Col. jWorthington's masterly produc :ion "The Broken Sworjl" is in great demand, and every mail brings many orders for it. As we said in a former communication it is ome of the ablest, strongest most powerful books that we have ever seen, and it is not onlv a hook of real ability and power, but it is a true and graphic and faithful pic ture of the reconstruction era, bring'ng out jtyi life like vividness the scenes -nd infiilenfs of that black and iniquitous la;;e in our country's . history. It is couched in chaste and ornate language, many of his sentences blossoming out with rarest flowers of poetic beauty and emiting a fragrance of sweetest felic ity. It is indeed the work of a master, and a gem of beauty, for in ability and felicity of expression and graphicness of portrayal it can not be surpassed, "e heard one of the ablest lawyers and finest literary men in the state ay that "it far surpasses in merit and beauty any book yet written on tbid suhject." We have just seen a telegram from Kinston, stating that the Christian Mis sionary convention, which is npw in session in that place, had 'accepted the proposition made by the trustees of t.e Kinsey , Seminary; and -immediately raised upon the spot five thousand dol ors towards j its .payment. ,This, move ment promises much for Wilson, for the Christian church, zealous in , good "oi.ks and full of i miming enthusiasm, ill now put this institution of" learning upon that sound, solid--financial basis "'hich will insure its permanence and bring it the sunlight of brightest pros perity. -.'':..' , A surveying party is out, taking the w"idth and length and elevation of cer tain streets in Wilson as a preliminary ep for their pavement, a thing, most eiserly looked for by our whole com munity, v ; The new hotel, which is being erected DJ" Solicitor Daniels, will soon be com peted and ready for occupancy.

Special.-r The alarm, of fire last night about 11 :30 o'clock first came- from' the big whistle at the Borden Cotton Mill, 'the deep,gross, mournful tones of which, disturbed the midnight quiet of the city and filled the minds of the awak ened citizens wuti a feeling; of awe: then came the loud clanging of the fire bell in the tower, the peculiar and piercing strokes of which denoted the number from which the alarm was turned in and . soon the horses' hoofs could be heard oil the pavement and the sharp rattling sound of the gongs on the hose wagons. With the fire de partment the crowd of curiosdty seek ers, was , surging toward the cot ton mills, expecting soon to see the I Hemes leaping toward the skies, but (who were doomed to disappointment, as the fire had long been extinguished. I The cause for all this commotion at such an unseasonable hour of the night was the igniting of a pile of ashes and old con! near the carton mill, which at first looked -as if it might assume serious proportions and led to the alarm to be turned in. The injunction of the poet, "Wpodman Brare tha: tree." is not be ing heeded by-our city ; authorities to day.' They are taking down the old elm trees in Walnut 'street in fron't of the mayor's office. The trees are pnr:ly decayed and have uo value as makers of shade. They are "old. and ugly and only in tne way," and the city is doing the proper. thing in re moving such unsightly objects fiom the street.

Lincoln, Neb., Oct. 31. rn his Com moner of tomorrow) W. J. Bryan devotes a page and a half to the Roosevelt Washington White House dinner inci dent. He says, in! part: "The action of President Roosevelt in inviting Prof. Booker T. Washington to dine at the White! House was unfortu nate, to say the least. It will give depth and acrimony to a: race feeling a3ready strained to the utmost. The race ques tion, so far as it concerns our colored populatkm, presents itself in four phases: First, the legal right of the black man; second, his educational opportunities; third, hs political privileges, and fourth, his social status." j Mr. Bryan argues that the negro en jovs ail these privileges except political, which is partially Icurtailed.and social. He concludes by saying: "The President may have invited Mr. Washington without considering the question that it raises, and Mr. Wash ington may have accepted from a feeling thit an invitation! from the President was equivalent to. a command. It is to he hoped that both of them will, upon re flection, realize the wisdom of abandon ing their purpose to wipe out race lines if they entertain such a purpose. ; "Professcr Washington's work as an educator wdl'l be greatly impaired if he allows it to 'be understood .that his ob ject Is to initiate the members of his race into the social eluts of the whites, and he will do injustice to those of his own color if he turns I their .thoughts away from intellectual and moral developments to the-Jess substantial advantages." i Hon. II G. Connor (Elder P. D. Gold In Wilson Times.) A pure Oegal standard, the laws ex pounded in the enlightened, righteous spirit of justice and equity, relieving every unjust oppression, strengthening every weakness of the body politic, and distributing the principles of justice equally to every channel of useful busi ness, should be sought and aimed at by our voters. The highest function of office to accomplish this is our Su preme Court. Therefore to fill this ex acted position with the fullest measure of legal learning, hedged with upright ness of character and integrity of pur pose, calls for our wisest and purest men. Among these the Hon. H. G. Con nor is reckoned, j Hence his name is offered as a fit man for an associate justice of our Supreme Court. Having known him for thirty years, residing in the samo town, acquainted well with his family, his habits of life, his legal learning and his integrity of character, I want to state (that there are none within my knowledge better fitted to crace this honored! position han he is. h !
