STATE GEOLOGISTS EXHIBIT.
North Carolina Mineral Display In the
.Mines Building at Jamestown. .
One of the nost attractive exhibits '
In the Mines and Metallurgy building
at the Jamestown exposition is that of
North Carolina. The display is of In
terest to the scientist in that it con
tains many rare minerals aud gems
and some of rare crystallization. The
collection and Installation of this ex
hibit have been nndef the direct charge
f Dr. Joseph Hyde Pratt, state geolo
gist of North Carolina. The exUibit
consists in the main of building

chromlte, specimens of abrasives, such
as millstones or buhrstonos, corundum
and garnet, and quite an elaborate dis
play of gems and precious stones, cut
and uncut. ' i .'.
Mica has also a prominent place
among the North Carolina minerals,
and the North Carolina mica Is regard
ed as str.nd a rd.
North Carolina is well supplied with
mineral waters of various medicinal
qualities, and these are . well represent
ed In bottled form by the many owners.
Other economic" minerals, as copper,
gold, silver, barytes, ' graphite, coal,
Iron, chromlte, etc., -are displayed
prominently, and many minerals of in
terest to the scientist, as feldspar,
flexible sandstone or itaeolumite, the
ores or urnnium, etc.. are included In
this exhibit. '
The portion of the exhibit that has
appealed most strongly to all who en
ter the Mines bulUIng Is' the splendid
array of -gems and precious stones.
These collections have Ibtvn furnished
by Dr. Jo?p Ilyde rrett, state geolo
gist; American Gem and Pearl com
pany of New York, and the state mu
seum. The two g?ms found exclusive
ly In North Carolina, rhodolite aud
hlddeulte, are eagerly sought, and the
splendid array of rubles, garnets, ame
thysts, emeralds, emerald matrix,
beryls, Including the golden blue and
aquamarine, corundum gems, rutilated
rose and opalescent quArtz, oligoclase,
cnrnellans, cairngorms, snnstones. etc.,

NORTH CAROLINA FURNITURE.
Fine Display in the States' Exhibit

North Carolina. hasXttliue famed in
many directions and for many rea
sons, and not tue least or inese is on
account of her furniture aud textile
ffletoiies. With the'-dismay of the
varied industries of the state at tbe
Jamestown exposition there Is a fine
exhibit along these lines of manufac
ture. These departments ate In charge

FORESTRY, FISH AND GAME.
Odd Specimens on View In These See
tione White Possum end Albino
Raccoon Agricultural Pyramid With
Its Novel Peanut Umbrella.
The North Carolina exhibit in the
States' Exhibit Palace at the James-
town exposition Is second to none la
the building. It is compact and ex
haustive and thoroughly exploits the
resources of the state, natural aud
manufactured. Covering something
over COW square feet of floor space in
tbe northwest corner of the building,
Just to the left of the main entrance,
this exhibit is In tbe form of the capi
tal letter "L," with a square within it
This square contains about 8,000
square feet of floor space and displays
tho exhibits of agriculture, forestry,
fish and game. That space contained
In the "L" accommodates the exhibits
of like character in the building. The
collective assemblage cost $15,000,
twice as much being spent In the
square as In the side booths.
The state colors blue, red and white
are prominently displayed In the dec
orations, and yet the prevailing scheme
Is cream and gold. Around the several
section?) of the exhibit is a railing of
polished brans. The posts supporting
this rail are finished in cream and gold.
On the top of each Is a flagstaff with a
golden ball. The eurfunces and there
are some eight or ten of them are
flanked with tall cream white columns
with Ionic capitals. Rurmounted by
gilded eagles with wings outspread.
Draped In festoons between the col
umns In the central booth are cords of
gilded and colored peanuts In unique
and artistic decorations, aided by nu
merous designs of grain and forage
plants.
Ou account of Its slae and unusual
appearance the decorated building in
the central exhibit catches your at
tention almost Immediately, On the
sides and roof of this little house Is
shown In quaint designs and displays
nearly every principal agricultural
product of North Carolina. The roof
is made of cornshucks, the Bides of
wheat, tobacco, 'grasses, cornstalks.
cotton and clipped grain. Among the
most attractive designs, on the house
are the monogram of the stnte,ant! the
seal of the department of agriculture,
The most artistic display In the booth
and one that will not fail to call forth
admiration Is an agricultural pyramid,
built in four sections and exhibiting In
tubes and Jars nil the grain products
of the state. Covering this, drooping
from (he top, Is a hanging umbrella of
artificially colored peanuts, blending
perfectly with the brown and yellow
grain and with the red background
with which the very picturesque pyra
mid Is finished.
In the exhibit of agriculture there
ore unusually line samples of all North
Carolina grains and grasses In the
sheaf or bundle.-' While the whole
state of North Carolina Is represented
by the fine exhibits of the department
of sfn-icuHnre, a great many of the
fiuest were sent from the plantation of
W. II. Robins, near Raleigh, Mr. Rob
Ins himself arranclng them In the
booth.
Though a by no menus ancient scl
ence, forestry finds many of Its ardent
students In North, Carolina, and the
exhibits In this department are sur
passed bv none of like nature at the
exposition.
Among the exhibits of the depart
ment of fish and game are several of
the most strange and unique at the
entire exposition. The visitor will
see a possum with creamy white hair
and beautiful pink eyes and an albino
snnlrrel as white as cotton.
In the same case with these rreaKs
he will see a yellow raccoon so nearly
approaching albinolsm as to be al
most a true representative of the
type. These three specimens are from
the North Carolina state ranseum,
where for the last several years they
have attracted great attention ana in
terest. - They were all killed in the
state, the possum having been caugui
near Raleigh, the raccoon near Wil
mington and the squirrel in Craven
county.
Then there are a number of game
and fur bearing animals, togetner
with a larga assortment of skins.
There is a case full of wild ducks
twenty-three varieties, two of eacn,
as a rule-and six or eight wild geese.
They were collected by II, II. Brlmlcy,
curator of the Nortn -Carolina muse
um, many specimens having been pre
pared especially for exhibit at the
exposition. With tho ducks is shown
a hybrid duck, a cross between a mal
lard and black duck, lais was snot
some time ago in North Carolina and
Hs one of the few specimens or ny-
brid ducks in existence.
The fishing Interests of tho state are
represented by a number of large
colored reproductions of the most im
portant flsh of North Carolina waters
and a full assortment of crabs, clams,
oysters, turtles, shrimps, etc.

