At this writing the release of Miss Stone and the other imprisoned mis sionary with her, Madame Teilka, has not been effected. They are said to be comfortable but kept in a cave. The wild country, the heavv rains and snows which have already set in, are great hindrances to those who are en gaged for their release. Nothing has appeared in print which interested the American people more than Admiral Schley's own story of his engagement with the Spanish fleet. The American people have already made up their verdict in the case : and it matters not what may be the verdict of the court of inquiry, the people will still say that Schley is a hero. Some one writes that rapid transit at the rate of one hundred miles an hour is clearly in sight. When that time comes a man can live in one city and ao dussdsss in anotner. Already it is as easy lor one to live ten miles from his place of business In a large city as is for a farmer to cultivate his farm a rune or two from his barn-yard. The street railways, bicycle travel, and the like, have put many a man miles from his place of business, which would have been thought out of the question half a century ago.

The State Fair was a great success estimated by the number of people in attendance as reported by the Raleigh papers. Thirty thousand was the esti mate for Thursday, the day of largest attendance, and the News and Observer thinks taat fully fifty thousand dollars were spent In Raleigh by those who were in the city during the week. But one feature of the Fair has been rigidly condemned aheady. Robert N. Page in a communication to the News and Observer o! Sunday, 27th, severely criticised the indecency of 'the Midway and says that a man was compelled to see and hear things out in the open that were shocking indeed. The News and Observer commented editorially on Mr. Page's communication and closed by saying : "The time has come to call a halt. Year by year the indecent and vulgar shows have encroached upon the space until they reached the climax in num bers and in nastiness this year. The State Fair must next year exclude the whole of putrid adventurers and ad venturesses who are too low to have the sense of shame, and put in their place at tractions and amusements that any man will feel like bringing bis children to see. It can be done and next year the Fair authorities MUST we use the word advisedly se8 that it is done and advertised In order for the State Fair to retain its strong hold upon the best people in Worth Caroli na." Southern industry and progress of various kinds engage the attention of paople all through this country, and the wonderful strides the South has made in these matters of late are freely commented upon. The Saturday Eve ning Post thinks that the South has made more rapid strides in railroad building than in anything else, per- r haps. One paragrapn in wnicn reier- enee is made to North Carolina, says : "But the greatest promise of South- ftrn nroneruv -in wuuu i very lapid increase of railway construc tion. On any American railway of a few years ago the mazes ol Macs: lines ended abruptly at tne jroiomau and the Ohio ; farther South tne lines lHAmA III were so lew as to seem luueoumo. later years, however, certain ouumw States have outdone some energetic addition to railway systems and in constructing new lines.

