A Handsome Sum
Dr. C. E. Taylor.President of Wake
Forest College, succeeded in raising
six hundred dollars a few evenings
since out at Wake Forest, for the en
dowment of the college. He expects
in a short time to make it one thou
sand. This, as we understand, is
equivalent to fifteen hundred dollars
under the proposition of Mr. J. B.
Bostwick -to give one dollar for
every two dollars raised for the en
dowment of said college. This offer,
iu our judinent, will largely increase
the endowment fund.
The fruit crop this year has been
almost a complete failure here as all
over the country. Mr. T. W. Swan
who is usually so successful says this
year he has had nothing to sell in this
line but about two bushelB of pears.
Last year he sold about as many every
day besides shipping 100 bushels.

Let the Ladies Move.
It has been shown many times.that
when a church or auy other organiza
tion is in straits, if the ladies take
hold of it, the trouble soon disappears.
Let us think what the ladies of Ral
eigh have done in days past for our
churches and benevolent institutions.
Our State Fair has not always been a
grand success. It promises thi year
to eclipse anything before it. But to
make it the largest success possible.
we think the managers would do well
to assign some of the work to the la
dies of the city.
A Suggestion.
One hundred and seventy six stu
dents are now on the rolls of Wake
Forest College, and every day new
names are being entered. We would
urge the people of Wake Forest to
take advantage of the boom the Col
lege seems to be enjoying just now,
especially the property owners to
build up the town. Build handsome
residences at once for which thre is
much demand just now. We under
stand that Prof. Lanneau is unable
to procure a house for his family; also
the Rev. Mr. Gwaltney, the newly
elected Pastor of the Church, is un
able to take his family there for want
of a house. Build houses gentlemen
and supply the demand at once. Out
side uf the requirements of the peo
pie for residences, it would seem to us
that the erection of buildings would
be a most admirable investment for
capitalists.
Nam Jones' Sermons.
The Rev. Sam Jones will commence
his meetings in Wilmington on Thurs
day, September 25th, and continue
same for ten days. The Messenger
will employ expert stenographers and
reporters, and proposes to publish

The Daily Messenger will be printed
in enlarged form and mailed to sub
scribers for eleven days, commencing
September 25th, and ending Sunday,
October 5th, for fifty cents each sub
scription. We propose to let Mr. Jones
talk to our readers,and shall endeavor
to give his leading sermons without
curtailment or garbling.
The Messenger will be sent on trial
to new subscribers four months for $2
It is an eight page paper a complete

Personal Mention.
R. E. Gaines, of South Carolina,
has been elected Professor of Mathe
matics of Richmond College.
Master Hubert Pauli, who was re
ported as improving a few days ago,

who has been very ill at her residence
on North Person street for the past
three weeks.
Dr. W. E. Eichardson, of Mark's
Creek township, who has been sick
for some time, has, we are glad to say,
so far recovered as to be able to be in

his many friends.
Mrs.Lanneau,wife of Prof.Lanneau,

Prof. Carmichael, of Wake Forest
College, passed through the city on
vesterdav evening on her way to
Sylva, ' ia Jackson county, N. C

The Editor's Bore.
He sat and looked at the busy edi
tor for about fifteen minutes steadily.
I Finally he yawned sleepily and re
marked:
I "There are some things in this world
that go without saying."
"I know it," snapped the editor,
'but there are too darned many things
that say a good deal without going.'

Sweet Pickle.
A sweet pickle equal to that made j
of citrons, can be concocted from the
rinds of watermelons, the portion of
that fruit which is often thrown
away, tfou two pounds or rinds in
clear water until quite tender. Drain
them well. Make a sirup of two lbs.,
sugar, one quart of vinegar, half an
ouuee of mace, an ounce of cinnamon
and some roots of ginger boiled until
thick. Pour over the melon rinds
while very hot. Drain off the sirup
the next day, heat it again, and
again pour it over boiling hot. Be
peat this for three days in succession,
after which it may be left on and the
pickles set away. They will keep for
two years.
Hypnotism in Religion.
Atlanta Constitution.
Hypnotism appears to be spread
ing, aud is assuming different forms,
and the cranks have now given it a
religious complexion.
A woman evangelist, Mrs. Maude
B. Wood worth, who has been con
ducting a revival of religion in St.
Louis, preaching in a tent to thou
sands, has created great excitement
by her hypnotic powers. Men and
women seemed to be completely un
der her influence, and during her
preaching they became frenzied, and
hundreds were found stretched on the
platform, or ground, apparently in a
dead stupor, while others cried, dane
ed and shouted around the evangel
ist in the wildest manner,
What is the secret of this woman's
power ? The reasoning people of St.
Louis were alarmed; the doctors were
asked to investigate her case, and
they pronounced her insane, and pos
sessed of great hypnotic powers; that
the trance in which she throws her
auditors is hypnosis; that she is do
ing harm to thousands and should be
locked up in an insane asylum at
once.
That she is insane, there can be no
doubt. She tells the people that she
has held communion with God and
conversed freely with the devil ; and
her energy and eloquence have cap
tured them completely.
This feature of religious excitement,
hypnotism, or whatever you may call
it is confined, for the most part, to
the ignorant classes notably, the ue
groes, many of whom, in the illiter
ate districts of southern and western
states, do not believe that they haye
religion unless they become uncon
scious and " go into a trance."
There were 2,050 farm mortgages
foreclosed in Kansas during the first
six months of this year and they rep
resent an indsbtedness of over $2,000,
01 0. The farmers of Kansas are nat
urally wondering where their profits
come in under our scheme of protec
tion.
Women are coming to the front iu
business life. There are nearly 15,0C0
of them engaged as commercial trav
elers in the United States. The de
mand for women to do clerical and
office work increases all the while,
and thev are better paid for their
work now than ever before.

Do You Believe in Dreams ?
A good many people do believe in
them, and undoubtedly things often
do occur which bring vividly to your
mind dreams that you have had. Now
whether this is a mere coincidence or
whether there is really a hidden pow
er of the mind when reposing in sleep
to penetrate the future and read
events to come, is doubtful. We do
know that we have dreamed of things
that did afterward occur; and again
we have had dreams that never have
come true and which we sincerely
hope never will. Stint time people
dream when they are not asleep.
They may thiDk they weie afterward,
but they were not. We had a dream
not long ago something like this: We
were taking inventory of stock in
January, "Jl. We thought we were
extremely well pleased at the show
ing of our years' work. We had near
ly doubled the record of '89. We
asked ourself why have we done so
much more business this than list
year. A hundred voices seemed to
answei at once: " Y u have kept bet
ter goods, more goods, and you have
sold them lower than your neighbors,
therefore you are entitled to the suc
cess you have attained." When the
voices reached this part we felt so
' good we awoke. Will this dream be
i a reality to ue in January, '91? We
' shall see. Swinaell.
