Tokio, May 31 Captain Roshinoft, commander of the Russian armored cruiser Admiral NakhlmofT, and other survivors have been brought to Mojij. The Admiral Nakhimoff was sunk near Tsu Island Saturday, seemingly by a mine or a submarine vessel . Captain . Koahinolf says that his vessel was en tenng the straits with the fleet. Sud denly there was a tremendous explosion and the Admiral Nakhimoff speedily sank carrying a majority-of her crew to death. Captain Roshinoff reached a damaged steam launch and was picked up on bunday. The .other survivors used life belts and were rescued by fish ermen. It is impossible to determine the particular manner of the destruc tion of the individual Russian ships. It is reported that submarine vessels es pecially laid wore used, but a satisfac tory confirmation of this is not obtain able, t . Wards MilT. . May 28. .We made another pleasant visit to Swansboro.

Rollins, with forty shares each. It is said that Mr. Rollins is at the head of this movement though Judge Adams came here and se cured the charter. The Mother charter is to the Tar Heel Publishing Company, also with $50,000 authorised capital, Spencer Blackburn having 238 shares. and R. A. Miller. H. L. Grant. R. R San 40 each. " Republicans here who have not stocks, in either, of these pa pers are rather inclined to ridicule the idea of having two Republican rowers and said there ought to be what there was in 1894, that is Fusion. Some of the Republicans say there is a big pros pect for a paper; that they have 80,000 Republican voters, but the scoffers want to knw how many .of these can read and write. Some say party pat ronage will be a powerful factor. There is to be a Republican weekly paper at Raleigh, and a charter has already been secured for this. The contest between the Rollins and Blackburn papers is really quite amusing to the people on the outside. - . i State Secretary T. B. Parker of the Farmers Alliance, in his report made, to New Orleans as to reduction of amount of fertilizers used on cotton in North Carolina this vear trave the amount as 24 per cent, this being based upons returns by a number of corres pondents in the various cotton growing counties, bpeakinir todav about the was not favorable for cotton and that the season had been a very trying one. Irustee Joseph G. Brown of the Methodist Orphanage here says the number of children has now reached fifty four. The big new buildines could have been filled by this time but it was thought best to wait until heating plant was put in which will cost $7000 or $8000 There are wealthy and public spirited Methodists in this state and it will be a very graceful for one or some of these to give such a heating plant for a me morial for as soon as it is 1 nut in the handsome building could be filled. A great many applications for the admis sion of children to the brphanage are on file. . . . Much regret is expressed here at the death of Rev. Dr. Needhara D. Cobb, who lived here some time. He edited the first Democratic newspaper after trie Civil War. . The file of this is in the State Library, a gift from him. and is of much interest. The number of visitors to the State Museum has very greatly increased since the installation of the exhibits from St. Louis, Curator Brimley is showing a very great amount, of taste in the arrangement permanently, in the various departments, notably of the animals and birds.

' THOMAS PATLOW WILLIAMS. ' MARY ELIZABETH WILLIS. GEORGE THOMAS WILLIS. Thirteen young men and women bade formal adieu to their school tasks yes terday as far as the New Bern Graded School was concerned. Their friends gathered at the New Masonic Theatre at 11 o'clock to witness the graduation and to bid them God speed on a career so auspiciously begun. The class assembled on the stas-e with Prof. Craven. Prof. Spence. Rev. W. Tyndoll, Rev. H. S. Brodshaw and Mr. T. A. Green. The members were adorned with badges composing the colors of the class, gold and pur ple. :' .'." 7. ; The exercises began promptly at the appointed time, the school singing the song enticled "Ho for Carolma." Miss Ross Dail was the conductor and Miss Nina Baanight, pianist. .,'"..' After the invocation by Rev. J. W. Tyndall, Miss Sadie Whitehurst read an essay on the First Railroad of North Carolina. It contained much of histori cal interest and showed the importance of New Bern in the days before the railroads. She gave a graphic descrip tion of the celebration here in April, 1858 when the A. & N. C. Railwav was completed from Goldsboro to this citv. This State was a pioneer in the con struction of this mighty civilizer and has spared no pains nor money to invest herself with these iron courses of com merce. ' r 1 The oration, the Power of the Indivi dual was delivered by Bruce Edgerton. His anrumant was to achieve ereatnesa by relying on one's own personality and illustrated his subiect bv allusions to great men who have made themselves famous by their strong personality. The school sane the sone. "Columbus the Gem of the Ocean," Miss Callie Williams read an essav on the Force of of Character, which was a very credit able paper showing the desirability of good character, the elements which composed it, the necessity of maintain ing it and how it makes men success ful '.';... ., "vV .v ....-'. Miss Mabel Bartling's essay was on the history of New Bern Academy. The essayist gave an accurate account of the old school the vicissitudes, the trials, the honors and the many inci dents in which the institution was con cerned citing the part taken in it by noted sons of North Carolina. The paper showed much research and study and was valuable because many facts were mentioned which perhaps were not known by the public before. Succeeding the singing of the song "America" Miss Kathryn King de livered the valedictory. Preceding it Prof. Craven announced the conditions by which Miss King had the honor cos ferred upon her. He stated that her per centage from the beginning of the spring term was 99 1-10 and for the year was 98 1-20. Her speech was one of tender grati tude to the superintendent for his watchful care and wise advice he was ever ready and willing to give; to the other teachers for their guidance and assistance in the arduous duties of school life. She spoke without em barrassment and a confidence that many a more experienced speaker might have coveted. . Miss King was the recipient of many well earned honors which were announced from the stage. She had been an indefatigable student and in the face of many trials had through pluck and perseverance gained the highest position her school could of fer. . . At the close of the exercises the an nouncement of the awarding of medals and scholarships was made. The pre sentation of the medals, was made- by Mr, S. M. Brinson. Those who received were Myra Berry and Eva Armstrong 8th grade, medals donated by Messrs T. A. Green and C. W. Munger. The 9th grade medal given by Mrs. J. A. Meadows was won by Fred Jonea for excellence in literature, 10th grade med al was also given by Mrs. J, A. Mead ows and won by Miss Kathryn Kinir for superior standing in mathematics. In the presentation speech Mr. Brinson said that heTad prepared a speech for different conditions, that it was usual for the boy to win the mathematics prize and it was difficult for him to be lieve it was different.

The class president, Bruce Edgerton welcomed the spectators by giving a short sketch of the class and its achieve mentp. , Miss Fannie Green delivered the class prophecy in which she fore told the future of each member of the class with the true spirit of a seer. After music Miss Mary Louise Carra- way reoa tne class poem, it was a very clever production and much credit is due the young lady for the .concep tion of such well constructed verses. The class history was the sketch of the life of the class from October 1900 to June 1905 in a clear and entertaining manner.. The writer said that the his tory did not tell of great political or national strife but there had been battles fought in the class room more important to the students concerned than those of a national character. The historian was thorough in her review and not only did the au dience enjoy it but the class also. Miss King's essay on Eternal Monu ments was one of the most beautiful and praiseworthy papers offered. It contained much to incite to higher, no bler efforts and bespoke for the writer bnllihnt future. The class then sang the song written and composed for them, after which they were dismissed by Rev.
