold since I've been heie and I don't dare t introduce the subject. Jud e Welborne said I had better not.

It will take hi artist two month m re to fin sh it. Of course, the p'io.phates will occupy a liberal ppaeo. But I um not authorized to disclos) what the Plant system ha design-id. Of course, the o her railroads will seek to emulate Mr. Plant aud will be on hand. And so the great expodtion ke p on swelling in i's proportion and it is now certain that it will bo a grand show and a grand success. When it was first proposed I thought that it was tho most cheeky, fool -hardy thin I ever heard of, but Atlanta knowl no Hii'di word ns fail. The south land is coming to the front.

They adopted reso lutions which set forth that before any United States mint w as opened, North Carolina adopted the Spanish dollar as the unite of coinage value; declaring in favor of the bimetallic conference call ed to meet at Memphis June, 12th, in the interest of the money of the con stitution and to checkmate the un patrioic and dangerous gold crusado jufct started by President Cleveland and his secretary of the treasury ; that full and unlimited coinage of silver and gold at the ratio of 16 to 1 was first declared for by the populist party. Delegates are to be 6ent to Memphis to assist in advancing this principle of the populist party and to impress upon the conference the Decesbity for uniting all free coioage elements of the old parties under the bimetallic banner of tho populist party. The committee also declared fur the income tax, and urged Congress to pass o constitutional amendmeat providing for an incomo tax. Commencement Day. Thursday was commencement day proper of Davis Military College, Win fcton, and the exercises were of a high order and inspiring to the friends and patrons of the institution. The address by Gen. E.

Thursday was graduation-day at the University of North Carolina, and Chapel Hill was a scene of gaity and pleasure. Tbe crowd was estimated at live thousand. There were forty one graduates. This is the largest number 6ince the reopening in 1875, and being the first class that matricu lated under the regime of the new President, Winston, is significant of the progressive and energetic admin istration of this gentleman, who in the brief four years has placed this uni versity in the very forefront of Amer ican universities, its enrollment near ly reaching 500. A New Cotton Factory. At Winston it was learned that the Cone Export Co. of New York has purchased from the North Carolina Steel and Iron Company a large tract of land near Greensboro, for which they are to pay 310,000, and will'erect thereou a large cotton mill with a bleachery in connection with it. The plant is to be one of the most exten sive in the South. Work was begun Monday morning on the third knitting mill for Dntham. Already two are in successful opera tion. Rev. Christopher T. Bailey, the most prominent Baptist in the" State, died after a lingering illness of four months. The tobacco factory of W. R. Doss Sc Co., at Copeland, Surry county, was destroyed by lire. The loss wis about $30,000, and insurance $18,000. The tobacco factory of Row, Atkin eon & Co., at Copeland. Sorry county, was destroyed Tuesday by a fire of un known origin. Lotws $25,000; insur ance, $13,000. The alumni of the State University have bo far raised 31S.003 for the alumni hall at Chapel Hill. It is quite probable that the umuuut will be in creased to $25,000. For this a fine building can be erected. In Brooklyn, X. T., th. trolley record U lOakilled and more thaa 00J maimed. Cotton Crop Statement. The New Orleans Cotton Exchange state ment la as follow.-: Secretary Hester has just Issued a statement of the Texas cotton crop and movements from the Gulf and Atlantic States, showing actual deliveries from the State of Texas for the first nine monttus of tbe season to the close of Mv inclusive, of a.l-lO tale, against l.V7ti.b4 bale for the same time last suon. mainsr a net incrasa cf 1.211.376 hnl-B. Th deliveries at the Texas seaboard show an increase of 643,711 bals; shipments via Cairo and St. Louis 143,8'J6, to New Orleans 40'J,903 and railroad shipments to 3Iexi--o 30.974. While the ship ments across the Mississippi river north ol St. Liis have d-crasd 13.174 tales. Secre tary Hester says that the deliveries from the State of Txa's from and after May 31 list year were 2.176 bales, the commercial crt p of Texas la.-t year having been i.059.Qf"9 bal?s. Mr. Il3ster ha- also is'ued a statement piving an analvs'g of themoveaent of cotton into sii,'ht. dividing the cott n dt into thr-s eroups. iz: First. Texas an i Indian Terri tory; s.-ond. other Gulf States, embracing Ark-ms-L-. Louisiana.' Mis-is.-ippi and Tenn-e-vj-rj; t.dd. Atlanti' StUes. embra-'ing North Carolina. 8-'itti Carol:na. Geortria. Florida and Alabami. Th;s analysis shows the crop brought into sight for the first nine months of th season to the close of May. In clusive, as follows: Texas 3.184.456 bales, airainst 1.9S7.177 in 14. nnd 2.067,018 in 1W3: other Gulf States 2.794.676 bales, against 2.129.31 in 18U4. aud 1.770.846 in 193: At lantic States 3.540.933 bal.