The News and Observer was en tirely right in a criticism a few days since of the unseemly haste to further the interests of such gentlemen as hoped to succeed Judge Simonton, who was still living. This is not the first in stance of the kind but none the lees disgraceful. Common decency should have deterred speculation as to a successor until Judge Simonton’s death. these prowlers entered a residence grappled the arm of a woman, when her screams awoke her hus band. But the burglar had van ished in the meantime. It seems that the prowlers invariably get away without harm. One citizen told me that he had devised a way to trap them if any burglars enter ed his house. He had fixed a wire from the porch to his bed with a bell on the end which would give the alarm as soon as any one enter ed the room. He also had his pistol under a pillow for immedi ate action. — Charlotte Observer.

Yesterday he introduced in the House a resolution looking to the appointment of a congress ional committee to investigate the charge that he received remunera tion for speaking for McKinley in 1896. If the point of order raised against the consideration of the resolution is sustained Mr. Dalzell, who preferred the charge, will not be relieved of any embarrassment. Says Big Fish Attacked Him But He Finally Put it to Flight. A number editors are about Judge be unwritten of North Carolina saying harsh things Peebles that would did they know the man. Whatever opinion (one may hold of his judicial temperament, he is a man of ability and a gentle man. A casual acquaintance with him extending over a period of fifteen years has served to strenghten the impression. If he has erred in his capacity asajauge our faith in the man’s intregrity impels the conclusion that it has been a mistake of the head. The Development of the South The New York Sun says: jy^ii iii*C73G07000 bale cotton -Crops at good prices, a 25,000,000 ton coal '“rtput, a 2,5000,000 ton pig iro gSH^Tuction. to say noth ing of lumber, tobacco, fruit and other crops and products, the Southern States are creating con ditions unknown in their previous history. While the measure of prosperity has varied in the differ ent lines, all have contributed to an unprecedented activity anda sub stantial increase in general wealth. Manufacturing enterprises have taken the place of the old time plantations and have established new channels of employment for the people. The South has pros pered, and its prosperity contin ues. The results of all these are man ifest not alone in the cities, but in almost every town, village and hamlet. New buildings appear everywhere. Sewer systems, water works, electric plants for lighting and for trolley lines are fast becoming as much of necessi ty as they are in the North and the West, and the South has the. mon ey to pay for them. Municipal bond issues have reached a huge aggregate, and have in general found ready sale at good prices, of.un by the immediate local mar ket. Southern ports have done an enormously increased business and Southern railways have been hard pressed to handle their traffic. Norfo’k, Vs.-, April 26 —Jerry Daniels, a shad fisherman of Man teo, N. C., reports a thrilling bittie with a whale to the south of Hatteras. Daniels, after fighting three quarters of an hour, says he succeeded in putting the monster to flight. Daniels) who owns a smack, had finished his haul yesterday after noon, and was making for port when to the stern of the vessel he saw the whale bearing down on him, the mouth of the big fish wide open. He spread all sail and headed for deep water, with the whale in pursuit, madly lashing the water. The fisherman, when the whale was in reach, seized a boathook and dealt the leviathian a terrific blow over the head. The whale, undaunted, showed fight, but he worsted the big fish, which disap peared beneath the surface. Dan iels was exhausted at the conclusion of the battle. He says' the whale was some seventy-five feet long. Schools of whales were sighted last week off Virginia Beach head ed north. Danief^reputation for .v-^^aMHH^HHlj’ the best. FOUR JAF.
