SIX MONTlis TBADK.
Flrat Half of 180 lUeord Brcakar In
Volume.
Nw York, June SO Bradstreet's to
morrow will aay: Though seasonably
quieter In many lines, tbe strength of
the general business situation remains
unabated and tbe half year closes with
the commercial and financial community
contemplating satisfactory returns. In
tbe volume of business done the first
half of 1899 will cerlaiuly rank higher
than the best hitherto experienced and
the notable rise in prices, which was
auch a feature of the past spring, bas
done much to reconcile traders to tbe
admittedly small margins of profits
which modern business operaiions tend
toward making permanent.
Touching tbU matter, it might be
added that staple prices today are in a
majority of instances well above quota
tions ruling for some years past, the
general level, in fact being the highest
since early in 1993. In some Instances,
of couree, notably In iron and steel,!
recent advances have brought the level
of prices well above anything reported
since 181)2, though it is to be remarked
that much of the business In that indus
try this spring was at old levels.
That the traasportatlon interests have
shared, to a large degree in tbe business
resulting from several years of large
crop and active demand is proved by
tbe current good return, the beat prob
ably reported so far this year, and indi
cating a progressive gain over all previ
ous record (or the six month, notwlth
sunding the steadily loweriug rates of
transportation.
The labor situation hss been one of
the most satisfactory features of the half
year's business, voluntary advices hav
ing raised the compensation of thous
ands of operatives, and labor trou
bles being conspicuous by their ab
sence till toward tbe close of tbe period
under review, when railures to agree
upon wages and hours in the Colorado
smelling industry and in tin-plate manu
factoring rendered a large number of
workmen idle.

Wabhikoton, June 80. Since the an'
neuncemeut that about 10,000 volunteer
were to be mustered into tbe army for
service in the Philippines tbe Presi
dent bas been deluged with applications
for commissions.
Almost every congressional caller bas
one or more applicants whom he presses
upon the President's attention.
Tbe President requests all his visitor
to file their application with Adjutant
General Corbin.
At the same time he makes lt clear In
a general way that the policy of tbe ad
ministration In granting commissions
will be te give preference to volunteer
officer who showed hbillty and Who per
formed valuable service during the
Spanish war.
Some regular officers art also to bo
given volunteer commissions In the be
lief that one Or two regular officers In
the regiaw-nt will be of great advantage
The number of officers to bo com
missioned I being carefully guarded' to