-s. against 3.11-0.677 in 1894. and 2.583.133 in 193. The stafment does not divide Texas and other Gulf States for lwp-2. the ?.035.00 crop year, as there wore no separate monthly figures made up for Texas in that year, but it gives the follow ing comparisons Ix-tween this year and 192: Texas and other Gulf States together this yar 5.979.13'2 ba!e. against 5,374.021 in 1S9J. Atlanti - States, this year 3.540.953. against 3.57,197 in 192. Excess compared with 1892 in Texas and other Gulf States 605.111: excess compared with 1892 in Atlatitie States 53.756. The difference in the Texas crop, as given above, and Texas in sight consists of the fact that the Texas crop embraces only cotton ac tually shipped out of the State to the close of May, whereas the insight includes also stocks at counted interior towns at tbe close of May in excess of September 1. An important feature in Mr Hester's report is the snowing of the amount brought into sight from the different groups after the close nf Mav iu the past three years. They were as follows : From Texas 80,883 dales in 1894 ond 41.305 in 1893; from other Gulf States 86.091 bales in 1894 aud 93.720 in 1893. From Texas and other Gulf States together 60.979 bales in 1892; from Atlantic States 74,803 bales in 1894, 144.143 in 1893 and 113,182 in 1892. MAIDS MADK MAD. A Georgia Female College Rebellion. Gov. Atkinson Hissed Off the Stage by Girls. A special from Milledgeville, Ga., says: There was a sensation on Thursday during the commencement exercises of the Georgia Normal and Industrial College, growing out of the conflict of the authority between tha trustees and faculty. In the case of one of the students expelled for breach of discipline involving tbe integrity of her examination, the faculty decided that she was not entitled to a diploma. Tha trustees decided other wise. R3 previous to examination in question the young lady had been found to be entitled to a certificate as a graduate. Alter a full hearing ot the case, the trus tees decided to reverse the action of the faculty and issued a diploma. When the young lady's name was announced among the graduates. President Chappell arose and protested on behalf of tha faculty against the action of the trustees. Governor Atkinson held that the case had been investigated fully and that the trustees had determined in ac cordance with the law of the college to issue the diploma and to assume all responsibility for its action. There is no question as to tho authority of the board of trustees or as to the right of a student to appeal from the faculty to the board. When Governor At kinson announced that the trustees would deliver the diploma, the students, the faculty ami the audience were amazed. After Pres ident Chappell made his protest, Governor Atkinson stepped forward before the ap plause had died away, and with a face white with rage and in a voice choked with anger, he turned to Professor Chappell and uttered these words amid a death like sienee : "I have known Prof. Chappell a long time, but I never thought he could be guilty of ah act so unbecoming a gentleman and so unchiv alrous as persecuting a defenseless girl." He waited a moment to give his words effect and then he said further: "The board of trustees were guided solely by justice in this affair and they have stood between a gros3 wrong and the most absolute justice." Again there was silence. "The teachers in this institution." he said, "cannot confer di plomas. Their ter-ms end with this com mencement and they hae no right to do so under the law." In the pause that ensued, every teacher on the stage and every student present rose en masse and accompanied by nearly the whole audience, started to leave the room. The governor stood in amazement at such a spectacle, a blush mantling his cheeks. Gray headed men present never remembered such a spectacle of silent indignation hurled at the chief executive. Prof. Chappell stepped quietly forward and in a few words called the audience back, the Ooverner meanwhile uttering some remarks, the purport of which was not clearly understood. Then Fleming DuBignon asked the privi lege of a word and stated that the trustees merely wanted to do justice to the young lady. The benediction was pronounced and the exercises were over. But the most humiliating experience yet remaiued for Georgia's chief executive. Governor Atkinson has been the ideal of the college. The students enthusiastically supported h'm in their own wav in his race for Governor and when he was inaugurated, they moved heaven and earth to get per mission to attend the exercises in a body. But as tbe Governor stepped from the stage, he was met by 200 angry, tearful faces, an , ignoring all rules of courtesy, the young maids hissed him to the echo. The senior class immediately held a session and unanimously refused to receive their di plomas from the board of trustees." The coiicge has 310 students. The South Carolina Registration Case. The Richmond (Va.) Times eays editorially of the registration case now before tbe U. 8. Circuit Conrt: "The record and argument in the South Carolina registration case, heard here before the United States Circuit Court of Appeals, present the case of the State iu a clearer light than it has yet leen seen. Whatever Federal question was involved -and that was the only question Judge Goft could have dealt with must have ari-.