Mr. Daves Henderson of Stump sound who was so badly injured by stopping from a moving train at Jacksonville a few days ago is worse and the chances are against his recovery. There will lie a colored excursion to Morehead Thursday from New 'Berne, ttnd one next Sunday (roin Goldsboro to Camp Vanco where a camp meeting will then bo in progress. Senator Jarvis and wife passed through last night to s;nnd a short time at More head; his public duties having kept him at Washington during the Morehead sea son. Congress adjourns Tuesday. llov. G.

The patent for tho muttrcss machine which wo noticed a few days ago was granted on the 84th. ,Mr. E. T. fGaskill is tho inventor of the machine, and he and Mr. F. T. Patterson are the joint . owners. A proper quantity of paint, judiciously applied will do more toward improving your properly in proportion to its cost than anything else. It is the very best thing known fir tho protection of wood and iron. It is tnat which adds beauty to cverytning. It is a mistake to suppose that only farmers are concerned in good roads.

Our . eastern people will be-glad to hear of this Appointment. ' .' ' " ' An Alligator Attacks Two Boys. Alligators rtally seem to be getting more abundant and bold in this vicinity than ever before. Mr. J. D. Ilensley's little boy, David, and a companion, Hardy Priest, son of Mr. Stephen Priest, narrowly escaped falling victim to a large one in Haywood's creek, where they were hunting summer duck in a small boat. They noticed the alligator making for them when he had got to clow quarters; getting closo lo tho boat ho opened his mouth and wheeled around with elevated tail his evident intention being not to hit Uio boat but to knock one of the little follows out. Witli a paddle they shoved the boat out of tho way just in time to entirely escape the blow. The alligator made for them again but they rowed on and lett him. This creek is the same one in which the live eleven foot alligator that Mr. llen- sley has on exhibition was raptured by fishermen in a net a few n oiiths liack. Mr. Itjnsley proposes in company wioh sonic one else to soon ;;o hunting for this last alligator. Coming and Going. Mr. Sol. Cohen loft for New York after his tall stock. Mr. A.

Hughes of Philadel phia, has accepted the position of in structor of ancient and modern languages in Now Borne Collegiate Institute. He was graduated from Ilavcrfortl Collogo. (June, 1894.) with th:; decree of A. B. Before entering college, he was gj'aduatid from the Philadelphia High School, which has ae ihgiato standing, with the degree of A. B. mi l lately tho degree of A. M. wa conferred on him by the same instituiioii. Ho also spent a year at a boarding school (St. Luke's Academy.) During the past two years of his college lilc (Sonior and Junior years) ho devoted his time almost exclusively to two sub jects, Latin and Greek, 10 out of every 15 required hours ol work lioing given up to them. The first two ami a half years of his college life were spent at Lehigh Univer sity wlioro be received a good training in mathematics and modern languages as well as in the classics. Ho nlietward went to Haverford in response to the offer of a scholarship by the president, Isaac Sharpless. At that tiuio ho decided to Uach Latin and Greek on graduation and accordingly specialized to that effoct. He is also familiar with the use of tho type-writer, knows how to keep books, and has a very good knowledge of music. His course in collogo has been very ex tensive and he is a thorough scholar. President Sharpless says: "James Ed ward Hughes is graduated this year from Haverford College. "Ho entered here as a Junior from Lehigh University and has. done good work mainly in classics. He is a young man of good character and habits." Prof. Gifford of the same institution says: '-This certifies that Mr. James E. Hughes has been under my instruction in Grreek for the last year and a half of his college course. "The work done during this time has been chiefly on Plato and Greek Tragedy. "II gives me pleasure to testify to his general good scholarship in this subject'' ' Miss Susan Dillingham is also added to the faculty. Her qualifications are too well known in New Berne to detaiiize. She holds a diploma from a High School in Lowell, Mass; . . . Tbo forty-second annual meeting of the Artiertcan nianicaeutical Association will meet in the Bittery Park Hotel, Asheville, N. C.from Monday, Sept, 8rd, to 18th.

