Riddle and Mlaa Helen Riddle, of Bethel, came to Yorkville Tuesday, on ac count of the nines* of Mr. Riddle’s sister, Mrs. M. J. Clark. There is a good deal of open cotton throughout York connty abd the first bale ongbt to be on the market within the next week or ten days. The rural carriers of York county should organise an as sociation. They are sufficiently numerous to get up quite a re spectable organisation. The Chester Lantern is very Utter against Mr. Finley as to that court boost matter, and the odUook is that aa the result of feeling that has been worked up aloog this line, Mr. Finley is going to lose a great many votes tn Chester. The Lantern claims that a vote for Finley is a vote against Chester county. A fine Jersey boll belonging to Mr. C. E. Spencer was killed by an extra train on the South ern railroad on the Wbiaonant property night before last at about 12 o’clock. The ball had gotten ont of its pasture and was roaming at large.

Mr. James B. Kennedy, of Yorkvilk, has been notified of his appointment aa instructor of political economy at the Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, for the year 1906 07.

A boy was standing beside a stall where a farmer waa selling cherries one day when he saw a coin lying on the ground and honestly picked it np and gave it to the farmer. "Thank you,” laid the fanner. "If yon are always like thia you will get on well. Here, take a handful of cherries.” "No, thank yon," said the boy. "Why not?” said the fanner. "I would rather you would give them me,” said the boy. The termer gave the boy a handful himself. "Why did you wish me to give them yon?” said the man. "Because your hand is bigger than mine,” the boy replied. Cel. Whipple’s Ice Cream. Bowes Herald. The late Col. Tom Whipple, of Laconia, N. H., a veteran of the Mexican and civil wart, and for many years a lender of the New Hampshire Bar, waa not often caught napping, but the following occurred at a fair held by a charitable organization of hia home town: Thn attendant at the ice cream booth, an auctioneer noted for hia wit, seeing the colonel near, gave the wink to the bystanders and called out in n loud voice: Right thia way, colonel; come right ia and get all the Ice cream you can eat lor 10 cento.” Thn colonel, being very food nf tram Maam a__ __. •t a table and waa aerved with a diab of the frosty compound, ^which he disposed of la short twder, remarking to tbo waiter that he coulda’t see where the profit to the society was coming in. as be was going to eat at laa« six dishes more. He was atetfly surprised when told that if bf did it woold cost him 60 cents'.' ’ "But," said the colonel, "you told me to coma in and gat all the ice cream I could eat lor 20 cents." "Just so," replied the waiter, "end you’re got it. One dish is all yon can set here for 10 cents.” W. M. Hippy, tha man who tried to desert bis wife at Osff ney, alarmed the Commercial Hotel colony there Sunday morning at font o’clock by as attempt to commit suicide.

Roanoke Island, which is the eastern rim of civilisation, is well worth the trip with aU Its changes and trials. The bland b some twelve miles long by three miles wide, with a popu lation of 2,500, nod containing the connty town of Manteo, named after the big chief of the tribe of Hatteraa. We have always wondered why the county seat of Dan was established on an island cut off from the mainland by the soead. A dtben explained the sitaation bv saying that Roan eke bland b the largest body of land In Dare connty and within easy reach oi tho majority of ha population. Dam b mostly water. Sheriff Etheridge can reach nearly every citizen’s home by boot, and 11 he owns a boggy he has little ase for it. On the. bland there Is some fairly good farming land, bat most of it b wet and boggy. Oa the shore of the see, some three miles away, them am great ranges of sand doses that look like md mountains in the distance, and that shift from place to place, covering every- j thing that Uea la their pathway.1 At Nag’s Head there arc several buildings that am doomed, end r_ _ a .a • . w ■ inuiai uiiuk Ul BTC LUC Mod slowly creeping toward s home that most finally be buird fifty feet under tbe hagc red bU). The place where ibe old hotel stood (which was burned some years ago) is covered with tbe sand and if the building had not been destroyed by fire it would have been overwhelmed with sand. Nothing can stay the onward march of tbe monster. The wind blowing over it sends tbe delicate sheet down toward the so nth and it is carious to watch the process, so steady and yet so gentle, that results at last in otter destruction. It is one of tbewooders of this section of the North Carolina coast, which abounds in so many things of natural as well as historic in terest. The principel business of the island is the fishing industry. Many varieties of valuable fish are caught and tbe business bes reached immense proportions. The discovery of gasoline as a motive power Darius boating easy and swift. Hardly a row boat can be found on the bosom of the broad sound, but even tbe smaller craft, which were formerly propelled by tbe labor ing oarsman, glides over the water by gasolene power. It is an easy matter to get over ground (or rather sen.) tbe aver age speed of the lannches being from seven to nine milea an hoqr. Manteo It a town of some six or seven bandied souls and re sembles tbe ordinary aeacoaat village, which we have seen wherever the ocean roars. The streets are sandy, the water brackish, the nlsnk sidewalk* opt of repair, the people alow ip their movements end ready al **y* ,to the stronger aad help him, too. Thclfanteo folks ere intelligent end coar teoa*. They, believe in cdncn* Hon and keep, in close connec tion with the world from which they one detached by the muddy waters of the sound. The island of Roanoke, as oar feeders know, is fall of historic in terete. Of eonrse we visited the old fort where Virginia Dote was born sod where White’s col “»? was late seen as the ship ••i**5 •wsy for the shore of Ragland. A circular row of stoat* mirks the outline of the old fort, while In the center stands a modest monument tell ing the simple story of the col ony that vanished owt of sight. It gives one n peculiar thrill to onjbe historic spot and tt* with hisown ayes the place where the history of oar great old Common wealth had Us be ginning. Mr. Bmosett Marsh, a well known young tana of Otfncy, who wusjight clerk at the Com mends! Hotel there, was drown ed Sunday afternoon while bath ing tn n pond near town.
