Love rar Nartn Caror,na.

The Raleigh News Observer truly
says that it is not often that a young
man travels four thousand miles to
college, but the thing has just hap
pened. Pat Winston, who lives in
Spokane Falls, Washington, has a
son { Alexander) who has just entered
the University at Chapel Hill No
man who has lived thirty years in
North Carolina can ever cease to
love her and her people. So Pats
heart turns lovingly to his native
State, and especially TO the Uiniver-
sity, where he lived the happiest
years of his life and achieved splendid
honors as a scholar and speaker.
Young Mr. Winston spent several
days in Winston last week visiting
old friends and acquaintance. The
family, it will be remembered, were
residents of this city prior to the
removal to their present home.

SLEEPING WITH a BABY.

An Awful Nuisance, and Yet His Victim
Can't Help But Love Him.
The laughable experience, given in
one of the daily papers. of a man who
has ''slept with baby and lived
through it," will strike responsive
chord in the breasts of those who have
passed a night with ono of the little
wriggling, tossing morsels of humanity.
The baby, says the experienced one.
If he happens to be lusty little fellow of
eight or nine months, will decline to
stay covered, and will also decline to
allow you to keep yourself covered. He
indicates his wishes in this direction bv
keeping his little pink heels going all
night, good part of the time ON YOUR
back. He will also insist on living
"crosswise, ''end-wise," ''cat-a-cor-
nered," "bias,' or in any other position
but that which will give you few
Inches of room in the bed and a few
minutes sleep. His infantile needs
begin to manifest themselves about one
O'Clock in the morning, at which witch
ing hour you will go laundering around
in the dark for drink of water.
He will howl steadily and cheerfullv
from two to three o'clock, and will kick
you furiously between the shoulder
blades with every howl. 1t will not be
OF any use for you to pat him tenderly
and sing out: There, there He is
right there and knows it. and intends
that you shall know il. 1t is of no use
to say, CO. xingly: '.What does papa's
baby want" Papa's baby doesn't want
anything but to howl, and he is crafty
ing that amiable desire to the utmost.
1t is of no use to add to your Judgment
day list of enormities by swearing.
And if your wife has been calmly pas
sive through it all she will develop an
amazing degree of spirit if you dare Law
the weight of your finger in anger on
that poor, dear, innocent darling
sweetness" He will squirm all night
as though he were first cousin to an an
gle worm. He will journey around
all over the bed, both under and
on top of the coverings. You are
no sooner asleep than one of his
moist little heels is planted firmly in
your nose or in your mouth, and, later
on, with childhood'sscorn of decency and
decorum,- he will sit astrid> your neck
and grow green and purple with raae
when gently made to sit elsewhere.
Should he fail out of bed and veil lopd
enough to be heard all over YOUR ward
your wife will say that she firmlv.be-
ieves that you pushed him ont and that
you arc not lit to be father, anyhow.
An animated dialogue of purely per
sonal and private nature viii follow
this remark.
But when the roistering little chap
finally ''snuggles up" to you and goes
to sleep with one of his velvety little
cheeks close to your own, AMI one OF
his warm, soft arms around your neck.
you find your heart growing very soft
and tender toward him, and you would
single-handed wage war against hos,
or lay down your life for the love q,

MANGLED TOlLERS.

Three Men Killed and Three Fatally
Hurt by Falling Wall at Jonesburo,
Tenn.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn, April 23.-Three
men were instantly killed at Jonesboro
Friday afternoon by the collapse of
brick wall in the courthouse. The
county authorities were having some
new vaults put in and the walls had
been nearly completed, being about IS
feet high. Seven men were on the wall
when it gave way without moments
notice. Six men were carried down
with it and buried under the de bris.
When they were removed three were
dead. They were: Bruce Eldridge, Frank
Maynard and James Wilson. Three
others were badly hurt, and it is learned
all will die. The contractor, j. j.
Adams, who: was also ON the wall,
saved himself by swinging to a pole in
midair until rescued. The collapse was
probably due to the absence of a tic
wall and too generally faulty construc-
tion:. Suits will be brought against the
contractor and the county for damages
by the families of the dead men.
