The guests rose from the tables and
crowded around Mr.. Hall, as the sec
ond in the list of five vanished with n
suddenness that would have turned
Daniel Lambert yellow with envy.
The third came and went. and then
the ruling passion asserted itself and
the crowd began to bet eagerly on the
result, with Apoplexy strong favor
ite at seven to ten. Now the fourth
victim appeared and Mr.. Hall took it
in about dozen bites. The murmur
of voices had sunk to a gasping silence
as the fifth and last in the line came
up. Mr.. Hall was now in the home
stretch and running easily. From this
point the contest was a mere hand-gal-
lop for him, and without the slightest
urging he passed under the wire the
easiest of winners without having
turned hair.
Then Mr.. Hall, after n short nap, be-
gan to yell like Cherokee on the war;

sent the crowd of prosecutors flying in
all directions; all except the ring
leader, which fell sprawling in the
middle of the street, and was begin
ming to get the drubbing he deserved
when things took a very unexpected
turn.
A cable car came dashing down the
hill, with changing bell, right upon the
dogs. Nobody is expected to warn dogs
of danger, and so the car was almost
upon them when the policeman cried:
Get out!'
The big dog saw the danger and
sprang aside, but his late assailant was
on his back and too much in dread OF
his punishment TO see anything else.
There he lay and in second more
would be crushed,
The Newfoundland saw the situa-
ton, and, after he had partly turned
away, sprang back and snatched him,
still whining and begging for mercy,
out of the very jaws of death. He laid
him in the gutter, and then. as though
further retaliation had entirely escaped
his mind, he gave a good-natured wae
or two of his tail and started on up the
street

An Oiicious Smart Man Gets Himself In
TO Trouble.
The smart man was getting off a
train, when he saw a couple ahead of
him who at once challenged his atten-
ton and Indignation. The husband
was walking off with his hands in his
pockets, while the wife carried baby
and large basket and valise.
This was too much for the smart man
and, stepping up to the overloaded
woman, he said:
Let me assist you, madam" and,
seizing the basket and valise, he ran
after the husband, whom he grabbed
without ceemony.
Here, sir, carry these things for
Eour wife. should think you would
be ashamed to call yourself a man, and

dignantly, "she amt my wife. never
saw the woman in my life till now"
At the same time the woman was
shrieking at the top OF her voice: stop

most eloquence to convince the depot
policeman that he was not sneak
thief, instead of self-appointed re-
former of other peoples morals and
manners. Detroit Free Press.

What Congress Costs.

Concord Times
The Federal Congress costs the tax
payers OF the United States a large sum
of money. The pay OF the members OF
the House of Representatives is 81 800
OOO besides 100000 mileage. The
list Of clerks, door-keepers, pages. mes
sengers, etc, runs up to S730OOO The
Office Of Sergeant-at-arms requires an
other $40 600, and the House postofiice
demands $4,000. The salaries of the
600, with $40, 900 mileage Employees
in the Office of the Vice President re-
ceive S5,4OO The Secretary of tie
Senate with his staff Of assistants, con
sumes $4,000; and the Sergcant-at-
arms AMI his helpers get Sl1S.OOO The
official stenographers are paid an ag-
gregate Of $4,000. The printing of
the Congressional Record costs $780,
600. The outlay for the printing of the
bills and joint resolutions amounts to
more than 100000. Great economy
is practiccl in the matter Of religion
The chaplans OF the House and Senate
receive each only 5000 It takes 500

in repair, an $4,000 to pay the po-

COL. BURGWYN ON ROADS.

RALEIGH, JAN. Cool. VIM. H. S.
Burgwyn, of Henderson, prominent
banker of the State and known to be
one of the most progressive men in it.,
writes as follows to Prof. H. &. Battle
here in regard to the coming State
Road Congress on the 10TH in
Raleigh
sin reply to your circular, would
say in answer to your four interroga
tons, most certainly | do advise a
Road Congress. Let it meet in Raj
eish and during the session Of the
present Legislature, SO that the nee
essary legislation may be had. Delay
in getting this Legislature to act in
the premises will postpone all remedy
for two years al least. We must put
in operation agencies % advance the
State along the lines u development,
and 10 one thing will tend to make
our farming land more valuable as
much as a system Of public road i'm
provement, thus enabling the farmer
10 haul his crops to market Al much
less expense and bringing his lands
into market through their ready
accessibility. II seems to me that
State supervision is indispensable. and
that it would be wise to utilize the
conviCts on these lines"

STATE BANKS.
Estate ChrOnicle.I

The central idea of law on this
subject should be to place beyond
question the solvency of the bank
notes by undoubted security as the
basis of their redemption, and recog-
milton of such means of security as will
be safe and within reach of our people.
A State bank law without recogniz-
ing the latter would not answer the
needs of the people, for it prescribes a
certain class of securities only and if
these should not be within reach Of
the people the banking would be con-
fined to a few fortunate individuals.
The objection most urged against
Senator Sherrlll's bill is that it makes
State bonds the only basis of banking,
but this objection can be easily obvi-
ated by an amendment making land
and other property of the proper char
aCitr also the basis.
The bill introduced in the House
by Representative Vance provides:
Section 3. That before such asso-
cation snail have the power to place
Its notes IN circulation, it shall trans
fer and deliver to the Treasurer of the
State bonds bearing interest, issued by
any county in the State under author
lty OF law; municipal bonds issued by
any municipal corporation of the State
under the constitution and laws per-
| tanning thereto; bonds of the State of
North Carolina; or bonds of any other
State having marketable par value
drawing interest; or bonds OF the
United States; or railroad mortgage
bonds. That the Treasurer shall re-
celpt for same, stating that the bonds
are deposited TO secure the promp,
payment Of said association of its cir.
culation notes to be be furnished un.
der the provisions of this act.
The feature of this provision which
would make the bonds of other State:
! security for the notes of our own State
banks appears to US rather objeCtiona
bic. This State would have no power
