He replied "I am half as old as my father. He is two years older than my mother,,.: My eldest sister is two years older than my youngest sister. My youngest sis ter is four years older than my young est brother.". How old are they al together?" asked the preacher. The young man replied that the five chil dren are seventeen years older than his father and mother. How old is John and each of the children und his father and mother? Exchange. Well, if the young man isn't married until the preacher gets his age figured out, Methuselah would be a kid compared to him.

"This is an apparent increase of $60, j 000,000 over the appropriations at the last session of Congress. made Thin , "Pparrnt excess m appropriations is I'oit than accounted for in the folloW- ing items: "For the Isthmian Canal $42,447,000; under the Statehood bill $10,250,000: toward the constructions of new build- j ings authorized at this session $10,321,- ooo, making a total of ?b3,01b,000, to which might properly be added $5,000, 000 for San F rancisco. Other notable increases are $3,000 000 on the agricultural bill for inspec tion of meat products, and $10,600, 000 on account of the Postal service. "The total apparent appropriations made at this session, 880,183,301, do not constitute in their entirety charge against the revenues of the government for the next fiscal year for the reason that there must be de ducted from this sum deficiencies that are chargeable to the service of the current year and to meet expenditures already incurred on account thereof, approximating at least $35,000,010. This sum includes 16,000,000 for the Isthmian Canal. "There should be deducted $57,000, 000 for the sinking fund, which may not be met in whole or part, as it is purely a matter of discretion with the secretary of the treasury to utilize the surplus in the treasury fur that pur- "There should also be deducted the sum of $22,000,000 which is estimated and included in the whole sum of ap propriations to be paid out of deposits of national banks in redemption . of circulating notes of banks. The de posits are not credited ss a part of the revenues of the government, and there fore redemptions made from the fund thus arising should not be charged to expenditures. "The amount of $25,45ti,415appropri ated for work on the Isthmian Canal during the next tided year is payable from or reimbursed to the treasury out of proceeds of bonds that are au thorized to be sold for that purpose and should also be deducted from the sun af appropriations tor 1907. "The sums mentioned amoun to mire than $139,o00,0uo, and when de- ducted leave appropriations, ot on:y appropriations, of $741,000,OJO to be met out of the reve nues of tne next fiscal year. "In my judgment the total apparent resources of the government next year are not less than $781,573,000 or at least $40,000,000 in excess of ap propriations that may be chaigid against them." Mr. Livingston of Georgia, the rank ing Democratic member on the appro priations committee of the house made a brief reply to Mr. Tawney, and war ned the Republicans that unluss they provided some means to increase the revenues that the next Congress would be called upon to explain for the de limit .He will submit a statement of appropriations later. ' '. A New Star fa the Pl(. On the 4th of July new national flags will be raised over all government buildings and reservations. This is made necessary by the admission of Oklahoma as a State, adding another star 16 the flag. Oklahoma, the now State, is composed of the Territory of that name and Indian Territory, - and conies into the Union with approxi mately a million of people, and five members of Congress. It has 70,430 square miles, being just .about as large as Gejrgia, nnd is rich in agricultural and mineral resuurccs. In Oklahoma there are 11, CO) and in Indian Territory 53.000 Indians-a total of 61, 000 Indiana) in a million of population, about 7 per cent., which fact seems to insure "white supremacy" from the start.

Osborne, the young man charged with bigamy, was bound over t j Superior co .rt under a bond of $300 at a preliminary healing before Mayor Murphy yesterday afternoon. The case was c ntinued from last Saturday on the ground that Osborne had been given no time to summon his witnesses, and yesterday Col. J. A. Barringer, his counsel, asked for an other continuance on the ground that the witnesses had not responded to the summons. Col. J. T. Morehead, who represented the prosecution, however, urged the hearing, and after much par leying had told them that the first mar riage was illegal because wife number one already had a husband or two The Rev. L. F. Johnson testified that he had recently married Osborne to a young woman of this city. A smiling, and seemingly much ex cited, rosy cheeked man by the name of Wyrich, was then introduced by the State. lie swore chat he was in Salis bury Monday night, and had seen Jessie Lynn, the woman who has alleged Os borne first married. His evidence was no surprise to the defense, who makes no claim that the woman is dead, but rest their case upon the ground that the marriage was null and void, since the woman already had a husband. Col. Barringer, however, saw a chance to have some amusement at the exnense of the witness and the cros-i-examina-tion was conducted something like the following: "Now, Mr. Wyrick," began the law yer, "you say you know the woman ulr. Osborne first married?" "Yes, sir," was the smiling reply. "And you also know, or knew, his present wife, didn't you, Mr. Wyrick?" continued the liwyer. "Yes, sir," and the smile grew lar ger. And you intended marrying her, were even tngaged to her, were you not, Mr. Wyrick asked the merciless attorney. 'Yes, sir," and the smile changed into a gnu. "But," continued the interrogator, "you let this fedow, Osborne, cut you out and even marry your girl; isn't that a fact?" "Yes, sir," and the beaming counte nance of the witness was suddenly flooded with a scarlet tinge. The witness could not positively say that Ofborne had ever married Jessie Lynn,, and his entire testimony wad thrown out by the court. Col. Morehead contended that the only defense Osborne offered was that while in a drunken condition he had married the Lynn woman at Salisbury. He heard she was already blessed with a husband and deciding that he was no longer bound to her, n arried another woman. s On the other hand Col. Barringer argued that the first marriage was null .. , . , a divorce from the first woman he mar ried because the marriage was void. The mayor decided to let the higher court decide the matter and he bound Osborne over to court with the remaik t.iat he "believed marriage too sacred a state to be trafficked in any such manner." -Greensboro News.

Kitchin to represent the district in Congress. The conven tion was held in Greensboro and fully 250 people were present. It was a brief but harmonious meeting, lasting just an hour. Mayor O. B. Eaton, of Winston-Salem, pre ented, in a ringing speech of several minutes the name of Hon. W. W. Kitchin, the present member from this district. Mr. Eaton said that it was a great honor to De nominated for the fifth time in this district, in which there are bo many able men. he paid a high tribute to the Congressman and his course in Congress. J. W. Forbis moved that the nomination be made bv acclamation and the motion went through with a whoop. After thanking the convention for the honor conferred upon him, Mr. Kitchin plunged at once into the dis cussion of political conditions in the district and nation. He said that he realized that some of the Democrats in the district did not agree with him in all matters, but he could not expect of his every act to meet the approval of all, for he did not agree with the views of all Democrats. The speaker said that the man who approved the course of President Roose velt approved the Democratic platform, lor rreaiuent Kooseveit a views are synonomous with the principles of the Democratic party. The Congressman Baid he would be willing to canvass the district with the candidate tho Republican convention may nominate.

Anderson, who is a trav eling man and "on the road" much of the time, was talking the other day about the use of the expression, "on the road" to designate a traveling man's (drummers they used to call them) business. A colored tenant of mine," said Mr. Anderson, "was in the habit of sending his rent weekly by his boy. Some weekB passed and neither the boy nor the rent showed up and meeting the old man I asked him where the boy wa?. 'He's on the road,' was the answer. What's he traveling for?" Mr. Anderson asked. 'Oh, he.s out heah on de chain gang. " Mr. Anderson thinks it would be well in using the expression, "on the road," to specify. It may mean one is a trav eling salesman or it may mean he has a chain on his leg and is helpimr h'l ld- irg county roads. -Statesville Land mark. Ouly i Years Old.
