CapU K, R. Jones exhibited a cotton

something remarkable. About the mid

-thought nor care, but wondering what it
would develop In conditions no altogeth
er favorable for large growth. ... x
Imagine bis surprise when he found
thai the stalk had reached a height of 11
feet a slie not often attained outside of
a specially fortlllz id field. The thick

73 blooms.

OPPORTUNITIES UNACCEPTED.

False Ideas Refirdlnf Labor. Too LUt
. 4 less Tt Accept Honest Tall.
Editor Jovbjiau W read your edi
torial la Sunday morning's paper with
great dead of Interest, and endorse the
sweat therein expressed. From careful
observation of the conditions existing In
our city f ok the past few years, w are
led to draw the following conclusions:
1st. That there Is a false Idea preval
ent among oar people In regard to labor
There seems to be many 1a oar midst
who feel that to toll Is dishonorable, and
this la especially true of the women
population of our. town. Many, many
women who do their own house work
seem to be ashamed to acknowledge it,
when at a matter of fact It should be the
pride of their life to know that they are
doing honest work to help maintain and
support those who axe dependent upon
them. The only honest living that can
be had must be earned by honest labor.
2nd. Another deduction from oar ob
servation Is that there Is a Ilstlessness
sbont our people that teems to make
them unfit for honest labor. This list
lessnest would be easily overcome If
they would make up thtlr minds that
they want to get out of the beaten roads
casting Idleness to the four winds of the
earth, and putting on the armour of In
dustry In its place.
These two deductions must be over
corns before industrial enterprises can
be made a success In oar midst It seems
a good missionary field for oar business
men to work for them to lncmlate In the
minds and hearts of oar people the prin
cipal of honest toll, and to faithfully do
that which they undertake. It Is an ap
palling fact to the writer that there is
so much evidence upon the streets of
our city of Idleness both In the boys and
girls, men and women. No community
can be prosperous and progressive that
has in its midst a lot of drones that are
like, parasites, sucking the very life's
blood from the body that they should
help to support.
We know there are opportunities in
which at least a good living can be made
by a class of operatives, that are abund
ant in this town, and yet from observa
tion we know that the opportunities are
not accepted, and a business that should
be humming morning, noon and night
ith the busy cry and click of machinery
Is standing Idle and rusting out for the
want of the laborer. The enterprising
and aggressive citizen who puts his
money In the manufacturing enterprise,
can do nothing without getting the la
bor to run the machinery. If the local
merchants want to Increase their busi
ness It behooves them to get to work to
fill to over-flowing with operatives the
one Institution in our midst that gives
employment to a class of labor that or
dinarily would .be loafing unless em
ployed by such institutions as the one re
ferred to. It would be hard to get other
institutions established for the employ
ment of labor when one In our midst is
languishing for' the want of that very
labor.

Speaking of this yesterday. Senator
Simmons, who was leaving for a visit to
New Bern, said that he did not suppose
that Mr, Oulon would be a candidate for
the position as it waa hit first session.
He said also that he knew Mr. Oulon
well; that ha was a deep student of af
fairs and was easily one of the best law
yen in Eastern North Carolina, and one
of the ablest young lawyers In the State
"Not only Is he a man of superior abili

