It cainot ha bat exasperating to
erery Dmocrat in North Carolina to
read tWlatet "address." of the
I- imootK Senator Batler, to "The Peo
ple) of the United States."
Of con rae this "address" does not
' : manatefrom Senator Batlr, but
V l liraed bj Chairman Bntlr, of the
Popollit partj.
" Thxonghont the "address" the
. reader can bat too plainly discern,
" , "aoilhe wordt of a sincere partj
edr bat the cheap appeals of the
political demagogue; the insincority
- of feeling oyer the defeat of Mr.
" Brjan, ia; too thinl j disguised by the

' covert mariar directing' "the peo-
pl?ito hUielt:

" ; lie does nit inrotYe this State in

v "-Us. clear pieco of Batlerisna, cle?er
; political demagogy, which would

."lie, Batler pil foowing him in
. m hi motements.
Chairman Batler, in his official
capacity, is too keen a politician to
y be deceived by auporfieial matters,
yet two week before he election in
m printed intertiew in Washington
T ; City, he stated that Illinois, Michi-
gaa and Minnesota were safe, for
' j rBrymn, and that Ohio was trembling
in the balance, and in faTor of Bryan.
.The results in these States is too
-well known to need repetition, and
' rto one imagines for a moment that
Chairman Batler believed what be
' ' sid then, in fact there is serious
:, idinbt if Senator Butler really want
' ed to see Mr. Bryan elected Presi
dent of the United States, for there
is nothing but "words" to indicate
it, and his present attempt to attract
Attention to himself clearly shows a
. disposition to shut off Mr. Bryan,
and bring Mr. Butler to the front.
As to the Democracy of this State
it Las and'must always go down if it
seeks a political alliance with Sena
tor Batler. The past two campaigns
dearly prove this. Butlerism ia not
Democracy in any sense, and to save
itself the Democratic party mus:
steer perfectly clear of Butlerism
And Populism. Neither is in sym
pathy with Democracy, and being
antagonistic, there is certain danger
if not positive loss in dealing with
either.
From now on the country will sec
the acme of demagogism exempli
fied in the behavior of Senator
Marion Batler, of North Carolina.
- In bis claims for notoriety, aud pos
ings as a political patriot.
NO TmS rOR MOURNING.
The attempt on the part of a num
ber of Democratic newspapers in
this State, to pretend to see bad
times ahead, on account of the suc
cess of the fusion ticket at the polls
on November 3rd, is decidedly pre
mature, and if there existed any act
ual basis-or predicting dire things
for North "Carolina 0"n account of
the, victory of Jadge Russell and his
followers, it is still more premature
to denounce them, now, several
months before they take control of
the State Government.
Frrx a political stand point u is
a decidedly poor policy to assume so
far in advance ttiat Republican-Populist
control means serious things
for this State, and from a business
point of view it is very stupid.
The fact is that most of these
newspapers contended before t:.

ridiculous position more so than

when the fight is over.

MEANS CLOSER RELATIONSHIP
The settlement of the Venezuelan
controversy, a matter which at one
time eeemed to threaten the peace
of the two gteatest nations of the
world, brings with it not merely the
solution of a troublesome interna
tional question, but will also bring
together more closely tho two na
tions concerned.
The most important point estab
lished is that the intervention of
the United States was justifiable in
this case, which brings out our posi
tion as to the right of maintaining,
and enforcing the Monroe Doctrine.
And th i3 maintenance of our
claims, the right to interfere when
the territorial integrity of an Amer
ican government ii threatened,
places this countryin a much stronger
position to protest against further
aggressions against American gov
ernments, and make any claimant
leave the matter to arbitration, in
stead of such a claimant forcing his
own case by arms.
But however much the credit may
bo due to the course pursued by this
government in securing a set'lemeo!
of the Venezuelan question, it is a
matter of congratulation that it
has been settled, peacefully, and
that in the peaceful solution of this
matter, the two great nations are
certain to be drawn closer to
gether, and bound more firmly in a
a relationship which English speak
ing people c.n only enjoy.
Americans must especially feel
grateful and proud over this success
ful arbitration, and both nations
cannot lut feel a higher regard and
greater respeel for each other in the
future.
THE MEETING Or THE SYNOD.
The meeting of the Presbyterian
Syuod of North Carolina, which
held its Sod annual session in this
uity, last week, was a most import
ant gathering of this church, and
it was also a meeting that wvs pro
ductive of much good in th.s com
munity In this, as in all gatherings which
are held in this city, the people of
New Berne, regardless of denomina
tional lines, have borne themselves
in a most ereuitatue manner and
shown that they possessed the hos
pitality and liberality which the
people of this city have ever had the
reputatiou for possessing.
It was no mere word praise which
the Synod spoke in its resolution,
thanking the citizens of New Berne
for their open Hospitalities aud en
tertainment of the members visiting
here, but it was most sincere, and
was echoed from every heart of
those who came here as strangers and
visitors, but who left here as friends
and brethren of the entire commu
nity. Visiting membe;s of the Synod
who came from the western portion
of the State, who before they start
el were fearful of making the trip
on account of the distance, were en
thusiastic in their praise of New
Berne when they left, and were
eager to come here again.
New Berne, on her side, must say
that the Presbyterian Syuod has
been of good service in many ways
to her people, and there is today a
better fee-hug on all sices in this
city: tiie people of all the churches

