There were about ninety ticketi sold t the station here. Mr W T Hill began moving his print ing office and bicycle ahopa Into the newly completed store adjoining tie one be already occupied. There will be a meeting of the di rector! of the Circulating Library at the roomi of the library at 6 p. m. today. A fall attendance is desired. The lmproTementa out on Dunn's A venae are indeed encouraging. Several pretty cottages hare recently been erect ed out there and three more are being fiamed, Borne of the tobacco towns are not Willing to boycott the products of the American Tobacco Company. That shows that the trust is getting In Its work already. Four men from Morenead made a record catch of mackerel Saturday, They brought In 202 fish ranging in weight from 1 to S pounds. The fish were caught outside of Cape Lookout. It may be of local interest to know that Virginia-Carolina Chemical stock touched the lowest point in the history cf the corporation, 19, high 21 J, market closed at 20 yesterday A gentleman of this county showed a sample of tobacco for which he had been offered five cents a pound this year. Last year for the same grade of tobacco he received from twenty-five to thirty cents per pound. Last night while Mrs Susan Anderson who lives on Broad street was crossing a bridge which covers a gutter located near her home, she fell and sustained aevere injuries, nearly breaking her leg. At a large mass meeting of the tobac co planters and merchants held in Kins ton yesterday resolutions were passed denouncing the trust, and deploring the inadequacy of the State laws to control the situation, and approving of the course taken by the Retail Grocers and Merchants Association. The Greenville Merchants Association have declined toco-operate with other associations in the proposed boycott against the American Tobacco Company. They say that the time has not arrived for action. If it is not time when the price of tobacco, with a short crop, Is forced to two and three cents a pound, then it will never be. A drinking fountain is badly needed at the A & N C station. People waiting for the train are often put to Inconven ience to get a drink. If a fountain was flowing there, many who resort to the nearby bar room to get a drink of water and-substitute beer, would drink at the fountain and never think of the beer. The Retail Grocers and Merchants Association had a well attended meet' lag last night The object of the meet ing was to make preparations for the Haas meeting to be held Saturday noon, as previously announced. There will be another meeting of the Association Frl day night. Aa affray case was tried in Justice S R Street'! court yesterday. The offenders were David Speight, Lena Blount and Manilla White, all colored, of course, The two had a little "mill" up on Kil- monlc street, Saturday night, and the Justice closed the affair by requiring bpeight to pay $2 and costs. The wo men were let off with costs. Mr SB Rice left last night on the steamer Ocracoke for Johns Hopkins Hospital for the purpose of having an operation performed. He has been suf fering a long time with a wen on his " neck. He wishes to thank all who gave htm assistance, for without it, it would hare been Impossible for him to have gone. ' The fanners and merchants of New port and WDawood have organized with a membership of three hundred, the ma jority being tobacco farmers. They ei press themselves as being determined to fight the trait to the last ditch. That's the right spirit, and if the tobacco farm era throughout the tobacco belt will , take the same atand before the trust gets ' In Its work, the fight will be easily won. Aa enterprising grocer exhibited some meat on lower Middle street yesterday upon which was plae d a placard an nouncing that It would be sold for ' cent a pound. The attention of an old colored "auntie" was called to the low priced meat, whereupon she exclaimed "Gawd bleaa my soul I I'se gwine to hab one more meat ob greasy greens." The old woman had been paying 18 cents for meat, and was astonished at the sudden reduction, but observed that she "specs dem ITorfen gemmen done got sorry for de pore cuilua people."