FOR THE CHILDREN

Sir John MlUaia, the great painter.
began when quite a child to ahow
signs of the great talents which v. ere
later on to produce "Bubbles," "Cher
ry Brper and outer picture wnicn are
Well known even to children.
At six years of age Johnny MUlala
lived with his parents at Dinan, In
Brittany. The great delight of the lit
tle fellow and his elder brother was to
watch the French soldiers who were
constantly marching through the town.
The roll call generally took place In a
square, and on being disbanded each
soldier waa presented with a loaf of
black bread, which he stock on the
top of his bayonet and then shouldered
hla rifle.
On one occasion the two boys gazed
with amazement and delight at a great
drum major who waa covered with
gold trappings and wore a huge bear
skin, while he flourished a gold bead
ed cane.
Johnny Mlllais at once got out his
sketchbook and proceeded to Jot down
the giant into hla book. Meanwhile,
unknown to the little artist two offi
cers had come up behind him and were
greatly astonished to find such a baby
sketching so well. They patted the
boy on the back, gave him some money
and asked where he lived, and the boy
took them to his father and mother.
Then the officers took the sketch
back to the barracks with them and
showed It around as the work of a boy
of six. But their brother officers would
not believe this to be possible, so bets
were taken, and one of them went to
fetch little Mlllais and prove their
words.
In fear and trembling he came, but
soon showed he really bad done the
drawing by making then and there a
still better sketch of the colonel smok
ing a cigar.
Festhera From HauadkereaUcf.
Procure at a military clothier's four
or fire large plumes such as are worn
by officers. Take off your coat and lay
the plumes along your arms, the stems
being toward your hand. Now put on
your coat again, and the feathers will
lie quite smoothly and unsuspected.
Borrow a handkerchief from one of the
spectators and wave it about to show
that it is empty. Throw it over your
left arm and with the right draw out
one of the plumes from up the coat
sleeve, at the same time giving it a
flourish in the air, which will loosen all
the fibers of the feather and make it
appear much too large to have been
concealed about the person. Wave the
handkerchief again and repeat the op
eration until ell the plumes are gone.
You can carry enough plumes under
the sleeve to cover a table with, and If
you prepare a board or an ornamental
vase full of holes you can place the
plumes upright as you take them out
Where Did Be Hide Itt
Our dog Sport, a clever black
and
tan, was the pet of the family.
He had many playthings, among
which was a large, solid rubber ball,
with which he played continually.
Being too small (and also too much
petted) to be a watchdog, we succeed
ed In securing from one of our friends
a large St Bernard.
Both dogs then shared the fun of the
ball, which roused the Jealousy of
Sport
One day, seeing the ball on the floor,
he began playing with it as usual and
ran upstairs with it We searched all
over for the ball, but after that day
could find it nowhere.
Two years have passed, and our St
Bernard has been killed.
A few days after bis death we were
surprised by seeing Sport playing with
his ball.
We are Still unable to find out where
Sport hid it Home Notes.
A Coataollna Reflection.
When I am In my bed at night
And nurse haa carried oft tha light,
I eurl up In a oozy heap
And try my best to fall asleep.
But In the dining- room below
The shaded lamp are all aglow.
For when ray little day la done
The grown up day seems Just begun.
They have such lovely thing to eat
The table decked with blossoms sweet
And mother wears a silken gown
To welcome daddy home from town.
When X am lust as old as they,
I'll have late dinner every day.
And when nurse says, " 'TIs time for bed,'
My little boy shau go instead.

ringing. Jingling noise that Is familiar
When glassware Is struck, and imme
diately another guest covered the piece
with his hands so as to muffle the
sound. Every one present said. That s
right; stop the ringing.' I found out
on inquiring that when one causes this
ringing of a glass piece to cease tt
saves a human life from drowning.
How the notion- originated I cant ex
plain, but these people I speak of were
Intelligent and not generally given to
cherishing absurd notions. It Is said
to be a Scotch superstition, but none
of my friends could throw) tight on Its
origin."
A Story ot Caaarlea Jaaavea JPoa
A gambling story Is told of Charles
James Fox that rather reflects on his
honor. He was one ot the ardent ad
mirers of Mrs. Crewe, a noted beauty
of her day, and It is related that
gentleman lost a considerable sum to
this lady at play and, being obilgedrto
leave town suddenly, gave Mr. Fox the
money to pay her, begging him to apol
ogize to her for his not having paid the
debt of honor In person. , Fox lost ev
ery shilling of It before tnornlDC. Mrs;
Crewe often met the supposed debtor
afterward and, surprised that he never
noticed the circumstances, at length
delicately hinted the matter to turn.
"Bless met" said he. "I paid the mon
ey to Mr. Fox three months ago."
"Oh, did you, sir?" said Mrs, Crewe
good naturedly. -"Then probably he
paid me and I forgot tt"
A Witty Reply.
At a London dinner General, Horace
Porter was once referred to ;by the
chairman in the following way: "We
have here tonight General Horace Por
ter, and I coll upon him for a: speech.
The gentleman is like a slot machine
you put In a dinner, and out comes a
speech." The witty general rose and
replied with a quick fire of satire: "The
chairman has thought fit to liken me
to a slot machine. May t return the
compliment and say that he is like
one also? He puts In a speech, and
up comes your dinner." ?..d
