Let every man arouse himself and work diligently in its behalf. The time is drawing very nigh and it is time to be moving in earnest in the matter of special preparations. Institute Tennis Court. The most fascinating of all the pleas ures of the Institute boys and girls is tennis. It Is a game in whioh the aim is to keep a tennis ball in motion within certain defined lines of the court by means of a racket. The exercise thus given the pupil is light and calls into play the organs of the body. The beauty of the game is activity, and well-played is scientific Old as well as young may enjoy the enthusiasm such diversion affords the mind. Surely the student must be provided with some satisfying reoreation after school hours that is not exoeeaive ia its nature and presents an opportunity for pleasant and profitable sooial intercourse. Prof. Thomas has just had completed a handsome tennis oourt on the play grounds of the Collegiate Institute. He haa ever had the best interests of the Institute pupils at heart and devoted much energy and consideration to their welfare by getting up pleasant rides, walks, sooial gatherings and other inno oent and pleasant pastimes. Is Peg Lee; at Work t Exohanges are giving items to the effect that Stephen Daniel, a colored excursion manager of Goldsboro will run three separate excuriion trains immediately after Christmas carrying oolored turpentine and plantation hands from this State across the South Caro lina line, for Georgia and South Caro lina contractors, the object being to outwit the law whioh makes it a mis demeanor for agents to oarry laborers out of the State without paying a lioense of $1,060 for each oounty operated in. The statement is made that "Peg Leg" Williams and several other labor agents are engineering the scheme and that every negro who will agree to cross the State line will be given free transportation and for every one thus smuggled over, Stephen Daniel is to receive a bonus of $2.50. It is further stated that one of the trains is to be run from Morehead City. We know nothing of what may have been done on other roads, but no ar rangements have been made for suoh a train as the one spoken of to be run over the A. & N. C. B. B. Mr. S. L. Dill, Superintendent of the road in forms ns that its authorities have not been approached on the matter in any way by the alleged exoursion runner Stephen Daniel, any agent of his or by the authorities of any other railroad.

Morton, one of the most prominent citizens of Harlowe, died at his home, on Wednesday the 16th inst., of typhoid-pneumonia. Mr. Morton war a fair-dealing, accu rate and enterprising business man, and as farmer, country merohant and mill proprietor -he was a very useful man and one of -the pillars of the com munity, and he was withal a oourteous, kind-hearted and -generous old gentle man, obliging to all and ready at all time to do a neighborly kindness. He will be greatly missed. Unprecented Success. Profitable fishing along the whole Carolino coast this season has never been excelled. The number caught has been startling.' We have been told of the enormous quantities caught at Morehead and Boanoke. The Elizabeth City Carolinean says the number of blue fish caught about there was never so large before. Tremendous quantities are being brought to that city and shipped every day. Over twenty ear loads of the fresh fish went off in one day and still they go 1 Was the like ever heard of anywhere before ? Mr. J. A. Paris who has just returned from a business trip in Onslow county tells of the remarkable success the fishermen there are meeting with. He met carts travelling in every direction selling the fish, besides those that are shipped by rail. The run at this time consists mainly of elegant speckled trout, but nice mullets are also being oaught. In one instance a single haul with one of the nets in New River, which con sumed about 20 minutes time, resulted in securing 190 large trout. Sometimes the nets would be so full as to be un manageable and it would be impossible to prevent the fish from making their esospe. Those not informed might think from their abundance that the fish are not fine, but the reverse is the oase. No one need wish to taste better. Mr. Paris knew of one party of eight who made thirty dollars each in one day in catching fish. Where oan labor expect a better remuneration than that. The sucoees attending this industry in Carolina waters is marvellous. Died, At her residence in this Deo. 20. Mrs. Jnlm Hmith in th r.a.h year of her age.