An Irou Fence Needed A general renovating and some .slight repair work is going on at the Collegiate Institute building preparatory to opening the school next week. We believe the Trustees intend in some way improving the enclosure, either with a neat curbing or iron fence. The latter improvement should lie made immediately. It has already too long been an eje-.-ore 10 have rotten posts aud broken wire strung along the sidewalk to gr.ee an in-iiuition of learning, situat ed in the nci v heart of the city, and where trains daily puss, and the travelling public brought face to face with so un sightly and uninviting surroundings. A good substantial iron fence is most needed. It will cost considerable to lirst place it there, but it would be permanent and lasting, and always look well. Again it would put a cessation to persons tramp ing through the grounds and cutluig it up into paths,thus marring the only pub lic lawn within the limits of the city. It is with more than passing regret that we cannot point with pride to our leading educational institution. It can not be classed as iu keeping with the progress and advancement of New Bemc, and her rofinod and cultured people. Prof. Mon dcnhall the new Principal, has come among us highly endorsed, and he has mado a good impression during the short time he has been here, but his efforts will l c in vain, if he does not meet with the hearty co-operation of our citizens, and especially the trustcos of the school. Wo see no reason why Xcw Borne should not have as good a school as there is in Eastern North Carolina, or even the State, if the proper zeal was put forth. A little shaking up is badly needed. Country Revivals. Rov. Mr. Moore, of Beaufort, who has been assisting Rov. C. S. Burgess, Baptist pastor at Vandemcre in ft protracted meeting in that church returned home Friday. The meeting resulted in twelve additions to tho church. Rev. H. Winflcld, of tho Church of Christ with tho assistance of his sou Mr. Jas. Winfield has been conducting pro tracted meetings at Baycreek, Pamlico county, and Truitt's new church, Craven county. The former resulted in six and the latter in three additions, to tho church. Rev, Mr. Wiufield has now gono down to Live Oak Grov and North River churches, Carteret county. nev. W. W. Lewis, from near tlaiiowe and Elder V. G. Britton of Pollocksvillo, passed through yesterday morning en route to Antioch church near Swift creek where Mr. Lewis assisted by Mr. Britton will conduct a week's meeting. Mr. Lewis held his last protracted meeting at Rivordale; it resulted in ten additions to the church, seven of the number bojng baptized at the time. Mr. fecwis will conduct one service in the New Berne Berne Free Will Baptist church on tho night of the second Sunday in September, and will then hold a pro tracted meeting at Trent church, Pamlico county, commencing the following Wed nesday night.

OAKES POULTRY FARM The Coming Poultry Establishment of the South. A visit to any one of the Poultry farms around-New Berne is an interesting event and not the least so is one to the fine ones 'Oaks Poultry Farm'' recently establish ed by the experienced fanciers, Messrs. John Ellis & L. S. Wood, which occupies a portion of the far-famed stock and truck farm of Messrs. Hackbuni & Willett 'The Oaks" from which the enterprise takes its name. The enterprise was established only this spring and its arrangements arc as yet out fairly started yet sufficient pro gross has been made to .-.how that it is destined to be another progressive outer prise of which New Berne will have just ause to ho proud. As our readers know the business was started too late this spring to get lYirly into it then, but li")i) chickens were hatched out. The birds arc now thriving finely and will afford a good nucleus for the nextjseiison's operations. Eighteen varieties of high vhiss thor oiiuhbii'd chickens arc being bred. They are- ( ueluns hull, white, black and i.irlrid'ce; Wyandotte -golden-laced and silver-'aeed: Plymouth rocks barred aud white: Hmhmas light and dark; Miuor cas blael. and white; brown Leghorns, Indian games, black Spanish and Holid ays, it is a splendid assortment ot varie ties and the farm will in a few months more be almost a Poultry show hi itselt. it is the intention ot the proprietors to make it the 2hirLi-.it and most complete poultry establishment in the South, and in this clien t they have tho good-will of the entire eommunitv for success. One hundred acres will, as required be devoted to the poultry, fifteen acres are now taken up in buldlng.s and yards. The buildings embrace tho keepers resi dence, an orliee apart from the residence. the incut ator quarters in which three in cubators of 200 eggs capacity each will be run next season, a building not yet erected but which soon will be for the chicks during the first wick or two of their lives (It will be sufficient for 1200 el' them at a time) the regular chicken houses of commodious size and each divided into three apartments with each apartment openin r info it own yard. A good number ot the buildings are already completed and others are to be erected at once. Every variety will have its yard where the finest birds will be raised to sell for breeding purposes all over the country and in addition to raising these breeding birds for fanciers, very large flocks of Brown Leghorn and Minoreas will he kept with unlimited range exclusive ly for eggs for market. Collegiate Institute Prizes. This school offers three prizes this year. One to that pupil who shall attain to the highest average grades on recila tion and examination timing the scholas tic year.

Another to the pupil who makes the greatest progress 111 Elocution ami Rec itation during tho year ami on tho Com mencement. No pupil can competo for these prizes unless in school the first week and who shall be in school the entiro scholastic year also must sustain a good report. E. P. MlSNnENHALIi.

Lewis went to New Rcrno to be examined for service in the Life Saving Station at Cape Lookout. Tho crew is examined yearly. The station opens earlior this year and the crew will be put on for ten months instead of eight as formerly. The bill passed making this a law iJ certainly a wise one. The sal iry of each member of the grew is reduced from 05 to $60 per month. Beaufort Herald. A tale of almost incredible barbarity and cannibalism cornea from Bolivia. Indians of Carangas committed a double murder by killing a magistrate, Scuor Arco and his son who was with him. Thoy took tho life of tho son first. In the presence of the father they clipped out his tongue, extracted his eyes, and other wise tortured him until he was dead. As the blood flowed from the body they caught it in horn cups and drank it. with avidity. They then put the father to death in a like horriblo manner. A car nival of cannibalism was then held over the bodies until tho tlesh was eaten to the bones. This act of such inhuman barbar ity occurring within the region of civil ization is awful. Notice.