man held an opinion of his own 1
which he felt in duty bound to com
municate to his neighbor, it was
easy for a bystander to see that there
was bv no means a general consen
sus of opinion as to what would be
the action of the bank directors.
The only people wiio seemed
calmly unconscious that anything
of interest was expected were those
in the Consols market, who, above

part very well.
Every one is getting tired of wait

of the expected broker who makes
the announcement, lie is a member
of the firm who are brokers to the
Government, and has performed
this otVice for a considerable time,
succeeding to it in the place of his
father. At length he comes! There
is no mistaking the final, "Sh!"' and
as he mounts the seat there is not a
i sound to be heard. II is first words
are barely audible to any but those
in the front rank, but he raises his!
hand to bis mouth and shouts for ,
the most important part of his dc-
claration. " Bank rate is four
per cent!'' Then he gets down,
and there is no need for the fellows
who occupy the prominent positions
to hold up four fingers because the
shout is taken up and carried round
and round the House. A mad
scramble to the telegraph office by
the clerks, a rush to their respective
markets by the jobbers, and a vast
amount of noise. Then as the brok
ers walk round and ask, "How are
things with you?' they are told
with half-sheepish shame, "Oh,
hardly any change. Just a sixteenth
or so off." Verily a small result to
compensate for the loss of time and
stoppage of business ! B it then it is
almost tho only excitement left to

Hundreds of Kleptomaniacs.
Dr. Kobert SalTord Newton, the

for shoplifting, gave an interesting

j ton lias made a special study of t he
subject, anil as he was allowed mm-

to become thoroughly conversant
with the Castle case. While Dr.
Newton believes that the penalty in
Mrs. Castle's case was unnecessarily
severe, he does not believe that the
fact that a person is a kleptomaniac
should exempt him from legal pun
ishment. 'The Scotland yard authorities,"
said Dr. Newton, "have a list of bOO
kleptomaniacs living in London.
All of them belong to wealthy fam

detectives: the k'eptomauiacs have
not revealed their secrets.

X-Rays and a Ruby.
Elizabeth Banks, a journalistic
writer in England, took her pocket
book" to be photographed under the
X-rav process, in order to see wheth
er the picture would reveal the pres
ence of the coins within it. This
it did, and as she was counting the
disks shown through the leather,
she perceived a small black point of
familiar outlines. Then she ex
claimed: "I have found my ruby!"
Opening the p-.-cketbouk, she search
ed in tile .-'pace indicated by the
Ol.u-k point on the photograph, and
ihere. tucked in between two folds
of K-athe-r. she discovered a small
ruby which she had lost some time
before ami could nowhere find. Ii
had slipped Irom a ring wlncli sne
wore at a moment when she was
taking something from the pocket
book, and bad glided in between
two thicknesses of leather. There
its presence was altogether unsus
pected, and would have remained so
until after the pocketbook was worn
out and discarded if this extraordi
nary method cf vlutography had
not revealed it.

From private information wele.irn
some interesting details about the

who were evidently unacquainted

snip. mey openea ure wnn tne

gow was in the habit of hailing the
coming or speeding the parting
guest. At first the British ilagshio
took no liotiee of this performance.
One ball hit an Italian ves-i 1. which
promptly slipped its cable and
moved out of range. When the Brit
ish admiral understood that the
Glasgow, only -00 yards off, was
tiring at him, he signaled that she
had better desist. The saluting guns
pausi'd a while, the skipper of the
Glasgow trying to decipher the sig
nal: then the lire began again.
Summoned to strike their Hag, the
Arabs had not the least idea what
this meant, and a crew of bluejick
ets bad to make it plain by hoisting
the union jack on the defiant steam

