From the Wilmington Review
"Not much money will leave North
Carolina this year for Yankee hay
because not only is the crop of fodder
enormous but a great deal OF hay
and clover has been cut. There have
been as many as three crops of grass
cut from some fields, and we under
stand that the people are getting
into the way Of making more and
more hay every year. The encour-
agement of big crops of feed this
year will have a wonderfully stimu-
lating effect on all kinds of farm
labor next year and We may yet
hope to see the day when our people
will regularly, year after year. ex

A Crank's Warning.

New York. February 9.-The Herald
this morning says that when the servants
in the employ Of Chauncey M. Depew,
william K Vanderbilt and Mrs. Drayton,
sister of John Jacob Astor, emerge from
the mansions of these millionaires early
yesterday morning they found placards
pasted on the front of the houses upon
which was the drawing of bomb with
a short, sputtering fuse, Close to the bomb
were the letters l.C.P." surmount-
ing cross, made heavy and forbidding
by the plentiful use of black ink. Writ
ten in Latin upon the cards was the fol-
lowing: Brother, remember the glorious
example of valiant. Death to the rich
man. This is marked man. Warn ali.
BY the will of the common people" 1t
was said that the residences of John D..
Rockefeller, H. M. Flagher and G. P.
Huntington were also decorated with
these warnings but it was impossible to
secure continuation of the reports. From
the wording of the warnings they would
seem to be the work of organized cranks
but the police scout the idea. They
attri butte the placards to a single an
archist crank whose purpose is simply to
annoy.

A Bay State Fishery Question.

Provincetown, Mass, February "a
bill known as the Hoxie bill will be pre-
sented to the legislature at this session
providing that ''all weirs, pounds, traps,
seines and ali stationary devices for TAX
ing fish be abolished in the waters of the
Commonwealth. 1t has called out about
all of Cape Cod in remonstrance. A mass
meeting was held yesterday in the town
hall, representatives being present from
Truro, Wellf1eet, Dennis, Harwich and
other parts of the Cape. Speeches were
made and an association formed to be
called the Massachusetts Seine, Weir and
Gill Net Fishery Association. 1t is the
intention of the association to fight the
passage of the Hoxie bill as the members
believe it to be detrimental to the inter-
esus of Cape Cod aud its people. Men
who do not own a net or any kind of
fishing gear have readily put down their
names as members of the association
and pledged themselves to support the
order financially. The town of Truro,
as town, has voted 800 to the cause.

TO THE ATHENS OF AMERICA.
HustIing Ponca, of the Cherokee Strip,
Has Sent for Two Car Loads of Young
Women.

Washington, February 9.-Absence of
women in suddenly settled Western cities
and women out of employment through
hard times in the East, have combined
to set on foot unique enterprise. The
town of Ponca, in the Cherokee strip re-
Gently opened, is suffering for want of q
due proportion of the gentler sex. Re-
Gently the citizens had meeting to con-
slider the matter, most of them being
young men, and after much discussion,
and partly upon the suggestion of the
few already present, it was decided to
send an agent East to attempt to supply
the want. Mr.. Oscar Miles was chosen
for the delicate mission, and is on his
wav to Boston. He has made this stat,
ment:
II am going East for two car loads of
women for our town. We need 'em and
need 'em bad. We want them to wash
our dishes. mend our clothes, sew on
our buttons and, generally speaking, to
make life endurable in our town. You
see, it's this way; We've got regular
woman famine, that's what the trouble.
do not pretend to explain how it hap
pened that Ponca City was settled nearly
altogether by bachelors. but that is prac-
tically the case. 1t is coincidence l
suppose. AT any rate there is not more
than one woman to every 20 men in our
town, and they are generally women who
have their household duties to keep
them busy. We want women to work, as
I have told you.
"Why do I go to Boston for girls?
Well, I'll tell you. We might possibly
get some in Kansas City that would suit
us, but in Chicago we could not do much
We canvassed that thoroughly before I
left home, and concluded that it was
best to go direct to Boston. The fact is
we want an Al class of girls, good New
England stock.
''To be candid with you, sir, we are go
ing after these women with view to
marrying them after we get better &C
quainted with them. l am confident that
many of them will have offers of mar
riage before they are ten days in Ponca.'

New York, February 9.-In letter to

it demands the permanent reduction of

appear considerably larger than the
property of the company can carry with

locHREN,s ANSWER.
What the Commissioner Has to Say of
Judge Longs Pension.

What the Commissioner Has to Say of
Judge Longs Pension.
Washington, February 9.-Commission-
err of Pensions Lochren today filed his
answer in the case of Judge Charles D.
Long, of Michigan upon the order from
the Supreme court of the District of
Columbia, issued Jan. 81, last, requir-
ing the commissioner to show cause why
he should not be enjoined from proceed
ing further against Judge Long under
the notice given him January 4, 1894, to
produce additional proofs as to his right
to pension of 81 month, or from re-
ducing or attempting to reduce, or from
modifying or disturbing the pension.
Commissioner Lochren admits the
wounds received by Judge Long, but
denies that the latter is thereby in
capacitated from performing manual
labor. He AYERS that he cannot lawful
ly act as commissioner of pensions, up
on the said statements when not duly
certified to him by medical examination,
according to the statutes.
Commissioner Lochren further AYERS
that Judge Long is entirely able to per-
form such manual labor as may be per-
formed by person having only one arm.
He denies that Judge Longs pension
certificate was regularly or legally issued
and SAYS that upon the acceptance of the
certificate, the complainant surrendered
a prior certificate, issued May 16. 1889,
and that consequently, Judge Long now
holds no legal pension certificate and is
not entitled to the payment of any
pension until restoration and the ac-
ceptance by him of the last previous
legal certificate which the com missioner
declares himself ready and willing to
allow upon the surrender of the illegal
certificate. The commissioner states that
no final decision will be made by him in
the case OF Judge Long until after the
thirty days notice given him. All the
evidence as to matters of fact and argu-
ments as to matters of law may be pre-
sented by Judge Long and will be fully
and fairly considered by the commission
er The commissioner declared that if
the decision in the premises is adverse to
Judge Long, the complainant will have
the right Of appeal to the Secretary of
the Interior and the decision of the Sec
rotary will be final. He AYERS that the
court has no jurisdiction to enjoin him
from exercising his statutory authority.
