W.C , NOV. 7, 1891 A Cotton PW'ker. Mr. Wiilis Lipscomb exhibited the practical working of a machine which he has invented for picking cotton out of the field. The picker was op erated in a large field of cotton near Atlanta, on Oct. 30th, and worked to the satisfaction of hundreds who wit nessed the trial. In a short space of time a bale was picked, and the leaves and stalks of the green from which it was taken, were uninjured. Now the question arises, what effect will the invention of such a machine have upon the cotton growing industry? Will it not increase the production about in proportion to the decrease it effects in harvesting and thereby render cotton raising with small far mere who cannot afford a machine, a losing business? Somjehow things will even up, however, much we may con trive and invent An excess of the filthy lucre is hard to get, and the straggle waxes intenser from each succeeding effort to relieve it. A Distant e Recorder. The latest application of the well known distance recorder is to cabs, the apparatus faithfully registering the actual distance traveled, and the proper amount the cabman should charge The. mechanism consists of two small boxes, one of which con tains the transmitting apparatus and the other the recording device, the two being connected by a flexible shaft. The transmitter is fixed on one of the axles of the cab and a spindle, actuated by a cam, operates a ratchet wheel which causes the flexible shaft to revolve. This re cords the distance on the dial in the interior of the cab in plain view of the passenger. The recorder, besides indicating the exact amount of fare due, also keeps a record on a card board disc at the back of the machine of the work done and the money ta ken in during the day. A cord atv tached to the disc of the recorder en ables the cabman to place the fixed pointer at zero before commencing a journey. In til Death or Divorce. Wilmington Star. The course of true love may not al ways run smooth, but it is apt to get thereafter awhile a'ter a fashion. So the misfit e wedding which failed to come off Wednesday evening be fore Judge R- '. Bunting's nuptial bureau got in on time yesterday morning at 10 o'clock between Frank Donaldson and Lizz'e Walkej, both of severe color. Justice Bunting wouldn't tune the machine uutil the costs were paid by the groom, then he made the agitated pair stand up and join hands. Then he got up, cleaned his throat and pulled down his vest and read the service. When Frank was expected to respond "I will," he said "Oh, yes," in erescindo. No salutati n was passed bt veen the officer of the State nd the bride, but he said " I wish you unbounded happiness, good peace and greater prosperity ; may roses cover your pathway and may your household increase forty fold " A colored friend then presented the happy, blushing bride with a yawn log hunk of baker's bread and the wedding feast went merrily on.

JSTotioe A Little Sunbeam- Oakland (Cal ) Enquirer. Even in the life of the grimy rail road engineer, whose existence is of almost constant danger, there some times falls a spark of light and a ray of human sunshine illuminates his smoky cnb, penetrates his greasy blouse and finds its way deep down into bis breast. A little incident happened down at the mole the other eveuing after the arrival of the overland train, which, thought of a simple nature will long be remembered by a certain C. P. er gineer. The great, iron monster at tached to the train was throbbing and puffing after the long and sinu ous trip over mountains sides and rocky defiles trembling trestles and marshy stretches. The din in the depot was deafening, but out of the chaos of sounds a sweet, girlish voice was heard welcoming home her parents, who had arrived on the train She was a little golden haired beauty, scarcely six years of age, with a quick intelligent eye and a loving nature, to which she gave full vent in the radiant and impulsive way she wel corned her fond parents back. At last they took her by the hand and proceeded toward the waiting ferry boat. As they passed by the engine belonging to the train the little one broke away, ran up to the big black machine and patted the driving wheels affectionately with her little white hands. Looking up at the smokestack, she said: "You good, big old iron horse, you have brought back my papa and mamma safe over the fearful mountains to their little, girl, and I want to thank you, even if you don't care for me because I am so little, And you, too," she continued, turning her face wistfully toward the grimy engineer, o was leaning out of the cab window ' I love you both." Then she kissed her hand to him and was gone like a ray of sunshine. Just then a fleeting sunbeam from the great orb sinking down into the Golden Gate came stealing through a chink in the depot and stole by the engineer into his cab. There was a strange look on his face for an instant, and all at once th9 depot was dark and lonesome. When he turned his head into the cab there were two light spots on the cheeks of his dust begrimed face. Rocky Mount, N. C.
