Von hare struck the right key . " persist in it, "keep everlastiugly at it", and while results may -uot ma - terialiie at once, yet be assured that i in. this, as in all other instances where a good cause is persistently advocated, It is sure in the end to be successful. ' We look for very great resnlts from Your Campaign of "Industrial "Progress. Your suggestion the other day of -shelling Bast Front street Was a good one, and I am heartily in favor of it, after upper Pollock and Broad streets have been similarly treated. The latter streets are the traffic ajteries of. the city, over which are ,drawn-lhe"tarion3 "vehicles that visit . OS from the country, many of thein heavy laden, and at the end of their journey the drivers, if not the poor horses, naturally look for better travelling when in onr corporate limits than they did upon the coun ty roads, but they traverse half the city before; they find any improve ment. This should not be so, and we therefore insist that the pref- nee should be givn the vehicles of traffic rather than those of pleas- are (who would be benefitted by the improvement of East Front street) 'which now have a number of splend . id streets upon which to drive. It is to be hoped that the agitation for the return of the revenue cutter Winona may result in her early re turn to these waters, for aside from the pleasure obtained by having as citiiens, the clever gentlemen who are officers of the vessel, there is a ntilitarisa side to the question. The monthly pay-roll leaves more .than one thousand dollars per month with our merchants, and house owners, and in a town of this size adds in no small measure to the volume of our currency. By the way, it may not be gen erally known where the name of the cutter is derived. It ia true it is named for the city of Winona, in llinn, the home of Mr. Windom, who was Secretary of the U. S. Treasury when the vessel was con tracted for, and who named her. but the name of both city and vessel is Indian and is written and pro nounced We-noh-nah and nv ans the first female child." The movement in the export of I amber still goes steadily on, but unfortunately the prices rnle so low that there is little or no profit in it, and the regrettablo fact results, that onr splendid pine forests are being destroyed without enriching the section despoiled. The mill men in answer to a query 2i as to why they do not curtail the -A output or shut down mills until the increased demand would result in better prices, reply that such ac tioo would result in throwing a vast nan-ber of persona out of employ ment. Loggers, raftmen, mill em ployers, etc., and would lamentably add to the army of tho unemployed. Hence there are the usual two horns to the dilemma and they choose the lesser.

Vardell returned from Davidson C'ollege Commencement last night. lie said to the Jul uxai.: "We had a big time at Davidson. The alumni will erect a memorial building in honor of Col. W. .T. Martin Au alumnus from every class was appointed to urge subscrip tions from his classmates. The work of raising the subscriptions will bo actively pushed. The amount raised so far. as announced by President Shearer is ?,0". The New Berne boys will bo home in a day or two." Mr. Yard oil was re-elected presi dent of the alumni association. Wo take the following from the Charlotte Observer: "Kev. C. C Vardell, of Now Bertie, then delivered the alumni oration. Mr. Vardell has taken the load in the movement to eroct a building to be used as a science hall on the campus. He made no set oration but devoted his remarks entirely to this subject to which he had devoted his utmost energies with so much enthusiasm. At the be ginning be quoted these words from wholy writ: T will bless you and vou shall be a blessing.' Of many men, he said, has this been true, but seldom has the world been more blessed than by the life of the man whose picture hangs yonder (point ing to the picture of the late Col. W. J. Martin ). Great applause. We realize what a beggardly thing language is when we try to portray the character of Col. Martin. Ap plause. "As president of the alumni asso ciation, Mr. Vardell said the duty had been imposed upon him of un dertaking the raising of some memo rial to the memory of this great and good man. Some years ago, while at Blowing Rock, Col. Martu had expressed the hope to him (the speaker) that some man might be found who would endow a much needed science hall at Daudson. But today, the speaker said, while no one man had been found to make the necessary contribution, the loyal alumni of Davidson would, he felt sure, take hold of tho matter, and in honor of the memory of this great man, raise the lunds to erect this building which he so much needed and so much wished for. Mr. Vardtll then gave opportunity to any in the audience to express their views." Enthusiastic respon ses were made by many of the alumni. llantinc Bear In Jane. E. T. Bender, of Polloksville, was a caller at tho Journal office yes terday, and while resting comforta bly in one of the Journal's easy chairs told the following story: We had been losing hogs from our place, and so I made up my mind to see what was taking them off. Iast Friday, with dogs and a party of friends we set oil into the woods in the neighborhood of Cat Fish Lak . The dogs soon ran something which we judged was a cub boar, although we never saw it, for a female bear soon appeared, which we shot. She was in poor condition. The next day. I went out with John Oliver, and the dogs soon