A LITTLE PET TREE.
Tr. Craw OF Ihe horticultural Com
mission Has n Queer PLANT.

A pretty window ornament is q
tiny alligator pear tree which
Alexander Craw of the State Hor-
ticultural Commission cherishes
as the apple of his eye. The tree
is about six mouths old and is
large for its age, being about
three feet high. No sordid dark
hued earth gives nourishment to
its dainty thread-like roots which
float at will within the crystalline
depths of transparent water jar.
Any one, says Mr.. Craw, may
have one Of these graceful and
unique ornaments. The alligator
pear is easily procured at most
large fruitstores. One end of the
pear should be cut off and the I'M
cut end allowed to rest above the
neck of wide mouthed jar of
water, the water barely touching
the fruit. Every week or so the
water should be changed, the pear
being handled as little and as
tenderly as possible. The germ
within the pear will soon COM
mence to swell, and in short
time will rend the fruit asunder,
sending up a tiny shoot of green
which will grow with astonishing
rapidity. Mr.. Craw's tree has
leaves averaging ten inches in
length by three in width, and is
much admired by all who have
seen 1.-THE Call.

The WAY ItCoes.

There is an adage almost as
old as the news we see in some
papers, that if you want TO find
out what is going on near by go
off, and you will hear it all.
The correspondents up in Wash.
ington appear to know more
about what is going on down
here in North Carolina than the
people who live here. In the
main they send out good deal
Of live and reliable news, but
occasionally they light on to a
mares nest, and in their hurry
to get a scoop on some less en-
terprising knight of the quill,
send it off without waiting for
the proper verification. We
clip the following from a recent
letter, as a fair sample of how
Washington correspondents are
running North Carolina politics
In Shaw's case it is said that
it has been decided to turn
Cyrus Thompson down so that,
as a return, the republicans
will consent to his being gov,
ernor. This is the latest gag
and is ssid to have the consent
Of Butler, if not Of Pritchard
The story goes that then Shaw
will be seated, but that Lock
hart will be turned down as il
has been determined that al
least one populists must b

Tributes 10 Thomas Paine.

a falrly large ana appreciatiVe
audience was present Monday
afternoon at the regular weekly
meeting ofthe Secular League in
typographical Temple. Mr..
Maurice Pechin presided, and
spoke of the Pagan origin Of
Easter festivities, after which he
introduced Mr.. r Grant Barnwell
who delivered an address on "The
Real Thomas Paine"
Mr.. Barnwell said: Sowing to
prejudices and jealousies which
prominent leaders sometimes en-
counter, justice has long been de-
MED to Thomas Paine. He was
neither a drunkard nor an atheist.
He was a model Quaker gentle
man. He was philosopher and
pioneer reformer. He invented an
iron bridge which compares ia.
yorably with those Of modern con
struction. He was the first to ar
rign monarchy, the FIRST to de-
nounce slavery, the first to. adyo-
cate woman's rights, and the FIRST
to protest against cruelty r. dumb
animals. Though drafted by
Jefferson, tie declaration Of indie
pendence originated with Thomas
Paine. He was the first to pub
licly advocate national indepen
dence, and anticipated the decla-
ration Of independence in his
Pennsylvania Magazine by least
eight months. To the remarrka-
bic genius of Thomas Paine, a de-
parted brother In the profession, no
enlightened American editor
should deny the full measure Of
credit due. BY the camp fires at
night he wrote "The Crisis, "

Mr.. William II. Burr then

from the tyranny that kings claim

with beat of drum and bayonets

United States Congress has at

reference to the condition of af.

Yet the resolution has no spe-
cial meaning. Its diplomatic
uncertainty can only be excell-
ed by a latter day party plat
form. After a year of actual
fighting, known to the civilized
world, the resolution startles us
with the announcement that a
condition Of public war exists
between the Government of
Spain and the Government Pro-
