RALEIGH, N. C, AUGUST 8, 1891
Mr. J. B. Paschall. of Black Creek,
Wilson county, lost about one hun
dred and twenty thousand feet of
lumber by Are last week. His mill
and machinery were not injured.
Charlotte Democrat. Articles of
incorporation were filed for a new
corporation to be known as the Blake

The amount of capital stock is three

In the little State of New Jersey
according to the New York Sun, there

The American farmer is being slowly

An editor of a Wyoming paper in
forms his readers that the Southern
editors who attended the Editors'
Convention at St. Paul, "treated the
old flag with as much respect as their
Northern contemporaries did." The
fact that the editor thought it worth
while to make a statement of this
kind conveys the impression that
there are some people up there who
have mistaken ideas about the South
ern editor, who is in fact about as
peaceably disposed an individual as
can be found anywhere. He is chiefly
occupied in hustling for an honest
living, and is incidentally trying to
make this naughty world better, and
is not frittering his valuable time
.away with nursing enmity to the old
;flag or any other flag. What he wants
chiefly is more subscribers, those who
pay in advance preferred.

hundreds of picnic parties make their
way to the plateau on the summit to
obtain the magnificent view from the
top. Early iu the morning, while the
sun is yet hidden behind the far off
Berkshire Hills, people can be seen
wending their way to the summit. It
is a glorious sight when the great orb
of day lifts his golden disc from be
hind the Berkshire Hil's aud illumin
ates the whole valley of the Hudson
and the eastern watershed of the Cat-
skills. Again at the sunset the iron:

Jfo Advocation.
Here is a portion of the examination
to which an old lawyer told me he
was subjected when he applied for
a license. The oldest member of the
examining commtftee interrogated
him :
Are you familiar with any game of
chance ?"
"No, sir."
"Don't you know how to play any
game of cards V
"No, sir."
"Surely you understand euchre ?"
"Never heard of it before."
"It can't be possible you never in
dulged in a game of draw poker V
"Yes, sir, it can. 1 am a member of
the church and don't know one card
from another."
"Well (after a long pause of aston
ishment), young man, we'll give you
a license, but how in the world you're
going to make a living for the first
two or three years after you start to
practicing law is a mystery to us."

An Actor TV ho Wants Death.
Philadelphia Record.
A well dressed, white haired man,
Apparently sixty years of age, walked
into the Thirteenth street police sta
tion last night and asked the Sergeant
"What he could do to keep him from
committing suicide. He said he was
an old actor in hard luck, and he
wanted to end his life. Sergeant
Coopei told him he could lock him up
until morning. The would be suici
de said, that that remedy would not
be sufficient, and he guessed he would
take a turn around the block and
try to work it off. With this he strode
out into the night.
School Teachers Taxed.
Pottsvillb, Pa., Aug. 8 -Michael
B. Dormer, one of the east Norwegin
township school directors, who is
charged with issuing illegal orders
and defrauding the township out of a
considerable sum of money, was giv
en a hearing today. A number of
witnesses were examined, and the
hearing consumed nearly the whole
day.
A lady teacher testified that she
gave $40 to secure her appointment.
Michael Kenney, it was said, received
$15 for part of a day's work. Dormer
gave bail for his appearance at court
he Major Could Pray, Too.
In an English city, recently, an or
dinance was passed refusing permis
sion to the Salvation army to parade
in the streets and go through their
drill. Eva Booth thereupon called
upon the mayor and tried to obtain a
permit for the army to take its usual
out of door exercise. Her arguments
being of no avail she dropped on her
knees in the mayor's parlor and asked
the Lord to give him a new heart.
Eva counted without her host, says
the New York Herald. The mayor, a
dovout Scotchman, had no objection
to Miss Booth praying, but he had no
idea of allowing her to be at it alone.
He also fell on his knees and fervent
ly prayed that a new heart might be
vouchsafed to " the law breakers" as
he termed the Salvationists. Eva,
finding her knee drill ineffectual, rose
and left the mayor master of the sit
u at ion.
