THE CAROLINA CROPS
A FINE PROSPECT IN THE EASTERN
SECTION or THE STATE.
RurianIy Conduct Of a Railroad Pssssn-
ger-Odd-FeIIows' Anniversary--Cot-
ton-MTIs Near Raleigh.

Correspondence Of the Richmond Dlspatch.l
SCOTLAND NICK. n. c., April 25.-four
correspondent took glimpse at the farms
in Pitt county this week. Everything is
moving on well and the potato crop looks
fine. In Edgecombe county the cotton
crop is up and about ready to crop out.
SHOCKED PAssESGERs.
Passengers on the train from Kinston to
Scotland Neck yesterday were very much
shocked at the ungentlemanly conduct OF
one passenger. who was unknown to
the others. He was apparently ABOUT
sixty years old, Of WHY build, ana
wore a gray mOustache. He had on
the seat he occupied a common travel
ling valise. When the train reached
q certain station on the road he was out OF
his seat, aud an aged lady from the country
came upon the train. She was dressed IN
a very becoming attire, wore an old-tash-
toned bonnet. and as could been seen at q
glance was the mistress OF some we'll
ordered country home--a true lady. Her
deportment, however, showed that she
had not been much accustomed to travel
ling. She took the first seat she came 10
that was unoccupied, which was the seat
upon which the man had left his yallse.
AN AGED BLACKBOARD.
Soon the man returned, and notwlth-
standing the next seat just behind the Lady
was unoccupied as well as twenty more IN
the car he deliberately ordered tie lazy
out Of his seat and TO another. The whole
company of passengers were much out
ragged at the spectacle. and one very quiet
Christian lady remarked to your CORE
spondent that she could wiring his neck"
II certainly was not in keeping with south
ern courtesies and the Difference uniformly
paid to southern women.
PROSPERITY EVERYWHERE.
Establishing in the Roanoke river here
is good. Large quantities are being caught.
Strawberries are being shipped from
Greenyille.

noke College Discuss Woman Suffrage.
Correspondence Of the Richmond Dispatch.l
SALEM, Va, April 25.-The annual junior
debate of the Demosthenean Literary So
ciety of Roanoke College was held in the
City Hall last night. The stage was taste
fully decorated with evergreens twined
with spring flowers, callas, and rich gera:-
NUNS, and the orchestra excelled itself.
A. +. Shenk, of Virginia, presided. After
PRAYER by Rev. G. A. Miller, of the Luthe-
ran church, the first orator, W. II; Greeyer,
spoke with decided success on Marlus IN
the Ruins of Carthage"
WOMAN SUFFRAGE.
The debate of the question, "Resolred,
That suffrage should be extended to
woman" was the life of the whole enter;
tainment. The affirmative was advocated
by L. II. McCauley and j. j. Bruheck,
while the negatiye-the ungdLdnt part-was
upheld by j. b. Sha.itz and L. G. Cronbe.
This debate was rendered more interesting
from the fact that the subject" was out,
or rather present, in all her force and
beauty. The affirmative seemed to play
the role Of medi@yal knights and cham
pions, while the negative men clearly, be-
trayed the fact, by the gentleness OF their
tones and imploring smiles, that they were
very afirmatively inclined.
The final orator-and good one-was
Mr.. e. V. Cox, of North Carolina.
The ushers were /. w. Lamm, W. II.
KYLE, G.. S. Bowman, and James Nc
The marshals were W. S. Cox Chief, S.
J. Homer, U. NJ. Carwell, w. II. Teeter,
and G. B. Morehead.
