Dawson, N. G., Nov. 14.~(Special)
The football game between Davidson and
tcr visitors, the Bingham School team.
IN the college grounds to-day, resulted IN
victory for the former by score OF
. 90 4. This was OF course an occasion

with rival teams Their defeat here some
weeks ago by Charlotte was Il medicine
very bitter to swallow, though the taste
became very much less disagreeable when
Charlotte was second time victor IN
giving the University the same unpalat-
able dose. Everybody understands, how
ever that the Charlotte team is composed
in large part OF picked men formerly ON
several Of the college teams in this State,
among them Davidson.

The sermon tonight was simple, logical,
clear and impressive DIR. Smiths visit
was preceded by one on Sunday from
State Secretary Turner, and Mr. >. Nj.

accomplishing noble results.
The Mandolin and Guitar Club meet
regularly on Monday for practice. They
are taught by Miss Gertrude Williamson,
Of Charlotte, whose musical accomplish

DIR. Monroe's college building is still
incomplete, but can be finished in time for

to open its doors and have its threshold
first crossed for such dismal and dreary
work as examinations.

uANNA's CABINET GAMn.
Booked From the Start for Secretary OF
the Treasury Harrison for Secre-
,fnry of State.

Washington. Nov. II. (speciaD-There
il good deal of guessing these days at
NclIinley's cabinet. II is believed here
that Mark Hanna is certain to be Secre-
tarv az The Treasury. The doubt about
his going into the cabinet at all mas
been raised fer a purpose. All along ne
has intended 20 so into the cabinet as
Secretary OF the Treasury but both ne
and Mckinley desired that the appoint
ment should seem to be demanded 10y the
nrhl;c rather than to come just so. &c
was for this that Hanna announced
that permanent headquarters would he
kent up; il was for this that Hanna gave
and accepted these Belashazzar feasts
In New York; and the leaders in newspa-
pers and interviews with big bankers
loudly calling for Hanna are part of
shrewd system of spontaneous demand"
It is best all round that Hanna should
take the place that he has been WORKING
for all along. He can run the admins
tration better in the cabinet than out OF
it, and without causing so much TALK
Cleveland and Carlisle have not been wise
in their confabs with the Wall street
magnates Hanna knows what they
want without asking them, and can nave
ii done without friction. lie is as
smooth duck as You ever saw, and the
Morgans. the Carnegies, the Rothschiids
want him Secretary Of the Treasury be-
cause they know his interests are iden-
teal with theirs. 1t is the same reason
why the trusts and railroads want him.
Other men would do their bidding as
pliantly. Hanna would be more than
pliant-tool: he would be beneficiary
along with the rest of them as well as
an agent. and that would make him the
ideal Secretary OF the Treasury for the
money power.
II is believed here also that ex-Presi-
dent Harrison will so into the cabinet as
Secretary Of State. He is easily the
ahlcst and best furnished man who could
be selected. Would he consent TO serve
where he had formerly been wont to
command? Ordinarily not, but his new
wife would enjoy living in Washington
for four years and the wife Of the Sec
rotary Of State would really set the pace
for fashion. Mrs. Mckinley is very
much of an invalid and is not enamoured
of receptions, balls and the like while the
new Mrs. Harrison is anxious for that
kind If career. The ex-President is an
able international lawyer, is fond OF the
work that engages a Secretary of State,
and would manage the foreign business
so well that the President would only
have to sign his name to the documents
Mr.. Harrison would submit.
If these two places go TO these two
men, the other places can be divided out
among the fifty aspirants on a geograph-
ical basis There is not enough consensus
of opinion upon the other places upon
which to hazard even q guess.
The National Grange petitions Presi-
dent Mckinley to put practical farmer
in his Cabinet. This is a very sensible
resolution. AS the Department deals on
~ with farm topics, no other man than
a practical farmer ought to be mentioned
in connection with the position.

VOORHEES, HAS PAREsIs.
He is Totally Oblivious to his Surround
ings a Friend Says.

indianapolis, Nov. 1.-THE announce
ment is made by friends of Senator Voor-
bees that they win not ask compliment
tary vote for him from the minority in
the Legislature at its coming session,
for the reason that his faculties are so
much impaired that he would be insen-
sible TO the honor.
1t is said that he is suffering from
paresis, and that, while his physical con-
dition is not alarming, his mental condi-
ton is such that his friends have no hope
Of his recovery. Friends at Terre Haute
are not permitted to see him, and no one
but nurse, who is with him constantly,
is admitted to his presence.
Those in the confidence Of the family
say that his death is only matter Of
time, and that it is not probable that
he will ever leave his room. In the words
Of a friend. "He is dying by inches,
but is totally obliyious to his surround
ings."

Spaniard Satisfaction.
HAVANA, July 9.-The proposed duel be-
tween General Bradley L. johnson and
Senior Manuel Ampulia will not take
place, as friends of the former have inter
fered and dissuadcd the general from ac-
cepting the challenge on the ground that
it was irregular. Besides, semi official in
fluence will now in all probability prevent
Ampulia from sending his seconds to Gen
eral johnson.
The challenge was received by the gen.
eral, and in an interview with the CORE
spondent here of the Associated Press he
expressed his willingness to fight. The
general also acknowledged receiving the
challenge in an interview published in
The Discussion, though until then he
had personally denied the fact.
The General Johnson-Ampudin affair
has assumed q different aspect. La Lucha
publishes n statement to the effect that
General Johnson's remarks on the action
of Senior Ampudia in publishing his chal-
lenge in La Lucha teach n lesson to the
cx-captain in the Spanish army when he
says that letters Of that sort are not to be
left in hotel offices, but are to be sent
through respectable parties, adding: "A
very elementary matter, which it seems
! tired captain, and retired from the service
when young"
This statement of Ia Lucha is looked
upon here as being equivalent to provOk.
ing a challenge from Ampudia. General
| FitZhugh Lee is maintaining n very re-
| served attitude in the matter. The Dario
| de La Marina has published two editorials
rejecting upon the attitude of the United
States towards Cuba. In the first of these
utterances the paper maintains that Spain
is able to demand from the United States
indemnity for the alleged permitting OF
filibustering expeditions to leave the

It holds that the Spanish government