Stevens in Raleigh Post. iwo and a half miles from New Berne, on the opposite banks of Trent river, are the tombs of three Governors of the State of North Carolina Gov ernor Abner Nash, Governor Richard Dobbs bpaight and Governor Ricbard Dobbs Spaight, his son. The last rest ing place of the three Governors is little visited and almost unnnown, and their tombs are perishing in. decay. Yet they were men famous In their day and generation. The surrounding fields are among the most historic in the country; they contain lasting marks ol great epochs in the nation's history. The mound builders left their monuments upon it, the dams of the early Swips colonists are in the cre9ks and three grim earthworks of the civil war recall our fratricidal struggle. Let one drive across Trent river bridge, past the shanties and saw mills, I months later Count De Graff enried and of James City, and there lias hntnra I hla Swiss nrrivnd there was much din- him several thousand acres of cleared satisfaction, and a removal to the site land, extending from Trent river to of Catooka or New Bern resulted. We the woods on the south. The road is know not what Lawson's eyil deeds very sandy and only a small portion of amounted to, but if they were great, the land is cultivated, and that in a grievously did he pay tor them at the was built in the Elizabeth style, .with a hip roof. The front and rear, were of wood, the ends of briea: And ifar nhim. neys were huge and high. t1s aaidl mai me cries went to mase: immneys for the negro refugees following in the wake of Sherman's army, who settled what is now James City. The Spaight mansion; was- a fine house of brick. It had gable ends and was burned during the war.- The sites of the homestead are marked by slight ly rising grounds, perhaps a few brick couia sua oe lound. - There are many people who remember these colonial houses, still living in New Bern, and there are some who visited there. These same old fields saw life before the si te of New Bern was cleared. Gen. Lawson wrongfully located the Palatines upon the place, according to Count De Graffennei's complaint, who says; "What furthermore was very dishon est in that surveyor, is that we had paid a heayy price for that piece of tongue ot land, not knowing that he had no title or that the place was still inhabited by the Indians." Lawson had lived there as early as 1701 and settled the Palatines npon the land in the spring of 1710 and when a few Arkansas abounding in never could have half hearted way by negro tenants on shares. Wire grass thrives in the scanty soil, but there are wild flowers also. It might seem desolation to some, but to him who has eyes to see there is a rare beauty in the wide land scape, tne bright blue sky and the wide Trent nu.fi. in its reedy banks. In the old days all these barren fields were cultivated plantations, tilled bv the labor of the slave. Between the sandy road and the banks of Brice's creek, which flows parallel with, before entering Into, Trent river, is seen a dense clump of trees. A way has to be pushed through the dense growth of fringing brushes, and there, under seyeral aged trees, a brick tomb is found. It is twenty feet In length and fifteen in breadth and about ten feet high, with a curv ing roof. The whole was once covered with plaster, now dropping away. In the front is a clean, white marble slab, two by four feet, inscribed "Gen. Rich ard Dobbs Spaight." In this brick sepulchre were placed the bodies of the two Governors, father and son. The elder Spaight was the first native Gov ernor of the State and the youncrer Spaight was the last Governor to be elected by the Legislature and not by the people. The elder served in 1792, the younger in 1835. There is a great mystery hanging over this curved sepulchre of brick. with its staring white plate of marble and its moss streaked sides ; for no man certainly knows its contents. When all these fields and woods were filled with Northern soldiers, and the moat surrounded earthworks near by com manded with its guns the river Trent, a strange thing is said to have occurred. The tomb of the Spaights had been opened and the leaden coffins seen. Death came to two high officers of the Federal force, and the bones ot the long time -dead were cast into the near by waters of Brice's creek and the coffins preserved the remains of the strangers to be carried North by the Federal fleet. This is the story as told and believed today, but the walls of the tomb are now solid and seeming ly untouched and tell no tale. About a mile to the westward, some distance from the trayelled road but close to the river bank, Is another clump of trees. It is hard to force a wav in on account of the vines and brambles, and there is not much to see, for the last resting place of Gov ernor Nash is indicated only by a brick wail, nearly even with the ground, two sides of its former square remaining. The tomb was destroyed during the war, how or why is unknown. There is nothme to indicate whether the re mains the surface of the ground. There is no monument to mark the grave of the second Governor of the State, a revolutionary Governor of the year 1780, who served his people with no small danger to himself. A huge mulberry tree overshadows the place, crepe myrtle, mimosa and china trees planted long ago still survive. An in scribed plate from the tomb is said to be in existence, but It cannot be traced. When these barren fields were well tilled plantations large brick houses tn tha river and remained hands of his former Indian friends, for in the great massacre his flesh was stuck with pine slivers, to which fire was applied. The Spaight dwelling was their country home, for they owned a town house. The latter still stands and is occupied by ex-Mayor A. R. Dennison When first built it overlooked the yard surrounding Governor Tryon's palace. From its windows fair faces of colonial dames looked upon Gen. George Wash ington when he received the people in the old palace yard. The palace, ex cept the wing now standing, had then been destroyed. The general walked tne length of the enclosure, greeting the long line of citizens standing there to meet him. in those days, -from the upper win dows of this town house of the Spaights there must have been an uninterrupt ed view across the mile wide Trent to the plantations to the southwest. Per haps the last view of the elder Spaight was turned to that home, for he died in the upper southeast room of the bouse overlooking the river, surviving his duel with John Stanley but twenty- four hours. The duelling ground was on a spot back of what is now the fair grounds and it was on Sunday, the otn. ot September, iuz, tnat ne was carried by his friends from the field of honor to die. Time will only add interest to the memories of those days. The history of the old town is full of the romance of great deeds and men, but no place is of more romantic interest than the banks of the river Trent. New Bern, N. C, Oct, 19. FOR OVER FIFTY YEARS.

LSABZmTB SOUETBHTS AND THERE. HEEE Wort That Woman is Doing. The Brook. sears American Woman. JSvery now and then some woman hits on a plan for earning a living which is so simple and so womanly one wonders it was not thought of sooner. The weaving of baskets seems a commonplace enough occupation as a means of support, yet Its discovery as such was made only the other day, and by Misses Mabel and Stella Campbell, two young women scarcely out of their teens. Miss Mabel giyes a pleasant account of their beginning and success. "The idea," she explained, "first came to my sister fire years ago when she was visiting Aiken, S. C. Of course every one who has been to Aiken remembers the little baskets made of pine-needles which are made and brought to the hotel for sale by the country women. Well, Stella visited one of these 'cracker' women and learn ed how the baskets were made. The following year I went out West the far West in the Indian country, as teacher In the family ot a promi nent ranchman. There were plenty of Indians about, and I saw many beauti ful baskests. At Christmas I sent Stella the prettiest that could be bought, and when she wrote she sug gested that I learn how the basaets were made. I did and became very much interested both In the curing of the grasses and in the numerous pat terns which I myself invented. Then I sent Stella a package of the grasset and a dozen baskets of my own manufacture. "it was tnen tne nrst money was made. My sister combined the Indian and Southern materials into a basket of her own designing. This she offered to a fashionable florist, who took it at once and paid a good price for it. Of course, Stella followed this up by work ing all her materials into baskets, which she readily sold. Naturally, when I came East with my employers last winter every available crack and crevice of my luggage was filled with the various glasses used by the Indians in their basket-weaving. Later in the season l accompanied tne family to Florida, where I acquired some new hints on basket weaving. On our way back we stopped at Ashvllle, N. C, and learned something more. see, it was quite natural for us to think of basket-weaving as a means of earn ing money. After considering the matter seriously we consulted severs florists, and received so many orders that we decided to turn our whole time and attention to the work. "1 think it is a held where women may earn a comfortable living. We have already receiyed orders for twice as many baskets as we could have ready for the autumn trade if we at tempted to do the work alone. Last season we employed two girls as assist ants. This season we will certainly be compelled to engage several more, am convinced tbat ready sale for such baskets will be found in any large city where flowers and lancy candles are sold. "Our 'plant' you must not think ot It as a factory, because the fact that all of our work is done by hand la one of its greatest merits is a pleasant ittle cottage in the country, just near enough to the Adirondacks for us to enjoy the scenery and not far enough away from railroads to make transpor tation difficult. "Like everything else, the work re quires to be learned ; but it is not diffi cult.
