The steam gauge and the pop off valve were both out of order and did not give a true reading of the pressure or let it escape at the proper time.

' Congiee baa finally ' passed- Ph- deht'e Taft'e reciprocity bin,vwnieh has created so much 'comment throughout the country. This bill was supported by democrat and republi cans, and was opposed by democrats and republicans. Those who supported the measure elaua that it . will do great things for th country and we hope that they were, right in their eontention.K ;'Thoe 'wio opposed it .Maimed it would hurt the taxtamrmi we trust that they Were mistaken.- It is the opinioa of The JWspatoh that the bill will not amount to much one way or tho other. We rememher the great row in con gress a few years ago over the rail road; rate bill, which' at waa claimed would do o much- for the consumers of this country. This bill was enact ed as a law, and if it has ever been of any benefit to anybody except the the' railroads, we navo not seen any signs of it. The railroad rate law, creating the interstate commerce com mission is merely a great .clearing house for the benefit of the railroads of the country and in our opinion has never been worth more to the farmer or tho email shipper than a "last year's bird's nest."- It will be remembered that when every man who opposed it was brand- this- bill was before ' congress that ed as being a tool of the railroads, which of course, was false. In te discussjon. of the reciprocity bill every man who opposed this bill, if he was a democrat, has. been ac cused of being fn sympathy .with the ' ' interests " and having republican "leanings."'.; Every republican jWho opposed - the bill has been looked upon with Buypision by ell his re publican friends who supported the bill, all of which is unjuw and unfair. It is not democratic measure, but a pet scheme of President Taft's.i The law may . do some good,: and then again.it may do a groat deal of harm. It will certainly do tho farmers of this section no good. !

The Statesville Landmark has a new remedy for chills given it by one of its subscribers, Mr. Cornelius iiesler. The Landmark says: Passing the time of day, Mi. Kes- ler said he had been threatened with Chills but had so far escaped. He had observed the several remedies for chills, print, d in The Landmark re cent m and tohl of a new 'remedv. which had effected cures in two cases. The remedy is excitement. Chills, you know, appear on' certain days, with painful regularity, when they get good bold. - A lady in Mr. Kesler's family was a victim of cauls. Tbe day before the ohill was due she be came greatly , interested m certain domestic duties which were to be per formed next day, and so great was her interest that Sheforgot the chill and the chill failed to ttppear. 1 Another-case of which Mr. Kesler heard is a more striking illustration of the effectiveness of excitement as a chill cure. A citizen of East Monbo was "chilling," as they snj; and the day his chill was due be got into fight. ' A a result " e had no chill and bad-had none since. ..The lesson is, if you are a (victim of chills, got excited ; nave a row with somebody, or -do some thing to make you forget the chill and the ehul win forget you. ; Receipts at Orphan Picnic s Amount te Over Thousand DoUars. -: " Mooresville, July 28,-vTio vavioas sources .of revenue from the Barium Springs orphan picnic held here yes torday fcavr brought gross re ceipts up to $1,025.

A CALL TO PRAYER. Serious Water Situation U Oharbtt. a General , Call U Prayer Issued by Ministerial Association. Charlotte News.. , . So grav i th water aitnation in the city that tb Ministerial Associa tion feels constrained to act as a body in issuing general call to pray er by the Uisen f Charlott and Mecklenburg. -' All wiU mad the following with in terest, and no doubt, give heed: K A C;2 te Prayer. 1 As president of the Ministerial As sociation of Charlotte, I would suggest that he ministers and the people of Charlotte and of Meskknburg county, observe next Sabbath morning, July 30th, 11 aw nx, fts a time for special united, earnest prayer tor rain. . . Why not convert tb service into a prayer xaeetinxt To an intelligent, eoneeerated. ehnetian there can be no question s to the efficacy of prayer and the propriety of praying for rain. See James 5 46-18, "The effectual, fervent prayer-of a righteous man availetb much.' Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain ; and it rained not on the earth by tho epac of jthree year and six months.: And e prayed again, and the heaven gave tain, and the earth brought forth nW fruit." ' - While th earnest efforts of the city officials to meet the exigency of the situation are tof,be strongly commend ed, it wold be ;W11 to tear in mind that it is as aey for God to dry up the Catawba river as Irwin's creek. He is the Omnipotent God. Should this drought continue a few weeks lon ger and springsnnd wells in the coun ty go dry,- th loss of property would of course, be enormous; but think of the sickness tbajt might ensue and the suffering that might be entailed. I am persuaded that as a riehly blessed people tWe are becoming too worldly-minded! the tenoency is 'to eliminate Qodfroin life 's equation. Should not -this drought with its im pending calamities suffice to convince us that God) . dies not propose to be eliminated? TLarre we not previous ly sinned again t tiodT While we should, and "pray witnout eeasine," would it not be aoncODriate to' make confession of sin and earnest ted prayer 1 A. B. SHAW.

Is 81 mcient for Immediate Needs -Drought Causing Great Concern Among Fanners. While tbe city of Concord is being blessed with water sufficient to sup ply its immediate needs the continued drought is causing great concern among the farmers who hsve pas tures and water their stock from Rocky river, Buffalo and Cold water creeks. Buffalo and Cold Water are r radically dry and their bottoms re semble a long streteh of sand with an ocasional pool of water, and in some places a little stream about the size of a ribbon is flowing. Rocky river still contains a small quantity of water but for stretches along its course ther are only small holes. Sev eral of the oldest inhabitants say that such a condition has not existed along this stream within, thirtv years. Navy Department Notified of Where abouts of Ensign Young. Washington, July 28.
