DR.. Briggs and his opponents both scored at
the meeting of the Presbytery in this city yes
terday The much talked-of professors vic
tory was won in the adoption of resolution
declaring that no further action by the General
Assembly is necessary in reference to ipstruc-
ton in the theological seminaries. The con-
servatives, after their defeat OH this point, raj
lied their forces and voted down the Briggs
proposal regarding new Creed. Unfortunate

General Assembly will not represent the fairly
evenly divided sentiment which those two votes
disclose.
The conference between Senate and House
committees on the Chinese Exclusion bill has
resulted in q manner that will give satisfaction
to fair and liberal minded citizens. The Geary
bill, which the House passed. was offensive and
extreme in providing for the absolute exclusion
of all Chinese, of whatever rank or calling, ex-
cept those coming here as diplomatic or con-
sular agents. The Senate naturally refused to
iadorse such harsh and unnecessary policy.

ENGLANO'S COAL FAMINE.
One Hundred Thousand More Miners Stop
work-Half a Million Now Out.

One Thousand More Miners Stop
Work-Half a Million Now Out.
LONDON, March 13.-The coal strike is
spreading. To-day the miners of Lin
colnshire quit work. This will make
necessary the shutting down of the APP
pleby Iron Company, the North Lincoln
Iron Company, the rockingham Steel
and Iron Company, the Trent Works,
the Reborn Hill Iron and Coal Company
and several other large firms in the North
Lincolnshire iron trade. The furnaces
of Sonth Lincolnshire will be damped
down, and the manufacture of pig iron in
that district will practically cease.
By the action of to-day at least 100000
men will be added to the great army al
ready out Of work. Reports from Shelf
field, Birmingham, Manchester and Leeds
show a low stock of fuel, which must
result in the steppage of work in the
factories. The price of coal is expected
to make another jump to, morrow, so
that even private families will suffer
severely.
The Miners Federation held meetings
to day throughout Yorkshire, Lancashire,
Derbyshire, Cheshire and North Wales.
The organization claims to have money
enough to keep the men out four months,
if necessary. Five hundred and seventy
thousand miners are now out.

TOBACCO TALKS.
Rev. Alex Walker Gives His Views GU the
Tobacco Market.


The weather being cool and unfayor-
able for handling the leaf, receipt are
not so large as they have Oeen for sew
eral weeks past, but Notwithstanding
the cold dry weather all the warehouses
are having very respectable sales and
very satisfactory TO the seller. The
quality of the offerings are very much as
they have been for two months pa t
and values seem to be very much fixed.
There has been but little change in
prices for m 1t is true that some
days the market does not seem to have
so much life as it does other days, and
the bidding is not so rapid as it is other
days, yet when the auctioneer knocks
down he has got there all the same. To
sum up the whole thing it may be safely
stated that the market is remarkably
firm and prices paid give very uniform
satisfaction. To say every man that
sold was satisfied it would be a mistake
for some men are never satisfied, it
would be an impossibility, therefore we
do not expect it. We can and do say
that tobacco is selling we'll and at prices
that ought to satisfy.

MEEIING.

The meeting called to take place at
the Marlboro House, tomorrow morning,
should not be overlooked by the ladies.
AS heretofore stated, the object is to
devise ways and means for the erection
of a suitable building for North Carolina,
at the exposition grounds in Chicago.
This work has been specially set apart
for the ladies, and we have no doubt that
their efforts will be crowned with success.
The plans for the building have not yet
been submitted, but it is proposed that the
pattern should be taken from what was
known in olden times as '-GovFRNOR
TRYoN's Palace" in New Berne. 1t might
appear to some that it is too early to take
action in the premises but this is not so.
There is much to be done 10 place North
Carolina in a proper position, and many
of the states are now far advanced in the
matter of preparation. We hope the
meeting tomorrow will be largely atten-
ded and that such work may be mapped
out as will start the movement in the
most earnest manner.-Raleigh Visitor.
The best thing that the meeting tonight
could do would be to devise ways and
means to pay for a respectable building.
The GLOBES tip is to raise at least an ad-
ditional $25 900.

BROUGHT TWO NEW WIVES.

Gerard Had One Here-To1d the others
America Was a PoIygamous Land.
New YORK, N. Y, March 1j.-Gerardi
D'Anglus, a handsome and thrifty young
Italian, has a pretty wife and baby at
No. 1873 Mott street. Yesterday, after a
"business trip" to his native land, he re-
turned on steamship California with
Maria Maroni and Teresa GENTLY, two
young women who confidently expected
to become his second and third wife in
America, a land where, he had positively
assured them, polygamy was a recog-
nized and lawful social condition.
Gerardi's legal wife heard of her hus-
bands plan through a letter from a
friend in Italy. She didn't propose to
have her exclusive rights thus infringed
upon. She hurried to Colonel Weber,
and arrangements were made to give the
new corners a warm reception. They es-
capped, however, and it was only with the
assistance of Captain Simeone of the
Italian society that they were located.
Then Gerard looked glum. The girls
wept and protested innocence of crimi-
nal intent. He will be prosecuted. They
will be sent back. Gerard is worth sew
eral thousand dollars.

TEAR THEM OUT.