THE TRIP TO JAMESTOWN.
The Review's Young Ladies Leave
Tuesday Morning.
The plans have been completed for
the trip of the young ladies who were
successful in The Review's contest to
the Jamestown Exposition. A repre
sentative of this paper went down to
Jamestown seveial days ago to com
plete all arrangements for their enter
tainment.
The party will leave Reidsville Tues
day morning, A-igust 13th, and will
arrive at the Inside Inn, in the Expo
sition grounds, that night, going in a
pecial car provided for the press
people by the Southern, and will be
present to enjoy all the exercises of
North Carolina Press Day Wednesday,
the 14 th-and take part in all the
special entertainment arranged for
North Carolina week.
An elaborate program has been
arrangia lor the week. Governor
Glenn und family will occupy the hand
some North Carolina building, and will
receive the people from this State. It
is estimated that 75,000 Carolinians will
be present during the week to take J
part in the exercises.
The Inside Inn was selected as the !
headquarters of our party after a visit
was made to all the resort hotels con
venient to the grounds, and the guests
will have all their meals served there
breakfast, luncheon and table d'hote
dinner, and have all the privileges of
the mammoth hotel.
The party will be accompanied by a
representate of The Review and a
chaperone who wHl look after their
comfort and pleasure. Alt the exhibits
and shows will be visited.
The trip will last a week, and prom
ises to be highly delightful
ICijied in
Wreck.
Mrs. Alvia Harris received a notice
Wadnesday morning that her brother,
Engineer W. C. Parker, of Spencer, had
been killed in a wteck near Raleigh the
night before, about 8 o'clock. The
moning papers conveyed the information
that the fireman on the engine with Mr
Parker, a young man named Young, was
also killed, and a negro. Jack Ripley,
fireman on the other engine in the col
lision, was buried under tbe wieckage.
The body of Engineer Parker was al
most entirely cremated.
The horrible wreck was a result of the
failure on the conductor and engineer
of the train which ran into Mr. Parker's
engine to read the orders properly. The
-xape of the passengers is considered
a miracle.
The shock to Mrs. Harris and her
mother was fearful, and the sympathy
of the entire community goes out to
them in their awful distress.
Mrs. Harris, who is vice-president of
theAlumnea Association of the Nor- !
mal College girls, had been preparing
for the exercises held under the auspices
of the normal girls Wednesday. The !
fea.ful shock which came to her cast a
gloom over the entire community, and
especially did those who had seen the
great interest she manifested in the en
tertainment feel the depressionoccabion
ed by the untimely death of her brother.
Robert Murdock, a stall-keeper in
the Aaheville market house, went to
the "Success Inn" Wednesday morning
and fired five bullets into the body of
Mrs. Laura Ray, the proprietress. He
then re-loaded the pistol and fired three
bullets into his own heart. Both were
dead in five minues. Mrs. Hay owed
Murdock $300, and it is supposed that
he was crazed by liquor. Murdock had
a wife and several children.
Aunt Catherine Mebane, an aged and
well thought of colored woman, died at
the borne of her daughter at Wentworth
this week. "Aunt Catherine" was
nearing the century post, and beir g
rais'din the South at a time when
present conditions did not exist between
the races, she was held in high esteem
by her white neighbors.
