In certain church in Ireland a young
priest was detailed to preach. The occa.
sion was his first appearance, and he took
for his text, 1.-THE Feeding of the Multi
tude."
He said, And they fed 10 people with
10000 loaves Of bread and 10000 fishes"
An old IIishman said, That's no mira
Gle. Begorra, ! could do that myself"
which the priest overheard.
The next Sunday the priest announced
the same text, but he had it right this
time. He said, And they fed 10000 people
on 10 loayes OF bread and 10 fishes"
He waited second, and then leaned over
the pulpit and said, And could you do
that, Mr. Murphy"
Murphy replied, And sure, your rev
erence, | could"
And how could you do itY" said the
priest.
And sure, your reverence, / could do it
with what was left over from last Sunday"

"But he is gentleman, thought Mrs.
Carnegie, when Fleming entered the room
where she, her husband and their two cid
er daughters were assembled TO receive
him. Mr.. Carnegie felt Dollie's hand
trembling on his arm as he led her down
and had at last TO support her lest her feet
should fail her altogether.
At the drawing room door he kissed her
and said;

You could not have married him. But !

expected.

you quite sure that you would never have
said yesy"
"Quitel Stick to what has been agreed
on, and let us get quietly over it,"
All eyes were fixed on Dollie as she came
in, looking pale, i'll and scarcely able to
stand. No one spoke-all waited to hear
the words that were about TO be said.
How would that faltering, frightened girl
get through her set speechi They had
expected that all that was about TO be
said would be said within range of their
hearing, but Mr. Fleming went TO meet

LOWEST PRICE ON RECORD.

On last Tuesday wheat reached the
lowest price ever known on the Chi
cago market-56 cents per bushel.
Understand now that this means for
the finest and cleanest wheat. Other
grades are much lower. The indica-
tions are that wheat will go still
lower.
There is food for thought in this
cheap food for buyers, but dear food
for the farmer. About one half of our
population are engaged in farming.
The other half buy most Of our surplus
farm products, though some of them
are sold in Europe. Plutocracy has
cornered the money and demonetized
silver. In order to carry out the hellish
scheme they must have the moral sup
port of at least a portion of the people.
A few farmers will stand by them, and
as long as the merchant, professional
or laboring man can get his bread and
meat at such %ruinously low prices,
p%lutocracy hasn't much to fear from
them. The dollar is scarce, but it will
now buy a great deal. But the farm
ers are the worst. sufferers, and until
they stand together, think together
and vote together, they need not expect
a living chance.

The first commencement If the larger

Besides the interest attaching to the

Rond thaler, the address of the brilliant
Bryan on Wednesday, the 23rd, and
the lecture on the Last Days of the
Co~nfederacy" by General Gordon on
Thursday night will make the COM

Those who enjoy genuine oratory

His Excellency Governor Carr, Chief
Justice Shepherd and other State Off
Gals will be present
1t is hoped that a large number of
women of North Carolina will be pres

Mrs. Bryan, the wife of Congressman

STILL Prosecuting VANCE.

The following from the Charlotte o.
serUer is being copied by ali those ma
chine papers that prosecuted Vance
while living:
RANSOM AT VANCES BIER.
"a great North Carolinian lay dead
and Gen. Ransom demonstrated at his
bier that a great one remains. AS
Vance shed lustre upon the State by
his own illustrious career, so Ransom
demonstrated before the Senate and
country, in his announcement and
eulogy, that he was worthy to have
been the dead mans yoke fellow"
Ransom a yoke-fellow for Vance in
deed! It is enough to make the old
hero and patriot turn over in his grave.
Those Ransom organs that prosecuted
Vance while living should now have
more respect for the dead than to pub.

coTToLENE.

The N. K. Fairbank Company of
Chicago have lately brought suit in
the United States Court against w. L.
Henry, Of this city, for $1,000 for in
fringement of their trade mark Got
tolene." The N. K. Fairbank Company
sets forth that they originated, pre-
pared and put upon the market a new
food product consisting Of refined cot
ton seed oil and a small proportion of
beef suet, making a pale yellow mate
rial of the consistency and substance
of lard, almost without odor and in
tended to take the place of lard in
cooking.
In order to indicate the source and
genuineness of their new food product,
they originated, coir ed, and use as a
trade mark the word ''Cottolene." The
healthfulness and many other advan-
tages of ~cottolene over lard were so az
parent that cottolene became at once
very popular and is now largely sold
all over the country.
The new food product and its name
''cottolene" have become widely known
as the product of the N. K. Fairbank
Company. The trade mark is described
as a ''trade mark for oleaginous food
substances, etc" consisting of a head
or neck of a steer or other bovine par
TALLY enclosed by sprigs and branches
of the cotton plant"
The NIX Fairbank Company charges
that w. L. Henry, of Macon, Ga, a
dealer in. fresh meats and food products
generally, has been and is endeavoring
unlawfully to avail himself of the ben
efts of the name ~"cottolene" and it's
popularity that he has been and is sell
ing a product similar IN kind, but in
ferior in quality, under the name of
''cottolene'' to the injury of the original
and genuine ~''cottolene," and to the
loss and injury of its manufacturers,
the N. K. Fairbank Company.
The infringements upon the trade
mark of ''cottolene' have become SO
frequent, and so many dealers are sell
ing an inferior article and claiming it
to be cottolene that the N. z. Fairbank
Company are determined to protect
their customers and propose to sue
every retail dealer who is thus impos
ing upon his customers and infringing
upon the N. K. Fairbank OOmpany's
trade mark.-TeIegTGph, Macon, Ga.

POLK MEMORIAL MEETING.

The Aberdeen Local Alliance held a
meeting over the Star Office on Satur-
day afternoon of more than usual in
terest. The programme was specially
arranged by the lecturer, Irene Kidd,
to commemorate the memory of the
late National President, L. L Polk.
President Webb gave a short talk and
read the following poem by Hon, L N.
Grill, published in the RurGlist:
What can we say, what tribute pay
Unto the fallen LEADER
WI o sleeps beneath a Southern sun
The peoples 1nterceeder.
Death claimed him for It's own,
And leftthe legacy
The sweetest rhyme of coming time
He4Oved humanity.
Greathearted PolkI the common folk
In him had found a brother
"A loving counsellor, whose words
His heart did fondIY mother.
So grand so true, SO free.
The Welkin ~ring-fOrever sing
He loved humanity.
His life was spent-hisc courage bent
In lettering his nation;
Inspiring man to rise above
A selfish aspiration,
And greet his ellOw-ma with love
And truth and loyalty.
Well e'er revere his character
He loved humanity.
Where'er he talked, where'er he walked,
His presence was fTaternal;
His race one brotherhood; and lOl
His presence, it was paternal
To know him was to love him, 50,
Bereft in s rrOW, We,
His cOuntrymen, doth sing this hy mn
He loved humanity"
Jos, Meyer, State Secretary. followed
with a very excellent and ~appreciative
paper giving a sketch of Folks life
and work. FL. Il. Beals also gave a
short talk.
Rev. R. w, Haire was called upon
and gave an interesting address upon
the Coxey army movement and the
meaning of the universal unrest of
labor.
The programme was pleasantly in.
terspersed with music and at the close
a collection was taken up for the Polk
memorial fund. The sum of 81. so was
contributed, a very handsome amount
for these hard times. The money will
be forwarded to President Butler, of
North Carolina, as a token of the good
will of the Northwest to their Southern
brethren aberdeen, d., Star.
