The Twin-City and the State Pres
Convention.

A few days ago the proprietor of
the Hotel Quincy, this city, sent
an invitation to Editor Thad R.
Manning, of the Henderson Gold
Leaf. to make Hotel Quincy his
home during the session of the State
Press Association next week. Mr..
Manning accepts the cordial invite
through his paper, and among other
things he has this to say of our towns
and people:
'The people of Salem are
going to put their best foot foremost
in the matter of entertaining the ed
itors, and that every arrangement
and detail will be in full keeping
with the broad minded, liberal-hand-
ed. progressive spirit of the citizens
of the Twin City. goes without say
ing among those who know what
kind of people they are. They do
nothing of this kind in half-hand-
ed way, and whether it be in making
a success Of their individual bust
ness, establishing great schools, op-
Grating gigantic land companies, Sc
curing public improvements, or
building fourishing and prosper
Gus city, they usually accomplish
what they undertake. And so we
say the North Carolina editors have
treat in store for them in being the
guests of such a people. We know
whereof we speak. We have been
there and mingled freely with her
successful business men, her gracious
and charming matrons and bewitch-
ing maidens. There are no cleverer
or more hospitable people the world
over.
"Already we have received invita-
tions from friends to make their
home the repository of our grip sack
and linen duster during our stay
there.n

How Will Dillon and O'Brien Manage?

Dillon and O'Brien are now out of
Jail and are looking around. The
prospect is not entirely pleasing and
they are little disposed to 60 in
again, like the ground hog in Feb
ruary, and wait while longer till
they can no more see the shadow of
Parnell in their path. Parnell, on
the other hand, declines to take him
self out of the way, and Dillon, who
is in many ways most capable lead
er, is apparently uncertain what is
the wisest thing to do between now
and the next elections to get the
party together.-Philadelphia Times

A Wonderful Lilly Pond.

Twelve miles north of Norwich,
Conn.,, is one of the most wonderful
lily ponds in all America 1t is n lake
one mile in diameter, and SO closely
grown with lilies that during blossom
ing time it is hard to get n glimpse
of the tor. When the wind is strong
and the lilies are open the perfume
is p"rceptible a-quarter of a mile a.
way. So thick are the lilies, and in
such tangled masses, that it is almost
impossible to propel a boat in the
pond. and the; lily-gatherers wade for
them in rubber boots. Not only are
the lilies very plentiful, but the bios
