CONCERNING CALAMITIEs.

1t will be a terrible calamity, SO a few
ANTI-CLEvELAND fellows figure it all
out, if GROVER is made the nominee OF
his party!
Won't it all be terrible!
We can think of nothing so terrible
80 absolutely and SO astoundingly awful
as the ex-sheriff's nomination, 1t means
that COLONEL Polk the cheap vender
of a cheaper diphtheria medicine and
farmer joe daniels who exist on state
steals will not support him!
With such wonderful and rousing
calamities looming up before him and
behind, Mr.. CLEVELAND should not at
tempt to run or to walk or TO get there
by any means.
If the worthless mentioned are to defeat
a man who has proven himself equal to
all emergencies; who has shown that he
had a principle and that the principle
was greater than himself-if GROVER
CLEVELAND is to be opposed by joe dan
iels and DIPHTHERIA MEDICINE POLK
Well he should know enough TO get
out Of the way.
In some of the logic which humanity
spurns-even in admiration among bull
lies and braggarts, the fellow who will
not play unless he can be "it," counts
for no little something.
Bet if all that is in the way in North
Carolina is Printer Steal daniels and
DIPHTHERIA Polk
Well, CLEVELAND has it his way, and
it will be a walkaway.
The boys are not just now directing
the policy of any party.

Mosquitoes.

1t is told of a great author that he was
wont to amuse himself by jumping over

who, as the following shows, amuses
himself by weighing mosquitoes:

~luitoes of this locality on q sensitive
balance. The average weight of one
mosquito was 1.27 milligrams-that

An AerOnaut's Experience,

A story is told of the thrilling ex
oerience Of a veteran aeronaut with q
oald eagle and a Connecticut constable.
During a recent ascension, when at a
height of 5000 feet, the balloonist was
attacked by the eagle. A desperate fight
ensued, which resulted in the eagle being
killed. Half f%ainting, the aeronaut
descended to terra frma. When he had
recovered he hunted for and found the
lead bird. While he was examining his
prize the constable came along and ar
:ested him for killing the bird, for which
,~ffense, he claimed, a fine Of $50 is i'm
posed. The aeronaut, it is related, had
more difficulty in escaping punish
nent than-he had in killing the bird

don, Liverpool, Glasgow, HaVre and Ant
werp. The magnitude which this bust
ness has already attained is shown in the
fact that the government report of the
value of foreign exports from the United
States for October puts the total from all
southern ports at $44, 100,G 900, against
sos, 800, 900 from the rest OF the country,
the shipments from the South being over
AZ per cent of the total for the month.
The tendency Of Western trade to seek
foreign outlets through southern ports is
being daily impressed upon the country,
and while Newport News and Norfolk,
with their regular steamer lines, are
making heavy shipments of grain, -four,
provisions, lumber, ETC., the more south
erly Atlantic ports are also advancing
rapidly, and New Orleans and Galveston
are handling a big grain and general
business, the shipments of wheat from
the former city for the four months ended
October 81 having been $4,000 bushels
against 291 600 bushels for the CORE
spending time last year. This growth of
the South's foreign trade is destined to
have a wide-reaching influence upon the
prosperity and progress of this section.
Added to the steady industrial advance
ment which is going on, it means that
the manufacturing interests are to be
supplemented by great commercial cities
with their immense traffic. The indus
trial growth goes on steadily, and among
the enterprises reported in this weeks
issue Of the Manufacturers Record are
the opening of the great million-dollar
canal at Columbia, S. c., IN which work
has been in progress for so many years,
and the decision of the New England
capitalists, who have secured control of
it, to commence at once on building a
$500, 900 cotton mill, to be followed by |
others; electric, light works, Ellicott
City, Md; the sale of coal land in West
Virginia to Chicago capitalists for $685.

the others, which are very close,

No Doctors Bills in Japan.

San Francisco Chronicle.
A Japanese doctor never thinks of
asking poor patient for fee. There
is a prOverb among the medical fra
ternity of Japan, "When the twin
enemies, poverty and disease, invade
home, then he who takes aught
from that home, even though 1t be
given him, Is a rObber."
"Often," said DR.. Matsumoto, "a
doctor will not only give his time and
his meditines freely to the sufferer,
bat he will also give him money to
tide over his dire necessities. Every
physician has his own dispensary
and there are very few apothecary
shops in the empire.
"When rich man calls in physi-
clan he does not expect that he will
be presented a bill for medical ser
vices. In fact no such thing as q doc
tors bill is known in Japan, although
nearly all the modern practices areia
vogue there. The doctor never asks
for his fee The strict honesty of the
people does not make this necessary.
When he Is through with a patient a
present is made TO him of whatever
sum the patient or mis- friends may
deem to be just compensation. The
doctor Is supposed to smile, take the
fee, bow and thank his patron"
