MIcHIaAN's CENTENARY
The grand old state of Michigan,
Last night with joyous pleasure,
Her hundredth birthday glorified
In most completest measure.
There viands rich were swept away
In gold and crimson juices,
And tender Michiganders smiled
On lovely Michigooses.
And Wolverouts all wish in vain,
That in the worlds creation,
They had been Wolverines, instead,
To do this celebration.

Conn., The business has been establish ed 10 years, moving here three years ago. The farmers bring in the hickory from 2o miles around, which cannot be excelled. The works are buying in large quantities, turning it into spokes and shipping direct to northern factories, about 45,OO0 to car load. This is direct benefit to the farmers, who, otherwise, would be un- l able to dispose of their wood and, in re- turn, leave much of the proceeds in town. which is also great benefit to the mer- chants. Many of the farmers come from long distances and, on account of the poor condition of the roads, carry feed for their horses and themselves and camp out over night in large schooner or prair- ie wagons in the park; as many as b have been counted around blazing fires. | The Thomasville chair works, one of I the industries of the place, turn out hun dreds of oak chairs of many patterns.
 The Thomasville rolling mills buy large quantities of North Carolina wheat and also import in considerable quanti- ties; have established a reputation for making good flour.
 Here, also, is one of the orphan ylums of the State, where from l25 to 15O child | ren are trained under the teachings of the Baptists. The grounds comprise 1000 l acres and several buildings and is pleas antly located.
 John White of Bridgeport, Conn.,, has his Tammany kennel located here for the Winter for the boarding and training of valuable bird dogs, under the supervision of John Cassidy of Bridgeport, for the field trials in the Spring near Richmond, one of which, the 'Duke of Hesse,' took first prize at the recent bench show in New York. Luke White, formerly of Bridgeport, also has his kennels here. Within radius of q few miles on the Deep River, within 10 miles of each oth- CT, are 15 large cotton factories, all re- | gently put up. It is now said that South Carolina has more than enough cotton factories to make up all the cotton she raises and the day is not far distant when there will not be cotton plant left in the North, on account of the facilities for ob~ taining the cotton and the cheapness of labor in the South.
 Common labor Is very cheap here, 'darkies getting from 25 to 45c q day and white man from 50 to 65c. Skilled me- chancs command a little more. The cost of living is also in proportion. The best cuts of meat can be bought for six and eight cents pound and it must be very choice cut to bring 10 cents. Eggs l0c a dozen; potatoes 40c a bushel; butter 15 to 18c pound; chickens can be bought for 10 to 15c apiece; pork, the staple product, is worth 6c pound.
 The Carolinas, for healthfulness of eli mate and pureness of air, are unsurpass- ed in the United States. Here you find any temperature to suit your consttu- ton. In the eastern part are the tar and turpentine forests; in the western are the snow capped peaks of the Blue Ridge, while in the central and southern parts you find the warm, balmy air of a beau tiful May morning, with the blue birds and robins singing at your window, mak- | ing you cheerful with their gladsome songs.-[J., Thomasville, N. C.
