American UAion surpasses the Old North
State in her varied and superior timbers.
A few uoaths hence a mighty structure
is to be t1,- :. and the wise and good men
Of the country want it built right and it
Is of vast importance to all classes that
it should be. The rich, the poor-the
high, the lcs-the old, the young-thc
white the black-are equally interested.
The iarner, the mechanic, the merchant
and professional man must all take a
hand in its construction. The corner
post must be Of the best, free from sap,
wind-shake or dry rot. Then other good
tlmbers may be worked in elsewhere. The
hewers or wood and drawers of water
must see to this.
North Carolina, with her natural ad-
vantages, is far behind other States, and
must have for her Governor 8 wide-awake
man, a good ~fnancier, a man who has
travelled and seen the improvements
other States are making, and can pilot
the Old North State up In line with them;
a man of good, common, hard horse
sense ; a successful man, of good habits
and good standing a forcible, political
speaker, of good address, who can COM

An Alleged Countess Shoots a
Servant.

Amelia Racouska, who claims that she
is a Countess was yesterday held in $1,000
bail by Magistrate McClintock, charged
with shooting Wiltred Coad, a lad, EN-
ployed at the house of Mrs. l.. Fl. Hall,
where the Countess boarded The latter
has been IN the habit OF burning a large
head OF gas IN the room from EARLY ID
the evening until she arose Ia the morn
ing. The landlady objected to this ex
tTavagaDce. and requested her boarder to
turn dow the light. No attention, how
ever, was paid TO the request.
About half-past / O'Clock yestcrda,
morning Mrs. Hall sent Coad to Mine
R~ac0uska's room to ask her 10 e~xtingui-i-
the hight. The Countess declined to
heed the boys demand, and, without
rising from her bed, fired a shot from a
revolver at her visitor. The ball entered
the left breast and lodged near the lung.
John w. Nystrom, who occupies a room
on the third floor, rushed down stairs,
and as he reached the apartment occupied
by the Countess another shot was fred,
the bullet passing close to his head. Mrs.
Hall, who had been aroused by the noise,
ran down stairs, and as she stood on the
landing, a third shot was fired by the
reckless Countess.
The woman her arose and bolted the
door, and the policemen who were sum
mOned were compelled to force an en-
trance. She protested against the intru-
slon-agreed to dress herself and accom-
pany them. She was arraigned before
McCllntock yesterday morning, and when
asked to give her statement she said she
thought the boy was a burglar. She had
been awaken by some one standing In her
door, and fired the shot before she saw
who 1t was.
The prisoner is a refned>looking per
son, and since her arrival in the city,
over a year ago, she has devoted herself
10 music teaching. She stopped at the
Lafayette Hotel for some months and be
came involved in a quarrel with the pro
prletor, which resulted in her being or
dered TO evacuate her apartments. This
she refused to do, aud finally her effects
were thrown out. She then brought
three suits for illegal eviction, and slam
der. Mr. Maltby denied two of the
charges, and gave as a reason for her
eJectment the nOn-payment of her board
bills. The suits are now pending. \
recent episode here was the cause of Mr..
Nystrum's bringing a suit against her for
SANDER.
The Countess claims that her husband
was several years ago by being thrown
from a horse. She says she is an opera
singer, but, having met with reverse, she
has been forced to live in retirement and
earn her living by teaching music. The
Countess was sent to prison In the police