started a boar. We both got sight of the bear, which had Oliver's dog by tho jaw. We both tired, shooting the boar through both fore paws. Oliver rushed onto the bear, the animal standing up and attempting to claw Oliver but as his paws were oroken he could not get any hold. Oliver at same time was using his long knife, slash ing the bear over the head. I rush ed up and shot the Dear through the head, releasing Oliver who was not injured himself but was mourning because his dog had been hurt. After dressing the boar, which was a male, we weighed the carcass, which animal was 'JT'I pounds. A larsre Turkey, Crete and Greece. On a small scale the Armenian spectacle is being repeated in Crete, the only Turkish province in Eu rope. The Cretans, mostly Chris tians, are a bravo, intelligent peo ple. Chance brought them under Turkish rule, although ethnologi cally and geographically they they should belong to Greece. They partake of none of tho characteristics of the Mussulman, and their whole history is one continued protest against Turkish rule, with periodical uprisings to thow off the hated yoke. They are Greeks in all their aspirations and affiliations, in language, in habit, in morals, in outward appearance even and they hate th- Turks as cordially as his Satanic majesty is said to deteat holy water. Just at the present time another revolution is in progress, caused by the brutal excesses of the Turkish soldiery. Upon several occasions the Cretans have made so successful a stand against tho Turkish troops as to have forced from the porte concessions of semi-autonomy. Hut in these instances Turkey always proved true to its record of treachery, duplicity and false dealing, for soon the same oppression would rule again. Tho sympathy of the people of Ijdreeco is auogeiuer wiwi ireie. lhev would like nothing better than to step across the ancient Iyicedacrnonie peninsula and again uko the Cretan Hellenes a part of jen)ijJ But Greece is powerless, be- cause Great Britain continues her ;.U,vonl H rtst nn irh Tnrl'pc and muwvui Rasaia'a hand would lie heavily upon the poor little kingdom if she were to attempt to do aught against Russia's traditional fuo but latest ally. Another trouble stands in the way. Greece is not rich and dote is poor. Turkish rule has done there what it has done wherever it has sway; it has impovished the country. Nor has ( Jreece yet recovered from the effect of Turkish sovereignty. The thirty years of independent government !:ave not yet sulliced to to (ill her exchequer to the extent that she can safely undertake the task of wresting Crete from Turkey and rehabilitating the island. In some quarters it has been thought that Germany might come to her aid, but this, too, is unlikely, bee ause William i; too anxious to cultivate the fiiendship of Nicholas. But the power of Europe might at least seek to prevent tho repetition of tho Armenian atrocities, oven on a minor scale, in a European coun try, and to that (Mid ought to re monstrate with the Turk.

A Havana dispatch states that the "Spanish newspapers,'' moaning Cuban papers that uphold the au thority of Spain in Cuba, "teem with articles on the loyalty of Span iards in the republic of Mexico, Uruguay and the Argentine."' The dispatch remarks that this loyalty "is too well known to require ex tended notice," for over 3,000 Spaniards of Argentina and Uru guay are supporting Spanish rule in Cuba as soldiers. This is surprising unless these 3,000 volunteers in defense of Span ish rule in Cuba are merely mercen aries. But what is far more sur prising, if true, is the statement from the same source that Spanish merchants, incensed at the strong anti-Spanish feeling in this country, have declared a boycott against American products, The story is that the Spanish merchants of Mex ico, Uruguay and Argentina have 'unanimously decided to cease further purchases in the United Stares." This hostile irction is treated in the Havana dispatch as though it would be fatal to our export trade to the three republics named. The report of our treasury bureau of statistics is quoted to show the value of our exports in the three repub lics, the implication being that we will lose all this trade unless we mend our ways and sympathize with Spain instead of the insurgents. Even if the Spanish merchants were the only ones in those coun tries importing merchandise from the United States, and if the people wore in sympathy with them in this boycott business, we might lose our export trade of some $10,000,001) a year, or perhaps '2 per cent of our total exports. But there are plenty of merchants who do not sympathize with Spain in this Cuban struggle and who will take the place of Spanish merchants as purchasers in our markets. The people of the Spanish American republics, wo may be sure, are not in sympathy with Spain. Since they have thrown off the Spanish yoke they naturally sympathise with Cubans of the same race with themselves, who are struggling to do the same thing. They will not refuse to buy Amer ican goods because Americans sympathize with the Cubaus as they do. Americans will not worry much about this alleged extraordinary boycott. They will readily perceive that it is a work of Spanish imagi nation and that it exists only in the ; minds of Spaniards in Cuba. The boycott story is indicative only of Spanish ignorance in regard to our export trade and of a Span sh des ruiratinn in fnlm wriii-d-i r r-vm r-i f a rr a wild graspiug at straws Chicago j ' Chronicle. 1 CYCLING HUMOR.

