Eastern North Carolina has often
been called the "garden spot" of the
State, and right well does this section
deserve the title, but for being a lar.d
of "milk and honey" it easily tukis
first rank. Countless herds roam its
broad and verdant savannas yielding to
the population a generous lactic tribute
while wild bees are hying up rich treas
ures in the trees of the swamps for the
use and enjoymeiit of mankind. These
bee trees are often found containing
fifty or more pounds of fine honey, but
a report from Pamlico county tells of
the richest find yet. It was on the
land of Mr. G. T. Cahoon, near lower
Broad Creek, a hollow gum in which
was packed honey to the depth of 11
feet, which must have been several
hundred pounds.
A meeting will beheld in the Presby
terian lecture room at live o'clock this

life. It is the largos' andstrongest re
ligious society in the world. All young
people in the city are cordially invited
to attend and join The society is not
denominational.
The racket at Stanly hall yesterday
afternoon was not due to a hair pulling
match because somebody didn't like the
awards in the baby show but it created
a lot of excitement. Some of the men
working at the bazaar were trying
to get a big gun down the stairs but
they did not have an oppor
tunity to get a leverage and the b g
gun got away from them and went
thundering down the stairs making a
noise as if the building had fallen down
Large numbers of people went to the
scene expecting some terrible catastro
phe. Fortunately nothing was dam
aged. Considerable ex.itement was created
yesterday morning, in the rinding of
the supposed dead body of a white man
in the cemetery. A large crowd gath
ered, and some of the bolder took hold
of the expected corpse when the cause
was discovered, , and the excitement
turned into laughter, and ridicule. The
"corpse" was able to get out of the
cemetery, later in the day.

DARING DAYLIGHT ROBBERY
Negro Brttki Into House In Dover and
Steals a Trunk In Which a Large
Amount ot Money Was
Concealed.
One of the most daring daylight burg
laries that has occurred in this section
for some time occurred Friday even
ing at Dover. The robber went to the
house of Mr. 0. L. Rhein at 3 o'edock,
raised a window and stole a trunk con
tents and all. He carried the trunk to
the woods or a secluded place and
emptied the contents which were mostly
women's cU thing and got a purse con
taining $105.
This having been areetnjiU-hod with,
out detection he h reported to have
gone to the storeof the Goldsboro Lum
ber Co., and bought a whoL' outfit,
clothes .shoes and hat.
Although near the hous" Mrs. Rhem
did not discover the robbery until an
hour or two later and promptly no
tifying the authorities at Dovw 1'oun I
a tangible clue tracing the thief to New
Bern. Mr. Rhem and a friend arrived
in New Bern and notifu-.lt he police and
police officers were detailed u a house
up town where the man was said to be
staying. They surrounded the house
but in spite of their watchfulness the
man escaped, quite likely in very scant
apparel as when they searched the
house they found his new clothing, the
purse contahin; $.. a new re

The Wliale-Kliling Orca I
The whale, which v. .is sixty or more i
feet in length, w:: attacked by these
hounds of the sea, the orca or killer;
they had seized it by its huge lips and
were clinging with all the ferocity of ;
a pack of bulldogs. In vain did the giant j
swing its deadly tail. The nimble foes !
leaped oyer it, avoiding it with ease, j
directing their attacks at its most vul- 1
nerable points the throat, lips, and I
tongue.
Impelled by the fascination cf this du
i i u i i
el of sea monsters the observers drew
nearer ami waiciieo wnui was in an
probability one of the most remarka
ble sea fights ever witnessed by man at
so close a range. They were so near
that the blood of the whale changed
the water about them from turquoise
blue to encardine; and the waves crea
ted by the leaping and rushing of the
ponderous body made their boat rise
and fall, as though on a heavy sea. The
orcas tore the wide lid-like Hps of the
whale, biting great pieces from the
tongue, and crazed with the lust for
blood, rent the huge creature until it
seemed completely cowed, lying on the
surface, making ineffective swings
from right to left, rising, then sounding
in a furv of indec'sion and fright.-'

Education.
Education is entirely an artificial con
dition. Each parent sends his children
i to school so that they may b a the bet
j fr8Lpnrepaml for thcy struypgle of ,ife.
Perhaps he is in. error when he thinks
that school can give this preparation,
very often he is, but one thing is cer
tain: nothing can De aone successiuuy
unless the doer is interested in what he
is doing, and this will never be the case
with school children it seeing is a bur
den. All modern education is based on
the use of the eves. If the eves are
not suitable the child will not be inter
ested in what he is doing, hence the
necessity of having the eyes suitable
for the purpose by tne proper specta
cles, if he is to -get out of education

I HAPPILY AVERTED CATASTROPHE
Residence ol T. A. Green. Esq. Badly
Dim.
aged by Fire. Crossed ElecHc Wires
What might have been a horrible ca
tistrophe, with loss of life, was provi
dentially averted, because a closet door
was closed and a fire was kept from
breaking out and destroying property
or inmates.
It was about 4 a. m. Sunday morn
ing when the fire department received
the call, the fire beine located in the
handsome brick residence of T. A
Green Esq.. corner Pollock and Han
cock streets. With due care the fire
men entered the house, located the
place of fire, and with no great difficul
ty saved the building from destruction.
The first intimation of the fire was
when Mil A. T. Dill, son-in-law of Mr.
Green, was aroused by the smell of
smoke. He quickly rushed to the sleep
ing rooms of the other members of the
family and gave the alarm, arousing
every one in the house. Smoke was fill
ing the house by this time, and escape
could only be made by the rear stair
wav. the fire being under the front
stair case, cutting off all chance from
that direction.
An examinotion of the cause of the
fire was found to be due to electric
wires, these setting fire to clothes in
clo?et under the front stairway, but be-
ins closed, there was only a smoulder,
but the heat created melted lead pipes,
and reaching the steam heating pipes
made every steam heating radiater too
hot to touch. While the actual fire
damage is not great, the smoke did
damage hard to estimate, it permeated
every section, and it could be seen and
smelt on everything in the house. There
was $2,000 insurance on the house and
. $1,2iH) on the furniture.
The house is in such bad condition
that it cannot be occupied until a com.
plete overhauling throughout is made.
