Two Schools of BMofy at Beaa'fort -State TJalversity! fSaansr Schools for Teachers. The State University and Johns Hop kins' University will both run a branch summer school in biology at Beaufort this season. Tbe one in connection with Johns Hopkins bss been opened some weeks. It is in charge of Prof. W. K. Brooks. Such a school was run thereby the same institution, we are informed, four or five yesrr ago. The school in connection with the State University will open to-morrow. It will be in charge of Prof. H. V. Wilson, who has gone down for tbe purpose. Prof. Wilson says that Beaufort is one of tbe best placs on the Atlantic coast and tbe best place north of the Bahamas for such a school, as the nearness of the gulf stream to the town makes it so that very fine specimens arc secured in abun dance. Tbe school is intended for those who make a specialty of biology for specific purposes. This is its first year but it will no doubt be continued. This year the University of North Caro lina offers instruction to teachers in three summer schools: 1. Tho University summer school, in the University buildings, at Chapel Hill, Irjin July 2nd to July 28th. Tuition 5.00; 16 professors; 2(1 courses of In struction. 8. Tbe school of Geology at King's Mountain. Tuition 110.00. Session be gins June 14. 8. The school of Biology at Beaufort. Tuition (10.00. Session begins June 14. For details regarding either of these three, address President Winston, Chapel Hill, N. C. New City Ordinances, Four ordinances have been added by the City Council to those already in ef fect. One, under penalty of (5.00 lor each offence, forbids driving over fire de partment hose while in use at fires or otherwise. One would suppose that there would be no need for such an ordinance, that the common sense of any driver would prevent his committing an act almost sure to result in injury to tbe hose, cost to the city and possibly in rendering the hose immeadiately unfit for service, to the great danger of all property in tbe neighbor hood of tbe conflagatioo, but Mayor Ellis informs us that it has become no infre quent occurence for a vehicle to be driven across the hose at such times hence the necessity for passing the ordinance. Another ordinance requires tho paint ing of every telegraph, telephone or elec tric light pole a uniform color, from the ground up, a distance of fifteen feet. Another ordinance forbids the placing on such poles any advertisement of any kind. The last one requires that no sign shall hang across the side walk, no matter what the height may be unless the sign is over an awning. This is to protect persons from any danger of a sign's falling. The ordinace is not meant to apply to signs placed along the front of buildings or to small signs extending just a little way from the building. I', applies only to those that hang across the sidewalks, as it says. Normal & Industrial Scholarships. Craven county has two scholarships in the State Normal and Industrial College, and one iu the Agriculturalaod Mechan ical College. The latter scholarships will be filled next year by Mr.Cbas. Scott of this city who took high honors there during the scholaristic year just ended his first one in tbe institution. But as Misses Brown and Bagby who had the scholarships during tbe past year at tbe Institute have finished the course at that school, those two vacan cias are to be filled and it will be done by competive examination before Dr. Jno. S. Long, Superintendent of Public In struction. The contest is open not to the city alone but to the county, and it al fords some studious young lady a good opportunity to attend the school at veiy little expense to her. Due notice of the time of holding the examination will be given. The Taaoe Monusseat Faaa Mr. George H.

The Eleventh annutl Mansion ol the North Carolina Teachers Assembly will meet at Morehead next Tuesday 19tu inst. It holds until Monday July 2d two weeks. A very interesting and improv ing programme has been arranged which we will publish at the beginning of the session. From Mr. E. (J. liarrell Secretary of the Assembly and Irom notices in the North Carolina Teacher, and from the number of engancments i li t liave tieeu made at Morel)'' .d, i v 1 mu that every thing indicates a grand sew on of the Amembly, such as will ;ie pleasure and profit to the thoiH.u U of teachers and their friends wbo will gather at Morehead during the next two weeks at this meet ing of the largest State organizatien of teachers in the world. This claim as to size is a fact clearly proven by the official recoids and statistics, surely North Caro Una has ample course to be proud of her great Teachers Assembly. As usual, Messrs. A. Cohn Co., who have fur several years furnished the ele gant pianos and oigans used by the As sembly will do likewise this year. They place the very best instruments there and they hare added greatly to the pleasures of (lie session. It is said that the attendance upon the Assembly this summer will be ol even more practical benefit than heretofore, as each subject to lie discussed has lieen chosen with special reference to its value to the ambitions and progressive teach er. The Assembly TcHchirs' Bureuu will lie a very popular and prominent