By the way, I like the walking skirts now so much worn by the young women of the town. They are mighty good institutions. As La rule the men are prone to slan der feminine costumes.

An Apparent Mistake. It was reported yesterday in town that a Mr. Beatty had died in Mocksville jail, confined there for safe-keeping. Mr. Beatty, it seems had becomo insane. We think that there is a mistake about this. There is a Mr. J. F. Beatty living at New London, who was recently seriously hurt by a train. Mr. Beattv is hard of hearing, and the train ran up on his wagon, killing his horse and injuring him seriouslv. He is somewhat better we learn from a Concord paper We tried to find out in Mocksvillle whether a Mr. Beatty had died or not, butnobjdy ha I heard it. We feel sure that the names have been confused.

Was Never is so Prosseroos i Cosditioa. Officers Elected. ' The stockholders of the Vance Cotton Mills met yesterday. It was expected that the mills vonld make an excellent showing, but the report of the condition of the mills surpassed- our most pleasant dream-?. To the aston ishment of everybody, this mill has declared semi-annual divi dends of 4 per cent this being de clared on the first of July, and th first of January. In the election of a boird of directors, Capt. W. C Caughenhour waschosenin the sead of Mr. N. B. ' McCanless. The board now consists of Dr.. J. A. Caldwell, who is President, Messrs, W.-G. Caugenhour, V. C. Blackmer, D. A. Atwell, W. F. Snider, A II. Boyden and Dr. C. M. Pool. The officers for the ensuing year are; President Dr. J. A. Cald well, Vice-President, Capt. W. C. Caughenliour, Secretary and Treasurer, Mr. W. C. Blackner, Manager, Mr. E. B. Neave. Under Mr. Neave's perfect management, we may look, forward to another year of unprecedented success. The Vance Mill is doing a great work for SalisburT, and it is with great delight that we note that one of few largest enterprises' is proving such a finunciai hlessing to all who are connected with it. No Dance Owing to the inclemency of the weather there was no dance last night. The y'ung men expect to have one tcr.ignt if the weather will allow it. They have a splen ded floor over Mr. Harpers new store. Tried to Break into a Store- A thief tried to break into a store across from our office about 12 o'clock last-night. Just what was done is not known, though there was a plain shattering of glass. This was a rather bold attempt at such a prominent place and we are pained to think that any rogue in Salisbury is so - fool ish as to attempt such a delica te piece of work at this hour. Of ficer Eagle and another police man were on the spot soon after the occurrence and the gentle man appeared we should have in troduced them. Thieves don't cut much figure in Salisbury when Mr. Eagle is on guard. Miss Jones in Wilmington. Wilmington Star: "An unusu ally large and select audience witnessed the play. The appear ance as leadii -g lady and interpre ter of the title role of Miss Marion Convere, a Charlotte society lady and member of a well known and prominent Southern family was the attraction. "The play itself was a pronounc ed success and Miss Convere, in makrng her theatrical debut to a fashionable Wilmington audience, exceded the fondest hope of her warmest admirers. As an actress of real ability and charm she has been .excel led by none of the many stars that have been with the higher class of attractions at the theat re th is season . EigCospisfCkirtered.

James J. Hill in an interview, today out line, what he and 1 is associate in the giant railroad "community of interests" are trying to accom plish. Instead of a combination of great roads under one system, he said he was trying to bring about an agreement between cer tain big systems of the northwest by which 44fiiction' would be pre vented and the roads operated more economically. He denied that he was here to see J. P. Mor gan aud John D. Rockfeller. The day brought no develop ment in the unfolding of the plans of the Hill-Morgan-Rockfellercom bine. Vice President D S Lamont was in close conference until after dark with several directors of the North Pacific and associates of Mr Hill, and developments are expect ed scon.

Tte Work Going Rapldlj oa.-Uanj bills Introduced- Yesterday's session of the Leg islature was marked by the read ing of the Governor's message and the introduction of some -important measures. Among the latter were bills to repeal the grounds established by the last Legislature for divorce, for compulsory educa tion for a legalized primary sys tem, to divide the school taxes be tween the races according to the proportion paid, to regulate em ployment in textile mills. The Senate passed a bill abolishing the Greensboro dispensary. Among the many important bills introduced in the House yes terday were the bills by Roubtree, of New Hanover; Craig, of Bun combe, aud Nichols, of Pitt; Stubbs, of Martin, and Wright, of Rowan. Mr. Craig's bill provides for the increase of the Superior court dis tricts of the State from 12 to 16. This will give the Governor the appointment of four new judges and solicitors and will requira a re-distncting of the State by the Legislature. It also will abolish the present criminal courts and the offices thereof. Nichols, of Pitt,. introduced the first bill to amend the Constitu tion so that the taxes paid by the white race shall be devoted to the education of the children of that race aud the colored taxes for the education of negro children. There were two other bills of like im portone by Stubbs, o Martin, and Wright, of Rowan. Mr. W right's bill for factory al bor prohibits children uuder 11 years to work in factories.: limits hours of work for children from 11 to 15 to 10 hours per day, and compels children between the ages ot 11 and Id to attend school three months each year.

A delegate of prominent citizens, headed by 3iayor wiiuams, win go toseeine president at an early day to pre sent the invitation to him. The protest of the New Oneans veterans against inviting the pres ident to attend the reunion will be ignored so far as Memphis is concerned. Horrible Massacre.
