IN A BRIEF FORM THE NEWS SINCE OUR LAST ISSUE CONDENSED. Sparks Caught Hot From The Wires, Dealing With New Of Various Sections. Some of the largest cotton mills in the Piedmont section of North and South Carolina will close down for the next one or two weeks to curtail the output. 4. A vigorous campaign is to be inaugu rated at the annual convention of the North Carolina Society for the Preven tion of Tuberculosis to be held at Greensboro in January, - Editor I. J. Witchard, of the Green ville, X. C, Reflector, was brutallys saulted Saturday- by J. R. Hutchings following the publication of an article several days ago of w hich the latter dis approved. Kufus W. Peckham,. associate justice of the United States Supreme Court, diedat his summer home near Albany, X. Y., Sunday night. He ascended the Supreme Court in 48U6 as a Cleveland appointee. . V In some unaccountable way, Charles Finch, a student of Guilford College, fell from the platform of the Winston train near Greensboro Saturday after noon and sustained injuries from which he died at St. Leo's Hospital. William II.

Because he was asked to pay $10 for A plate at the lunch which will be given t President Taft on the occasion of his visit to Columbia Nov. fth, Senator Tillman has declined to attend and states that he may not serve"on the re ception committee. In New York City the event of most vital interest is the municipal campaign. O-i November i! the city will cast its votes for three mayoralty candidates and the political managers have planned a finish that will fill every corner of the city with . campaign oratory and litera ture. Col. B. Frank Mcbarie, of Spray, is in Chicago attending the meeting and b-inquet of the Chicago Association of Commerce and making arrangements for the proper representation of the landed interests of North Carolina at the "National Farm Land Congress which opens in Chicago Nov. 16. Personages and persons rather thin events promise to hold the greater shale of public interest during the com ing week. The President of the United States sailing down the country's great est inland waterway and the Kmperorof Russia pursuing his carefully guarded way back to St. Petersburg stand out as the most prominent figures, while King Atfooso and his Spanish '.advisers; the Wri ht brothers, Sir Thomas Lipton, Jim Jeffries, Commander Peary and Dr. Cook will contribute to the week's news, Glasson Gets Commission. A special from Washington to the R ilcigh News and Observer says that th? director of the census bureau has f jrwarded to Prof. William II. Glasson, of Trinity College, his commission for c "hsus supervisor for the Fifth North Carolina district.

One of the earliest attractions to visit the South this season is the Russian Symphony Orchestra, which is to be heard in Greensboro October 2lh, 1900, at the Grand Opera House. ' For several years past, the Orchestra his played in the principal cities in the United States and Canada with remark able success and by the leading papers is recognized as being on the same nigh plane of excellence as the Thomas Or chestra, The Pamrosch and like organ izations. The Russian Symphony Or. chestra of New York was organised for the purpose of acquainting the Amer public with the notable works of the composers of the Old and Young Rus sian School, performed in a devotional spirit, with the best possible artistic en semble. The vogue of Russian music among" the great symphonic conductors of this country and Europe, testifying to the unmistakable des're of the pub lic to hear Russian music, and the pres ence in New York of a number of musi cians, graduates of the Moscow, St. Petersburg and other Conservatories, prompted the formation or the Russian Symphony Orchestra. An organization resulted, all musicians of sterling merit and wide experience in orchestral work. Many of them had enjoyed either the friendship or tbe tutelage of the leading modern Russian composers and con ductors, and were, therefore, particu larly well fitted to interpret the Rus sian masterpieces for the American pub lic. , Fromjhe first the Orchesta scored an emphatic success with the prjss and public of New York. The fire and fin ish of its work, the skill and magnetic personality of its conductor, ; Modest Altschuler, and the novelty of its pro gramme, resulted in a remarkable dis play of critical approval. It is in this manifestation of public interest and ap proval that has influenced the Society further to extend its scope, in response to numerous requests, and give con certs of Russian Music throughout the country, and this will be the first hear ing in this section of the States.

Two-If ear-Old Child Fined $5. That a two-year-old child had been arrested and fined $5 for ben: on the streets in Madison, was the news brough t to the city last night by a Winston-Salem busites man, who had just return- 1 from that town. It was all on ac count of diptheria. It seems that there is quite a bit of the disease scattered around, and the city fathers passed an ordinance that no child under thirteen years of age should be allowed on the streets, . The little child of Mr. Sterling Web ster, who manages Hotel Sterling, escaped to the street and was lovingly garnered into the tender arms of a burly cop. The trial came on, with Mayor C. O. McMichael presiding. The evidence was heard and the youngster, or rather the father, wes fined $5 and the costs. ; With vari-colored fire shooting from his optics, Mr. Webster informed the big mnyor that the case was appealed to the Superior Court of Rockingham county, where it would be fought to the last ditch or words to that effect. Wins lo Journal. Recital at Albermarle. The musical recital given by Miss Sarah Staples last night, assisted by Mesdames Milton and Price, was en- oyed by one of the most representative audiences assembled in Albermarle for some time, and was another evidence of the coming to the front of the Alber marle Normal and Industrial College. The vocal music rendered "by Messrs. R. Price and Walter Milton was as usual excellent, and added much to the enjoyment of the occasion. Miss Staples is head of the music department of this institution and she is worthy of the trust that has been committed to her by the president, Rev. George II Atkinson. All the pieces were good, but in (he last rendered by her, "Hark, Hark, the Lark," she showed her abil ity and artistic skill in finger work, and variation of tone. '..''- The college has made good in enlist ing Miss Staples' services. The citizens of Albermarle are becoming thoroughly interested in this school and are dailv realising that same is something for which Abermarie should be iustlv proua.

