Wei', that was all there was to the la:.e- and it wasn't much, surely an idle lessoa learned at lazy noon but what followed was au experi ence. I set out upon a stroll dowu through the cypress districts of west Tennessee. Tbe weather was charm ing, a pink June, and the sunset that evening with a glow that prom i.eu rou:;t jJe adventure. Rain was poui.'g down a week later, and ro i!u; rle was nowhereios'ght. I went (0 :l bu 'n aud Jay in the hay to wait fo- iv. L!gbtn; ig struck the barn, and I tumbled out, stunned, scared half 1o dccth, and took to my heels across a meadow, Sojie one cried stop, and then a gun went off. 1 stopped,, and a man ran up aud arrested me. Lightning had set the barn on fire aud of course I was accused of iL I went with j the maw and stood near while he swore out a warrant for my arrest and then acknowledged that I was aware that I was in custody. By this time a number of furious citizens had arrived, and I began to fear less they might not wait for the slow processes of the law. My expe rience with the daily newspaper had taught me something of legal pro- cedure, and I asked the justice if I might have a change of venue. "Yy'hat's that?" he asked. "Thank you for a change of ven--ue," said I. This set them all a-laughing. I had never asked for such a thing be fore and did not know the exact word ing. I felt sure that I conldn'tmiss it if I were only polite. But I did miss it and they poked merciless jests at my ignorance.- After awhile court was called to order, mirth was put aside, and I was told that the charge against me was exceedingly se rious: that I must defend myself or spend much of my future time in prison. ;'I have but a very short defense,"' said I. "The truth is that I didn't set fire to the barn. I had no matches about me, and I was too wet when I went in there to set fire to anything. The things were set on fi-e by l:gu uing. -We giant all that, yonr honor," replied the man who had taken the prosecution of the case, 'but what right had he in the barn? And besides let him prove that the light ning would have struck the barn if lie hadn't been in there. To my certain knowieoge. tins uarn uas 1 11 !l 1 t been standing fo- the lst at) years, and I can n-ove that it was never - - - t struck before. It is well known in science that certain people attract lightning, and the law plainly says that, duu'ng showers these people should keep out of barns." 'Yes. sir. answered a lank man 7 at the rear end of the room. "You studied science for a number of vears didn't vou?" "I was professor of it for a long time, eir." "Well, can you tell by examina tion whether or not a man is an at- tractor of lightning?" "I ought to, si:-, for I was examiner for Itns part of the state."

He examined my hair, rubbed my head and then shook his own. should say, sir, that this would be a mio-btv darieerous man to be near O J - o . while lightning is flashing arcamd, "Then, sir, in view of the fact that this barn was never before struck by lightning, would you be willing to give it as yoiir opinion that this pris oner, was the cause of the well, we'll say accident?" "I certainly give that opinion, sir. "Well, then, your honor," continued the prosecutor; "there is but little more to do. Of course this man can not help his unfortunate attraction Roxboro, North for lightning; but, then, neither can' ! a mad dog help being mad.

I am sun- j ply a servant placed here to execute them. Yon appear to be a young man of promise, and this arraign ment is exceedingly unfortunate Have you anything to say?" I had a great deal to say. I told him that I had never heard of such a law; that I had been brought up almost under the shadow of the state house; that I had wri tten jip "many a police court,-- and that I didn't believe I had more of an attraction for lightning than any one else. - He gravely shook his head. "You perhaps did not know," said he, "that what is law in this part of the state may not be law in other parts. This division of the state has a peculiar local right, ceded to it at the time of the Louisiana purchase." He had me there, and I could say nothing "We get many of our ideas from the French, and while they may appear ridiculous to the move Anglo-Saxon par is of the great commonwealth we but theve is no use arguing with you. I may explain, however, that persons anyicted under the scien tific code are not sent to the regular state penitentiary, but to a pnso,n down on Bayou Loag. It is a rough place, and I regret to see you go there, but there is no need to express sympathy." "Before direct sentence is passeed," spoke up an old man who bad hither to said nothing, "let us see if there is not some way of saving this man. There is among the old statues which we were permitted to take om the French a clause which says that, when a man has been con victed under the scientific code he may be saved by some reputable young woman, who shall come for ward and offer to marry him. Now, who knows of a woman who would be likely to marry this maa?" "We are obliged to job," declared the prosecuting attorney, spring1 ag to h;.s feet "We can. save him. I know of a woman." He wrote a note aud gave it to a boy. "Present this to Miss Lily Mayfield," he said. Lily! That wasn't bad. Be te: to take a lilly in all her glory than to toil in a prison, and so I waited. We had not long to wait. "Here she is," said the prosecuting attorney. And then there stepped into the room the most hideous creature 1 have ever- seen. A nightmave put upon its feverish mettle to portray the hof. rible eould not produce a more re pulsive human be" ag. I grabbed my hat and darted throngh the door. I did not look back when they .yelled at me to stop, I did not look back until I had run more than a nr'le, but at every jump I could tht horrible woman's face. ,l A year laer I was in Nashville The legislature was in session. One evening ina street car I heard two country representatives talking.- "Oh, yes," said one of them, "old Bob is full of revenge. You remember that a newspaper roasted him for something during the last session. Well, sir, I'll tell you what he did. the paper failed, you know, and one of the fellers that had been connect ed with it went out on a stroll, and, he strolled down into old Bob'a neighborhood. The fellow didn't know Bob, but Bob knew him and? saw him passing by and put up a job on him. And luck came his way, for the fellow went into a barn, and just then the barn was struck by light ning. I forget how they worked it' but they arrested the fellow, who was considerably a greenhorn, by the way, and carried him through some sort of a trial and pretended that they were going to make him mar ry a woman, but she wasu t a woman but a man that had been fixed up for the" occasion. Well, they say that fellow skipped through the door when he saw the thing that was te be- his wife and ran a mile without looking -back. Yes, old Bob is full of revenge."

