The previous year it was only $178,892,818 The increase during the year is over $32, 000,000, wbieh is by far the greatest ever recorded iu any one year. This shows the great prosperity of the State and the marked advance in the value of farm lands. It it a very practical proof of the prosperity of North Caro lint.

Attendance upon this is compul sory and every Superintendent is expect ed to be present. Last year 83 attended. In a circular letter to the County Super intendents, Superintendent Joyner says the outlook for education la the State it hopeful and that this ought to be the most successful year's work for eiuca tion in' the history of the State. The success, however, depends very greatly upon the wisdom, enthusiasm and do votlon of the County Superintendents. A graded course of study for the pnblic schools has been prepared and this is to be strictly enforced, as it will greatly promote public school work. The Superintendents will discuss it, as also the business details of the pnblic school work. Many things of importance will be submitted to them at the meeting. Qen Robert F.

The Audubon Society Will See That Tbe State's Game It Well Pro tected. Until within a few years the laws in this State protecting the game birds and animals have not been properly enforc ed, and consequently, the effect has been as bad as the non existence of any law. Since the organization of the Au dubon Society, with efficient tranches In every County and the enactment and enforcement of wise laws the protection of all game has been materially advanc ed. Mr J R Upchurch State Game Wsr den was in the city yesterday to prose cute one, John Sanders Jr, for killing two quail on October 18th, which was ont of season for that game in this coun ty, it not being lawful to kill quail In Craven county until Novembar 1st Sanders was tried before Justice bR Street, found guilty and required to pay dne sad costs amounting to $11.60; the fine was five dollars.

The land used to be a rich prairie, but has been planted every year In corn for at least 60 years, Bnd without any at tempt at enrichment of the soil. One man there had 85 acres In peas this sea son. Seed peas have been sent there from North Carolina. Sheriff Page says that be has never seen the corn crop In this county so good as the present one.

D , CONSECRATED BISHOP. A Most Impressive Service Held at St. James Church, Wilmington, N C. In the presence of six bishops, more than a score of priests and a vast con gregation that tared beantlful St James Church to Its full seating capacity, Rev Robert Strange, D.D., was Tuesday con secrated Bishop Coadjutor of East Caro lina. It was one of the moat Interesting and impressive church services ever con ducted In Wilmington and the Immense sudlence which was present represented all denominations To all alike, It was a grandly sublime service and every moment of the lime was absorbed by those in attendance. There was perhaps never assembled in Wilmington a more distinguished body of churchmen. Aside frow the Bishops there were present some of the leading clergymen and prominent citi zens of this and other States. Every thing combined to make each feature of the occasion perfect and all who pre sented themselves at the church consider themselves fortunate In the opportunity thus offered. The following Bishops were present:- Rt. Rev Ellison Capers, Bishop of South Carolina, who presided; Rt. Rev Robert Atkinson Qibson, Bishop of Virginia; Rt. Rev Alfred Msglll Randolph, Bishop of Southern Virginia; Rt. Rev Joseph Blount Cheshire, Bishop of North Caro lina; Rt. Rev Theodore D. Bratton, Bisbop of Mississippi; Rt. Rev Junius Moore Homer, Bishop of Ashevllle. A large number of the clergymen of the East Carolina Diocese were in atten dance. It was genuinely regretted that the beloved Bishop Watson of East Carolina conld not be present at tbe services. Bis feeble health was not thought to be sufficient to warrant his taking the exer tion which would have been necessary had he taken part in the consecra tion. The sermon wss preached by Bishop Randolph. He chose for his teat, I Corinthians. 12th chapter and 3rd verse: "Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God callejh Jesus accursed: and that no man oan say Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost." I' was a masterful ef fort by a master mind. Bishop Ran dolph presented his thoughts In beautiful and forcible language and deeply Im pressed his hearer.'. In conclusion Bishop Randolph paid a beautiful tribute to the venerable Bishop Watson and made reference to his life in words that touched every person In the congregation He also spoke of and to i he bis hop-elect, Dr Strange. He pointed out the duty which awaited him. He expressed thanks to the diocese for calling one on whom the aged Bishop might lean tor support in his feebleness and he also spoke his gratitude at the acceptance of the Imports?, t thee by Dr attentat. Dr Strange's con i James' was most tp: the church of his ci years of earnest !abo i ; that, the church of generations of tort. A beautiful reception was given night at the Wilmington Light Infan armory In honor of Bishop Siren Hund eds of frtende renewed tl in Sain .
