Why Men Defer Marriages.

The habits of modern young men are
antagonistic to that prudence and prep
aration which make it possible for them
to marry at twenty-five. There are
many exceptions of course, but it may
be safely said that a vast number of the
young men who live in our time fill their
spare hours with expensive ~luxuries. 1t
costs them a great deal to dress, and
still more to keep up their social engage
ments. In a score Of ways they accus-
tom themselves to ways of life that
leave nc margin between income and
outgo. This having gone on until they
are twenty-five it then calls for more
resolution than many of them command
to begin the sacrifices which accompany
the saving of money. Without money
they cannot marry.
Not a few greatly exaggerate what it
should take two sensible young people to
begin life on, and hastily conclude that
it would be impossible, on an income of
81 600, to start in comfort. So they put
off marriage until after thirty, or do not
marry at all; and it is we'll that such
men should remain single. We do not
need any such weak fiber in the coming
generation.-John L. Payne in Ladies
Home Journal.

The reason for COLONEL ALBRIGHT's
running a side show at the Raleigh fair,
passing as the fat man to see whom
it cost a quarter, has been explained by
the colonel. He says the republicans
were short of campaign funds in North
Carolina, and that he resorted to this
method to raise money to run the party
machinery. The colonel is generally cor
rect in his statements, but if he is not
trying to hoodwink Us, the thirdites must
have bled his party heavier than has been
given out.

THE NENT POET LAUREATE.

Since the death of TENNYsON, the CUES
ton of who would be the next poet lau-
reate has been generally discussed by
literary people everywhere. The New
\ ork Sun disposes Of the matter in a way
to leave COLONEL GLADSTONE no longer
in doubt as to his duty. 1t says:
In the discussion about the next poet
laureate, which broke out somewhat pre-
maturely before the last wearer of the
laurel had been laid in the grave, some
facts connected with the history of the
institution seem to have been overlooked.
These facts are that the sovereign has
long ceased TO designate the occupan of
the post, that the appointment is prac-
tically made by the prime minister, and
that he, in his selection, accepts the gen
eral verdict Of people OF taste and judg-
ment. Moreover, the latest and govern
ing preCedents demonstrate that the lau
reateship should be formally offered to
the poet of acknowledged prominence,
without any prearranged understanding
as to his acceptance of it, and finally, that
no a%dulatory functions are necessarily at
ttched TO the occupation of the place. If
these facts are considered, it will be re-
cognized that much of the discussion
which has taken place with regard to
TENNYsON's successor is entirely irrele.
want.
The place Of poet laureate is nomi-
nally in the gift of the lorI chamberlain,
who himself, although ostensibly a court
official, is really a political officer, who
loses his post upon a change of minis
tiers. So far as the appointment of the
laureate is concerned, the lord chamber
lain is the mere mOuthpiece Of the prime
minister. That was demonstrated on the
memorable occasion when WORDS
WORTH, to whom the laureateship had
been offered, received a letter from SIR
ROBERT PEEL, pressing him TO recon-
slider his intended refusal. In accord
ance, therefore, with the only custom to

asserts a Chestnut street merchant. "In

100 the solid merchants, bankers and
millionaires appear, and then up to 3 or

are in the majority, mingled with the

which any attention need be paid, it is
not QUEEN VICTORIA, or any court Off
cial, but MR.. GLADSTONE who will desig-
nate TENNYsoN'S successor. Nor has
England ever had a prime minister bet
ter qualified by taste and knowledge to
discharge this particular duty. No n
better knows what England's opinion is
with regard to the relative merits Of its
still living poets, for hat opinion he has
largely helped 10 make.
IF Mr.. GLADSTONE does his duty, he
will follow the example of the great
statesman of whom he was long the ad-
mirer and disciple. He will give to the
foremost poets living in England the
chance of accepting or declinging the
post of poet laureate, and, lest their re-
publican or socialist opinions should
deter them from taking an honor which
belongs TO them, MR.. GLADSTONE, like
SIR ROBERT PEEL, will assure them that
nothing shall be required of them. This
means, of course, that the laureateship
should be ~consecutively offered to AL
GERNON CHARLES SwINBURNE and Will
LIAM NORRIS, and that. if the post should
lie refused by both of them, no appoint
ment should for the present be made
For, among the living poets of England,
SwINBURNE and WILLIAM MORRIS stand
alone; there are none nearest and none

The Slow Tortoise.

The sluggish motions of common land
t~ortoises or turtles" lead many persons
to underrate their intelligence. This
ridiculous slowness," however, arises
from the animals peculiar structure,
and is no proof of dizziness.
The legs of a turtle look more like
clutches than legs. And though the
feet form a strong graphing apparatus
for pulling away a heavy weight, who
could expect swiftness from such toes?
Some large ~tortOises nevertheless MAKE
long journeys with more rapidity than
might seem possible.
In the Galapagos islands turtles were
found by M. Darwin able to travel four
miles a day-a rate Of progress not de-
spicable in creatures provided with such
legs; creatures, too, sc heavy that six
men were often required to lift one of
them.-YOuth's Companion.

KEEP UP II LICK.
It is conceded on all sides that a good
lumber-yard would pay in Durham. Is
there not some man who has a friend
who would like to come into this city
and embark in a business that would pay
from the very start? Well, if there is,
that citizen should write his friend, and
urge him to come in with a lumber-yard.
There will be a large amount Of building
going on from this time until ten or
twenty years. These land companies
are bringing people here. There is a
crying demand for more dwelling-houses.
Mr.. r. /. ROGERS says that if some CAPT
talist will build the houses he will guar
antee to rem them. This demand will
be supplied. If home capitalists will not
build, some foreign capital will find its
way here and go into the dwelling house
business. This means that a large
lumber yard is necessary.
There are going TO be new manufac.
turing enterprises. There will be many
new institutions go up in Durham be-
fore the next year is gone.
Some people do not see how this will
come about-but the world is growing
larger-that is, the number of people in
it is increasing.
The other day they shipped from
America to Jerusalem locomotives to run
a railroad in that rocky and barren
country. Everything is expanding. The
North and West is crowded. The people
are coming South. They are obliged to
go somewhere, and We have the best in
ducements in the world. And Durham
will receive her share, anyway. If the
live men of the town will work all to-
gether, with a long pull and a strong
pull, as they say at sea, we will receive
more than our share. Will they do it?
The GLOBE believes that they will.
To-day there are five lumber yards and
they are all doing business, and big bus
mess.
There are manufacturing establish
ments going up; many have been set in
motion during the last two years, and
when it comes to talking about dwelling
houses there have been, of all kinds, a
thousand erected.
There are three brick yards, all using
machinery and still brick must be ship
ped in many times, and viewed from any
stand point, the indications are most fa-
vorable for a still greater growth.
THE GLOBE wrote it well, and it knew
what it was talking about-and those
who thought we were talking just to
read what we wrote, can go see for them
selves.
