Nov. 7th—Miss Essie Cansler. one of tbe most handsome looking young .ladies that ever lived iu East Gaston, and daughter of Uncle Shoog, has returned home from quite an extensive visit to her sisters iu Catawba county, aud bas been quite sick at her home. Misses Ottic aud Elvira Hipp taro of East Gaston's belles, have returned home from Char lotte, where they have been on a visit to their sisters. Mr. Audy Hipp who has been the west several years, has re turned home and will live on Mr. Sidney Cannon’s farm next. We will welcome him as a per manent resident among us. Mr. A. M. Mangua, who has had ao much aickueaa in bia family tbia summer, will move in a few dayi itoin (lie Rankin farm to High Shoals cotton mill. He will ron a beef mar ket while bis family will keep a boarding house. Mr. Mangus and family are worthy people and we will regret the loss of him from our section, bnt hope they will do well at tbeir new home. we are loosing tor ur. J. K Roger* to soon return to tbe Johnston farm wnicb he left a year ago to go to Hickory. Mr. Roger* i* the kind of man we want among n*. He it all right. Open View farm ha* quite • number of hog* to kill tlii* year, iu two pen* there are 1U each and in another 7 making 30 in all. Rev. T. T. Salyer preached hi* last sermon for this year st River Bend yesterday. W e hope the Conference will send him back next year. We don’t know wbat’a the matter with Uncle Shoog, now adays he has quit going up and down the roads. We could ex cuse him during tbe summer seasons for not traveling much, hut now as turtle season is about over we would like to see him occassional ly. Bob Black says that he and Uncle Uriah arc still hooting, but the kind of game they are hunting is hard to get. It does seetn hard for them to get some one to say yes. We have noted from lime to time Mt. W. T. Jordau’s leav ing Mountain Island, which was regretted by many of his frieuda hut his friends will be glad to know that he has a good posi tion at McCall, S. C., in a cot ton mill. Mr. Joseph Tate of Baltimore, spent several days last week with his brother, Jaa. E. Tate, who is manager of Monntain Island cotton mills, for the Wil liam J. Hooper Manafacturing Company, we say it with out the fear of successful contradic tion that this company is one of the most liberal that we know of. They baveaway of doing bus iness that pleases almost every body, tad ine more one see* of them the more tbey like them. They, as well ay their managers, are open-hearted; In fact the biggest hearted people we most ever knew. They support a nice chnrch at the mill and keep in touch with all public enterprises, by making liberal donations to them. One of the moat charitable things that they have done for a long time was last spring when their milling interests in Baltimore were burned out, thna throwing out of employment lota of people who were dependent on them for a support. They kept them right along on the pay roll Just the same as if they were at work. Can any one imagine any thing tbey could have done that would have been better than that. We like those thst will giva freely and to those that *ara in need bnt we have no faith in those that give for advertising purposes. We know of some in our state thst boast of having given mneb at times who did not do It with a free will bnt ex pected the people to favor them in return. Bnt the people taw their object and when tbey naked for aid in return they turned them down. We warn the people against this kind of fakirs. Every thing is pretty quiet in Bast Gaston now, hence It is that wa csh account for the little cold snaps that we are having. Which it very good indeed and makas as far) good. Kev. T. T. Salyer took dinner last Sunday with Col. and Mrs. Abemethy, who admire him very mack. We want to request again that our authorities be careful when tbey employ school teacher* for this winter and get people of good moral habits. Let's not have any that smoke and drink before the pupils while in school. Let's teach our teachers that tbey most do tbair smoking and drinking in their own homes instead of in and around the school room where our people send their children to learn good morals as well os their books Ninety per cent of the cotton is now picked from the field*, and the most of the corn is gathered and when the farmers get their oata and wheat sowed tbey cau then take a rest.

