Christmas Burr Mcintosh Monthly. When the 1904 Christmas number of this magazine was issued, the critics said it was impossible for the publish ers to get out a finer number but we believe that the Christmas 1905 number, which is now on all news stands, is very much more attractive than Christ mas numbers of previous years. The cover la an exquisite design in five colors and gold, the frontispiece, The Falconer by a celebrated European artist, also being in five colors. The form of portraits; containing such cele brities as Padrewski, Gen. F. D. Grant, Mrs. Geo. J. Gould, Maxine Elliott, Cecilia Loftus, -Lillian Russell and others, is printed on the somewhat rare 4-mdia tint paper in an exquisite tons of sepia ink. There are six plates, each printed In a number of colors and the panoraiuic views of scenes and Inci dents are printed In a variety of.double tone ink; three of the subjects are mounted on artistic backs which add to the beauty of the issue.

What Board Says of Terms Offered by More- head Clty'and Wrlohbwills' What ' Each Plsce Offered to Secure The Annual Visit, of North Carolina Brigades. Special to Journal. Raleigh, Nov. 27 This afternoon the board of officers' report to Gov. Glenn on permanent encampment site was made public by the "Governor. By h's order the selection of the site was left entirely in the hands of the board, which unanimously select. Morehead City. This report gives terms of offer of Morehead City and the Atlantic & N. C. railway combined, and that of Wil mington for Wrighffiville site, and then cays that first "named offer was to give old camp site with two thousand feet frontage oa Boarue sound, with addi tional land adjoining, running two thousand feet back, and a rifle range two hundred by one thousand yards, also adjoining; to build .range and pits, railway sidings, store houses, all other necessary buildings, to clear and grade grounds, set them in grass, furnisn water supply and lights, and to care for all this property when unoccupied. Wrightsville offered 101 -acres with fourteen hundred feet frontage on ;ound, five thousand dollars in cash, and five hundred dollars t nnually for five, years, with no promise tor iuture maintenance of property. Offered rifle range one thousand yards long on Wrightsville banks. Board says that after duly consider ing these proposals, and going over the respective sites, it unanimously selects the site offered at Morehead City. It threw out the idea of having two en campment sites, so that one year two regiments would be at one, and one at the other, nex year this being reversed and third year entire brigado at ore place. Morehead City signified a will ingness, but Wrightsville said its prop osition was based only on encampment of entire brigade annually. The board says farther, that Morehead City offers more frontage on water, in such shape as best to serve the purpose, while site at Wrightsville though contains about same acreage, is in such shape that it is impossible to make it conform to needs. A railway runs through More- head site, while Wrightsville site is a considerable, distance from railway, thus rendering it necessary to use a large number of teams in hauling. Suit water bathing at Morehead Is at or a foot of camp. No cost to men and target range is in camp limits, white suitable range is not offered at Wrights ville in connection with camp site of fered.

It seems that many of the traveling pub lic are placed to some disadvantage at times to' distinguish New Bern from Dover. A few months ago a gentle man got off the cars 'here, and after the train had gone on, enquired the way to the National Bank of New Bern, and was much surprised to being told that it was 24 miles east of here. Last week a gentleman dismounted from the shoo-fly train with his suit case in hand, and being approached by one of our liverymen to know if he want, ed to do some driving, said no, but a minutes pause said he did want to see the manager of the, opera house. He was told. the manager was not in town, Dover not having quite grown suf ficient to afford an opera house. He With some amaze says isn't this New Bern? and upon being told no, fortunate ly for him, the train was waiting for orders being a little later. He says "I guess I had better keep on down some further." Hon. G. V. Richardson went to New Bprn this morning. Dr. Raymond Pollock assisted by his father, Dr. J. A. Pollock from Kinston performed an operation here on a col ored woman a few days ago, and re moved something like a cancer from the inside of her mouth.
