RALEIGH, n. c., February b.
There are ninety-siX Sherifs in the
State. OF these forty-seven have up
to to-day made full settlements Of their
taxes, while about thirty of the others
have made partial payments, in some
cases covering very nearly the entire
amount due. Most of the larger coun-
ties have paid. In view Of the general
financial condition the result is crafty
ing. Many sherifis report collections
as difficult. while some say there
is no trouble in making them. The
northeastern counties evidently feel
more acutely the financial pressure than
others, the next in order being the coun-
ties along the southern border of the
State. There are not a great number
Of failures in the State, though in the
past two months they have increased.
Pitt county leads all others in the mum
Der Of failures.
At the penitentiary stockade, near
Lockyille, Sunday the 7th instant,
there was desperate fight between

Flax had a knife made out Of table

upon Fuller, who died in few hours.
Flax was tried at PittsbOro' Saturday,
and was acquitted on the ground that
the homicide was justitiable.
James Stinson, young orphan, was
crushed to death by freight train at
Davidson College. lie attempted to
climb to the roof Of the cars to reach

The Family In Japan.

In lecture delivered in New York few
evenings ago, by a citiEen who has been IN
japan many years, this was said of the fam
ily il that country: .sThe family in Japan,
said tee Doctor, Is, in practice as well as in
theory. the cornerstone of the nation. The
father asd mother are regarded with reyer-
ence. and the family sits in loving conclave
on all concerns of its members. Politeness
and self-restraInt are ingrained in the chill
dren. and az uncIvil word is rarely heard.
Marriage Is union of families rather than
of individuals. The parties to it are chosen
in family council. The relatives of the hus-
band and vile jeslously guard the domestic
honor of each. rhe young girls receive no
visits except from nembers of their own
families, and are trained in Ill the minute
details of household management. After
marriage they are allowed almost as much
infiaence as the husbands in concerns of the
family, aud their opinions are often consult
ed. Divorce is not so common in Japan Is
in America, and the reports OF gross immor-
ality are unfounded. A greater degree of
refinement and cultivation prevails among
the people than is generally understood"

A Body For The Doctors.

Body snatchIng has grown to be one of
the great evils of the day aid in some local
ities the dread of body snatching, or steal
ing, is so great that the greatest pans are
taken to secure the graves of deceased peo-
pie from the despoiler Of the tomb. Some
rich people place guard at night at the
grave of deceased friends a number Of
months after entombmeut. However there
are exceptions TO thIs general dread of fall
ing into the hands of doctors, after death
as may be illustrated in the case of an un-
known man who hung himself last Thursday
morn ing TO an awning post in Greensburg,
Pa. The name on his shirt was j. Little.
He was about sixty-fve years Of age, and
weighed two hundred pounds. He had a