Why people of good position, particularly if they have no scruples worth mentioning, should complain of hard times in England, goes beyond me. There is always the wouderfnl credit system to fall back npon. I conld live a couple of years without a penny of income. At the end of that time 1 conld calmly retire under tbe shelter ing wing of the bankruptcy of ficials and oo oue would beuefit from my dishonesty. Every one gives credit, and the system, in stead of being curtailed, seems to grow. 1 described a year or so ago the history of a young man and woman who were married with nothing more to back them than a sound belief in themselves and a few silver things that bad been presented to them on their wed ding-day. I told how they lived in great luxury in Park L*ue lor a couple of years a: >d gave tbe moat expensive and exclusive dinners, luncheons, and suppers, and how they finally disappeared. Pour similar cases have come under my notice then, one of them particularly aggravating, so far as the creditors are con cerned. A_xL. ._ - » «» ui iwcuiy in au ana tocratk cavalry regiment found it impossible to conceal from his father the fact that bd had contracted debts to the extent of over 5,000 pounds. The father promptly “lifted" the boy out of the service and placed him in an insurance broker's office in the city, where he was to receive the munificent salary of fifty ponads a year. The first year’s expenditures returned to the father by a set ot complaint creditors amounted to over 8,000 pounds. The bov had taken two shoot ings, had hired a vacht for Cowes Week, had given endless sapper parties at the beat hotels, all on credit, had smoked itiauut arable cigars that cost something like two shillings each: and all of this on the strength of his having been in the army! The boy, being Ju»t under age, es caped the punishment generally meted out to such offenders, and his fattier commuted with the the creditors, bnt 1 understand that tbs youth continues to live like e prince on his SO pounds •-year.__ What He Wanted.

J1L. .L'~ ■ .if g-!— WOMEN'S CONVENTIONS Marked Cmlnil Iitwm Him* •l Thirty sr Eerty Year* Age Mg New. Chlrsco Inn Ouia Several hnndrcd rcpresetUa tivc women of Illinois are taking part in the proceedings of the teuth annual Slate convention of the Federated Women’s Clubs, at Danville, fn one par* ticnlar tbia convention of wo men i* in marked contraat with the wonien’a convention* of thirty and forty yearn ago. In the older conventions the main topic of discussion was woman’s suffrage or woman’s rights. Woman was pictured by strong women as suffering under a great wrong because she was denied the privilege of voting. The couventions were dominated by aggressive spirits preaching a new crusade for tbe progress ot the race through the enfranchisement of women. The programmes were limited to discussions of woman’s rights, the chief of which was the suffrage. Tbe eloquence of the couventions—and there were eloquent women then, too —was given to pleas foranffrage. The »uvwini|cc uj iuc convcn* tiotit—and more often than not great lawyer* were present—was given to arguments for woman's suffrage. Woman’s suffrage was the subiect over which conven tion battles raged. In tbc convention at Danville, made up of delegates from 251 clnbs, and representing a mem bership of 24,000 women, wo man's suffrage ia not dismissed, and is not mentioned on the programme. The women scheduled lor speeches are to apeak of schools and their needs, of »ork iu social settlements, of conditions in our factories, of the field of industrialism oc cupied by women, of domestic science, of the home training of children, of literature, musk, and art in the home and in vil lages and cities. The men invited to address the convention are to talk, not on the legal statu* of woman as a voter, not of the wrongs of women nndt-T man-made laws, but on how children in our large cities may be rescued from crime, how manual training uwy be utilised iu the school and the home, how women may contribute to the betterment of society in general It will not be denied that the women in the convention at Danville as truly represent their sex as did those of the conven tions of thirty yesrs ago, who bad a different idea of woman’s sphere and mission. It will not be denied tbat the clnbs repre sented by the several hundred delegates at Danville arc as fully aliyc to woman’s interests as were the clnbs represented in suffrage conventions. It may even be assumed that the wo men at Danville represent iu Ihetr delegate capacity more kinds of women than did the delegates to the older conven tions. _X . 1_ _ . a • %*• v vunuuai uc* tween tbe old and tbe new con ventions indicates that the wo man’s point of view to-day is different from the woman's point of view thirty and forty years ago. If the difference between the old and uew conventions does not mean that, what does it mean? The 6rst snow of tbe season fell at New Haven Conn., Sun day. ADAMS DlUOCirS SUCCCBS.