feature of the work at this session, aud lie very valii'tble both to teacher seeking schools and to school officers desiring teachers. Many applications are on ' file from principals and school officers desiring teachers and assistants for the coming term. This one feature of seaking to provide every teacher with a good school and every school with a good teacher is a very valuable part of the Assembly work. Among the special pleasures of the As sembly are tbe complimentary sail to the Assembly by the boatmen of Morehead and Beaufort on Wednesday afternoon; the inter-collegiate debate, Saturday morn June 83 on the subject: "Resolved that Great Men Make Circumstances, and Cir cumstances do not Make Great Men" This Assembly Gold Medal will be presented to the winner by State Superintendent Scarboro; the instrumental (music contest for the Assembly gold medal which will lie presented to the winner by Gov. Carr, the contest Jukes place Tuesday June 20th and the musical and literary enter tainment by the Assembly Friday June 29th at 8:30 p. m. Go to the Assembly and carry your friends with you, the trip will be full of enjoyment for all. The programme is all that could be desired and nearly every prominent teacher in the State is expect ed to be present. Gill Instead of Dill. Mr. Chas. Fred Hargett gives us the following in relation to Mrs. Elizabeth Bell, the oldest person buried in Cedar Grove cemetery: "Mrs. Elizabeth Bell's daughter Eliza beth, married a Gill instead of Dill, they were tbe parents of John Gill, tbe inven tor ot the famous Colt's revolver and grand-parents of one of our citizens. Mrs. Nannie F. Gill Hargett. Another great- grana-aaughter lives in Wilson or did live there, Mrs. Malvina Rountree. Mr. R. C. Gill of Washington City is her great-grandson. Instead of Mr. Rhem it was Dr. George banders, who was her grand-son fey marriage and whose grave is uear ner's in tue cemetery." Mrs. Sabiston, who furnished the first information published, wrote tbe name Gill, the putting of it Dill was a typo graphical error. RETITALS AT MOREHEAD.

DEPLORABLE WRASULE-HIS W1D On MOTES THE BODY TO THEjt PUCE 8HE BOUGHT FOR IT -HH 80S MOVES IT BACK. Mr. Vance Publishes a eara-Ths Ori ginal Iatlrsteni Was ia the Lot ol His Father's Seleetloa The Senator's Rt quest That) Hit First Wife Should Li st His Side. On Wednesdsy of last week Mrs. Vance widow of the Senator, went to Asbeville and very quietly bad his remains moved from tbe grave in the old Vance lot to the pot she had chosen for the purpose, the uignesi ana aiosi neauiiiui pan oi uie cemeUry, and upon which it is intended for a monument to V auce't memory to stand. But the Senator's sou, Charles N. Vance learned of tbe removal, went to Asbeville Saturday evening and some .time again during that night bad the remains dis-interred and placed in tbe family plat where tbey were nrst buried, beside tbe grave of his first wite, young Vance's mother, where, it is understood, Charlie V auce is determined they shall remain if there be any possible way of inforcing his wisbes. 1 be grave has been guarded by a special officer since Sunday morning. It is said he agreed to the removal of his father's body provided Mrs. Vance would allrw the re-intermeut of the Senator's first wife by his side, but this she would not do. This wrangle as to the permanent rest ing place of the beloved dead is much de plored. MR. VANCK'S CARD. Mr. Vance mive the Citizen the follow ing letter addressed To the 1 ul lic". "My father's request and direction to me whs that his body should be laid to rest in the lot in Asbeville Cemetery, se lected and purchased by himself, and that his first wit, the mother of his children, should be laid by his side. In compliance wild bis expressed wisb lie was placed thereby tbe Senate coirmittee, with the concurrence of the family sud widow. There remained nearly two months when last 1 uosday evening, late, the remains were secretly and surreptitiously taken up and placed in another lot in the cemetery. This was known to be without the knowl edge or consent ot his sons, his only brother and his sisters even ainst their desire. "Within one half mile of the cemetery were one brother and three sisters ot our father, and hsd either of these been con sulted they would have protested against this high-handed act, most certainly against the manner of removal, and es pecially against the opening of the casket, which latter was done, for what purpose we do not know. "This removal might even have been submitted to hnd not the party making the removal, in writing, as a last and final ultimatum on the subject, refused to al low tbe wife ot his early manhood, our mother, to be placed by his side. "ttus violation ot sacred obligation was to me so revolting that I felt that it was mv iniDerative dutv to the memnrv of my dead father to replace the remains in tbe original place. This has been done and I trust and pray that they may re main in peace, sad as has been this duty it was rendered necessary by the promise I repeatedly made my father. It is also humiliating that all thie has occurred and this publication made necessary, but l see no escape irom it. We appeal to tbe sentiment of the good people of this com munity and ot the