POWERFUL PRESENTATION OF THE CONSTITUTIONAL AMEND MENT QUESTION. Flat Creek, N. C, July 2. The citi zens of Flat Creek were addressed last Saturday evening by Hon. Locke Craig. A large audience assembled at the school house where the meeting was held and for two hours and a half Mr. Craig held the undivided attention of all. Everyone went away saying It was the best speech they had heard In favor of the amendment and white su premacy In North Carolina. Undoubt edly Mr. Craig is the greatest politi cal speaker in the state. Mr. Craig, speaking of the last legis lature, said: "It will go into our his tory as an Industrious, able and con scientious body of men. It rewrote the? laws governing the state's institutions, the public schools, elections, railroads and other corporations." Mr. Craig, continuing said: "We are beginning the most eventful conflict of our his tory. It has been forced by the logi cal events and the determination of a conscientious and courageous people to purify and elevate our politics, to pre vent by constitutional enactment the humiliation of our race, and perpetu ate peace and good government in North Carolina. The amendment will be misrepresented. Every possible at tempt will be made to deceive the po ple. It will be fought with all the bit terness and malignity of the renegades who use the negro as a means of pub lic plunder." Mr. Craig showed how in 1876 the white men of North Carolina banded themselves together and, under the leadership of Senator Vance, wrested the state from the negroes and carpet baggers, and that a white man's gov ernment had placed the most honora ble men in control of all branches of the administration, bringing the treas ury out of bankruptcy and restoring the fair name of the state to its one time proud position. The history of those administrations is well known. That era Is referred to now as the brightest epoch In the history of North Carolina. Mr. Craig, speaking of the benefits to accrue from the adoption of the amendment, said: "It means that the necessity of the fierce and bitter race struggles of the past will cease; that ruin and degradation will no longer threaten our state and her institutions. Though unwritten it is the established law of this land that white men shall make and administer the laws." Mr. Craig went on to say that the amend ment would be adopted by the biggest majority that has been seen in North Carolina for many a day; that it will be adopted by the votes of the white men of all parties white men who are Republicans, white men who are Popu lists, as well as white men who are Democrats. It was a great speech and greatly appreciated by the Democracy Of old Flat Creek. E. G. ROBERTS. CANDIDATES FOR THE STATE SENATE APPOINTMENTS FOR SPEAKING. PUBLIC J. M.

Cock Fight IN THE Philippines ?i i' !' v ;? 5?f r ;? ; ?? 5;? Manila, P. I., May 24. Did you ever see a genuine cock flghtt I do not mean" two old barnyard roosters, but the gritty game cocks of any Spanish coun try or Mexico. I am going to tell you of how they do It in the Philippines, Porto Rico and Cuba, for they fight them after the same fashion In the three countries, except in the Philip pines. They use what is called gaffs, a slender knife about two Inches long and as sharp as a razor, which Is tied on the left leg of the cock. The old-,, fashioned way with their natural spurs takes from 15 minutes to an hour to finish the flghtf, but with the gaffs they seldom fight more than five minutes and often not more than half a minute. The day for cock fighting here is al ways Sunday and it lasts from about 10 a. m. to 5 p. m. The place where I saw cock fighting in the Philippines was at Cavlte, made famous by Dewey and his American sailors. I left the Paslg in front of the quartermaster's department on the public ferry p.t 9 a. m. .one Sunday and the ferry was crowded from bow to stern with Fill--plnos, Tagaloe, Chinese, Spaniards and Americans; in fact almost every . na tionality was represented there. There must have been on board also 200 fight ing cocks, from the old fellow who had figured in many battles to the young aalla who was going to his first battle and perhaps death. Each cock had a string about a yard long tied to his leg, and on the end of the string was a wooden peg which is used. to be driven in the ground to hold him while his master "hablas," talks fight to some other "hombre," man who has a fighter. On the way over, which is seven miles across the bay from Manila, those fowls made the air hideous with their crowing. After landing I proceeded at once to the arena or cock pit. On entering the enclosure I be held the largest variety of game cocks I have ever seen. Squatted on all sides, Indian fashion, were natives matching them for the final combat. The pit consisted of a nipa hut with rude benches of bamboo encircling, rising all around like an