A. Feather- ston, is so much like this sample that on two acres the yield will be 100 bush els to the acre. A number of the citizens of Ramoth are engaged in the commendable rival ry of seeing who can raise the greatest amount of wheat to the acre. Recently Tom Wagoner threshed for T. M. Kim- berly 204 bushels of wheat, which was raised on six acres. This is 34 bushels to the acre and beats Captain Weaver's record, which was 27 bushels. A special from Terre Haute, lnd., says that Robert Carter of Ashevllle, of the Bloomington baseball team, has brought suit against the Terre Haute Street Railway company for flO.000 for personal injuries received a few weeks ago while riding to the ball park. The car was struck by a switch engine and Mr. Carter's feet were crushed. The accident was described in The Citizen shortly after it occurred. The Citizen's Raleigh correspondence indicates that the Asheville Light In fantry has volunteered for service in China. Captain Nichols is absent from the city today, but" some of the other officers said that the matter had never been formally voted on by the com pany, although there had been some discussion of the matter. They said that if Captain Nichols had written to the goVei nor lie hud probably offered the services of only such members of the company as cared to go.

LI HUNG CHANG CAUSED THE TRQUBLE FATAL ACCIDKNT SHOUT TANl'E WK.ST Oi- t ill'. 1'IS- "I see dot Li Hung Chang haf cap tured Pekln today, yet," said Ikey Klopstein to Jakey Einstein as he paused in front of the latter's shop on Jiorth Main yesterday afternoon. Now to an outsider there would ap pear to be nothing in this remark cal culated to offend Mr. Einstein. 15ut cTTTtmstances alter cases. For the two fonduct rlvajjjamporiums on opposite sMes of NorTHIain,and their relations are therefore more or le?s strained. And also Mr. Einstein's present stand was once occupied by a Chinese laun dry. He is sensitive on the point, and to be called a Chinaman is to him the deadly insult. Therefore he it-sented the apparently Innocent remark of Mr. Klopstein and swore mighty oaths at him. "If you vas calling me a Chinaman," cried he, "I vill teach you your own peesniz to monkey mlt." "If you vill come out here." said Mr. Klopstein, "somebody vill pe hurt, al retty." "I vill vent out. and pmash your svindling face." lowled the Insulted Jacob, and the two proceeded to mix and scrap, awfully.
