J. H. Bradley, jast bo yoad the Trenton Mill. And it was made for no other.reason than that Mr. Bradley has' been a faithful and acceptable pastor, and his people desired to show mm and his excellent wife some tokens of appreciation of their Mad and faithful ministrations. Members of the church and Sun day school of West End rolled in with their gifts and good whdws nntil the hearts of their pastor sad his wife were as full •s their pantry and tables and wood-yard, for the gifts ranged sll the way from a load of wood and a sack of floor to the smaller gifts of all aorta of good things in pound packages. It was a happy evening to all, in which UK gift blessed him that gave as well as him that received. The bouse could not bold the people present. Mrs. R. W. White and Mrs. Julius Deal went in advance of the pounders in order to keep the family up until the others arrived. And so well did they conceal the real pnrpoae of their visit that when \was all over, Mr. Bradley was obliged to declare that a woman could keep a secret.

The Salisbury Sun, of the 12th, had the following article, which is not shone of local but of gen eral interest: "At a meeting of the represen tatives of the lata Mrs. Alary Cowan HalL in Salisbury, Mon day, a surprise hardly short of a sensation was sprang on those present by Dr. McAden, of Char lotte. When an amicable under standing had been reached to the disposition of the estate agree able to the provisions of the will Dr. McAden arose and stated that he desired to make a state ment. His statement waa to the e?*ct. that many yean since Mn. Hall had entrusted to him 1 to invest in whatever he . She did not even re quire a receipt from him for the amount and left the investment entirely in his hsuds. He con verted the money into gilt-edge securities which arc to-day worth almost twice the original purchase price. Mrs. Hall had mode no specific mention of this matter in her will and none of the family knew anything of it. . "The stock with accrued interest goes to Mn. J. D. Me Neely, of this city. Tattle Beach. WUalaatoa SUi. An Indiana man who was run ning a stock farm is now think ing of converting it into a turtle ranch. There was a dried-up swamp on his place, which had been under cultivation for some time. He needed more water for his stock and concluded to make a pond. He used a scraper plow for this. The first scrape turned up some turtles, and he kept on turning them up until he had reached a depth of about six feet. After rain had filled his pond he counted 180 tnrtles basking in the sunshine on the banks of that pond, some of them two feet across the back. The supposition is that others are still working their way up through the earth at the bottom of the pond, and that he has made an encouraging start for a first-class turtle ranch. Thu Servant Problem. }J«w York Pma. The fourth duty of men is to hire and keep hired a servant. The ablcat minds of womankind have failed to "solute” the problem, as a speaker in a femi nine convention said in Denver, and it is to be left to mere men to decide what shall be done. The proposition is this: Onr husbands—bankers, merchants, lawyers, doctors, peddlers, tink ers, and thieves—must take a day off and tell us how to keep Mary and keep her satisfied.” If anything were needed to con vince the sex that they are not fitted' for _ mnndane affairs it is their inability to keep a servant. I do not believe in giving women the suffrage until they under stand the fourth duty of man. How can they hope to rule the country when they cannot even conduct a household? ■a Puzzled (ha Judges. Ckinco Otroalde. lu a Montreal Police Court recently the presidiog magistrate asked a prisoner what he was doing at the time of his arrest. "1 was waiting," said the ac cused. "Waiting for whom?” asked the magistrate. "Just waiting," came the were you waiting for?" "For my money.” "Who from?" "Tba mao I was waiting for." "What did he owe it you for?" -"For waiting." "I do not understand," said (ke perplexed magistrate. "Bx plaiu yourself.” "I thought,” said the prisoner, "you knew I was a waiter in a restaurant." _ The tadyftrii Us Sana. * A very pious lady in this vicin ity ssys tut it was her prayers that causad the defeat of Black burn.

Conflicting railroad in terests are struggling for a strategic point on Wilson's creek Caldwell county, North Caro lina, along the route recently located by the Carolina and North-Western for its extension across the mountains into the coal fields. H. L. Milner, who has been actively at work fox unknown parties in locating a trans montane line, appeared there Saturday last and began grading with a small force oi men. Immediately the Carolina and North-Western sent fifty men to the point and the force has since been increased to 100. President William A. Barber, General Manager L. T.
