P. f. Gordon, a colored man about
fifty years of age, whose skin has been
turning from black to white for the
past fifteen years, has returned to
Winston from High Point. Gordon
says that he was born and raised in
Petersburg, Va. There is now not
single black spot on his body. The
only marks left to show that he is a
member of the African race, are on
the back of his neck.
The case is a remarkable one and
excites the curiosity of every person
whom Gordon meets.

MRS. LEASES VAPORINGS.
She Advises The KanSanS to Vote For
Harrison
And EVEN DROP GENERAL WEAVER! !

III Voting for Weaver Would Help
Cleveland She Says She Would
Rather the Kansans Would Sup~
port Harrison-Her Words Create
a Great Sensation in the State.
NEW YORK, Oct IA special to
The Time, from Topeka, Kas., says:
The sensation of the day in Kansas
is an interview with Mrs. Lease who
accompanied General Weaver through
the Southern States on his campaign
ing tour. She recites indignities that
they were subjected to and declares
that if vote for Weaver is in reality
vote for Cleveland in this State, her
desire is that the populists will scrtch
their tickets and vote for the Harri-
son electors.
Mrs. Lease is next to Jerry Simp-
son, the strongest leader of the Kan
Sas populists and her expressed wishes
have caused great CONSERVATION, not
only in her own party but among the
democrats. She comedies every
Southern State to Cleveland"

This is what Gen. Sickles said of
Mr.. Cleveland's pension record at
Utica, n. Y, October ), 1888: "They
charge that he has vetoed a good many
pension bills. So he has. | have read
his views. | am soldier. | love my
soldiers. Had l been President and a
Congress had passed such bills for my
soldiers, | should have vetoed every
one of them, too. They were mostly
all frauds and shams, and | had no
frauds under me. Any right-minded
man, sworn to discharge his duty,
would have signed the vetoes as Presi-
dent Cleveland did"

North Carolina Poetry.

The poet, Tennyson, was in the

The mere fact that the withdraw OF
81 600, 900 in gold from the Treasury
by Heidelbach, IckeIheimer y Co., on
presentation Of that amount Of silver
certificates should provoke discussion
indicates anything but a solid and sub
start al financial system. In ordinary
conditions the withdrawal Of five times
that amount Of gold from the Treasury
vaults would cause little comment.
Of course, it would 'be impossible "a
make serious run upon the Govern
ment gold reserve without the cooper
ton Of the banks which hold q large
share Of the silver certificates. II
would be bad policy m the banks e
encourage movement which, if sue
cessful, would shake their own credit
as we'll as that Of the Government.

The whole trouble about reciprocity
with Canada is that the Protectionists
in control ofegovernment on both sides
of the line desire to maintain the ex-
isting tariff warfare. When liberal
policy prevailed in the United States
and Canada in 1858 there was no diff
Guilty in negotiating treaty of reci-
procity that was advantageous in both
countries. The Protectionist organs
of this country loudly inveigh against
the narrow and illliberal policy Of Can
ada, and the Government organs of
Canada retort in the same strain. They
are both telling the truth about each
other; and they are both engaged in a
game Of deception in pretending that
they desire a more liberal policy of
trade between the countries. Such a
policy never will be inaugurated until
the advocates of commercial restric-
trion and tariff spoliation shall have
been swept from power ON both sides
of the st. Lawrence.

While processing with ostentatious
cant the utmost repuganee for the dan
gerous and destr tctiye doctrines Of the
Farmers Alliance, the Republicans are
doing all that lies in their power to
keep the Alliance on its feet in the
Southern states. Republican contri-
buttons Of motley sustain the ALI
ance organization. Republican
olfice-holdefs in the South counsel
with the Alliance leaders, and Re-
publican voters are instructed to
vote for Alliance candidates. Con-
sentative citizens throughout the coun-
try who have just reason to dread the
march Of. the Socialistic principles of
the Farmers Alliance demagogues
should not fail to take note Of this UNI
scrupulous coalition. Without Repub-
lican encouragement and assistance
the so-ealled Peoples party would
soon sink into a helpless corglomera-
tion of political cranks.

Freight Shipments from Chicago.

Freight Shipments from Chicago
The statement of east-bound shipments
from Chicago last week shows a slight fall
ing off as compared with those of the pre-
vious week. The entire movement of dead
freight by all lines amounted TO 50 SIS tons,
against 92.913 for the week previous and
e.. 694 for the same period last year. What
are called the weak lines still managed to
get the bulk of the business. the Chicago&
Grand Trunk heading the list with 1851
tons. closely followed by the Chicago IL
Erie. which took IL. O9O tons. The Big Four,
which can hardly be considered direct
competitor, took more than the Lake Shore
or either OF the Pennsylvania lines
Through shipments of flour. grain and
provisions by the lines in the Central Traf-
fic Association amounted to 1881 tons,
against IS. IA for the preceding week, O de-
crease of 8. 1893 tons. ana against 30,S35 for
the corresponding week last year. an in
crease of 11.4l6 tons. Here again the Grand
Trunk echpsed every individual compet-
itor. carrying 80 per cent. OF the entire
business, while the three Vanderbilt lines

AIR.SHIP RUN WITH STEAM
Company incorporated to Manufacture
Young Walter MERGERS Invention.
Raised and Lowered by Revolving Pans-Bal.
loon Idea Done Away With-Model Under
Lock and hey Till the Money Is In.

The Brightwood Aerial Navigation Com
pany filed articles of incorporation yester-
day with the Secretary of State. The
capital stock is $500. and the officers are:
President. Boyd NJ. Ralston; secretary. II.
f. Negley; treasurer, Miles NJ. Reynolds.
The inventor of the machine is w. A.
Mercer, who IS yet III ais nineteenth year,
and has been at work with his idea for eigh {
years. He was. until within few months.
u machinist at Brightwood. His father
is a retired river steamboat captain, and
lives at Cincinnati. The model of the air
ship is under lock and key at Cincinnati.
His mother holds Tho key until letters pat
ent are granted and the company demon
strates its faith by paying up the capital
stock. which has not yet been done.
This air-shlp 10 C novelty, IL is said by
those interested, in that it discards alto
gether the balloon theory and the use of
electricity, which have made all other air
ships impracticable. The lifting power and
the prOpelling power in MERGERS ship are
the same, nothing more or less thar
common steam, generated IN an aluminium
engine. The machine is raised by six re-
vOlving fans similar to those seen in res
taurants. They are supported there from
each end of tho ship. They make six hun
dred revolutions minute. and as the rare
flying air requires. this speed can be in
creased to $50 revolutions The propellers
are at the rear end, and can give, it is said,
a speed of from forty to sixty-fve miles an
hour.
In case of storm the inventor claims he
can simply start the lifting fans and rise
above 1T. He can avoid dangerous winds
in the same way. The machine. with en-
gine, boiler. ETC., seventy-hve-pOund dy-
namo for four electrie-lights. tools. ETC.,
will weigh only $50 pounds. The length of
the ship is twenty-four feet. Two swing
ing flaDges or wings suspended from the
keel of the ship separate on a longitudinal
hinge as the ship lowers thus giving buoy