The bicycle in its wild state is the most unruly of vehicles. No matter how oasily avoided the obstacle in the road may be, the fiery, untamed bieycle will make for it with a iieisisteney worthy of a bettor cause. It is only when the bicycle is thoroughly broken that the rider can trust himself to it with the least assurance that he will not break his nock. Boston Transcript. The Bicycle's Iclicate Mecbanlgm. The manufacture of the modern bicy cle presents one i if the i i i sr complex and delicate problems known to mechanics. The reason is that what scientists term tho "factor of safety" is lower in the bicycle than in almost any other me chanical product. In high pressure guns, for instance, the factor of safety is oven as great as 20 that is, guns are made 20 times as strong a.s is theoretically necessary for the strain they are to bear. Lu ordinary guns the factor of safety is 12, in boilers it is about G, in bridges usually 5, and in almost every other form of machine it is at least 4. Such wide margins of extra strength are doomed as au offset to errors in theoret ical computations or defect in material construction. With the modern light construction in bicycles it is reduced to a very small margin, being as lov in instances as 1.25. Such being the case, it can be understxd readily why tho makers of standard high grade machines maintain a rigid system of inspection. In fact, every well appointed bicycle factory has a thoroughly equipped test ing department, in order that there may bo no miscalculations or guesswork in the material entering the construction of their wheels. Boston Transcript. A Car For Bicycles. ' 'A baggage car exclusively for bicy cles is a novelty of the near future, I believe," remarked H. P. Alvord, a traveling salesman of New YTork. "It is going to be a necessity for every road running suburban trains from the great cities. Though the courts have declared that bicycles are vehicles, the legisla tures of our own and some other states have already passed a law compelling tho railroads to check them and carry thorn free a.s baggage. The most impor tant question to the wheelman, for few of them would mind paying a small fee to have their wheels transported, is whether the company will assume the responsibility for the safety of tho wheels and deliver them in the same condition they were when put on the car. This has never boon fully deter mined. It is hard to prevent an occa sional injury under the present arrange ment, and, as I said before, a special car will have to be built very soon. They have them in France, wiicre the wheels are hung on racks about tho ear, and are thus protected, and space is also economized. " Washington Times. Wheels For Widows. Widows who have given away their un y A o unu nuu mama iiviii iii i iin j as an impropriety will delight to know that a wheel has been patterned for their special use. Tho "mourning wheel" is now thoroughly approved by mourning etiquette, and tho widow can t;ike her morning spin with the comforting as surance that she is doing quite the proper thing. Tho mourning wheel is an appropriately somber affair of solid ebony blackness unrelieved by any gleaming steel or nickel. It is not nearly as conspicuous as tho yellow and blue ones which are affected this year by some women, and surprise is no longer awakenod by the sight of an occasional black wheel. Tho widow who rides does not ruako any radical change in her costume. She still clings to her crape bonnet and veil, uusuited as the latter is for combat with a stiff breeze. Her suit is of some soft black material, similar to that in her other gowns, and is made with a closely fitting bolted waist and short skirt. New York World. Birds and TSlcycles. A cui 'dus thing about tho English sparrow has often been noticed by wheelmen. When the cvclists first took to the streets a few years ago, the birds used to hop up in the air and skip away before the wheel was within 13 feet of them. The rapidity of the motion seemed to startle them out of their wits. But now, even with the increased speed of pneumatic tires and high gears, tho birds show little or no fear of the wheels, waiting till tho last moment before fly ing. The wheel is often less than two feet from them before they take to flight. One sparrow over on Clinton street, Brooklyn, three days ago hopped to one side a few inches and allowed tin-wheel to paxs at about 20 inches. New YTork Sun. A Flaw In the Ohio Cycle !,, The baggage law recently cuacted by tho Ohio legislature miscarries.