-!i out of the fourteenth and fifteenth amendment to the Constitu tion and the act of Congress of June 25. 186-, admiuing South Carolina into the Unioi, after her adoption of the reconstruction Constitution. It can hardly le h"H that the provisions of that a'-t will bind the State of South Carolina for all time, and limit thos powers which, as fre. sovereign, aud inde pendent State, are guaranteed to her under the Constitution of the Unite,! States. I. therefore, there i nothing m the registration laws wnk-h apply Se ial'y to negroes, if white aal black are treated, under the Jaw, exactly alike, no citiren h;M i-en deprived of his right to vote l-cai;. of ra- c. color, or prerious condition of servitude, and the pro visiots of the r.ft'-eiitti utcu Irnent have not been transgressed. As a matter of fact, no such disoriminntion ftaitist the negroes ha been disclosed; iu les. stM.nre to sy. it does appear from tbL- r-r-or i that tb ti tioner. Mills, was a negro, although Judge Gcff m states in hi opinion, nu i it is said that some of the iuost objectionable rulings under the registration law vr against white men. The iirjortane of tbece- does not diminish on examination, and the in dication are that Ju life G iff will be reverse,!, and if this reversal should s-t the court's seal of diapprolativ!i ujon that construction of the act of Congress admitting South Caro lina into the Union which would make that act binding on the state after h- w& re stored to her place, it would be a mot salu tary lesson in constitutional 'law. There construction att?. and a!l tbe theories upon which they ptowded. and the conse quences which followed their enactment and rnforcen.ent. have most ofTee-ive viola ccs of the Constitution, and opiosed to all logical views of the Constitution, even from Ihe standpoint of the Unionists. If South Carolina politics are eurruf.ted, let her good p-o pie purify them themselves, and not In- I vce Federal interference," JUSTICE CAUGHT NAPPING JUDGE IRVING SIGNED HIS OWJEf DEATH WARRANT. Hasty Work on the Bench An Inter esting Story Told lr JTctt Jersc Lavryr. TT PROMIXET lawyer of New Jersey, who baa an office on V lower Broadway, tella a story of forty yeara ago that always fetches nBmile". Judge John T. Irving, tho tipright and conscientious brother of Washington Irrinpr, is tho hero of the alleged incident. It occurred in the days when judges receired a fee of $1 for OTery paper they signed. On day two prominent New York lawyers, so the story runs, were in Jrtdgo Irving'-i court when he was Imsily engaged in Bigning papers. There was a long line of lawyers filing slowly in front of Lis desk, ond as each pawodup Lis papers he at the same time laid down a corresponding number of dollars. Tho Judge would glance at the papers, mako a sorawl on each and take np the next package, the pile of greenboks growing stead ily as the line ot )7yeza thinnod out. One of tho Iwc UirjVJB looking on said to his conip&3tar; I havo tho highest teepee for the Judge's integrity, but Ta natisfled he doesn't know half tho timo what he is eigninjf. Why, watch him. It is im possible for him to get half of an idea of what is on the paper. If he ex amined each ono cloBoly he'd never get done; but he should be more care ful, nevertheless." Tho other lawyer declared the Judge caught at a glance tho important sentence or phraso of. eaob. ,'v?eV9 1 don't believe it," exclaimed tho others 'I feel 6ure, in Bpite of bettor iftt?stions, that that one dollar feo acts a: an incentive and causes Itia Honor to align hii work, and I'm going to prove what I S,t." With that ho Btrodo out of the room, r.nd presently returned with a legal form signed by tho Sheriff, and which set forth that on such and such a day, and at & certain hour and in a certain place, Judge Irving was to bo hanged by tho neck until ho ehould be dead. The lawyer then took his place in the lino filing beforo tho Judgo'a desk. When it came his turn ho held up the paper, folded between his fingers in a nonchalant manner, and laid down his $1 with the other hand. His Honor unfolded the paper and hurriedly plunged his pen in the ink. Thero was a splutter and a scrawl, and Judge Irving had signed his own death warrant. That night the lawyer went to a social gath ering, which J udgo Irving was to at tend, with the death warrant in his pocket. When he found himself in a corner with tho Judge he said: Judge, I was watching you signing papers to-day, ond I couldn't for the life of mo understand how you can read them all. Do yon really read them?"! 'Why, certainly, it's a matter of habit you know. I have acquired it by years of practice. I can at a glance detect the really important sentence or vord." "Well," said the lawyer, producing the death warrant and folding it iu such a manner that the name of Judge Irving only wm visible, "is that your signature?' The Judge put on his glasses, stared at the paper an instant, and then de clared it wm his signature. The law yer then unfolded the paper and hand ed it to the Judge. The latter read it and turned crimson. After that the signing of papers in Judge Irving's court was ns long and tedious a process as it had been rapid and careles3 before. New York Press.