sink, and as it was obviously inde
corous for the unien jack to sink

"Yes siree, " chimed in tho hired
man, who came up just at that point in j
the f(,nv( Tsalieii, "I had to move w tli
the percessieii. An I wouldn't, of mis-eri
si t in what I did far r.othin. I put s.s I ,
pot through weth more siphts th.au any- J
t ody else in the hull outlit. " i
"I ii-i kf in je didn't come across any
moit: that was new an Martini than I
pome of the rest cf us," replied the old
gentleman in a blase (one of toh ration.
''I know of one thing thet ye didn't tee,
fur mother says she had her yo c.n ye
all the time. He-v ye pot any money
"Two dollar an sixty cents," was
tho f elf satisfied response1.
"Then ye didn't see whut Tru talkin
about. Ye run over to the-t store an
buy f! cents' wuth of Kuplish walnuts
an I'll show it to ye. I'll be over whnr
mother an Zeb is, 'causo it'll interest
thf-ni too. "
When the hired man ramn back from
his errand, the old gentleman was saying
to his wife: "I was out fur experience,
an ye can't pit experience without its
costin a leetle soiuethin. I learnt a new
panic, an I want Zeb an the hired man
tor know about it, so's tr-r put 'em c.n
their guard apain the wickedness of this
here world. All yo need is some walnut
shells an a paper wad. "
The members of his household fol
lowed him to the window ledge, and,
after a ft-w preliminary passes to loosen
up Ins muscles for feats of legerdemain,
he paused to remark:
"Now, ye'll umlerstaii, of course,
thet this here ain't i:o Ir-ssou in gam
blin. I jc-s' wantcr show ye how it's
done. When yo go (er town, ye'll
know jes' rz much about it (z them
sharpers does an bo on yer guard. It's a
game whur the man ez does the guessiu
ain't-geit no show whutsoniover. "
Ho manipulated tho shells nud the
paper wad in imitation e.-f tho man he
had seen at tho fair, and stepping back
said :
"Course, I don't want yo tor bet
nothin, 'causo that 'ud bo jes' like rob
bin yer. Uut it won't do no harm fnr
yo tcr mako a guess, to's ter show ye
how tho dag-on-cel swindle operates. "
"I'll bet ye my new knife agin that
buckhoru handled cue of yr-r'n thc-t I
kin pick out tho shell e z he z tho paper
wad under it," remarked tho hired man.
"I wouldn't le t yo do it. Don't yo
ondorstau' thet this is a skin game I'm
a-showiu ye?' '
"I eiein't keer nothin 'bout that. I've)
got that ther paper wad located an yo
da'sn't bet thet I ain't. "
"I da'sn't, da'sn't I? I don't like tcr
take no advantage of ye, but ye're a
man groweel an responsible fur yer own
acks. Put up yer knife. "
The stakes wero laid on tho window
ledge, arid tho hired man promptly se
lected the right shell.
"By hokey," exclaimed tho old gen
tleman, "ye'vo guessed itl It roust 'a'
been by a miracle. "
He tried it again, end this time not
only the hired man, but Zeb and tho old
lady, risked all their available, small
change. Again (ho amateur thimble
rigger juggled the shells, and with the
same result
"Better own up an quit, father,"
suggested Zeb.
"I won't elo nothin of the kind, " waa
(he reply.
In tho course of timo he issued
promissory notes for a saddle blanket, a
pair of boots, six pearl collar buttons, a
calico dress, a pair of bearskin gloves,
seven plugs of tobacco and $-1.50. But
he was not discouraged. Ho was pre
paring for another shulHeof the walnut
shells, when his wife exclaimed:
"Elihu, ain't it pur;y near train
time?"
Thcro -was a sirnnHaneoua rush for
tho gate. Their train had been gone
nearly 15 minutes.
"Waal, " said the old gentleman, "it's
disapp'intin tcr hcv te-r (-et here tell the
nex' cno gees, but we've had tho benefit
of the exposy, anyhow Ve kin alius
uror a moral from most anything that
! happens. It all g'es (er show thet the-ro
' ain't any way cf be-in re'iy safe in
games of chance, no matter which Side
j ye're on. "
j "Yes, "said Zeb, "it all come ter pass
'long of hevi'j ter kill timo in this here
place. "
" Whirr's the hired man?"
' "He told me thet, cz it would be a good
while tell the train went, lie reckoned
he'd take some of his winuin's an paint
the town a little bit."
! The old lady passetl around some reel
apples and remarked:
"To my way of thinkm, there's mi
cther eternal (ruth thet this afternoon
hez demonstrated. "
"What is it, Mirandy?"
"A fool an his money aro soon
parted. "
And her husband never 'ookthe trou
ble to inquire whether : he meant him
or the hiied man. Washington Star.
