Holds on to his Land.

RA1BraH, N. c., July 14.-It will be
remembered that Vanderbilt recently
purchased 5000 acres Of land in the west
ern portion Of this State, adjoining the
tract on which he is erecting the magnifi-
cent million.dollar palace, where he pro-
poses to spend his summers and enter
Tain his friends. This latter tract he will
convert into game preserve.
After the New York millionaire had
purchased all the surrounding property
be struck an old negro named Uncle
Jerry" Collins, who drives dray In
Asheville, and who also owns four
teen acres of land right in the
midst of what is now the Vanderbilt
tract.
Vanderbilt offered the old darkey big
price for his land, but he declined 70 sen
unless the mar of money would pay him
$500 more than he had offered. This was
800 times more than the land was worth
to any one else, and 10 Vanderbilt refused
to pay the price.
Soon after, however, he concluded he
would rather submit to the extorhon
than to have the negro living right IN the
heart of his property, and 80 he sent an
agent to pay the SUM demanded. Uncle
Jerry had in the meantime "studied over
the matter" and refused the money-de'
clined to sell at all.
Vanderbilt's agent pleaded and threat
ened in vain. Then they had the old
mans lot fenced in, but of course are
compelled to give him an outlet. And 30
the matter stands. Uncle Jerry jocularly
remarks that it has been tho one great
desire of his life 10 live in an aristocratic
neighborhood, and now that he Is tho
nearest neighbor to one OF the richest
to sell out and move into less preten-
tious locality:
Some day Vanderbilt will offer that old
man enough money for those measly
fourteen acres Of mountain land to "set
him up" for life. And what aggravates
the case is the fact that "Unole Jerry"
seems to know Washington Post.

a few days ago the New York World
printed reports by telegraph from 300 of
its correspondents in the South and
Southwest upon the condition, July, 9Th,
ofthe cotton crop In their respective lo-
ealities. These reports, which cover
thoroughly the whole cotton raising seq
tion Of the United States, make avery
discouraging showing for this years crop
of that staple. It is already certain that
the crop has been badly damaged by un-
favorable weather during the past six
weeks; that it has got q poor start; that
it Is being injured by insects and disease
and cannot amount to an average yield.
More serious still is the prospect that
further adverse weather, which may
fairly be expected at this season, catching
the belated crop In its present condition,
viii reduce the yield still further.
{ a few sections, as In Florida and Louis
lana, SEEM tob be excepted from the fate
that has overtaken the cotton territory
generally, but they are not extensive
enough to make any material difference
In the crop as d whole.

"A Tennessee negro who had been
shot in a row some time ago, was discov.
cred at work in field with three bullets
in his body. He observed that they
''didn't bother him at ALL"
1t takes something moro than a
lightning flash to kill the average Geor-
gia negro. An instance of this is recalled
by the story of the negro who was plow-
ing in field last week, where he was
oyertaken by thunderstorm. At the
end of row he stopped his mule in the
tence corner and took seat on the plow
stock to wait until the elements ceased
their war before continuing his work,
While calmly awaiting the passing of
the storm, without the least fear Of dan.
ger, bolt of lightning suddenly struck
the mule dead, knocked the plowstook
into smithereens and tumbled the negro
several feet off In an insensible condi-
ton, The negro was found short while
afterwards and was thought to be dead,
but in about ap hours time be showed
signs of regai1ing consciousness and is
now getting well after knocking at
deaths door. No signs OF injury from
the lightning was found on his person,
and the only injury done to his clothing
was the complete destruction Of that por-
tion of his pants which was in immediate
contact with the plowstock that the dar-
key was sitting on. The negro's escape
from death was remarkable one, and Il
is not easily understood why he was not
killed when the mule, the plowstock and
the rear of his pantaloons all suffered ex-
termination,

This "goldbug" story comes from
Texas. A man was sitting in dark
room few nights since when he was at
tracted by the buzzing Of bug which
was of bright gold color. The story
goes on to relate that he was "a SUPER
stitious man," and taking the appearance
of the bug as favorable omen, he fol-
lowed it out into the night. 1t stopped
directly over an old well in deserted
field then the man went to digging, and
presently discovered number of gold
dollars and some few silver coins, and re-
turned home, blessing his good fortune