HOME FIRST: Carolina, Wednesday Evening August 22nd, MISLEADING STATEMENTS., 1 A , IT , i sert that the House of Representatives , . eauorseu tne ssenate bill when tbev ;, -' ; accepted it, w-.te thoughtlessly aud , 1T . hastily. 1 he House did no such' thing. It was distinctly and emphat ically stated by all the speakers who had anything to say in reference to it, including Speaker Crisp and Hon. W. L. Wilson, who had charge of the House bill that the Senate bill was not such a bill as the House desired, but was accepted as the best that could be secured at this time. They could' have expressed their dissent from the Senate bill in no more -emphatic way' unless by rejecting it entirely, the result of which would have been to go before .th country without any tariff legislation at all and with the McKinley bill in full force for time indefinite, for there is no certainty that the Democrats will control the next House of Represen tatives, aad they ceai iily would not they wentbefo.-e the con j try with out any tariff bill. To have done so would have been not only the cul mination of stupidity, but from a party standpoiat stticidal. The Dem ocrats in Congress who differed from the Senate bill saw th's a. id like sen sible men decided to accept it. As further evidence that they did not eddorse the SeaaU- bi toe Dem ocrats iu tne House proaiplly fol lowed up their acceptance of it by pasddg four separate bills pnii'ng sugar, iroa ore and bituminous coal, th ee of the ma: n articles of eo:i ten Mo d. and b&fbed wire on the free list. This fact aloee, if there had been no other expression of dissent by the House, would pn t to rest the asser tion that it endorsed the Senate bill. Itis a mistake, also, lo denounce the Senate bi VI as n6 better than the McKialey bill, for it is a decided approvement on the McKinley bi1!, and gives a reduction of duties wb;ch radges all the wav from 10 to 100 per ceat. A bill that does that is cer tainly a gaiu to the peopie, and a decided movement on the line of tariff reduction. Wilmington Star.

The crop prospect never was bet ter than at present time. The corn crop is unsually promising. The to bacco is a good average, and the Ju ly cotton crop is extra good. Some of our farmers are finding out that there is more money in sheep vhan in cotton and tobacco. To raise them costs so little it can scarcely be coun ted and 100 per cent, a year on the investment is a very moderate calcu- lattion of the profit realized. War ren ton Record. .

Gov't Report Jocojuumuiv RUDE ' Comiig to the Front. The activity of North Carolina iu the manufacMU-rlog lice in recent years is attracting general attention. Along the railway lines in the Old North State travelers seeateverv sta tion one or mare new factories, and the majority of these enterprises are co;.ton .snflls, although-there . is, of course, a fair, proportion of tobacco factories. We do not believe that any other form of development would create a more i favorable impression. Foreigners and Northerners alike are surprised to see these unmistakable evidences of material progress, and they sound the praises of the State long after they have crossed the bor der line. North Carolina is in "line with Georgia in this regard. The people of these two Slales have come to the conclusion that the factory is the1 thiug.

Atlaa ia Constitution. The Rep-Pops. The Republican leaders who atten ded the Pop-Kep convention at ltal eigh have but one idea, but one rea Bon for existence. They are besotted with the 'thought that through a combination with the Pops, they may be ab.e !to get control of this State's government, have a majority in the Assembly and elect two Uni ted States Senators. To do this they are actually prepared to endorse the Pop ticket with its two wicked Dem ocrats, one Pop. and two Republi cans. So evident is-the intention to surrender principle for a possible chance at the office! that it would surprise no one to hear that the Re publicans in State convention assem bled had endorsed the administra tion of President CJevelaod for the sake of possibly securing the sup port of his admi 'ers. The whole move of the combiners is oue to dis gust every decent man. The Demo cratic party should like to be proud of its enemies, but it is impossible to regard this Pop.-Rep. side-show with anything like respect. That such a surrender of principle should succeed in North Carolina is impos sible. The Eep.-Pops. are nearer the promised land now than they ever will be again. Stight Security. The practical friendship is illus trated by the following .necdote : A gentleman had long been attached to Cardinal Mazarra, aodmuch esteem ed by that minister, but little assisted q his finances by court favor, one day told Mazari a of his many prom- ses and bis dilatory performance, The cardinal, who had a great regard for the man and was unwilling to lose bis friendship, patiently explain ed to him the many demands made upon a person in his. situation as minister, and which it would be politic to satisfy previous to other requests, as Ithey were founded on services done to tne state. "My Lord," replied h;s compan-on, "all the favor I expect at your hands is this, that whenever we meet in pub lic you will do me the honor to tap me on the shoulder in an unreserved manner." In two or three years the friend of the cardinal became a wealthy mail on the credit of the minister s attentions to him; and Mazarin used to laugh, together with his confidant, at- the folly of the world in granting their protection to persons on such slight security. The Ramsqurs Beat Columbus to the Place In a Popalist powwow, held in Morganton some time ago, Rev. Mr. Whitener, a!