The tragedy of to-day, which was only
a prelude with no sad epilogue to follow,
should suggest several things.
First and most important, the fire box
keys should not be given to Tom, DICK
and HARRY. They should be in the hands
of those who have judgment enough to
know whether a house is on fire; whether
a match has been lighted or a chimney is
burning out.
In a city of this size there is no need of
undue excitement when a fire breaks
loose, and there should be some assurance
to the boys who take their life in their
own hands that there was really necessity
for it.
Young TERRELL, the unfortunate
driver, will recover, physicians say, but
his position was perilous, and his escape
from permanent injury was absolutely
marvellous.
Hundreds Of men who viewed the over
turned hose cart and who saw the driver
beneath the heavy wheel would have
wagered their last copper that a dead
man was pinioned there.
The city authorities should see that the
box keys are in the hands of those who
know enough to call for help.
There is no use to place human lives
in jeopardy and alarm a community be-
cause a city job has been abused.
Another thing to which the authorities
who have the care and welfare of city
and citizens in their functions should do
is to either cause the street car tracks to
be removed or compel those who enjoy
the use of our streets for the unused
to grade their road bed.
The track has been practically aban-
doned and the city has no authority to
allow such distractions on the streets of
Durham.
If the tracks are to be used, then it be-
comes the duty Of those using them to
grade them, and keep them up.
1t is always after the horse is stolen
that the stable is locked.
But from this case-it! the evidence
which was Sc strongly pointed out at the
noon hour, and which, happily resulted
so fortunately-the city council should
profit, and do its common duty.

Health has its weight. We
cannot go far above or below
our healthy weight without
disturbing health. We can
not keep health and lose our
weight.
It is fat that comes and
goes. Too much is burden
some too little is dangerous.
Health requires enough
fat for daily use and a little
more for reserve and COM
fort. That keeps us plump.
The result is beauty-the
beauty Of health.
A little book on CAREFUL
LIVING shows the importance
of keeping your healthy
weight. We send it free.

ANOTHER SERMON.
A Colored Man Ground Up at Greensboro
Saturday.

A Colored Man Ground Up at Greensboro
Saturday.
The Workman, of Greensboro, says: On
Saturday night about 8 O'Clock the atten,
ton of some of the yard employees of the
C. F. & Y. V. railroad was attracted by
the groans Of some one in distress.
Upon examination it was discovered
that a negro by the name of Daniel Snipes
had been run over by the train at a point
on the c. F. & y. V. yard near the Ser
geant foundry. The train had passed
over both legs zeal the ankle and his feet
and ankle bones were crushed into a mass.
Drs. Glenn, Michaux and Tate were
called on and amputation was decided on
and On yesterday morning it was success
fully performed.
Snipes was under the influence of LIQUOR
when he was run over and could tell
nothing about the accident upon Satur-
day night. On yesterday he said some
one knocked him down and left him on
the track. He said he saw the engine
coming, but did not have the strength to
get out of the way.

Western Free Lance, Marion, N. CT
If there is One thing we detest it is
making excuses, but in this instance we
feel that a reason for our delay should
be given our subscribers.
Our printer who had been drunk for
about two weeks came up Monday morn
ing sober 10 get out the paper. He
worked until Wednesday dinner then
went off on another drunken spree with
out giving US a minutes notice. He left
the paper badly behind and in such shape
as for us not to be able to get it out on
time. This is not the first time The
Free Lance has been delayed by the
worthlessness of a drunken printer.
We had to be out on the court grounds
or we could have pulled the paper out on

with 1890 and net increase of produc-

demonstrates that of the SO industries

MAGAZINE NOTICES.

The September Scribner contains the
unusual number of seven deliberately
illustrated articles. Ex-Minister John
Bigelow, one of the trustees of Mr.. Til
denis will, publishes in this number of
the Magazine, under the title The Tilden
Trust Library; What Shall 1t Be? the
facts concerning Mr.. Tilden's wishes as
to the. details of the plan, and also most
important proposal for still carrying out
large part of it by the erection of a
great library building in the very centre
of New York The Last of the Buffalo,
Mr.. George Bird Grinnell' siarticle in this
feeling, and recalls with picturesque
vividness the days when the buffalo were
found on the great plains in unnumbered
thousands. Miss Isabel F. Hapgood
writes of the Nevsky Prospekt in the
sixth article on The Great Streets of the
World, and gives very clear impression
of its characteristic aspects, and the his
torical and personal associations of Rus
sia's chief city. MI. w. G. Brownell,
whose book, French Traits, was received
with SO much favor, contributes the first
of three articles on French Art, all to be
illustrated. Mr.. Charles F. Lummis, who
has lived number of years at the Pueb-
10 of Isleta, writes with sympathy and
enthusiasm of these Indians in an article
on The Indian who is not Poor. In close
relation with other practical forms of
philanthropy, which have appeared in
the magazine, is Mrs. Frederic X. Jones s
paper on The Education of the Blind.
The Historic Moment this month is The
Attainment of the Highest North, by
Sergeant now Lieutenant, D. L. Brain
ard, of the Greedy Expedition, who with
Lieutenant Lockwood and the Eskimo
Tholip reached the most northarn point
ever touched by man.
The September Forum, which begins
volume fourteen, brings a table OF con-
tents of more than usual timeliness.
For instance, prominent place is given
to The Lesson of Homestead: A Rem.
edy for Labor Troubles, by Chauncey +.
Black, of Pennsylvania, the remedy he
proposes being the Incorporation OF la
Dor organizations precisely as organiza-
tions of capital are incorporated. Mr..
Black writes with great sympathy for the
workingmen's side Of the contest. The
political articles, which have been an es-
pecial feature of the Forum, include an
analysis of the Alarming Proportion OF
Venal Voters, primarily in Connecticut,
by Prof. j. j. McCook, which is the first
effort that has been made to get at the
number of the yenal and to analyze the