During the past fonror five months
there have been no less than eight incen
diary fires at Wilson. The commis
sioner of Insurance has returned from
that town, having apent several days in
Lin
taveaUgation of the fires. He ha
net vet comuleted it. Under a new law
ft ia made bis duty to investigate and re
port on all Incendiary fires.
A mile of the track of tbe Rlchmond-
Ridgeway Railroad has been laid at tbe
Rlilgewsy end. A narrow gauge railroad
on tbe Richmond end ia trying In every
conceivable way to obstruct the building
of t lie Richmond end.
Revenue Collector Duncan announced
tarly in tbe week that he would make a
let of changes (n the revenue force. He
announced tbe changea as follows: Miss
Flora Creech relieves 8. P. Mason, aa
stenographer, the latter relieving W. P.
King as clerk, King relieving W. G. Pool
who at bis own request relieves S. A,
Hodgln as general storekeeper, Bodgln
relelvlng N. A. Brown (Democrat) at the
disbursing desk. James H. Toung
colored, ei colonel of the Third Regi
ment of Volunteers and devoted friend
of Governor Russell, relieves John E.
Cameron at tbe brandy desk, Cameron
becoming general storekeeper. W. J.
Sutton, of Bladen', who was Governor
Russell's favorite for treasurer of tbe
Atlantic ft North Carolina Railroad,
relieves J. B. Holland as deputy collector.
Collector Duncan will have a little side
talk with Holland and offer blra some
other kind of "pie," "something equally
as good."
The collector says: "I have sent In
the names of 125 storekeepers and
gaugera, to tske the place of Democrats,
and, God willing, none of the latter will
be left. I am pleased to be able to clean
them out so early, like the Democrats
did our people In tbe Agricultural De
partmeat. These are all my own ap
pointments and 1 stand by them."
Before the corporation commission
there waa argument .h. the Southern,
Atlantic Coaat Line and Norfolk 4
Western Railroads against the order re
ducing to ten tone the "minimum car
load" of commercial ferterlizers. W. A-
Guthrie appeared for tbe Norfolk A
Western; Messrs. Drake and Meuifer for
tbe Southern and Mr. Williams for the
Atlantic Coast Line. The Seaboard has
transferred its case to the Federal
Court.
Tbe figures got mixed as to tbe in
crease of valuation per mile on the main
line of the Atlantic Coast Line and its
Wilson A Fayetteville and Petersburg
division, by tbe corporation commission.
Tbe increase of these by the corporation
commission Is from $18,000 to $25,000,
Tbe increase of valuation of the prop
erty of the various transportation com
paules approximates 80 per cent., and
nearly nine-tenths of the Increase Is on
the Southern and Atlantic Coast Line
lyatems,
Returns are rapidly coming in to the
Agricultural Department as to the con
dition of crops up to June 80. Officials
ay that the return show that crops are
In very fair condition.
The board of public bulidlug and
grounds met and took step to nullify
tbe action of the chairman of tbe board
of agriculture in ordering that the State
Museum exhibit In the front or louth
ectlon of the State Museum should be
removed and tbe corporation commission
given that part of the building.
The reason for tbe firing of such an
order by the chairman i a puxzle. Tbe
board of agriculture did not order that
the corporation commission be given
any part of the Museum. The executive
committee at it meeting did not, as a
whole, act on It, bat only two member
voted for It. The chairman at that meet
log mad remark in ridicule of the
Museum, this being to first time that
aaytblig save the highest praise ha
been heard from any North Carolina, or
Indeed from anyone, who ha aver Men
tbe Museum. Tha Official of the Agri
cultural Department are naturally
pleased that the Museum win remain In

IF I HHOI'LU DIE TO-NIGHT.
If I should die to-night,
My friends would look upon mj
quiet
face,
Before tbey laid it in its final resting
place,
And deem that death had left it almost
fair,
And laying snow-white flowers against
my hair.
Would smooth it down with tearful ten
derness,
And fold my bauds with liugering caress,
Poor hands, so empty and so cold to
night.
If I should die to-night,
My friends would call to mind with lov
lug thought,
Some kindly deed the icy band had
wrought;
Some gentle words the frozen Hps had
sdd;
Errands on which the willlug feet had
sped;
The memory of my selfishness and pride,
My hasty words would all be put aside,
And so I should be loved and mourned
to-night.
If I should die tonight,
Even hearts estranged would turn once
more to me,
Recalling other days remorsefully;
Tbe eye that chilled me with averted
glance,
Would look upon me aa of yore, per
chance, And sofieu in the old familiar way.
For who could war with dumb uncon
scious clay?
So I might rest forgiven of all tonight.
Oh! friends, I pray tonight,
Keep not your kitset for my dead cold
brow
Tbe way is lonely, let me feel them now,
Think gently of me; I am travel worn;
My faltering feet are pierced with many
a thorn,
Forgive, ob, hearts estranged; forgive, I
pleadl
When dreamless rest la mine, I shall not
need
Tbe tenderness for which I long tonight;

Be master of the olouda.
Let them not master thee;
Compel the sunshine to thy soul,
However rough the tea.
Be not as those who own
Nor hope nor glow of faith;
Beyond the clouds tha light remains,
And true life conquer death.
Be thou of good cheer yet,
Though dark and drear tbe wi) ;
Th loogeat night wears 'tin to dawn,
And dawn to perfect'Jsy,

Possess thy soul In calm,
Let patience rale thy heart,
And la gray thadea of clouded time
Bear thou tha hero's part.
There thalt thou know the flush
Of happy, radiant days;
For be who trusts Ood In the dark
I taught aew. tongs of praise.
