A New York eiectrotyping firm Is
said to have hit the idea of electrotyp-

baby's first shoes, for example, may
be preserved indefinitely in metal.
We might give other instances, but,
although we should be sorry to dis
courage the firm, so far as our own ex-
perience goes mementoes do not gener-

ter to the Raleigh News and Observer, in
which is this:
His a wealthy Chinese merchant
residence is ust across the street from
my office, and the rooms occupied by tn,
women Of the house front on the street
and are only about 20 feet from the We
randa OF my office. No matter what

see them in these rooms, SO Judge that
they rise about daylight. Three of the e
women ere the wives Of the merchant
and each has female Chin St servant,
who is in constant attendance. Every
morning | have an opportunity OF
watching them arrange their hair and
paint their faces. which takes about tao
hours. After this is finished the women
come to the windows which are low and
broad. and here they remain watching
the street scenes until noon. when the,
have their meals served in their rooms.
In the afternoon they resume their posi-
tlons at the windows and they STAY
there Laughing and chatting like so many

TO SAVE THE COUNTRY.

And Richmond Pearson, "Sez He,"
Proposes to Stay Until 1t Is saved.
From the Raleigh News and Observer Tuesday.
That gentleman OF "red-lattice phra-
ses," Mr.. Richmond Pearson, flew down
from his mouutain.home to Raleigh a
few days ago. and his wings we're flakey
with the frost-spangles of his ducal
heights,
la other words, he brought a cc.d
snap with him,
He brought also another snapo OF which
he was the recipient on the 9th day oi
this month.
He sat Yesterday noon before the big
log fire at the Park hotel, rhawing him
self out. aud under the percolatin.
crackle OF the flame winch went even
unto his pin-feathers, he shook out all
his icicles and was on the earth Ion,
enough to say simply that 81 am here to
save the country, and propose to stay
here until it is saved
But how will you go about saving
the State. Mr.. Pearson ?"
well, think there should be a modi'
hcation of the election law. SO as to
make it tri-partis IN il this be necessary
to register the will of the people. There
should be an abolition o. the present
system OF county government, whereby
commissioners may not appoint tax
collectors who make themselves OBJ
uoxious to the pc c,ple. There should be
| an election of two United States Sen
| ators, an election of railroad cOmmis-
| sioner. Then we should all take drink
and 20 home
"Do YOU intend turning out all the
men in the public institutions as at pres

Il should, OF course, say that clean
sweep will be made in the penitentiarv,
hut in many other institutions the pres

example, take DR.. Murphy, in the asv-
lum at Morganton. That kind of a man
wont be displaced"
''As to these Senators, it appears that
YOUR mind is pretty well made up on
the two men?'
"Ycs, think it was well agreed
upon part of the program that Mr.. But

be the other man."
What does pritchard represent, Mr..
Pearson
"Mr. Pritchard repre- sents the force oI
the party, the other, the fears" the gen.
teman replied epigrammatically.
"Do you not know, Mr.. Pearson, that
Mr.. Pritchard has written letter in
which he said that Mr.. Ewart was his
strongest rival. and yet that MIR. Ew'
art was his personal friend ~
IL did not know of the letter, but
believe that Mr.. Ewart will vote for
Mr.. Pritchard, and that Mr.. Pritcharc
will be an easy winner. Ewart's owr
county is for PIitchard."
"Do you expect the Populsts to stay
with YOU in 1896 -
Il do. In order to keep them with US
we would 90 so tar as to take four Con
gressmen, let them take four, and throw
dice for the remaining Congressman. W.

All this was the plan and purpose OF thi!
whole fusion. lust as much asthe election
of Butler was part OF it. This move
ment has few leaders. but food of pco

dropping into epigram again.