Americans sometimes say in connec tion with tho anniversary of an impor tant event in American history that if they had only thought of it in time they would have made some suitable celebration of tho day. We take occasion therefore to remind our readers that Juno 1-1 is tho one hundred aud nine teenth anniversary of the day when the stars and stripes were formally adopted by tho American congress a.s the national emblem of the weak, poor and strug gling little republic of the United States. Tho men of that day had few guns and little clothing and no money at all. They had only determination, faith and General George Washington. With these forces behind them they unfurled to tho breeze and to the y( s of all the' world the flag of tho United States of America, to which congiess gave its formal sanction Jul e 14, 1777. Dobbs Ferry, on .he Hudson, claims the honor of being tho place where the American flag was lirst salutwd by a Britisli man-of-war, after the peace wrus proclaimed which made the colonies in dependent forever of Great Britain, to tho infinite regret of American dudes 100 years after. Teachers and parents cannot too strongly impress patriotism in every 6hape and form on the rising generation of this country. It is always in order. Lot flag day then bo celebrated with pa triotic exercises in every school district in the country. Let the story of the flag be told to old and young by the best or ator tho neighborhood can secure. Lot thrilling incidents of tho Revolution and pioneer times be told. Let there bo pro cessions of school children, with fife and drum. Liot the boys of the Young America drill companies appear in their uniforms, with shining faces and spark ling eyes. At these celebrations there is one poem that should always be recited with a ring and a swing. It is tho one commencing When Freedom from her mountain height Unfurled her standard in tho air. During the exorcises let "The Rod, White and Blue" always be sung. At the close of all lot man, woman and child lift their voices in mighty waves of harmony, which shall roll up to tho very gates of heaven the chorus of tho glorious "Star Spangled Banner." Air Motor For Street Cars, Horse cars have been mostly supplant ed by o.'"ctric unci cable ears everywhere except in New York and one or two other old fogy cities. Cable slots, trolley wires and storage battery cars have been put iu their place. And just at this time when all arrangements have been completed at large expense for operating street cars by electricity and the cable under ground comes the word that these de vices are to bo eupplauted at once by something better, simpler and less ex pensive. The new motive power is as old as the hills and its supply is inexhaustible. It is nothing more than common atmos pheric air, compressed to a force of from 1, 000 to 2, 000 pounds to the square inch, stored iu a powerful steel tank and gov erned and allowed to escape regularly and efficaciously by means of valve, cyl inder and piston rod and lever, precisely as steam is now managed. And again, the only wonder is nobody ever thought of it before. The compressed air is put into steel tanks under the car seats. It is con trolled by levers suc h as the motorman of a cable car now uses. There will be no danger from electricity, no slot and no wires overhead or underground re quired. The only steam needed will bo that by which the air is compressed into the tanks. This invention proves that there are several ways and excellent ways of do ing almost everything. One thing is to be said of tho portraits of the Boer officials that have appeared. They are the presentments of determin ed, brainy men intellectually every whit the equal of Chamberlain, Rhodes or any Englishman of tho lot. The Boer leaders may be a bit slow in making up their minds, but all the better. They weigh all sides before they speak, and they know just what is involved in their decisions, which was more than the British in South Africa did when they planned the Jameson raid. The English made a fatal mistake in underrating the Boers in connection with that raid. If they are wise, they will not repeat the mistake. Things occur occasionally to take the conceit out of John Bull, and that Jameson raid was one of them. Ice should be cheaper this summer in stead of higher, as it . is in some of the cities. It docs not now cost so much to cut it as formerly since the invention of the electrical ice cutting machine. This is a device somewhat resembling a reap ing machine. It propels itself. The op erator sits upon a sled in front of the cutter and guides it. In one minute it will cut a groove 100 feet long and a foot deep upon an ice pond. Ice is a necessity of even the poor in the great cities, for they have no cellar.-;, no wells and no cool caves in the ground. Extortionate prices for ice in summer work as much hardship as ex tortionate prices for coal in winter. Among all the congratulations offered to Czar Nicholas on his coronation the main cue appears not to have been thought of at all. It is that he got through it with mt being blown up by jyuamite.