state of .North Caro lina to sustain us In our efforts to secure the permanent and peaceful repose of this good man, our fit tier, in the spot of his own selection and choice, and where he was placed by his colleagues of the United States Senate with the full con sent of the family and widow and where may rest by his side the mother of his children. "Very respectfully, "Charles N. Vahce." WITH THE FARMERS Potatoes are Paying and Regular Field Crops are Coming on Well. Mr. John Humphrey, of Clark's speaks well of the condition of all crops around his neighborhood except Irish potatoes the yield of which was diminished some what by the March cold snap and tbe dry spell, but there is very little com plaining on that account tbe prices have ruled so good and continue to do so that the farmers are very well satisfied. It is not the first time that a short crop has paid them well. Mr. Humphrey says tbe cotton, corn, sweet potatoes, and other field crops though mostly a little late are coming on well. The cotton that in spite of the droughth came np earliest is that which was planted on the best land and it is now fine and what came uo late is coming on well also. Taking it all in all he does not consider, that thereto any reason from what is past to look for anything less than the usual yield. A correspondent at Cove writes us as follows concerning the crops of that place: ''Some of our truckers are offering II.- 00 per day for bands to pick up potatoes. Such prices do not only attract tbe atten tion ot the colored Dooulation but most of the white people are taking advan tage ot me prices. With fkvorable weather the potatoes mi xu go on by tbe loth that is around here. Prices have been verv satisfactorv so far, and how it makes us smile to hear our names called by the Postmaster when tbe mall gets la.

The HstUras Llrht Hesse Secretary Heka Saltk Pleased With His North Carolina Trlp-Freaeh Spoliation Claims. The readers of this paper will recall tlie fact that Senator Ransom secured an appropriation of t5tl,(H for building a ligbt bouae on Diamond Shoals, off the rocky and terrible tape Hatteras. Not only is North Carolina, but the civilized nations of the world are interested in this great enterprise. It will be alode an n during monument to Senator Itansom's enterprise, foresight, sagacity and tre mendous influence here. The light house board has lavorahle reports from the engineers who are build ing tliis great light house. They have at last louiiil a solid foundation and the work will be completed as rapidly as posiible. When it is done, storm tossed IlaUenm will hu roblxtl of lull! iu terrors. This light will shine far out over the ocean warning the distant mariner of the hidden rocks that rear their treacherous fronts along tbe ocean. It will be one of the most magnificent structures of the kind in the world. Its electric ligbt will be modeled in accordance with the latest inventions iu that subtle and marvelous force which is fast becoming the motive power of tbe nineteenth century. All that advanced science lias discovered, will be utilized in making North Carolina's mighty beacon a brilliant success. Through the ageucy of the half million, Senator Ransom has secured lor this pur pose an me mil oi uie wizard ol Memo Park as well as that of tbe most accom plished engineers which will be combined for tbe promotion of the commerce ot North Carolina. The vessels of the mari time world can sail lor her ports, knowing full well that the dangerous reel's are to them no longer terra incognito that a gleaming Rash ot light stands an everlast ing sentinel over ita raging surges to warn them as to their course. It is commendable to give good places to such ot North Carolina's sons ns Pen dleton King. W. P. Holierls, W. M. Robbing, T. .). .Krnigan, F. M. Simmons, Melville Carter, Holiert (Jlenn, ('. IS.

The HatUras light house will send its electric rays like a perpetual benison over the surface ol tbe ocean, ulmost as far as its waves beat upon the coast of the Slate. Secretary and Mrs. Hoke Smith have returned from Chapel Hill. The Secre tary is almost as much pleased with his reception in Ins native Male as her people seemed to have lieen with him. Mrs. Cleveland and the babies are at Gray Gables for the summer. Mr. Bunn lias rertortad favorably a French Spoliation Claim bill which if it passes both houses ot Congress will re sult in giving a good pile of money to a number ol North Carolina claimants. I expect my old friend, Josephus Dan iels is at the bottom of tbe following judi cious ruling: "It has been determined that all employees in the Interior Depart ment will hereafter be subject to a close inspection by the hands of tbe various bureaus as to their attendance, habits. and effective industry. If they fall below a certain percentage they wiil be subject to a lower grade. Any absence on the part of employees without permission of the chief of the division in which thoy are employed will not only be deducted Irom the annual leave, but will also lie marked against the clerk. Under the caption "effective industry" is included general ability, accuracy, adaptability. directive power, rapidty, system and ver satility. A Valuable Town Lot and Silverware For Sale.
