Words Of Advice About Getting
on Moving Trains.

A word of advice is here given to
those persons who make it practice
of waiting until the last second to
board railroad train, thereby en-
dangering the loss of their lives by
falling and being mangled to death.
Especially at this season of the year,
when multitudes of people congregate
at depots and stations, care should be
exercised as to getting on and alight-
ing from moving trains. 1t is true,
time is precious to business men in
these stirring times, but everyone can
SO regulate his movements that a few
seconds of time will always be at his
command when about starting away
on a train. If he must be in a hurry
let him be so at the other end of the
line. We all know the innumerable
number of fatal accidents that have
occurred through men reaching train
just five seconds too late. We are
prompted to make these remarks,
noticing daily, the carelessness with
which some people board moving
trains. On a railroad track, and
alongside moving train, is the worst
possible place for men to exhibit great
haste. Start a minute earlier, walk
the least bit faster, time your move
ments little better in short, do the
rapid part of your journey before you
reach the railroad station and take
your leisure in getting into the car
The headlong speed to board train,
that is in the act of starting, has cost
the lives of many. Let this matter be
ever present in the minds of those who
ride on our railroads.

North Carolina Dates,
[CharlOtte News, /

The Wilmington Star has been
trying to help out the News in its
advocacy of blackberry culture, and
writes a two column article. The
Star puts up good case, too. Incl
dentally, it says that the persimmon
crop should not be neglected, and
gives this incident: "Some years ago
barrel of persimmons was sent from
Greensboro to commission house in
St. Louis. The party who sent them
didn't know whether they would sell
or not, but in due time he received a
letter with a remittance of twenty
five dollars, the amount the barrel
brought over and above the freight
and commission. They were sold as
North Carolina dates when dates
were higher than they are now. The
merchants knew what they were, but
thought they would go better than North
Carolina persimmons and called them
North Carolina dates They could
have sold more if they had them but
the date supply was exhausted with
that one experimental shipment, and
before the next season came around
the old man who shipped them had
crossed the river and gone into the
land where there are neither dates nor
persimmons and few St. Louis com
mission merchants. But seriously, the
persimmon is worth experimenting
with and worth cultivating as an
experiment to see what there is in it,
for the result might be a delightful
and a valuable fruit. 1t is a very
easy matter to experiment on putting
them up either in jelly form or as
sdates.' ~

TO ATTRACT IMMIGRATION.
The Southern States Magazine
Doing a Good Work in This
Direction.

"There are thousands that would
go South if there was some one to
start the ball" is what New England
farmer writes to the Southern States
magazine, of Baltimore. From Min
nesota comes letter giving long
list of names of farmers who want to
go South, and with it is expressed the
hope, ''may God give you success in
your laudable work for the benefit of
US frozen denizens of the cold North
west" And from the same State
farmer writes 81 have got and am
getting more real good points re-
garding the South from one copy of
the Southern States than I would have
been able to have got in long, long
time had l not CHANGED to have seen
it. The South will beat California
for fruit. l have lived in California
and known whereof 1 write"
Such letters as the foregoing are
coming to the Southern States from
New England, from the West and
from the Northwest in an ever increas-
ing number. We confess that we
have been amazed at the number of
these letters and at the great interest
that is being aroused in these sections
among farmers and others who want
to 20 South, and for the demand for
information about the South. The
cry of Go South promises to swell
to greater volume than even the " Go
West'' of the past ever reached, if the
railroads and the people of the South
will now promptly unite in vigorous
work to encourage this growing
tendency and do it on the same broad
scale as has characterized the work of
the Western States for many years.
Because of these facts the Southern
States magazine will henceforth be
devoted mainly to the immigration
and real estate interests of the South,
and at the same time presenting every
phase of the South's general attrac-
tions and advantages for the home
seeker and the investor with the same
energy with which the Manufacturers
Record has for ten years labored to
push forward the industrial growth
and interests of the South. The
Southern States magazine will fully
cover this field. 1t will continue
from month to month to publish the
letters of Northern and Western
farmers who have settled in the South,
telling of the advantages of this section
as compared with their former homes.
These letters are attracting great
attention in the North and West. 1t
will set forth the attractions of the
South for fruit culture, as we'll as for
every branch of agriculture it will
publish special illustrated articles
covering the attractions of the South
for the pleasure and seeker.
Especial attention will be given to the
real estate interests OF the whole South,
and reports made of all important
sales anywhere from Maryland to
Texas.
The leading feature of the current
issue is general discussion of how to
develop immigration, by some fifteen
or twenty of the most prominent
railroad officers of the South. Mr.. R.
H. Edmonds, editor and general
manager of the Manufacturers Re-
cora, is also editor of the Southern
States magazine.

