Scientific Calculations.

An electrical writer has calculated
that the firing Of small pistol sets
free about coo foot pounds Of energy,
while watch consumes about 1854, 00O,-
O00th Of q horsepower, the energy Of the
bullet being sufficient to keep the time
for two years. An Edison telephone
transmitter requires about ,000th Of the
energy In watch. It would therefore
be worked for 1000 years on the energy
exerted in the pistol. A lightning flash
Of $500, 900 volts and $4,000 lampheres,
lasting 1-21 ,000th of second, would run

The Reunion.

The teachers, as usual during normal,
held their reunion, Monday night. last.
The evenings entertainment consisted
OF sentimental and humorous solos,
quartetteS, guitar music. select reading,
declaiming, etc. The entertainment,
on the whole, was of very superior
character. Everything was good. Prof.
Rhodes solos were exceedingly popular.
They were rendered with an elegance
and expression that capture all who
listened. Prof. Kelley read four highly
appreciated selections from j. Whit
comb Riley. Miss Evans, one of the
students, from Lake CITY, rendered a
comical selection which was received
with favor. Last, but not least, we
must mention the choice guitar and Yo-
cal music of Miss Harris; one piece, es-
pecially, THE ship that never return
ed" was rendered with an expression
and skill that would have done justice
to any musical artist.
All who missed the reunion, missed a
positive treat. After the literary exer-
cises were closed. under the INJUNCTION
to be boys and girls again, the teachers
proceeded to make themselves merry by
various social games, which were only
adjourned with regret by the lateness
of the hour. The evening is one that
will be remembered as happy, joyful
and pleasant.
The teachers were also pleased to
note the presence of Rev. Archer, DIR.
Moore and wife, Mrs. Ellis, and other
appreciative friends in the city.

The Wheat CrOD.

Reports are somewhat conflicting in
regard to crops. Some estimate only
from three to five bushels, up the river.
The crop about Kiowa and Hazeltou is
very poor. Valley township reports a
fair crop. z. B. Cole says he has the
same number of acres he expected to
have. In the Kemp neighborhood,
about 124 bushels is reported by one au-
thority as the best. MIR. S. A. Hayes,
south of the city. had an excellent piece
if wheat. The best reports are from the
country Immediately south and west of

der is that there 10 any wheat at all.

Base Ball.

Friday, the patriotic spirit of Medi-
cine Lodge found vent in a game of
base ball. 1t was a day when it was
torture to sit down, torture to stand up,
torture to work, and torture to loaf; so
a large portion of the town, all the bar
bers included, took in the game, in lieu
of anything else inspiring, and the more
freely as there was no gate charges.
The cause of the game was a challenge
issued by the Medicine Lodge nine, to
the county at large. 1t was accepted
by another club, mostly from Hazelton,
but with help from Isabel.
The Medicine Lodge nine proved
their challenge given. with the skill to
back it. The score closed Al to 20 in
their favor. We extend the hand of
congratulation to the boys until they
get ambitious and run up against some
professionals, after which we will do
our utmost to console them.
The heat of the day was terrific, and
the dust more so; yet the national game
proved its time-honored attraction by
holding the large crowd from beginning
to end.

The news received here this morning
concerning the death Of C. II. Conrad,
of Danvlle. caused considerable talk.
Mr.. Conrad's brother at one time lived
here. The following dispatch from r CHI
mond this afternoon gives The full par
ticuars:
RIcuMoND, Va, June 23 --[Spccial i
c. II. Conrad left Danviile last night for
Richmond. His wife is now here in
delicate condition. This morning, a few
minutes before O'Clock, Merchant W eli
seger, of this place, saw Conrad sitting in
a smoking room OF the sleeper Mr.
Wciscger went into the toilet room and
remained there a few moments, and upon
his return missed Conrad. lie thought
nothing Of it, however, and knew moth
ing about the death until after his arrival
in Richmond. 1t is presumed that Con-
rad went on the rear platform to get
fresh air, and the rapidly moving train
going around a curve threw him off. The
train was late, making up time. The
body was found a mile south of Amelia
Court House, thirty eight miles from
Richmond
Major Patton, Boyken, Dibrell, Pleas
ants, and other well known Richmond
men left at 1910 for the scene of the ac-
cident. The remains are to be taken to
Danville. TINES.
A later dispatch from 7. D. Neal to
Capt j. S. Lockhart says that it was
purely accidental. He fell from the plat
form of the train, his bead striking a mile
post, crushing his skull.
Mr.. Conrad was we'll known and very
popular in Durham, where he had hosts
of friends who sincerely mourn his cruel
death. For the past eighteen months he
has been more closely identified with
North Carolina, having married Miss
Keogh, Of Greensboro, a daughter OF
Judge Thomas b. Keogh, and visited the
state at frequent intervals. His first wife
was Miss Holland, Of Danville, and by
This marriage he had five children, all
daughters, who survive him. He was be-
tween 50 and 50 years Of age, of big soul
generous nature and Genial manners
There was not a more popular man in
The city of Danville, nor in the entire
bright tobacco belt. With his magDiti
cent fortune he was foremost in all gOOC
works, and will be greatly missed in the
city where he had long been conspic
