body.
The membership roll was increased by
eleven, and nine propositions were sub

cial secretary. He preferred wrestling
with the parallel bars than with figuers.
Daniel +. Cody was chosen to fill the
vacancy. 1t was decided to have a stag

day. A recess was taken for the recep-
ton of dues. and the treasurer went homo

The meeting between Cal Mccarthy
and Dixon will be q notable event in the
history of the ring. 1t has aroused al
most as much interest as the battle be-
tween Sullivan and Kilrain.
A large amount of money has been
wagercd on the result, and a Boston syn
dictate has contributed $4,000 to lay ON
Dixon. The prominent sporting men in
New York pin their faith to the Jersey
hoy and will be ready to meet every offer
of the New England contingent.
The clever featherweights will meet in
a few days. Mccarthy is over the severe
work of training and is now takiug uns
daily under the instruction of his trainer.
Dixon, it is said, is Gown to weight aud he
is reported to be at his best. Both are

On IKE DAalnOnus
The Atlantic Association officers are
elected over the prospect. The purchase
of the Worcester Clubs franchise has
been a hard blow for the New England
League. Frank Bancroft, the president
of the New England League, has re-
signed, and this would indicate that as
that experienced and shrewd manager
has retired so quickly that he has little
confidence in the staying qualities of the
New England League with Worcester
out. 1t is extremely probable that Provi-
dence will now go into the Atlantic n
complete the circuit.
The Jersey Citys have now six players
on the lfst:-Wheeler and Fitzgerald,
pitchers; Brady, manager and first base;
Burdock, second base; Van Alstine, third
base, and Joseph McGovern for the out
field.
A contract has been forwarded to a
well-Rnown short stop and it is expected
that he will affiX bis signature promptly.
It is said that Reipschlager will be
signed.
Snap Lang, the favorite and indus
trious short stop. is in great demand. He
has been offered handsome salaries by
several clubs. Snap has a fondness for
Jersey City. He likes the town and the
people.

The Wizard of Electricity Chats About
North Carolina.
ICharlOtte Chronicle. ]

Yesterday afternoon Chronicle re-
porter met Mr.. Edison, the world fa-
NOUS inventor of the telephone, the
phonograph, and several hundred other
valuable things, strolling around Char
lotte, quietly observing the city and
the people.
In conversation with the reporter,
Mr.. Edison said that what North Car
olina is most in need of is geological
maps Of the State. Pennsylvania and
New Jersey have both been carefully
surveyed. Every hill 20 feet high is
down on the maps. There are many
persons seeking investment, but they do
not know the mineral and timber re-
sources of North Carolina. This State
should have a complete geological sur
vey made, especially with regard to the
commercial minerals; SO that when one
is looking for investment, he can take
geological map Of North Carolina,
and see just what the State offers.
North Carolina needs white immigra-
ton. You cannot get people here with
out your offering them something def
mite; and you all here do not your
St Ives know fully and thoroughly what
y)u have to offer.
How much would such a survey
cost7 queried the reporter.
Well, said Mr.. Edison, one compe-
tent geological surveyor and four OF
five assistants would be sufficient. Il
would take that force about five years
to complete the State survey in salts
factory manner. l should think S6,-

A Remedy for Hard Times.
mt. Olive telegram

Don't you think that we have about
exhausted the theme Of hard times 2
and is it not time to call a halt, and
begin to try to remedy the ills that
surround us, by working with might
and main to improve our condition
Let every man try in his own vocation
to do some good, by using frugality
and industry. If We are wise, and will
use the means within our power, we
can do much toward easing the bur-
dens. Nature has done everything fol
US that is essential to health and COM
fort, and if we will observe the sim.
plest lessons, success and prosperity
will come. So don't despond, but &c
to work, and put life in what we do
Don't give up but work the harder.

Young Man, go South.
baltimore Manufacturers Record

baltimore Manufacturers Record.1
Within the past five or six years the
growth of the South has been SO great
that newspapers and publicists and
others have changed the famous saying
of the founder of the New York 7,1-
bune, and advised young men to face
Southwark instead of Westward.
When Mr.. Greely made his famous
remark the West was a great undevel-
oped empire. 1t contained thousands
upon thousands of square miles of rich
virgin soil. such as the world had not
dreamed of. When the truth became
known, and the richness of the soil
was unquestionable, people poured
into this great empire in way that
cast the famous '49 stampede to Cali
fornia in the shade. These immigrants
included not only farmers, but farm
hands, blacksmiths, carpenters ,masons,
store keepers, journalists, teachers in
short, representatives of every sort and
kind of employment. More than this
there was room for every one of these
immigrants. A new empire was to be
built from the very foundations. Viii
lages, towns and cities sprang up with
such rapidity that there was room and
employment for everybody.
In the South the case is somewhat
different. The undeveloped resources
of the South are not only greater than
those of the West, but much more
varied. The foundations for grand
empire are already laid, however.
What is needed now is the superstruc-
ture, and the material required for this
is of a different nature from that re-
| quired for the foundations. A few
years ago young man could 60 West
and find an opening in almost any
line of work. The demand for work
ers exceeded the supply. In the South
on the other hand, the supply of un-
skilled labor is still equal to the de-
mand, but skilled labor is wanted
If a man has trade-if he is a good
farmer, miner, blacksmith, carpenter
machinist or skilled in any one branch
of labor or work-he will find an
opening awaiting him. If he has a
little money laid by he can take that
with him, land reap as substantial bene.
fits as ever he could have reaped in the
West. If the young man who contem'
plates striking out boldly into the
world will stop and consider the foun
dations upon which the North, tht
South and the West are built, he viii
see at a glance which section offer
the most inviting field to his energies

Heart fibres in their clinging grasp;
God bless the youth with eager gaze;

At home, abroad, please God, we cry.
God guard His own, meath any sky!
God ease the weary ones who bear
A cumbering weight of grief and care;

The honest loaf for honest toll;
We round the heart felt prayer and hymp,
And breathe Amen with Tiny Tim,
AS reverently, please God. we say.

A Lesson Taught by Hard Times
REV Dr. Hufham in Recorder. ]

The crop failures of last year make
the merchants and farmers cautious in
their plans and estimates for the new
year; but they are pushing ahead low
ingly and cheerfully. 1t makes one
think better of humanity to witness
the spirit in which they bore the dis
asters of the old year and turned to
face the trials and discouragements OF
the new year.

A Million Dollar Syndicate.
Winston Daily.1

We were informed to-day by large
tobacco manufacturer Of Winston that
negotiations were pending between a
wealthy New York Syndicate and
several of our tobacco manufacturers
for the purchase of their plants. 1t
seems that they have offered to buy
five of the largest factories in Winston,
for which they agreed to pay full value
for buildings, machinery, ETC., and
then pay each one hundred and TWEEN
ty-fve thousand dollars for the brands,
name Of the firms, ETC., provided these
parties enter into a contract to never
again engage in the tobacco manufac-
turing business. The trade, if con-
summated, would necessarily cause to
be invested in our town three million
of dollars and would be the biggest
deal of the kind made in our State.

The only disap. pointmen. was that tho stubbornness of the old association has left it's members wholly out of the final deal The official statement Of tho terms of settlement will not be issued by the two parties to the arbitration till tomorrow. but 1t Is reliably stated that the document signed in the presence of the three judges pro, vidlng eight hours shall constitute tAy's work, to begin at a- m.. and end at 5 ?. m.