According 'to an official rey6rtmade to tbe state department by James W. Ragsdale, United States consul .in St. Petersburg. Siberia, Russia's great Asiatic realm. Is far from being the frozen, barren country "pictured to themselves by Americans when they hear Its name. In his report Mr. Ragsdale sets forth the results of his own observations made while traveling from Tientsin, China, to St Petersburg. He presents a striking picture of the development of Siberia and the wonderful possibill ties there. "--.' Mr. Ragsdale comments on tbe gno rance that prevails throughout the wotjd as to Siberia. He says those who have never visited the' country have only exaggerated Ideas gathered from descriptions that picture Siberia as a cold, barren waste swept by storms and of little value to any one. "That the winters are long and cold there can be no doubt." be says, "but they are no worse than the wlntefsln northern Canada, now being so rapidly settled by people from nil parts of the world. The solL too, of these vast ter ritories is as rich and fertile as" that of Canada and very much resembles the lands In the great states of Illinois, Iowa and Nebraska, except that It Is better watered and timbered." Bigger Thin the United States. - Mr, Ragsdale reminds us that Siberia Is an enormous territory, representing no less than 5,400,000 square miles, or much larger than the whole of the United States, Including Alaska. "The country Is beautiful from every point of view and w ill some day be thickly populated. Here game Is plen tiful, and the trapper has a field that Is rich in fur bearing animals, such as the black and other foxes, ermine, sable of all kinds, otter, mink, marten, weasel, squirrel, lynx and wolf. The furs of this locnlltyJlnd the best mar kets In China, the United States and England through- the Pacific ports. A better article, found In Kamchatka and other parts of Siberia, is sent overland to Moscow. Whence It is distributed to the whole of Russia, a considerable quantity finding Its way to Leipzig." Discussing "the niiues of "Siberia, speaking of gold, Mr. Ragsdale says gold Is known to exist In almost every district, both in quartz and placer, but the methods nrp poor.

' Many of the mountains, es pecially the L'ruls. are exceedingly rich in precious stones.

The train was on a siding near the station and the fire which was discovered about 10 o'clock, originated in the commissary car. Its origin is unknown. The railroad station in Mayodan is. situated at the foot of a small mountain or steep bluff on the eist side, the same being covered at this time with brilliant autumn foliage and the glare of the fire against the side of this mountain afforded a rare and re markable spectacle. s can to give you entire satisfaction. DIVORCE RATE INVESTIGATION. SHOWS BIG INCREASE. Almost a Million Separations in Twenty Years, the West Being in the Lead. The census bureau Las Dubllahed a joojprehensive report on marriage and divorce. The investigation of tbe sub- tect was ondertaken by direction of congress and grew out of a conference in Washington by representatives of various relisrious denominations. The Investigation has extended over a pe riod of nearly five years. 'Apparently the divorce rate, like the velocity of a falling body, is constant ly Increasing." says the report, "and It is Impossible to determine statistically from available data lust what the re sults would be If the rate reached at any particular time remained constant; In other words, no statistics bearing on this question of the duration of mar riages terminated by alvorce nave been obtained that accurately represent present conditions or conditions at any particular period, for tbe conditions are not static, but dyuamle." v Statistics For Twenty Years. The statistics cover a period from 1S87 to the end of 190G. and the total number of marriages recorded was 12,- S32,01i. The Investigation showed that In the twenty years covered the num ber of divorces granted was 915,023. In the twenty years from 1807 to 1SS8 the number was about 328.716. hardly more than one-third of the number re corded in the second twenty years. The report says that each successive Ave year period since 1807 has witnessed a marked Increase in the number of divorces. The renort contends that it Is & well established fact that the marriage rate Is quickly responsive to changes in economic conditions. Increasing in pe riods of prosperity and decreasing after a commercial crisis or panic during hard times, nnd that especially note worthy Is the small Increase shown ror t'je vear 1893 and the actual decrease In the succeeding year. More Divorces In Western States. The renort savs that the Dercentage, of marriages Is higher in tne soma than in the north nnd that outsiae tne south the highest percentage prevail ia the middle west, In the south At lantic group of states the rate was 350 marriages per 10.000 of adult unmar- 1 muni!. 11 ion against 200 -In the north A 1 l.i 11 lie. states and 430 in the south central.' as against 322 In the north 'central and 273 per 10,000 adult unmarried 'population in the westenj group (If SIMM'S. In . I'.Miii tin- highest divorce rate per 100.0W) estimated population, 168, was reported from the western division, a rate which win more than four times hat reported from the north Atlantic division. 41. and almost four times hat reported from the south Atlantic, 13. The rate for the north central dl islon. 108. was almost two and two- third times that for the north Atlantic, while that tor the south central, lis. was two nnd three-fourth times that for tbe south Atlantic. Broadly speak- lng, the divorce rate Increases as one goes westward. FOR STOMACH AGONY Ask Brittain About Mi-o-na, it Gives Relief in Five -Minutes.
