turn Story of the Lay's- Out at
Great Peach Orchard.
In the Horse World J. H. Hale, the
greatest peach grower In the world,
tells of his struggles and successes in
the business. He gives the following
Incident in telling of the laying out of
his orchard:
Trees are cultivated more easily if in
proper alignment, so after the field was
plotted I set the surveyor running lines
for the rows of trees. He had not been
.working long when one of the old plan
tatlon darkies came, hat in hand, and
Mid: "Cap'n, I dun reckon It cost a
right smart o' money to do it dat jray.
Lulu and I can do it a heap sight
quicker and, I reckon, about as well as
dat ar man wld de machine. On in
quiry I found Lulu was his old gray
mule. I had my doubts, but at his ear
nest pleading consented that he should
make a trial way down on a corner
block, where It would not show: much.
Old Henry cut three long straight poles
from the woods, then some tufts of
cotton were tied around the tops of the
poles to make them white and more
easily seen at a distance. The poles
were just the length of the distance
wanted between the rows, so a stand
ard of measure was always at hand.
Placing one pole perfectly upright on
the corner of a block where the first
row was to stand, Lulu was beaded for
the farthest end of the field, keeping
the poles always in sight midway be
tween her long upright ears, so that
Henry had a "sight" that made bis
aim true. I overlooked operations until
the third row was finished and then
rushed to stop tbe surveyor and turn
the whole job over to Lulu! The .work
Was absolutely perfect, and now, with
more than 250,000 trees in what I am
often told is the best arranged orchard
in America, I give due credit to the
darky and the mule for the orderly
way In which the trees are planted.
The Transit' at ta Cy.y.
The gypsy has always been known as
a horse trader. Possibly he is about to
change his business from horses to au
' tomobiles. ' At any rate a band of gyp
sies is this season traveling across the
country In a gayly decorated automo
bile car. It is divided Into three com
partmentsbedroom, dining room and
kitchen. The body of the vehicle Is
painted a deep green, and the running
gear is red. - The decorations are in
gold. The chief of this twentieth cen
tury gypsy band is enthusiastic over
the automobile. He is able to make
fifty miles a day without any trouble.
As yet he Is still dealing in horses, but
his successor may prefer to- abandon
horses altogether and to go through tbe
country with a number of automobiles
which he will be ready to barter lit
horse trade fashion. Worcester Spy. '

