TOWNS WIPED OUT.
The Seyerest Earthquake in the His
tory of the World.

SAN SALVADOR, Sept. II, 1901
Millions of dollars worth of property
and many lives were destroyed in this
Republic by an earthquake yesterday.
Whole towns were wiped out and it is
feared, as advices received indicate,
hardly city in the country except
those along the coast escaped the awful
effects of the Convulsion. At five min
utes before two o'clock yesterday
morning the earth began to shake and
wave and had 4 strong vertical and
osCillatOry movement.
People rushed into the streets in
their night clothing. While the shock
lasted only twenty seconds before it
passed away, the panic stricken were
making their way to the open country
outside the city.
The scene was terribly sublime, men,
women and children shrieking and
praying in the street; the walls Of the
houses cracked, tottered, fell; deep,
continuous rumbling as if heavy thun-
der. The sky was overcast, air was
filled with fine penetrating dust. While
the shock lasted the earth rose and
fell in long waves and strong men
were unable to keep on their feet.

Taxing the North Carolina Ware
houses.

We are not aware that, notwith-
standing the increase in the tobacco
crop and consequently the multiplying
of tobacco warehouses in North Caro-
lima, any but very few are so pros
porous as to excite the special and
pointed taxing proclivities of the Leg
islature of North Carolina. A big bus
mess for the warehouses is a necessity
to keep up and to preserve the market
intact. The planter gets the money
back made in commissions. Expenses
are heavy the noise and hustle and
advertising and drumming looks big on
the barn and fence and bill board, but
profits are by no means so big as ap-
pears on the surface. Tax them too
high and uniustly, and in turn the
planter pays and suffers, as well as the
town. Give them a chance first; tax
the investments when the proprietors
get rich and regal.-Richmond South

HOW MY BOY WENT DOWN.

I'VE publish the following sad and DER
true refrain with the hope that it may be
the means of warning to some bright,
promising boy or an effectual appeal to
those who place temptation in the way:l
1t was not on the field of battle,
1t was not with ship at sea-
But a fate far worse than either,
That stole him away from me.
Twas the death in the ruby wine cup
That the reason and senses drown;
He drank the alluring poison,
And thus my boy went down.
Down from the heights of manhood
To the depths of disgrace and sin;
Down to worthless being,
From the hope of what might have been,
For the brand Of beast besotted,
lie bartered his manhOod'S crown;
Through the gate of sinful pleasure
My poor, weak boy went down.
'Tis only the same old story,
That mothers so often tell
With accents of infinite sadness,
Like the tones of funeral bell,
But never once thought when | heard 1t
should learn all its meanings myself
thought he'd be true to his mother;
thought he'd be true to himself,
But alas for my hopes All delusion de
Alas for his Youthful pride :-~
Alas Who are safe when danger
Is open on every side?
o can nothing destroy this great evil
No bar in their pathway be thrown,
To save from the terrible maelStrom
The thousands of boys going down?

HOW THE AMERICAN TOBACCO
COMPANY BUYS IT'S LEAF.
TSOuthern Tobacco journal. |

The American Tobacco company
has the most perfect syetem in all the
management Of its affairs. Year after
year it clips off expenses here and there,
and is now working all departments
under the most economical plan.
One of the latest changes is to place
all the leaf buyers on the eastern
markets on salary. The coming year
all buyers will be paid a stated salary
and their entire service must be at
the command of the company. These
salaries range from $1,000 to $1,000
per year but when buyer enters the
service Of the company he is debarrcd
from buying any tobacco except that
wanted by the trust. He can not
take an order from any one else
neither can he speculate. His entire
time is at the disposal of the big
concern.
Arrangements have been made for
buyers on most of the markets. Here
the business passes out of the hands Ot
Edmunds * Gilmer and goes to Mr.
SChaum. In Danville Robert Haskins
4 Co. do the buying; in Greensboro
Mr.. II. w. Cobb is retained, and in
Oxford and Henderson the old buyers
remain, Mr.. Matt Currin at the former
place and Mr.. John ID. Cooper at
latter. The Walkers, perhaps, manage
on the Durham and Asheville markets
We have heard it stated, and also de
MED, that the company would place
no buyers on the Reidsville market
because of Mr.. Webster's articles The
company will this year buy all grades
of leaf, from the common cutter up to
the finest wrapper.