GREELEY'S EXPERIENCE.
Washington POst.l

1t was in 1912 that Horace Greeley
was married, at Warrenton, Warren
county, N. c. Travelling in those
days was attended by vastly more
difficulties than in these days of
Pullman cars and steamboats, making
nineteen knots an hour. Greeley had
to travel all the way from New York
city, and the itinerary of his journey is
still preserved by an admiring native
of North Carolina, who has long been
a resident of Washington, connected
with semi-oficial life.
Here it is: At New York the great
editor boarded a steamboat that
carried him to Perth Amboy, N. ].
Here he left the boat and took train
to Camden. Arrived at Camden he
was ferried across the Delaware to
Philadelphia, where he again changed
his mode of journeying to railroad
locomotion. He boarded the Phila-
delphia and Wilmington Railway and
rode to Havre de Grace, where
ferryboat received and landed him on
the other side of the Susquehanna,
and he continued his journey to
Baltimore. In an omnibus he crossed
Baltimore to the station of the Balti-
more and Ohio Railway, which
carried him to Washington. Here he
was conveyed by bus to the Seventh
street wharf, where he took passage on
a Potomac boat and was borne to
Aqua Creek, in Virginia. At this
point he again took train as far as
Richmond, via the Richmond and
Fredericksburg Railroad, then again an
omnibus to the Petersburg depot,
where another train fastened him
twenty-five miles, to Petersburg, and
where again he entered bus and was
ratified through Petersburg to the
depot of the Weldon Railway. He
rode as far as place called the
Junction, where the Raleigh and
CASTOR company took him to the end
of the road. Here he climbed into a
stage, which finally landed him at
Warrenton the home of Beau Hickman,
Senator Ransom, and his affianced
wife.
But Mr. Greeley's troubles were
not ended even then. In those in
teresting times man was compelled
to give security in the sum of 81 900
for the support, maintenance and kind
treatment of his wife. Mr.. Greeley
was a stranger in Warrenton, with no
one to appeal to for helping hand in
his dilemma. In some manner his
hopeless condition came 10 the ears of
Old Bill Yancey we'll known slave
trader in his day. Yancey was full
of the milk of human kindness, and no
sooner was made acquainted with the
predicament of the young candidate
for matrimonial partnership with one
of Warrenton's fairest daughters than
he declared he would be diff the
young fellow should travel all that
distance for wife and be separated
from her by mere form of law. So
Mr.. Yancey had himself introduced
to the young stranger and volunteered
to go security for the license. The
story goes that his prefer was CRATE
fully accepted, and the young couple
were united in the bonds of matrimony,
at which no one is said to have rejoiced
more sincerely than the aforesaid Old
Bill Yancey.

TO PREVENT CRUELTY TO
ANIMALS.

If there is anything that arouses the
indignation of generous and brave
soul it is the sight of wanton cruelty,
or, what is as bad, british Indifference
to the helpless sufferings OF our domestic
animals.
In nearly all civilized countries the
spontaneous impulse OF resentment at
such sights has found expression in
laws defining and furnishing such
offences. But here we have trusted SO
much to our indigenous chivalry, that,
except by every broad and vague
provisions in our laws, our animals are
left to "the tender mercies of the
wicked" which are " cruel" without
the power in those who would befriend
the mute sufferers 10 do so.
The time has come when additional
legislation is necessary to aid those
noble men and women who, without
fee or reward, save the joy Of an
approving conscience, have organized
themselves SO as to prevent revolving
instances of cruelty and dull, savage
insensibility in our streets.
We regret, as much as we were
surprised, to learn that this effort,
which should receive prompt and
cordial support, has met the opposition
in the Legislature, where the requisite
enactment has been asked for.
No explanation has been given OF
the grounds of opposition which
approximate the idea of satisfactory,
and it is to be hoped that default in
this matter by our law makers will not
defeat the efforts of our anti-crucl,y
society and bring reproach upon the
State. -Richmond Times.

SOMEHOW OR OTHER.
BY ALPHECs BURGOYNE

Life has burden for every mans shout
der,
None may escape from its trouble and
care:
Miss it in youth and twill come when
we're older,
And fit us as close as the garments We
wear.
Sorrow comes into your lives unlimited,
Robbing our hearts of their treasures OF
song;
Lovers grow cold and friendships are
sighted
Yet somehow or other we worry along
Every day toll is all everyday blessing.
Though pOverty's cottage and crust we
may share;
Weak is the back on which burdens are
pressing.
But stout is the heart that is strength
ened by prayer.
Somehow or other the pathway grows
brighter
Just when we mourn there were none to
befriend
Hope in the heart makes the burden seem
lighter,
And somehow or other we get to the end.

American Beauties

There are American Beauties and
American beauties-rOSes and women
and each pays homage to the other. Our
country is noted for its lovely women
and brilliant society leaders; and after
seeing the portraits of nearly a score of
Society Leaders of New York State"
given in DemorestS Magazine for February,
one is willing to coucede that the En-
pire State can hold it's own for the celeb
rity and beauty of its women of wealth
and culture for these portraits form a
charming collection oftypical NewW orld
women that everyone will find pleasure
in possessing.
Then everybody will be interested in
the account of How Great Newspapers
are Printed" with its numerous illus
tratiOns, and the daily newspaper will
acquire new interest after having read
about how it is made Trough Biding''
i. interesting as we'll as amusing; and
one must be entirely devoid of any sense
of humor who is not moved to laughter
by the humorous recital of the tribula-
tons of the dude in a roughriding class,
and the illustrations which portray his
ludicrous attitudes.
"Shall Incomes be Taxed" the live
question of the moment, is discussed by
Chas. 4. Dana, Henry Clews, Erastus
Wiman, Howard Gould, Hugh 0. Pente-
cost, Thos. +. Gilroy, and Samuel Com

lent suggestions; in fact, there is some
thing in this number to please everyone,