The Foar' Gateways to the Famoas at
sort Where a Cckbrattea sfaa
Historic Event is to Oc
car Soon.
The foot gateways to Roe sole Waal
where It is proposed to celebrate la sp
proprtsta form the historic events con
nected with Sir Walter Raleigh's efforts
at eoloalsatioa mora than four knadred
years ago are, Elisabeth City, Xdsntoft ,
Wsshlngtoa and New Bern. From soma
oas of these la oar State ' each visitor
must embark for the Island. And, for
tanatdy. these towns afford ample facil
ities, so that there aeed be no monopoly
at any one of them though it Is said
that already there is manifest a disposi
tion to waat to monopolise the "way,"
bat happily there Is no opportunity for
such a plan, as each of these fine towns
ass advantages to offer, once the celebra
lloa Is under way.
The enterprise of Elisabeth City will
no doubt see to It that commodiout
steamers make dally trips to snd from
thelslsnd, and the hospitality of that
goodly town will be equal to any de
mands made upon It. Col. Creecy, that
desr old fsther in newtpsperdom will
vouch for his city.
Certainly no less will be expected of
historic old Edenton; the town Itself,
with Its traditions, buildings snd people
dl associated with the early history of
the Old North State, will find that hun
dreds of visitors will make that delight
ful towa a gateway to the celebration.
They will provide jaunty, spick and
spsa steamers to transport tbe throngs
who will journey their way. Both towns
will show to tbe world tbe beauties of
ths Albemarle Sound. '
Those visitors who mske Wsshlngton,
Beaufort Co., their gateway,- will ex
plore Pamlico river and Pamlico sound.
Such steamers ss the wldeswaks Wash
ingtoalans will provide, will be sure to
please the public. This promises to be
one of the busiest of the "ways", as her
railway facilities are good and her su
perb passenger a teamen will have many
landings to mske down the rlyer.
New Bern, that beautiful town at the
confluence of the Neuse snd Trent rivers
will also be one of the popular "ways"
for visitors to the Island. She already
ha a line of comfortable steamers which
make regular landings at "Skyoo" the
port of entry to our historic Island. But
these will be added to and the old steam
ers painted and scrubbed snd made as
bright a a dollar for the great event
These New Bern boats will explore
the whole length of Pamlico sound In
finding the mecca of its visitors; In fact,
each of these Interesting esstern towns
hu advantages peculiar to Itself, snd the
enterprise of each may be depended upon
for making the most of its special fea
tures, regardless of its neighbors.
Among the advantages whjch the
sound region will reap from the celebra
tion, will be in creating a stimulus to
the building of the great Inland water
way from Wilmington to New York, by
the U. S. Government. This would af
lordan Inland, or land protected water
way ior moving eituer tuo ustj ui uuui
merce between the points indicated, and
would be of incalcuable vdue to our
country In time of war with any foreign
power, or when storms rage in the open
sea.
It might also bring about tbe finishing
of some of the projected lines of railroad
in that region, as well as itlmulate the
opening of other steamboat lines. It
would bring to the attention of the
world the greet advantage of soil for
profitable trucking; of the water for
profitable fishing and of the forest for
profitable lumbering. Tbe cheapness
snd ease with which life msy be sus
tained In that region will be sure to at
tract the attention of the home seeker,
snd the possibilities above enumerated
will attract the investor, the farmer, the
fisherman, the lumbermen and the can
ner of fruits, vegetables and fish. These
are, briefly, some of the advantages to
be gained by the residents of the sound
region from the proposed celebration.
There Is some confusion among our
people la regard to the "exposition"
feature. It will not be aa exposition in
tbe ordinary sense, at all. Ia the build
ing called a museum will be shown his
toric objects, replicas of Incidents and
events In the history of the colonies
planted there, and pageants of the same
chsrscter will be shown In the open dr.
There, will dso be In the museum, cos
tumes, arms, wares, etc of the time; on
the shores of Roanoke Island there will
be a camp of Indians In tepees, engsged
In the ordinary . occupations of Indians
nuking bsikets, blankets, bows and ar
rows- sad the like, just as were found
four hundred years ago by Amanas and
Barlowe, These will be studied and pre
pared to form that part of the celebra
tlon which Will appeal to the eye; while
a great literary feast will be ipresd dally
before the visitor, consisting of lectures,
orations, sketches, etc. These features
show at S glance the character of the
celebration and will, by their novelty,
prove of great Interest to su visitors.
Mnhtalaa Merer1 Strike the Sea.
Professor John Trowbridge of Har
vard bus lately made, a series of exper
iments with electrlo sparks six feet in
length which, be thinks, show that
lightning never strikes the surface of
the ocean. His experiments were un
dertaken with a view to volatilizing
water for the purpose ,of obtaining a
strong spectrum of water vapor. . But
he found that bis sparks, of high elec
tromotive force and as far as possible
resembling lightning, always refused
to strike the surface of water and
passed instead to the edges of the ves
sel containing it Tie also found it ex
tremely difficult., to pass' powerful
t;irks from one stream of water to
another. An interesting conclusion
which be draws Is that "ft does not
seem . probable that lightning dis
charges pass through regions in the
air of heavy rainfall.''

bee to send bis proxy to Raleigh, u
there wu to be a League meeting Sat
urday night, to divide the Charlotte
players among the New Bern, Greens

Charlotte quit the league, and gave Up
its franchise, therefore what can Its
players claim from tbe Executive Com

It looks from this point, Hkea Ashen

As every team manager knows quite
well, Ashenback hat (inured and talked
about selling this and that player for
weeks past. s
He hu attempted to sell to Knoxrllle,
to Atlanta, to any' one who .would buy.
His "world beaters" have been hawked
about at constantly falling prices, and
no one wsnts them. ,
And now comes the proposition to
"divide" the players, (and who are left?)
among tbe teams that are left,, and
not one of them but has been offered
these men before this.
What is the ma'ler ? Surely Charlotte
paid its team, so that Its members are
not In need of charity ! Or is It a scheme
which means filching tbe League treas
