He says also that in making the exami nation ot teachers, he includes examina tion along this line. Naval Reserve Concert, Mr. C. L. Gaskill is working up a min strel company with nearly a score ot members to give an entertainment for the benefit of the Naval Reserves, to aid towards the purchase of dress uniforms. Nearly all composing the company arc members ol the Naval Reserve a tew are outsiders amoDg them are some very good men for the business and some good voices. The proposal is to use Shakespearian costumes with the end men as regular court jesters a variation that will no doubt add zest to the pleasure. Messrs. Daniels and McSorley will have charge of the gymnastic part of the entertainment and they intend to work up something very good. The entertainment is planned to come off the first part of November, and it is expected that a trip will be taken to Wil mington to render it there also. The Edenton Fair, The premium list of the Edenton Fair is before us. It is an attractive pamphlet of 84 pages. The fair will be held Oct. 18th, 17th, 18, and 19th. The premiums are comprehensive, em bracing just about everything in the way of Field, Garden and Orchard products of the season, live stock, poultry, pantry supplies, ladies work, fine arts, manufac tures, fishing material, &c There will also be racis every day, twelve triuls ot spei'M lu all, tor purses ranging from $30 to $200. Cheap transporlationhas been arranged for. There is good reason to hope for a good attendance and an enjoyable fair. We hope it will be a success in every way. , Changes in the Steamer Lines, The new arrangement underjwhich the Eastern Carolina. Dispatch and the Old Dominion Steamship company's lines are to continue their business here goes into effect the first of October. The business will be run as two lines nnder one agency Mr. Geo.

D. line there will b6no changes in the forte, every employee will be retained. ; There will be some addition to this force, hut how - much is not now known the details have not been perfect ed yet, - . The frequency of the runs has not yet been settled hut will by tho first of the month, butjwill be adequate; when needed a daily trip will be made. All the boats - will run' to Elizabeth City and there conuect with the Norfolk and Sbuthorn'railroad for. NorfolK.. At Elizabeth City, as well as New Berne, the business is transacted under- one agency; at Norfolk the two lines diverge. ' The new arrangements will ensure a saving to each line at both ends. ' r ' ' -r- ; ' Mr, Henderson has been the agent at this point for the E. O, D. line every since it was established, -eight years ago. Its success during that time has proven hii ability in the transportation business.:" " The added responsibility is quite a com. pliment to efficiency and fuithfuluess. That he is equal - to the demands, every one who knows hint is perfectly satisfied of; y Good service is assured. ; Excursion to Wilmington. An excursion will leave for Wihning- lon over the W.

And a Druggist War In Goldgboro ' Urowing Out Of It. A Raleigh correspondent of the Char lotte Observer tells about some trouble among .Goldsboro druggists arising from the enforcement of what we believe arc features of the law relating to their busi ness which are but little known We copy the item: "Sheriff Grant, of Wavne, was here to day, -and from him a lively story was picked up. There is a "drug'wai" at Goldsboro. 1 lie druggists, it seems, are angry with a prominent physician, who is also a druggist, and U19 hitter is angry with the sheriff, who is uVins, to do his duty and keep ,..o.i side of all parties concerned m lue cm iire.l. "In 1891 the Legislature pu.-sud an act that no one save a resrislon a pharmacist could fi'l priscrip :ialess supervised and that no druggist could leave his store in charge of any one save a registered pharmacist. The law also says that not even a duly registered druggist fan either fill or refill any prescription without the ordef of a physician. . "'Ever since its passaus the law lias, it appears, been practically a dead letter, and t few people knew of its existence. The Goldsbor.i doctor-drusgist knew of it however, and saw in it a wny to make a bis I'liiiness ''scoop.'' As it happened all uis i-lerks are registered pharmacists, lie went to the sheriff and demanded that the latter enforce the law. The theriff was bound to comply. The matter was investigated and it was found that all the drug stores save that of the shrewd doc tor drusrgist had been violating the law. As a consequence some deserving young men were thrown out ot employment, and two drug stores w6ro compelled to close. "Since that time things have been wax ing warm. The druggists threatens the doctor, ui'.d he in turn threaten the sheriff for tellinc them who started the affair. At tha last, term of court he had Sheriff Grant indicted for neulect of duty but the sheriff was acquitted."

At o:lU the track was put in shape and Mr. Williams announced the special event of tho day the attempt of Alix to beat the world's record of 2:04.

The Tillmanite Democrats of South Carolina met in convention at Columbia on the 28th and nominated John Gray Evans for Governor and W. II. Trimme man for Lieut. Governor. Over 300 dele gates were present; all were Tillraanites except the delegation from Charleston they were conservatives. TheCharleston delegation tried hard to get the convention to come out squarely on the Democratic platform and denounce Populism, but their efforts were defeated by an overwhelming vote. The platlorm indorses tue ucaia plat form, as well as die (Jhicago platlorm. de mands the free ooinane of silver at a ratio of 16 to 1, and indorses tho dispen sary law as the best solution ot tue liquor question. The argument in favor of choosing our senators irom the eastern and western sections of the State is an. unnatural and demoralizing one. It is a specious theory, based upon false promises, and is capable of being so perverted as to become inimi- oal to that wide liberty for which Demo cracy stands, such a theory or senator ial , representation proceeds upon the assumption that geographical limitations must be placed upon intelligence, culture, virtue, patriotism, party service ana poll tical availibility in choosing a candidate Such a system of reasoning is pernicious in the extreme, is capable ot great abuses and 's susceptible of incalculable injury to ' the' party. It is a vicious do:trine which interferes with the party's freedom of action and limits' its choice to a com paratively narrow sphere. , The restrlo tions it Imposes upon a Legislative body confines its selections to two necessarily extreme, remote anew circumscribed sec- tie as of the State without reference to the interests to be represented or the gen eral fitness of the candidates concerned It ! is through a sectional favoritism like this that en office-holding caste is estab lished and the cry comes that Senators are too far away from the people. Fixing sucn a precedent naturally leaas up w the abuses which have made the present method of electing Senators universally unpopular. , If the , Governor or other State ' officer ; cin come from- the middle section there is no reason Why a Senator cannot also.

While the Duke and Duchess of Con naught were inspecting the performance of a military balloon at Aldershot on Sept. 15, thelballoon was struck by light ming, which followed the anchor wire to the earth and seriously injured three men who were holding the wire.

They were released from their predicament and taken to the hospital, not mortally hurt.
