New Story.

Private Allen Comes to the Front With
New Story.
From, the Mo5iIs Rec lister.
1t is said that Miss Winnie Davis
is one of those charming PERSONAL
ties, like Mrs Cleveland, toward
whom every man and every woman
is insensibly drawn 1t is a great
gift, greater than riches or power, to
have this personal magnetism
When the Aberdeen delegation went
down to call upon the ex-President
the other day, Miss Davis helped to
make the visitors welcome, and each
member of the delegation felt in his
heart of hearts that Miss Davis smil-
ed more sweetly and more graciously
upon him than upon the Others, tho
it was noticed that Private John AL
len obtained the greater part of her
time Meanwhile Mr.. Davis was tell
ing Capt. Sykes what a fine colonel
the Captain had been during the war,
and what fine colonies the MISSISSIPPI
ians We're generally, and there is no
kind of doubt that Captain Sykes
was pleased to have his known mer-
it's recognized by the illustrious chief
of the Southern Confederacy On the
way home the compliments paid
Captain Sykes seemed to occupy too
much room in the parlor car wherein
the delegation had taken refuge, and
when Captain Sykes allow d break
to occur in the conversation, Private
Allen remarked quietly that he guess
e.. the gentlemen hadnot heard what
Miss Winnie was saying to him while
Mr.. Davis was lathering Captain
Sykes all over with glory 1t was
true, no one had heard what Miss
Winnie had said, so Private Allen,
| after some solicitation, proceeded to
| say that Miss Winnie was very warm
in her greeting, and, after hearing
the remarks of her father addressed
to Captain Sykes, turned to Mr.. AL
len and said: "All through the long
and bloody contest for Southern lib
| erty | watched your brilliant career
as private [subdued smoker from
! Captain Sykes corner of the earl.
and my fathers cheek blanched pale
as he announced in auivrring tones
that all was lost Allen had surren-
dered" There was a solemn hush,
only broken by the whisperings of "a
new ballad, sounding in the tones of
Capt. Sykes, and beginning with the
words, "Winnie was a baby then"

Notwithstanding these facts and 4

Notwithstanding these facts and Il
thousand Others within easy reach,
our friend will stick to the corpora
tiOns. Well, so be it. We are Eere
reminded of Jay Gould, who, in his
testimony before an Investigating
committee of the n Y legisla ture
said:-''I do not know how much l
paid towards helping friendly men.
We had four States to look after,
and we had to suit our politics to
circumstances In Democratic
district was a Democrat; in a Re-
publican district | was a Republican.
but in every district and at all times
| have been an Erie Railroad man."
These railway corporations have
many very friendly men" as Jay
Gould styles them, in this county
They will take off their hats and bow,
themselves to a box car of r. & D..
R. R. We have, tits thought, country
officials OF wealth and standing"
who have spell of collie whenever
the President of the Richmond &
Danville eats cabbage. This is per-
haps putting it rather strong, but
there can be no doubt of the almost
miraculous magnetism-the ponder
GUS persuasive powers of the "power-
full and wealthy" corporations We
say to the people Of North Carolina
in all candor, ''Pick your fints and
keep your powder dry"
Since our friend seems to regard
this as a useless discussion, tending
to the benefit of no one," we do not
feel inclined to prolong it. If, how
ever, after reconsideration he shall
conclude to re-enter the Forum in
behalf of the corporation, we assure
him a cordial welcome. In the mean
time we offer to him the kindest re-
CARDS of ONE OF THE PEOPLE.

An Odd Character.

AN GOO Onaractef.
We present our readers this week
with some incidents in the life of the
late Judge Jno. M. Cloud, written by
Hon. W. H. Bailey, of Charlotte.
Judge Cloud lived in Winston and
most of our people are familiar with
much of the history of his life He
is buried in the cemetery in Salem and
his epitaph was written by Mr.. C. B.
WatsOn.
He was fine judge. His decisions
were clear-cut and few were ever re-
versed by the Supreme Court. He de-
pended more on his common sense
than on his legal learning and his de-
cisions were usually just.

PATIENCE WITH THE LIVING.

lie Christian Advocate
oWeet friend, When thou and are gone
Beyond earth's weary labor,
When small shall be our need of grace
From comrade or from neighbor:
Passed all the strife, the toll, the care
And done with all the signing,
What tender ruth shall we have gained,
Alas by simply dying?
Then lips too chary of their praise
Will tell our merits over.
And eyes too swift our faults to see
Shall no defect discover
Then hands that would not lift stone
Where stones were thick to cumber
Our steep hill path will scatter flowers
Above our pillowed slumber.
Sweet friend, perchance both thou and l.
Ere love is past forgiving,
Should take the earnest lesson home
BE patient with the living.
Today's repressed rebuke may save
Our binding tears tomorrow;
Then patience-e'en when keenest edge
May whet a nameless sorrow.
TITS easy to be gentle when
Deaths silence shames our camor,
And easy to discern the best
Through memory's mystic glamour;
But wise 1t were for thee ard me,
Ere love is past forgving,
To take the tender lesson home
Be patient with the living.

