BIGGEST WATERMELON YET.

The biggest melon yet heard of in this
State is that sent by express from Char
lotte to Mrs. Russell. 1t weighed "A
pounds, just 6 pounds less than the one
recently sent to President Mckinley
from Georgia.
1t came wrapped in dollar wheat, and
nobody knows who sent it. 1t was feet
inches in circumference; feet 6 inches
long. 1t was cut open with a sword. 1t
was perfectly ripened and of most de-
licious flavor. Mrs. Russell has saved
the seed and will next season have them
planted on her plantation in New Hano-
yer county.

Must Fire President Andrews.

Providence, R. l., June 2l.-The
decision of Brown university corpo-
ration to take President Andrews to
task for his utterances on political and
economic subjects has caused great
surprise. The cause Of such action
rests primarily with John D. Rookie
feller. The standard oil magnate
was, it is now understood, ready to
give the university $1,000, ,000, but
decided not to do SO because of Pres
ident Andrews views on free trade
and free silver.
In this connection it will be rem
embered that Rockefeller brought
about the dismissal Of a professor of
economics at Chicago university be-
cause he advocated the municipal
ownership of a gas plant in which
the Standard Oil Company was IN
tereSted

TRUST is HAPPY.
The Senate Presents the Sugar
Trust With $55,ooo,ooo Yearly.

Washington, June Ex-senator
White of California says that he re-
CARDS it as peculiar that little atten-
ton has been given the factadmitted
by Senator Allison who is in char ge
of the tariff bill that the increased
sugar rates fixed by the senate
amendments will necessarily raise
the price of the sugar to consumers
throughout the country about ST 20
a hundred pounds. Senator White
says that he pointed out the fact
that about sixty three pounds of SUI
gar per capita were consumed last
year and estimating the population
of the United States at IS, 10000 it
is very easy to figure the effect of
the net increase OF ISL 20 per hundred
pounds. Senator Whites estimate
fixed the amount at about $55, 600, 900
The differential in favor of the trust
is admittedly greater on grades of
raw sugar usually imported than The
Wilson bill, against which so much
republican criticism was levelcd.

NOTES ON HEALTH.

NO consumptive person should be per-
mitted to work in cow stables or to milk
cows.
The flesh and milk of stall-fed and
stall-contined COWS is not wholesome:
large part of it is actually tuberculous.
Tubercle in kline is disease engcndered
by confinement in close stables and
sheds.
People who value their horses also
should prohibit consumptivcs from en-
tering their stables, as the expectora-
tions of consumptivee are full of tu-
bercuous material which, drying on
the floors, soon rises with the dust in
sweepings. This dust is fatal to man
and beast.

tuberculous COWS. There are other
ways, of course, of contracting con-
sumption, but this is a very common
way. Every person who does not own

keep them under sanitary conditions,
should be careful to use none but regu-
