precisely where they rt any time are
most needed"
Mr.. McCurdy makes the following
refernce to Scotch experience in branch
banking:
II he banks of Scotland are conducted
on the same principle. Each of them
may be SAID to hp present everywhere
throughout the country. | cite merely
one as an example The Union Bank of
Scotland. Limited, has Il capital paid
up, of one million pounds. surplus OF
five hundred and forty thousand pounds.
ana one hundred and thrty-pight
branches. The ten banks in Scotland
have eight hundred and eigh,y-thrpc
branches, and wherever new and lpg.-
tidaie demand arises for an institution
Of deposit and discount, new branches
spring up Immediately. Hence through
out the United Kingdom it IS impossible
that severe local pressure should be
felt in the market for money"
To the branch system of the Bank of
France, tie following striking reference
is made:
'As far as equalizing the rates of in
terest throughout Il great country is
concerned. the most remarkable ilmStra-
found in the experience of the Bank af
France. 1t now has branch in every
department of France, eighty-seven ia
all, and each of these hEanches has be-
come Il centre of its own, with subSid-
larry offices in other towns and with dis.
counting agencies of bureaus in multi
tudes of Out-of-the-way places. In this
way its benefits reach the whole body
of the people and the rate of discount
is absolutely uniform throughout
France. This rate has experienced fewer
changes in recent years than the rate
in any other market of the world"
The preceding facts present a very
remarkable body of evidence in favor of
the branch system, and demand serious
consideration at the hands of those who
are engaged in disintereSted efforts tt
secure reform of our monetary and
banking systems. Mr.. McCurdy has
rendered highly valuable service in The
elucidation of this question.

maxim well applied to Dr. Bulls

Cough Syrup on my bureau for the last
nine years. and have fouad it q certain
and safe cure for Group. I have also
found it efiicacious in extreme men,
braneous Group, and would advise all
mothers to use it, Or. Bulls Cough
Syrup costs only 25 cents, aud YOU
should bear in mind, that substitutes
simply benefit the dealers purse. In

Chapel Hill, N. c., Dec. 1S-(Special
The final examinations for the first
term are in full blast. Very few stu
dents now count themselves out of the
effort to make a grade.
The University Shakespeare Club has
just finished it's work for the first term
with a fine programme ON Marlowe as
Shakespere.
An entertaining prelude to the specia
papers was furnished in Mr.. Hairs pa
per on the Feast of the Ass and its Re
lation to the Christmas Pageant. VIZ
hope to hear all the valuable papers or
Balaam and The ASS, A, Mystery Play
survivals of the Early Religious Dram:
have many striking methods of repre-
senting the unconscious prophecies found
in heathendom, of the coming of oul
Lord. The Club will have THE Thre5
Kings" or The Magi Soon. Mr.. @. r

IN MENORIAM.

No where and among no people is
there an entire absence of love, rever-
ence, or at least respect for old land
marks.
In proportion to the age and historic
landmarks, these finer emotions of the
and manifested.
Who has not almost mourned at the
removal of some ancient house or what
remained of some fine old tree. If this
is so of inamimate objects, how much
more is it true when some old citizen,
who has been Il familiar sight for years
and years, and who seemed advanced
in life when we were young, has gone
on his last long journey.
For n time we almost expect to look
up and see him in his accustomed seat,
or walking about the streets, but the
sad word, gone, arises in the mind-and
we pass along our way.
Many of Raleighs old citizens have
recently been called away, the latest of
these being Mr.. William II. High.
Perhaps between the years 1850 and
1870 no man was better known in Wake
county, in which he was born, than WAS
whether any man came nearer being
acquainted with and known by every
man of the county in which he lived.
In noticing his death, our city papers
stated that he had filed the office of
sheriff of Wake county for fourteen
years, which statement evidences his
great popularity. This period of active
service included the years of the civil
war, ISGI-'Gz m to the times of Re
construction. Some few yraf; after the
war Sheriff High, with his wife. four
sons and three daughters, removed from
North Carolina to Oakland California,
in which State most of his children now
reside, his wife and oldest daughters
having died in that State.
The heart of the old naturally turn
to the home of their childhood, and in
1890. Sheriff High returned to Raleigh
to spend his remaining days with his
youngest daughter, the wife of our re-
spected fellow citizen, V. c. ROySter
Esq. He was always genial and fond of
humOr, of which he had n considerable
share. When a friend asked him, on
arrival here, if he expected to return
to California, his reply was quantity ex-
pressed: "Well, / don't expect to so
back in the heat of the day"
Since his return he has been in his
old age, as of yore, quiet. even tempered
and good natured, speaking evil of no
one, but kindly of all, always rejoicing
in the revival of old acquaintanceship,
and loving to talk of old "reminiscences.
He was fond of children and many
have noticed the affection he showed
for his two grandchildren. and how
much he was with them and how fond
they were of him.
Scarcely any of his friends knew he
was sick before the end came, SO short
was the fatal sickness.
Another of the ties which have hound
MS to the past has been broken, but the
kindliest recollection of our friends Will
linger with US who knew him.

 The report has been current here for a week, of an execution at the Semi noles' camp, fifty miles southwest of here. in the Glades. On Tuesday, James Jumper was in town, and with him sev- ersl of his negroes. One of them. Black Sam" said that two months ago an Indian called Tiger Cat eloped with a chiefs wife.
 The tribe rose at this. Adultery and theft are said to be capital crimes with them. The missing couple were cap- tured two weeks later. They were brought home, and after council Ia st ing two days and three nights, were doomed to death, that of being eaten by alligators. The prisoners were taken to the south end of Little Gator Key. They were stripped and tied to stakes near the waters edge, about fifty feet apart. The Indians then tied a dog between them to attract the slli- gators.
 For an entire day they were left there in the hot sun, and it was not till near sundown that the gators came out. Several of them crawled out and made for the bowling dog. He was seized and torn to pieces in moment The gators then turned their attention to the two prisoners tied before them and killed them.-Fort Lauderdale, Fla, dispatch to the Baltimore Sun.

YOUNG WOMAN STOLE A TEAM.
New Haven Owner Recovers It at z
 Windsor Stable.

 Windsor Stable.
 Windsor, July 20.-A singular case of horse stealing by a woman came to light here Monday. On Wednesday a young woman, a good looking blonde, and we'll dressed, drove into the Hotel Windsor stable yard and requested that her horse be cared for and fed. While MT. Cooper was preparing to unhitch the horse the woman left the carriage and passed out to the street. Since then nothing has been seen or heard of her. Thinking that the team might keeping the horse until Monday, tele- graphed to the maker of the carriage in Boston, and learned that the carriage was sold to M. c. Schwaner, a stable keeper on George street in New Haven. Communication with MT. Schwaner re- vealed that the woman hired the team a week ago to ride for @ couple of hours about the city. MT. Schwaner came to Windsor and discovered his team, but nothing can be learned of the where abouts of the woman.
 Mir Cooper of the hotel, finding the name of the Boston Blackboard com- pany of New Haven, and the carriage number on 1t, telegraphed the company to look up the owner. It was an easy matter for the Blackboard company to ascertain that they had sold the vehicle to Mir. Schwaner, and he was then noti- fled.
