Why We Sink in Quicksand.

Quicksand is composed chiefly of
small particles of mica mixed largely
with water. The mica is so smooth
that the fragments slip upon each other
with the greatest facility, so that any
heavy body which displaces them will
sink, and continue to sink until solid
bottom is reached. When particles of
sand are ragged and angular any weight
pressing on them will crowd them to-
gcther until they are cOmpacted into
solid mass. A sand composed Of mica
or soapstone. when sufficiently mixed
with water, seems incapable OF such
consolidation,

and of this number 2,476 are widows, and
1,O4S are manned soldiers. The assessed
value of the real and personal property of
the State, in 1887, is given at S210,o35,-
453, as: against s2o5; 1893, SOP, for the pre-
vious year, al increase in twelve months
of $4,141,9 51. The total receipts from all
sources for the fiscal year were S954,794.7
"a, and the total disbursement for the
same. period was 1891, e59,23. The num-

Of only one between the number Of Jacks
and the number Of %jennets, there being
457 jacks as against 459 j%ennets. The re

IN ME MORIAM.

1t is our sad duty to announce the
death of that eminent Missionary di-
vine, Rev. Matthew T. Yates, D. D.
His death took place in the city of
Shanghai, China, on Saturday, March,
18th inst. DR.. Yates was born in
this (Wake) county, January sth,
1919, and at his death he was entering
upon the SEVENTEEN year of his age.
With a self-sacrifcing devotion to
duty-grandly noble in its c~onstancy
and God-like in it's sublimity, he be-
queaths to the world a heritage more
precious than gold and as enduring as
time itself. Grand and glorious man
of God thy memory is enshrined in
the great heart of Christendom and
thy name is immortal.