ampltheater. The Judge or referee was an old coon who had been in the service 40 years. He was such a judge of good fighters that he was not allowed to bet, but was made Judge and received compen sation for his services from the house. The old Judge clapped his hands and in strode a native with a game rooster MARRIED IN A HACK AND CAUGHT THE TRAIN INDIANA COUPLE HAD NO TIME TO LOSE. Fiom the Louisville Courier-Journal. An unusual marriage ceremony took place on Sunday in Jeffersonville. About 6:30 o'clock of that evening an open hack containing a handsomely dressed man and a striking looking young woman was driven up in front of Magistrate Warder's office on Spring street. The gentleman called the magistrate out and whispered to him that he desired a marriage to the young woman at his Bide. Magistrate Warder, in a few sec onds, was seated in the hack with tno couple and the party sped out Spring street and up Maple to the county clerk's residence. On the way people looked after the hack. They remarked upon the beauty of the woman. The license was obtained from the clerk, and then the prospective groom, as th hack started back, looked at his watch and observed that they wanted to catch a Pennsylvania train out of Louisville for Chicago at 8:30. "Marry us as we go down the street," sfaid the impatient young man. "Join hands," said the magistrate, and, as the hack moved rapidly down the street in the direction of the river, they were married. Arriving at the river"just in time for the 7:30 boat, the bridegroom dismissed the magistrate, handing him two bills. They were a pair of twenties. Forty dollars is the record in Jeffersonville. No amount of coaxing could induce the magistrate to tell the names of the couple. He said that the strictest se crecy had been enjoined upon him by them. Yesterday, however, the county clerk made his report of the marriage license Issued in the month of May. It was learned then that the people were William Robinson and Lillian Craig. Magistrate Warder thinks they are theatrical people. $10.00 Suit $11.25 buys a $15.00 Suit 12.50 13.50 13.00 15.00 t v , n. m n . Mr. Klngsmore Describes the ' Sunday Sport e v ; v , v f- . F) F) under his arm and with hat in hand. In a few moments entered another who took up his position on the . opposite side. In front of them began to gather the gamblers throwing their Mexican pesos on the ground, and from the out side of the ring pesos were pitched over the rail till I would have called it such a mixture that no accountant could have straightened it out. Again the old Judge claps his hands and the two natives simultaneously be gin taking the sheaths off of the gaffs of the two cocks who are to soon decide which must die. 1 felt a little nervous as the bright little knives Hashed and thought this is a miniature of the old Roman gladiators. Taking the head of one of the cocks in his hand the owner allowed the other to peck him for some seconds, bringing blood every time, then it was reversed, allowing the for mer cock go through a similar routine. This was to make them angry. Going from each other 10 feet they simulta neously place each cock on his feet and withdraw. Silently and slowly each cock approaches with feathers turned the opposite direction till within about two feet of each other. Then as care fully as the marksman sights his rifle each measures his distance .and awaits the proper moment to strike. They seem to be endowed with human cun ning and seem to know that if they do not strike hard at the right moment all will be over with'them. The audience remains breathless. Not a wfrrTT is spoken and nothing can be heard save the lashing of the breakers on the massive wall near by. . At last both rise and strike at the same time. One is pierced In the side while the other has a leg cut almost off. Neither gives up, but each awaits his time and strikes when that time comes. Both are bleeding and becoming weak er each minute. The one pierced In the side seems to become weaker, while seemingly with the last effort the other strikes, and so' deep Into the enemy's side plunges the gaff that he Is unable to withdraw it and the fight is decided over. Each owner steps in to take his precious pet. The victor is lifted up and the terrible little knife removed from his opponenet, who Is found to be dead. So the fight goes on. By the time two are disposed of two are on deck ready, and the stakes cleared up. I saw during the whole time only one coward, and he did not run before getting a thrust in the side. Men, women and children all gather to see them and all bet on their holce. The chickens which are killed are car ried off, Immediately dressed and cooked. Many hundred dollars are lost and won each Sunday. The highest I saw on one fight was $150. I also had the pleasure of seeing a fighting cock there valued at $300. His name was Dewey. S. W.
