HARPER, C T HANCOCK, - Proprietor. Local Roportor. EiUerrd at the PosinMac at yew Bern C., as secvwldtus nuttier. Thb Sultan of Turkey has attached to his bodyguard a soldier who is 11C years old. Qceen Christiana of Spain, hears operas in hor private rcom by means of the telephone. A Salt Lake City editor, -who Is blind, is to have his eyes replaced by those of a rabbit. There is a bill now pending to aW. ish the last and only turnpike toll load in the State of Connecticut. A mode of making pepsin from tho common pineapple, so strong that the essence of one pineapple will digest ten ponnds of beef, has been discovered by a Detroit physician. Berlin gets her winter cauliflowers from Italy and Holland, new potatoes from Malta, beans from North Italy, pickles from Holland, o-'ionsfrom Rus sia, Hungary, an.l Egypt. Gov. Nichols, of Louisiana, is minus a leg. an arm, and nn eye, but is still accounted not only a good man, but one of the smartest Governors in the whole South. He complains less than some men who havo only dropped an ear. A French paper warns tho people of that country who may visit Ameiica that ""many ferocious lions and hyenas have appeared near Fargo, and people walking out to see the Mammoth Cave shonld by all means go armed and prepared. " Among the assets of a traveling salesman who died in Cincinnati the other day were no less than seventeen different forts of liver invigorators. He had taken only about half a bottle of each one. His death was caused by a liver trouble. There are still several tribes of Indians iu Mexico which believe in witchcraft, and the other week a woman was killed because it was con tended that she drove the sun over into the United Statei and rilled up the space with rain. A Philadelphia surgeon says that by three strokes of the lancet he could paralyze the nerves acted on to make a man get mad, and thereafter any one could pull his nose, cuff his ears and spit on his boots and he would simply smile a soft, bland sraile. Only about one factory out of sevmi in this country is properly fire-escaped or equipped with apparatus to quench an incipient conflagration. The rest of them simply take chances that nothing will happen, or if a fire occurs that tho employes will get out some way. Elmer Yorxfi, an Oswego man, felt funnj the other morning, and he said to Mrs. White, who was going to the grocery, "Trot along after your coal oil, sissy." She had him arrested, and the court decided that "sissy" was slander and gave her a verdict for $50. A preach ee at Kinderhook, N. Y. has been in the habit of saying "Gosh hang it!" and "By gum!" but his case hau been investigated, and it has been decided that he must quit right off, and not even exclaim "Oh, sugar!" when he steps into a post-hole full of water. Only one letter out of every 750,000 properly stamped and posted fails to reach ks destination by the first regu lar mail, and east of the Rocky Moun tains only one letter in 1,550,000 is lost in transit and never heard of. These figures do not include stolen letters, of course. No matter v hat other astronomers declare, those of Switzerland persist - that tho sun is only 78,000,000 miles from the earth. They set that figure forty years ago, and stick to it in their school books and geographies. Fifteen million miles isn't worth quarreling "Anna Dickinson is in such poor health that she will never be heard , in pnblio again Her friends say she "of twenty; but, like many another 7- woman, she wanted to bo "independ ' ent," and has never taken any real comfort in her life. , ' A School is to be oponed in New t York toinstrnot people how to carry an umbrella so as to protect tho tons ' -and coat tails at Ihs same time.

Tsa Spanish Government ha . offerwd two priiM for tho ns&del of a monument to comnetnoraU tho discovery of Amen- j ca, The first prize i 5,000 franca, tho second oao 1,000. Both native and foreign sculptors are allowed to compete for the work. Model are to be sent to the Academy San Fernando, in Madrid, within one year. Osk hundred million of dollar in vested in truck firming yields, from 535,000 acres of land, nearly 177,000,000 woith of production, giving constant occupation to 310,000 men, women and children and 70,000 hones and mules. Truck farms, a a rule, are on land far removed from markets, and this marvel ous advance in capital investment and peoplo employed is due entirely to the contemporaneous extension ot railroad facilities It may encourage the humble maiden of limited resources and busy life to know thut during the lite of the Danish King's daughters the royal sire was comparatively poor, and consequently the two most popular and powerlul women of Europe, the Princess Alessan dra of Wales aud the Czarina Dsgruar of Russia, used to trim their own boo nets, ' fashion their own gowns, and do up their own laces, besides looking after several other things not nearly so easy of accomplishment. At church, the theatre, and other as- i semblies the Japanese take oil their shoes. "At the large theatre in Trukiji, Tokio," says a correspondent, "the rush for shoes is sometimes tremendous. Im agine 2,000 people after a niiuinee crowd ing and elbowiug and pushing to get at their shoes, so as uot lo be late for their supper! Further, imagine what anxie ties and distress of niiud the ntteudauts must undergo who have in charge the task of getting the multitude prop erly shod. The tamous problem pro pounded by Car vie in tho opening chapter of 'Past and Pre-eut' of 'getting the thousands of shirts on the thousands of backs' doesn't offer more difficulties." William 11. Kideinc (who has all his life been familiar with ste;Aihip affairs) gives in Scribucr a clear account of tho ingenious precautions and devices which have made ocean travel oue of the safest methods of locomotion. lie priuts the following remarkable record for lX'JU: "Nearly two