THE AMENDE HONORABLE.


How Railroad Hog Was Conquered BY
Professional Courtesy.
A few days ago, on the Grand Rapids
train, apassenger got on at small sta
ton and walked through the coaches
without being able to find seat. He
finally halted before a man who occu-
pied a whole seat and seemed bound to
keep it. He was not invited to sit down.
On the contrary, the occupant of the
seat assumed more frigid attitude.
"Sir," finally exclaimed the indig-
nant stranger from the small station,
you are an Internal hogr'
What's thatP What do you call
mep'
IAN Internal hog, sir!''
"You do! you do! Why, sir, I'll
knock the top Of your idiotic head clear
across Eaton County,"
"You can't do it!''
Eyes, canr'
Both men were on their feet in the
aisle and ready to spill gore when the
conductor came in and shouted to the
one who had been called hog:
"Hold on Doctor-what is itp''
"DoctorP" queried the man from the
small station, 'are you doctor?"
"Yes, sir"
Why, SO am I!''
Good gracious, is that truer'
They exchanged cards.
They shook hands.
why, of course you can have half
my seat-all of 1.-THE whole car!''
/ 'Oh, no, no, Doctor!I wouldn't dis
turb you for the worldr'
''But, Doctor, insist''
well, Doctor, if you insist. why I'll
be glad to sit with you"
"Of course, Doctor"
And the doctors sat down together in
one seat, and were SO soft and tender
and loving that tears sprung to the eye
Of every passenger. - Detroit Free PreSs.

stirring in clear water, the greasy nature
of the coffee causing it to float on top

COUNTY AND TOWNSHIP CoNvEN-
TIoNs.
Chairman II. B. Carter, of the
county democratic executive COM
mittee, has issued his call for coun,
ty convention be held in Ashe-
vile on Saturday 10th July, and
suggests to the people ofthe several
townships to hold township conven-
tions on the Sd of July Saturday.
to select delegates to the county
convention on the 10th.
This county convention will only
appoint delegates to the judicial
convention to be held in Charleston,
Swain county, on the 18th of July,
to the State convention to be held in
Raleigh on the 26th day of August.
and the congressional convention to
be held at time and place to be
designated hereafter.
A judge and solicitor for this the
18th district are to be nominated by
t-se.4a,1A.,ti-a,a- of Gharlas-
ton, three supreme courts judges
are to be nominated at Raleigh, and
a congressman by the convention
when called.
We would request every demo-
crat in every township to attend
his respective township convention,
and select the most prudent and in
telligent men to send to the county
convention. AS many delegates
may be chosen as may be desired,
but each township will be entitled
to cast one vote for every twenty
five democratic voter cast in the
toHnship for governor in the last
election and one for every fraction
of fifteen votes cast as above.
The officers to be filed this year
are most important, to the country
and democracy. Let the people
turn out in full force to all the con-
ventions, select true delegates, and,
after these delegates have acted as
is best for the immediate and future
interests of our party, let all the
party unite in endorsing the action
of the delegates.

HORSE DRowNEp.

DR.. Battle had the misfortune to lose
hisvaluablegray horse yesterday through
the apparent carelessncss of the driver.
The Doctor had been at Alexander's and
there engaged a young colored man
named James Barnum to bring bis horse
and buggy to this city. AT q point On
the river near the Burnsville road the
ground bears evidence of a struggle on
the palt of the horse and an upset. 1t is
supposed the driver went to sleep and
the animal having defective sight walk
off the bank, and in its struggles to re-
gain its footing overturned the vehicle,
and houndered into deep water where it
was found drowned.
