THE CAMPAIGN IN CAROLINA.
Jarvis and Carr Address 1000 People In
CIeveIand-Others Speakers
Especial telegram to tho DIspatch.l

lopcCldl w tuD DlspAtShsI
SHELLEY, N. c., August s.-Two thousand
citizens of Cleveland county heard Mr..
Carr. Ex-Governor Jarvis, Congressman
Bower, and X. NJ. Furman speak on the Is
sues of thecampaign in Shelby to-day. The
speakers occupied over four hours with
out interruption, and the immense throng,
including many heretofore said TO be
Third-party men, stood out in the open
square and heard the speakers most atten-
lively. Cleveland is not going to sacrifice
the party of its first love.
Mr.. Carr's speech was very plain, but
able and effective presentation of pure
Democratic principles, which greatly
pleased his friends of the Alliance. and
Governor Jarvlss was the best his friends
ever heard him deliver. Mr.. Bowers
speech was last, but for an hour he held
the crowd. and his effort was received
with marked enthusiasm.
STRONG APPEAL.
Mr.. Furman made manly and effective
appeal TO the people. He said that he had
understood that there was some talk
against him and another candidate on the
State ticket because of alleged expressions
that they were said 10 have made against
the Farmers Alliance. These charges
were absolutely untrue. He had never at
tackled the Farmers Alliance OF its princi-
pies. but had endorsed both as Democratic.
but whether the people believed these re.
ports or not. he besought them not TO sacri-
nee the Democratic ticket. He could him
self stand defeat, but the people could not
afford to have the Democratic party de-
feated. Mr.. Furman's illustrations were
fortunate, and his speech most happy
one.

The Season. Offering Of Fans.

Fans have been futtering in women's
hands for SO many centuries that it
seems almost incredible that each
season should bring forth distinct
novelty in these dainty articles. But
manufacturers have fashion of rising
to occasions. and the fans this spring
bear witness to their fertility of re-
source. Pretty gauze fans show an
applique of smaller silk fans exquisite
ly painted, sometimes with flowers.
sometimes with birds. the coloring
always effective. Spangled butterflies
in silk have also been applied to gauze,
and new form of silk has been placed
on Grape and interspersed with an ap-
plique of lace. Some of the ribs are
now made half of feathers and half of
silk which is frayed out at the edges.
An old fashion has been revived, that
of fan which in one direction opens
to fall to pieces. Painted satin fans are
coming in again, and many of the ivory
and bone frames are copies of the Louis
Nv period. Double Grape and single
gauze and close ribs are mingled. and
some of the frameworks are heavy and
elaborateiy carved. White gauze. black
gauze and black lace are intermingled,
and silver and gold lace applied to
gauze displays graceful figures rem
dered in the same fashion or else
painted. Hand painted fans are more
beautiful than they have ever been

"WHO DID WHAT ?"
The Story OF Remark That Became II By-
word.

WoTn.
Innocent gossip with no malice in it
has often a charm for the best of peo-
pie. as indeed why should it not? The
person who takes little interest in the
loves and hates. fortunes and misfor-
tunes of his neighbors is far more likely
to be the possessor of cold heart than
of superior mind: but there is such 4
thing as being too inquisitive.
In the days when our Erandmothcrs
were girls there came occasionally into
the family of good deacon with nine
children village dressmakcr of the
kind immortalized by Mrs. Stowe in
'Thc Minister'S Wooing."
She was neither as delightful nor as
daring as Miss Prissv. but she had all of
that good woman's interest in other
peoples affairs. and always looked for
ward with particular pleasure to the
week during which she cut and fitted
for the deacon's girls. knowing that his
house was in some sort social center,
where she was likely to hear plenty of
fresh news and entertaining anecdotes.