After having there he refused a tempting offer of ;he Chinese Government to go to China to aupcrintend their government factoriop. -nd accepted instead th' auperintendency of the Winchester-Arms Co., at ew HaTen, at n salary of $7,500 a year. It was after this long term of active labor as a business man that he found himself in tapacitated for further service by the em bargo which rheumatism had laid upon him and resigned his position more than two ears ago, and returned to Belchertown, Mass., where ho now lives and wns the Their farm, a retired Sf-t where he ha-i five linnured acres of land.

Bismarck was living at Kniephof in the year 1839. His personal life dur- in? that year vras 01 tnai iiveiy cnax-actt-r over which he afterward lament ed m hitter'T. It was the Sturm und brag Zeit of his existence. Stories of his dissoluteness and pride, his daring feats as a rider, and his achievements as a boon companion, his disregard of conventional rules, and his love of wild adventure are numerous. Xh youthful owner of Kniephof was t ba often seen careering wildly across the country alone or in the company of gay friends who were bis guest", ana such was the impression he prodnoed on the quiet population that he cams to be generally known as the "Mad Bismarck." Near Kniephof thero lived a farmer of the name of Goetz. He- had an only daughter, Malvina, who was kuown as the beauty of the neighborhood. Bismarck met her and paid his addresses, but as it was im possible fot the proud young master of Kniephof to make this lowly maid his wife her father frowned upon their intimacy. Soun after Bismarck, on his mother'a death, moved to Pomerania and probably forgot all about his early attachment. Malvina Goetz married in her own station of life. Years aitewards, when Bismarck's name became famous throughout the world, the respectable middle-aged Malvina became local celebrity, and the Chancellor's enemies tried to make capital out of bin old love affair. Il lustrated American. The Trnc Napbleou. . It is curious to note the different ideas different people have about well, say, Napoleon Bonaparte's per sonal appearance. You might fancy him a chameleon-like hero, to be in vested according to the whim of his worshiper with brown eyes, and with a commanding presence, surmounted by that dark imperial curl which for ever care&6ed the marble beauty of his noble forehead. It quite unnerves one to be assured that the hero of Maren go and of Ansterlitz was but five feet four in height, that he had red hair, and that early in life he became bo bald that the famous curl which is to be Been in his portraits was actually brought forward in a long stringy mass over a hairless stretch from the back part of his head. Chicago Rec ord. Ifew Vntted States' Irmy Cap. Herewith is presented a picture of the new cap for the United States Army, a cap that seems to be a much more sensi ble piece of headgear than the one which it will displace after July 1, as to of ficers, and after January 1, 183C, for enlisted men. Those among army officers who see no necessity for a change criticise the new cap as being devoid of what they term '-military smartness," but cone of them has as yet attempted to assail the cap as a practical piece of wearing apparel. Among the advantages it has over the present headgear the most conspicu ous oue is that it will stay on the bead without being held; another advan tage it tho sloping viaor, which afford grateful protection to tbe eyes.

Chief Engineer Kennedy repoilstt unusual find in a rock cutting being made on tho O. R & N. line five railei west of Tho Dalles. The cut ia fift feet in depth through columnar basal tho hardest kind, and in this rock tha workmen havo encountered the petri. fled trunk of a fir tree, six feet ia Qi ameter, standing erect as it greir. Petrified trees have been found tt eeveral places in the gorge of tQ, Columbia, but never before 6taudiug where they grew and surrounuol by basalt. The tree is about 189 feet above t! river, near tho edge of a plateau. Mr; Kennedy brought down specimens of the tree, which, unfortunately, ma5 be blasted out of the way. They are translucent, and ring like pieces ol glass or china. How long tbe tret has stood on that spot is a problea for geologists to wrestle with. It wu 200 or 300 years growing. Then who can tell how long it took to petrify it. or how this was done where it etanls This process must have been com pleted beforo Mount Hood pourej forth the basalt whioh covered it. If any ono wauts specimens of petri fied fir, thero are a few carloads to ba rad at -the cut above mentioned. There are also lumps of petrified fir balsam there. The wood shows tba grain of the Douglas fir as plainly m a tree cut yesterday does, and even the pitch v parts can be recognize! Tho basalt ia coolinc seems to have thrunk, leaving a cavity around tha petrified tree which is filled with earth and looso stones. Portland Oregonian.
