BARNUM,S TRIBE OF NUBIANS.
Some Traits Of the Strange People Secured by the
Snowman.
philadelphia Itmes.)


A tribe of thirty Nubians, fresh
from their native country, will be
added to Barnum's show at the end of
this week. They were bought from
their chief, Arashkoi, at the rate of
$400 for each man and $500 for each
woman. It took several months for
them to travel from their home in
Africa, through burning deserts and
over rocky mountains, to the red Sea.
From the Suez canal they were taken
to Trieste, thence to Bremen, and at
the latter port they were placed in a
steamer for New York. It is claimed
that these are the first Nubians that
ever left their country for purposes of
exhibition. Among other queer pro-
pensities, they delight to spend hours
at time greasing their long black
hair with sleeps tallow until it is al
most snow white. Then they twist the
sticky mass into hundreds of queer
shapes and on the top-knot place a
thorn thickly studded with smaller
thorns to serve as comb. The Nu-
bians, as described in dispatches to the
Snowman, are very dextrous with the
sword and particularly graceful horse
men. AT Bremen when one of the
Nubians was taken sick the agents OF
the circus were startled by his friends
laying him out and cutting dozen
holes with an assegai in the hollow OF
his back. They next applied small
horns to the wounds and sucked out
about pint of blood. AS most of the
| Nubiar1 ailments are said to be owing
to their being too full-blooded, this is
remedy which seldom fails, and is
even thought infallible. Mr.. Barnun
expects that the queer-colored and un
tractable savages will prove a create,
attraction than the Victoriun Jumbo

A SMART BOY.

A San Francisco millionaire, hoping
to encourage his promising son in
ways of thrift, promised to give him
two percent month interest upon any
money that he might save out of his
spending allowance and deposit in the
paternal treasury. The young man
was getting twenty dollars week for
pocket money, and promised to show
his appreciation of his fathers affec
tionate offer He began to make de-
posits without delay, and kept the
practice up with remarkable regulari-
ty. The old gentleman noticed pres
emily that the deposits exceeded the
whole of the boys allowance, but ac-
counted for this by supposing that he
had saved some money previously:
Besides this, he received mony fire.
quently from his mother. So the fond
parent rejoiced in the saving disposi-
ton that his son was displaying. This
continued until the boys deposits as
sumed such dimensions as to demand
an explanation. It then turned out
that most of the money he had been
depositing had been borrowed. Inas-
much as he was drawing interest on
his deposits at two percent month,
and was paying only ten percent a
year for them, he had found the busi-
ness decidedly attractive and protita-

WHERE THEWORD DUDE CAMERON.

The just now popular word dude,
meaning an empty-headed, languid-
mannered young swell who bangs his
hair, proves to be no foreign importa-

sive term, to be of good New England
parentage. The word (pronounced in
two syllables) has been used in the lit
tie town Of Salem, N. H., for twenty
years past, and it is claimed was coin
ed there. It is common there to speak
of a dapper young man as "dude Of

GRADED SCHOOL GOSSIP.
(Edento71 Enq1lirer.)

THE Graded School will pay 1t pays
in Goldsboro, it pays elsewhere where there
has not been too many drones to clog its
progress.
THE colored people should favor Graded
Schools. Better educatIon1s whit rney IieeSt
and there is no cheaper and better way of
getting it than by the Graded Schools.
THE town election has nothing to do with
the Graded School issue. That is question
which should be above political considera-
ton. 1t is a question simply as to whether
we will have better schools in Edenton or
not. Now which will you favor? Will you
stand on the side of ignorance, or on the side
of better education?
IT is argued that the Graded School is in
tended simply to kill out the good private
schools in Edenton. Such is not the case
We have as good teachers here as elsewhere
Let them be employed in the Graded School,
where they will get as good, or better wages,
and accomplish more good, Let them "Pool
their interests" and benefit themselves as
well as the public