This condition of af faire le causing serious alarm among the earnest people of France, who are forming temperance societies all over the country In an attempt to combat the habit of drinking. Veat rMkit Dlm. Ihe gourmand will not agree with Carl Snyder, who speeks In his "New Conceptions In Science" of a future Test pocket dinner of pellets as "an en gaging fancy." Mr. Snyder tells us that It was the French scientist, M. Berthelot, who said several years ago that our food some day would come to us from the chemist's laboratory and not from farms. The tendency has been In this direction for many years. As long ago as 1856 Emerson aakl In "Na ture": "They say that by electromag netism your salad shall be grown from the seed while your fowl la roasting for dinner. It la a symbol of modern alma and endeavors." But M. Berthe lot does not atop here. "His bold imagi nation," says Mr. Snyder, "has looked forward to the day when from the test tube and its mixtures life Itself may come." Harper's. The DUtila Is u OM 0e. It Is an extraordinary circumstance that the two oldest and most vexatious complications with which the latter day diplomacy has been beset should be centered In the Island of Newfound land, tbe most ancient colony. One of these entanglements Is the French shore question, the other la tbe Atlan tic fisheries Question. Both had their origin in the troublous times of the eighteenth century, and the legacy of irritation and International bickerings which they have proved is an eloquent testimony to tbe suplneness or inepti tude of the British statesmen of those days, who trafficked in tbe peerless fisheries of Newfoundland with every power that had to be conciliated. P. T. McGrath in Nineteenth Century. ASr With Tkoaaht. "Out of the rest" states that a lec ture by Emerson marked the awaken ing of President Garfield's Intellectual life. He was a young man, and Emerson's personality no less than his subtle thought affected Garfield so powerfully that when he came out of tbe room in which the lecture was delivered the whole mountain that rose over tbe town seemed to be on fire. Yet on being questioned as to what It was all about, Garfield In telling the story years after aald that he waa un able to recall more than a single sen tence "Mankind Is aa Indolent aa It dares to be." He was not certain that be recalled that correctly. Letter to J. F. Taylor, New Bern, N. C. Dear Sir. The way to reckon the cost of paint is to put both costs together: the cost of the paint and the cost of put ting it on. It would save this country hundreds of millions of dollars a year; it would save you alone (If you happen to be a victim) several dollars a year. See how It works. It costs as much to put-on one paint as another, don't it? Tea, if you use the ssme number of gallons. Well, don't I? No, you'll use twice as many gallons of adulterated paint aa of Devoe; and you've got to pay twice as much for pat ting it on. Mr N Avery, Delhi, N. Y., has two houses alike and in same condition. Painted one house with Devoe: 8 gallons Painted the other house with a paint that was half adulteration: It gallons. Same painter, Geo. Gilbert did both Jobs One cost $87; the other $51.

There la aosie agitatloa la the Stats papers relative to the adoption of a State flower. Nearly every State has a t isr symbol, aa well as the Nation, U a la I think, the arbalai. lf aoarw (he Idi-e is mere sentiment but (Hi-re are store sentiments raojptnt In this blooming country thai are matt harmfjl than tee selection of a National t Slate II we.

Some one has suggest ed that the rum blossom ought to be coa sldered, but perish the thought I Belter to have no flower at all than to Lave that. There la a little doggerel verse on this subject which has more troth la It thaa poetry. Each Nation mentioned has Its flower. The verse runs thus: France has her Illy, England has her rose, And every body knows Where the shamrock growi; Scotland has tbe thlat'e Flowering on tbe hill; But the American 0 mer Is the one dollar htl'. V A gentleman was speaking to m not long ago about native song talent. He said he wondered If the people of this city knew that there waa exceptionally good voice among our school children and If trained aright they might develop Into wonderful singing qualities. New Bern may be able to produce a second Jenny Llnd or Adeline Pattl. Particularly among the colored child ren is this uus. The gentleman said he was walking up town a few ttaya ago when he was attracted by two negro girls singing together. . He aald their VoLes were remarkable In a musical ay especially the alto voice and thought It a pity there was no wiy to develop and train them. The same thing probably exist among some of our white school children. It seems at If It would be a good plan to Introduce special musical training In our schoo'r. la a compaay of from 900 to 50) chll Iren there is bound to be three or more who will have apodal musical talent; the excellence ' of their voices will surely be shown no mstter what may be the natural disposition of the child. For the sake of afcU small per centage more attention should be paid to music In the schools. - One of the queerest tights that .nan been seen In this city lately Is the city convicts In the new clothing provided by the city authorities. The clot ulna; Itself Is good and proper, but occasion ally a convict Is not built to fit thi clothes. It's the man's fault. He ought not to have done things to ham to put them on. One man was put to work In a suit of the "peculiar" togs, and he looked like a pencil in a balloon, the suit was evident ly Intended for a man weighing from 180 to 100 or 825 lbs, while the occuiant could not have tipped the beam at more than 140 pounds. Tbe clothing was tied on him as the best means of keeping It on him, One man who watched him said he was the best specimen of an ani mated saw iunea mast be bad ever eon.
