ABOUT THE KIDS.

The Concord Standard Says About Legis-
lative Action for a Reform School.
To legislate for Reformatory would
be something new. To make such a
change in our penal institutions would
be very radical. At any rate, the busi-
ness before the last Legislature was such
that the matter of providing for Re-
formatory for youthful criminals was
not considered. Believing that, if the
matter was properly set before the pub
lie, it would impress itself upon the pub
lie mind as a necessity; accordingly the
Standard called upon the ministers of
the town to write their views on the sub
ject for publication. We regret that
Revs. Drs. Satterfeld, Trexler, and Rev.
B. S. Mckenzie were too busily engaged
upon pressing work to contribute their
articles to day. We will hear from them
later.

next Friday m rning before breakfast for
taking a turnip from the grocery store
Of w II. Proctor, is now circulating a
petition asking that the sentence be
changed to imprisonment for life.
When interviewed this morning he
stated that he did not object so much to
being hung, but he did kick on the hour.
He explained that he had always been
hung heretofore on full stomache and
found it much more pleasant alter than
before eating. Colonel Proctor has been
asked to contribute the turnips for the
prisoners breakfast. public sentiment
seeming to be in favor Of humoring his
appetite on this occasion. The hour for
the execution will probably be changed

DEATH OF MRS. TAMA BATTLE.
She Passes Away at Her Home at Chapel
Hill After a Brief Illness.

DR.. and Mr.. j. NJ Manning were
called to Chapel Hill to-day by the death
of their sister, Mrs. Tama Battle, who
died last night in that city.
Deceased was quite young, having
only been married about twelve months,
with life and all its possibilities before
her. She leaves devoted husband and
large circle of relatives and friends to
whom her sudden taking off is such a
bereavement as time alone can mitigate.
Her illness was brief and her death un-
expected. Thus are we again reminded
that ''we know not the day nor the
hour"

ANOTHER FALL!

Shaken Up In this Last
Shuttle.
Another mishap, but nothing fatal.
The GLOBE heard this morning that
three men had fallen from scaffOld at
Trinity and they were killed.
We got DR.. Moore, and made a mad
rush to the college, We found that the
whole thing was fake. Some coIored
men were in a fall.
Ben Ray had his head hurt.
S. D. Mimms said he was not hurt,
although on the scaffold.
jim Stanley got bad scratch on the
head-but that was weak.
Charley Dunsford had his head cut.
Another one or two had sligh bruises
and scratches.
. In fact there was nothing, and there
was only poor piece Of timber which
they put up.
1t is true that the brick were all right,
and this was just their own foolishnesS,
and no one was hurt.
This news will be bad to several, but
to people who think it will DC very good
news to know that no one WAS hurt.

Wild excitement was created on
Mangum street this morning by horse
which had gotten out Of Hardin's livery

down the streets and eluded all efforts
to capture him. Women and children
fled from the street in dismay, taking
refuge in yards and porches and behind

Last night crowd of miners had been
drinking freely in the back room of the
Golden Lion, telling yarns and spilin' for a
fight. They had no sooner shifted their
places from the tables 10 the bar than a
party of four stepped in TO have something.
The two parties were strangers 10 each

for two men to be rolling on one,

grabbed him by the throat, and while stop

Spoiled by Luxury.

Luxury and ease never bring out the
highest qualities in a mans character;
work and hardship are required for his
best development.
William II. Seward, it is said, once ran
away from college in a fit of anger at his
father, and went to teach school in a
southern state. After some months Sew
ard thought better of his college, was
reconciled to his father, and returned to
his studies. A classmate, one of the most
brilliant men in the college, took charge
of the southern school,
Years after Seward met this classmate,
who had married a rich southern lady, had
settled down on large plantation, and had
grown fat and lazy, doing nothing in the
way of study, and turning out a very COM
monplace man, without ambition or intel
lectual power. A fine scholar had beer
spoiled by a life of luxury.
Mr.. Seward congratulated himself on his
own escape from su oh an ignoble fate.

As We Want EN-, You Know.


If we only had things as we want 'em, you

The world wouldn't go so confoundedly slow,
For there's many skip,
And there's many slip,
And there's many flip,
And rip,
And dip,

If we only had deacons who wouldn't get dozy,

If drinkers weren't dry,

We'd all try
To see how unblushingly good we could grow,
Because we'd have things as we want EN-, you
know,
If only the world was built square, stead of
round,
If only hard sense could be made of mere sound,
IL we had lots of cash,
And similar trash,
H-without being RASH
We could mash
Like u flash
Any daughter of Eve when we cared to do so.
Then we'd sorter have things as we want 'em,
you know.
But when we get down to mere business base,
We find that we seem 80 have missed a fat
place.
The outlook is murk,
And we sigh like q Turk,
As there's no chance to shirk,
Or to Turk,
While VIC work

low,
Cause things isn't just as we want 'em, you

The exposition will be provided with
WHITEWATER for drinking purposes and
water for fire purposes-to an unlimited
extent. The plans to that end have
already been approved, and it is char
aeteristic of the magnitude OF the en-
terprise that even so relatively small de-
tail as this will necessitate an outlay of
somewhere in the neighborhood of two
hundred Thousand dollars. The manage
ment proposes TO lay the mains as an
addition 20 the present water works at
Hyde Park, and TO pay the city for every
gallon of water used, the measurements
being taken by meters. At the close of
the exposition it is thought that the city
can be induced TO buy the plant at good

She Bore Up Well.

An elderly and rather stout lady was not
long since riding in a train which was just
approaching the Forth bridge. She was
evidently unaecustomed 10 travelling, and
her constant fire of remarks TO whoever
would listen afforded not little amuse'
ment to those within hsaring, The old
lady was nervous about the bridge, of
which she had seen pictures, and which she
had made up her mind was not fully TO be
trusted, She kept inquiring when the train
would come to it, At last she was told that
the bridge in question was at hand.
"Well," the old lady said with pathos, ~
don't know whether we shall get over alive
or not, but If we don't it shall not be my
fault"
She settled into the corner Of the seat
with determined air and puckered UP
mouth, which were only less droll than the
general air of responsibility which brooded
over her. During the massacre of the bridge
