NORTH CAROLINA EXHIBIT.
An Interesting Feature in the Mining
and Forestry Building.

An interesting FedtuTe III the NAlHiHS
and Forestry Building.
The North Carolina mineral exhibit
in the Mining and Forestry building,
which has just been awarded a gold
medal, is as it was planned to be, a
practical one throughout. The rare
species and fancy specimens have been
left at home, and the materials which
make up the exhibit there have been
selected from the best known workable
deposits of iron, gold, silver, copper,
coal, corundum, kaolin stone, and other
geological products.
The more important mines are indi-
Gated on the geographical maps and
beautiful illustrated transparencies in
the windows over the exhibit, and a
colored chart, 240 feet long, shows the
various geological formations across the
entire State, including valuable mineral
deposits in the middle and western
counties, and artesian water supplies
in the eastern counties.
An important feature of these North
Carolina exhibits is that their complete
ness. arrangement and labelling, give
an educational value not elsewhere
seen. The exhibits themselves tell the
whole story. Thus the monazite ex-
hibit-the rare mineral used in the
manufacture OF the new Welsbach gas
burner, shows the rock and soil in which
the mineral occurs large photograph
transparencies in the window and a
complete mining outfit show the meth
DDS of mining and washing the sand.
and the illumination of the building
with Welsbach lights completes the eX-
hibit. a similar completeness charac-
terzes the phosphate. iron, gold, kaolln,
and other exhibits. The building stone
collection includes marble, serpentlnes,
quartzes and granite, of all colors,
texture, and sandstone in great variety
and the large carved vase and doorway
of brownstone, from Sanford, \. c.,
shows a perfection of stone and work
manship rarely met with anywhere.
III gems and gold nuggets the North
Carolina collections surpass those from
any other State. Indeed. in the gem
collection for the whole South, North
Carolina contributes more than half Of
the entire exhibit.
In the forestry end of the building
the Old North State has an exhibit of
specimens of valuable woods and pho
tographs and maps, such as shows up
her wonderful forest resources in good
shape. Here, as elsewhere, Killers
fine transparencies of North Carolina
landscapes show of to good advantage.

A MAMMOTH NEWSPAPER.

The "cotton mill edition" of the
Raleigh Macs and Obsey1sr, issued On
Thanksgiving day, was the most gi-
gantiC as well as the most Creditablc
thing yet accomplished in North Car
DINA journalism. Nor has it been
surpassed in the South as far as we
know. 1t was SO pages, illustrated
with cuts of factory buildings, pictures
of the owners and managers, female
operatives, &c, the whole forming a
comprehensive and intelligent epitome
Of the Gotten manufacturing industry
in North Carolina. 1t was marvel
Gus undertaking and brilliant
achievement and will do inCalculable
good to the State in giving better
and fuller knowledge of this particular
line of industry. To Mr.. F. b. Aren-,
dell, of the Macs ant Obseyrey staff
to whom was assigned the task of gath
ering the data az d writing up the va
rious cotton mills of the State and the
details of business, too much praise
can not be given. He did his work
we'll and is entitled to large share of
the credit for the success of this mag
nlhccnt number of which we write.

MINISTER RANSOM COMING HOME.

EVIDENTLY, Minister Ransom thinks
there is no place like home He had
not been al his post in the City OF
Mexico long before he returned to
this country on account of his health.
He protraCted his stay until it began
to be doubted that he would go back
at all, or if the office he held was
really Of much Importance since it did
not seem to require the presence of the
Minister to discharge any duties that
were supposed to be attached thereto.
Now it is announced that Minister
Ransom is about to visit his old no
again. From an exchange We copy
the following;

Conditions-A cool week, the temper

tire week except the 18Th. But little
rain has fallen except in the central
counties Of the eastern division, whore
fair to good rains occurred on the 10Th,
reaching one inch and over in Usage and
Anderson.
Eastern division-Corn is growing
slowly; wheat headed short, with no inn
provsment in condition; oats, grass and
fax need rain very much; fruit still hold
ing it's own. Gardens and potatoes are
making some progress. Frosts have
nipped corn and vegetables in localities
even as far south as Cofey.
Middle diviBion--It has been 6 hard
week on crops, the conditions being
continuously ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS, dry
weather and sudden changes in the tenn
perature, with much wind, doing the
work. Corn is still the best crop,
though out-worms have damaged it con.
considerably.
Western divislon-All irrigated crops
are in fine condition, but the unirrigated
are growing poorly or retrogrsding. Al
falfs is the best crop in this division
and the first crop is now being harvested
in the southern counties and is nearly
ready for harvesting in the northern.

"CharRe 3. IncompstsnoY.-Ws find
that said specification is not sustained

that by a prepOndersnce Of testimony
the proficiency, efficiency and Capability

In his argument Judge ThRCher re-
viewed all the evidence carefully. OF
that regarding the Senator Baker ban
quet at LsaVenworth, he said:
"One could but admire the caution OF
the prosecution in not inquiring into
the doings Of the banquet. Possibly IL
was because such an inquiry would lay
the foundation for the removal Of state
officials and Of those more potent in
state affairs than the officials themselves.
At Rll events 1t is incredible that Mr..
Rogers was rseling drunk On the train
and at the platform in Lawrence and
yet be able to walk up town, get his
dinner, visit friends, and not one Of those
who were with him conscious Of his con-
dition. If evidence is Of any value Mr..
Rogers was q sober man on this oCCa-
sion. So this shRdowy,
vague and unreliable evidence runs on.
None OF it touches any specific act
charged by the prosecution, most Of it il
located five or more years ago and con-
sists OK some uncertain or dishonest
memories."
Judge ThReher concluded:
"The testimony Of Senator Rogers
meets every accusation, inuendo or false
hood in the case Of the prosecution with
plain, coherent and reliable statements
He is an old soldier, Of a soldiers habits
