At present the American licet is held together ready to sail for any port threat ened with an outbreak. The officials do uot fear harm to Americans and Ameri can interests through luck of proper precaution by the powers, but that the Chinese, who have been demoralized since their defeat by Japan, might sud lenly break out and lrat all Europeans and Americans alike.

Civil Service in . Marshal's Office. JoUKNAI. BUKEAU. Rai.eIoii. N. C, Dec. 23. 1 The United States Supreme Court lias postponed the the hearing in the con stitutionality of the lax on fertilizers as imposed in tins State, from January 17th to February 21st. The case comes up as the Patapsico Guano (Jo., vs The State Board of Agriculture. There lius been shipped from Durham this week four solid c:ir loads of smoking tobacco, by the Blackwell Durham To bacco Co , to California. The weather is brisk and crisp today with every prospect of a cold, but beau tiful Christinas. The trains were crowded yesterday with girls and bovs from all the numer ous colleges hero and around here going home to enjoy Ihe t.'hristmas holidays. The Stale Board of Public Chanties has been in session here several days. The report of the superintendent of t lie Sol dier's Home is as follows. During the year just ended a chapel costing has been built. Twelve of the old vet erans have died, and there are now one hundred and two enrolled at the Home. The Home secures .."iOO as a State appropriation and '350 in rents. They raised there lust year or since the last report 2.408 pounds ol pork. In the reports now the various counties it was shown that the County Homes were in bad condition in Hie fol lowing counties, Bladen, Burke, Dare, Brunswick and Jones, there arc no homes for the poor in Carteret, Clav, Currituck, (indium, Harnett, Lenoir and Polk. It was found that in one county the poor was farmed out to the lowest bidder at $2,12J per month. .Many j dis were reported as in very bad condition. The fact that crime is on the increase in the State was largely discussed. The penitentiary furnished no report to the Board. The constitution providts that when the proper time comes that a home for Idiots and inebriates must be provi ded. It was decided that the proper time had come, for these unfortunates are confined in the County Homes. In the appointment of the new force in the U. 8. Marshal's otlice s nie peoide have been given places that are held by nersons under the civil service law. It remains to be seen whether Ihe places can easily be obtained.