thousand trips we'C made from New York alone to various Europ ean ports; about two hundred thousand cabin passengers were carried to and fro, in addition to nearly three hundred and seventy-two thousand immigrants who were landed at Castle Garden. Th's euormous traffic was conducted without accident, and no more comforting assur ance can be given than this of safety on the Atlantic." Tiikkk is no sweeter charity in all England than the Robins' Treat, which a Mrs. Louisa Rirt, of Liverpool, pro vides semi-auuually for r,000 of the poor est little children she can tind. A month in advance of the Treat agents are scut into all the dark courts, allevwavs and back streets of Liverpool with invita tions for the Robins. Absolutely no questions are asked, the messenger s-c-iug with half au eye whether the dwell ers deserve cards or not. At the last Treat, served New Year's Eve, the Fi nance Committee placed St. George's Hall at the disposal of Mrs. liirt and her .-,00() Robins. The treat was all that could have been desired, and not one birdling was permitted to escape until he was too jolly full to eat another crumb. Says a Nebraska hect-sugar man : "Here is a prediction that will startle you, but it will be fulfilled in every particular. Within one decade the States west, of Ohio will produce enough beet-sugar to supply the entire demand of the country, aud that notwithstanding the alleged cheapness of the cane product. I he home-made and hoim-grown product will supplant the foreign article. Illi nois, Nebraska and California have the best soil for the growth ol sugar-produ ing beets. Capitalists h:ive great confi dence iu the future of this industry and are iuvesting large sums in it. I have just completed two refineries one at i Grand Island, Neb., and the other at Pomona, Cal. the cost of each being 11(10,000. We shall begin work o:i an other plant at Norfolk, Neb., next month." ; The ccm-us shows '.hat there are twenty- i ; eight cities in the L nitcu Mates with a population of 100,000 or more. It also ' shows that Texas, the largest State in the , Union, has not a single city of the first or 100,000 class. According to the cen ! sus the largest city in Texas is Dallas, whose population is :!8, 000. Next comes I Sau Antonio, with 37,000, while Ualvcs i ton id third with 2'J, 000. Rut the census shows that Texas, in the percentage of I its increase in the population of its cities, surpasses all rivals. Prom 1880 to 18'JO the ten leading cities of that State had nn increase in population ranging from 30 per cent, to 1,:J00 per cent, the l'or m ' Galveston, the latter El Paso. Fort 1 V th shows nu inn case of 240 per cent. ; Dallas, 207 per cent., and Laredo, 221 per cent. At this rate of progresi the next census will show nothing in Texas excepting cities of over 100,030 popu- lation. j Dn. Will R. Leu, of Springfield, Ohio, who has been appointed royal I physician to the King of Siam, is only twenty-eight years of ngc. Only four 1 years ago he was driving nn express : wagon and delivering express packages in Springfield. He was youthful, of handsome appearance, oi line physique, rare intelligence aud was always reive in church work. His friends raised a fund of over $1,000 to assist Mr. Lee in taking a course at the University of New York to fit himself tor a medical mission ary. He was graduated with high hon ors in the class of 1800, and after his marriage with a young Canadian lady, who had also studied to become a medi cal missionary, ho was assigned by tho Prosbyterian Board of Foreign Missions to a station at Petchaburee, Siam. Ho entered into the work there with a will, and tho stories of the ustounding cures of the young Yankee physician soon idled the sleepy Oriental land with won acr. What it took the native physician nvs weeks to cure with their pagan tom foolery young Lee would cure in live iyi. Ho had only worked six months at Petchnbureo when the fame of his wonderful cures spread to Bankok and reached the ears of the Siamese Govern mem, aQRHaTBABSAINI 327 ACRES WILL SOLD AT A GREAT SACRIFICE!

'HE washer- women of Paiis form a rich and powerful cor poration, and oDceayearthey enjoy a splen did frolic. Long before the day of Mi-Ca-reme dawns, they have held their elections, arranged their order of proces sion, and de cided where they will hold the ir evening revel. In each quarter of Paris there is a "lavoir," or public wash-house, and along the River Seine there are also many others. In these thirty or forty establishments there are always many robust types of feminine beauty, and a woman who wishes to become the talk of the town can do it most effectually by getting the nomi nation of "Queen of the Washer women" for the season. The pageant generally represents a strange mixture of pagan mythology aud mediieval splendor. There are 83,000 women in the cor poration of washerwomen. So it is no light honor to be chosen their queen, and to have absolute power over them, if only for one day. Mile. Siccard, thit year's queen, is a splendid brunette, 2G years old, with a profile worthy an antique statue of Venus and a bust of almost as heroio size as that of the great statue of the Republic, near which she was crowned queen the other dav. She was the unanimous choice of the women in all the Paris lavoir. In the procession she rode in a great coach garnished from top to bottom with camellias and draned with red velvet sown with golden stars. The coach was drawn by four magnificent white horses. Crowned with a golden diadem, dressed in a cream-colored satin gown with golden embroideries, the beauti ful blanchissense perhaps fancied, as she rode enthroned on her coach past the hundreds of thousands of laughing Parisians, that she was indeed a queen. But that did not hinder her from taking her usual place next morning in the wash-house and attending to Iter business as usual. Art Nut.
