STRANGE CoNDUCT ON TILE PART OF AN
EDGECoMBE DEPUTY SHERIFF.--Thc Colds
boro Messenger thus notices the conduct
Of one Of our Edgecombe officials:
The negro Hurley, who effected. or
was allowed, his escape from the Edge
combe county escort having him in charge,
while on roujc to the pGnitcntiary, we
learn, was seen III GGld&bOro on Saturday
last and was afterwards seen in. the neigh
borhood of Dudley. The Deputy Sheriff
and guard had just returned from Raleigh
and were in town at the time the news
was brought here that Hurley was last
seen near Dudley, but strange, they acted
very indifferently in the matter and made
no attempts whatever to overtake the fu-
gitivc."

BACKING DoWN.-From indications that
have leaked cut during the past few weeks,
We should judge tat the RAIDS of this town
are getting pretty badly scared.
At the last town election they were
naughty, defiant and opposed to any com
promises. Now they appear humble, pen
itent, and both willing and anxious to
"c0mp,' as evidenced by the ticket they
had secretly prepared in case an election
wts5 held on 1st January.
1t wont do, gentlemen. You must
show more real contrition for Your many
deeds of plumber and rascality, before YOU
Can be allowed to politically mix again with

How A Boy WAKES Up.-There he
lies In his crib, nut~brown cub OF four
years. He sleeps the sleep of healthy
childhood. In the same position he lay
when he dropped into unconsciousness,
one arm under his head, one leg kicked
out from under the coverlet lie is per-
fectly motionlcss. His round cheek
pillows itself on the extended arm, and
his leg seems to have been arrested in
the middle of the last restless kick, as
the curtain fell over his blue eyes, and he
was fast asleep. You can scarcely per-
ceive his regular res, s,iration. A train
of cars thunder by without noise--he
might be carried across the street without
awakening. It is morning; daylight
streams into the windows the sun shines
on the hill-tops. The sounds of stirring
life are beginning to be heard about the
house Watch the boy. Still and mo-
tionless as figure of marble. As you
look, the gates of sleep are suddenly un-
locked. He is awake in a twinkling-
awake all over. His blue eyes are wide
open and bright-his lips part with a
shout-his legs fly out in different direc-
tions-his arms are in rapid motion-he

be has turned a couple of somersaults,
and presents before you living illustra-
ton of perpetual motion. There is no
deliberate yawning, no slow stretching Of
indolent limbs, no lazy rubbing of sleepy
eyes, no gradual becoming awake about
it. With a snap like pistol shot he is
thoroughly awake and kicking
awake to the top end Of each particular
hair. The wonderful thing about it is its
suddenness and completeness.
The Scientific AMERICAN gives an ac-
count of a family of gigantic Turks. The
father and mother live near Damascus,
30 and 81 years old, and weigh respec.
lively $40 and $50 pounds. They have
ten sons and Eve daughters, all living.
The oldest weighs 630 and the youngest,
who lives in Illinois, $50 and. none Of
them weigh less than 500 pounds, nor
under seven feet high-the Sucker, the
youngest, being feet inches. They
arc all we'll proportioned.

DIED OF A FRYING PAN.-"Died Of a
frying pan,' is the epithet which the
Columbus, Ga, Enquirer says appropri-
ately belongs to the grave yards of thous-
ands of Southern people, on account of
the manner of preparing food in that
part Of the country. The editor says of
the Southern man:
His standard food is piece of bacon
fried; the fat taken, and with -four or
meal mixed into heavy mass and con
signed to the II cvitable frying pan, and
out comes lump of leathery- looking
something which the stomach of an
ostrich could not digest. Give him a
chicken, and what does he do with it?
Cuts it up, and into the frying pan it
goes. After being slowly sinlmered un>
ill hard, it is put into deep dish and
grease poured over it, and what is not
soaked up in the chicken is made way
with by soaking his leathery bread in it.
Give him rich, JUICY steak, aud into
the frying pan it goes, and it is slowly
simmered and simmercd until no knife
will cut it, and then eaten with heavy
bread, soaked 10 the remaining fat; and
thus good wholesome food in quantity
sufficient to afford a wholesome meal for
a French artisans family, is by the fry
ing pan process rendered not only barely
enough for one man, but converted into
slow poison andsa frightful source OF
disease. Scarcely day passes but some
poor sufferer applies to me for relief from
the "frying pan disease which relief |
am unable to rive without an entire
change in his or her habits, and, unless
such change is effected, whose appropriate, :,
epitaph will be, ssDicd ofa Frying Pan

Of roasting coffee many changes takh place

that the present aromo Of coffee is dils, it
is important to retain this as much as
