But the tin s; t specimen seen on New Bern's streets for a long time bobbed up In the neighborhood of the depot yester day morning, a'mit lime for tha blioo Fly train. Thst he was an experienced . and hardened tourist could be seen easily and Went without saying, for was'nt lie well equipped for traveling."""" Huspuni'.ed from his shoulders was his bed ling rolled up in a fragment of cot ton bagging and from h's nuck by a cord defended hit drinking vessel, a much battered tin cup. In one hand he grasp ed a ttout staff, and in the other, he carried what was once Intended for a coffee pot, but to what uss It could have been put in its later condition 1) a hard thing to imagiae. Rust seemed to have long ago claimed the vessel for Its own, and Its bottom was as badly punctured as a Russlsn gun boat after an encounter with a Japanese war craft. If It had not teen for the umpromlsing appearance of the traveling gentleman his conduct along the line of the A A N C, would have lid one t bslleve that he contemplated leasing or purchasing that road, and Its pro pet ty. And who knows bnt what he does? It Is known that millionaires have evoluted from appar ant tramps to wit, long headed schemes would find to their best Interests to In ect their Intended investment wh'le ia the disguise of a tramp. But to the tale while inspecting engine No 19, his "nibs" was spied cut by that vigilant and hawk-eyed ( Ulcer, Montague who started in pursuit, and the tramp Inaugurated a movement. Thr chase was down Hancock street, but tha officer proved i he beit spiinter after a run of several squares. The captuie was made near Pollock ttreet and while tha odor of tbe "varmiul" was something horrible Not unlike that of tha native pole cat, only stronger, it was driven to the city pound. There It gave various accounts of Hi origin 'and habits, but seemed to have no acquaintance with labor of any descrip tion, in fact when offered a place on the streets for 20 da) s by tin Mayor It ds murred, and signified an Intent'on of shaking the dnst of an Inhospitable city from its feet, Immediately, which it did. Educatio nal Value of Good Schoo Houses. State Superintendent Joyner, of North Carolina, writing to Mr F C Ab bott, of Charlotte, In regard to his plan for building letter school-houces in North Carolina, sajs: I agree with jou that the public schools must be better housed before tbe schools and the teachers will be bet ter. The work of education, real educa tlon, cinnot be successfully carried on in a hovel, There Is Infinitely more in edncation than that which Is lo be gain ed from the mere cunning of books and saying of lessons. 1 am sometimes half persuaded to believe that that Insensible education which conies from environ ment strikes deeper and lasts longer than all your sensible and formal educa tion. If this be In any mevu:o true. bow essential li It that the school should have a home In which the children could be am rounded dally by such environment as would be conducive to the develop- through Insensible, educa Ion, of the fine and higher Bide of their divine natuie. I hope and pray for the comlrg of tie di y In this old State when ever; school house shall be clean and comfoi table and airy and fnll of light, and attractive, full of comfortable desks and pictures, and those things that eater int the making of an attractive home for children, when the school grounds, Instead of being bleak and bare and deEolate, shall lie blooming gardons of flowers and shrubs, and trees, and vines. This '19 my Ideal." - The Ideal Is grod. We mgit work In ihU spirit and to this end. Headed This Way. Kalelgb, July 30.

An example of the condition was given yesterday when a small fire broke out on Hancock street. One reel was hauled there by some boys anil that was about all the available mesne we had to fight fire with.

Rid your mind of selfish motives, Let your thoughts be clean and high, You can make a little Eden I Of the sphere you occupy. Do you wish the world were wiser f Well, suppose you make a start By accumulating wisdom In the scrap-book of your heart; Do not waste one page on fol'.y: Live to learn, and lesrn to lire; If you want to give men knowledge, You must get It, ere you give. Do you wish the world were happy ? Then remember day by day Just to scatter seeds of kindness As you pass along the way, For the pleasures of the many May be ofttlmes traced ti one, As the hand that planti an acorn Shelters armies from the inn. Selected. Not Much Doing. Chicago, July 30 The situation at the sards is comparatively quiet this morning. Four hundred non-union men, three hundied of whom are colored were brought In on the early morning tr.ln and distributed among the various packing houses without disturbance. Tbe crowd attacked a delivery wagon on Forty seventh street this morning, and the police coming to Urn rescue made 19 arrests. Mo one was hurt. The receipts this morning were one thousand cattle, i-"1'"" thousand hogs and three thou kuu aueep, about the usual Saturday's figures. There is not enough stock on hand for the plants to operate Sunday. This may prove a serious trouble, as some of the Idle men will wander with out the confines of the yards aid en counter tha atria-era' plokets. Railways and Common Carriers in Craven.

An Honorable Defeat The Journal takes pleasure In repro ducing the Wilmington Star's account of the base ball game In that city last Frl day: The Mew Bern bin-bail club, the proclaimed champions of Hast Caro lina, went down in defeat Wore the strong Cape Fear Academy team of Wilmington In the presence of 250 spectators at Hilton Park yesterday afternoon. The score was three to one and the game was a fine exhibi tion of the national sport. The Mew Bernlans arrived on the easyrsion yes terday morning and were reinforced on tbe grounds In the afternoon by a big contingent of most enthusiastic "rooters" on the bleachers. The Wilmington noise-makers were also there and be tween the two tactions, interest was kept at fever heat. The visitors devel oped a wonder on th slab In the person of John 1'allerson, who may well be called "the boy wonder." He is only 17 years of ago and let the locals down with a mlnumum of hits, pulling him self very cleverly out of a hole at several critical points. "Red" Wilson, on the slab for the locals, also did fine work, keeping his hits well scattered and his head with him at all time, Both pitchers received good support, though the four runs wete made on errors. The New Bernlans started the chalking with their lonesome run in the second Inning and It was a chance run, too. Two men were down, but Woolen made the only double hit cf the game aud got third on an error. An Infield hit sent him over the pan. Wilmington got her runs In a pile in the sixth inning. Calder received a pass and stole second. Moore lilt In the diamond and went safe on error of Hi st bare, giving Calder third. Then followed a succession of errors, a wild throw, a passed ball and two runs for the locals were netted, leaving a man on third base. He was scored on an oppor tune Infittld hit by VV ilson with two men out. But the tabulated score tells tho story and here It is: THE TABULATED SCORE. n BERN. A.B R, H. P.O. A, E.

FROM THR WILMINUTON DISPATCH: In a snsppy game of ball at Hilton Fark yesterday afternoon New Bern went down In defeat before tbe Cape Fear Academy team of Wilmington. The score was three to one and each team did did lis score in one inning Gross errors were responsible for all the runs made. Had the game been errorless no runs wouid have been made. Mew Bern scored in the second bnt Wilming ton didn't see the home plate until the aixth. It wis a battle between pitchers, with the honors a shade In favor of Patterson of Mew Bern, He pitched a very strong game and 'allowed only two hits. His speed and control were vwy good. When It is taken Into consideration that Patterson Is only 17 years old his work on the slab was really wonderful, "Red' Wilson, who did the honon for the locals, pitched, his usual gllt-dge ball He was hit ssfely only five times and they were kept well scattered.