IT is a pity the world has never had EYES ac-
count of the little trouble in the Garden of Eden.
1t might read differently, Adam seems to have
made the case out in his own interest Garden
City Herald
This is matter Of opinion In some eyes Adam
made a bad record for himself. After eating of
the forbidden fruit, while Eve explained to the
angel of the Lord, Adam hid in the Crimson"
weed and on emerging from his hiding place he
turned States evidence and thus the story has
been handed down.
There is something entirely unreasonable in the
episode of our first parents in the garden. In the
first place it was unlike woman to be the first
one to dlsobey the Lords command If she be-
held her companion gazing with longing eyes, you
can hear her now saying, 'Now, Adam, you know
it is the forbidden fruit, and we must not dis
obey"

given on Adams evidence been accepted and it

ONCE in while there is a new idea under the
sun, the adage to the contrary notwithstanding.
A man by the name of Warwick has written book
on physical culture, and he makes war on the
corset. But his method is novel, and even the
Atlantic Monthly endorses it, and says it takes
pleasure in registering each fresh attack upon the
venerable monster
Mr.. Warwick proposes that the men band them
selves together and publicly declare that they will
never again embrace a young lady who wears
corset-except on tral-and he thinks ere the sun
had descended on that proclamation, the corsets
would part company with their victims to whom
they had so fondly chung.
New methods for working reform are in constant
demand, but fancy the feminine uprising with such
an impending fate. Mr.. Warwick has solved the
problem. The corset must go.
In the address before the students of the Ar
kansas Industrial University at Fayetteville, Mr..
Horace G. Allis of Little Rock, paid the following
fine tribute to woman:
"What can woman do? The grandest success
on the face of the earth is an ambitious woman.
An ambitious woman makes better bookkeeper,
better stenographer and typewriter, better tel
egraph operator, a better clerk, where physical
strength is not required, than man. | speak
from my own experience with them, and it seems
to be true of financial judgment, for Mrs. Hettie
Green has held Wall street and the stock market
under her thumb for years, with the success of
Gould or Vanderbilt and brought the barons of
the Central Pacific to her own terms. But you
can't all be queens of finance. Like the men, some
must lead and others must follow, and, in fact,
your greatest success lies in your power and in
fuence for good over men,"

Example sEay Find Many Followers
NEW York, Aug. sl.-M Masonic circles
were greatly agitated by the resignation
OF Past NJ. X. Commander William II.
Peckham, tlairty-third degree, from
membership in Cernean consistory No. /,
thirty-second degree, this city, thus sew
ering his connection with Scottish rite
masonry.
This action adds new interest to the
bitter feud between the adherents Of Al
bert Pike and those of Ferdinand Gorgos.
Every adherent of the latter is, by re-
cent Masonic proclamation, In danger
of expulsion from the Blue lodge Of Ma
sorry, and the resignation OF Mr.. Peck
ham will, IL is SAID by prominent Ma
sons, be followed by many others.
MIR. Peckham's Reasons.
Mr.. Peckham was for many years
prominent among the Cerneau rite
MasOns and for several years held the
&AAANACcs UAAANNg b&AtAN VI kAtAAAW 1QAAAANMkA0&G
for the United states. Two years ago
he resigned and was succeeded BY +. s.
Gorgos, of Baltimore.
Mr.. Peckhams present resignation, as
he states in an open letter addressed;
ITO the Masonic fraternity throughout,
the world" Is because OF the applica-
ton of the supreme council of the body
with the Grand orient of france, which
docs not recognize the existence Ut d
personal God, whereas, Mr.. Peckham
states, such recognition is the very cor
ner stone of true Masonry.
A Mason for Forty Years.
Mr.. Peckham has been Mason forty
years. The utilization referred to con-
sisted in MIR. Gorgos visiting and meet
ing with the council of the ORDER Of
the Grand Orient while on visit 10
Paris in 1883. This council, IL has been
claimed, is district body from that of
the Grand Orient, Dut Mr.. Peckhain
gives the names Of the members of the
Grand Orient and shows that the coHn-
Gil is made up from them.
Consequently, he says, the council
was under the ban of n0n-Masonic inter-
course. IN view of these facts he feels
constrained to sever his connection with
Scottish rite Masonry.
